Above photo shows a raised suspect gas island at the front of the parcel. A search of GA EPD’s UST Management Program records does not return any information that the parcel contains underground storage tanks (USTs). However, ground penetrating radar (GPR) indicated two potential locations near the raised suspect gas island where USTs may be present and suggests that these areas be included in a search involving the tracking of any product supply lines found upon demolition and removal of the raised suspect gas island and/or direct probes of the “A” and “B” identified areas.
