ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL RECORDS Additional state or local database listings will be reviewed as deemed appropriate. A comprehensive review of Indiana and /or federal regulatory files is beyond the scope of this Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. Jones Petrie Rafinski will review and summarize information on the subject site and adjoining properties made available through environmental records available through the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) Virtual File Cabinet or FOI Request. PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCES A United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 Minute Topographic Map will be reviewed to evaluate area topographic and surface drainage. At least one (1) additional physical setting source will be reviewed for information on the geologic, hydrogeologic, hydrologic, or topographic characteristics. HISTORICAL USE INFORMATION The purpose of consulting historical sources is to develop a history of the previous uses or occupancies of the site, and surrounding area, in order to identify those uses, or occupancies that are likely to have led to recognized environmental conditions in connection with the subject site. USES OF THE SUBJECT PROPERTIES Prior uses of the subject site will be identified from the present, back until at least the period of initial development using available "standard historical resources" listed below: Aerial Photographs Fire Insurance Maps Property Tax Files Recorded Land Title Records Local Street Directories This Proposal does not include a Chain -of -Title search. If others have recently completed a Chain -of- Title, Jones Petrie Rafinski will review the document for potential environmental concerns associated with prior ownership. USES OF PROPERTY IN SURROUNDING AREAS Using available resources, the history and /or general uses of properties in the surrounding area will be researched at a search distance and time period deemed appropriate given the findings of other portions of the assessment. Complete coverage using local street directories, Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps and potentially other historical records regarding the prior uses of the subject site and surrounding properties may be limited, not readily available, or may not even exist for review. SITE RECONNAISSANCE The purpose of the site reconnaissance is to observe current conditions at the site and obtain information indicating the likelihood of environmental concerns with the site. A reconnaissance will be performed for indications of waste handling or disposal activities that may pose a hazard to the subsurface environment. Jones Petrie Rafinski will require access to all areas, to the
