Most buildings and tenants are highly prepared to welcome employees back to the office, having developed plans and outfitted their buildings to ensure safety, comfort and well-being while accommodating the growing demand for remote work opportunities that provide the flexibility to recruit and retain talent. At the same time, large numbers of employees lack access to stable high-speed internet

Construction Spending Stalls from July to August Total construction spending was flat between July and August, as a decrease in nonresidential projects offset continuing gains in residential construction, according to a new analysis of federal construction spending data the Associated General Contractors of America released today. Officials urged the House of Representatives to promptly approve the bipartisan infrastructure bill that passed in the Senate earlier this year, noting that spending on infrastructure in the first eight months of 2021 declined from year-earlier levels. “Nearly every nonresidential spending segment has deteriorated from already inadequate 2020 levels in the first two-thirds of this year,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “Meanwhile, soaring materials costs mean that fixed public budgets buy even less infrastructure than before.” Construction spending in August totaled $1.58 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate, virtually unchanged from July. Year-to-date spending increased 7.0 percent from the total for January-August 2020. Gains were limited to residential construction, while nonresidential construction spending slipped in August and year-to-date. The residential construction segment climbed 0.4 percent for the month and 26 percent year-to-date. Combined private and public nonresidential construction spending dropped 0.4 percent compared to July and 6.7 percent over the first eight months of 2021 compared to same interval in 2020. Most infrastructure categories posted significant year-to-date declines, Simonson pointed out. The largest public infrastructure segment, highway and street construction, was 3.4 percent lower than in January-August 2020. Spending on public transportation construction slumped 6.5 percent year-to-date. Investment in sewage and waste disposal structures climbed 3.8 percent, while funding for public water supply projects slid 1.8 percent and conservation and development construction plunged 18 percent. Other types of nonresidential spending also decreased year-to-date, Simonson added. Combined private and public spending on electric power and oil and gas projects declined 3.6 percent. Education construction slumped 10.6 percent. Commercial construction--comprising warehouse, retail, and farm structures--dipped 1.7 percent. Office spending fell 10.1 percent and manufacturing construction edged down 0.8 percent. Staff report

More Than 80% of Seniors Do Not Intend to Sell Their Home

For older Americans, a home signifies much more than just a place to live. New data from American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s leader in home equity solutions, shows that seniors’ homes not only have a great deal of monetary worth, but also significant sentimental value. To gain a deeper understanding of exactly how meaningful home is to America’s seniors, AAG conducted the Importance of Home Survey with over 1,500 participants ages 60-75. “Our studies have shown that seniors in this country have a strong attachment to their home and the pandemic only strengthened that bond,” said AAG Chief Marketing Officer Martin Lenoir. “It’s no secret that many seniors have built substantial equity in their homes after years of ownership, but what is interesting is that very few want to sell their house to obtain that money. For seniors, the comfort, safety and independence of their home outweighs the desire to move and that’s why we’re seeing so many older Americans interested in reverse mortgages.” The Data Shows that Seniors Plan to Stay Put: The majority of America’s seniors do not intend to sell their home and have no plans of ever moving. 82% of seniors say they want to live in their home for the rest of their lives. Seniors indicated that they want to remain in the comfort of their own home. 92% of seniors said they would prefer to live their later years in their current home instead of moving to an assisted living facility. The desire to live in one’s home ties closely to a feeling of safety. More than four in five seniors (83%) say they feel safer at home than anywhere else. The COVID-19 pandemic strengthened how seniors feel about living at home. Half of America’s seniors (50%) say that the pandemic made their desire to live at home stronger. America’s seniors see value in their homes that goes beyond finances. Nearly two in three (62%) seniors say they have an emotional attachment to their home. For many of America’s seniors owning a home signifies more than just having ownership of a property. More than one-third (40%) of older Americans said their “Independence” is the most important benefit of living in their home. Family life is another substantial reason that seniors have an emotional attachment to their home. Over half of seniors (56%) say their home reminds them of their family. Seniors are communicating their desire to stay at home with their children and close relatives. More than two in three seniors (68%) have told their families where they would like to live for the rest of their life. Staff report

