2.1 PROJECT INFORMATION
Project Information
ITEM
Odic Environmental
Project Number 6355466-ESA II
Subject Property Address 3411 Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, California Drilling & Sampling Date November 14 & 15, 2013
ODIC’s Field Technician Danny Lightle, Environmental Consultant QA/QC Reviewer John Winkler, California Professional Geologist Property Location
The site is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and New York Avenue, in the City of Glendale, California.

Figure 1 illustrates the Site Location Map.

2.2 OBJECTIVE
The subject property consists of a commercial parcel of land developed with a single-story building. A steel canopy structure is to the south of the subject building. The property is occupied by an automobile repair and sales company.

A previous site reconnaissance and review of records identified that the property operated as a gas station from 1963 to approximately 1985. Closure documents were available regarding a 500-gallon waste oil underground storage tank (UST). Four 6,000-gallon gasoline USTs were reportedly removed from the subject property in 1987 with no fuel hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, or xylene detected in soil samples collected. Closure was obtained from the City of Glendale; however, testing for MTBE and fuel oxygenates was not done and no sampling was reported for the former fuel dispensers.

The subject property has been an automotive repair shop since 1960s. No records of subsurface investigation or soil tests near the underground clarifier (or oil/water separator) or in-ground hydraulic hoists were found from reasonably ascertainable sources.

The objective of this investigation was to assess soil conditions at the former waste oil tank, and determine the absence or presence of contamination with petroleum hydrocarbons and fuel constituents (including MTBE) from former fueling system (particularly fuel dispensers and piping) that existed until 1987. Additionally, this investigation included testing of soil near the clarifier and in-ground hoists for petroleum hydrocarbons, VOCs, heavy metals and PCBs.

2.3 SCOPE OF WORK
To accomplish this objective, ODIC performed the following tasks:

Pre-Field Activities:

Performed Site Visit to verify existing conditions and pre-mark boring locations and notified Underground Service Alert (USA) of the intent to excavate or drill, and used standard care to avoid potential damage to subsurface utilities. A Site-specific Health and Safety Plan (Level D Health & Safety according to OSHA CFR 1910.120, Boring Plan and Work-Schedule were prepared. Notified the owner and tenants of the proposed work schedule; 3411Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, CA 6355466ESAII

3.0 SUBJECT PROPERTY CHARACTERISTICS

3.1 SITE DESCRIPTION

3.1.1 Site Description
The subject property is addressed 3411 Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, California. It consists of a 22,647-square-foot irregular-shaped parcel of land, and is currently improved with a single-story 1,647-square-foot rectangular-shaped commercial building. A steel canopy structure is to the south of the subject building. The remainder of the property consists of an asphalt-paved yard/parking area. The property is occupied by an automobile repair and sales company. Access to the property is achieved from the south via Foothill Boulevard and from the east via New York Avenue. A site plan is included in Figure 2.

3.1.2 Historic Site Use
ODIC conducted a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment on the subject property dated October 10, 2013.

The subject building was constructed in 1963 and was originally occupied by a gas station which operated until at least 1985. A city of Glendale building record indicated that a clarifier was installed at the subject property sometime before 1964; this is indicative that the subject building operated as an auto repair facility in conjunction with gas station operations. The property has been used as auto repair and sales since approximately 1985.

Four (4) areas of concern (AOCs) have been identified at the Site as follows:

AOC #1: In-ground hydraulic lifts;
AOC #2: Three (3) Stage Clarifier;
AOC #3: Four (4) former 6,000 gallon gasoline USTs/and related fuel dispensers AOC #4: Former 500-gallon waste oil tank
The Property has been occupied by an automotive repair shop since 1960s. No records of subsurface investigation or soil tests near the underground clarifier (or oil/water separator) or in-ground hydraulic hoists were found from reasonably ascertainable sources (Odic Environmental Phase I ESA, October 2013).

Four 6,000-gallon gasoline underground storage tanks (USTs) were reportedly removed from the subject property in 1987 with no fuel hydrocarbons, benzene, toluene, or xylene detected in soil samples collected. Closure was obtained from the City of Glendale; however, testing for MTBE and fuel oxygenates was not done (it was not commonly tested for in the 1980’s). No sampling was reported for the former fuel dispensers.

On June 21, 2004, a 500 gallon waste oil UST was removed from the subject property; one soil sample was taken from below the tank invert (7.5’ bgs) and one sample from the excavated soil pile. Laboratory data shows that the tank bottom samples contain non-detectable or acceptable levels of BTEX, MTBE and total lead in the subsurface soil. However, elevated TRPH (oil) concentrations (up to 10,200ppm) were detected in the collected soil samples.

Because the excavated soil pile showed presence of TRPH in soil, the excavated soil pile was reportedly loaded into a truck and disposed of under non-hazardous manifest.

On September 24, 2009, six vent pipes in association with the former fuel and waste oil USTs were removed from the subject property. Six soil samples at a depth of approximately 2 feet beneath the bottom of the pipes were collected. All samples were analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons of carbon range C4-C40 using EPA Method 8015M and for VOCs using EPA Method 8260B. None of the samples collected and analyzed during this investigation contained detectable concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons, VOCs, or oxygenates.

Previous site data is included in Appendix A.

3.1.3 Geology and Hydrogeology
The Property's physical location was researched employing a United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 Minute Topographic Quadrangle (Quad) Map relevant to the Property. The Quad Map shows no physical features that may have environmentally impacted the Property. The Property and general area are identified as urban developed. No mines, wells, wetlands, or aboveground tanks were mapped in the general area of the Property. The elevation of the property is approximately 1,650 feet above mean sea level. There is a regional downslope to the south.

The site is located in the Verdugo Mountains, part of the San Gabriel Mountains complex within the Transverse Ranges Geomorphic Province of California. According to boring logs from the site, the soils consist of silt and sand with interbedded rock fragments to a depth of 30 feet. These sediments are underlain by undifferentiated metamorphic and granitic rocks at depth.

The site is located within the Verdugo Groundwater Basin. Depth to the groundwater at the nearest well, located approximately 3,000 feet to the south, was measured at approximately 78 feet bgs on November 27, 2007. The general direction of groundwater flow in the shallow aquifer beneath the site is expected to be southeasterly.

It is important to note that groundwater flow direction can be influenced locally and regionally by the presence of local wetland features, surface topography, recharge and discharge areas, horizontal and vertical inconsistencies in the types and location of subsurface soils, and proximity to water pumping wells. Depth and gradient of the water table can change seasonally in response to variation in precipitation and recharge, and over time, in response to urban development such as storm water controls, impervious surfaces, pumping wells, cleanup activities, dewatering, seawater intrusion barrier projects near the coast, and other factors. 3411Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, CA 6355466ESAII

4.0 FIELD INVESTIGATION

4.1 FIELD INVESTIGATION

4.1.1 Geophysical Survey
On November 14, 2013, a geophysical survey was performed at the site. The survey was completed by Pacific Coast Locators, Los Angeles, California. The purpose of the survey was to identify subsurface utilities, excavation backfill areas, and screen the site for possible unknown USTs. A combination of electromagnetic induction (EM), magnetometry, and ground penetrating radar (GPR) were applied to the search. A utility locator with line tracing capabilities was also brought to the field and used where risers exist onto which a signal could be impressed and traced. Site photographs are included in Appendix B.

Other than detected backfill material in the former UST location, no significant anomalies were detected. Survey methods are described in detail in the Geophysical Survey Report presented in Appendix C.

4.1.2 Soil Boring Investigation
To accomplish the stated objectives, ODIC performed the following field investigation activities:

Odic advanced nine (9) soil borings at the areas of concern locations. Figure 2 illustrates the boring locations. The following describes the boring and sample locations:

 On November 15, 2013, High Definition Drilling, Woodland Hills, California advanced four (4) borings using Hollow-Stem-Auger drilling rig at the site.
 All down-hole sampling equipment was cleaned before starting a soil boring with a non-phosphate detergent and water.
 Collected soil samples at 5-foot intervals in seven borings drilled to a maximum achievable depth of 30 feet. In addition, two borings were drilled for screening purposes only.  The soil borings were logged using the Unified Soils Classification System under the supervision of Odic Environmental’s California Professional Geologist (PG). All soil borings were screened in the field with a photoionization detector for the presence of volatile organic compounds. Readings are included on the soil boring logs (Appendix D).
 Submitted selected soil samples to State Certified American Scientific Laboratories, Los Angeles, California. Analyzed selected soil samples for chemicals of concern including total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) as gasoline, diesel and oil by EPA Method 8015B, VOCs including BTEX and Fuel Oxygenates by EPA 8260B, Title 22 CAM 17 heavy metals by EPA Method 6010/7000 series, and PCBs 3411Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, CA 6355466ESAII

by EPA Method 8082. All samples were submitted to a State of California Certified Laboratory using Chain of Custody Protocols.
 Each borehole was abandoned/filled with hydrated granular bentonite, and restored to pre-drilling condition via applying patching materials.

4.1.3 Methodology
Soil Boring and Sampling
On November 14, 2013, five (5) borings (SB1 through SB5) were advanced using truck-mounted Geoprobe drilling rigs by Interphase Environmental of Los Angeles, California. On November 15, 2013, four (4) borings (SB6 through SB9) were advanced using Hollow-Stem-Auger (HAS) drilling rig by High Definition Drilling, Woodland Hills, California. At each location, the concrete/asphalt surface cover was drilled or cored and the borings were advanced to the proposed target depth.

Soil samples were collected from five soil borings (SB1-SB5) with the Geoprobe Large Bore Sampler that measures 2 feet by 1.5 inches capable of recovering discrete samples that measures up to 320 mL in volume contained inside removable liners from specified locations. The liner is a thin-walled tube that fits inside the bore sample tube and facilitates retrieval of the sample and may be used for storage when applicable.

Soil samples were collected from three soil borings (SB6, SB7, SB9) via a truck mounted Hollow-Stem-Auger drilling rig equipped with 8-inch diameter auger. Soil samples were retrieved using a pre-cleaned 2-inch diameter modified California split-spoon sampler containing three 6-inch stainless steel sleeve liners. The sampler was advanced approximately 18-inches ahead of the auger into undisturbed soils at each interval. Two soil borings (SB8 and SB9) were advanced for screening only; only soil samples for descriptive purposes were collected.

