PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT
7th Street Station 1100 Southwest 7th Street Corvallis, Oregon 97333
VERTEX Project No. 18683
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Vertex Environmental Services, Inc. (VERTEX) conducted a Phase I Environmental Site
Assessment of the property referenced as 7th Street Station, located at 1100 Southwest 7th Street,
Corvallis, Oregon (the site). According to the Benton Tax Assessor’s Records, the site consists
of four parcels of land (Section 2, Township 1 South, Range 5 West, lots 16001, 16002, 16003,
and 1702) currently owned by 7th Street Station, LLC.
In conducting this assessment, VERTEX followed the E1527-05 American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) document entitled "Standard Practices for Environmental Site
Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process" for commercial real estate as well
the All Appropriate Inquires (AAI) Final Rule of November 1, 2005. Any exceptions to, or
deletions from, this practice are described in Section 10.0 of the report. The primary purpose of
this assessment was to identify recognized environmental conditions (“RECs”) in connection
with the subject property. ASTM defines recognized environmental conditions as the presence
or likely presence of hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions
that indicate an existing release, a past release, or material threat of a release into structures on
the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. The purpose of
this practice is to define good commercial and customary practice for conducting an
environmental site assessment of a parcel of commercial real estate with respect to the range of
contaminants within the scope of Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act (CERCLA) (42 U.S.C. 9601) and petroleum products. As such, this practice is
intended to permit a user to satisfy one of the requirements to qualify for the innocent landowner,
contiguous property owner, or bona fide prospective purchaser limitations on CERCLA liability.
The practice constitutes "all appropriate inquiry into the previous ownership and uses of the
property consistent with good commercial or customary practice" as defined at 42 U.S.C.
9601(35)(B).
_____________________________________________________________________________________

As part of the AAI Final Rule, Phase I ESAs must be conducted by or under the supervision of a
qualified environmental professional. The AAI Final Rule defines an environmental
professional as someone who possesses sufficient specific education, training, and experience
necessary to exercise professional judgment to develop opinions and conclusions regarding
conditions indicative of releases or threatened releases on, at, in, or to a property, sufficient to
meet the objectives and performance factors of the rule. We declare that to the best of our
professional knowledge and belief, we meet the definition of Environmental Professional as
defined in 40 CFR 312.10. We have the specific qualifications based on education, training and
experience to assess a property of the nature, history, and setting of the Site. We have developed
and performed the all appropriate inquiries in conformance with the standards and practices set
forth in 40 CFR Part 312.
VERTEX performed a visual reconnaissance of the site, noted use of adjacent properties, and
conducted historical and regulatory records research. The following provides a more detailed
description of the scope of services:
• Visual inspection of the site building(s) and grounds to identify potential for on-site oil or
hazardous material release(s).
• Visual inspection of the site to confirm the presence or absence of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) (i.e., transformers).
• Visual inspection and categorization of the use of abutting and adjacent properties as potential off-site sources of hazardous material release(s).
• Review of local records related to historical ownership, usage and site development. This also included interviewing local environmental authorities to identify complaints, violations, citations, inspections, environmental liens, activity and use limitations (AULs), or institutional and engineering controls related to the site.
• Review of published federal regulatory records related to on-site activities and to potential off-site sources of oil or hazardous material contamination. Federal records reviewed include, but are not limited to, the following:
- National Priorities List (NPL)
_____________________________________________________________________________________
3
- Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Information System (CERCLIS)
- CERCLIS corrective Action Report
- Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
- Emergency Response Notification System (ERNS)
• Review of readily available state and local regulatory records and publications for environmental activities related to the site and potential off-site sources of oil or hazardous material contamination. State records reviewed include, but are not limited to, the following:
- State Hazardous Waste Sites (SHWS)
- State Solid Waste Facilities/Landfills (SWF/LF)
- State Registered Underground Storage Tanks (USTs)
- State Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUSTs)
- State Releases
• Review of readily available historic site documents to assess for potential on-site sources of oil or hazardous material release(s).
• Review of readily available aerial photos for the site and site vicinity to evaluate present and historical development/facilities.
• Review of readily available plans and documents relative to construction materials utilized at the site and any historical renovation activities.
• Preparation of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment report.

