REGULATORY RECORDS REVIEW

VERTEX obtained a regulatory database report as specified in Section 12.0. Review of databases and files from federal, state, and local environmental regulatory agencies was used to identify use, generation, storage, treatment, or disposal of hazardous substances and petroleum products, or release incidents of such materials that might have impacted the subject property. The databases discussed in the following sections address ASTM requirements. Additional federal and state databases may have also been reviewed, and if so, are included in the discussion below. A copy of the database report is included in Appendix G. VERTEX’s review of these listings assessed the potential for soil, groundwater, and/or soil vapor impacts to the subject property from on-site listings or listings at surrounding facilities, considering such factors as the assumed groundwater depth and flow direction, regulatory status, distance from the subject property, and other information reported by the regulatory database(s) and/or other sources of information. In addition to the regulatory databases, EDR maintains proprietary databases of historical auto stations, dry cleaners, and manufactured gas plants. These databases are based on aggregation of historical resource data and are not produced by local, state or federal agencies. As such, VERTEX reviews these databases as a part of the historical resource review and includes information from these listings where appropriate. The database report includes an orphan summary. This summary identifies facilities that are listed on one of the above-referenced databases or lists but do not include complete or accurate geographic data. Consequently, EDR was unable to map the facilities in relation to the subject property. VERTEX reviewed the orphan summary prior to visiting the subject property and surrounding properties. Orphan properties located within ASTM search distances of the subject property (if any) were incorporated into VERTEX’s review.