No headspace is present in the liner tube once the sample is collected. Both ends of soil samples in tubes were then immediately covered with Teflon rounds, capped with polyethylene lids, and packed in ice chest (with ice for maintaining 4 Centigrade preservation temperature) to minimize potential volatilization prior to delivery to the laboratory.

The collected samples were labeled with the boring number, the sample number (the samples were numbered sequentially with increasing depth from the top for each boring), and the sampling depth. Care was taken throughout to avoid contamination of both the inside and outside of the sample container and its contents.

Soil samples were collected for descriptive purposes, and field screened via Photoionization Detector. The sample descriptions (soil characteristics, color, moisture, density) were recorded on the field log. Soil boring logs are included in Appendix D.

All collected soil samples were preserved in ice chest with ice to keep 4 Centigrade sample preservation temperature until shipment of samples within the same day of sample collection to a State Certified Hazardous Waste Laboratory, for analysis. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency approved chain-of-custody records was kept to track the possession of samples from the time they were taken in the field until the time they were analyzed. 3411Foothill Boulevard, Glendale, CA 6355466ESAII

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & RECOMMENDAnONS

Pinnacle Environmental, Inc. (PEl) was retained by Universal Bank (Client) to perform a Phase J Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA or Assessment) of a site located at 3421-3437 West Foothill Blvd. in Glendale, California. At the time of the May 6, 2008 site visit, the subject propelty consisted of an approximate 0.8-acre parcel of land, occupj(~d by two (2) single..story retail buildings. The subject buildings comprised a total of approximately 10,900 and 1,200 square feet respectively and housed 7 tenant spaces, uti lized by typical retail and service businesses (e.g., laundry, cleaners, barber, health store, market & restaurant). The subject property is located on the north side of Foothill Blvd., approximately 150 feet northwest of thc intersection of Foothill Boulevard and New York Avenue, within a commercial and multi-family residential area.

This Phase I ESA was performed in accordance with the scope and limitations of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Phase 1 ESA Standard £1527-2005 (equivalent to the USEPA's All Appropriate Inquiry [AA1] Standard), the scope of work defined in this report, as well as the signed service agreement. The following summarizes PEl's independent conclusions and best professional judgment based upon information available to us during the course of this Assessment.

Based upon the limited site reconnaissance, historical review, regulatory records review, and other information detailed within this report, this Assessment identified the following evidence of ASTM Recognized Environmental Conditions (REes) or other issues in connection with the subject property:
• The subject has been occupied by a dry cleaner, Palace Cleaners at 3423 Foothill Boulevard, conducting dry cleaning operations on-site since approximately .June of 1968.

The subject dry cleaner is listed on regulatory databases as under preliminary investigation for potential contribution to area groundwater impacts. These databases include the Wcll Investigation Program (WIP) database and the Spills, Leaks, Investigations, and Cleanup (SUC) Cost Rccovery Listing database. Thc property is also located upgradient to the San Fernando Valley Area 3 Superfund sitc. While there are not reported releases at the subject property, the listing of the subject property on these databases provides an opportunity for increased future regulatory scrutiny due to the presence of the on-site dry cleaner for the past 40 years. It also appears that the subject property was initially connected to an on-site septic. system until being connected to the city municipal sewer in April 1970. This presents an increased potential for impact of subsurface soils from dry cleaning solvents. Dry cleaners present an increased risk of environmentill impairment due to possible improper hazardous material and/or waste handling and disposal practices, particularly prior to passage of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act in J976 and its implementation several years later.

Although the current tenant appears to be handling and disposing of the dry cleaning chemicals in a propcr manner, it is unknown how such activities were handled in the past under different owners. Due to the nature of" the chemicals used in the drycleaning industry and unknown historical materials handling practices. identification of this Phase 1Environmel'tal Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmeetal, Inc 3421-3<137 W Foothill Boulevard; Glendale. CA Page .5
historic dryclcaning busincss rcprcsents a Recognized Environmcntal Condition as defined by the ASTM E- J527 standard. Therefore, PEl recommends a subsurface investigation in an effort to evaluate whether the subject property has been impacted by dry cleaning solvents.
+ Information from EDR indicates the nearest leaking underground storage tank (LUST) site, Texaco Station at 3411 W. Foothill Blvd., is located immediately adjoining southeast of the subject property. According to databasc information, a gasoline release was discovered at this sitc in December of 2005, the release is undefined, and the case status is "leak being confirmed." This site has not been tested for methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE). PEl reviewed a report on this site prepared by SAIC for Chevron that was submitted to the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) on May 15, 2007. According to the report, four fuel USTs were removed in 1985, and a 550­ gallon waste oil UST was removed in 2004. Other than sampling of soil beneath the former waste oil UST (which indicated low to moderate-level petroleum hydrocarbon impact), no records of sailor groundwater sampling were readily available for this property. This site is apparently under investigation by the LAR WQCB for potential contribution to area groundwater impacts, and it is possible additional investigation of the adjoining site will be requested by the LARWQCB. Given the proximity of this site, this is considered a potential REC. Although located immediately adjoining, based on the apparent down-gradient location of this site, it appears unlikely to have significantly environmentally impaired the subject property. However, if greater certainty is desired, a subsurface investigation could be performed on the subjcct property nearest the former gas station to confirm or deny this supposition.
• Based on the date of construction of the subject structure(s) (circa 1967) and the apparent age of the construction materials (pre-l 985), it is possible asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were used in construction of the subject structure(s) and/or added later. An asbestos survey completed by Environmental Monitoring Group (EMG) in April 2008, identified some or all of the vinyl Oooring and mastic, stucco, and plaster material at the subject buildings as containing asbestos. Refer to EMG's repOit in the appendix for specific findings and related recommendations. PEl generally concurs with EMG's recommendations.

During PEr s on-site observations suspect ACMs were identified, including, but not necessarily limited to: acoustic ceiling tiles, interior drywaWjoint compound and texture systems, vinyl flooring and mastic, tile grout, exterior stucco, mortar, and roofing materials. All observed materials appeared to be adequately maintained. Suspect ACM testing was not included in PEl's scope of work. However, as defined in NESHAPs Section 61.141, the observed materials may be classified as suspect regulated ACtvls.

Prior to any demolition, renovation, or any other activity that may disturb these materials, either an inspection should be performed by an accredited Building Inspector, or the affected materials should be handled as asbestos-containing. An approved Operations and Maintenance (O&!vl) Program is required to maintain the known ACMs and any untested materials in-place.

Pha~c I Environmental Site Assessment Plllmclc Environmental, Inc. 3421-3437 W Foothill Boulevard; Glendale. CA Page 6
• PEl's scope of work did not include a lead-based paint (LBP) inspection, surveyor assessment. However, based upon the age of the subject building(s) (circa 1967), it is possible that lead-based paint (LBP) was used. Damaged, chipping, flaking, or peeling paint was not observed. In 1978, the federal government limited the use of LBP, particularly in residential applications. Although usage was allowed to continue in many commercial settings, usc in gcneral industry has decreased from that period of time to the present.

LBP presents a hazard primarily when lead dust or fumes are created. Renovation or repair activities and normal wear and tear are the primary causes of LBP dust and fume creation. Effective in 1993, thc Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Lead in Construction Standard (29 CFR 1926.62), applies to sources or potential sources of lead exposure present in an "employment-related" context. The trigger for application of the standard is an activity that by its very nature may cause exposure to lead (i.e., sanding, scraping, demolition, etc.). Such work must also be performed by certified personnel that have received Lead In Construction training. Should future renovation, repair, or demolition disturb any suspect paint (all untested paint), a LBP inspection and/or risk assessment should be conducted by a state or EPA certified LBP inspector/assessor to identify areas of potential worker exposure. Additionally, if in California, CCR Title 17 states that "lead hazards" (e.g. deteriorated LBP, leadcontaining dllSt, disturbance of LBP without proper controls, etc.) are not allowed in any public (non-residential or industrial) building. Please consult with an appropriate certified lead professional for further details regarding the above issues and their specific application to the subject property.

An Executive Summary Overview is also included in the previous section. However, when making any decisions concerning the findings of this Assessment, please also refer to the remainder of this report, which may present other items of interest that are not discussed in the Executive Summary, or further details regarding the above items. In addition, please refer to the Data Gaps section (IV-H) of this report regarding information that may have been unavailable or incomplete which may have a bearing on the findings or usage ofthis report.

SCOPE OF WORK & LIMITATIONS

PURPOSE
'fhe primary goal of this Phase I Environmental Site Assessment is to assist the client in satisfying one of the requirements to qualify for the "innocent landowner, contiguous property owner, or bona fide prospective purchaser limitations on CERCLA liability" (42 U,S,c. § 9601 et. seq.). Qual ification for these Iimitations is predicated on the assumption that" ... the defendant must have undertaken, at the ttme of acquisition, all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the property consistent with good commercial or customary practice in an effort to minimize liability ...." The secondary goal of this Assessment is to provide information that 'will assist in evaluating the risk of potential significant value impairment of the security interest due to environmental impacts.

PROTOCOL
The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Phase I ESA Standard E1527-2005 is the most current method used in attempting to perform the due diligence required to achieve the above purpose. The E1527-2005 Standard was created by the ASTM " ... in an effo11 to define good commercial and customary practice in the United States of America for conducting an environmental site assessment.. .. " and is equivalent to the USEPA's All Appropriate Inquiry [AAI] Standard issued November 1, 2005 (officially taking effect November 1, 2006). The ASTM Standard E1527-2005 is intended to identify recognized environmental conditions (RECs) in connection with a given property. The term recognized environmental conditions is not intended to include "de minimus" conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm or that are unlikely to be the subject of enforcement actions by govemmental agencies. Other conditions or issues that are beyond the ASTM scope may also be discussed in this report, as detailed within each section.

SCOPE OF WORK
Utilizing ASTM Standard E1527-2005, as well as the scope of work discussed below and in the work authorization document, this Assessment involved: i\ site reconnaissance of the subject property, limited observations of adjoining properties, a review of the historical usage of the subject property, and a review of relevant documentation provided by various public and private sources (including the client and/or owner of the subject property) to identify conditions indicative of releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, as defined in CERCLA Section 101 (14) U.S.C. § 312.1(c) evaluate the presence or likely existence of:
• Recognized environmental conditions, specified by ASTM E1527-2005 as: '·the presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products Phase I EnVironmental Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmental. Inc 3421-34J7 W Foothill BOlllcl'nrd; Glendale. CA Page 8
into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater or surface watcr of the property."
• A brief evaluation and assessment of potential environmental issues which may not rise to the level of recognized environmental conditions, such as: obviously improper hazardous material or waste handling, off-site issues, suspect asbestoscontaining materials, lead-based paint, polychlorinated bi-phenyls, and radon gas.

