Dear Ms. Caldwell:
In accordance with our proposal dated January 24, 2008, and on behalf of the Village of
Romeoville (CLIENT), V3 Companies of Illinois, Ltd. (V3) conducted a Phase II Environmental
Site Assessment (Phase II ESA) at the Spartans’ Square Shopping Center (“Site”) located at the
southwest corner of IL Route 53 and Phelps Avenue in Romeoville, Illinois (Figure 1).
The Phase II ESA was performed on January 28, 2008, to investigate the four recognized
environmental conditions (RECs) identified by V3 in a Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment (Phase I ESA) dated January 17, 2008.
BACKGROUND
The Site is located at the southwest corner of IL Route 53 and Phelps Avenue in Romeoville,
Will County, Illinois (Figure 2). The Site is occupied by Spartans’ Square Shopping Center,
which includes a large hardware store, 10 smaller commercial spaces and associated asphalt
parking lot and landscaping.
During V3’s Phase I ESA, the following evidence of RECs was identified:
• Three below-ground hydraulic lifts are located south of the Site building (behind 21 and
23 Terrace Lane).
• Historical on-site dry cleaning operations were reportedly performed at the Mrs. Clean
Laundromat at 7 Terrace Lane.
• Groundwater impacts from an open LUST incident that occurred at the east adjacent
Philips 66 Gas Station has apparently impacted the groundwater at the Site.
• Based on regulatory status and their close proximity, the open LUST incident that was
reported at the former Clark Gas Station (northeast adjacent property) has the potential
to impact the Site.
