Phase I Environmental Site Assessment <br />Riverside Conoco <br />1350 Myers Avenue <br />Batesville, Arkansas <br />selling petroleum from USTs on the subject property is compounded by the <br />abandonment of the operation. Currently there are two (2) unresolved violations <br />against the subject property's storage tank permit. One of the violations is for failure <br />to provide release detection documentation. Failure to monitor a tank system for a <br />release has the potential to allow a release to go undiscovered, exacerbating the <br />problem. In addition to the violations, DEQ noted that the tanks were both low on <br />fuel: at that time, Tank #1 had 8 inches of product and Tank #2 had 9 inches of <br />product. Being in place with low fuel creates a risk that the tanks will float, causing <br />damage to the piping and allowing a release to occur. No evidence of a release was <br />reported in that compliance evaluation, and evidence of a release was not observed <br />during the site reconnaissance for this assessment. However, the tank system being in <br />place with low fuel is considered a material threat of a release. <br />10.0 CONCLUSIONS <br />PMI has performed a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment in conformance with the <br />scope and limitations of ASTM E1527-21 of the retail service station located at 1350 <br />Myers Avenue in Batesville, Arkansas. Any exceptions to or deletions from this <br />practice are described in Section 1.0 of this report. This assessment has revealed one <br />(1) recognized environmental condition (REC) in connection with the subject property, <br />which was previously discussed in report Section 9.0. <br />18 <br />
