     Section 5.2 Connecticut Transfer Act.. The parties acknowledge and agree that neither of them, respectively, has sufficient information to determine whether the Property constitutes an “establishment” and therefore, whether the transaction contemplated by this Agreement constitutes a “transfer of establishment” subject to the Connecticut Transfer Act, Conn. Gen. Stat. Section 22a-134 et seq., as amended (the “Act”). However, in the event that it is later determined, whether prior to the Closing or after the Closing, that the Property is in fact an “establishment”, Purchaser hereby assumes all liability for compliance with the Act, including without limitation, executing the appropriate form as the “certifying party”, filing the form together with the “environmental condition assessment form” with the Connecticut Commissioner of Environmental Protection in a timely manner and paying any and all fees or other charges required under the Act. The terms “establishment”, “transfer of establishment”, “certifying party”, and “environmental condition assessment form” shall be defined as they are defined in the Act. Purchaser hereby indemnifies and holds Seller harmless from any and all causes of action, claims, liabilities, losses, damages (compensatory, punitive or other), obligations, reimbursements, fees, assessments, expenses and costs of any kind or nature, actual, contingent, present, future, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected (including, without limitation, fines, penalties, interest, experts and attorney’s fees) arising out of, caused by, or

related to (i) any failure by Purchaser or any person or entity acting through Purchaser to comply with Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 5.2 and/or (ii) any actual and/or alleged non-compliance under the Act (including, without limitation, any actual and/or alleged non-compliance under the Act by Seller). The provision of this Section 5.2 shall survive, without limitation, Closing hereunder.

     Section 5.3 Purchaser’s Release of Seller

          (a) Seller Released From Liability. Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, and their respective partners, members, owners, officers, directors, agents, representatives and controlling persons, hereby releases Seller and Seller’s Affiliates, and their respective partners, members, owners, officers, directors, agents, representatives and controlling persons (collectively, the “Seller Released Parties”) from any and all liability, responsibility, claims, damages, losses and expenses arising out of or related to the condition (including the presence in the soil, air, structures and surface and subsurface waters, of Hazardous Substances that have been or may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous, undesirable or subject to regulation and that may need to be specially treated, handled and/or removed from the Property under current or future federal, state and local laws, regulations or guidelines), valuation, salability or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose whatsoever, except to the extent that such responsibility or liability is the result of the material inaccuracy (if any) of Seller’s representation under Section 8.1(i) hereof (as limited by Section 16.1 of this Agreement). Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, and their respective partners, members, owners, officers, directors, agents, representatives and controlling persons, specifically releases the Seller Released Parties from any and all responsibility, claims, damages, losses and expenses Purchaser may have against any of the Seller Released Parties now or in the future arising from the environmental condition of the Property or the presence of Hazardous Substances or contamination on or emanating from the Property.

          (a) Purchaser’s Waiver of Objections. Subject only to Seller’s responsibility for any breach of the warranty and representation contained in Section 8.1(i) of this Agreement (as limited by Section 16.1 of this Agreement), Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, and their respective partners, members, owners, officers, directors, agents, representatives and controlling persons, hereby waives any and all objections to or complaints (including but not limited to actions based on federal, state or common law and any private right of action under CERCLA, RCRA or any other state and federal law to which the Property is or may be subject) against any of the Seller Released Parties regarding physical characteristics and existing conditions, including without limitation structural and geologic conditions, subsurface soil and water conditions and solid and hazardous waste and Hazardous Substances on, under, adjacent to or otherwise affecting the Property or related to existing or prior uses of the Property.

          (b) Purchaser further hereby assumes the risk of changes in applicable laws and regulations relating to past, present and future environmental, safety or health conditions on, or resulting from the ownership or operation of, the Property, and the risk that adverse physical characteristics and conditions, including without limitation the presence of Hazardous Substances or other substances, may not be revealed by its investigation.

          (c) Survival. The provisions of this Section 5.3 shall survive, without limitation, either (i) the Closing and shall not be deemed merged into the provisions of any closing documents or (ii) any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI
TITLE AND SURVEY MATTERS

     Section 6.1 Survey. Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Seller has delivered to Purchaser a copy of that certain survey of the Real Property, dated January 31, 2007, prepared by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. D’▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. (the “Existing Survey”). Seller shall have no obligation to obtain any modification, update or recertification of the Existing Survey.

     Section 6.2 Title Commitment. Prior to the execution and delivery hereof, Purchaser has caused the Title Company to furnish to Purchaser a preliminary title report or title commitment, No. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,dated October 20, 2006 (the “Commitment”), by the terms of which the Title Company agrees to issue to Purchaser at Closing an owner’s policy of title insurance (the “Title Policy”) in the amount of the Purchase Price on the ALTA Owner Policy of Title Insurance with extended coverage, Standard Form Rev. 10/17/92 (as amended to date) insuring Purchaser’s fee simple title to the Real Property to be good and indefeasible, subject to the terms of such policy and the exceptions described therein. Subject to Section 6.2(b), all matters shown on the Existing Survey and exceptions listed in Schedule B of the Commitment are conclusively deemed to be acceptable to Purchaser. The term “Permitted Exceptions” means taxes and assessments for the year of Closing and for any other year if not yet due and payable as of Closing and all matters either shown on the Existing Survey or listed in Schedule B of the Commitment.

