Exposed Soils: Observed Exposed Soils Violation: No
Use of Basements: Not Observed Basement Violation: No
Summary: Inspected active VIMS fans mounted on the exterior of the townhome units
along W. Tremont (Photo 1). Each of the active fans checked during the Site Inspection
were operating. Inspected townhome foundations where VIMS barrier had been started
on prior Site Inspection (Photo 2), where no issues were observed. In addition, sub-slab
monitoring points and the plastic vaults which they are located within were also observed
during sub-slab sampling activities (Photos 5-9).
Summary: N/A
Summary: New construction townhomes in varying stages of completion. Sub-slab and
indoor air sampling performed on units bordering W. Tremont which are close to
occupancy
Summary: Exposed soils are present and are consistent with the EMP and site
development activities taking place.
Summary: N/A

IV. Inspector Comments
V. PHOTOGRAPHS
Photo 1: Low profile Fantech active VIMS fan on rear of townhome. Fan is plumbed into dark
brown gutter material being used as a VIMS Riser which exits on top of roof. Signage visible on
garage door warning contractors to keep door closed during IA air sampling event.
Observed sub-slab soil gas collection into 1.4-liter summa (and duplicate), in addition to a separate
sub-slab sampling event in which sorbent tubes were used for mercury sampling (Photos 5-9).
Confirmed that 2” dia. PVC monitoring points were properly purged prior to collecting sub-slab air
samples which they were, with H&H having a sheet of precalculated purge volumes and lengths of
time based on sampling pump flow rate. Observed helium leak checks, etc.
