(OTO) has conducted a Phase I/II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) for property located at 209 Spring Street in the Florence section of Northampton, Massachusetts. The ESA has been prepared in conformance with the ASTM Standards E1527-05 and E1903-02 on behalf of the City of Northampton. The assessment consisted of: a records review; a Site and area reconnaissance; interviews with Site representatives; a review of regulatory agency file information; interviews with local government officials; installation of two groundwater monitoring wells; collection and analysis of soil and groundwater samples; and preparation of this report. A summary of our findings and conclusions is presented below. The Site includes approximately 47 acres of land that has historically been used for agricultural purposes. A barn/shop, a hog house, and two sheds are located on Site. The residence and and abutting barn on this property were not included in our site assessment, as they are not planned to be part of the potential property transfer. Our Phase I assessment identified three Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) at the Site: an underground storage tank (UST), historic pesticide use in the orchards, and historic solid waste filling in one area. Phase II activities were conducted to assess these RECs. The first REC is a 100 gallon UST located near the northeastern corner of the barn/shop near Spring Street. Use of the tank was reportedly discontinued when it was determined to be leaking, approximately 50 years ago. The tank is believed to remain below grade, unfilled. Field screening of soil samples and laboratory analysis of a groundwater sample from the UST area did not indicate the presence of gasoline. The UST is therefore identified as an historical REC. However, to come into compliance with Massachusetts tank regulations, and for safety considerations, we recommend the UST be removed. removed. The second REC is pesticide use in historic apple orchards on Site. Soil testing was conducted in the main orchard area on the north side of the property. Arsenic and dieldrin were detected above Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP) Reportable Concentrations in soil samples collected from the former orchard area. In our opinion, these constituents are exempt from reporting under the MCP as they are believed to be present due to historic use of pesticides on Site in accordance with manufacturer’s specifications. However, should you acquire this property, we recommend you notify the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) and indicate your intention not to formally report this condition. If redevelopment of this area occurs, we recommend you consult with a Licensed Site Professional (LSP) regarding proper soil management if the soils are relocated, and regarding potential public health risks that may be associated with use of the area. We recommend you assume similar conditions conditions are present in the two smaller former orchards at the southern end of the property. The third REC is an abandoned private solid waste fill area is located at the north end of the property. The area was formerly a gulley, and was filled with household and farm debris such as O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 2 E N G I N E E R I N G cans, bottles and other trash. No disposal of hazardous materials in the area was identified. Use of the fill area reportedly stopped approximately 30 years ago, when the area was covered with soil. We were unable to install a groundwater monitoring well in this area due to subsurface conditions. A soil sample from the water saturated zone downgradient of the area did not contain lead, arsenic or other pesticides at levels above Reportable Concentrations. However, the fill materials are unknown. We recommend you use caution in your future use of this area. If development of the fill area is planned, explorations should be conducted to further characterize the materials present. Multiple drums, buckets and other containers in which oil or hazardous materials may be present were observed in the barn closest to Spring Street. We did not have access to the barn interior for a complete reconnaissance, therefore the types and volumes of materials present are unknown. We recommend you use care to properly dispose of these materials. For your convenience, a list of acronyms is provided in Section 16.0, at the end of this report. 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 PURPOSE This report presents the results of a Phase I & II Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) performed at the former Bean Farm property located at 209 Spring Street in Northampton, Massachusetts. This Phase I & II ESA was performed in accordance with ASTM Standards E1527-05 and E1903-02. This work was performed at the request of the City of Northampton, which may acquire the property. Mr. Wayne Feiden of the City of Northampton Planning Department served as the Key Site Manager. Mr. Cordis Bean, the son of the deceased owner, served as the owner’s representative. The purpose of our Phase I & II ESA was to evaluate the Site history and current conditions to identify past or current Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) at the Site. The ASTM Standard Practice defines "Recognized Environmental Conditions" as the presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on the subject site under conditions that indicate an existing release, past release or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater or surface water of the property. The term includes hazardous substances even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not intended to include de minimis conditions that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of appropriate government agencies. Conditions determined to be de minimis are not recognized environmental conditions. In addition, the ASTMStandard requires that historical RECs (HRECs) and known or suspected environmental conditions be identified in the Phase I assessment report. The Standard defines HRECs as environmental conditions “which in the past would have been considered a recognized environmental condition, but but which may or may not be considered a recognized environmental condition currently.” O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 3 E N G I N E E R I N G 2.2 SCOPE OF SERVICES The following tasks were undertaken: A review of Standard Environmental Records Sources; Interviews with the Key Site Manager and owner’s representative; Interviews with local government officials; A review of Site history; A Site reconnaissance; Collection and analysis of soil and groundwater samples; and, Evaluation and report preparation. 2.3 SIGNIFICANT ASSUMPTIONS OTO has performed the environmental record searches in accordance with current ASTM and industry practice. The data, findings, and conclusions presented in this ESA are based upon a search, review, and analysis of the documents and interviews, as well as observations made during the Site reconnaissance. Conclusions reached regarding the conditions of the Site do not represent a warranty that all areas within the Site are of a similar quality, as may be inferred from observable Site conditions and available Site history. As stated in the ASTM standard, no ESA can wholly eliminate uncertainty regarding potential environmental conditions in connection with the Site. OTO’s evaluation and analysis are intended to reduce, not eliminate, the potential for conditions that result in environmental risk for the end user of this report. 