A. Introduction A.1. Purpose received authorization from Mr. Shawn Siders of City of Braun Intertec Corporation (Braun Intertec) of the City of New Hope (User) to conduct a Phase I environmental site of 42nd Avenue North and Winnetka New Hope Redevelopment located at the southeast This Phase I ESA has been prepared on behalf of and for Avenue North, New Hope, Minnesota (Site). y Y the e b City of New Hope in accordance with the contract betwe other par has a e and o rely on t he rt Int which includes the Braun Intertec General Conditions. contents of this Phase I ESA without our written authorization. to the User, this Phase I ESA has been prepared in association with the purchase and Accords n g redevelopment of the property. The purpose o f this Phase I ESA was to evaluate the Site for indications oof "recognized likely g presence of any ental " as defined b ASTM Practice E 1527 -00 as: The presence conditions, Y under conditions that indicate an existing hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property hazardous substances or petroleum release, a past release or a material threat of a release of any roundwater or surface water of the property . products into structures on the property or into the ground, g The term me ludes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions of storage and use to include de c ompliance with local and state regulations.

No intentional deviations from the ASTM Practice E 1527 -00 were made in the completion of this Phase I ESA for the Site. However, the following limitations were encountered: We were unable to obtain historical documents prior to 1937 to determine first developed land use. We were unable to interview a representative with Auto Haus, the business located at 7705 42nd Avenue North, at the time of this assessment. We were unable to observe the interior of Auto Haus, the business located at 7705 42nd Avenue North, at the time of this assessment. The Scope of Services for this project did not include the completi titer samples. of i Also, installation Seopeof of groundwater monitoring wells, or collection of soil or samples from the Site for the presence of Services for this project did not include asbestos, PCBs, lead -based paint, lead in drinking water, radon or urea formaldehyde.

Findings and Opinions The following environmental conditions regarding the Site were noted: According to information obtained from the city of New Hope, two underground storage • tanks (USTs) were removed by the city of New Hope in 1987 at Abra Auto Body (Parcel A) when the parcel was occupied by the City of New Hope Public Works department. f cantAccording to information obtained from the City, there no was no indication of any o documentation contamination when the USTs were removed. However, no soil same regarding the condition of the soil beneath he USTs was lack analytical data regarding the soil assessment. Therefore, it is our opinion that the conditions beneath the removed USTs at Parcel A constitutes a recognized environmental condition. Floor drains associated with oil /water separators are currently Our experience hat A oill oil/water Body) and Parcel D (Robinsdale Bus Garage) at the separators have the potential to adversely impact soil and/or consgt a recognized env neath Therefore, it is our opinion that the oil /water separators condition. City of New Hope Project BL -04 -0703 October 29, 2004 Page 20 According to city directories and information from the city of New Hope, the city of New . e Public Works department shop occupied Parcel A fr om 1962 until the late- 1970s. The Hope use of Parcel A as a parcel is currently occupied by an auto repair facility.

It is our opinion that Currently, round storage tanks have the potential to adversely impact soil and /or groundwater and unde r g therefore constitutes a recognized environmental condition. One diesel fuel UST was removed from the bus garage at Parcel D on June 23, 1997. One soil sample was collected from beneath the tank and submitted diesel -range organics (DRO).
