Further, as required by the ASTM standard, we ask that copies of previous environmental investigations and audits of the property are made available, as well as other Information related to storage, use, or release of hazardous substances or petroleum products at the site, such as environmental permits, registrations for tanks, material safety data sheets, or waste disposal records, if applicable. Data Evaluation and Report Preparation The Planning CenterJDC &E will interpret the information and data assembled from work scope task Items numbers 1 and 2 above, and will formulate conclusions regarding evidence of RECs at the site and their potential Impact on the site. We will prepare three copies of a report summarizing the results of our assessment and discussing our conclusions regarding the potential presence and impact of RECs in connection with the site, based on the work scope described above. Based on information gathered during Tasks 1 and 2, the report will answer the areas of concern related to: 1) hazardous waste, storage, disposal, or release; 2) pipelines on the properties; 3) geology and hydrogeology beneath the properties and regionally; and 4) air quality and hazardous air emissions from properties within one - quarter mile radius of the subject properties. The report will summarize the findings of the investigations and present recommendations for any additional activities, if warranted. As required by ASTM, our final report will include a statement indicating that the work was conducted consistent with the scope and limitations of the ASTM Standard, and discussing whether RECs were or were not identified In connection with the property. User - Provided Information The ASTM Standard requires disclosure In the Phase I report as to whether the user of the report has specialized knowledge about previous ownership or uses of the property that may be material to identifying RECs, or whether the user has determined that the property's Title contains environmental liens or other information related to environmental condition of the property, including engineering and institutional controls and Activity and Use Limitations, as defined by ASTM. In addition, we are required by the ASTM Standard to Inquire whether the user of the report has prior knowledge that the price of the property has been reduced for environmental related reasons. We request that you provide this Information to us for Inclusion in our report. No subsurface explorations or chemical testing of soils or groundwater will be performed during this assessment. Therefore, our conclusions regarding the evidence of RECs will be based on observations of existing visible conditions, and on our Interpretation of site history and site usage information. Further, our conclusions regarding the presence of hazardous substances and petroleum products may not be applicable to areas beneath existing structures, unless specific subsurface exploration, sampling, and/or testing information is available and reviewed by us for such areas. The ASTM E 1527 -05 Standard includes the following list of "additional issues" that are non -scope considerations outside of the scope of the ASTM Phase I practice: Asbestos - Containing Materials, Radon, Lead -Based Paint, Lead In Drinking Water, Wetlands, Regulatory Compliance, Cultural and Historic Risks, industrial Hygiene, Health and Safety, Ecological Resources, Endangered Species, Indoor Air Quality, and High Voltage Poweriines. Assessment of these items is not included in our proposed work scope. A limited assessment of the presence of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is Included in the ASTM work scope. Accordingly, our assessment of the presence of PCBs is limited to those potential sources specified in the ASTM Standard as "electrical or hydraulic equipment known or likely to contain PCBs to the extent visually and or physically observed or identified from the interview or records review. A 50 -year chain -of -title will not be provided under this scope of work. It Is, however, recommended that the District independently obtain title records to confirm the absence or presence of any environmental liens against the properties.
