Risk Evaluation of Change in Property Use

SRS staff also prepared a property-specific risk assessment report for a former dry cleaner facility under the Ohio VAP.  The risk assessment originally evaluated the site under a commercial scenario when the former dry cleaner was a vacant space.  However, during the course of the project, the vacant former dry cleaner was converted into a child day-care facility.  The change in use of the property required a re-evaluation of the use of the facility (i.e. residential use) and a re-evaluation of potential receptors (e.g. children, parents, day care workers, etc.) that may be exposed to chlorinated vapors beneath the building.