LIMITATIONS
As discussed in ASTM EI527-2005, no Phase I ESA can completely eliminate uncertainty regarding the potential for RECs in connection with a subject property. This investigation is simply intended to reduce unce11ainty within reasonable limits of time and cost.

Refer to Section VI-A for a brief discussion of some (but not necessarily all) specific limitations to PEl's subject property observations at the time of the site visit. The observations contained within this Assessment are based upon conditions readily observable during the site visit. These observations are typically unable to address conditions of areas not inspected, hidden from view, subsurface soil, groundwater, underground storage tanks, neighboring propel1ies, and the like, unless specifically mentioned. It is not the purpose of this Assessment to determine the actual presence, or degree or extent of contamination (if any) at the subject property. Unless specifically noted within this rcport, this Assessment does not include observations, testing, coring, or sampling analysis to address groundwater, soil, or extraneous materials contamination (including mold issues) in or on the subject propel1y. This Assessment does not include or address reasonably ascertainable environmental liens recorded against the subject property, unless stated.

PEl makes no warranties or guarantees as to the accuracy or completeness of information obtained from or compiled by others. Information may also exist which was beyond the scope of this investigation, or was not provided to PEl that may have an impact on the conclusions of this Assessment. This Assessment does not attempt to address past or forecast future site cond itions.

This Assessment has been conducted and prepared in accordance with generally accepted practices and procedures exercised by reputable professionals under similar circumstances.

PEl makes no other warranties or guarantees, either expressed or implied, as to the findings, opinions, or recommendations contained in the report, or as to the existence or non-existence of RECs at the subject property.

GENERAL SITE DESCRIPTION

Pinnacle EnvironmentaL Ine. (PEl) was retained by Universal Bank (Client) to perform a Phase I E.nvironmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA or Assessment) of a site located at 3421-3437 West Foothill Blvd. in Glendale, California. At the time of the May 6,2008 site visit, the subject propel1y consisted of an approximate 0.8-acre parcel of land, occupied by two (2) single-story retail buildings. The subject buildings comprised a total of approximately 10,900 and 1,200 square feet respectively and housed 7 tenant spaces, utilized by typical retail and service businesses (e.g., laundry, cleaners, barber, health store, market & restaurant).

The subject property's Los Angeles County Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) is 5602-007­ 020. The subject propelty is located on the north side of Foothill Blvd., approximately 150 feet northwest of the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and New York Avenue, within a commercial and multi-family residential area. The subject property location is shown on various Figures in the appendix.

During the site visit, which was performed by public access methods, the PEl Assessor was unaccompanied. However, the site broker, Mr. Albert Mangassarian, was notified in advance of the visit and permission for site access was granted to PEl.

Mr. Brian G. George, Manager of the subject property, was identified as the "Key Site Manager" (KSM). As defined by ASTM E1 527-2005, the Key Site Manager is that person having good knowledge of the uses and physical charaeteristics of the subject property, and in a position to provide reasonably accurate information for the Key Site Manager Environmental Questionnaire. Mr. George eompleted the Key Site Manager Environmental Questionnaire prior to the site visit. A copy of the questionnaire is ineluded in the appendix of this report.

Potential RECs identified as a result of the questionnaire review included a "Yes" answer to Question #5 regarding a fonner Texaco gasoline station on the southeast adjoining property.

However, he did not indicate that the subject propelty had an active dry cleaner operating onsite. No further details were provided by the KSM. In addition, the KSM indicated that a prior April 14, 2008 Asbestos Survey report for the subject property was provided (sec Section lIr-A below).

A. CLIENT PROVIDED INFORMATION
As discussed in ASTM EI527-2005, the user (e.g., Client) is required to perform certain tasks or provide cel1ain information to PEl in order to identify potential RECs. Tasks or information to be provided by the Client include: I) review of judicial and title records for environmental liens, environmental deed restrictions or activity and use limitations (AULs); 2) provide specialized, actual, commonly known or reasonably aseertainable knowledge Pha,e Pinnacle Environmental, Inc I Environmemal Site Assessment 3421-3A37 Page 10 \II Foothill Boulevard; Glendale, CA
regarding the property; and, 3) identify reasons for a significantly lower purchase price (if applicable).

The Client has not provided or reported to PEl any information which indicates the subject property is being sold, purchased or valued at a significantly reduced price due to outstanding environmental issues. Nor has the Client or Key Site Manager provided or reported to PEl information indicating a specific knowledge of RECs, historic RECs, Environmental Liens, Activity and Usc Limitations, or Environmental Deed Restrictions related to the subject property.

Previous environmental documentation concerning the subject property which was provided to PEl by the Client includes: an April 4, 2008 Limited Report for Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACM) by Environmental Monitoring Group (EMG). That report indicated the following materials were located on-site (directly excerpted):

The above discussion is only a brief summary of the information that is found in the full rcport(s) listed above. The report(s) should be read in their entirety to obtain a more complete undcrstanding of the information providcd, and to aid in any decisions or actions that may be made or taken based on that information. PEl assumes the information in the report(s) is accurate, unless specifical1y stated.

No other previous environmental documentation (Phase I ESAs, Phase II ESAs, etc.) conccrning the subject property was provided to PEl or reported to exist by the Client or Key Site Manager. It is possible information contained in prior reports (if any) could change PETs conclusions or recommendations herein. If previous environmental documentation becomes available to the Client or subject property owner, a copy should be provided to PEl for review. PEl reserves the right to alter its conclusions herein based upon such new information.

Since PEl cannot give legal advice or review these documents for potential legal issues, it may also be prudent to have appropriate legal counsel review these documents.

In addition, as discussed in ASTM EI527-2005, infonnation previously reviewed by another consultant is not required to be re-researched as long as that infonnation is believed to be accurate and completed in accordance with the AAI procedures and is not contradicted by new documentation. In the preparation of this report, PEl may have used certain information prcsented in the previous rcport(s), with verification or new research performed where appropriate. Reference is provided in the relevant section where such infonnation is used.

B. ADJOINING AND ADJACENT PROPERTIES
As discussed in ASTM E1527-2005, an adjoining property is any real property whose border is contiguous or partially contiguous with the subject property, or would be if the properties were not separated by a roadway, street or other public thoroughfare. For the purposes of this reporl, an adjacent property is any real property located within approximately one block or less of the subject property's border.

Specifically, the subject property is bordered by the following:

Northeast: Immediately by a park, containing subterranean Glendale utilities equipment and facilities, then by apparent residential dwellings.

Southeast: Immediately by a commercial-use property occupied by an auto sales business (3411 W. Foothill Blvd., formerly a Texaco gas station), then by the intersection of Foothill Blvd. and New York Ave.

Southwest: Immediately by Foothill Blvd., then by commercial-use properties, including auto service and a retail center (with dry cleaner).

Northwest: Immediately by eommercial-use properties including retail and auto service, then by Frederick Street.

C. USGS TOPOGRAPHIC MAP
The subject property's physical setting was researched employing a United States Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 Minute Topographic Quadrangle (Quad) Map relevant to the subject propelty. The USGS 7.5 Minute Quad Map has an approximate scale of 1 inch to 2,000 feet. and shows physical features such as wetlands, roadways, mines, and buildings. The USGS

7.5 Minute Quad Map was used as the Standard Physical Setting Source, and is sufficient as a single reference. A copy is included in the appendix.

The most recent Burbank, California Quad Map (dated 1994) shows no physical features that are likely to environmentally impact the subject property. The subject property is identified as unspecified urban developed land (pink shading). No mines, wells, aboveground storage tanks, or wetlands were depicted in the immediate area of the subjeet property. The elevation of the subject property is approximately 1,660 to 1,670 feet above mean sea level with a moderate topographic gradient to the south.

D. GENERAL HYDROGEOLOGIC CHARACTERISTICS
The general area of the subject propelty is located within the extreme eastern edge of the San fernando Valley (within the local Verdugo Basin), which generally consists of alluvial fans extending southward from the San Gabriel Mountains to the north, and westward from a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmental, Inc. 3421-3437 W. FoothJill3oulcvard; Glendale. CA Page 13
series of hills to the east. The subsurface features of the alluvial fans are related to erosion of the surround ing hills and mountains, resulting in the deposition of deep layers of alluvial deposits.

Although site-specific groundwater information for the subject property was unavailable, according to information obtained [rom the State Water Resources Control Board's on-line Geotracker database (www.geotracker.swrcb.ca.gov). the closest LUST site with available on-line groundwater data (Mobil #11-1PL [Glendale] at 3200 W. Foothill Blvd., located approximately one-third mile southeast of the subject property) indicates a reported depth to first groundwater of approximately ] 16-136 feet below ground surface. The available on-line data also indicates a general southerly direction of groundwater flow at that site. However, local groundwater can be influenced by several factors, and may not conform to the reported nearby pattern. Shallower perched groundwater zones may also occur.

SECTION IV.

HISTORICAL REVIEW

Thc site historical review is used to develop an understanding of the previous uses of the subject property and surrounding area in an effort to identify the likelihood of past uses. or activities having environmentally impacted, the subject property. The historical review consisted of a search of various public and privatc Standard Historical Sources, as detailed in the sections below.

As dcflllcd by ASTM E1527-2005, a Standard Historica I Source is considered complete if the information containcd within the source identifies all uses of the subject property from the time thc property was first used for residential, agricultural, commercial, industrial or governmental purposes. Ideally, the information should be available in either five-year intervals or sitc milestone events (i.e., initial construction activities. demolition activities. etc.). Howevcr, available public and private historical sources do not always fulfill this goal, in which case, the closest approximation is made based upon the sources readily available at the time of historical revie\v.

Historical Rel'iefv Summarv: From the historical information review discussed below, PEl concludes that the subject propelty was undeveloped from at least 1938 until at least 1967-68; however, it is possible a former residence located at 3433 Foothill Boulevard, may have been located on the subject property in the 1950s, although this was not confirmed from the sources reviewed. The subject property was initially structurally developed in 1967-68 with the two (2) subject structures (3421-3437 W. Foothill Blvd.) and one (I) additional structure.

