H E <br /> I PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT <br /> 4101 S. Airport Way, Stockton, CA <br /> August 2009, Page 7 of 15 <br /> 4.6 Aerial Photograph Review <br /> Historical aerial photographs were obtained from EDR and bing.com,and were reviewed <br /> for evidence of waste burial, storage of bulk petroleum or chemicals, and other potential <br /> sources of contamination.The EDR photos were taken in 1957, 1963, 1970, 1982, 1993, <br /> 1998,2002 and 2005.The bing.com composite oblique photo was taken in 2009. Copies of <br /> the photos are provided in Appendix B. <br /> The 1957 photo shows the subject property at what appears to be near the end of building <br /> construction. The facility is clearly depicted along with disturbed ground in the vicinity of <br /> the septic leach field and around the building exterior. Vehicles appear to have been <br /> parked haphazardly in what appear to be temporary parking areas.The rail spur on the <br /> subject property was in its current configuration.The southeastern two-thirds of the <br /> property and the western portion of the property were undeveloped and used for <br /> agricultural activities. The photo does not show evidence of disturbed ground,tanks, <br /> structures, or other discrete potential sources of contamination. <br /> The 1963 photo clearly shows a completed building,access road and parking lot on the <br /> subject property. The building was similar in size as the structure shown in the 1957 photo, <br /> but the loading dock appears to have been completed.No equipment was stored outside of <br /> the building.The photo does not show evidence of disturbed ground, tanks, structures, or <br /> other discrete potential sources of contamination. <br /> The 1970 photo provides a close-up view of the subject property and surrounding area. <br /> The subject property does not appear to have changed significantly from 1963, except for <br /> the addition of equipment stored in the parking area west of the building.The photo does <br /> not show evidence of disturbed ground,tanks, structures,or other discrete potential <br /> sources of contamination. <br /> The 1982 aerial photo is less detailed but shows the building on the subject property to <br /> have increased in size,including the warehouse to the north and a driveway in the <br /> northeastern part of the facility. It appears that a stormwater detention pond was added <br /> north of the facility between 1970 and 1982. The photo does not show evidence of <br /> disturbed ground, tanks, structures,or other discrete potential sources of contamination. <br /> The 1993, 1996,2002 and 2005 photos depict little change to the subject property. The <br /> photos do not show evidence of disturbed ground,tanks, structures, or other discrete <br /> potential sources of contamination. <br /> The 2009 oblique aerial photo is a composite of photographs viewing the subject property <br /> and western property boundary. Three areas of distressed vegetation and a soil pile are <br /> shown with red arrows(Appendix B).These areas were not observed on the EDR photos <br /> but the oblique aerial photo is of much high resolution than the EDR photos. <br />