          (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Article VI to the contrary, Seller will be obligated to cure exceptions to title to the Real Property and Improvements relating to (or, as to (ii) below, cure or cause deletion from the Title Policy or affirmative title insurance over) (i) liens and security interests securing any loan to Seller and (ii) any other liens or security interests created by documents executed by Seller to secure monetary obligations, other than liens for ad valorem taxes and assessments for the current calendar year; provided nevertheless that in the event that Seller is unable to obtain either (i) a release in recordable form, of the mortgage dated April 30, 1970 listed as exception No. 13 on Schedule A, or (b) an undertaking by the Title Company to issue the Title Policy to Purchaser at Closing, without exception for said mortgage, Seller shall, notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in Section 16.1, indemnify Purchaser, with counsel of Seller’s choosing, against all loss, damage, costs and expense (including reasonable legal fees) incurred by Purchaser as a result of any attempt by the holder of said mortgage to collect the debt secured thereby.

          (b) Purchaser shall also provide to Seller’s attorneys a copy of any update to the Commitment issued by the Title Company on or prior to the Closing Date (an “Update”), together with copies of all exceptions listed thereon that Purchaser has not previously delivered copies of to Seller, promptly after Purchaser’s receipt thereof. If the Update discloses any Exception that is not a Permitted Exception and to which Purchaser objects, then Purchaser shall give a written notice (a “Title Notice”) to Seller on or prior to the tenth (10th) day after the date upon which Purchaser receives the Update first containing such exception (but in any event not

later than the Closing), as applicable, which notice shall identify any such exception. Any exceptions contained in any Update not included in a Title Notice timely given in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be deemed Permitted Exceptions. If Seller elects not to eliminate any such exception set forth in a Title Notice that is not a Permitted Exception and that Seller is not obligated to remove pursuant to this Section 6, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser within fifteen (15) days after Seller’s receipt of such Title Notice (but in any event not later than the Closing); provided, however, if Seller fails to so notify Purchaser within such 15-day period, then Seller shall be deemed to have elected not to eliminate such exception. Purchaser, within ten (10) days after Seller’s giving of such notice, or failure to give such notice, but in any event not later than the Closing, shall either (i) elect to terminate this Agreement by notice given to Seller (in which event this Agreement shall terminate and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement (except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) and the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Purchaser), or (ii) elect to accept title to the Property subject to such exception, without any abatement of the Purchase Price (it being understood that if Purchaser elects, or is deemed to have elected, to proceed under this clause (ii), then such exception shall constitute a Permitted Exception for purposes hereof). If Purchaser fails to make such election to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) day period, then Purchaser shall be deemed to have elected clause (ii) above with the same force and effect as if Purchaser had elected clause (ii) within such ten (10) day period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 6.2, any and all defects in or encumbrances against the title which come within the scope of the Standards of Title of the Connecticut Bar Association currently in force (“Title Standards”) shall not constitute valid exceptions on the part of Purchaser, if the Title Standards do not so provide, and provided that the Seller furnishes any affidavits or other instruments which may be required by the applicable Title Standards, and further provided title will be insurable at standard premiums by a the Title Company.

          (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if the Commitment discloses judgments, bankruptcies or other returns against other persons or entities having names the same as or similar to that of Seller, then Seller, on request and to the extent applicable, shall deliver to Purchaser or the Title Company affidavits to the effect that such judgments, bankruptcies or other returns are not against Seller. Seller shall be entitled to one (1) or more adjournments of the Closing for a period of time not to exceed sixty (60) days in the aggregate in order to remove any title exceptions as contemplated by this Article VI.

In the event the Closing of the purchase and sale transaction provided for herein does not occur as herein provided by reason of any default of Seller, Purchaser may, as Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy, elect by notice to Seller within ten (10) Business Days following the scheduled Closing Date, either of the following: (a) terminate this Agreement, in which event Purchaser will receive from Seller the Deposit, whereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement; or (b) seek to enforce specific performance of the Agreement, and in either event, Purchaser hereby waives all other remedies, including without limitation, any claim against Seller for damages of any type or kind including, without limitation, consequential or punitive damages. Failure of Purchaser to make the foregoing election within the foregoing ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed an election by Purchaser to terminate this Agreement and receive from Seller the Deposit, whereupon Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided herein.

     Section 13.1 Default by Purchaser. In the event the Closing and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein do not occur as provided herein by reason of any default of Purchaser, Purchaser and Seller agree it would be impractical and extremely difficult to fix the damages which Seller may suffer. Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that (i) an amount equal to the Deposit, together with all interest accrued thereon, is a reasonable estimate of the total net detriment Seller would suffer in the event Purchaser defaults and fails to complete the purchase of the property, and (ii) such amount will be the full, agreed and liquidated damages for Purchaser’s default and failure to complete the purchase of the property, and will be Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity) for any default of Purchaser resulting in the failure of consummation of the Closing, whereupon this agreement will terminate and Seller and Purchaser will have no further rights or obligations hereunder, except with respect to the termination surviving obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein will limit Seller’s remedies at law, in equity or as herein provided in the event of a breach by Purchaser of any its obligations which, by the specific terms hereof, survive termination.