2.4 LIMITATIONS AND EXCEPTIONS Our report has been performed subject to the following limitations: 1. The observations presented in this report were made under the conditions described herein. The conclusions presented are based solely upon the services described and not on scientific tasks or procedures beyond the scope of the project. 2. In preparing the report, OTO relied on certain information provided by federal, state and local officials and other parties referenced herein, and on information contained in the files of state or local regulatory agencies at the time of the file review. Although there may have been some degree of overlap in the information provided by these sources, OTO did not attempt to independently verify the the accuracy or completeness of all information reviewed or received during the course of this assessment. 3. Observations were made of the Site and of the structures on the Site, as indicated within the report. Where access to portions of the Site or to structures on the Site was unavailable or limited, we render no opinion as to the presence of hazardous materials or oil, or to the presence of indirect information relating to hazardous materials or oil in that O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 4 E N G I N E E R I N G portion of the Site. Access to the Site buildings was prevented by safety concerns. In addition, we render no opinion as to the presence of hazardous materials or oil, where direct observations of portions of the Site were obstructed by objects or coverings on or over these surfaces. 4. The purpose of this Report was to assess the physical characteristics of the Site with respect to the presence of hazardous material or oil in soil or groundwater at the Site. No specific attempt was made to check on the compliance of present or past owners or operators of the Site with federal, state, or local laws and regulations, environmental or otherwise. The following is a non-comprehensive list of issues and conditions which the report user may want to assess in connection with the real estate being evaluated and which are outside the scope of the ASTM Phase I Site Assessment process: 1. Compliance with other site assessment report standards (bank bank or government agency standards); 2. Review of compliance with environmental Activity and Use Limitations (AULs); 3. Asbestos Containing Building Materials; 4. Lead based paint; 5. Lead or other contaminants in drinking water; 6. Wetlands; 7. Regulatory compliance; 8. Cultural and historic resources; 9. Industrial hygiene; 10. Health and safety; 11. Ecological resources and Endangered species; 12. Indoor air quality; 13. Biological agents; and 14. Mold. While not included in this proposal, OTO can help you evaluate many of these potential concerns. Please feel free to contact us regarding these additional issues. This report has been prepared in accordance with the referenced ASTM standards. 2.5 SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS There are no other special terms or conditions concerning this project other than those specifically described in Section 2.4. 2.6 USER RELIANCE This report documents the Site work performed by OTO at the request of the City of Northampton in accordance with ASTM Standard 1527-05. The findings, opinions, and O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 5 E N G I N E E R I N G conclusions of this report are for the confidential and exclusive use of the City of Northampton. Reliance on this report for any use or by parties other than those specifically stated is prohibited without the express written consent of OTO and the City of Northampton, and such use is at the sole risk of the user. 3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION 3.1 LOCATION AND LEGAL DESCRIPTION A Site Locus based on the current United States Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map of the Easthampton, Massachusetts Quadrangle (1:25,000 scale) is attached as Figure 1. A Site Plan is provided as Figure 2. The property is listed in Northampton Assessor’s records as parcels 16C-025-001 and 16C-025-700. Portions of the parcel along Spring Street including the residence and an abutting barn would be retained by the Bean family, and were not included in this ESA. The total area of the property included in this ESA is approximately 47 acres of land. 3.2 SITE AND VICINITY GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS The Site is located at 209 Spring Street in the Village of Florence in Northampton, Massachusetts. The Site and vicinity are sparsely developed, and used primarily for residential and agricultural purposes. The Site is bounded by the Mill River on the north, agricultural fields on the east, residential properties on the west, and Spring Street on the south. The Site elevation is approximately 250 feet above mean sea level (MSL) in the central portions of the fields, which are relatively flat. Ground surface elevation slopes upwards in the western and southern portions of the Site, to approximately 280 feet near Spring Street. The Site is bordered to the north by the southeasterly flowing Mill River. Based on topography, groundwater flow direction at the Site is inferred to be northeasterly towards the Mill River. A groundwater survey was not conducted to confirm this. 3.3 CURRENT USE OF THE SITE The Site is currently vacant, and is not used for any identified purpose. It was most recently used for agricultural purposes, several years ago. 3.4 DESCRIPTIONS OF STRUCTURES, ROADS AND IMPROVEMENTS The Site is improved with several wood framed farm buildings, including a barn/shop at the southern end of the Site near Spring Street, a building formerly used to house hogs and chickens (referred to in this report as “the hog house”) in the central portion of the Site, and two open-air structures identified as the corn crib and hog shed on Figure 2. A private dirt road traverses the property in a roughly north-south orientation. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 6 E N G I N E E R I N G 3.5 CURRENT USES OF ADJOINING PROPERTIES During the Site visit, a visual survey was conducted of surrounding land use. The Site is abutted to the north and east by a mixture of agricultural and forest land. Land to the south and west of the Site is primarily residential. 4.0 USER PROVIDED INFORMATION A User Questionnaire (as referenced in the ASTM Standard) has been completed and provided to OTO. The questionnaire was completed by Mr. Wayne Feiden of the Northampton Planning Department, and is attached in Appendix A. This Phase I & II ESA was conducted on behalf of the City, which may acquire the property for use as recreational fields and/or agricultural land. Mr. Feiden had no knowledge of environmental liens or Activity and Use Limitations at the property, and indicated the property price reflects fair market value. The City is aware of an underground gasoline storage tank near the barn/shop, an old solid waste fill area at the north north end of the property, and the likely use of pesticides at the Site during its agricultural use. 5.0 RECORDS REVIEW 5.1 STANDARD ENVIRONMENTAL RECORDS SOURCES The Standard Environmental Records Sources identified in the ASTM Standard were reviewed for the Site and vicinity using a FirstSearch Technology Corporation (FirstSearch) database search conducted on December 1, 2009. A listing of the records reviewed by FirstSearch and the radius for which the search was conducted is summarized in Table 1. The radius searched for these databases meets or exceeds the radius required in the ASTM standard. A copy of the FirstSearch report is attached in Appendix B. No database listings were identified for the Site property. No Federal NPL (National Priorities List or Superfund), CERCLIS, RCRA Corrective Action Sites/TSDF or RCRA generator listings were identified within the search radii. A total of four State-listed spills/releases were identified at two locations within one mile of the subject Site. Details of the the releases were reviewed, and the nearest release was approximately 0.75 miles from the Site. Based on the information available in the FirstSearch report, online files from MassDEP, and on the distance and the inferred groundwater flow direction with respect to the Site, none of the area listings are likely to impact Site soil and/or groundwater quality above MassDEP standards. 