Pandemic-Era Job-Changers Burned Out, Felt Under-Valued Limeade has released findings from the company’s study, “The Great Resignation Update.” In the latest addition to the Limeade employee care research series, Limeade identified the drivers that led to the mass exodus of employees in late 2020 and early 2021 and how companies can improve their efforts to retain top talent through care. Many employees stayed in their roles throughout 2020 even if they weren’t satisfied — as underscored by the 6 million fewer resignations in 2020 than in 2019. In contrast, 19 million workers quit their jobs between March

2021 and July 2021 (a surplus of 7 million compared to the same time last year). “The Great Resignation Update,” surveyed 1,000 full-time U.S. workers who started a new job in 2021. These employees work at companies with 500 or more employees and have been at their new organization for at least three months. Respondents cited burnout, lack of flexibility and not feeling valued as top resignation drivers — indicating a lack of care and a desire for greater well-being. Key findings include: Departing out of desperation: 28% of employees left their jobs without another job lined up, these respondents were also 1.7x more likely to cite burnout as their reason for resigning Burnout driving resignations: The top reasons for employee departure include burnout (40%), organizational changes at the company (34%) as well as lack of flexibility, instances or discrimination, and contributions and ideas not being valued (all tied at 20%) Employees prioritizing benefits and well-being: Additionally, 19% of employees left due to insufficient benefits and 16% left because their well-being was not supported by the company When searching for greener pastures, respondents cited ability to work remotely, better compensation and more employee care as top criteria for new roles. Flexibility is key: Job-changers were attracted to their new position due to the ability to work remotely (40%), better compensation (37%), and better management (31%) Compensation: 29% of job changers — the largest single category of respondents — received a 10-19% salary increase. 13% took a pay cut for their new position and 23% indicated they are paid the same amount, indicating better compensation isn’t an absolute requirement for job changers Better employee care: Respondents reported a 22% boost in feeling cared for as a person by their new employer What’s the same: Only 9% of total respondents saw a decrease in the number of hours they’re currently working, indicating the number of hours an employee works isn’t necessarily a determining factor for burnout “The mass exodus workplaces have experienced over the past several months is unprecedented — burnout levels reached an all-time high. There was a societal breakdown when it came to the ecosystem of work, home and well-being. People reached their limits,” said Dr. Laura Hamill, Limeade Chief Science Advisor. “At Limeade, our mission is to improve well-being in the world. Because of this we knew it was important to examine this event and ask the Great Resignation job-changers what happened, what they experienced and how employers can do better.” The Limeade Institute recognizes “care” as looking after and providing for the needs of someone or something. To better support employees — particularly in times of crisis or heightened mental health pressures — it is vital for employers to bring employee feedback into the fold. When employers utilize anonymized pulse surveys, organizations can gather employee feedback, transparently share findings and take action. By asking employees for their input, employers can create more intentional employee experiences that are centered around care — and better empower employees to prioritize their overall well-being. “We have to do better. We have to take care of ourselves and others — and that means caring more for employees. Listen to employees. Ask them what they need,” said Hamill. “Do they need more flexibility? More autonomy? More trust? The Great Resignation is a great opportunity for employers to evolve, learn and do better. The companies that learn and grow from this feedback will succeed.” Staff report

Redfin Reports Asking Prices Up 12% to All-Time High Asking prices of homes listed for sale increased to an all-time high of 12%, according to a new report from Redfin (redfin.com). Pending sales were up just 4%, the smallest yearover-year increase since June 2020. Other housing market measures continued to show a typical seasonal cooling, with fewer than half of homes selling above list price and new listings of homes for sale down 20% from their 2021 peak. “Home sellers continue to show their optimism with increasing asking prices,” said Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather. “However, there are already signals from the Fed and markets that mortgage rates are starting to creep up. The hit to affordability that comes with higher rates and higher home prices could let some steam out of the market It’s never a good idea to overprice your home, but I would be especially wary of overpricing as seasonal cooling trends persist and rising rates take some affordability out of the homebuying equation.” Key housing market takeaways for 400+ U.S.metro areas: Unless otherwise noted, this data covers the four-week period ending September 26. Redfin’s housing market data goes back through 2012. The median home-sale price increased 13% year over year to $356,358. This was up 0.2% from the four-week period ending September 19. Asking prices of newly listed homes were up 12% from the same time a year ago to a median of $361,250, an alltime high. Asking prices have been on the rise throughout the month of September, in a typical late-summer seasonal uptick. New listings of homes for sale were down 8% from a year earlier. New listings have been below 2020 levels since the four-week period ending August 22. Active listings (the number of homes listed for sale at any point during the period) fell 22% from 2020. 46% of homes that went under contract had an accepted offer within the first two weeks on the market, above the 43% rate of a year earlier. 33% of homes that went under contract had an accepted offer within one week of hitting the market, up from 31% during the same period a year earlier. Homes that sold were on the market for a median of 20 days, nearly a week longer than the all-time low of 15 days seen in late June and July, and down from 32 days a year earlier. 48% of homes sold above list price, up from 34% a year earlier. On average, 5% of homes for sale each week had a price drop, up 1.4 percentage points from the same time in 2020, and the highest level since the four-week period ending October 13, 2019. The average sale-to-list price ratio, which measures how close homes are selling to their asking prices, decreased to 101%. In other words, the average home sold for 1% above its asking price. Other leading indicators of homebuying activity: Mortgage purchase applications decreased 1% week over week (seasonally adjusted) during the week ending September 24. For the week ending September 23, 30-year mortgage rates were up slightly at 2.88%. From January 1 to September 26, home tours were up 7%, compared to a 29% increase over the same period last year, according to home tour technology company ShowingTime. Staff report

