Surface &Subsurface Contamination Report Page 14 <br /> Sandhu Farms <br /> Project No. 655.1 <br /> August 15, 2012 <br /> The Property was identified as the site of an exploratory natural gas well drilled <br /> by Mobil Oil E&P. The well was abandoned as a dry hole. No other listings <br /> identified the Property. <br /> No adjacent parcels were identified in the EDR database report except for three <br /> other exploratory gas wells nearby to the north. All were abandoned as dry <br /> holes. Diaz Farms at 27057 and 27041 Bird Road produced and disposed of <br /> hazardous waste in 2002. The facility also operated a small underground <br /> gasoline tank. Sasaki Farms at 27706 Bird Road also operated an underground <br /> gasoline tank that was closed. <br /> The US Army Tracy Defense Depot is about a mile west of Bird Road. This <br /> facility is identified in a number of databases, most significantly in the NPL <br /> database. This listing is the National Priority List, meaning that the site is on <br /> the federal list of EPA "Superfund" cleanup sites. The facility is engaged in <br /> producing, treating, and disposing of hazardous and acutely hazardous wastes. <br /> The wastes include petroleum products, solvents, pesticides and hazardous <br /> heavy metals. Since 1942, all of these materials have impacted the soil, <br /> primarily through unlined treatment ponds and pits. Most of the material has <br /> been confined to the soil, however chlorinated solvents have affected the <br /> groundwater. <br /> No other sites within a mile of the Property were identified. <br /> Based on the results of the EDR report, it was not deemed necessary to further <br /> investigate off-site facilities except the Tracy Defense Depot. <br /> 3.2 State Records Regarding Tracy Defense Depot <br /> Based on information obtained from the State's Envirostor website <br /> htti)://www.envirostor.dtsc.ca.gov/, the contaminated soil above the saturated zone has been <br /> adequately mitigated. Based on information obtained from the State's GeoTracker website <br /> htti):Hp,eotracker.swrcb.ca.gov/, the groundwater remains impacted by solvents, primarily <br /> perchlorethane (PCE). A recent summary from March of 2012 of groundwater conditions <br /> prepared by the State Regional Water Quality Control Board (attached in Appendix E) <br /> indicated that the contaminants have migrated north easterly with the direction of <br /> groundwater flow, but have not approached the subject Property. <br /> 2937 Veneman Ave.,#B240 Geo-Phase Environmental Inc.
