Additional Property Attributes

The Subject Property was originally developed as an armory in the early 1800s and has since been used for manufacturing of numerous products including firearms, ammunition, agricultural equipment, bicycles, steam cars, typewriters, sewing machines, and cash registers. Numerous historical areas of concern (including various manufacturing operations, petroleum and chemical storage, coal storage, electrical transformers, gun powder houses, a railroad spur, and historic fill) were identified.

Shallow soils at the Site generally consist of varying depths of fill materials (approximately 0 to 35
feet below grade [ft bg]) characterized by varying amounts of brick, cinders, slag, concrete and/or
wood fragments in a matrix of fine to medium sand and gravel. Fill thickness was observed to be
greatest on the northern portion of the Site (Parcel B and Parcel C). Fill material and native soils are
depicted in cross sections developed from boring logs in Figures 3, 4 and 5. In 22 of the 57 samples
collected and analyzed, fill materials were found to contain arsenic, copper, lead, and nickel at
elevated concentrations, some higher than typical background levels, as defined in NYSDEC CP-51
Soil Cleanup Guidance and NYSDEC DER-10 Technical Guidance for Site Investigation and
Remediation. There is no known use of these metals on the site and so these elevated levels of
metals are considered to be attributable to the quality of the fill materials that were historically
imported onto the property when it was developed.
Site soil sampling and analysis also identified low levels of petroleum volatile organic compounds
and semivolatile organic compounds, likely from historic site spills when petroleum fuels and
lubricants were stored and used on th