Smooth or Rocky Career Changes: Your Choice Some think career changes are made based on burnout and emotional decisions, like a librarian quitting and turning into a home renovator for the excitement, or a construction worker becoming a furniture designer to express his creativity, or a home chef becoming an information technology specialist for the money. Contrary to emotion-based career ideas, the best path to choosing a new career is reached through planning. Douglas Boyd, with a Ph.D. in biological sciences, decided to transfer after 27 years at a well-known Houston cancer research center in a university setting to a field not commonly associated with academia -- aviation. To ensure his career change would be successful, he planned extensively every step of the way. Boyd said, “I would not have switched careers to one where I had no prior knowledge or experience.” A British subject as a student, Boyd received his series of university degrees up to a Ph.D. in biological sciences, focusing on steroid endocrinology at the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom. To begin his chosen career in academia, he moved across an ocean to reside in Houston, Texas, and began as a researcher for the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. He became accomplished in this field and continued his career for 27 years under seven-year renewable contracts. In his final seven-year contract, he gradually realized his lack of enthusiasm for the discipline despite National

Boyd developed his idea for his fear-of-flying business in the first year of his last contract. He then used the last two to three years of his final seven-year contract to set up for his new life, all on a part-time basis. He didn’t have to quit his job; he was engaged in cancer research to the end of his contract, and by that time he was financially independent and prepared to move into his own business full time.

Institute of Health funding and some 89 publications in peer-reviewed journals such as Cancer Research. “I had loved aviation since childhood, but I didn’t start part-time studying and pilot training until my mid-tolate 30s.” As a part-time student pilot, Boyd’s courses and training occurred on weekends and did not interfere with his work obligations, other than to take off one week to pass his certifications for flying jets and multi-engine airplanes. He found learning about the new field and turning knowledge into flying experience exhilarating. Flying in and out of a major airport with restricted visibility

was beyond an exciting challenge, and this renewed his childhood passion. He earned five different sets of flying certifications although “(he) could fly with the lowest certification.” On the business side, “I got a eureka moment in attending an Aerospace Medical Association conference where ‘fear of flying’ was being discussed. This inspired me to think of establishing this sector as a business in Houston after finding the nearest comparable program to be in Phoenix.” Boyd holds two to three workshops a year and several one-on-ones for clients of his Fear of Flying business who experience anxiety.

He also used his research training in academia to publish his first aviation-related article in 2011 on cancer in pilots, transitioning his research focus to the causes of general aviation accidents. Once he left the cancer center in 2017, he gained a noncompensated appointment with a global aeronautical university, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, to continue this academic pursuit. Boyd developed his idea for his fearof-flying business in the first year of his last contract. He then used the last two to three years of his final seven-year contract to set up for his new life, all on a part-time basis. He didn’t have to quit his job; he was engaged in cancer research to the end of his contract, and by that time he was financially independent and prepared to move into his own business full time. This was a smooth career transition of the sort everyone wishes for (when the steps are well planned, there are few if no missteps to threaten success). For those seeking to move into new careers in unknown fields, seek a business coach to ensure the planning is logical and more than a pipe dream. Moving into the unknown can be done but connecting the dots of previous knowledge and experience will ease the pain of the rocks and blocks that may lie ahead.

