The <br />Floors are covered with carpet in the main living areas with <br />vinyl covering in the bath and kitchen areg8, <br />There are cracks in the kitchen doorway above the threshold on <br />the right side, this area is a small crack and may be normal for <br />the age of the house. <br />The basement on the south side entry has several areas where the <br />texture has popped out, and cracking is evident as well. The en- <br />try way has the same thing only about a foot fron the floor. This <br />appears to have moisture behind the bubble like hole. <br />The exteroir walls have several cracks in them, one on the west <br />side goes from the foundation to the living room window center. <br />There is another crack above the bathroom window on the south <br />side on the house which is normal for the age of the house. <br />The east side of the house, exterior wall, has severs) cracks <br />along the mortor that is between the rock, it also seems to have <br />loosened the mortor enough to break it off. <br />The owners have stated that the• last 2 months have been the <br />most noticed time of the mortor coming down on the east side of <br />the house. <br />The other complaint is the dust, (black) that reaches the house <br />when a easterly wind is promadent, from the railroad cars being <br />loaded with coal. <br />The owner also states that she has been coughing constantly and <br />more severe in the last month and accounts this from all the dust <br />that comes in from the blasting and the railroad cars being load- <br />ed during the day. <br />The house itself is structurally sound and has not been compro- <br />mised by the blasting. The foundation is healthy and so is the <br />main structure, although it does shake from the blasting, it <br />seems to be capable of withstanding that type of energy. <br />The home is hooked up to city water and does not have a well. <br />Pq. 1 of 2 <br />