5.2 ADDITIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL RECORDS SOURCES A review of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) on-line list of Sites with Activity and Use Limitations (AULs) did not identify an AUL at the Site. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 7 E N G I N E E R I N G The Massachusetts Geographic Information System (MassGIS) on-line priority resource map of the Site and vicinity was reviewed on November 30, 2009. A copy of that plan is provided as Figure 3. The northern portions of the Site along the Mill River are mapped as wetlands and an estimated habitat of rare wildlife in wetlands areas. Construction and other activities in northern portions of the property may therefore be restricted and subject to permitting by the local Conservation Commission. The MCP identifies different reporting classifications for potential releases to soil and groundwater. Groundwater located within current or potential drinking water source areas is classified as RCGW-1. Current drinking water source areas are defined as areas: Within a Zone II or Interim Wellhead Protection Area for a public water supply; Within the Zone A of a Class A surface water body used as a public water supply; or Within 500 feet of a private water supply well. Potential drinking water source areas are defined as areas: 500 feet or more from a public water supply line; Within an area designated by a municipality specifically for the protection of groundwater quality; or Within a Potentially Productive Aquifer (PPA) that has not been excluded as a Non-Potential Drinking Water Source Area (NPDWSA). Based on our review of the MassGIS priority resource mapping, the Site is located within a medium yield Potentially Productive Aquifer (PPA), and is therefore within a potential drinking water source area. The Site is not located in a Current drinking water source area. Buildings in the Site vicinity are serviced by municipal sewer and water. Officials at the Northampton Health Department were not aware of private wells within 500 feet of the Site. Based on the above information, the applicable Site groundwater classification would be RCGW-1. Soil located within 500 feet of residential property or within a current or potential drinking water source area is classified as RCS-1 for MCP reporting purposes. Site soils would therefore be classified as RCS-1. No other Additional Environmental Records Sources were reviewed. 5.3 PHYSICAL SETTING SOURCES The United States Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map of the Easthampton, Massachusetts Quadrangle (1:25,000 scale) was reviewed and used to prepare the Site Locus (Figure 1). As shown on that plan, the Site slopes gently downward towards the abutting Mill River on the north. The elevation at the Southern portion of the Site, in the area around the farm houses, ranges from approximately 260 to 270 feet above mean sea level (MSL). The remaining O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 8 E N G I N E E R I N G area north of the farm houses has a slightly lower elevation, and tends to be generally flat at an approximate elevation of 250 feet above MSL. 5.4 HISTORICAL USE INFORMATION ON THE SITE AND ADJOINING PROPERTY Our ASTM Standard Historical Sources review included historic maps, aerial photographs, local street directories, fire department records, and interviews with knowledgeable individuals. A summary of relevant information obtained from these sources is presented below. Our interview with Mr. Bean is discussed in Section 7.1.1. 5.4.1 Historic Maps and Photographs We reviewed historic Sanborn Fire Insurance Map files, and found there was no coverage for the Site and immediate vicinity. The closest area for which coverage was available was the southern portion of Spring Street located south of Meadow Street. The absence of Sanborn map coverage is common for areas that have not been heavily developed. Sanborn maps were developed primarily to document commercial and industrial use for fire insurance purposes. We reviewed the 1895 Historic Topographic map from the UNH Diamond Library database of Historic USGS Maps of New England online at nh.edu/nhtopos/Northampton.htm on December 29, 2009. The USGS topographic map for the area showed one building, consistent with a residence located just west of the Site along Spring Street. There were no buildings shown on the Site. At that time the vicinity was sparsely developed. Aerial photographs from 1965 and 2005 were provided to by the City of Northampton. Additionally, an aerial photograph from the 1990s was reviewed on the MassGIS website. The photographs show the Site farm houses and surrounding land consistent with current conditions. Consistent with information on historic use obtained during our interviews, the 1965 aerial photograph shows an orchard in the northern portion of the Site. By the 1990s the orchard area had been converted to an open field, contiguous with other open fields at the Site. Copies of relevant sections of historic maps and photographs are provided in Appendix C. 5.4.2 Local Street Directories We reviewed local street directories in approximately ten year increments for the period from 1889 to 1970, the last date for which a directory was available at the Forbes Library in Northampton on December 29, 2009. The address historically associated with the Site is not clear, and may have changed over time, therefore we reviewed listings for Spring Street between Meadow Street and Chesterfield Road. In 1909, Henry I. Bean was listed as a farmer at 173 Spring Street. The property continued to be listed under Henry I. Bean until approximately 1949. In 1929, Fredrick H. Bean was listed at 190 Spring Street. In 1939 A.H. Bean was listed at 195 Spring Street. In 1949 Robert Bean was added O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 9 E N G I N E E R I N G to the listings at 233 Spring Street. Sometime from 1940 to 1959 the Bean property at 173 Spring Street was sold to William Gorham. The 1969 listed Cordis L. Bean at 198 Spring Street. In 1979 the Surname Bean was listed at 190, 195, 198, and 233 Spring Street. Based on street directory listings, neighboring property use appears to have been primarily residential. The property at 150 Spring Street was identified as a commercial property (Florence Ice Co.) from approximately 1929 to 1939. In 1939 Florence Ice Co. was also listed as O’Donnell BJ fuel oil. By 1949 the address at 150 Spring Street was not listed. That property is approximately 800 feet southeast of the Site, near the intersection with Meadow Street. A rifle range was listed at 228 Spring Street since between at least 1929 and 1969, at a location currently identified as Colonel Lavalley Lane. 5.4.3 Assessor’s Office Records