Additional Property Attributes

The site contains two former grain silos. The western portion of the site is developed with an eleven-story 1,094 square- foot (SF) grain structure, which contains concrete elevators, a silo, and offices, while the eastern portion of the site is developed with a thirteen-story 3,510 SF grain structure, which is in poor condition. A 2001 Phase I site assessment identified 3 on-site recognized environmental conditions(RECs): 1) the historical use as a grain warehouse, 2) the presence of an aboveground storage tank (AST) on site between 1933 and 1979; and 3) abandoned electrical equipment found in the structures.

A 2005 Phase II ESA documents the collection and chemical analysis of soil sample from five borings located in the area of the current structures. Results found that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were below detection levels with one exception. Benzo(a)pyrene was present in one soil sample in concentrations above the Missouri Risk-Based Corrective Action (MRBCA) default target levels. Only one soil sample was collected on the west and down gradient side of the AST was analyzed for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Results were below detection limits. No groundwater samples were collected. In addition, limited sampling was conducted along the railroad tracks. Note that the analysis did not include pesticides/herbicides.

In January 2022, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment completed by Environmental Works Inc., found that the former AST still represented a REC with the potential for vapor intrusion and recommended additional investigation of the area of and down gradient of the former AST. Anticipated future use are plans to develop mixed use commercial and retail with a restaurant and office space for lease.

No asbestos-containing materials (ACM) were identified in the samples of the suspect ACM and no suspect materials were assumed to be asbestos-containing. One sample of red paint on the interior metal stairs on the 10th floor-east silo (2.2% by weight) exceeded the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency lead-based paint threshold of 0.5% by weight.
A visual Hazardous Materials Assessment was performed during the Phase I Assessment. Interior light fixtures did not contain a "No PCB" label and therefore, the ballasts in the on-site buildings are presumed to be Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB) containing. PCBs were not detected in the surface or subsurface soil samples.
Pesticides and herbicides were either not detected or below their respective Default Target Levels (DTLs) in the soil and groundwater samples.
In surface and subsurface soil samples naphthalene and 1,2,3-trichloropropane were detected above the DTLs; however, the concentrations were less than the residential RBTLs. In surface soil benzo(a)pyrene and dibenzo(a,h) anthracene both exceed their respective DTLs and residential RBTL.Various metals were present in concentrations exceeding the lab reporting limits in each of the surface and subsurface soil samples. Lead exceeded the DTL; however, the concentrations are less than background concentrations. Cadmium exceeded the DTL but not the residential Risk-Based Target Levels (RBTLs) at boring B-2. Arsenic in surface soil exceeded the DTL at locations B-1, B-4, and B-5. The surface soil at B-5 also exceeds the non-residential RBTL.
Arsenic and lead were detected above their respective DTL in the groundwater sample from temporary well 4.
In the surface soil samples methylene chloride was present above the DTL; however, the concentration was less than the residential RBTL. Methylene chloride is a known potential lab contaminant and as such, may not actually be present in the soil.
Total petroleum hydrocarbons-Gasoline Range Organic (GRO), Diesel Range Organic (DRO), and Oil Range Organics (ORO) were either not detected in concentrations above the lab reporting limits or were below the DTLs in the surface and subsurface soil samples. TPH-GRO was
Commercial (.19)