2.0 PROJECT SUMMARY
A site visit was conducted by VERTEX representative Mr. Nicholas S. Sturdivant, between 8:30
a.m. and 10:00 a.m. on May 10, 2011. VERTEX was provided access to the site by Mr. Tyler May,
a representative of the current property owner. Past property owners were not available for
interviews.
The site consists of four parcels of land identified as lots 16001, 16002, 16003, and 1702,
Section 2, Township 1 South, Range 5 West, by the Benton County Tax Assessor. The site
occupies approximately 6.14-acres of land within a residential and commercial area of Corvallis,
Oregon. The central portion of the site is currently developed with a single story warehouse. A
gravel-paved driveway provides access to the site building from Southwest 7th Street. A railroad
spur transects the northeastern portion of the site. The northeastern portion of the site is also
developed with a billboard and a gravel-paved parking area. A gravel-paved turnaround was
observed on the southwestern portion of the site. Several debris piles containing railroad ties,
rubber mats, concrete, and asphalt were observed along the southeastern side of the site. The
remainder of the site is undeveloped cleared land.
Historic research indicates that the southeastern portion of the site was developed with a grain
warehouse in the late 1800s. By 1912, the southeastern portion of the site was developed with
several buildings associated with a construction company, and the northeastern portion of the
property was developed with the current railroad spur. The southeastern portion of the site was
utilized as a livestock corral and railroad loading area from at least 1927 through the late 1940s.
Sanborn maps indicate that a potential fuel oil tank was located in the vicinity of the former
corral. The central portion of the site was developed with a lumber mill from at least 1949
through the late 1950s. The central portion of the property was then developed with the current
site building between 1954 and 1967 and was utilized by a fertilizer company in the late 1960s.
The site building was then occupied by a seed cleaning and packaging company from 1982 until
at least 2000. This site building has been utilized as warehouse space by Lucidyne, a lumber
grading scanner company, since at least 2006.
_____________________________________________________________________________________

