INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this memo is to request adoption of a City Council resolution approving
the Amended and Restated Environmental Covenant for the Jule Operations and
Training Center (JOTC) on Kerper Blvd.
BACKGROUND
On April 19, 1989, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pursuant to its
authority under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act of 1980, issued an Administrative Order on Consent to address
environmental contamination at a site referred to as the Dubuque Peoples Natural Gas
Site (Site), now known as the JOTC. Pursuant to that Order, the City of Dubuque
placed institutional controls by ordinance on certain parts of the JOTC property
impacted by the contamination.
On September 25, 2013, the EPA signed a Record of Decision Amendment to amend the
remedy selected in 1991 for the Peoples Natural Gas Superfund site in Dubuque, lowa.
One of the elements of the selected amended remedy was the implementation of
environmental covenants on the Site because certain soil and groundwater contamination
remains on the property. In accordance therewith, the EPA, City of Dubuque, lowa
Department of Natural Resources and lowa Department of Transportation agreed to the
Environmental Covenant and caused the covenant to be recorded in the Dubuque County
records. The administrative record for the Environmental Response Project is on file at
the offices of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region VII, 11201 Renner Blvd.,
Lenexa, Kansas 66219.
DISCUSSION
Page 1 of 4
As a condition of being able to redevelop the property into the JOTC, the EPA required
that the Environmental Covenant for the site be updated after all construction work was
completed so that the environmental covenant would reflect the most recent site
conditions. Pursuant to attached Amended and Restate Environmental Covenant, the
City of Dubuque, as the current owner of the JOTC property and the grantor of the
environmental covenant, would be agreeing to the activity and use limitations and terms
in the Amended and Restate Environmental Covenant as required by EPA, including the
following:
A. Owners of the Property shall notify all occupants or tenants or any subsequent
transferee of an interest in the Property of these Activity and Use Limitations
and this Environmental Covenant. Owners of the Property shall condition all
occupancy and tenancy on compliance with these Activity and Use Limitations
and this Environmental Covenant. The Holders identified herein have executed
this Environmental Covenant and are bound by such Activity and Use
Limitations without further notice. Failure by any occupant or tenant to comply
with these Activity and Use Limitations does not excuse compliance by the
then existing owner with these Activity and Use Limitations.
B. The Property shall not be used for any purpose other than commercial or
industrial. Such allowed use shall include a bus maintenance and storage
facility, with offices and employee comfort facilities.
C. The Property shall not be used for residential use or use where children may
be present for extended periods of time, including school or day care.
D. Except for wells authorized by the EPA or IDNR, installation and/or use of
wells for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to potable and non-
potable water supply, for human or animal consumption, irrigation, heat pumps
or sanitation, is prohibited.
E. Existing wells located on the Property shall not be abandoned or closed
without the approval of the EPA or IDNR.
F. Unless prior approval is given by EPA, any new construction of enclosed
buildings at the Property must prevent, or include remedial systems to control
and/or abate vapor intrusion of Contaminants of Concern, as listed on Exhibit
B, into any such new construction at the Property, if necessary for compliance
with published standards for protectiveness of human health and the
environment and appropriate for the intended use of the buildings. Such
remedial systems must be properly operated and maintained.
G. Any person undertaking excavation or construction activities that may disturb
soil on the Property at a depth of more than six feet below the surtace grade or
at any depth in the area labeled as "buried contaminated soil extents" on the
three (3) maps and figures attached hereto at Exhibit C, shall provide no less
Page 2 of 4
than thirty (30) days advance written notice thereof to EPA and Holder. Such
excavation or construction shall not proceed without prior written approval by
the Agency, unless the excavation or construction is part of an Environmental
Response Project that has been approved by the Agency. Such prior notice
and approval is not required for emergency circumstances, in which case
notice must be given as soon as possible.
H. If during the time of their ownership, tenancy or occupancy, the owner, tenant,
or occupant observes or is given notice that some other party, including but
not limited to a utility easement holder, is, without EPA approval, undertaking
either emergency or non-emergency excavation or construction activities
subject to Agency approval under paragraph 7(g) said owners, tenants, or
occupants shall (i) promptly provide a copy to such other party engaged in
such activities of these Activity and Use Limitations; (ii) promptly notify such
other party that all appropriate and necessary assessments and precautions
should be taken prior to such activities, including but not limited to employee
protection and hazardous substance management; (iii) promptly notify EPA of
the other party's activity or planned activity and contact information for such
other party, if known; and (iv) promptly notify such other party that the
materials generated at or from the excavation or construction activities must
be properly managed as may be required by law, making all appropriate and
necessary assessment prior to such management.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the
Amended and Restated Environmental Covenant for the JOTC property.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution approving the Amended
and Restated Environmental Covenant for the Jule Operations and Training Center

AMENDED AND RESTATED
ENVIRONMENTAL COVENANT
Whereas, the signatories hereto entered into an Environmental Covenant recorded on
September 28, 2015 in Book 2015 at Page 12514 of the county records (the "Prior Covenant")
for the purpose of subjecting the property described below, or a portion thereof, to certain
activity and use limitations in accordance with the terms and conditions specified therein; and
Whereas, the signatories hereto now desire to amend, restate, and replace the Prior
Covenant with this Amended and Restated Environmental Covenant (this "Environmental
Covenant") in order to amend Section 5(g) concerning the areas and depths to which excavation
work can be done on the Property; and
Whereas, this Environmental Covenant is established and executed pursuant to Iowa
Code Chapter 455I, entitled Uniform Environmental Covenants Act.
Now, therefore, the signatories hereto have entered into this Environmental Covenant for
the purpose of subjecting the property described below, or a portion thereof, to certain activity
and use limitations in accordance with the terms and conditions specified herein.
1. The Property. The City of Dubuque, Iowa, is the sole fee simple title owner of that
real property legally described in Exhibit A hereto and incorporated herein, with a local address
of 949 Kerper Boulevard in Dubuque, Dubuque County, Iowa (hereinafter "Property").
2. Background. On April 19, 1989, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(hereinafter "EPA" or "Agency"), pursuant to its authority under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 ("CERCLA"), issued an
Administrative Order on Consent to address environmental contamination at a site referred to as
the Dubuque Peoples Natural Gas Site ("Site"). Pursuant to that order, the City of Dubuque
placed institutional controls ("Deed Restriction") on certain of its real property impacted by the
contamination, which instrument was recorded as Instrument No. 4730-91 with the Dubuque
County Recorder's office. Subsequently, EPA and various parties agreed to implement a remedy
for the Site (removal and remedial actions collectively "Environmental Response Project"). On
September 25, 2013, EPA issued an Amendment to the Record of Decision, which amended the
remedy for the Site to include, in part, placement of an environmental covenant on the Site
because certain soil and groundwater contamination remains on the Property. In accordance
therewith, on September 28, 2015, the City of Dubuque caused the Prior Covenant to be recorded
in Book 2015 at Page 12514 of the county records. The administrative record for the
Environmental Response Project is on file at the offices of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, Region VII, 11201 Renner Blvd., Lenexa, Kansas 66219.
3. Reopening. The signatories acknowledge that failure of the activity and use
limitations to serve their intended purpose including the prevention of exposure to contamination
could result in the Agency reopening its review and regulation of the contaminant condition on
the Property as may be allowed by applicable law.

Environmental Covenant and as provided in Iowa Code § 455I:
