• Review of reasonably ascertainable state and federal regulatory records related to on-site activities and to evident off-site activities to identify potential sources of petroleum or hazardous substance contamination to the subject property.

• Review of reasonably ascertainable historical information to assess for potential on-site and off-site sources of petroleum or hazardous substance contamination to the subject property.

• Review of reasonably ascertainable local records related to historical subject property ownership, usage, and development. This includes obtaining information from local environmental authorities to identify complaints, violations, citations, inspections, environmental liens, AULs, or institutional and engineering controls related to the subject property.

• Review of reasonably ascertainable documents and other resources for the subject property and vicinity to evaluate current and historical development and renovation activities.

• Visual assessment for suspect Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) containing equipment, e.g., transformers, elevators. Please note, this scope of work does not include an evaluation for or testing of suspect PCBs in building materials such as caulking, mastic/adhesives, oil-based paints, coatings, and sealants. Currently, there are no regulatory requirements to test in place building materials for the presence of PCBs. Although testing is not required for in place materials, owners are required to know the content of the waste streams that they generate and potentially sign waste profiles prior to disposal facility acceptance. Therefore, if renovation or demolition activities are to be conducted at the subject property that will result in the generation of demolition debris, a contractor or waste disposal facility may request certification of knowledge of the waste stream or testing to determine if the material(s) contain PCBs for proper handling and disposal purposes.