The site is bordered to the northeast by Southwest Western Avenue, beyond which is an office
building and Beekman Place Antiques. The site is bordered to the southeast by railroad tracks,
beyond which is Southwest 6th Avenue, residences, and vacant land. The site is bordered to the
southwest by vacant wooded land, beyond which is a U.S. Highway 20 overpass. The site is
bordered to the northwest by residences and Southwest 7th Avenue, beyond which are an
apartment complex and residences. The majority of the site is zoned RS-12, Medium High
Residential, by the City of Corvallis. The northeastern portion of the site is zoned MUC, Mixed
Use Commercial.
As part of this investigation, VERTEX reviewed two reports for the site completed by a previous
consultant. These reports discussed the findings of a Phase I ESA and a subsequent Phase II
ESA. According to the Phase I, the consultant, Environmental Inspection Services (EIS),
determined that the historic use of the site as a lumber mill and fertilizer company were potential
recognized environmental conditions. EIS installed eight test pits across the site on October 23,
2000. The test pits were installed in the vicinity of the former mill-pond, the site building, and in
the vicinity of suspected former railroad operation areas. Soil samples were collected from each
test pit and analyzed for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH). Soil samples collected from the
test pit installed in the vicinity of the former mill-pond (Test Pit #2) were analyzed for TPH-
Diesel Range (Dx), Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), toxicity characteristic leaching procedure
(TCLP) RCRA 8 metals, Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and volatile organic
compounds (VOCs). Analytical results indicated that the soil sample collected from Test Pit #2
contained 751 parts per million (ppm) of heavy oil. Heavy oil was also detected in soil samples
collected from two other test pits; however, these results were not quantified. EIS determined
that the heavy oil impacts were most likely associated with surface runoff and were not
indicative of an on-site release. Analytical results of the remaining samples were either non-
detect or below applicable regulatory standards. Based on the results of this investigation, EIS
determined that no additional investigation was warranted.
A review of local, state, and federal regulatory databases revealed several facilities within the
ASTM-specified search radii of the site at which releases of oil or hazardous materials have
_____________________________________________________________________________________
6
occurred. Considering the distance from the site, regulatory status, and/or the assumed
groundwater flow direction in the site vicinity, these facilities are not considered RECs.
VERTEX observed a concrete vault filled with gravel located immediately west of the site building.
This vault appears to have been constructed during development of the current site building.
Although no information regarding the historic use of this vault was available, the potential exists
that this vault may have been utilized by the former on-site fertilizer company for storage or mixing
of fertilizer. As such, the existence of this vault is considered a concern to this investigation.
ASTM/AAI Conclusions and Recommendations
VERTEX has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment in conformance with the
scope and limitations of ASTM Practice E 1527-05 of 7th Street Station, located at 1100
Southwest 7th Street, Corvallis, Oregon. Any exceptions to, or deletions from, these practices are
described in Section 10.0 of this report.
This assessment has revealed evidence of the following Recognized Environmental Conditions
(RECs) in connection with the site:
• Environmental concerns generally associated with lumber mills include the use and
storage of petroleum products, various lubricant and solvents, and wood
treatment/preservative chemicals. As such, the historic use of the site as a lumber mill is
considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with railroads and railroad maintenance
consist of petroleum, metals, PCB, solvents, and PAH impacts. As such, the existence of
an on-site railroad spur and historic railroad round house is considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with fertilizer storage and usage at the site
consist of potential pesticide/herbicide and metals impacts. As such, the historic use of
the site as a fertilizer company is considered a REC.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
7
• Historical research indicates that a fuel oil tank was located on the southeastern portion of
the site from at least the late 1920s through the late 1940s. No removal documentation
has been identified. The existence of this tank and potential associated impacts is
considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with railroad switch-yards include the
storage and use of petroleum products and lubricants, metals, PCBs, as well as creosote
impacts from railroad ties. As such, the historic use of the eastern adjacent property as a
railroad switch-yard is considered a concern to this investigation.
• Two former mill ponds on the western portion of the property were filled between 1954
and 1967. The nature of the soil fill materials is not known, but may include coal, coal
ash, wood, wood ash, slag and other materials containing elevated concentrations of
petroleum, PAHs, and metals. As such, the potential use of urban fill materials in the
pond area is considered a concern to this investigation.
Although a subsurface investigation was conducted at the site in October 2000, groundwater
below the site was not sampled and soil samples were not analyzed for all contaminants of
concern. Therefore, VERTEX recommends that a limited subsurface investigation be
conducted at the site to determine if the historic use of the site as a lumber mill and fertilizer
company has impacted the subsurface of the site. VERTEX also recommends that the limited
subsurface investigation address areas not included or properly investigated in the October
2000 subsurface investigation, including: the potential former fuel oil tank location on the
southeastern portion of the site, the on-site railroad spur and roundhouse, the debris piles, and
the on-site concrete vault.
In addition, VERTEX identified the following non-ASTM concerns related to the site:
• Based on the date of construction of the current site building (1950s or 1960s), it is
possible that asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paints (LBPs) were
utilized during construction. All suspect ACMs and painted surfaces appeared to be in
fair condition. Prior to any renovation or demolition activities, suspect ACMs and LBPs
_____________________________________________________________________________________
8
should sampled and analyzed for asbestos content. Confirmed ACMs and LBPs should be
managed in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
• Debris piles containing regulated materials (railroad ties, concrete, asphalt, etc.) were
observed at the site. These stockpiles will require proper management and off-site
disposal.

