Phase I Environmental Site Assessment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Teutsch Partners LLC commissioned SoundEarth Strategies, Inc. to complete a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment of the Lona Vista Apartments Property located at 931 Broadway Avenue in Everett, Washington (the Property). The purpose of this environmental site assessment is to identify, to the extent feasible, recognized environmental conditions that may have resulted from the use, manufacture, storage, and/or disposal of hazardous or toxic substances that could affect the future acquisition and/or development of the Property. The scope of work included a review of historical documents regarding the Property, review of current federal and state lists citing known and potentially contaminated sites, interviews with present owners and site managers, a Property reconnaissance, and preparation of this report. Based on information reviewed in the course of this investigation and as discussed in appropriate sections of this report, the following development history was established for the Property. It appears that the Property was initially developed by 1947 with a single-family residence. A detached garage was constructed on the eastern portion of the Property by 1950. The residence and garage were demolished in 1963 and an apartment building was constructed on the Property. At the time of the Property visit, the Property was occupied by the Lona Vista Apartments. Adjoining properties include a mix of residential and commercial development. The following issues of potential environmental concern were identified during the course of our investigation: • The historical operation of a retail gasoline service station on the south-adjoining property. A retail gasoline service station operated on the south-adjoining property from 1960 through 1973. Limited impacts were reportedly observed in the course of a 2010 subsurface investigation conducted at the property by others. Approximately 34 cubic yards of petroleum contaminated soil was removed from the site in 2011. Groundwater was not encountered during the excavation. Ecology issued a determination of No Further Action for the site in 2012. Considering the regulatory closure and the lack of groundwater impacts, this former retail gasoline service station is not considered a recognized environmental condition. This executive summary is presented solely for introductory purposes and the information contained in this section should be used only in conjunction with the full text of this report. A complete description of the project, Property conditions, investigative methods, and investigation results is contained within this report. SoundEarth Strategies,Inc. ES-i February 16,2015