     Section 13.1 Consequential and Punitive Damages. Each of Seller and Purchaser waive any right to ▇▇▇ the other for any consequential or punitive damages for matters arising

under this Agreement. This Section 13.3 shall survive, without limitation, Closing or termination of this Agreement.

ASSIGNMENT AND BINDING EFFECT

     Section 15.1 Assignment; Binding Effect. Purchaser will not have the right to assign this Agreement without Seller’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser and Seller may each assign its rights under this Agreement to an Affiliate of such assigning party without the consent of the non-assigning party, provided that any such assignment does not relieve the assigning party of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and no other party will be conferred any rights by virtue of this Agreement or be entitled to enforce any of the provisions hereof. Whenever a reference is made in this Agreement to Seller or Purchaser, such reference will include the successors and permitted assigns of such party under this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVI
PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITED SURVIVAL OF
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS

     Section 16.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

          (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Section 8.1 and Seller’s liability under Section 8.1 will survive the Closing for a period of three (3) months. With respect to any suit, claim or cause of action that Purchaser has or may have as a result of any alleged untruth, inaccuracy or breach of such representations or warranties under Section 8.1, Purchaser must give Seller written notice of any such claims, and must file any such suits, claims or causes of action against Seller based thereon, in each instance prior to the expiration of said three (3) month period. In the event Purchaser fails to provide such notice and file such suits, claims or causes of action within such three (3) month period, Seller shall have no liability whatsoever to Purchaser with respect to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 8.1. Purchaser agrees to first seek recovery under any insurance policies, and Service Contracts prior to seeking recovery from Seller, and Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser for such untruths, inaccuracies and/or breaches under Section 8.1 if Purchaser’s claim is satisfied from such insurance policies, or Service Contracts. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the Closing documents, in no event shall Seller’s liability for all such

untruths, inaccuracies and/or breaches under Section 8.1 (including Seller’s liability for attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with such untruths, inaccuracies and/or breaches) exceed, in the aggregate, $500,000.00.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Seller shall have no liability with respect to any of Seller’s representations, warranties and covenants herein if, prior to the Closing, Purchaser has actual knowledge of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein, or Purchaser obtains actual knowledge (from whatever source, including, without limitation, as a result of Purchaser’s due diligence tests, investigations and inspections of the Property; or as a result of written disclosure by Seller or any of Seller’s agents, representatives or employees) that contradicts any of Seller’s representations, warranties or covenants herein (and the representations and warranties of Seller shall be deemed modified thereby to be accurate), and Purchaser nevertheless consummates the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (in which event any such breach or contradiction shall be deemed waived by Purchaser).

          (c) All representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made or undertaken by Seller under this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided herein, will not survive the Closing Date but will be merged into the Closing documents delivered at the Closing. Obligations shall survive termination of this Agreement without limitation unless a specified period is otherwise provided in this Agreement.

ARTICLE XVII
1031 EXCHANGE

     Seller and Buyer agree that either party may elect to structure the purchase and sale of the Property within the meaning of Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code by assigning its rights, but not its obligations, hereunder to a qualified intermediary as provided in Income Tax Regulations Section 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4) on or before the Closing Date, provided that (a) the other party will not be required to incur any costs as a result of such like-kind exchange, (b) the Closing Date shall not be adjourned by reason thereof, (c) the other party will incur no expense, liability or obligation, in connection with said structuring, other than acknowledging and consenting to exchanging party’s assignment in connection with such exchange.

ARTICLE XVIII
MISCELLANEOUS

     Section 18.1 Waivers. No waiver of any breach of any covenant or provisions contained herein will be deemed a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach thereof, or of any other covenant or provision contained herein. No extension of time for performance of any obligation or act will be deemed an extension of the time for performance of any other obligation or act.

     Section 18.1 Recovery of Certain Fees. In the event a party hereto files any action or suit against another party hereto by reason of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements or provisions contained in this Agreement, then in that event the prevailing party will be entitled to have and recover of and from the other party all attorneys’ fees and costs resulting therefrom,

subject, however, in the case of Seller, to the limitations set forth in Section 16.1 above. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “attorneys’ fees” or “attorneys’ fees and costs” shall mean all court costs and the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which may include printing, photostatting, duplicating and other expenses, air freight charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of an attorney, and the costs and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or collection of any judgment obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of this Section 18.2 shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or be deemed to have merged, into any judgment.

     Section 18.3 Time of Essence. Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that time is strictly of the essence with respect to each and every term, condition, obligation and provision hereof.

     Section 18.4 Construction. Headings at the beginning of each article and section are solely for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context of this Agreement, the singular will include the plural and the masculine will include the feminine and vice versa. This Agreement will not be construed as if it had been prepared by one of the parties, but rather as if both parties had prepared the same. All exhibits and schedules referred to in this Agreement are attached and incorporated by this reference, and any capitalized term used in any exhibit or schedule which is not defined in such exhibit or schedule will have the meaning attributable to such term in the body of this Agreement. In the event the date on which Purchaser or Seller is required to take any action under the terms of this Agreement is not a Business Day, the action will be taken on the next succeeding Business Day.

     Section 18.5 Counterparts. To facilitate execution of this Agreement, this Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, when assembled to include an original or faxed signature for each party contemplated to sign this Agreement, will constitute a complete and fully executed agreement. All such fully executed original or faxed counterparts will collectively constitute a single agreement.

