potential contaminant vapor concerns at or adjoining the subject site; and
6. Preparation of a.-report
Optional Task 1: Asbestos and Lead Paint Assessment
As LOR does not conduct asbestos and lead-based paint surveys in-house, a
subconSLI]tant(s) specialspecializing in these rvey§ will be utilized to. satisfy the needs of the
—
project. LOR personnel will coordinate with one.o—

produce a written report. LOR will provide this report under a cover letterwith summarized
results to the City.

As the Phase I ESA has not been conducted, the full Scope.of Work for a Phase 11 ESA
cannot be developed at the present time. However, based of the past use of most of the
subject site for agricultural grove and irrigated or dryland farming,
ng, conservatively the.whole
site should be sampled for oManochlorinp_pes.ticides (OCPs).and arsenic, indluding-81ong
any remaining natural 'drainage' features. Using—fth—eCalifornia Department of Toxic
Substances Control-Interim Guidance for Sampling Agricultural Properties(Third.Revision),
dated August 7, 2008, fifty-two,'(52) discrete soil samples are proposed to be collected
across the subject Site from surric`ii_df_�soils. Forty-eight_(48) of these fifty-tW6(52), collected
from the Georgia Capital, Hubbs, Johansen, and Fo Fan Chi Ming, LLC properti el's,Will be

anticipated at the. Georgia Capital property may make it difficult to collect the proposed
samples, and may require a modification of scope and costs to achieve soil sample
collection. The proposed Phase II ESA, along with the Phase I.ESA, is anticipated to be
combined in a single report.
Any additional proposed Phase li ESA Scope of Work cannot be forecast at the present
time, and can be developed during or following completion of the Phase I ESA.
All environmental professional services will be performed in accordance with generally