We reviewed property record information for the Site available at the Northampton Assessor’s Office on January 8, 2010. The subject property was identified as map-block number 16C-025 at 209 Spring Street in Assessor’s records. The lot is listed as owned by Mr. Robert Bean. We understand the owner to be deceased, and the estate not yet settled. The Assessor’s card indicates there is one house located at 209 Spring Street and it was constructed in 1900 and it is heated with an oil fired forced hot air heating system. That residence was not included within the subject Site. 5.4.4 Storage Tanks As discussed in Section 7.1.1, Mr. Cordis Bean indicated a 100 gallon UST on the east side of the barn/shop was formerly used to store gasoline. That tank is believed to remain below ground, empty and not formally abandoned. There were no leaking underground storage tank sites identified within the search radii of the FirstSearch report. We requested storage tank records for the Site and vicinity at the Northampton Fire Department on December 29, 2009. The Fire Department representative provided two records for Spring Street, neither of which is believed to be on the subject Site. Copies of Spring Street tank records are attached in Appendix D. The first tank was located at 45 Spring Street. It was a 550 gallon steel underground storage tank (UST) used to store fuel oil, and was removed in February 2000. The second tank record for Spring Street was an application for a tank removal located at 465 Spring Street. The tank was a 550 gallon UST used to store fuel oil. The application was filed in May 1997. The records did not include observations of subsurface conditions at the time of tank removal. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 10 E N G I N E E R I N G 5.4.5 Summary of History In summary, the Site and vicinity have been used for residential and agricultural purposes since at least 1900. An orchard was formerly located at the northern end of the Site. One gasoline UST was located on the east side of the barn/shop, and is believed to remain in-place, not formally abandoned. 5.5 PRIOR ASSESSMENTS No prior environmental assessment reports were identified for this property. 6.0 SITE RECONNAISSANCE 6.1 METHODOLOGY AND LIMITING CONDITIONS Our initial Site Reconnaissance was conducted on November 30, 2009 in the company of Mr. Wayne Feiden of the Northampton Planning Department. That visit included observation of exterior portions of the property only. Subsequently, on December 23, 2009, we performed a more detailed reconnaissance of the property in the company of Mr. Cordis Bean, who provided access to the interior of the former hog house. The barn/shop near Spring Street was locked and could not be accessed during our investigations. However, we were able to observe portions of the interior through windows. The ground surface was snow-covered during our December visit, but was visible during our November visit. Access to portions of the property and observation of the ground surface were limited by dense vegetation. 6.2 SITE SETTING AND OBSERVATIONS The Site is located in a lightly developed area used primarily for residential and agricultural purposes. Photographs of relevant features are provided in Appendix E. Our observations are presented in the following sections, which follow the ASTM standard outline. 6.2.1 Hazardous Substances and Petroleum Products No current use of oil or hazardous materials was identified at the Site. The property was last used for agricultural purposes several years ago. However, the barn/shop at the southern end of the Site, near Spring Street, contains multiple drums, buckets and other containers. We were not able to access the interior of the barn, but based on our observations through windows, oil and/or hazardous materials including automotive fluids and general maintenance supplies such as paints and cleaners are likely to remain inside. 6.2.2 Storage Tanks During our Site reconnaissance, one storage tank was observed in a shed at the Site (see photograph in Appendix E). Based on the sound of the tank when the side was struck, it O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 11 E N G I N E E R I N G appeared to be empty or nearly empty. Mr. Bean indicated this tank had previously been used for diesel fuel storage. No indication of a release was observed on the ground surface in the tank vicinity. Mr. Bean indicated a location on the eastern side of the barn where a gasoline UST was located. We did not observe fill or vent pipes in the vicinity of the reported UST, or at other locations on Site. As discussed in Section 7.1.1, Mr. Bean indicated use of the UST was terminated approximately 50 years ago when it was determined that the tank leaked. The tank had not been formally abandoned, to his knowledge. 6.2.3 Odors No odors indicative of a release of oil or hazardous materials were observed during our Site reconnaissance. 6.2.4 Pools of Liquid No pools of standing water or other liquids were observed at the Site or immediately abutting property during our Site reconnaissance. 6.2.5 Drums Several abandoned steel drums were observed in exterior portions of the Site during our reconnaissance. The drums were empty and rusting, with no indicators of their former contents. No indication of a release was identified in the vicinity of the drums, which are therefore not identified as a REC. 6.2.6 Hazardous Substances and Petroleum Products Containers As described in Section 6.2.1, multiple containers were observed inside the barn/shop that may contain, or may have contained, oil and/or hazardous materials. The types and quantities of these materials could not be documented, as we were not provided access to the barn interior. One steel storage tank was observed in the corn crib, just beyond the barn on the dirt access road. The tank appeared to be empty. Mr. Bean indicated the tank had formerly been used as an above-ground storage unit for diesel fuel. No other oil or hazardous material containers were observed at the Site. 6.2.7 Unidentified Substance Containers As described in Section 6.2.1, multiple unidentified containers were observed in the barn/shop. In addition, multiple unidentified, empty, rusted, 55 gallon steel drums were located on the ground surface in wooded areas at the southern end of the Site. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 12 E N G I N E E R I N G 6.2.8 PCBs No transformers or other equipment identified as potentially containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) was identified at the Site. 6.2.9 Interior Observations The interior of the barn/shop contains many drums, buckets, and other containers, as well as farm equipment and other debris. Mr. Bean indicated this barn was formerly used as a shop. He indicated that pesticides were not stored in this building, they had been stored in the barn directly behind the residence, which is not part of the Site. Our interior observations of the barn were limited to what was visible through windows from outside the buildings, as the building was locked on the date of our reconnaissance. We observed the interior of the hog house in the company of Mr. Bean. The building contained wooden animal pens bedded with hay. A propane-fired heating system and a water pump were observed in the northwestern corner of the ground floor. The upper floor of the building contained a small amount of trash, such as an old computer and a tire. We did not identify conditions indicative of an oil or hazardous materials release in the hog house interior. As previously discussed, the corn crib contains one steel storage tank previously used to store diesel fuel. 6.2.10 Exterior Observations -Pits, Ponds or Lagoons No pools of standing water or other liquids were observed at the Site or immediately abutting property during our Site reconnaissance. A small pond is located in the west central portion of the Site. Mr. Bean indicated the pond is a natural feature, and that it goes nearly dry seasonally. 