     Section 18.6 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all of the other conditions and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any adverse manner to either party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to reflect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

     Section 18.7 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final expression of, and contains the entire agreement between, the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings with respect thereto. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, supplemented or terminated, nor may any obligations hereunder be waived, except by written instrument, signed by the party to be charged or by its agent duly authorized in writing, or as otherwise expressly permitted herein.

     Section 18.8 Governing Law. This agreement will be construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.

     Section 18.9 No Recording. The parties hereto agree that neither this Agreement nor any affidavit concerning it will be recorded.

     Section 18.10 Further Actions. The parties agree to execute such instructions to the Title Company and such other instruments and to do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

     Section 18.11 No Other Inducements. The making, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto has been induced by no representations, statements, warranties or agreements other than those expressly set forth herein.

     Section 18.12 No Partnership. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not be deemed or construed to make the parties hereto partners or joint venturers, it being the intention of the parties to merely create the relationship of Seller and Purchaser with respect to the Property to be conveyed as contemplated hereby.

     Section 18.13 Limitations on Benefits. It is the explicit intention of Purchaser and Seller that no person or entity other than Purchaser and Seller and their permitted successors and assigns is or shall be entitled to bring any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement against any of the parties hereto, and the covenants, undertakings and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable only by, Purchaser and Seller or their respective successors and assigns as permitted hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall under any circumstances whatsoever be deemed or construed, or be interpreted, as making any third party a beneficiary of any term or provision of this Agreement or any instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto, and Purchaser and Seller expressly reject any such intent, construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

     Section 18.14 Limitation of Liability. In no event whatsoever shall recourse be had or liability asserted against any of Seller’s partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, officers or other owners of Seller or their respective constituent partners or members. Seller’s direct and indirect shareholders, beneficiaries and owners and their respective trustees, officers, directors, employees, agents and security holders, assume no personal liability for any obligations entered into on behalf of Seller under this Agreement and the Closing documents.

     Section 18.15 Reference to Time. Whenever reference is made herein to a time of day, the said reference shall be deemed to refer to Eastern Standard Time.

     1. Transferor is not a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate (as those terms are defined in the Internal Revenue Code and Income Tax Regulations);

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report presents the results of URS Corporation AES (URS)’ Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA) of the property at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Site” or “subject property”) in Greenwich, Connecticut. The Phase I ESA was conducted to identify if Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) are present at the subject property. The Phase I ESA was conducted in accordance with the methods and procedures described in the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) “Standard Practice for Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process” (E 1527-00 as currently amended). The Phase I ESA was conducted pursuant to, and in accordance with, URS’ October 13, 2006 Proposal HAR-148-1411.

The Site consists of 2.743-acres currently improved with four multi-story buildings used for office space. The main structure at the Site (Building 1 and Building 2) consists of approximately 260,500 square feet and houses UST Inc. There is a small museum near the entrance to the property and an additional residential/commercial building (17 Field Point Road) on the property. The remainder of the subject property is covered with asphalt paving, landscaping and manicured lawn. Properties adjacent to the Site are primarily used for commercial purposes.

URS observed two recognized environmental conditions (RECs) at the subject property during the Site reconnaissance.

	•		A small area of staining caused by a leaking gasket from a natural gas garage generator. The garage generator was not located within an area capable of containing spills or overfills, or the contents of the generator if a release were to occur.
	•		The release of approximately one-gallon of PCB oil from a former transformer replacement that was cleaned by the utility company is considered a historical REC.

URS observed the following Area of Concern (AOC) at the subject property during the Site reconnaissance.

•

Hazardous substances and petroleum products used in servicing HVAC equipment are stored on the property until used by contractors. No visible evidence of spills or releases were observed on the storage surface immediately surrounding the containers. However, the containers were not stored on a secondary containment device.

Based on the data presented in the EDR report, proximity, and the hydrogeologic location of the EDR listed sites relative to the subject property, the following former properties of potential RECs were identified. Although the establishments are no longer in business, the potential for these properties to have created a REC exists:

	•		Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and CT manifest databases.
	•		▇▇▇▇▇▇ Oldsmobile-Cadillac, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the SDADB, UST and CT manifest databases.
	•		Bestever Valet, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG list database. However, Bestever Cleaners is present at that location.
	•		Hilltop Texaco, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the CT manifest database.
	•		Sunoco Service Station, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and UST databases.

Based on the results of the Phase I ESA, URS recommends the following activities regarding the identified RECs and AOCs:

•

Best management practices should be used to contain potential spills that may occur in the storage area for the 5-gallon containers. The size of the containment system should be 150

1.0 INTRODUCTION

URS Corporation AES (URS) conducted a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I ESA) of the property located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Site” or “subject property”). The Phase I ESA was conducted to identify if Recognized Environmental Conditions (RECs) are present at the subject property. The Phase I ESA was conducted in general accordance with the methods and procedures described in the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) “Standard Practice for Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process” (E 1527-00 as currently amended). The Phase I ESA was conducted pursuant to, and in accordance with, URS’ October 13, 2006 Proposal HAR-148-1411. The Phase I ESA’s objectives, scope and limitations are presented in the following sections.

