On January 27, 1998, Tim Daley of the City of Salem, notified Century West that the lateral service capping performed by Gelco on the Courthouse Square Project was satisfactory (Appendix F, Sewer Lateral Abandonment). 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND COORDINATION Some former uses of the subject property include auto repair, auto storage, and battery repair activities which pose a potential environmental concern. Historic product lines and a hoist were identified while demolishing the footings and basements. Evidence of a former fuel station was uncovered on the north end of the Senator Building as walls were removed. A"Gas Here" sign was uncovered on a wall inside the building, as well as parking stalls and other indications of former uses of the property. Historic reviews of the subject property revealed "Commercial activity includes auto supply, auto storage, auto repair, battery repair, a dance hall, and offices. A gas and oil facility ... is present on the northwest corner of the city block. Fuel tanks are identified along the west side of the station and in front of the auto supply store immediately south of the station," Level I Environmental Site Assessment, Marion County Properties, 1997 (Appendix G, Site Photographs, photos 7 and 8). These findings, and any other items of environmental concern, were logged and properly documented as they occurred. The documentation of historic findings was transferred to Marion County personnel and Century West personnel responsible for subsurface site remediation issues. 5.1 Lead Monitoring Staton Construction reviewed asbestos and lead survey data prior to demolition. During demolition, Staton Construction was to notify Marion County if suspected hazardous material was uncovered or disturbed in the structures. Staton Construction was required to take precautions as necessary to avoid disturbing suspected lead or asbestos containing materials identified in prior surveys or uncovered during demolition. Lead-based paint was identified in some of the structures on the site prior to demolition and reported in the following reports prepared by Century West: Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Senator Property (February 1997); Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Goldberg Property (March 14, 1997); Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Community Development Property (March 14, 1997); Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Beri Property (March 11, 1997); Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Goodman Property (February 10, 1997); and Asbestos and Lead Survey and Hazardous Materials Survey Results, Lui Property (February 10, 1997).