Disappearing shorts: As stocks soar, skeptics surrender BY STAN CHOE AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK (AP) — The skeptics on Wall Street have gone missing. As the stock market has surged to records — unbowed by recession, pandemic or warnings of a dangerous bubble — activity has dwindled to a nearly two-decade low for the traders known as short sellers, who make their money betting stocks will fall. This saddens nearly no one. From smallfry investors to members of Congress, critics paint short sellers as merchants of pain. People around the world celebrated early this year when GameStop’s stock suddenly hurtled higher, causing billions of dollars in losses for short sellers. Many called it a long-due comeuppance. But academics and short sellers themselves say they provide an important service suited for just this moment: pushing back against stock prices that may be rising too high, too fast. Despite concerns about the pace of the economic recovery and high inflation, the S&P 500 has set 65 all-time highs so far this year, with the latest coming on Monday. Some critics say stocks look overly expensive, with some broad measures of value close to historical highs. Fewer short sellers in the market means there’s

WORK FROM PAGE 1 where people work. It also placed a new lens on the health, safety, wellness and productivity of employees,” said Maureen Ehrenberg, FRICS, CRE, Chief Executive Officer of Blue Skyre. “The workplace seems to be well-prepared for a re-occupancy, which is healthier and occupant-friendly with more wellness and concierge services. With the challenges of reliable high-speed internet serving employees at home, it’s arguable as well that the workplace at times may be more productive, especially when meeting and collaborating through video conferencing is a critical component of remaining visible and engaged with clients and team members.” Kimmel added, “The hybrid workplace clearly has arrived and will not go away. The next step is to conduct additional research on how to make the hybrid work arrangement most successful. I expect that to do this, there will be studies on the types of work and workers best suited for office and remote work locations, and what can be done to enhance productivity for each.” According to the survey, 68% of companies have created a return to occupancy task force and nearly all crosscut many corporate functions, including property and space management, human resources and IT. Additionally, a large majority of building managers have or are preparing a documented return to office plan (84%) and are confident in the plan (90%). They also are preparing for potential COVID surges; 60% already have a documented contingency plan and 30% are preparing one. “This insightful survey clearly demonstrates the justified importance placed on

less selling pressure tugging downward on those prices. It can also mean fewer investors looking for overvalued stocks or ferreting out fraud. “This is the thing that short sellers do, they lean against the wind,” said Charles Jones, a finance professor at Columbia University’s business school, who has researched short selling. “If you have short sellers who are not afraid to do that, you will not get prices that are too high or too low, which is what I think we want when we are allocating capital.” Jones’ research of Wall Street in the late 1920s and early 1930s, for example, looked at a group of stocks that were particularly expensive to short, which discouraged short sellers from targeting them. They went on to have returns that were 1% to 2% lower per month than other stocks of similar size, suggesting that they had been overvalued. When investors short a stock, they borrow the shares from someone else and sell them. Later, if the stock falls as the short seller expects, they can buy the shares, return them to the lender and pocket the difference in price. So it’s no surprise that short sellers regularly get blamed for driving stock prices artificially low. During the 2008 financial crisis, a few days after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, U.S. regula-

tors temporarily banned the shorting of financial stocks, fearing short sellers would undermine already weak trust in them and trigger a run on the system. Nearly four years later, though, a study by a New York Fed economist and professors at Notre Dame suggested the ban did little to slow the decline in bank stocks, which fell anyway. The restrictions also gummed up trading for bank stocks, raising trading costs in the stock and options markets by more than an estimated $1 billion. Shorting activity has been trending down since July 2008, a few months before that temporary ban. Then, it was nearly twice the force it is now, accounting for 2.61% of all the shares in S&P 500 companies. Just 1.35% of all the shares in S&P 500 companies were sold short in August, according to data compiled by FactSet. The stock market’s mostly relentless rise since 2009 has prompted investors to pull dollars out of short-selling funds, helping to thin the ranks of the contrarians. Why go short when everything is rising? “You have to look at what is causing the market to reach all-time highs,” said Carson Block, founder of Muddy Waters Research and one of the industry’s bestknown short-sellers. “It is most definitely not that humanity is at our all-time greatest state.”