sewer utilities. No evidence of a septic system or leachfield was observed during the site visit.
During the site visit, stormwater catch basins were observed on the northern portion of the site.
No concerns were related to on-site utilities were identified.
3.4 Environmental Setting
3.4.1 Topography
The site is generally level, with an elevation of approximately 235 feet above mean sea level
(AMSL). In general, topography throughout the site vicinity slopes gently downward to the east-
southeast, towards the Willamette River and Mary’s River.
3.4.2 Surface Water and Wetlands
Surface water bodies were not observed at the site. According to the United States Fish and
Wildlife Service, National Wetlands Inventory Map, wetlands are not located on the site.
3.4.3 Subsurface Geologic Conditions
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resource Conservation Service
(NRCS), Soil Survey for Benton County, subsurface soils at the site consist of Amity Silt Loam, 0
to 3 percent slopes, and Willamette Silt Loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes, and are described as:
Typical (Amity) profile: “0 to 7 inches: Silt loam, 7 to 16 inches: Silt loam, 16 to 22
inches: Silt loam, 22 to 28 inches: Silty clay loam, 28 to 35 inches: Silty clay loam, 35 to
72 inches: Silt loam.”
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Typical (Willamette) profile: “0 to 6 inches: Silt loam, 6 to 13 inches: Silt loam, 13 to 24
inches: Silt loam, 24 to 33 inches: Silty clay loam, 33 to 45 inches: Silty clay loam, 45 to
53 inches: Silty clay loam, 53 to 60 inches: Silty clay loam.”
Bedrock outcrops were not observed at the site.
3.4.4 Groundwater
Based on regional and local topography, groundwater is expected to flow in an east-southeasterly
direction across the site. The Oregon Water Resources Department (WRD) reports that no water
wells exist on the subject property. According to the WRD, groundwater is typically
encountered between 12 feet below ground surface (bgs) and 25 bgs in the site vicinity, with
averages around 16 feet bgs. Actual local groundwater flow direction can be influenced by
factors such as underground structures, seasonal fluctuations, soil and bedrock geology, and
production wells, none of which were considered during this study.

Based on a review of the aerial photographs, the site was developed with a lumber mill and
railroad spur prior to 1954. The site was then developed with the current site building between
1954 and 1967. Surrounding historic property use appeared to be largely residential; however,
properties to the northeast of the site appeared developed with commercial buildings. No
information regarding specific operations conducted by former occupants is available. However,
environmental concerns generally associated with lumber mills include the use and storage of
petroleum products, various lubricant and solvents, and wood treatment/preservative chemicals
(contaminants of concern include copper, arsenic, and chromium). As such, the historic use of
the site as a lumber mill is considered a concern to this investigation. The existence of an on-site
railroad spur is also considered a concern to this investigation. Environmental concerns typically
associated with railroads consist of petroleum, metals, PCBs, PAHs, and creosote impacts. Based
on aerial photographs reviewed, the presence of the on-site rail spur and the historic use of the
eastern adjacent property as a railroad switch-yard are considered concerns to this investigation.
5.3 Topographic Maps
Topographic maps including the site and adjoining properties were obtained from EDR. Copies
of the topographic maps are included in Appendix D. A summary of the information obtained
from the review is provided below.

properties on these topographic maps are consistent with the findings of other historic sources
reviewed. The historic use of the property and the eastern adjacent property is considered a
concern to this investigation.
5.4 City Directories
As part of this investigation, VERTEX reviewed city directories at the Corvallis Public Library
for the years 1953 through 2008 at approximate 5-year intervals. The site has been historically
listed as 709 and 711 Southwest 7th Street, Corvallis, Oregon. The following is a table
representing VERTEX’s findings.

According to the city directories reviewed, the site was occupied by a lumber mill in the 1950s
and a fertilizer company in the 1960s. The description of the site occupants is consistent with the
findings of other historic sources reviewed. Environmental concerns typically associated with
fertilizer storage and usage consist of pesticide/herbicide and metals impacts. As such, the
historic use of the site as a fertilizer company is considered a concern to this investigation.
5.5 Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps
A search of Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps by EDR, owner of one of the largest and most
complete collections of Sanborn fire insurance maps, was requested by VERTEX. Copies of the
Sanborn maps are included in Appendix E. A summary of the information obtained from the
review is provided below.

