Box 2009 • (1601 East Hazelton Avenue) • Stockton,California 95201 <br /> (209) 468-3400 <br /> TO: Ton Vorster, Senior Engineer <br /> S9" (0pCentral Valley Regional Water Quality Control Bo <br /> FROM: Fred Kaufman, REHS, Program Manager <br /> San Joaquin County Public Health Services <br /> Environmental Health Division <br /> DATE: January 17, 1990 <br /> RE: 14318 S. Airport Way, Manteca, CA <br /> Our division is becoming increasingly concerned regarding the operations at the above <br /> referenced site. I have enclosed a letter from the South San Joaquin Irrigation District <br /> regarding pollution of an adjoining irrigation drain with whey. We have on previous <br /> occasions found evidence of this type of discharge to the drain and have reported this to <br /> CVRWQCB. We have also responded to complaints regarding odors emanating from a <br /> waste pond across the road which receives drainage from the ponds located at the site. <br /> Our concern is two-fold. We understand that since the cheese plant has acquired new <br /> management, they intend to expand the volume. Also we have reason to suspect that the <br /> Chiron Corporation next door discharges drainage to these same ponds. Since Chiron is <br /> an industrial operation, we question the quality of the discharge. <br /> I have enclosed a copy of a newspaper article which raised our concern regarding industrial <br /> discharges. <br /> Should you have any questions regarding this matter, contact me at (209)468-3426. <br /> A Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services 0 <br />