This one (I) additional structure (3419 \Y. Foothill Blvd.) has since been removed. Most of the outlying propelties also appear to have been structurally developed during the 1950s with single- and multi-family structures. Most of the adjoining properties appear to have been developed in the 1960s and 1970s. Prior to the 1950s, most orthe neighboring properties were undeveloped land. No gasoline stations, major landfills, military bases, manufacturing facilities, or heavy industrial businesses were identified on the subject property.

A. AERIAL PHOTOGRAPH REVIEW
Aerial photographs were reviewed to evaluate past land-use patterns of the subject property and vicinity. The photos were supplied by Rupp Aerial Photo (1938, 1952, 1972, and 1985) and provided by the GlobeExplorer website (1989, 1994, and 2000) and the LivcSearch website (w\vw.maps.live.com, 2004 only). Copies of representative aerial photographs are included in the Site Maps appendix. This review revealed the following:
1938: The subject propelty appears undcveloped with numerous trees. The surrounding land usage also appears primarily undeveloped with some trees:
and apparent scattered single-family dwellings. Northeast, Northwest, and Southeast: immediately and further by undeveloped land. Southwest:
immediately by Foothill Blvd., then by orchards.

Phase I Environmcnl<:ll Sile Assessment Pinnack Environmental, loe 3421-3437 W Foothill Boulevard. Glendale. CA Page 15
1952: The subject property is covered with a dense canopy of tree growth. Due to the poor clarity of the photograph, it is unclear whether a smal I structure (e.g., residence noted in the building permit record at 3433 Foothill Blvd) is located on the site. Conditions at the most immediate adjoining properties appear similnr to those observed in the 1938 aerial photograph. A tract of homes is notcd to the northeast and somewhat greater dcvelopment is noted in the general area.
1972: The subject property appears developed with three commercial-type structures. The surrounding land usage also appears developed similar to the current usages. Northeast: immediately by a park, then by apparent multi.. family dwellings. Southeast: immediately by an apparent commercial-type structure (possible gas station), then by the intersection of Foothill Blvd. ancl New York Av. Southwest: immediately by Foothill Blvd., then by apparent pre-developed (graded) land. A possible gas station is noted to the south·· southeast. Northwest: immediately and further by commercial-type structures.
1985: Conditions at the subject property and adjoining properties appear similar to those observed in the 1972 aerial photograph, with the exception being the southwest property (across Foothill Blvd.) is now commercial developed. 1989: Conditions at the subject propeliy and adjoining properties appear similar to those obscrved in the 1985 aerial photograph.
1994: Conditions at the subject property and adjoining properties appear similar to those observed in the 1989 aerial photograph, with the exception that the:
building at the southeast corner of the subject property appears to have been removed.
2000: Conditions at the subject property and the adjoining properties appear similar to those observed in the 1994 aerial photograph.
2004: The subject property is occupied by the subject development and parking similar to that observed during the site visit. The surrounding land usage is also similar to that observed during the site visit.

B. BUILDING PERMIT REVIEW
In an effort to evaluate the official construction and demolition history of the subject properly, PEl reviewed city of Glendale Building Department (GBD) information for the subject propeli)' addresses. The following information was obtained:

Although information concerning tenant improvements/alterations and other miscellaneous modifications for the existing development was located during the research, this data did not contain information relevant to this Assessment. In addition, no other past demolition or underground storage tank (UST) documentation for the subject property was located as a resu It of th is search.

In a fUliher effort to evaluate the development history of the subject property, PEl reviewed Los Angeles County Assessor's (LACA) information obtained from the LACA's website (http://maps.assessoLlacounty.gov). Review of this information indicated the Assessor's Parcel Number for the subject property is 5602-007-020; the parcel consists of approximately

0.8 acres; the subject property is cuo'ently improved with an approximate 10,900 square foot structure built in 1967-68 and an approximate 1,200 square foot structure also built in 1967­ 68; and the Property Type is identified as CommerciallIndustrial. No other information significant to this report was obtained from the Assessor's data.

C. SANBORN FIRE INSURANCE MAP REVIEW
PEl attempted to review Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps for the area of the subject property as provided by EDIt Sanborn Maps are detailed drawings that show the location and use of structures on a given property during specific years. These maps were originally utilized by insurance companies to assess fire risk, but are now utilized as a valuable source of historical and environmental-risk information. However, according to EDR, no maps were available for the subject property.

D. CITY STREET DIRECTORY REVIEW
PEl reviewed available historical city street directories at the Sherman Library in Corona Del Mar, California and the Haines Library in Fullerton, California in an effort to evaluate the prior uses and occupancies of the subject property address initially provided to PEl by the Client at the st3l1 of the project. City street directories list property occupants by address, allowing an historical search of tenants on the subject property. That review revealed the following information:

In addition to the city directories above, PEl reviewed Certificate of Occupancies for the subject property addresses 3419 through 3437 available from the Glendale Building Dept.

Other than Palace Cleaners, no current or former occupants were observed that appeared to handle significant (if any) quantities of hazardous materials.

E. HISTOIUCAL TOPOGRAPHIC MAP REVIEW
Based upon the other significant historical sources available, historical topographic maps were not reviewed for the subject property.

F. INTERVIEWS
As specified in ASTM E 1527-2005, interviews will be conducted with parties including present land owners and occupants, past land owners and occupants, and adjoining property owners, as appropriate and as available. PEl interviewed the following parties during the course at" this Assessment:

PEl interviewed Mr. Brian George, manager of Bershon Realty Co. LP, the owner of the subject property, via the Key Site Manager Questionnaire, in an effort to obtain information regarding the current and former uses of the subject property. 1\1r. George Pinnacle Environmental. Inc.
3421·3437 W FOOlhilllloulcvard; Glendale, CA Page 19
Phase I EIlVlf<lnl1lcntal Site Assessmc11l
stated that the subject property was acquired by the current owner in approximately 1963. Mr. George reported that the subject property was undevcloped land prior to construction of the current structures in 1967 (main retail) and 1990 (Pizza Hut). Mr.

George was unaware of any hazardous material contamination from the current operations or from past subject propcIiy usage.

G. RECORDED LAND TITLE RECORDS
As specified in ASTM EI527-2005, recorded land titles are records usually maintained by the municipal or county recorder of deeds which detail ownership fces, leases, land contracts, easements, and othcr cncumbrances attached to or recorded against the subject property. Due to state land trust regulations and laws, land-title records typically only provide trust names, owner's names, or easement holders, and not information concerning previous uses or occupants of the subject propeliy. Therefore, this Assessment has relied upon other standard historical information sources which are typically more informative than recorded land titles.

The Client has not provided recorded historical land title records or an environmental liens search for PEl's review or requested that such a search be performed.

The Client provided PEl with a Preliminary Title Report dated April 15, 2008 for the subject property issued by North American Title Company. Such a repOIi typically does not list all documents related to the subject propeliy, simply those that the title insurer wants to exclude from coverage andlor that are of potential interest to the transaction. Preliminary title reports are also one method to generally fulfill the environmental liens search required by the ASTM E1527-2005 standard. The title report included the following items of potential note:

Schedule B/ltem #5: March 6, 1963 Ground Lease between Schroer, et al and Texaco, Inc.

This purpose of the lease was not stated in this document. In reviewing the building permits from the city of Glendale, Texaco received a building permit to construct a gas station on the southeastern adjoining property, 3411 Foothill Boulevard, on August 27, 1963. It is likely the leased area for the gas station was part of a larger parcel which now includes the subject property. The gas station currently occupies a parcel with the APN # 5602-007-021 which is apparently not included as part of the current subject property (APN # 5602-007-020).

Additional information regarding the historical ownership relationship between the subject property and the southeastern adjoining parcel was not conducted as part of this assessment.

A review of the historical ownership of the two parcels and potential environmental liability related to the former gas station operated by Texaco but ground-leased from an apparent subject property owner is a legal question. If additional information/research related to this issue is needed, PEl recommends the Client seek appropriate legal counsel.

No other obvious issues that would significantly environmentally impact the subject property \vcre noted from this review. In addition, neither environmental liens, environmental deed restrictions. nor activity or use limitations related to environmental issues were reported. PEl Phase I Envlfollll1clltal Sitc Asscssmcnt Pinnacle Environmcntal, Inc. 3421-3437 W Foothill Boulevard; GJc.ndule. CA Pagc 20
did not review the title report for potential non-environmental issues that may affect the property, and is 110t providing a legal opinion as to the contents of the report.

H. DATAGAPS
As specified in ASTM E1527-2005, data gaps are defined as "a lack or inability to obtain information required by the standards and practices listed in the regulation despite good faith efforts by the Environmental Professional or prospective landowner to gather such information". Data failure occurs when historical research does not identify standard historical sources that are "reasonably ascertainable" and "likely to provide useful information to identify prior uses of the property". Per ASTM EI527-05, the assessment must document data failure and give reasons why historical sources were not available or excluded (if applicable).

Based 011 PEl's research, no data gaps that are likely to prevent PEl from reaching a conclusion were identified.

SECTION V.

AGENCY RECORDS REVIEW

In an effort to evaluate whether the subject property and/or nearby sites have reported USTs, hazardous waste generation, or hazardous material releases, regulatory information from the federal, state, and local agencies listed below were reviewed. The database report was compiled and provided by Environmental Oata Resources, Inc. (EOR) and is reportedly the most recent database information available from each agency. A copy of the EOR report is included in the appendix. According to EOR, their search of the various databases conforms to ASTM E1527-2005 Standards. However, EOR indicates the accuracy of the information provided by thc agencies is not without cnor or omission, and the information listed is limited to that which was reported to or gathered by that agency. A limited discussion of the number of sites identificd, and of their potential impact to the subject property, follows this page. In addition, PEl may request state and/or local regulatory agency information for the subjcet properly, targeting those agencies most likely to provide information useful for this Assessment. The primary databases reviewed and their general search range criteria are below:

A. REVIEW OF FEDERALLY REPORTED ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
The review of the federal environmental databases listed below attcmpts to identify environmental problem sites, activities, and occurrences from the records of the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The detailed listing, and a map showing the location of the sites relative to the subject property, is included in the appendix.

Nationalllriorities List (NPL) of Superfund Sites:

The NPL is the USEPA's database of hazardous waste sites currently identified and targeted for priority cleanup action under the Superfund program. This search includes Proposed NPL sites, Delisted NPL sites, and NPL Recovery sites.

