Additional Property Attributes

The subject property contains two buildings. One is a former school building with a gymnasium that is still used by the school district for sports practice. The second building is a bus barn that is used to maintain school vehicles and buses. A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) identified the Utica Former Grain Storage Site/USDA Grain Bin NE-313 approximately 0.257 mile north-northwest of the subject property. Contaminants at the grain bin site include carbon tetrachloride and chloroform in the underlying groundwater and soil. This poses a Recognized Environmental Condition (REC) and Vapor Encroachment Concern (VEC) to the subject property. The Phase I ESA also identified a former leaking underground storage tank (LUST) site at the southwest corner of D Street and Hwy 34/501 approximately .321 mile north-northeast of the subject property. Based on confirmed soil contamination and the use/installation of a soil vapor extraction system at the LUST site, the LUST site also poses a REC and VEC to the subject property. A Phase II ESA is recommended to confirm if these facilities have impacted the environmental integrity of the subject property and caused a vapor intrusion concern to future occupants. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM), lead-based paint (LBP), and mold Surveys were completed concurrent with the Phase I ESA. Regulated ACM was identified in floor tile and door and window caulk in the school building. Additionally, lighting fixtures in the kitchen and roofing materials are assumed to be ACM. Drywall joint compound was identified as ACM in the bus barn. All regulated ACM must be property removed and disposed of prior to any redevelopment or demolition that would disturb the materials. No lead-based paint was identified in the bus barn. Approximately 1,169 square feet and 50 linear feet of surfaces in the school building were finished with LBP, as well as 224 brackets and one door. If any future renovations will damage/disturb the LBP and cause an exposure risk to future occupants, the LBP must be removed or encapsulated. Results from laboratory analyses of air samples indicated the total airborne mold spore count within the school building was higher that the total spore count in the outdoor control sample. Additionally, there were mold spore species present within the school building that were not detected in the outdoor control sample. This indicates a mold spore source is within the building. Further investigation or remediation regarding mold in the boiler room is recommended. Mold spore species were also detected in the bus barn building that were not detected in the outdoor control sample; however, no obvious signs of water damage or intrusion were identified in the bus barn.