1.1 OBJECTIVE

The objective of URS’ Phase I ESA was to determine if RECs are present that may impact the subject property. ASTM E 1527-00 defines a REC as:

“The presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater or surface water of the property. The term includes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not intended to include de minimis conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm to public health or the environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of appropriate governmental agencies.”

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK

The Scope of Work for the Phase I ESA consisted of an inspection of the subject property and nearby area, review of readily available regulatory information concerning the subject property and other nearby properties of environmental concern, interviews with persons familiar with the history of the subject property, and preparation of a report detailing URS’ results and conclusions. This assessment was prepared in general conformance with the methods and procedures described in ASTM Standard E 1527-00. Curricula vitae for URS personnel involved in the preparation of this report are presented in Appendix A.

1.3 LIMITING CONDITIONS

URS’ Site inspection included a walking inspection of the site and surrounding and adjacent properties, including those properties identified in the environmental database search. No conditions were encountered during the performance of the Phase I ESA that might limit URS’ ability to complete the scope of work.

1.4 LIMITATIONS OF THE ASSESSMENT

The Phase I ESA was prepared in general accordance with the methods and procedures described in the ASTM “Standard Practice for Site Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process” (E 1527-00 as currently amended). The work conducted by URS is limited to the services agreed to with Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ of UST Inc., and no other services beyond those explicitly stated should be inferred or are implied.

URS’ Phase I ESA is limited to: visual observations of Site conditions on the day inspected; review of readily available and relevant data; and, statements made and information provided by the client, his agents, outside parties, and regulatory agencies. URS has exercised due and customary care in the conduct of its assessment, but in cases where it was not reasonably ascertainable, information provided by others was not independently verified. The Phase I ESA is a limited and non-exhaustive

URS Corporation AES		2		October 20, 2006

survey that is intended to evaluate whether readily available information indicates that the historic or current use of the subject property resulted in contamination by hazardous substances or waste. As a result, without a comprehensive sampling and analysis program or implementation of services beyond the original scope of work, certain conditions, including, but not limited to those summarized below, may not be revealed:

	•		Naturally occurring toxic substances or elements found in the subsurface soils, rocks, or water;
	•		Toxic substances commonly found in current habitable environments, such as stored household products, building materials, and consumables;
	•		Biological or infectious agents and pathogens;
	•		Contaminant plumes (liquid or gaseous) below the surface from a remote or unknown source;
	•		Contaminants or conditions that do not violate current regulatory standards, but may violate such standards in the future; and,
	•		Unknown, unreported, and not readily visible site contamination.

This report has been prepared for UST Inc. and it should be emphasized that conditions at the subject property can change over time. The use of this report by third parties shall be at their own risk. This report is intended to be used in its entirety, and no excerpts may be taken to be representative of the findings of this assessment.

2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

Information concerning the subject property was obtained from an interview with Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, of UST Inc., and a site inspection conducted by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of URS on October 17, 2006. Additional information was obtained from a review of the documents referenced in this report.

2.1 PHYSICAL LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

According to the Assessor’s card, the subject property is located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in a mixed use area of the Town of Greenwich, Connecticut. The Site is bordered to the west and southwest by Field Point Road; to the north and northwest by West ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Avenue; to the east by Benedict Place and further east by a residential building. The Site is 2.743-acres in size and improved with an approximately 270,000 square-feet, four multi-story buildings used to house the offices of UST Inc. According to information collected during the Site reconnaissance, the main building was constructed in 1970 and with the expansion in 1980 the building consists of approximately 260,500 square feet. A Site Location Map and Site Layout Map of the subject property are presented as Figures 1 and 2, respectively.

2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING

Environmental characteristics including topography, geology and hydrogeology were evaluated based on Site observations, published literature and maps.

2.2.1 Topography

According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Glenville, Connecticut, 7.5-minute series quadrangle map (1960, Photo revised 1971), the subject property is located at an approximate elevation of 125 feet above mean sea level. The Site is relatively flat with a downward topographical

gradient southwest towards Field Point Road. The general topography of the surrounding properties slopes in the same direction.

2.2.2 Geology/Hydrogeology

According to the Surficial Materials Map of Connecticut (Stone, et al., 1992), surficial materials at the subject property consist of thin till. Areas of thin till are areas where till is generally less than 10 to 15 feet thick and include areas of bedrock outcrop where till is absent. The surficial materials consist of predominantly upper till; are loose to moderately compacted; generally ▇▇▇▇▇, and are commonly stony. Two facies are present in some places; a looser, coarse-grained ablation facies, melted out from supraglacial position; and a more compact finer-grained lodgement facies deposited subglacially. In general, both facies of upper till derived from the red Mesozoic sedimentary rocks of the central lowland of Connecticut are finer-grained, more compact, less stony and have fewer surface boulders than upper till derived from crystalline rocks of the eastern and western highlands. According to the Bedrock Geologic Map of Connecticut (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 1985), bedrock beneath the unconsolidated sediments is the Golden Hill Schist. The bedrock is described as ▇▇▇▇ to silvery, medium- to coarse-grained schist and granofels.

According to the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CT DEP) Environmental GIS DATA for Connecticut, 2005 Edition, groundwater at the subject property is classified as GA. Groundwater classified as GA groundwater is presumed to be, at a minimum, suitable for drinking or other domestic uses without treatment.