The surrounding areas appear as residences, undeveloped land, and railroad
tracks.
Potential existence of a former on-site fuel oil tank and oil storage area.
The presence of a former on-site lumber mill, railroad spur, railroad turn-table (generally
associated with railroad maintenance activities), oil storage building, and potential fuel oil tank is
considered a concern to this investigation. The existence of the eastern adjacent railroad switch-
yard and freight depot is also considered a concern to this investigation.
5.6 Previous Environmental Investigations and Site Releases
As part of this investigation, VERTEX reviewed previous environmental investigations for the
site. The following summarizes the environmental history and concerns previously identified for
the site. Copies of selected previous reports and site summaries reviewed are presented in
Appendix B.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
21
Level 1 Environmental Site Assessment, Environmental Inspection Services, September 19,
2000
Environmental Inspection Services (EIS) conducted a Level 1 Environmental Site Assessment
(ESA) of the site in September 2000. According to this report, EIS determined that the historic
use of the site as a lumber mill and fertilizer company were potential recognized environmental
conditions. EIS also noted several debris piles across the site and an area of stressed vegetation
to the north of the site building. EIS stated that the site was occupied by Seed Research, a seed
cleaning facility, from 1982 until at least 2000. This report did not mention the potential
existence of a former on-site fuel oil tank. EIS determined that a subsurface investigation be
conducted in the vicinity of the former mill and in the vicinity of the debris piles and stressed
vegetation. EIS also recommended that a magnetometer survey be conducted at the site to
determine if USTs were located on the site.
Phase II Test Pit Excavation and Sampling, EIS, November 13, 2000
According to this report, EIS installed eight test pits across the site on October 23, 2000. Each
test pit was installed to depths between six and ten feet below grade. The length of the test pits
varied. Groundwater was not encountered during this investigation. The test pits were installed in
the vicinity of the former mill-pond, the site building, and in the vicinity of suspected former
railroad operation areas. Soil samples were collected from each test pit and analyzed for Total
Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH). Soil samples collected from the test pit installed in the vicinity
of the former mill-pond (Test Pit #2) were analyzed for TPH-Diesel Range (Dx), Polychlorinated
Biphenyls (PCBs), toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) RCRA 8 metals,
Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Analytical
results indicated that the soil sample collected from Test Pit #2 contained 751 parts per million
(ppm) of heavy oil. This sample appears to have been collected from a depth between four and
eight feet below grade in an area of observed wood debris fill material. Heavy oil was also
detected in Test Pits #7 and #8; however, these results were not quantified. EIS determined that
the heavy oil impacts were most likely associated with surface runoff and were not indicative of
an on-site release. Analytical results of the remaining samples were either non-detect or below
_____________________________________________________________________________________
22
applicable regulatory standards. Based on the results of this investigation, EIS determined that no
additional investigation was warranted.

VERTEX also conducted a review of municipal and regulatory records at various local agencies
(referenced in Appendix B). Interviews were conducted with officials from these agencies to
obtain specific information about areas located on or near the site with reported environmental
concerns.
Included in the EDR database report is also an orphan summary. This summary identifies
facilities that are contained on one of the above referenced databases or lists, but that did not
contain complete or accurate geographic data. Consequently, EDR was unable to map the
facilities in relation to the site. VERTEX reviewed the orphan summary prior to inspecting the
site and surrounding properties. Orphan properties located within ASTM search distances of the
site (if any) were incorporated into VERTEX’s review.
6.1 Federal Regulatory Records
6.1.1 On-Site Listings
The site was not identified on any of the federal regulatory databases reviewed,
6.1.2 Off-Site Listings
A review of the federal regulatory databases identified one CORRACTS facility and one RCRA-
CESQG facility within the ASTM specified search radii of the site. The CORRACTS facility is
located more than 2,800 feet hydraulically downgradient of the site. Based on the separation
distance and non-tributary hydraulic relationship relative to the site, this facility is not considered
a concern to this investigation. The RCRA CESQG facility is located approximately 700 feet
east of the site. According to this listing, no violations regarding hazardous waste management
_____________________________________________________________________________________

