OES Office of Environmental Services (within ODOT). OEPA Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. OSHA Occupational Safety and Health Administration. OVA Organic Vapor Analyzer. Parcel Piece of land or real estate owned by an individual or entity and bounded by property lines. PCBs Polychlorinated Byphenols. A class of chlorinated chemicals which were used in the electrical field as coolants and lubricants in transformers and capacitors. PCS Petroleum Contaminated Soils. PDP Project Development Process. PRP Potentially Responsible Party. Phase I ESA Phase I Environmental Site Assessment. Typically the second step of environmental site assessment activities in determining the presence of hazardous substances within a project study area. This involves gathering parcel-specific information to determine if Phase II Environmental Site Assessment is required. Phase II ESA Phase II Environmental Site Assessment. Typically the third step of environmental site assessment activities in determining the presence of hazardous substances within a project study area. This involves sampling and testing of soils and/or groundwater within the proposed and/or existing right-of-way. PID 1.) Project Identification Number. The primary number used to identify an ODOT project. 2.) Photo Ionization Detector used in field screening for sample selection. xliii
