spirits,hydraulic oil,and zinc-oxide paint were observed along with three 5-gallon containers <br /> of gasoline, and various small containers of paint and spray paints. The storage area showed <br /> no evidence of significant releases. <br /> • The principal manufacturing operations of American Modular Systems takes place in <br /> Building C and consists mostly of welding steel frames.Two cutting saws utilize cutting oils. <br /> Several five-gallon buckets of oil and some minor staining were observed around the base <br /> of the units. Spray painting of the frames is performed on bare ground to the east of Building <br /> C, adjacent to the storm water retention pond. Approximately five 55-gallon drums of <br /> Aquatek waterborne red oxide primer were in use and another 13 drums of new Aquatek <br /> paint were stored near the southern end of the building. Red paint covered the ground in the <br /> painting area. One unlabeled drum in the drum storage area appeared to be used for waste <br /> oil. Approximately one dozen 5-gallon containers of water soluble oil were stored in <br /> mechanic's office on the southern end of the building. Building B was a mostly vacant <br /> storage area. Building F is a truck repair shop(only half of this building was accessible). <br /> • Minor amounts of water-based oil are utilized by Innovative Steel Systems for cutting metal <br /> sheets. Truck maintenance is performed in the north end of Building E. One solvents parts <br /> washers and several drums of oil were observed in this area. No significant staining was <br /> observed. <br /> • Only one small (30-gallon)drum of waste oil was observed at the Super Soil site,which has <br /> only been in operation for the past two months. <br /> 4.2.2 Underground/Aboveeround Storage Tanks <br /> Evidence of underground storage tanks(e.g.,fill ports or vent pipes)was not observed at the <br /> subject property during the site reconnaissance. The following aboveground storage tanks(ASTs) <br /> were observed: <br /> • One 1,000-gallon AST and one 250-gallon diesel AST are located at the Super Soil facility <br /> for fueling the front-end loader. The tanks are installed within double containment and no <br /> evidence of releases were observed. The tanks are new, as the facility only began operation <br /> two months ago. <br /> • One approximately 500-gallon AST is located on a riser along the northern property <br /> boundary near the middle of the site. The AST appeared to be empty or mostly-empty and <br /> no longer utilized.The contents or former contents is unknown. Based on conversations with <br /> the property owner, the tank may have been brought on-site by a grading or construction <br /> contractor and likely contained diesel fuel. Some staining was observed on the soil beneath <br /> R:\MN\98JCM.013 11 <br /> DAMES&MOORE <br />