7.0 ON-SITE ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
7.1 Storage Tanks
7.1.1 Underground Storage Tanks (USTs)
Visual evidence (i.e., vent/fill pipes, dispensers, etc.) indicating current or historic USTs was not
observed at the site during this investigation. Additionally, a magnetometer survey conducted at the
site in October 2000 did not identify any anomalies indicative of USTs. However, the presence of a
fuel oil structure was identified on historic maps of the site. See Section 5.5 for more information
on the historic oil tank.
7.1.2 Aboveground Storage Tanks (ASTs)
Visual evidence indicating current or historic ASTs was not observed at the site during this
investigation.
7.2 Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACMs)
Based on the date of construction of the current site building (1950s or 1960s), it is possible that
ACMs were utilized during construction. Potential ACMs observed within the site building
consisted of sheetrock. All suspect ACMs appeared to be in fair condition. Prior to any
renovation or demolition activities, suspect ACMs should sampled and analyzed for asbestos
content. Confirmed ACMs should be managed in accordance with all applicable local, state, and
federal regulations.
7.3 Lead Based Paint (LBP)
Based on the date of construction of the current site building (1950s or 1960s), it is possible that
LBPs were utilized during construction. Painted surfaces appeared to be in good condition. Prior
to any renovation or demolition activities, suspect LBPs should sampled and analyzed for lead
_____________________________________________________________________________________
28
content. Confirmed LBPs should be managed in accordance with all applicable local, state, and
federal regulations.
7.4 Hazardous Material Usage
Hazardous materials were not observed during the site reconnaissance.
7.5 Solid Waste Management
Several large debris piles consisting of railroad ties, rubber mats, concrete, and asphalt were
observed along the southeastern side of the site. VERTEX was unable to inspect the areas below
the stored railroad ties. No staining or stressed vegetation was observed in the vicinity of these
debris piles. No information regarding the origination of these materials was available. The
existence of these debris piles is considered a concern to this investigation.
7.6 Hazardous Waste Management
Hazardous waste is not currently generated on site.
7.7 Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCB) Containing Equipment
Four pole-mounted transformers were observed along the northwest property boundary. One of
these transformers was labeled as “non-PCB” containing. No labeling indicating the PCB content
of the remaining transformers was visible. These transformers appeared to be older and
weathered; however, no staining indicative of a release was observed in the vicinity of these
transformers. Additionally, these transformers are owned and operated by Pacific Power, who
would ultimately be responsible in the event of a release. As such, these transformers are not
considered a concern to this investigation.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
29
7.8 Water, Wastewater and Storm Water
7.8.1 Water Supply
The site is currently connected the City of Corvallis municipal water supply. Water supply is not
considered a concern to this investigation.
7.8.2 Wastewater
The site is connected the City of Corvallis sanitary sewer. VERTEX did not observe evidence of
historic septic systems or leachfields at the site. Wastewater is not considered a concern to this
investigation.
7.8.3 Storm Water
Storm sewer service is provided to the site by the City of Corvallis. Storm water is directed to
swales and appears to flow to on-site storm drains or infiltrate directly across the site. According
to the Federal Emergency Management Agency Flood Map for Corvallis, Oregon, the site is not
located within the 100-year or the 500- year flood zones. Storm water is not considered a concern
to this investigation.
7.9 Surface Water and Wetlands
No bodies of water are located on the site. Mary’s River is located approximately 750 feet
southeast of the site. According to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, National
Wetlands Inventory Map, wetlands are not located on the site.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
30
7.10 Radon
The site is located within a Zone 3 radon area, meaning that the predicted average indoor radon
level is less than 2 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L). The EPA action level for radon is 4 pCi/L.
Therefore, the site is located in an area with a low radon potential. Currently, there are no below
grade structures at the site; therefore, radon is not considered a concern to this investigation.
7.11 Air Emissions
There were no observed emissions from operations on-site that required permitting, emission
controls, or abatement activities. No additional controls were identified as being required during
this assessment.
7.12 Dry Cleaning Operations
Site reconnaissance, as well as review of available regulatory records, did not reveal the presence
of current or historic on-site dry cleaning operations.
7.13 Site Specific Environmental Issues
VERTEX observed a concrete vault filled with gravel located immediately west of the site building.
This vault appears to have been constructed during development of the current site building.
Although no information regarding the historic use of this vault is available, the potential exists that
this vault may have been utilized by the former on-site fertilizer company for storage or mixing of
fertilizer. As such, the existence of this vault is considered a concern to this investigation. No other
site-specific environmental concerns were identified during the assessment other than those
discussed above and within previous sections of this report.

8.0 REVIEW OF NEARBY/ADJACENT PROPERTIES
The site is located in a mixed residential and commercial area of Corvallis, Oregon. Adjoining
properties were observed (from the site or from public access areas) for signs of RECs and their
potential to pose an environmental concern to the site. The uses and features of adjoining
properties are described below. The locations of these properties relative to the site are also
depicted on Figure 2.

