5.1.3 EMERGENCY RESPONSE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM (ERNS/NRC) SITES Information on release notifications of hazardous substances that have occurred throughout the USA and reported to the ten EPA regions, National Response Center (NRC), or U.S. Coast Guard. The database formerly known as ERNS is now managed by the National Response Center. The Emergency Response Notification System (ERNS) is a national database of reported incidents of releases of oil and other hazardous substances. A review of the NRC database revealed one NRC site in the vicinity of the subject property. Neither the subject property nor adjacent properties were identified as NRC sites. ERNSI.D.N..

Section 26.039 of the Texas Water Code requires that accidental spills and releases be reported to the TCEQ. 30 TAC 335.113 and 30 TAC 335.153 require that interim and permitted facilities report emergency situations to TCEQ. Report of releases from underground storage tanks is required under 30 TAC 334.72. The objective of each spill cleanup should be to return the site to pre -spill or background conditions. When this is not feasible, responsible parties are directed to the TCEQ Risk Reduction Rules. (See 30 TAC Chapter 335, Subchapter A for heahh-based cleanup standards, and guidance on deed recordation). A review of the SPIL database revealed 2 sites in the vicinity of the subject property. The Subject Property and the site adjacent to the subject property are Spill sites. A soil and/or groundwater investigation of the subject property should also be considered to determine the extent of any potential impact arising from the proximity of the SPIL site. 5.1.5 STATE SUPERFUND The Texas Legislature amended the Solid Waste Disposal Act (SWDA) in 1985 to create the State Superfund Program. The purpose of the program is to address abandoned or inactive sites within the State that do not qualify for action under the federal Superfund program and cannot be resolved under the hazardous waste program or an agreed administrative order. When the State Superfund Program was created in 1985, it applied only to hazardous wastes; however, in 1989, the Texas Legislature modified the SWDAto include releases of hazardous substances. A review of the TCEQ State Superfund database revealed no STSF sites in the vicinity of the subject Property. Commercial Property Geo-Tech Erwironmental Inc.
