Additional Property Attributes

The Phase II ESA identified the following: Range 1 Soil: Thirteen (13) PAHs and five (5) RCRA metals detected; however concentrations of all reported RCRA metals and PAHs below applicable SWSs. Range 2 Soil: Six (6) PAHs and five (5) RCRA metals detected and all detected concentrations are reported below applicable SWSs. Groundwater: One (1) TEH, seven (7) VOCs, and two (2) fertilizer compound detected above laboratory reporting limits or reported at non-detect values that exceed applicable SWSs in the collected groundwater samples. Four (4) VOCs and one (1) fertilizer compound below applicable SWSs. Diesel and ammonia were detected at concentrations above applicable SWSs and 1,2-dibromo-3- chloropropane, 1,2-dibromoethane, and 1,2,3-trichloropropane reported as non-detect values above applicable SWSs. Vapor Intrusion: Seven (7) VOCs detected in groundwater are sufficiently volatile and sufficiently toxic to present a vapor intrusion risk. Groundwater results for six (6) of the compounds evaluated using the Johnson and Ettinger Vapor Intrusion Model for Forward Calculation of Indoor Air Concentration and the IDNR Cumulative Risk Calculator. One (1) compound is not available in the Johnson & Ettinger Vapor Model and as such it was not included in this calculation. The calculated results for this media indicate that vapor intrusion alone does not pose a risk on this site. Cumulative Risk Evaluation: Calculated non-cancer risk for a site resident, site worker, and construction worker and cancer risk for a site worker and construction worker are acceptable for applicable exposure pathways. The cancer risk for a site resident is unacceptable for the groundwater exposure pathway. These risk assessment results considered redevelopment on the subject property for a slab-on-grade building. The City of Dubuque has an ordinance (Section No. 16-11-20) that prevents the installation of private wells unless public water is not available. This requires permit approval by the County's Health Department. Further, no wells may be installed within 500 feet of a LUST site. Qualified Environmental Professional (QEP) recommended that the findings of this report be provided to the City of Dubuque's Water Department for their records. QEP also recommended notifying the County's Health Department of the groundwater results to prevent the installation of new wells on the subject property or on adjacent properties. This action will sever the groundwater ingestion pathway for the subject property. Further, redevelopment plans should take into consideration the unacceptable risk determination for site residents exposure to groundwater. Any site feature which would comingle surface water with groundwater (such as a detention pond or wetland) should be effectively engineered to prevent exposure to groundwater contamination. QEP recommended that this report should be provided to the IDNR for guidance on what actions will be required as a result of the observed contamination in order for the subject property to be redeveloped as desired.

Former Use: Available historical documents listed the property as a bulk oil facility from at least 1923-1992. Sanborn maps dated 1950 and 1970 depict an oil pump house, auto garage, filling and warehouse building that contained a gasoline room, and approximately twenty-four (24) ASTs ranging in capacity from 10,000-12,000 gallons (some labeled as fuel oil) all served by a railroad siding. Further, aerial photographs depict numerous ASTs on the parcel from the 1950s-2002. The property currently is used for office space, warehousing, and a water separation facility associated with Newt Marine's operations.
