1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Impact Environmental has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment in conformance with the

scope and limitations of ASTM Practice E 1527-05 of 38-20 28th Street, Long Island City, NY, (The Site)

under contract to by 2318 Flatbush Avenue Corp. (The Client). Any exceptions to, or deletions from, this

practice are described in Section 2.2 of this report.

The Site is situated in a mixed use residential/commercial zoning area of Astoria-Long Island City, County of

Queens, City of New York, New York. The extent of the Site is approximately 0.10 acres. The Site contains

one two-story, masonry and wood building constructed prior to 1898 (with a basement), with an approximate

footprint of 750 square feet. The building maintained on the Site is utilized as a dwelling. The Site also

contains one one-story timber private automobile garage. One storm water drywell is located on the Site for

storm water drainage. The surface area of the Site consists of asphalt parking areas and concrete sidewalks.

The Site is bound to the north by residential property; to the south by residential property; to the west by

residential property and a pre-school; and to the east by 28th Street and beyond by residential and

commercial property, and an automobile garage.

A review of historical documentation revealed that the Site has maintained residential dwellings since at least

1898. The existing building was historically heated by fuel oil. An inactive fuel oil fill port, indicative of a UST

was observed on the Site. No documentation was available regarding the proper decommissioning of the fuel

oil tank maintained on the Site. This lack of documentation represents a recognized environmental condition.

Accordingly, it is recommended that a ground penetrating radar survey be conducted to determine if the UST

is still present. Further it is recommended that a limited subsurface investigation be conducted to determine if

the Site has been impacted.

Several off-site confirmed or potential contamination sources were identified to exist within the ASTM search

radius. Specifically, a review of available records revealed that a NYSDEC Spill has occurred on an adjacent

property, an auto repair facility was maintained contiguous to the Site and a manufacturing facility was

historically maintained on a contiguous property. The need for the above-recommended on-site investigative

activities is further supported by the presence of these sources. In addition, the Site is listed as a hazardous-

e designation. Accordingly, it is recommended that the NYC Mayors Office of Environmental Remediation

(OER) be contacted to determine the