6.2.11 Exterior Observations -Stained Soil or Pavement No staining or other observations indicative of a release were observed in exterior portions of the Site. Portions of the property are overgrown, such as the fill area, therefore the ground surface was not visible in some locations. 6.2.12 Exterior Observations -Stressed Vegetation No stressed vegetation was observed at the Site or immediately abutting property during our reconnaissance.6.2.13 Exterior Observations -Solid Waste An abandoned private solid waste disposal area is located in the northern portion of the property, west of the dirt road in the former orchard area. Mr. Bean indicated the area was used for O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 13 E N G I N E E R I N G general trash, such as cans and bottles, and that hazardous materials were not deposited here. The area is currently overgrown with small brush. Small quantities of debris are visible at the ground surface. However, the area was largely covered over with soil at the time a sewer line was installed in the vicinity, approximately 30 years ago, according to Mr. Bean. Because of the soil cover, it is difficult to determine the limits of filling, but we estimate an approximately 20 foot wide by 80 foot length of gulley may contain fill. Abandoned farming equipment and small piles of old construction materials and other debris were observed in limited areas at the southern end of the Site, near the Spring Street barn. No indication of a reportable release associated with these materials was observed. 6.2.14 Exterior Observations -Waste Water No waste water discharge was observed at the Site or immediately abutting property during our Site reconnaissance. 6.2.15 Exterior Observations – Wells Mr. Bean identified the location of a shallow water well on Site, off the northwestern corner of the hog house. The well was formerly used to provide water for livestock, and is not plumbed to residential supplies. No supply wells or groundwater monitoring wells were observed during our Site visit. As noted in Section 5.2, this area is serviced by the municipal water system. 6.2.16 Exterior Observations -Septic Systems According to Mr. Cordis Bean, one out-of-service septic tank is located at the southern end of the Site, near the barn/shop. While the septic tank is on Site, the residence associated with it is not. The septic system was formerly used by the residence, which is currently connected to the municipal sewer system. 7.0 INTERVIEWS 7.1 INTERVIEWS WITH OWNERS/OCCUPANTS/SITE MANAGER OTO interviewed representatives of the current Site owner and the potential purchaser. Information from those interviews is summarized in the following sections. 7.1.1 Site Owner OTO interviewed Mr. Cordis Bean, the deceased owner’s son, for information on past Site use. Mr. Bean has knowledge of the property spanning many decades, and currently resides at 198 Spring Street. Our interview with Mr. Bean was conducted on Site, where he identified relevant features. Information provided byMr. Bean has been incorporated into relevant sections of this report. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 14 E N G I N E E R I N G Mr. Bean indicated an underground storage tank (UST) was formerly used to store gasoline at the Site. He indicated the area where the UST was located, off the northeast corner of barn near Spring Street. His recollection is that the UST had a 100 gallon capacity. Use of the UST was discontinued when it was determined to be leaking, approximately 50 years ago. He did not recall the tank being filled or formally abandoned. After that time, gasoline was brought to the Site in five gallon containers; no replacement tank was installed. Mr. Bean indicated the solid waste fill area at the northern end of the property was originally a gulley that was filled over time with solid waste materials from the residence and farm. Approximately thirty years ago, the City installed a large sewer line below the northern portion of the property. At that time, the area was covered over with soil, and has not been used since. Mr. Bean did not recall disposal of hazardous materials in the area, and indicated that it received empty cans, bottles, and other nonhazardous refuse. In regard to the orchard that was formerly located at the northern end of the Site, Mr. Bean indicated that pesticide applications had historically included lead arsenate, DDT, malathion, and captan. Chemicals were typically mixed in a 200 gallon container at the north end of the Site. Water was pumped from the river near the orchard for this purpose. The pesticides were then manually sprayed as the tank was pulled through the orchard, first by horses, and later by a tractor. Pesticides were stored in an off-site barn. The orchard was cut down in approximately 1970. Remaining pesticides were cleared from the barn at that time, and donated or sold to another orchard. Field crops grown at the Site historically included hay, corn and hubbard squash. Mr. Bean indicated these fields received fertilizer, but not pesticide applications. Agricultural use of the fields continued up until a few years ago by Mr. Bean’s brother. Feeder pigs and chicken eggs were also historically produced. Hogs and chickens were kept in the hog house. Hogs were also sometimes kept in the hog shed, and were turned out into fenced fields after corn harvesting. We observed the interior and exterior of the hog house in Mr. Bean’s company. He indicated the building was formerly heated with coal, but now uses propane. There is one shallow dug well outside the northwestern corner of the building. The water from this well was used only for livestock, and is not plumbed to residential supply lines. 7.1.2 Potential Purchaser/Site Manager Mr. Wayne Feiden of the City of Northampton Planning Department served as the Site Manager for this property. The User Questionnaire completed byMr. Feiden is provided in Appendix A, and indicates the City is unaware of environmental impacts at the Site. The City is aware of the underground storage tank formerly used for gasoline storage near the barn, a farm dump between two fields near the river, and historic use of pesticides and herbicides on the property during its use as a farm and orchard. Mr. Feiden provided a Site plan identifying the main orchard at the north end of the property, as well as two smaller areas at the southern end of the property he understands were historically used as orchards. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 15 E N G I N E E R I N G 7.2 INTERVIEWS WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES We contacted the Northampton Department of Public Works to apply for a trench permit in regard to our planned subsurface explorations. On December 2, 2009, Mr. Tom Smith of the DPW accompanied OTO on a Site visit, and identified the location of a major drain line which runs approximately east-west across the northern portion of the Site, near the Mill River. OTO visited the Northampton Assessor’s Office, and Health Department on January 8, 2010. OTO visited the Northampton Fire Department on December 29, 2009. Assessor’s records are discussed in Section 5.4.3. The Health Department did not identify any public wells, septic systems, or health concerns at the Site. The Building Department did not have any permits or other relevant information on record for the property. Fire Department files provided to us did not contain records of storage tanks at the Site. 8.0 PHASE I FINDINGS A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of the approximately 47 acres of property on Spring Street in Florence (Northampton), Massachusetts has been conducted by O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun Associates, Inc. (OTO). The Phase I assessment was prepared in conformance with the ASTM Standard E1527-05. A summary of our findings and conclusions is presented below. Site Description The Site is comprised of approximately 47 acres of land which are currently vacant. The property is listed with the Northampton Assessor’s office as map-block number 16C-025. The residence and abutting barn on that parcel were not included in our ESA. Site Use History The Site and vicinity have been used for residential and agricultural purposes since at least 1900. An apple orchard was formerly located in the northern portion of the Site, and received pesticide applications including lead arsenate, DDT, malathion and captan. The orchard was cut down in approximately 1970. Field crops produced at the Site have included hay, corn, and hubbard squash. Feeder pigs and laying chickens were kept in the hog house in the central portion of the Site. A gulley at the northern end of the Site was historically filled with solid waste materials from the farm and residence. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 16 E N G I N E E R I N G Storage Tanks One underground storage tank (UST) formerly used to store gasoline was identified on the northeastern side of the barn/shop near Spring Street. The UST reportedly had a 100 gallon capacity, and its use was discontinued about 50 years ago when it was determined that the tank leaked. We understand the tank was not formally abandoned, but remains in place empty. One above-ground storage tank was observed in the corn crib near the red barn. The tank appears to be empty or nearly empty. That tank was reportedly previously used to store diesel fuel, and is currently out of service. Records Review No listings for the Site were identified during our review of standard site assessment databases and files. A total of four State-listed spills/releases were identified at two locations within one mile of the subject Site. Details of the releases were reviewed and the nearest release was approximately 0.75 miles from the Site. Based on on the information available in the FirstSearch report, online files from MassDEP, and on the distance and the inferred groundwater flow direction with respect to the Site, none of the area listings are likely to impact Site soil and/or groundwater quality above MassDEP. Site Reconnaissance The barn/shop near Spring Street was observed to be filled with containers, equipment and other debris. We did not have access to interior portions of the barn, so we could not determine what the contents of the containers was, if any. Several of the containers appeared to have been automotive fluids. Interior portions of the hog house contained animal pens and hay. A small amount of trash was observed in the upper level. No indications of an oil or hazardous material release were identified in the hog house. An old solid waste fill area was observed at the northern end of the Site. The area appears to have been created in a gulley, a portion of which is still visible at the northern limit of filling. The area has been largely covered with soil and is overgrown, therefore, for the most part, waste materials are not visible. Small piles of debris were also observed at other locations, primarily in the vicinity of the house, barn and corn crib. Materials in these piles consisted of construction materials and empty steel drums. No indications of a reportable release were observed during the Site visit. 8.1 RECOGNIZED ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS We identified three Recognized Environmental Conditions, as defined in the ASTM Standard, during the course of our Phase I assessment: O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 17 E N G I N E E R I N G 1. The historic apple orchards in which pesticides were applied; 2. The solid waste fill area at the northern end of the Site; and 3. The underground storage tank previously used to store gasoline near the barn/shop. These three RECs were therefore assessed in our Phase II activities. 9.0 PHASE II ASSESSMENT 9.1 PHASE II SCOPE OF WORK Our Phase II assessment consisted of the following additional tasks which when combined with our Phase I report, meet the requirements of the ASTM standard E1903-02 for Phase II assessments: 1. The advancement of seven soil borings; 2. the completion of two soil borings as a groundwater monitoring wells; 3. screening of soil samples for volatile organic compounds (VOCs); 4. the collection and analysis of soil samples; and 5. the collection and analysis one groundwater sample. The activities are discussed in the following sections. 9.2 SOIL BORINGS AND MONITORING WELL INSTALLATION On December 23, 2009, seven soil borings (BF-1 through BF-7) were performed at the Site by Seaboard Environmental Drilling of Chicopee, Massachusetts using a Geoprobe direct push drill rig. Boring locations are shown on Figure 2. Borings BF-1 and BF-2 were performed near the former underground storage tank at the barn, and were completed as groundwater monitoring wells. Boring BF-3 was completed near the solid waste fill area at the north end of the property. Those borings were advanced to depths of twelve feet below grade. Borings BF-4 through BF-7 were shallow (one foot depth) borings for the purpose of surface soil sample collection in the former orchard at the north end of the Site. OTO observed the borings, and collected soil samples for classification and analysis. Materials encountered and screening results are presented in the soil boring logs, attached in Appendix F. During advancement of the borings, soil samples were collected continuously in four foot long plastic sleeves. The sleeves were split open to expose the soils recovered from each boring. Two soil samples, representative of the upper and lower two feet of material from each sleeve, were placed into jars. The tops of the jars were covered with foil, and the jars were sealed and agitated to allow for the development of headspace vapors. Soil samples were then screened for VOCs using a TEI Model 580B photoionization (PID) calibrated to read in parts per million as benzene. PID readings in each of the samples were zero. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 18 E N G I N E E R I N G 9.2.1 Former Underground Storage Tank Area Borings BF-1 and BF-2 were performed on the east side of the barn near Spring Street, as shown on Figure 2, to assess groundwater quality in the vicinity of a former UST used for gasoline storage. Mr. Cordis Bean was on-site on the date of drilling, and indicated the approximately location of the former UST. Based on the inferred groundwater flow direction, BF-2 is believed to be downgradient (north) of the UST. Subsurface materials encountered at these locations were primarily fine sand with a little fine to coarse gravel. Groundwater was encountered at approximately eight feet below ground surface in this area. One-inch diameter groundwater monitoring wells were placed in borings BF-1 and BF-2. The well screens were placed to span the groundwater table to allow for detection of a separate phase floating petroleum layer, if present. Additional well construction details are provided on the boring logs in Appendix F. No gasoline odors, positive PID readings, or other indicators of gasoline impacts were observed at either location. 