§ 3.2 Description of all past on-site potential and/or known above and/or below ground sources of contamination identified on the property include: 1.) There is no record of there being an above ground or underground permitted fuel storage tank(s) (ASTs/USTs) on the subject property. 2.) There is an electrical transformer near the northwest corner of the property. No oil leakage was observed from this transformer, as illustrated on the photographic plate. The predominate wind direction through the region is east-southeast. West-northwest, or upgradient wind shed comes through the Altamont Pass and is illustrated on Page 30 of the ERS document and does not affect the property. Although DDT was banned in 1972, its presence in San Joaquin Valley soils is an indication of its long half-life. It is extremely unlikely there are any concentrations of DDT or its degradates in the property soils from farming operations that may have taken place on the property many decades ago. Any minute residual pesticide concentrations are inconsequential. § 3.3 Description of all current on-site potential and/or known above ground and below ground sources of contamination identified at the project site are included in Section 3.2. No sources of current aboveground contamination were observed, other than the referenced non -hazardous items described in Section 5 of this report. § 3.4 Description of all past off-site potential and/or known above and below ground sources of contamination identified in the area of the project site that could impact the site include: Information conveyed by the ERS documents indicate no listings, with no likelihood of impact to the property from a distant contaminated site. The GeoTracker document illustrates one listing within 1,000 ft radius from the property, which has "completed - case closed" designation. Agricultural spray drift affecting the property from the nearest agricultural production land is an extremely slight possibility, since agricultural production occurs 2,000 feet to the northwest. § 3.5 Descriptions of all current off-site potential and/or known above and below ground sources of contamination identified in the area of the project site include those referenced in Sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 above. Any contaminated sites can be considered "past" off- site sources of contamination that are simultaneously "current" contaminated sources. Chesney Consulting
