Additional Property Attributes

The Subject Site had operated as a commercial dry cleaner from 1950 to around 2005. According to available sources, the Subject Site operated as Olsen Cleaners, Delp Cleaners, and Hometown Cleaners during that timeframe. A 2001 Transaction Screen report indicated a separate, dedicated boiler room was situated on the northwest corner of the building, indicating the use of steam for clothing presses and other equipment used in the dry cleaning process. IDEM records indicate the dry cleaning operations included the use of tetrachloroethene (perchloride or PCE) and the Subject Site had a status as a small quantity generator of hazardous waste, and later dates became a conditionally exempt generator.

The Phase II ESA results showed that Tetrachloroethene exceeded the IDEM groundwater HHL in the samples from SB-GW-3, SB-GW-5, and SP-GW-5 DUP.

IA VOCs
2-Hexanone exceeded the Residential Vapor Exposure HHL in the Downwind sample but was not detected in the indoor air samples. Although tetrachloroethene was detected in the indoor air it was below the Residential HHL and well below the commercial HHL.

SGss VOCs
Ethylbenzene exceeded the Residential Sub-Slab HHL in the sample from SGss-1. Tetrachloroethene exceeded the Commercial/Industrial Sub-Slab HHL in the samples from SGss-1 and SGss-2. Trichloroethene exceeded the Large Commercial/Industrial Sub-Slab HHL in the sample from SGss-2.

Conclusions:
Based on the discussion above, BCA draws the following conclusions:

Laboratory analyses of the submitted samples confirm that groundwater, sub-slab soil gas and to some extent soil on the Subject Site have been impacted by past activities of the former dry cleaner facility. Impacts to the soil include PCE at concentrations above the former IDEM RCG MTGW, but may reflect impact from the groundwater, rather than being a source to groundwater.

The groundwater at 2 of the five locations (SB-3 and SB-5) was found to be impacted by PCE. Boring SB-3 was located near the sewer lateral, and SB-5 situated in the northwest corner of the Subject Site, in the apparent downgradient direction of SB-3. The PCE impacts have migrated to the downgradient property line, could potentially have migrated off-site and have not been fully delineated.