NPL sites may encompass relatively large areas. As such, EDR provides polygon coverage for the site boundaries (for a majority of the NPL sites), as produced by EPA's Environmental Photographic Interpretation Centcr (EPIC) and regional EPA offices. A search of the NPL database identified the following number of Superfund sites within the specified database search range:

Number of Sites Number Listed at
Subject Property
One (1) None
This site, San Fernando Valley Area 3, is listed on the NPL database, and is plotted as located just under 1 mile southeast of the subject property. F1lI1her review indicates it has since been delisted from the NPL database in 2004. This site is also found on the CERCUS, FINDS, ROD, US ENG Controls, ENVIROSTOR, HIST Cal-Sites, and Cortese databases as a result of regional groundwater impact resulting from various historical industrial sources in the Phd5f" I Envtronmenlal SIte Asse~srncnt Pinlla.:-k Environmental, Inc 3421·3437 W Foolhill Boulcv3,d; G1cnd31c, CI\ Page 23
region. Based on the location of the subject property within an area of reported impact, it is likely groundwater beneath the subject property has been impacted.

However, contaminated groundwater in the general area of the subject propetty is not utilized as a source of drinking water that is provided to area residents/property occupants if the contaminant levels exceed the State's drinking water guidelincs.

National Priorities List Liens (NPL Liens):

The NPL Liens database contains a list of filed notices of Federal Superfund Liens. Under the authority granted the USEPA by CERCLA of 1980, the USEPA has the authority to file liens against real property in order to recover remedial action expenditures or whcn the property owner reccived notification of potential liability. A search of the NPL Liens database identified the following number of sites within the specified database search range:

B. REVIEW OF STATE-REPORTED ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
Results of the state regulatory records search follow. Each section begins with a general description of the databases searched and the corresponding responsible state or local agency. The detailed listing, and a map showing the location of the sites relative to the subject property, is included in the appendix.

State Hazardous Waste Site (SHWS) Databases:

State Hazardous Waste Site records are the states' equivalent to CERCUS. The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) Hist Cal-Sites database contains potential or confirmed hazardous substance release properties. The Calsites PhaSl": 1 Elwironlllcmal Sit(, t\ssc.ssment PlIlnac!e Environmental, Inc 3421-3437 W Fooll,,11 noukvard, (,lendale, CA Page 2R
database was created by the Department of Toxic Substances and Control (DTSC), but DTSC no longer up-dates the Calsites database. Thc Calsites database was replaced by the EnviroStor database (see EnviroStor section below).

The CA Bond Expenditure Plan database contains the Department of Health Services site-spccific expenditure plan, which is the basis for an appropriation of Hazardous Substance Cleanup Bond Act funds. A search of the State Hazardous Wastc Site database(s) identified the following number of sitcs within the specified database search range:

Cortese Database:

The Cortese list contains hazardous waste and substance sites compiled pursuant to Assembly Bill 3750 (Cortese, Chapter 1048, Statutes of 1986). The information included in this list was compiled with information from the California DTSC, the State Water Resources Control Board, and the California Waste Management Board. This database contains primarily LUST sites, although other types of sites may be included. A search of the Cortese database identified the following number of sites within the specified search range:

IIlforlllation from EDR indicates these sites are all identified as LUST sites and discussed in the LUST section below.

PIi,t",1 Environmental Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmenlal, illc 3421-3·117 W Foothill flouil'vard; Glcndidc. CA Page 29 Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUSTs):

State and/or local agencies maintain inventories of LUSTs (also known as LTANKS) in a statewide database. A search of the LUST database identified the following number of reported LUST sites within the specified search range:

Number of Sites Number Listed at
Subject Property
Seven (7) None
Information from EDR indicates the nearest LUST site, Texaco Station at 341 I W. Foothill Blvd., is located immediately adjoining southeast of the subject propel1y. According to database information, a gasoline release was discovered at this site in December of 2005, the release is undefined, and the case status is "leak being confirmed." This site has not been tested for methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE). PEl reviewed a report on this site prepared by SAIC for Chevron that was submitted to the LARWQCB on May 15, 2007. According to the report, four fuel USTs were removed in 1985, and a 550-gallon waste oil UST was removed in 2004. Other than sampling of soil beneath the fonner waste oil UST (which indicated low to moderate-level petroleum hydrocarbon impact), no records of soil or groundwater sampling were readily available for this property.

This site is apparently under investigation by the LARWQCB for potential contribution to area groundwater impacts, and it is possible additional investigation of the adjoining site will be requested by the LARWQCB. Given the proximity of this site, this is considered a potential REC. Although located immediately adjoining, based on the apparent down-gradient location of this site, it appears unlikely to have significantly environmentally impaired the subject property. However, if greater certainty is desired, a subsurface investigation could be performed on the subject property nearest the former gas station to confirm or deny this supposition.

The next closest site is Tosco 76 Station at 3402 W. Foothill Blvd. This site is located over 380 feet southeast of the subject property and is a closed case. The remaining sites are located over 1,065 feet from the subject property and have varying status. Based upon the distance from the subject property, regulatory status, and/or cross- to down-gradient location with respect to the inferred direction of groundwater flow (southerly), it appears unlikely these remaining listed LUST sites have significantly environmentally impaired the subject propel1y.

Sjate/Lo(~al Spills Databases:

The Spills, Leaks, Investigations, and Cleanup (SLIC) Cost Recovery Listing program is designed to protect and restore water quality from spills, leaks, and Phase I EnVironmental Sitc Assessment Pinnacle Environmental, Inc. 3421·3437 W Foothill Boulcvard; Glcndale, C/\ Page 30

The database(s) included in this section are the states' equivalent to the ERNS report and generally contain information for reported hazardous matcriallwaste surface or groundwater contamination release investigations reported in that state or locality. The California Hazardous Material Incident Report System (CHMIRS) database contains information on reported hazardous waste material incidents (accidental releases or spills). A search of these databases identified the following number of sites within the specified database search range:

Foothill Blvd. is identified as a SUC site. SUC database information indicates there was a Volatile Organic Compound (YOC) release and the Facility Status is <Lcase open". with a file number of 116.0013. PEl's review of this file is discussed in Section Y-C below.

The nearest additional site, Superior Cleaners at 3448 W. Foothill Blvd., is located approximately 120 feet south (across Foothill) of the subject property.

SUC database information indicates there was a YOC release and the Facility Status is "reopen previously closed case."
The remaining sites are located over 680 feet from the subject property. Based upon the distance from the subject property, andior eross- to down-gradient location with respect to the inferred direction of groundwater now (southerly), it appears unlikely these remaining listed SUC sites have significantly environmentally impaired the subject property. However, some of these sites may have contributed to the regional groundwater impact discussed in the NPL section above.

Undcrground Storage Tanks (USTs)iAboveground Storagc Tanks (ASTs):

USTs arc regulated under Subtitle I of the RCRA (as well as various state regulations), and must be registered with the State Underground Storage Tank Program. These are registered USTs only, and identification on this list(s) does not necessarily indicate that the site has impacted the environmenl. This search includes review of the Active UST Facilities (UST) database, Facility Inventory Database (C/\ FID UST), Hazardous Substance Storage Container Databasc (HIST UST), and SWEEPS UST Listing database (SWEEPS liST). Also potentially im:luded in this section are sites identified on historic UST databases that arc no longer maintained. The AST database is the State Water Resources Control Board's Hazardous Substance Storage Container Database for registered ASTs. A search of the UST and AST dalabase(s) identified the following number I'h",e I Environmemal Site Assessment Pinna"'e Environment"I, Inc ).121·3,137 W Foothill Boukvnrd, Glendale, CA Page 31

Information from EDR indicates the nearest site, ABC 2000 Corp Ogames Daviyan at 3411 FoothjJl13lvd., is located immediately southeast of the subject propel1y. This site is identified as a SWEEPS UST site (listed twice). This site is also identified as a LUST site (aka Texaco Station) and addressed in the LUST section above.

The remaining sites are located over 380 feet from the subject property. The nature of the UST listings indicates a UST has been reported at the respective address; however, the nature of this listing does not indicate whether the presence of the UST(s) has resulted in an impact to the environment. UST sites with reported releases are typically identified on other EDR reported databases which indicate a reported release or environmental impact and are discussed accordingly. Based upon the distance from the subject property, regulatory status, and/or cross- to down-gradient location with respect to the inferred direction of groundwater flow (southerly), it appears unlikely the remaining listed UST sites have significantly environmentally impaired the subject property.

Environmental Liens Listing (LIENS):

Deed Restriction Listing (DEED):

The Department of Toxic Substances Control's (DTSC) DEED database includes a listing of Site Mitigation and Brownfields Rcuse Program (SMBRP) Facility Sites with Deed Restrictions and Hazardous Waste Management Program Facility Sites with Deed/Land Use Restrictions. The 5MBRP list includes sites cleaned up under the program's oversight and generally does not include current or fonner hazardous waste facilities that required a hazardous waste facility permit. The list Phas(" I Environmental Site Assessment Pinnaclc Environmcntal, Inc. )·121-3·137 W. FnC'lhill flnlllcvard; Gkndalc, CA Page 32 represents deed restrictions that are active, and some sites have multiple deed restrictions. The DTSC Hazardous Waste Management Program (HWMP) has developed a list of current or former hazardous waste facilities that have a recorded land use restriction at the local county recorder's office. The land use restrictions on this list were required by the DTSC HWMP as a result of the presence of hazardous substances that remain on site after the facility (or part of the facility) has been closed or cleaned up. The types of land use rcstriction include deed notice, deed restriction, or a land use restriction that binds current and future owners.

The nearest additional site, Superior Cleaners at 3448 W. Foothill Blvd., is located approximately 120 feet south (across Foothill) of the subject property.

The status is listed as "active".

The remaining sites are located over 680 feet from the subject property. The nature of the WIP listing ind icates the respective site has been included in a well investigation program utilized to identify sources of contamination to public drinking water supply wells; however, identification as a WIP site does not necessariIy indicate a site has impacted the environment. Sites with reported releases are typically included on other EOR databases which indicate a reported release or environmental impact and are discussed accordingly.

