3.0 HISTORICAL REVIEW OF SITE AND VICINITY According to historical sources dating back to 1957, the current subject property building was constructed in the late 1950s or early 1960s for use as commercial condominiums. Information regarding historical occupants is limited prior to 1986. However, the key site manager for the subject property, Mr. Tony Azevedo, reports that no industrial operations have taken place on the property. A printing operation was present on the subject property circa 1984 to 1997, and based on reported materials used and the relatively short duration of occupancy (13 years), is not .. expected to represent a significant environmental concern. Prior to the construction of the current building, the property was utilized as agricultural land. There is a potential that agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers, were used onsite. The entire area of the subject property is either paved over or covered by improvements that make direct contact with any potential remaining concentrations in the soil unlikely. Furthermore, the subject property is developed and used for commercial/light industrial purposes and thus no further action related to the former agricultural use of the subject property is warranted at this time. If redevelopment of the subject property is planned for residential use, the owner/user of the report should contact the local planning department to determine whether sampling relating to the former agricultural use of the subject property is required. 3.1 Aerial Photograph Review On October 9, 2007 and March 31, 2004, AEI Consultants reviewed aerial photographs of the subject property and surrounding area. Aerial photographs were reviewed for the following years: Date: 1957 Date: 1963 Scale: 1"= 555' Scale: 1"= 555' Date: 1970 Date: 1982 / Scale: 1"= 333' Scale: 1"= 690' /2 ) Date: 1993 Date: 1998 Scale: 1"= 666' Scale: 1"= 666' Date: 2002 Scale: F'= 1000' In the 1957 aerial photograph, the central portion of the subject property appears as part of a larger orchard while the northern and southern portions of the subject property appear as agricultural or vacant land. The adjacent properties to the south, east, north, and southwest beyond dirt roads are utilized as agricultural land as well. The adjacent properties to the .,, northwest of the subject property are occupied by residences. Phase I Environmental Site Assessment AEI Project No.274968 October 11,2007 Page Z