9.2.2 Former Solid Waste Fill Area Boring BF-3 was performed at the northern end of the old solid waste fill area, which is located west of the dirt road near the former orchard on the northern side of the property (see Figure 2). This boring was placed to be on the inferred downgradient (north) side of the fill. We attempted to install a monitoring well at this location to assess groundwater quality, however, the borehole repeatedly collapsed above the water table. Three attempts were made at adjacent locations, with collapse at the same depth in each case. Materials encountered at this location included approximately two feet of topsoil underlain by sand and gravel to approximately ten feet below grade. Grey clayey silt was present at approximately ten to twelve feet below grade, the maximum depth of exploration in this area. Because a monitoring well could not be installed in this area, we selected a soil sample collected from the water saturated zone to submit for laboratory analysis. The samples from this boring did not have detectable PID readings, indicating volatile organic compounds are not present at significant levels. A sample from the 10 to 12 foot depth obtained from BF-3 was analyzed for arsenic, lead, and pesticides at Con-Test Analytical Laboratory (Con-Test) of East Longmeadow, Massachusetts under chain-of-custody procedures. A copy of the laboratory report is provided in Appendix G. As shown on Table 2, arsenic and pesticides were not detected in the soil sample from BF-3. Lead was detected, but at a low level consistent with natural background. 9.2.3 Surface Soils in Former Orchard The ground surface was frozen on the date of our explorations. The Geoprobe rig was therefore used to collect surface soil samples from the former orchard area, which is currently an open field. The locations of shallow soil samples BF-4 through BF-7 are shown on Figure 2. These borings were placed to provide coverage of different portions of the former orchard. In each O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 19 E N G I N E E R I N G case, a sample was collected from approximately the upper twelve inches of material, and was submitted for laboratory analysis of lead, arsenic, and pesticides. A copy of the laboratory report is provided in Appendix E. Soil analytical results are summarized on Table 2. As shown, arsenic and dieldrin were detected in three of the four shallow soil samples at levels above MCP Reportable Concentrations (RCS-1). Dieldrin is a very persistent insecticide that was widely used in the 1950s to 1970s. Other pesticides were detected in Site soil, but at levels below RCS-1s, including 4,4’-DDD, 4,4’-DDE and 4,4’-DDT. Lead was detected in each sample at levels below the RCS-1, and, with the exception of BF-4, consistent with natural background levels in Massachusetts soil. 9.3 GROUNDWATER SAMPLING A groundwater sample was collected from monitoring well BF-2 on December 29, 2009. This well is located adjacent and on the presumed downgradient side of the former gasoline UST. The sample was collected using a pre-cleaned, single-use PVC bailer. Prior to sampling, approximately five times the volume of standing water in the well was removed to purge stagnant water and permit collection of a sample representative of formation water. The sample was submitted to Con-Test for volatile petroleum hydrocarbon (VPH) analysis, which is the MassDEP method used to detect gasoline-range petroleum constituents. It was also analyzed for semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) by EPA Method 8270C, including tentatively identified compounds. This method is capable of detecting multiple heavier petroleum constituents, such as might be associated with oils, as well as many pesticides. While Site history does not indicate pesticides would have been applied near the barn, they may have been stored and/or mixed in this area. A copy of the laboratory report is provided in Appendix E. Groundwater analytical data are summarized on Table 3. As shown, VPH and SVOCs were not detected. 10.0 OPINION AND CONCLUSIONS We have performed a Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessment in general conformance with the scope and limitations of ASTM Standards E1527-05 and E1903-02 of the property at 209 Spring Street in Northampton, Massachusetts, exclusive of the residence and barn abutting the residence. Any exceptions to, or deletions from this practice are described in Sections 2.4 and 10.0 of this report. Three Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) were identified during our Phase I assessment activities. Phase II activities were conducted to assess these RECS, as described in the following sections. 10.1 UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK A 100 gallon underground storage tank (UST) is located near the northeastern corner of the barn/shop near Spring Street. Use of the tank was reportedly discontinued when it was determined to be leaking, approximately 50 years ago. The tank is believed to remain below grade, unfilled. Field screening of soil samples and laboratory analysis of a groundwater groundwater sample O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 20 E N G I N E E R I N G from the UST area did not indicate the presence of gasoline. However, to come into compliance with Massachusetts tank regulations, and for safety considerations, we recommend the UST be removed. If possible, we recommend the UST be removed prior to closing, as the exact location of the UST is unknown, and the favorable groundwater testing does not preclude the presence of impacted soil. 10.2 PESTICIDES IN ORCHARD Pesticides were identified in shallow soil in the historic apple orchard area at the north end of the Site. The orchard was cut down in approximately 1970. The area is currently an open agricultural field. Arsenic and dieldrin were detected above Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP) Reportable Concentrations in soil samples collected from this area. In the absence of specific data on soil conditions within the two smaller orchard areas at the southern end of the Site, those areas should also be presumed to be impacted with lead, arsenic and organic pesticides. The MCP, at 310 CMR 40.0317(8)(c), contains an exemption from MassDEP notification for pesticides applied in a manner consistent with their labeling. Based on this historic use of this property as an orchard, the similar levels detected at the sample locations, this exemption likely applies to Site conditions. While we do not believe the orchard conditions represent a reportable release of oil or hazardous materials under state or federal regulations, the results may have public health implications depending on planned future of the of the property. We would be pleased to meet with the City to discuss these implications. 