9.0 ASTM/AAI CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMENDATIONS
VERTEX has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment in conformance with the
scope and limitations of ASTM Practice E 1527-05 of the 7th Street Station property, located at
1100 Southwest 7th Street, Corvallis, Oregon. Any exceptions to, or deletions from, this
practices are described in Section 10.0 of this report.
This assessment has revealed evidence of the following Recognized Environmental Conditions
(RECs) in connection with the site:
• Environmental concerns generally associated with lumber mills include the use and
storage of petroleum products, various lubricant and solvents, and wood
treatment/preservative chemicals. As such, the historic use of the site as a lumber mill is
considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with railroads and railroad maintenance
consist of petroleum, metals, PCB, solvents, and PAH impacts. As such, the existence of
an on-site railroad spur and historic railroad round house is considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with fertilizer storage and usage at the site
consist of potential pesticide/herbicide and metals impacts. As such, the historic use of
the site as a fertilizer company is considered a REC.
• Historical research indicates that a fuel oil tank was located on the southeastern portion of
the site from at least the late 1920s through the late 1940s. No removal documentation
has been identified. The existence of this tank and potential associated impacts is
considered a REC.
• Environmental concerns typically associated with railroad switch-yards include the
storage and use of petroleum products and lubricants, metals, PCBs, as well as creosote
impacts from railroad ties. As such, the historic use of the eastern adjacent property as a
railroad switch-yard is considered a concern to this investigation.
• Two former mill ponds on the western portion of the property were filled between 1954
and 1967. The nature of the soil fill materials is not known, but may include coal, coal
ash, wood, wood ash, slag and other materials containing elevated concentrations of
_____________________________________________________________________________________
33
petroleum, PAHs, and metals. As such, the potential use of urban fill materials in the
pond area is considered a concern to this investigation.
Although a subsurface investigation was conducted at the site in October 2000, groundwater
below the site was not sampled and soil samples were not analyzed for all contaminants of
concern. Therefore, VERTEX recommends that a limited subsurface investigation be
conducted at the site to determine if the historic use of the site as a lumber mill and fertilizer
company has impacted the subsurface of the site. VERTEX also recommends that the limited
subsurface investigation address areas not included or properly investigated in the October
2000 subsurface investigation, including: the potential former fuel oil tank location on the
southeastern portion of the site, the on-site railroad spur and roundhouse, the debris piles, and
the on-site concrete vault.
In addition, VERTEX identified the following non-ASTM concerns related to the site:
• Based on the date of construction of the current site building (1950s or 1960s), it is
possible that asbestos containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paints (LBPs) were
utilized during construction. All suspect ACMs and painted surfaces appeared to be in
fair condition. Prior to any renovation or demolition activities, suspect ACMs and LBPs
should sampled and analyzed for asbestos content. Confirmed ACMs and LBPs should be
managed in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal regulations.
• Debris piles containing regulated materials (railroad ties, concrete, asphalt, etc.) were
observed at the site. These stockpiles will require proper management and off-site
disposal.

10.0 QUALIFICATIONS
Our professional services have been performed, our findings obtained, and our recommendations
prepared in accordance with customary principles and practices in the fields of environmental
science and engineering. This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties either expressed or
implied. VERTEX is not responsible for the independent conclusions, opinions or
recommendations made by others based on the records review, site inspection, field exploration,
and laboratory test data presented in this report.
It should be noted that all surficial environmental assessments are inherently limited in the sense
that conclusions are drawn and recommendations developed from information obtained from
limited research and site evaluation. Subsurface conditions were not field investigated as part of
this study and may differ from the conditions implied by the surficial observations. Additionally,
the passage of time may result in a change in the environmental characteristics at this site and
surrounding properties. This report does not warrant against future operations or conditions, nor
does this warrant operations or conditions present of a type or at a location not investigated. This
report is not a regulatory compliance audit.
It must be noted that no investigation can absolutely rule out the existence of any hazardous
materials at a given site. This assessment has been based upon prior site history and observable
conditions. Existing hazardous materials and contaminants can escape detection using these
methods.
Our conclusions regarding the potential environmental impact of nearby, off-site facilities on the
subject site are based on readily available information from the environmental databases and the
assumed groundwater flow direction. A detailed file review of each facility was beyond the
scope of work. Actual subsurface groundwater conditions can only be determined through the
installation of monitoring wells.
