P REPORT (June 20,2003) LOCKEFORD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL EXPANSION The Winn family installed the structure's current concrete slab floor and paved the remainder of the parcel in the 1980s. They purchased the remainder of the Site within the last few years. According to Russell Winn, up until the late 1980s, the Site received rail traffic along the railroad tracks that ran through the western and northern parcel. The railroad tracks and much of the ballast rock were removed from the Site approximately in the late 1990s. 3.1.5 Business/Manufacturing Activities Based on available information, a grain warehouse, a brick making business, and a furniture making businesses previously operated on the southern parcel of the Site. Currently, the entire Site is used as the headquarters of a trucking company. 3.2 SURROUNDING LAND USES 3.2.1 Nearby Properties and Land Uses The Site is located in the unincorporated community of Lockeford, which is surrounded by agricultural land, dominated by vineyards and orchards, intermixed with rural and semi-rural residences. Land uses for properties adjacent to the Site are noted on Figure 2 and include an elementary school, two residences (one including a small vineyard), a larger vineyard, a church, and two unpaved parking areas. Within about 1/a mile north of the Site is the "downtown" commercial area of Lockeford, an area a few blocks long of mixed retail businesses. A residential area of a few hundred residents surrounds this commercial area. A small area of agriculture-related light industry is located approximately 1/2 mile west of the Site, along Locke Road. 3.2.2 Regulatory Status of Off-Site Properties As part of the Phase I ESA, NOA performed a review of selected regulatory agency databases for documented environmental concerns at off-site properties with the potential to impact the Site. For this PEA, URS verified the review, as contained in the Environmental Data Resources Inc. report submitted in Appendix D of the Phase I ESA report [NOA, 2002]. The review found no off-site environmental concerns that appear likely to have impacted the Site. 3.3 HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE/WASTE MANAGEMENT INFORMATION 3.3.1 Business/Manufacturing Activities As discussed above in Section 3.1.4, the Site's structure was used as a grain warehouse from the late 1800s until the 1930s and then for brick making and furniture making from the 1930s until the 1970s when the Winn family acquired the southern parcel and began using it as the headquarters of their trucking company. 3-2 URS CORPORATION PAPEA Lockeford\Report\Lockeford Report Rev.doc