Based on observations of the general topography of the Site and surrounding properties, shallow groundwater flow at the Site likely flows north to southwest toward Horseneck Brook

2.2.3 Soils

According to the Soil Survey of Fairfield County, soils at the subject property are classified as Urban land. This map unit consists of land where more than 85 percent of the surface is covered by

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment				▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇
URS Corporation AES		5		October 20, 2006

streets, parking lots, buildings, and other structures. The areas are mostly in densely populated regions of the county, and they are mostly 5 to 30 acres.

Most of the original soils underlaying Urban land have been altered by excavating or have been covered with fill material. Included with this map unit in mapping are small, intermingled areas of Urorthents. Included areas make up to 10 percent of this map unit. This unit requires on-site investigation and evaluation of most uses.

2.2.4 Surface Water

According to the USGS topographic map, the nearest surface water body is Horseneck Brook located approximately 1,200 feet to the west of the Site. According to the CT DEP Environmental GIS DATA for Connecticut, 2005 Edition, the surface water quality of Horseneck Brook is Class B/A. Class B surface water is designated for habitat for fish and other aquatic life and wildlife; recreation; navigation; and industrial and agricultural water supply. In this case, the surface water has a goal of Class A. Reaching this goal would designate the surface waters as existing or proposed drinking water supplies; habitat for fish and other aquatic life and wildlife; recreation; navigation; and industrial and agricultural water supply.

2.2.5 Wetland Area

No wetlands were observed on the subject property.

3.0 SITE INSPECTION

▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ of URS conducted an inspection of the subject property on October 17, 2006. Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, of UST Inc., accompanied URS during the inspection. URS’ inspection included a walking inspection of the interior and exterior portions of the Site. Photographs of the subject property were not taken due to a malfunction of the digital camera. The subject property was revisited on October 19, 2006 and photographs of the property were taken. A photographic log is included in Appendix B.

3.1 CURRENT USES OF THE PROPERTY

Currently, the Site is improved with multi-story buildings with approximately 270,000 square-foot office space occupied by UST Inc. The remainder of the Site is covered with asphalt paved parking areas, landscaping and manicured lawn.

3.2 EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR SITE OBSERVATIONS

The subject property is currently developed with an approximately 260,500 square-foot four-story commercial building originally constructed in 1970 that was expanded in 1980. Two additional structures are located on the property; a small museum near the entrance to the property used as office space (2,700 square-feet) and a residential/commercial building (17 Field Point Road - (6,600 square-feet).

The four-story building is constructed with a parking garage on the first floor with concrete, glass and fiberglass exterior walls. The 1970 building has a flat girder roof covered with rubber roofing material while the 1980 building is covered with recently installed asphaltic rolled roofing material. The interior of the building has been divided into administrative offices. The office areas are mixed carpet and tile with drop ceilings. The remainder of the subject property is covered with asphalt parking areas, landscaping and manicured lawn. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning is managed with rooftop units and natural gas-fired boilers.

URS Corporation AES		7		October 20, 2006

3.2.1 Hazardous Substances and Oil

URS observed small amounts of hazardous substances stored on the property. These substances consisted of two 5-gallon containers of dichlorotrifluoroethene, three 5-gallon containers of glycol and two large and two small cylinders of halon. Stored substances are taken off-site by contractors who service equipment in the buildings. Batteries and ballasts used on-site are stored outside the office building on the loading dock in the garage area. The universal wastes are removed and recycled by WERecycle.

3.2.2 Hazardous and Special Regulated Waste Generation

No hazardous or special regulated waste is generated at the Site. The Site was not identified as a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) generator of hazardous wastes in the Environmental Data Resources (EDR) report.

3.2.3 Underground/Aboveground Storage Tanks

URS did not observe underground or above ground storage tanks (USTs or ASTs) or evidence of USTs or ASTs during the Site visit. According to the Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ the property is serviced by natural gas and electric.

3.2.4 Drums and Containers

URS observed two 5-gallon containers of dichlorotrifluoroethene, three 5-gallon containers of glycol and two large and two small cylinders of halon. No evidence of spills or releases on the surface around the containers was observed.

URS Corporation AES		8		October 20, 2006

3.2.5 Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB)-Containing Equipment

No PCB-containing equipment was observed on the Site. Electrical power is supplied to the Site by underground utilities. URS did not observe any transformers at the Site. Given the date of construction (1970) it is possible fluorescent light ballasts used during the original construction, if still present, may contain PCBs.

During the replacement of a 200 parts per million (ppm) PCB transformer on February 23, 1995, an estimated amount of one gallon of oil was spilled onto the floor of the concrete subgrade vault. This area was triple washed by the utility company. Reportedly, the replacement transformers do not contain PCB oil.

3.2.6 Solid Waste Generation

Solid waste generated at the Site is typical for the Site activity. There are two trash dumpsters located at the Site which are located in the northwestern corner of the Site. One is used for general trash while the other is used for cardboard only.

3.2.7 Air Emission Sources

URS did not observe any air emission sources at the subject property.

3.2.8 Drains and Sumps

Except for the floor drain in the kitchen, URS did not observe any floor drains at the Site. A sump pump located in Level D in Building 2 parking garage collects stormwater and discharges to Town storm drains.

Storm drains were observed in the paved driveway and parking area on the west and south sides of the site building. The storm drain flows to the municipal storm sewer.

