Institutional and Engineering Controls

No
Yes
Other SSD system is in place
GRO was detected in groundwater samples from temporary wells at concentrations exceeding the DEQ's groundwater in excavation RBC. A common method to mitigate the groundwater in excavation exposure pathway is to use engineering controls during future construction to minimize exposure to contaminants in groundwater. This can be facilitated through completion of an equitable easement and servitude (EES) in conjunction with a no further action letter from DEQ. The EES would include information regarding Property environmental conditions, and a requirement that engineering controls be implemented in any excavations containing groundwater. The EES is recorded with the Property deed to ensure that all future owners of the Property are aware of this requirement.

Additional Property Attributes

The 0.15-acre Property consists of tax lot 17-03-35-32-04200 and is located at the northwest corner of the intersection of Main Street and Mill Street in Springfield, Oregon. Surrounding properties include vacant land to the north, south and (across Main Street) west, and mixed commercial properties to the east (across Mill Street). Island Park and the Willamette River are located a few hundred feet to the west. The Property is zoned for mixed-use commercial (MUC) use. According to historical records, the Property was initially developed as a farm in the early 1900s. A portion of the building currently located on the Property was built in 1925 as an automotive repair shop and gasoline service station. The building was sub-sequentially expanded to its current size of 2,601 square feet by the addition of three service bays in the 1940s or 1950s. Retail gasoline sales were discontinued in 1988 when the USTs were removed. Currently, the automotive repair business (Norm�s Auto) is the only operation on the Property. Phase I ESA identified RECs and VECs related to the Property: 1) The Property's use as an automotive repair facility since 1925 and retail sales of gasoline at the Property until 1988 have a potential for residual subsurface contaminants. USTs were removed in 1998, and the Oregon DEQ issued an NFA in 2003 for the petroleum release discovered during UST removal. However, this NFA was issued prior to the publication of the 2010 DEQ guidance regarding vapor intrusion. Previous Phase II ESAs completed at the Property in 2002 and 2018 did not adequately address the vapor intrusion pathway. In addition, there is documented residual contamination in soil and groundwater as documented in previous Property investigations; 2) During the Phase I site visit, containers of new and used oil were stored inside the building in a room with a floor drain. Heavy oil staining was observed around the floor drain, and on the grate covering the floor drain; 3) Two subgrade hydraulic lifts are present inside the building. According to the Property owner, these lifts have been out of service since the 1980s. These out of service lifts should be properly abandoned in accordance with Oregon DEQ guidelines; and, 4) Historical records indicate that past uses of the property located at 111 Main Street included a tire services business, automotive repair and glass company. This address is in a hydrogeologic cross-gradient position relative to the Property, and there is a potential for contamination associated with these historical operations. Phase II samplings and investigations found that 1) lead was detected in a soil sample, exceeding the applicable DEQ occupational/construction worker/excavation worker direct contact RBC, 2) GRO was detected in groundwater samples at concentrations exceeding the DEQ's groundwater in excavation RBC. A cleanup of lead impacted soils and EES for groundwater are recommended. Cleanup and a supplement Phase II ESA are underway.
