5.1.8 PETROLEUM STORAGE TANK (PST) SITES Under RCRA States are authorized to establish their own PST Programs provided that they are no less stringent than Federal Regulations and they provide adequate enforcement. The State of Texas authorized the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to develop and enforce a PST Program. The TCEQ requires that all PST facility sites be registered with their agency. Each facility is assigned an identification number. A review of the TCEQ PST database revealed 6 sites in the vicinity of the subject property. PST ED.

TRI was established under the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act of 1986 and expanded under the Pollution Prevention Act of 1990. Facilities report their TRI information annually to EPA and to the state in which they are looted. A release is an on -site discharge of a toxic chemical to the environment, including emissions to the air, discharges to bodies of water, releases at the facility to land, as well as contained disposal into underground injection wells. A review of the TRI database revealed no sites in the vicinity of the subject property. 5.2.2 VOLUNTARY CLEANUP PROGRAM (VCP) SITES The Texas Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) provides administrative, technical, and legal incentives to encourage the cleanup of contaminated sites in Texas. Since all non -responsible parties, including future lenders and landowners, receive protection from liability to the state of Texas for cleanup of sites under the VCP, most of the constraints for completing real estate transactions at those sites are eliminated. As a result, many unused or under used properties may be restored to economically productive or community beneficial use. Also under the VCP, site cleanups follow a streamlined approach to reduce future human and environmental risk to safe levels. Any site not subject to an order or permit from the TCEQ is eligible to enter the VCP, except in cases where TCEQ enforcement action is pending. Typical applicants include dry cleaners, manufacturing facilities, shopping centers, warehouses, auto -related businesses, and other commercial and industrial enterprises. Of these sites, 420 have been issued final certificates of completion and 60 have received conditional certirfiotes. A review of the VCP database revealed no sites in thevicinity of the subject property. Commercial Property Geo-Tech Emrnironmental Inc. Broad.ay & East A St., to Porte, U T7571 Project Number:06343 22
