Info

10.5.4 – Past Owners, Operators, and Occupants – URS did not attempt to interview previous owners or occupants at the Site. It should be recognized that this study was not intended to be a definitive investigation of potential contamination at the Site and the recommendations provided are not necessarily inclusive of all the possible conditions. This Phase I and Limited Phase II ESA is not a regulatory compliance audit or an evaluation of the efficiency of the use of any hazardous materials at the subject property. No evaluation for the presence of urea-formaldehyde foam insulation or other hazardous building materials; methane; radon gas; lead in drinking water; cultural and historic resources; industrial hygiene and health and safety; ecological resources and endangered species; indoor air quality; or high voltage power lines is included in this ESA. Sampling and analysis for asbestos, radon, lead-based paint, lead in drinking water, or other environmental media were not included in our scope of services. URS’ findings are based on information available from public sources on specific dates (historical photographs, maps and regulatory agency files, lists, and databases); this information is changing continually and is frequently incomplete. Unless URS has actual knowledge to the contrary, information obtained from interviews or provided to URS by the City has been assumed to be correct and complete. URS does not assume any liability for information that has been misrepresented to us or for items not visible, accessible, or present on the subject property during the time of the site reconnaissance. URS assumes no obligation or responsibility for providing information that may become available after the completion of this report. URS cannot warrant or guarantee that not finding indicators of hazardous materials means that hazardous materials do not exist on the subject property. There is no investigation thorough enough to preclude the presence of materials on the subject property, which presently, or in the future, may be considered hazardous. Because regulatory evaluation criteria are constantly changing, concentrations of contaminants present and considered to be acceptable may, in the future, become subject to different regulatory standards and require remediation. Where records indicate that prior remedial work or tank removals have occurred there is the possibility that the work may not have been performed correctly or completely. In these cases, if the regulatory agency has approved the closure of the tank or other action, we have assumed that the work was done correctly and completely. Opinions and judgments expressed herein are based on URS’ understanding and interpretation of current regulatory standards, and should not be construed as legal opinions. 1.5 SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS No special terms and conditions apply. 1.6 USER RELIANCE This Phase I and Limited Phase II ESA report has been prepared for use solely by the City of San José. This report shall not be relied upon or transferred to any other party, or used for any other purpose, without the express written authorization of URS. Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Mineta San José International Airport – West Parking Lot, 1120 Coleman Avenue, and 1128 Coleman Avenue URS Job No.: 28645338 3 City of San José, CA
1.7 VALIDITY The Phase I ESA was prepared in conformance with the ASTM Standard E 1527-05 approved November 18, 2005. The following components of this report must be updated after one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of this report if the property or properties have not been acquired within that period of time: Interviews with owners, operator and occupants; Searches for recorded environmental cleanup liens; Reviews of federal, tribal, state, and local government records; Visual inspection of the property and of adjoining properties; and The declaration of the environmental professional responsible for the assessment or update. 1.8 DATA GAPS A Title Report was not provided to URS from the City and represents a minor data gap in accordance with the ASTM Standard. However, the subject properties have been solely owned by the City since the 1950s and it is URS’ opinion that no significant data failures that would warrant further investigation were noted during our assessment.
