LNovember 22,2005 NOA Project Number: E05148A L3.4 Past Off-Site Sources of Contamination L No above-or below-ground potential or known sources of contamination to the subject property were identified from past uses of surrounding properties,except for the following: I L • Surrounding properties have been used for agriculture in the past;agricultural chemicals may 2 have been applied to these properties. • A nearby property to the west of Henry Road has been a dairy since at least 1963. Dairies have L been known to cause elevated levels of nitrate and other chemicals in groundwater. L3.5 Current Off-Site Sources of Contamination No above-or below-ground potential or known sources of contamination to the subject property were Lidentified from current uses of the surrounding properties, except for the following: 2� • Surrounding properties are used for agriculture;agricultural chemicals may be applied to these Lproperties. 4.0 EVALUATION OF IDENTIFIED CONTAMINATION SOURCES Agricultural chemical residues may remain on the property. No evidence was found, however, to . indicate that the chemicals were applied inappropriately. L 5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS L Given the historical uses of agricultural chemicals on the subject property, meaningful conclusions regarding the presence or extent of such matetial cannot be determined without soil sampling and analysis. Such sampling and analysis is especially warranted in the conversion of agricultural land into Lresidential use. Should any future residents of the subject property be interested in determining the quality of their L drinking water, EHD should be contacted for direction regarding the potential for impacts to groundwater from the agricultural history of the property and vicinity. As the site is developed, any stained soil or sources of contamination which may be identified should be characterized and properly disposed in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
