PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES <br />sAN,OAQUIN COUNTY <br />ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DIVISION <br />Ernest M. Fujimoto, M. D., M.P.H., Acting Health Officer <br />304 E. Weber Ave., Third Floor • P. O. Box 388 • Stockton, CA 95201-0388 <br />209/468-3420 <br />GARY STEWART <br />PACIFIC STATE BANK <br />6 S EL DORADO <br />STOCKTON CA 95202 <br />RE: RANUIO PROPERTY <br />1789 W CHARTER WAY <br />STOCKTON CA <br />MAILED N 0 V 2 0109 <br />San Joaquin County Public Health Services, Environmental Health Division (PHS/EHD) is pleased to <br />provide this letter regarding the status of the cleanup of the release from the underground storage <br />tanks formerly located at the above noted address. <br />In 1990, soil excavation activities removed the bulk of the impacted soil from the area of the former <br />tank pit. The excavated soil was remediated by aeration and was subsequently put back into the <br />excavation. <br />Recently,soil borings were installed at the site which revealed groundwater contamination in the area <br />of the former excavation. Additional soil borings showed the extent of this contamination to be very <br />limited in scope. As the source (the impacted soil) has already been addressed, the removal of the <br />remaining contamination by excavation and groundwater pumping should be sufficient to abate the <br />recently identified groundwater problem. This approach has been used very successfully at other <br />nearby properties which have subsequently received a regulatory closure. This is the plan of action <br />being considered for implementation at this site, and barring anything unexpected, should abate the <br />problem sufficiently to satisfy regulatory requirements. <br />The property owner has maintained compliance with this agency in the past and, as the project is in <br />the final stages of regulatory oversight, PHS/EHD does not anticipate this situation to change. In <br />addition, the property owner is eligible to apply for reimbursement from the State of California State <br />Water Resources Control Board Cleanup Fund Program. This program offers tank owners relief from <br />cleanup costs by providing reimbursements up to $995,000 for work completed at these sites. <br />PHS/EHD is committed to promoting economic progress in our community whenever possible, and <br />hopes this letter will help to that end. If you wish to discuss this letter in more detail, please contact <br />Linda Turkatte, Senior REHS at (209) 468-3441. <br />Donna Heran, REHS, Director <br />Environmental Health Division <br />4 G 1-w44K <br />Linda A.