Instead, he said a big reason is the ultralow interest rates set by the Federal Reserve to resuscitate the economy. Those low rates have sent waves of cash into the stock market, and critics say they’re pushing up prices indiscriminately and allowing weak companies to hold on. Block specializes in rooting out fraud, and one of his earliest victories came with Sino-Forest, a company that was once Canada’s most valuable publicly traded forestry business. Block released a report in 2011 calling the company a “multi-billion dollar ponzi scheme” that was overstating how much it had in timber investments. Its shares quickly fell as the report reverberated, and the company pushed back on the accusations. But it ultimately collapsed in what an Ontario securities regulator called “one of the largest corporate frauds in Canadian history.” Short sellers have also been credited with helping to publicize financial practices at Enron and Tyco International, two of the biggest U.S. corporate fraud cases, in the early 2000s. Of course, short sellers also get it wrong sometimes. Tesla was a favorite target for years, with short sellers betting founder Elon Musk’s visions for the electric-vehicle company were overly grandiose. Tesla recently posted a record quarterly profit and is one of the few companies in the world worth $1 trillion.

health, well-being, safety and the workforce experience now and post pandemic, as well as the need for technology and data to thoroughly understand behavior and develop the metrics needed to effectively manage our facilities for our workforces,” said Peter Ankerstjerne, Chief Strategy Officer of Planon, a global leader in digital workplace and smart building solutions, and Chairman of the Global Board of Directors at IFMA.

Re-occupancy plans put safety first Although many factors played a role in return to occupancy planning, the safety, health and well-being of employees, occupants and visitors ranked highest with 86% of the managers responding it was leadership’s top concern. Returning the building/office space to pre-pandemic occupancy ranked lowest in terms of importance to top management at 64%. Nearly half of the companies are planning to increase the budget by more than 10% for security systems, technology and wellness amenities. In addition, 61% said they have or are planning to add health and wellness services. Nearly all respondents (94%) said their buildings either have been or are being equipped with improved HVAC air filtration systems. This was followed by additional security measures, including automated biometric and temperature scanners and desk and meeting room reservations. Two-thirds of buildings will have hand sanitation stations and frequent cleaning of high-touch areas, and 62% of those surveyed say temperature checks will be required to enter the office. “With the majority of survey respondents ranking safety, health and well-being of the people in the building as the top concern in return to the office, there is a clear opportunity for leading building professionals to also serve as health professionals. Building health impacts human health. It is important we provide the information and tools to position them to do so at their best,” said Whitney Austin Gray, Senior Vice

President and Lead of Research at the International WELL Building Institute.

Remote work is the new competitive advantage, but companies face productivity challenges When asked how companies are planning to retain talent, 58% of those surveyed say they will allow employees to choose how many days to work remotely. Other top strategies companies are choosing to retain talent include providing amenities for well-being through incentives (49%), allowing employees to work remotely from anywhere (48%), and paying for relocation expenses for key talent (46%). Companies also plan to support work from home by providing or reimbursing employees for software (70%), office equipment such as printers, computers and mobile or landline phones (69%), and well-being reimbursements (46%). Nearly half (45%) said they will offer new work from home financial subsidies for existing home expenses, such as rent or mortgage reimbursement and insurance. However, 40% of respondents estimate at least half of the employees at their facilities lack high-speed internet connectivity at home that would better facilitate remote work.

Goodbye private offices, hello smaller networked meeting spaces A majority of those surveyed (55%) say their return to office plan is to have over half of their staff spend at least three days in the office with 23% saying workers will spend 50% of their time in the office and 21% expecting most staff to work remotely most of the time. Nearly an equal amount of survey respondents foresee a reduction in the number of conference rooms for more than 10 people (54%) and private offices (53%) in the next two years. Three-quarters of respondents plan to increase the number of conference/meeting rooms with networked audio and visual capabilities, while nearly two-thirds foresee both more conference rooms for 10 or fewer people and an increase in outdoor meeting areas. Despite the changes to the workspace, more than half (54%) say their organization is not planning to change their real estate footprint by either adding or giving back square footage. “The workplace will no longer facilitate focus and learning activities – those things can happen remotely. What successful future offices will do is enable the activities for people to connect – group problem-solving, collaborative innovation and social activity. Likewise, the space types in every office will need to change to support that shift in employee experience,” said Michael Casolo, Chief Revenue Officer of Unispace. Staff report

