Additional Property Attributes

A Phase II ESA and hazardous building materials survey were performed by EPA under the START V Contract 68HE0519D0005, Task Order 68HE0519F0107, TOLINF0107_0001BB01. Former Use: The property was originally developed as farm land and in the 1940s as a salvage yard which also sold auto parts and automobiles. The property was occupied by East Jordan Auto Parts, a scrap metal salvage yard until recently. The use of diesel fuel, various grades of oils, antifreeze and other vehicle maintenance fluids were observed on the property. Reportedly, used oil was taken off-site, used anti-freeze was reused, car batteries were recycled off-site and Freon from old refrigerators was collected and subsequently destroyed off-site. An area of stained soil beneath a vehicle draining operation was observed in the northeastern portion of the salvage yard. Additional areas of soil staining, discolored soils from metal, and debris to include glass, plastic and metal were observed on the property during a Phase I ESA in 2016. In addition to the soil staining and debris, two above ground storage tanks (AST) were observed on the property during a Phase I ESA in 2019. A Phase II ESA was performed in 2019 and identified the site as a "Facility" under Michigan rules. Xylenes and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene were detected in one soil sample collected from a depth of 2 feet at concentrations exceeding the Part 201 Generic cleanup Criteria and Screening Levels for GSI Protection. START completed a Phase II ESA and a hazardous building materials survey. The Phase II ESA used Incremental Sampling Methodology to assess the shallow soil at the site. 217 soil borings were completed to a total depth of 2 feet. The site was divided up into 7 decision units based on the previous site use. A total of 7 soil samples were submitted for laboratory analysis from the 7 decision units (DU). Two composite samples were collected from a large soil stockpile at the site and submitted for laboratory analysis. Laboratory analytical results indicated that metals concentrations exceeded the groundwater surface water interface protection criteria. Metals and tetrachloroethene exceeded the residential and nonresidential drinking water protection criteria. Lead and total polychlorinated biphenyls exceeded the residential direct contact criteria in the soil stockpile. Lead exceeded residential direct contact criteria in one decision unit (DU#5). Because the use of the site is as a school parking lot, residential criteria were applied. The recommendations for cleanup included: removal of the soil stockpile for proper disposal at a licensed non-hazardous waste landfill and installation of an engineered barrier over DU #5. Mercury and some VOCs exceed the Recommended Interim Action Screening Levels for soil contaminant volatilization to indoor air. Thus, any future buildings for occupancy at the site should evaluate vapor intrusion and include a building control technology, if required. The hazardous building materials survey was performed and asbestos containing materials (ACM) and lead-based paint were identified. Universal wastes were also identified at the site. These building materials require proper abatement prior to demolition or renovation of the on-site structures. An order-of-magnitude cost estimate for abatement of regulated building materials was provided for the stakeholder.
