The Phase I identified the site as a developed site with an approximate 5,000 square foot two-story building used for storage. The site currently does not have an operating business. The owner stores collected antique furniture, wood floor planks, doors, wall paper, paint, and other miscellaneous items and stores them on both floors. RECs identified were: Historical operations of the site as a vulcanizing facility, auto painting shop, possible auto repair shop, and dental office with an x-ray machine and corresponding film development. Gasoline tanks located in Main Street approximately 50 and 75 feet east and southeast of the site, respectively, in an apparent topographic up to cross gradient position from the site. Limited visual observations for asbestos were conducted and were restricted to readily visible and accessible building materials. Suspect ACM included: Drywall and joint compound First Floor Non-friable; Floor tiles First Floor Friable; Carpet and tile mastic First Floor Non-friable; Suspended ceiling tiles First Floor Friable; Roofing materials Entire Building Non-friable; Baseboard mastic First Floor Non-friable; Plaster on walls Second Floor Friable. An ACM survey is recommended. The following suspect LBP was observed on the interior of the site building: painted interior drywalls, doors, door frames, frames, shelves, cabinets, and dental equipment. The observed materials were generally in poor condition. A LBP survey is recommended. The historical use of the site as a vulcanizing facility, auto painting shop, possible auto repair shop, and dental office with an x-ray machine and corresponding film development plus potential off site migration from gasoline tanks represent RECs. Potential ACM and LBP RECs also exist. Terracon recommends a subsurface investigation to assess if the site has been impacted from the above listed RECs. During the Phase II three soil borings were advanced for continuous sampling and two temporary PVC casings were installed for collection of groundwater samples and limited assessment of certain hydrogeological parameters such as depth to groundwater and hydraulic gradient. Soil and groundwater samples were collected, screened and laboratory tested. The results of the Phase II indicate: Soil borings appear to be collected through the concrete pads. Sampling was completed in the atrium (B-1), near the dental equipment (B-2) and at the north east side of the building (B-3). Qualitative indicators of potential environmental impacts (e.g., staining, odors) were not noted during soil boring advancement VOCs-Laboratory analysis of soil samples from soil borings B-1 (2-3) and (4-4.5), B-2 (2-3) and (4.5-5), and B-3 (0.5-3) and (5-6.5) indicated concentrations of acetone and 2-butanone (MEK) but below the MRBCA DTLs. TPHs-Laboratory analysis of soil samples from soil borings B-1 (4-4.5), B-2 (-3) and (4.5-5), and B-3 (0.5-3) and (5-6.5) indicated concentrations of TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO/ORO but below the MRBCA DTLs. PAHs-Laboratory analysis of soil samples from soil borings B-1, B-2, and B-3 indicate concentrations of various PAHs but below the MRBCA DTLs. The Phase II assessment indicated shallow bedrock beneath the site, no encountered groundwater, and all reported soil concentrations were below MRBCA DTLs. Based on this information, no further investigation is required. No cleanup is required for soil, based on Phase II results however without LBP and ACM surveys it is unknown whether any building materials cleanup is required.
Former Use: The site is located at 204-206 North Main Street in Butler, Bates County, Missouri within an area within a commercial setting. The site is developed with an approximate 5,000 square foot two-story building used for storage. The site currently does not have an operating business. The owner stores collected antique furniture, wood floor planks, doors, wall paper, paint, and other miscellaneous items and stores them on both floors. Based on a review of the hist
