I I I I I sold to NCR Comten. The building was used as a training center for NCR Comten employees but has recently housed their repair unit. The rooms and hallways contained rows of shelving and stacks of boxes on pallets filled with computer parts, papers and packing material. Some repairing of computer equipment was done on site with little use of solder or other possible hazardous material. All rooms and hallways were carpeted except for the old gymnasium which was tiled. The carpeting was installed over the original tile. A fill and vent pipe for an underground storage tank (UST) were identified north of the building across the service road. The size of the UST is unknown and is assumed to have been installed when the school was built in 1962. Mechanical Plans were unavailable from NCR Comten at the time of inspection. Visual and olfactory inspection suggests that there is fuel oil currently in the tank. I I I I 1 I I I I I , The Buildings Superintendent for NCR Comten, (Reference 7) also informed Northern Environmental of a well on the property, located west of the north end of the building. Records available from the Minnesota Geological Survey (Attachment 3) indicated that the well is 506 feet deep, was installed in 1962, and is completed in the prairie du Chien-Jordan aquifer. At the request of Northern Environmental, Mr. Mark Sonaglia of Bay West Inc. performed a walkthrough asbestos inspection of the building.