State Response/EnviroStor Databases:

The Department of Toxic Substances Control's (OTSC) RESPONSE database identifies confirmed release sites where DTSC is involved in remediation, either in a lead or oversight capacity. These confirmed release sites are generally highpriority and high potential risk. The OTSC's Site Mitigation and Brownfields Reuse Program's (SMBRPs) EnviroStor database identifies sites that have reported contamination or sites for which there may be reason to investigate further. The database includes the following site types: Federal Superfund Sites (National Priorities List (NPL)); State Response, including Military Facilities and State Superfund; Voluntary Cleanup; and School sites. EnviroStor provides similar information to the information that was available in Cal-Sites, and provides additional site information, including, but not limited to, identification of formerly-contaminated properties that have been released for reuse, properties where environmental deed restrictions have been recorded to prevent inappropriate land uses, and risk characterization information that is used to assess potential impacts to public health and the environment at contaminated sites. A search of the Response and EnviroStor databases identified the following numbcr of sites within the specified database search range:

State and/or Local Agency Generators (HAZNET):

The HAZNET data is extracted from copies of hazardous waste manifests kept by the Cal-EPA, DTSC. These manifests track hazardous wastes from generation source to the point of ultimate disposal. Permit data is generally culled from local agency database(s) for hazardous material handlers and generators. Identification on these lists docs not indicate that a site has impacted the environment and the data has not always been verified for accuracy by the DTSC or local agencies. A search of the HAZNET and Permit data identified the fol lowing number of reported sites within the specified database search range:

This facility has reportedly generated hazardous waste(s) including: "liquids with halogenated organic compounds>1,000 mg/I", "halogenated solvents", and "aqueous solution with less than ]0% total organic residues". The nature of the HAZNET listing indicates a business generates hazardous waste; however, the nature of these listings does not indicate whether the waste generating (or related) activities have resulted in an impact to the environment. Sites with reported impact are typically identified on other EDR databases and are discussed accordingly.

Local Regulatory Databases:

The Los Angeles County Community Health Services maintains a Site Mitigation list (LA Co. Site Mitigation) which includes industrial sites that have had some sort of spill or complaint, and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works maintains a list of industrial waste and underground storage tank sites (Los Angeles Co.

Orphan Unplottable Sites:
"Orphan" sites are those which could not be plotted by EDR using conventional geo-coding methods, typically because the information provided in the original government database was unclear, incorrect or missing. A listing of orphan sites (if any) appears at the end of the EDR database, immediately after the last plottable site description.

PEl reviewed the orphan list for sites with the same name as the subject property (if applicable) and/or the same or similar property address. This review is inherently limited by the incomplete and/or possibly incorrect data reported in the orphan listings. For orphans apparently not related to the subject property, only those obviously located adjoining or within a shon distance that may affect the property are discussed. Orphan sites which are also listed in the plotted section are not re-discussed.

PEI's review of the orphan list revealed no obvious sites of concern listed at or adjoining the subject property.

C. LOCAL AGENCY RECORDS SEARCH
The following is a discussion of the results of PEI's written records requests, online regulatory database review, and/or personal/telephone contacts (as applicable) made to state and/or local government agencies in an eff0l1 to obtain potential information relevant to the subject propelty:

Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB):

PEl contacted the LARWQCB in an effort to evaluate whether hazardous material incidents, USTs, and/or LUSTs have been rep0l1ed at the subject property addresses. The LARWQCB informed PEl that no hazardous material incident, UST, or LUST information is on file for the subject propeny addresses.

However, the LARWQCB informed PEl that a WIP/SUC file does exist for the subject property (Palace Cleaners at 3423 Foothill Blvd.). PEl reviewed Phas(' I Environmental Site Ass('sSmenl Pinnacle Environmenlal, Inc. ::;~21·3437 \\' Foothill Boulevard; Glendale, CA Page 36 information on file for the above subject property address. The following is a brief summary of information on file with the LARWQCB \vhich is most significant to this [SA. Copies of selected records are included in the appendix.

On November 19, 1999, the subject property was issued a "Mandatory Chemical Storage and Use Questionnaire" by the LARWQCB. The questionnaire was completed and returned by Mr. Ki M. Kim the owner of Palace Cleaner on November 27, 1999. Two prior owners were noted on the questionnaire in including Mr. Byung Ha Min (9/1987 to 10/1992) and Mr. Hwang Rae Cho (10/1992 to 6/1999). The date operations began was reported as "7-1-97". The sewer system was reported as "municipal" with no di1Terent system used in the past. The questionnaire indicated that 50 gallons of perchloroethylene (PCE) was stored on-site in an aboveground storage tank. Mr. Kim provided hazardous waste manifest/l nvoices from Technichem dated 511999, 12/1998 and 9/1998. ]n addition, Mr. Kim provided a copy of his South Coast Air Quality Management District annual operating permit fees for facility 10 # 117154. There is no information in the file reviev·,ed indicating that a release has occurred at the subject property. ]n addition, there is no infonnation indicating that previous environmental assessments/investigations have been requested or conducted at the subject propel1y. However, Palace Cleaners was included on the W]P/SLlC databases due to an on-going investigation into potential contributors to area-wide groundwater impacts; so it is possible that other actions may be taken by the LARWQCB in the future to investigate the subject dry cleaning facility. PEl recommends a subsurface investigation of the on-site dry cleaner to evaluate its potcntial to have impacted the subject property.

Los Angdes County Department of Public Health Investigation (LACDPHI):

PEl contacted the LACDPH] in an effort to evaluate whether hazardous material incidents, USTs, and/or LUSTs have been reported at the subject property addresses. The LACDPHI informed PEl that the Glendale Fire Department (GFD) is the lead agency for the subject property and such requests should be directed to the GFD.

Los Angdes County Department of Public Works (LACDPW):

PEr contacted the LACDPW in an effort to evaluate whether industrial waste generation, USTs, and/or LUSTs have been reported at the subject property addresses. The LACDPW informed PEl that no industrial waste generation, UST, or LUST information is on file for the subject property addresses.

City of Glendale Fire Department (GFD):

PEl contacted the GFD in an elrort to evaluate whether hazardous material incidents, USTs and/or LUSTs have been repOlted at thc subject property addresses. The GFD responded that files existed on the Palace Cleaners tenant at Phase I Environmental Sile Assessmcllt Pinnacle Environmental. 1nco 3421-3437 W Foothill Boulevard; Glendale, CA Page 37
the subject property. The file was reviewed by PEl at GFD's offices and portions are included in the appendix for review. The earliest information included an application for an "lndustrial Waste Permit" completed by Mr. Ki M. Kim. The permit indicates the following (directly excerpted):

C::-li1rtJcLe· or op~:.:o.tion prooucing "'u~te: Ze;:o discharge of ?ER.C. ~:-ai:l and .Q\ll?rf~o\.; from cooli:lg ':O'tler sl2c"inq drv .. clQ~ning ecuip:nenc., "rlet. ""as.hin=ow-'__ A June 2000 inspection requested that secondary containment be provided for hazardous waste drums and that the "cooling tower drain and overflow must be piped to the sanitary sewer". Subsequent inspections and facility information did not find significant changes or violation notices.

South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD):

PEI reviewed the SCAQMD's online database (www.aqmd.gov) in an effort to evaluate whether hazardous material-related emissions records were available for the subject property. That search revealed four records listed for the 3423 W.

Foothill (Palace Cleaners) subject property address.

Facility ID#2757: Inactive dry cleaning equipment (perchloroethylene) permit dated 1981.

Facility 10#70816: Inactive dry cleaning equipment (perchloroethylene) permit dated 1989.

(perchloroethylene) permit dated 1994.
facility 10#117154: Inactive dry cleaning equipment
(perchloroethylene) permit dated 1998. Active dry cleaning equipment Cperchloroethylene) permit dated 2007.

PEl interviewed Ms. Maria Vibal of SCAQMD (909/396-2422) regarding the subject property. Ms. Vibal stated that the subject property is in compliance with a dry cleaning machine that has the appropriate primary and secondary controls.

Ms. Vibal further stated that in exchange for continued use of PCE, the owner/operator agreed to a lower annual use of PCE solvent.

California EPA - Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC):

PEr also reviewed CaIEPA-DTSC's Hazardous Waste Tracking System (HWTS) online database (http://hwts.dtsc.ca.gov) in an effort to identify potential hazardous waste generation/disposal activities associated with the subject property addresses. Information [rom DISC's HWTS indicated three listings for Pha.'\e I Envlronmental Site AssesslT1enl Pinnacle Environmental. Inc, 3421-3·137 W FOalhiJl Floulevard. Glendale. CA Page 38
the 3423 W. Foothill (Palace Cleaners) subject property address. The following was obtained:
• A hazardous ,vaste generator identification number (ID# CAD982355463) was issued to Palace Cleaners in June of 1988, and this number was reportedly inactivated in June of 200 1. Three manifests for halogenated solvents and were reported under this generator identification number in 1995, 1996 and solids with halogenated organic compounds in 1999. No significant additional information was reported. • A hazardous waste generator identification number (lDH CAL000027983) was issued to Palace Cleaners in May of 1990, and this number was reportedly inactivated in July of 1995.

No significant additional information was reported.

California Department of Consen'ation, Division of Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) Maps:

PEl reviewed DOGGR maps in an effort to identify whether oil or gas wells have been reported in the vicinity of the subject property. According to the maps reviewed on the DOGGR website (Regional Wildcat Map #W 1-2, with no Field Maps covering the property area), no oil or gas wells are reported in the subject property area (within If.t-mile).

D. TRIBAL RECORDS SEARCH
According ASTM E1527-2005, records for local and tribal records shall be checked to satisfy all appropriatc inquiry for this assessment. The following is a discussion of the results of PEl's written records requests, online regulatory database review, and/or personal/telephone contacts (as applicable) made to tribal governmental agencies in an effort to obtain potential information relevant to the subject property:

The subject property is not located on tribal property and therefore no inquiry was necessary.

SITE VISIT OBSERVATIONS

A. SURFACE CHARACTERISTICS
At the time of the May 6, 2008 site visit, the subject property consisted of an approximate O.8-acre parcel of land, occupied by two (2) single-story retail buildings. The subject buildings comprised a total of approximately 10,900 and 1,200 square feet respectively and housed 7 tenant spaces, utilized by typical retail and service businesses (e.g., laundry, cleaners, barber, health store, market & restaurant). The structures appeared adequately maintained at the time of the site visit. The structures occupied approximately 40 percent of the subject property. The remaining 60 percent consisted of paved parking and driveway areas, sidewalks, and landscaped areas. The landscaping appeared to be in good condition with no signs of unnatural or chemically induced stress. Minor surface staining was observed on the parking areas, and was likely the result of leaking vehicles. No pits, ponds, lagoons, swales, or surfac.e impoundments potentially containing hazardous materials were observed on the subject property. Weather conditions at the time of the site visit consisted of cloudy skies, with temperatures in the 60s. The soils of the subject property were wet from recent landscapc sprinkler watering.

