PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT REPORT ASSESSOR PARCELS �• 173-210-04, 173-210-05,173-210-06,AND 173-210-07 STOCKTON SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY,CALIFORNIA L EXECUTIVE SUMMARY i_ December 10,2004 This Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was performed by Condor Earth Technologies, Inc. V (Condor) at the request of Bennett Development, Inc. (Client). The assessment was performed for properties located south of East Main Street in Stockton, San Joaquin County, California.These four(one parcel and portions of three parcels)parcels are designated as Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs) 173-210- 04, 173-210-05, 173-210-06, and 173-210-07 consisting of approximately 27 acres. The Phase I ESA was performed in accordance with the guidelines set forth in Practice E 1527-00, Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process, published in May 1993 (Revised 2000) by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and in accordance with the prevailing standard of care for completing such assessments in California at this time. The purpose of the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) is to conduct an appropriate inquiry into previous ownership and uses of the property to help in partially satisfying the innocent landowner defense to Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) liability and to document those conditions discovered during the inquiry that are L, "potential environmental conditions that could materially impact the operation of the business associated with the parcel of commercial real estate" (ASTM Standard Practice E 1527-00, Section 5.5). Any exceptions to, or deletions from,this practice are noted in Section 11.0 of this report. Condor has performed a Phase I ESA in conformance with the scope and limitations of ASTM Practice E 1527-00 for APNs 173-210-04, 173-210-05, 173-210-06, and 173-210-07 in Stockton, California. The general Site area is the location of commercial, residential, and agricultural properties. The Site consists y of one parcel and the portions of three parcels that are currently fallow farmland with two irrigation wells. (� r These parcels are located south of East Main Street. Site reconnaissance, owner questionnaires, and interviews revealed the fields are agricultural and have historically been used for agricultural purposes. The assessment revealed evidence of two recognized environmental conditions in association with the Site: • The application and accumulation of pesticides on the Site properties. • The identified chromium contamination in the groundwater beneath the Site properties. L It is Condor's recommendation that the two Site irrigation wells be closed according to San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department's standards to prevent a pathway to humans from the chromium-contaminated groundwater. Condor also recommends soil sampling for pesticides and metals including total and hexavalent chromium, arsenic, and copper to evaluate the levels of these metals and residual pesticides in Site soils. 1.Terms in italics are defined by ASTM in Practice E 1527.See Glossary of Terms and Acronyms(Appendix G). n CONDOR L
