The ESA was conducted under the supervision or responsible charge of Mark W. Mulligan, Environmental Professional. Igor I. Karimov performed the site reconnaissance on January 22, 2020. Findings and Opinions A summary of findings is provided below. It should be recognized that details were not included or fully developed in this section, and the report must be read in its entirety for a comprehensive understanding of the items contained herein. Site Description and Use The site is located at the Southeast Corner of Mary Louis Lane and Orange Avenue, Kissimmee, Osceola County, Florida. The site is comprised of four contiguous parcels of vacant land totaling 16.56 acres and identified by the Osceola County Property Appraiser as Parcel IDs 03-25-29-4573-00001-0030 (3.49 acres), 03-25-29-4573-00001-0010 (4.12 acres), 03-25-29- 4573-00001-0020 (5.72 acres), and 03-25-29-4573-00001-00A0 (3.23 acres). A portion of the site has been developed with a stormwater pond. Historical Information Based on a review of the historical information, the site was sparsely wooded land from at least 1944 until the late 2010s, when the current stormwater pond was dug out in the east portion of the site. The surrounding properties were historically used as an aluminum flatbed and dump trailer producing facility, a stormwater pond, roads, a railroad, a petroleum pipeline and SunRail station parking area. Records Review Select federal and state environmental regulatory databases as well as responses from state and local regulatory agencies were reviewed. The site was not identified in the regulatory databases. Two Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUST) and four Solid Waste Facilities/Landfill (SWF/LF) facilities were identified within the ASTM-specified search radii. Based on distance, environmental setting and/or facility characteristics, the identified facilities do not constitute recognized environmental conditions (RECs). Responsive ■ Resourceful ■ Reliable i Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Lot 21 ■ Kissimmee, Florida January 28, 2020 ■ Terracon Project No. H1207009 Site Reconnaissance During the site reconnaissance, the site was vacant land with a pond on the east portion of the site. Based on site reconnaissance observations, RECs were not identified associated with the current site operations. Adjoining Properties The adjoining property to the north is Mary Louis Lane followed by wooded land with a Kinder Morgan Valve Station #16-23. The adjoining properties to the east are Ravens Marine Inc. (a producer of aluminum flatbed and dump trailers), a stormwater pond, SunRail Tupperware train station parking area and a railroad followed by wooded land. The adjoining property to the south is Tupperware Boulevard followed by vacant land. The adjoining property to the west is Orange Avenue followed by vacant land and apartment complex to the southwest. Pipeline markers were observed along the north and east boundaries of the site. Stressed vegetation, staining, releases or noxious odors were not observed in the vicinity of the pipeline. Associated labeling indicated that the pipeline contains petroleum and ethanol and was owned by Kinder Morgan’s Central Florida Pipeline LLC. On January 14, 2020, Terracon contacted Kinder Morgan via email regarding any spills or discharges from the ethanol & petroleum pipeline observed at the site. At the issuance of this report, a response had not been received from Kinder Morgan. Reported discharges or cleanup activities in connection with the pipeline were not identified through review of the information available on the FDEPs website OCULUS. RECs were not observed with the adjoining properties. Conclusions We have performed a Phase I ESA consistent with the procedures included in ASTM Practice E 1527-13 at Southeast Corner of Mary Louis Lane and Orange Avenue, Kissimmee, Osceola County, Florida (Osceola County Property Appraiser parcels 03-25-29-4573-00001-0030, 03- 25-29-4573-00001-0010, 03-25-29-4573-00001-0020 and 03-25-29-4573-00001-00A0), the site. RECs, Historical RECs (HRECs) or Controlled RECs (CRECs) were not identified in connection with the site. Recommendations Based on the scope of services, limitations, and conclusions