During the site visit, a masonry walled structure was noted between the Trader Joe's Market (3433) and Pizza Hut (3437) buildings. The structure was gated and inaccessible to PEl at the time of the site visit due to stored items from Trader Joe's and appeared to enclosed electrical equipment. A sign on the fence gate indicated "Danger High Voltage - Admittance to Qualified Persons Only - City of Glendale Public Service Department", This structure may have been related to surface and subterranean structures noted on the northern adjoining propel1y which were similarly labeled as being owned by the City of Glendale Public Service Department.

During the site visit, the exterior of the subject property (with the exception of the roofs), and severa \ representative tenant spaces were inspected including the coin-op laundry (3421), Palace Cleaners (3423), The [-lair & Now (3427), and Trader Joe's (3433). Areas not inspected and/or where observations were limited included: The remaining tenant spaces, interior surface areas covered by furniture and stored items (approximately 60 percent of interior areas), and exterior surface areas covered by parked vehicles (approximately 40 percent of exterior areas).

B. WASTEWATER AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Wastcwater at the site is limited to effluent from the tenant space restrooms, and various floor drains within the tenant spaces. This material flows into the city-operated sewer system.

None of the interior floor drains appeared to be significantly stained.

Exterior surface run-off from the subject property is expected to flow into several observed stormwater drains located at various points on the subject property, as well as directly onto the adjoining roadways. These stormwater drains apparently flow to the municipal I'hase I Environmental Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmemal. Inc. 3421-3'!}7 W Footlllil 13oulevard; Glendale. CA Page 40 stormwater system. The storm drains were inspected and appeared to be in good visible condition, with no significant staining observed around their perimeters.

C. POTABLE WATER SUPPLY AND SEWER SERVICE:

The subject property ulilizes water and sewer service supplied by the city of Glendale.

During the course of the site visit, no obvious evidence of active or abandoned water supply wells or septic systems was observed.

According to building permits at the city of Glendale, the subject property was initially constructed utilizing a septic system in 1968. A review of correspondence indicates that two main sewer tie connections were initially constructed for the eventual construction of a main sewer line by the city of Glendale. The city of Glendale then requested three connections (one for each building). According to building permits, the property was connected to the city sewer in April 1970 and the corresponding septic system was abandoned. There was not indication of the location of the former septic systems in documentation reviewed by PEl.

Septic systems are generally not considered a significant environmental threat to the environment; however, it appears the Palace Cleaners tenant at 3423 Foothill Boulevard, may have initially been connected to a septic system from its initial operation in approximately June 1968 until connection to the sewer in April 1970. The potential for release of dry cleaning solvent (PCE) to the septic system and on-site leach field is a potential recognized environmental condition. A subsurface investigation is recommended to evaluate the potential for environmental impact to the subsurface soils at the subject property from these former operations.

D. STRUCTURE CONSTRUCTION
The subject property is developed with two single-story buildings totaling approximately 10,900 and] ,200 square feel each. These structures consisted of wood-framed exterior walls covered with stucco, set on poured concrete slabs. The flat roofs were apparently constructed of wooden trusses and decking, and likely covered with asphalt composition materials.

Interior areas were primarily finished with painted drywall, suspended acoustic ceilings and vinyl floor coverings, as well as carpeting. Standard commercial windows were built into the front exposures of the structures. Electric, forced-air units provided heating and air conditioning.

E. BUSINESS OPERATIONS DESCRIPTION
According to the Glendale Planning Department, the subject property was zoned for Commercial Service uses (zone C-3), which includes primarily retail and service businesses.

At the time of the site visit, the subject property was occupied by various retail and service businesses. One tenant (Palace Cleaners at 3423 Foothill Blvd) handles hazardous materials and/or generates hazardous wastes above de minimus quantities. PEl's research indicates no military bases, industrial facilities, or major manufacturing operations have occupied the subject property.

Phase I Environmental Site Assessmcnt Pinnacle Environmental, In~. 3421-34.17 W. Foothill Boulcvard; Glendale, CA Page 41
The subject has been occupied by a dry cleaner, Palace Cleaners at 3423 Foothill Boulevard, conducting dry cleaning operations on-site since approximately June of 1968. It appears that the subject propcI1y may have been initially connected to an on-site septic system until being connected to the city municipal sewer in April 1970. This presents an increased potential for impact of subsurface soils from dry cleaning solvents. The subject property is also listed in regulatory databases a Well Investigation Program (WIP) database and the Spills, Leaks, Investigations, and Cleanup (SUC) Cost Recovery Listing database and is located upgradient to the San fernando Valley Area 3 Superfund site. While there arc not reported releases on the subject property, the listing of the subject property on these databases provides an opportunity for increased future regulatory scrutiny due to the presence of the on-site dry cleaner for the past 40 years. Dry cleaners present an increased risk of environmental impairment due to possible improper hazardous material and/or waste handling and disposal practices, particularly prior to passage of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act in 1976 and its implementation several years later. Although the current tenant appears to be handling and disposing of the dl)' cleaning chemicals in a proper manner, it is unknown how such activities were handled in the past under different owners. However, due to the nature of the chemicals used in the drycleaning industry and unknown historical materials handling practices, identification of this historic drycleaning business represents a Recognized Environmental Condition as defined by the ASTM E-1527 standard. Therefore, PEl recommends a subsurface investigation in an effort to evaluate whether the subject property has been impacted by dry cleaning solvents.

SECTION VII.

HAZARDOUS MATERIAL/WASTE OBSERVATIONS

A. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS HANDLING AND STORAGE
During the on-site visit, the following hazardous materials (and approximate quantities) were observed in the Palace Cleaners space (3423 Foothill Boulevard) at the subject property:

Perchloroethylene (PCE - approximately 50 gallons stored within the dry cleaning machine and a 5-gallon container stored on the floor), and various spot cleaners (several small containers). A metal secondary containment pan was noted around the perimeter of the dry cleaning machine. According to Mr. Kim, owner of Palace Cleaners, Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and Hazardous Material Business Plan (HMBP) information were available for the materials used on-site.

Mr. Kim also maintains PCE waste disposal manifests, weekly visual inspection logs, workertraining records, and applicable regulatory permits readily available in folders ncar the drycleaning machine. Mr. Kim stated that the dry cleaning machine is a closed loop unit with secondary containment, and no external PCE storage is necessary (although this docs not explain the 5-gallon container of PCE observed). Mr. Kim indicated that an older dry cleaning unit (also reportedly closed loop) was replaced by the current unit in approximately 2004 and neither unit discharged PCE directly to the sewer system. Mr. Kim stated that no significant spillage of peE has occurred within the tenant space since his tenancy began in 1999.

One floor drain was observed within the tenant space, approximately 15 feet east of the drycleaning unit. The drain was utilized for excess water discharge from a hot-water heater and boiler, and 110 significant staining was observed within or around this drain. The floor surface in the vicinity of the dry-cleaning unit was unsealed concrete partially covered with older vinyl tile, and the hold-down bolts (which had been cut off level with the floor) from the former dry cleaning unit were observed adjoining the new machine. No significant staining or floor cracks were observed in the vicinity of the machine. The tenant space, including the area around the dry-cleaning unit, and the secondary containment for labeled and covered 30 and 55-gallon waste PCE filter and sludge drums, were generally in adequate condition.

Small quantities of typical cleaners and other maintenance materials were also likely stored in some of the remaining areas of the subject property. No significant staining or spillage was observed in any of the hazardous material storage areas inspected. With the exception of the above-mentioned materials, no other hazardous materials handling, storage, or disposal were observed on the subject property during the site visit.

B. WASTESTREAM GENERAnON, STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
Waste peE sludge and filters are stored in a 30- and 55-gallon steel drum, respectively.

These drums are stored on top of secondary containment. According to Mr. Kim. Safety Kleen, Inc., formerly removed the PCE sludge on an approximate quarterly basis. He indicated that he just reccntly changed to a new disposal company, Veolia Environmental Phase I Envirnnmenlal Site Assessment Pinnacle Environmental, Inr 3421-3437 W. foothill Boulevard; Glendale, CA Page 43 Services as of January of 2008. Mr. Kim allowed the PEl Assessor to review several disposal manifests, which also indicated the used PCE is removed under USEPA generator J.D. fiCAD9823554G3. No significant spillage was observed ncar the PCE sludge containers or the dry cleaning plant. Palace Cleaners is listed on the RCRlS database (see the Records Review Section above) as a small-quantity generator of lIsed PCE and PCE sludge. The subject tenant was not listed as out of compliance with environmental regulations on the RCRIS database. In addition, copies of regulatory file information concerning Palace Cleaners are included in the appendix.

No evidence of improper hazardous waste disposal was observed on the subject property.

During the inspection, no stained or discolored sinks, drains, catch basins, drip pads, or sumps \vere observed. Additionally, there were no observed spills around surface drains, pipes, gutters, spouts, or tubes.

C. SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL
During the site visit, several municipal waste dumpsters were observed at the subject property. At the time of the inspection, the dumpsters did not appear to be utilized for improper hazardous waste disposal. Significant spills or staining were not observed on the ground surface areas around the dumpsters.

D. ABOVEGROUND STORAGE TANKS (ASTs)
With the exception of the PCE sludge containers and the dry-cleaning unit within the Palace Cleaners space, no ASTs were observed at the subject property. As discussed in the Hazardous Materials/Waste Sections above, no significant spillage or staining was observed in the vicinity of the ASTs obscrved in the tenant space.

E. UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS (USTs)
As discussed in the Section V (Agency Records Review) of this report, no USTs were reported at the subject property. ]n addition, no visual or physical evidence of current or past USTs was discovered during the site visit in the readily visible areas of the property. In particular, PEl searched for: fill pipes, vent pipes, manways, manholes, access covers, concrete pads not homogeneous with surrounding surfaces, concrete built-up areas potentially indicating pump islands, abandoned pumping equipment, or fuel pumps.

