At the time of the reconnaissance, the Property consisted of approximately 0.4 acres of land developed with an approximately 24,000 square foot, two story commercial building. The remainder of the Property was developed with concrete sidewalk. Surrounding area uses included a public library, banks, and local government offices. This assessment has revealed no evidence of recognized environmental conditions in connection with the Property except for the following: � Historical use of the Property as an automotive repair shop, filling station, and commercial printer and the potential for environmental impact from unreported and/or undetected releases of hazardous substances and/or petroleum products related to the historical operations represents a REC in connection with the Property (Section 5.4.2). As discussed in Section 5.1, a Phase II ESA was conducted on the Property to determine if the historical operations had impacted the Property; � The reported presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and metals at concentrations that exceed applicable Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) Remediation Closure Guide (RCG) Screening levels in soil, groundwater, and/or soil gas on the Property (Section 5.1 and 6.3.6); and � The potential for environmental impact from the unreported and/or undetected migration of hazardous substances and/or petroleum products associated with the newspaper printing operation and gasoline USTs located to the north, northeast and northwest of the Property (Sections 5.1, and 5.4.3).