3.2.9 Sanitary and Industrial Wastewater Discharges

According to ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, the Site and surrounding properties are connected to municipal sewer. Sanitary wastewater discharged from the Site flows to the sanitary sewer.

3.2.10 ▇▇▇▇▇

No ▇▇▇▇▇ were observed at the subject property during the site reconnaissance. ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ had no knowledge of any ▇▇▇▇▇ located on the Site.

3.2.11 Asbestos Containing Materials

URS did not observe any suspect asbestos containing materials (ACMs) during the Site visit. An asbestos survey was conducted around 1996. The roof on Building 2 was replaced in 2006. There is no asbestos-containing material (ACM) in Building 2. Reportedly, most ACM has been removed from Building 1.

3.2.12 Pits, Ponds and Lagoons

No pits ponds or lagoons were observed on the Site.

4.0 ADJOINING AND SURROUNDING LAND USE

URS performed a visual inspection of readily visible areas of adjacent properties. The following description of the current uses of adjoining properties and surrounding properties of potential environmental concern is based on URS’ observations on the date of the inspection.

4.1 CURRENT USES OF ADJOINING PROPERTIES

The subject property is located in an area consisting primarily of residential/commercial use properties. The adjoining property to the northeast is developed as an office and shopping mall. The property is bound to the east by Benedict Place. Across West ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Avenue to the west is the Greenwich Library. The adjoining properties to the south are residential/commercial.

4.2 SURROUNDING PROPERTIES OF POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN

Based on the Site inspection, surrounding former properties present an REC to the subject property. Although the establishments are no longer in business, the potential for these properties to have created a REC exists:

	•		Hilltop Texaco, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, is identified in the CT Manifest database. According to the database, United Industrial Service doing business as Advanced Liquid Recovery transported waste on October 5, 1992 under manifest CT F006 7350. The nature and quantity of the waste was not listed in the EDR report.
	•		▇▇▇▇▇▇ Oldsmobile — Cadillac, Inc. is identified in the UST, CT property and SDADB databases. According to the UST database, a 500-gallon UST was previously used for gasoline and has been permanently closed and removed from the site. The UST was installed in January 1971 and last used in October 1993. A second 500-gallon UST, installed in January 1993, has been permanently closed and removed from the site. Two 550-gallon

			USTs were previously used for diesel and have been permanently closed and removed from the site. The USTs were installed in January 1958 and removed in January 1980 and January 1984. A 2,000-gallon UST was previously used for gasoline and has been permanently closed and removed from the site. The UST was installed in January 1980 and last used in October 1993.
			Four USTs are still in service on the property: two 550-gallon USTs (listed for other contents) were installed in January 1958; one 550-gallon UST, used for used oil, was installed in January 1958; and one 2,000-gallon UST, used for gasoline was installed in January 1980. All of these USTs are steel and are beyond their recommended life span (15 years).
	•		Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc is identified in the RCRA-SQG, FINDS, CT Manifest and NY manifest databases. According to the CT manifest and NY manifest databases, non-listed ignitable wastes (D001) and glass were disposed on June 18, 1993. Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc. is listed as a small quantity generator of hazardous waste.

However, in accordance to the Policy On Up Gradient Contamination, dated August 28, 1998, it is the policy of the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection that a down gradient property owner is not responsible for remediating groundwater contamination flowing onto his or her property from another site, as long as the contamination is present solely as a result of the off-site source(s).

6.0 REGULATORY AGENCY REVIEW

6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL DATABASES REVIEW

URS reviewed information gathered from several environmental databases by EDR to evaluate whether activities on, or near, the subject property have the potential to create a REC on the subject property. EDR reviews databases compiled by federal, state, and local governmental agencies. The complete list of databases reviewed by EDR is provided in EDR’s report dated October 13, 2006 and is included as Appendix H. It should be noted that this information is reported as URS received it from EDR, which in turn reports information as it is provided in various government databases. It is not possible for either URS or EDR to verify the accuracy or completeness of information contained in these databases. However, the use of and reliance on this information is a generally accepted practice in the conduct of environmental due diligence.

The databases searched and the information obtained is summarized in the table below:

approximately one gallon of oil from a PCB-transformer. The Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CT DEP) was notified for a variance, but none was reportedly necessary.

The following former adjacent and immediately surrounding properties were identified in the EDR report. Although the establishments are no longer in business, the potential for these properties to have created a REC exists:

	•		Hilltop Texaco, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, is identified in the CT Manifest database. According to the database, United Industrial Service doing business as Advanced Liquid Recovery transported waste on October 5, 1992 under manifest CT F006 7350. The nature and quantity of the waste was not listed in the EDR report.
	•		▇▇▇▇▇▇ Oldsmobile — Cadillac, Inc. is identified in the UST, CT property and SDADB databases. According to the UST database, a 500-gallon UST was previously used for gasoline and has been permanently closed and removed from the site. The UST was installed in January 1971 and last used in October 1993. A second 500-gallon UST, installed in January 1993, has been permanently closed and removed from the site. Two 550-gallon USTs were previously used for diesel and have been permanently closed and removed from the site. The USTs were installed in January 1958 and removed in January 1980 and January 1984. A 2,000-gallon UST was previously used for gasoline and has been permanently closed and removed from the site. The UST was installed in January 1980 and last used in October 1993.
			Four USTs are still in service on the property: two 550-gallon USTs (listed for other contents) were installed in January 1958; one 550-gallon UST, used for used oil, was installed in January 1958; and one 2,000-gallon UST, used for gasoline was installed in January 1980. All of these USTs are steel and are beyond their recommended life span (15 years).
	•		Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc is identified in the RCRA-SQG, FINDS, CT Manifest and NY manifest

databases. According to the CT manifest and NY manifest databases, non-listed ignitable wastes (D001) and glass were disposed on June 18, 1993. Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc. is listed as a small quantity generator of hazardous waste.