OTHER POTENTIAL lSSUES OF CONCERN

A. PCB-CONTAINING EXTERIOR ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMERS
Several pole-mounted electrical transformers were observed at the western border of the subject property. These transformers appeared to be in good condition, showing no signs of damage or past leakage, and they appeared to be owned by the local utility. Based upon the date of construction of the subject property development and the apparent age of the transformers (pre-I 977), it is possible the transformers contain poly-chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). However, regardless of their PCB content, the maintenance, repair, or replacement of the transformers is the responsibility of the local utility, and therefore, no further investigation regarding the on-site transformers is recommended.

In addition, a masonry walled structure containing electrical equipment was noted between the Trader Joe's Market (3433) and Pizza Hut (3437) buildings. A sign on the fence gate indicated "Danger High Voltage - Admittance to Qualified Persons Only - City of Glendale Public Service Department". This structure may have been related to surface and subterranean structures noted on the northern adjoining property which were similarly labeled as being O\vned by the City of Glendale Public Service Department. Based upon the date of construction of the subject property development and the apparent age of the transformers (pre-19Tl), it is possible the electrical equipment contain poly-chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

However, regardless of their PCB content, the maintenance, repair, or replacement of the transformers is the responsibility of the local utility (City of Glendale), and therefore, no further invcstigation regarding the on-site transformers is recommended.

B. OTHER PCB-CONTAINING INTERlOR OR EXTERlOR EQUIPMENT
Based upon the age of the subject development (pre-l 977), it is possible that potential ballasts inside 1luorescent light fixtures contain PCBs. If these ballasts are found to be leaking, require replacement, or are subject to disposal, it would be prudent to identify their chemical content. Additionally, during the on-site inspection, no evidence was observed of any other equipment likely containing PCB-contaminated fluid (e.g., interior electric transformers, hydraulic elevators, hydraulic hoists/lifts, hydraulic loading dock ramps, other fluid containing equipment, etc.).

C. SUSPECT ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS (ACMs)
Based on the elate of construction of the subject structure(s) (circa 1967) and the apparent age or the construction materials (pre-1985), it is possible asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were used in construction or the subject structure(s) andior added later. An asbestos survey completed by Environmental Monitoring Group (EMG) in April 2008, identifIed some or all of the vinyl 1looring and mastic, stucco, and plaster material at the subject buildings as Phase I Envlfonmenlal Site Assessment Pinnal'll' Environmental. Inc 3421-3437 W. Foothill BoulenlfJ, Glendale. CA Page 45
containing asbestos. Refer to EMG's report in the appendix for specific findings and related recommendations. PEl generally concurs with EMG's recommendations.

During PEl's on-site observations suspect ACMs were identified, including, but not necessarily limited to: acoustic ceiling tiles, interior drywaWioint compound and texture systems, vinyl flooring and mastic, tile grout, exterior stucco, mortar, and roofing materials.

All observed materials appeared to be adequately maintained. Suspect ACM testing was not included in PEl's scope of work. However, as defined in NESHAPs Section 61.141, the observed materials may be classified as suspect regulated ACMs. Prior to any demolition, renovation, or any other activity that may disturb these materials, either an inspection should be performed by an accredited Building Inspector, or the affected materials should be handled as asbestos-containing. An approved Operations and Maintenance (0&1\1) Program is requircd to maintain the known ACMs and any untested materials in-place.

D. LEAD-BASED PANT (LBP)
PEl's scope of work did not include a lead-based paint (LBP) inspection, surveyor assessment. However, based upon the age of the subject building(s) (circa 1967), it is possible that lead-based paint (LSI') was used. Damaged, chipping, flaking, or peeling paint was not observed. In 1978, the federal government limited the use of LSI', particularly in residential applications. Although usage was allowed to continue in many commercial settings, use in general industry has decreased from that period of time to the present.

LSP presents a hazard primarily when lead dust or fumes are created. Renovation or repair activities and normal wear and tear are the primary causes of LBP dust and fume creation.

Effective in 1993, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Lead in Construction Standard (29 CFR 1926.62), applies to sources or potential sources of lead exposure present in an "employment-related" context. The trigger for application of the standard is an activity that by its very nature may cause exposure to lead (i.e., sanding, scraping, demolition, etc.). Such work must also be performed by certified personnel that have received Lead In Construction training. Should future renovation, repair, or demolition disturb any suspect paint (all untested pain!), a LBP inspection and/or risk assessment should be conducted by a state or EPA certified LBP inspector/assessor to idcntify areas of potential worker exposure. Additionally, if in California, CCR Title 17 states that "lead hazards" (e.g. deteriorated LBP, lead-containing dust, disturbance of LBP without proper controls, etc.) are not allowed in any public (non-residential or industrial) building. Please consult with an appropriatc certified lead professional for further details regarding the above issues and their specific application to the subject property.

E. LEAD IN DRINKING WATER
Federal regulations limit lead in publicly supplied water to no more than 15 parts per billion (ppb), hcm:c:er, the mo~t common source of lead in tapwater is from interior plumbing systems (plpmg, connections, faucets, etc.). Children are the most susceptible to possible health effects from consuming lead-tainted drinking water. Based upon the age of the subject Phase I Envlronmenial Sue Assessment
Ptnnacle Environmental. Inc. },21-]'137 W F()CllhlllllClulevard. Glendale, CA Page -16
development and on construction standards prior to 1987 (40 CFR 141.11), it is possible the interior plumbing systems contain lead. The presence or absence of elevated lead concentrations in thc water can only be confirmed through laboratory testing, and such analysis is beyond the scope of this Assessment.

F. AIR QUALITY
Unusual smells, noxious odors, or visual emissions were not observed during the inspection of the subject propcrty. Howcvcr, thcse observations arc general in nature and should not bc construed as an air quality assessmcnt.

G. RADON
According to the USEPA, the general area of the site has a predicted average indoor screening levcl of less than the EPA guideline action level of 4.0 picoCuries per liter of air (EPA Radon Zonc Level of 2, 3 or 4). Therefore, based upon the repoltcd subsurface characteristics of the area, the subject property exhibits a low to moderate potential for high-level radon exposure.

H. RAILROAD RIGHTS-OI<'-WAY
There are several potential environmental risks associated with railroad rights-of-way, including the usage of herbicides, pesticides, petroleum materials and related heavy metals (e.g. arsenic) to maintain the tracks, as well as the potential spillage of hazardous materials from railcars. During the site visit, railroad rights-of-way, spurs, or related features were not observed on or immediately adjoining the subject property.

SECTION IX.

ADJOINING PROPERTY OBSERVATIONS

Information from EDR indicates the nearest LUST site, Texaco Station at 3411 W. Foothill Blvd., is located immediately adjoining southeast of the subject property. According to database information, a gasoline release was discovered at this site in December of 2005, the release is undefined, and the case status is "leak being confirmed." This site has not been tested for methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE). PEI reviewed a report on this site prepared by SA1C for Chevron that was submitted to the LARWQCB on May 15,2007. According to the report, four fuel USTs were removed in 1985, and a 550-gallon waste oil UST was removed in 2004. Other than sampling of soil beneath the fonner waste oil UST (which indicated low to moderate-level petroleum hydrocarbon impact), no records of soil or groundwater sampling were readily available for this property. This site is apparently under investigation by the LARWQCB for potential contribution to area groundwater impacts, and it is possible additional investigation of the adjoining site will be requested by the LARWQCB. Given the proximity of this site, this is considered a potential REC. Although located immediately adjoining, based on the apparent down-gradient location of this site, it appears unlikely to have significantly environmentally impaired the subject property. However, if greater certainty is desired, a subsurface investigation could be performed on the subject property nearest the former gas station to confirm or deny this supposition.

As discussed below, based upon limited observations of the remaining adjoining properties from publicly accessible locations, as well as a review of federal, state, and local environmental databases, nonc of the adjoining properties appeared to have significantly environmentally impacted the subject propelty at this time.

A. ADJOINING PROPERTIES MATERIALS STORAGE
Visual observations of the portions of the adjoining properties visible from the subject property or public roadways did not indicate the exterior storage of hazardous materials or wastes. No indications of spillage or staining were observed in the observable exterior areas of these sites. Additionally, no obvious indications of improper hazardous material storage or unusual or suspicious materials handling or storage practices were observed.

B. ADJOINING PROPERTIES WASTESTREAM DISPOSAL
No unusual or suspicious wastestream disposal activities were observed on the portions of the adjoining properties visible from the su~ject property or public roadways. l'hase I Environmeillal Site Assessme;ll Pinnacle Environmelllal, Inc. 3421-3437 W. Foothill Boulevard; Glendale, CA

Key Experience/Key Projects -
Restaurant Property, Malibu, CA
• Mr. Winkler provided environmental consulting for the seller of a property that was developed as a restaurant, but historically was occupied by a gasoline service station. The gas station was closed in the 1960’s, prior to purchase by the property owner, and USTs were discovered and removed in 2004. Site
assessments indicated petroleum hydrocarbon impact to soil and groundwater. Furthermore, seepage pits for wastewater complicated contaminant transport in the subsurface. Mr.

Winkler assisted the property owner to identify the former UST owner/operator, who then agreed to assume Responsible Party status. Subsequently the property owner was able to complete the sale of the property.

Commercial Retail Center, Montebello, CA
• Mr. Winkler provided environmental consulting for a property owner seeking a refinance loan of a 7.56-acre multi-tenant retail shopping center. A Phase I ESA was conducted and an existing dry cleaner unit was determined to have operated for over 25 years, indicating a risk of a release of dry cleaning solvent. A Phase II assessment was conducted at areas of Haz Mat use.

Results indicated low levels of PCE in soil and soil vapor below the unit, with no threat to groundwater, but a risk for vapor intrusion. To mitigate the risk, Mr. Winkler managed the following: 1) improvement of secondary containment; 2)
improvement of engineered air flow; and, 3) installation of a vapor barrier. Based on the mitigation of the risk of vapor intrusion, the lender approved the loan.
.

Commercial Property, Pomona, CA
• Mr. Winkler provided environmental consulting for a property that was placed in receivership, partly to provide time to assess the environmental risks. A Phase I ESA was conducted and research indicated the site was developed in 1961, and USTs were installed on the property and subsequently removed, but closure was not documented. Additionally, data gaps on past site use existed. Site assessments indicated no significant impact from the fuel USTs; however, elevated concentrations of PCE in soil were detected. A nearby property had a catastrophic train derailment that released PCE to the subsurface and the elevated levels on the subject property were determined to have an off-site source. The UST case was successfully closed with the oversight agency.
