Matt 848 East First Street Escalon, CA 95320 Website: www.sjgov.org/ehd Phone: (209) 468-3420 Fax: (209) 464-0138 Subject: C A Matt 1303 East First Street Escalon, CA 95320 DIRECTOR Donna Heran, REHS ASSISTANT DIRECTOR Laurie Cotulla, REHS PROGRAM COORDINATORS Carl Borgman, REHS Mike Huggins, REHS, RDI Margaret Lagorio, REHS Robert McClellon, REHS Jeff Carruesco, REHS, RDI Kasey Foley, REHS JUN 2 6 2008 San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (EHD) has recently reviewed the file for the above subject underground storage tank site and has the following comments. Seven underground storage tanks (UST's) previously used to store petroleum hydrocarbon fuels were removed from this site under EHD permit and inspection on September 9, 1986. Soil samples were collected from beneath the UST's and submitted for laboratory analysis. Results from the laboratory, however, were not submitted to the EHD until February 1989 and were not submitted in an acceptable format. The submitted results were hand written and were not accompanied by a chain of custody documenting their collection and receipt by the laboratory. In correspondence dated September 28, 1993 you were notified by the EHD of the problems with the analytical results from the tank removal activities and directed to submit either properly documented laboratory results, or, if they were not available, to conduct further investigation to get the analytical data that is required to obtain regulatory closure for this site. Until the required data is submitted to the EHD your site will be considered an open UST site. This may affect any future sale or development of your property. In addition, you are not in compliance with California Health and Safety Code requirements [Section 25298(c)(4)] that you demonstrate to the EHD that there were not past releases from the UST's. In 1996 the City of Escalon conducted environmental investigations at several locations along the McHenry Avenue/Hwy 120 corridor in preparation for a roadway realignment project. Two soil borings were advanced on your property; laboratory analytical results reported elevated concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination in soil samples collected from one of the borings. This reported contamination may or may not be a result of fuel dispensing activities at your site, but further investigation is needed for confirmation.