10.3 SOLID WASTE FILL AREA An abandoned private solid waste fill area is located at the north end of the property. The area was formerly a gulley, and was reportedly filled with household and farm debris such as cans, bottles and other trash. No disposal of hazardous materials in the area was reported, however, we presume that materials such as “empty” pesticide containers were disposed of here. Use of the area reportedly stopped approximately 30 years ago, when the area was covered with soil. For the most part, fill materials were therefore not visible during our Site reconnaissance. We were unable to install a groundwater monitoring well in this area due to subsurface conditions. A soil sample from the water saturated zone downgradient of the fill did not contain lead, arsenic or other pesticides at levels above Reportable Concentrations. However, the contents of the fill area are unknown, and there may be oil or hazardous materials present within the waste. Based on the limited visual indicators of fill area available due to soil cover, we estimate the fill covers a 20 foot by 80 foot area. If the fill is ten feet thick, there could be an estimated 300 cubic yards of solid waste in this area. We recommend you use caution in your future use of this area. If development of the fill area is planned, explorations should be conducted to further characterize the materials present. O’Reilly, Talbot & Okun [ A S S O C I A T E S ] 21 E N G I N E E R I N G 10.4 ADDITIONAL CONCERNS Additionally, the barn/shop near Spring Street is cluttered with a large volume of debris including drums, buckets, and smaller containers which may hold automotive fluids, pesticides, and/or other oil or hazardous materials. We did not have access to the barn interior for a complete reconnaissance, therefore the types and volumes of oil and/or hazardous materials present, if any, are unknown. We recommend you use care to properly dispose of these materials. 11.0 DEVIATIONS We are not aware of significant deletions or deviations from the ASTM E1527-05 practice used to prepare this report. We did not encounter significant data gaps in conducting our Phase I ESA report. 12.0 ADDITIONAL SERVICES Subsurface explorations conducted as part of this investigation are discussed in Section 9.0. Otherwise, no additional services outside of the ASTM E1527-05 practice were requested or have been performed in completing this this environmental site assessment. 13.0 REFERENCES FirstSearch Technology Corporation, Environmental FirstSearch Report, Target Property: Spring Street, Florence, Massachusetts.

The City of Northampton hopes to purchase. Occupant: Bean Family Form Completed By: Wayne Feiden Date: January 11, 2010 Representing: City of Northampton In order to qualify for one of the landowner liability protections (LLPs) offered by the Small Business Liability Relief and Brownfield Revitalization Act of 2001 (the “Brownfields Amendments”), the user must provide the following information (if available) to the environmental professional. Failure to provide this information could result in a determination that “all appropriate inquiry” is not complete. (1.) Are you aware of any environmental cleanup liens against the property that are filed or recorded under federal, tribal, state or local law? If “yes”, please list all that apply. NO we are not (2.) Are you aware of any Activity and Use Limitations (AULs), such as engineering controls, land use restrictions or institutional controls that are in place at the Site and/or have been filed or recorded in a registry under federal, tribal, state or local laws? If “yes”, please list all that apply. NO, we are not. Page 2 of 3 (3.) As the user of this ESA, do you have specialized knowledge or experience related to the property or nearby properties? For example, are you involved in the same line of business as the current or former occupants of the property or an adjoining property so that you would have specialized knowledge of the chemicals and processes used by this type of business? If “yes”, please explain. NO. (4.) a) Does the purchase price being paid for this property reasonably reflect the fair market value of the property? YES, we believe so. b) If you answered “no” to the above, do you believe that a lower purchase price is the result of either a known or suspected contamination at the property. If “yes”, please explain. (5.) Are you aware of commonly known or reasonably ascertainable information about the property that would help the environmental professional to identify conditions indicative of releases or threatened releases? For example, as user: Do you know of past uses of the property? If “yes”, please list. Property has been in farming for at least 150 years. This included an orchard along the Mill River, some apple trees closer to the road, a farm dump between two fields close to the river, and a report of an old gasoline tank abandoned in place at the barn closest to Spring Street. Do you know of specific chemicals that are or once were present at the property? If “yes”, what kind of chemicals? NO, but we know that the orchard was treated with herbicides and pesticides. Do you know of spills or other chemical releases that have taken place at the property? If “yes”, please list. NO, although the farm dump history is unknown to us. Do you know of any environmental cleanups that have taken place at the property? If “yes”, please list. NO. (6.) As the user of this ESA, based on your knowledge and experience related to the property, are there any obvious indicators that point to the presence or likely presence of contamination at the property? If “yes”, please explain. Page 3 of 3 The orchard, with whatever herbicides and pesticides that were applied, the historic farm dump, and the reported abandoned-in-place gasoline tank at the front barn are all a concern to us, although we don’t know the details and don’t know if there are any sites or spills.

SW-846 8270C Qualifications: Laboratory fortified blank duplicate RPD is outside of control limits. Reduced precision is anticipated for any reported value for this compound. Analyte & Samples(s) Qualified: Benzo(b)fluoranthene, Benzo(g,h,i)perylene, Benzo(k)fluoranthene 09L0724-01[BF-2], B008989-BLK1, B008989-BS1, B008989-BSD1 MADEP-VPH-04-1.1 No significant modifications were made to the method. All VPH samples were received preserved properly at pH <2 in the proper containers as specified on the chain-of-custody form unless specified in this narrative. SW-846 8270C Laboratory control sample recoveries for required MCP Data Enhancement 8270 compounds were all within control limits specified by the method, 40-140% for base/neutrals and 30-130% for acids except for “difficult analytes” listed below and/or otherwise listed in this narrative. Difficult analytes for water LCS – limits between 10 and 150% depending on the compound (see QC summary report for limits): dimethylphthalate, bis(2-chloroisopropyl)ether, 4-nitrophenol, and phenol. Duplicate laboratory fortified blank RPDs were all less than or equal to 20% for water or 30% for soil except for ”difficult analytes” where RPDs of 50% are used and/or otherwise listed below or elsewhere in this narrative. Difficult analytes for water RPDs: aniline, benzo(a,h)anthracene, dimethylphthalte, hexachloroethane, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, 2,4-dinitrophenol, 4-nitrophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, and pentachlorophenol. The results of analyses reported only relate to samples submitted to the Con-Test Analytical Laboratory for testing. I certify that the analyses listed above, unless specifically listed as subcontracted, if any, were performed under my direction according to the approved methodologies listed in this document, and that that based upon my inquiry of those individuuals immediately responsible for obtaining the information, the material contained in this report is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, accurate and complete.