MoneyHunt An Introductory Lesson on Convertible Debt “I have a successful growing business, to the point where a number of investors are starting to knock on my door. “My business is in a limited liability company with two classes of membership interest -- voting and nonvoting. I did this on the advice of my lawyer and my accountant, who both suggested it was useful to distinguish between the founders of the company (they, of course, get voting interests) and investors (who get nonvoting interests). “I have approached a number of investors (actually, they have approached me) and offered them nonvoting interests for a significant percentage of the company, but they are dragging their feet because they see my company as still too risky. “I really don’t want them to lend money to my company because I don’t want long-term debt on my books, but I don’t want to give up control of the company by giving them voting interests. I could just blow them off, of course, but truth be told I could really use at least some of the money they’re throwing at me to expand my business. “Is there any way I can make these investors happy and still keep control of my business?” Yes -- you should consider offering them convertible debt. A convertible note is basically an I.O.U. from a company to an investor. It operates the same way as any other debt instrument, except there’s a provision in the note giving the “holder” (that’s the investor) the right at any time to convert the note into a specified voting or nonvoting interest in your company. By giving an investor a convertible note, you are enabling them to “straddle the fence.” If your company takes off and becomes wildly successful, the investor

will convert the note into equity so she can grow along with you. If your company goes belly-up, the investor can hold onto the note so that, as a creditor, she will get their money out before others do. Here are the terms you and your advisors will need to work out: The Conversion Price. This is the ratio of the note’s principal balance to the number of shares received upon conversion -- for example, “1% of the company’s nonvoting membership interests for each $10,000 of the outstanding principal balance of the Note at the time of conversion.” You should also consider whether investors will be allowed to convert their note “in whole” (all at once), or partially in several installments over time. Timing. Most convertible notes give the investor the right to convert “at any time,” but you are free to add language saying the investor only gets the right to convert at a stated future time. Forced Conversion. The investor always has the right to convert, but you may want the right to “force” the investor to convert earlier than she might wish. A future investor desiring to put a large sum of money into your company may insist that all holders of company debt be converted into equity. Without the right to force conversion, you would be forced to renegotiate each investor’s note, and even a single “no” could force you to forego a big investment you may desperately need at that time. What the Investor Gets Upon Conversion. With a corporation, this is simple -- the investor receives shares of the corporation’s common or preferred stock. With an LLC, you have two choices. You can specify that the investor will receive a percentage of the company upon conversion -- this means that any inves-

tor who comes on board before conversion will be “diluted” (their percentage ownership of the company will be reduced) when the conversion takes place; or You can provide that the investor will receive a number of “units of membership Interest” (similar to shares of stock in a corporation) upon conversion -- this means that the investor will be “diluted” by other people who make investments in your company before conversion takes place. You may have to amend your LLC Operating Agreement if it does not currently provide for “units”. Other Documents. Because a convertible note is generally considered a “security,” you will need to prepare the following in addition to the convertible note itself: -- A “subscription agreement” by which investors agree to “purchase” their notes; -- An “investor questionnaire” so your lawyer can determine if the investor is “accredited” for purposes of federal and state securities laws; and -- Your LLC Operating Agreement

-- the investor does not sign this now (only upon conversion), but needs to review it now so she understands her rights and duties as an LLC member upon conversion. It is important that the subscription agreement contain a clause requiring the investor to sign the LLC Operating Agreement she received as part of her investment package, “as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time”, when the note is converted. Otherwise you may not have the ability to change your company’s Operating Agreement without her consent.

The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) referred the Site to EPA Region 4 in October 2020. EPA initiated a removal site evaluation at the Site and collected indoor air samples in individual condominium units and sub‑slab soil gas samples in the basement. Sub‑slab soil gas data revealed high concentrations of trichloroethylene (TCE). Due to the high levels of TCE, four air purifi­ cation units were placed in the basement which lowered the TCE concentrations. The Administrative Record file includes documents that form the basis for selection of the removal action. A removal action is a short‑term cleanup intended to stabilize a site that poses an immi­ nent and substantial threat to human health or the environment. Documents in the record may include a preliminary assessment and inspection report, test results, and the Action Memorandum. While a copy of the Administrative Record will be avail­ able at the EPA Region 4’s Superfund Records Center located at 61 Forsyth Street, S.W., Atlanta, Georgia, 30303, EPA Regional office is currently closed to the public for an unspecified period due to the ongoing situation with COVID‑19. The public, however, may view the Administrative Record online at: https://cumulis.epa.gov/ supercpad/CurSites/cadminrecord. cfm?id=0420235&doc= Y&colid=67020.