Based on the data presented in the EDR report, proximity, and the hydrogeologic location of the EDR listed sites relative to the subject property, the following former properties of potential environmental concern were identified. . Although the establishments are no longer in business, the potential for these properties to have created a REC exists:

	•		Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and CT manifest databases.
	•		▇▇▇▇▇▇ Oldsmobile-Cadillac, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the SDADB, UST and CT manifest databases.
	•		Bestever Valet, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG list database. However, Bestever Cleaners is present at that location.
	•		Hilltop Texaco, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the CT manifest database.
	•		Sunoco Service Station, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and UST databases.

Although the above sites have the potential to have created a REC on the subject property, in accordance with the CT DEP Policy on Upgradient Contamination, a downgradient property owner is not responsible for remediating groundwater contamination flowing onto his or her property from another site, as long as the contamination is present solely as a result of the off-site source(s).

6.2 REGULATORY AGENCY CONTACT

During the performance of an environmental assessment, federal, state and local regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the subject property are contacted to determine the following information: the status of relevant environmental permits; whether there have been any violations, or other similar correspondence from such agencies; whether any corrective action or remediation is planned, currently taking place, or has been completed at the subject property; whether there have been any reported violations or complaints that the subject property is not in compliance with environmental laws, regulations, or standards, and whether the subject property is under investigation for such non-compliance; whether the subject property is listed on any of the regulatory databases; and whether there is any other pertinent documentation on file with such regulatory agencies regarding the subject property or surrounding sites of concern. Regulatory agencies contacted and a summary of the information obtained from these agencies is included in the following sections.

On October 17, 2006, URS contacted the Town of Greenwich Tax Assessor’s office, Building Department, Fire ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Engineering Department and Clerk’s office to obtain information pertaining to the subject property. Copies of these documents are included in Appendix C.

According to the Assessor’s records, the subject property is 2.743-acres. The Assessor’s records indicate the subject property is owned by UST Inc. Personnel at the Engineers office stated that the Site and all surrounding properties are currently serviced with public water and municipal sewer and have been since buildings were constructed in this area. The Building Department had no records relating to the environmental quality of the Site. The Fire Marshal’s office was contacted and a request for information has been submitted. The response from the Greenwich Fire Department stated that the files show nothing on record for USTs, ASTs or spills for the subject property. UST Inc. took ownership of the site in 1970. Prior to that time the property was developed with residential dwellings. No other relevant information was obtained by this records review.

7.0 CONCLUSIONS

URS has performed a Phase I ESA in conformance with the scope and limitations of the USEPA 30 Part 12 Standards and Practices for All Appropriate Inquiries and ASTM Practice E 1527-00 of the 2.743-acre parcel located at identified ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. URS’ conclusions and recommendations are presented below.

7.1 ON-SITE RECOGNIZED ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

URS identified the following RECs at the subject property during the site reconnaissance.

	•		A small area of staining caused by a leaking gasket from a natural gas garage generator. The garage generator was not located within an area capable of containing spills or overfills, or the contents of the generator if a release were to occur.
	•		The release of approximately one-gallon of PCB oil from a former transformer that was cleaned by the utility company is considered a historical REC.

The following Areas of Concern (AOC) was observed during the site reconnaissance.

•

Hazardous substances and petroleum products used in servicing HVAC equipment are stored on the property until used by contractors who service equipment. No visible evidence of spills or releases was observed on the storage surface immediately surrounding the containers. However, the containers were not stored on a secondary containment device.

Based on the results of the Phase I ESA, URS recommends the following activities regarding the identified RECs and AOC:

URS Corporation AES		23		October 20, 2006

	•		Best management practices should be used to contain potential spills that may occur in the storage area for the 5-gallon containers. The size of the containment system should be 150 percent of the amount of the stored material.
	•		The garage generator should be equipped with a drip pan capable of containing the contents of the lubrication system in the event of a release.

7.2 OFF-SITE RECOGNIZED ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

URS identified the following former off-Site properties with the potential to create a REC at the subject property. The RECs are discussed in greater detail above in the report.

	•		Greenwich Cadillac Olds, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and CT manifest databases.
	•		▇▇▇▇▇▇ Oldsmobile-Cadillac, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the SDADB, UST and CT manifest databases.
	•		Bestever Valet, Inc., located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG list database.
	•		Hilltop Texaco, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the CT manifest database.
	•		Sunoco Service Station, located at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, was identified in the RCRA-SQG and UST databases.

Although the above sites have the potential to have created a REC on the subject property, in accordance with the CT DEP Policy on Upgradient Contamination, a downgradient property owner is not responsible for remediating groundwater contamination flowing onto his or her property from
