cut in the other end. Mr. Fisch told me he had cut the two foot window in the <br /> UST. This is in violation of the Uniform Fire Code. I saw 3-4 feet of piping <br /> sitting on top of the tank. <br /> I returned to the office and obtained a camera to document the location of the <br /> UST. Michael Kith and I returned to Scotts Street and photographed the UST <br /> from the street and sidewalk in front of the house. I was unable to obtain a <br /> picture of the pickup because Mr. Fisch was gone. (Photos 1) <br /> Before 5 pm on May 5, 1995, Mr. Fisch came to the PHS-EBD counter and obtained <br /> an Application for Permit Close UST. <br /> May 8, 1995** I started UST file for 2523 E. Scotts in Stockton. <br /> May 9, 1995** PHS-EHD received $234.00 payment and Application for UST <br /> Closure Permit from David Fisch. (Closure Plan 2 D) <br /> May 15, 1995 <br /> A new contractors file is created for Fisch Environmental Construction. <br /> May 17, 1995 <br /> David Fisch, contractor did not submit proof of Workers Compensation <br /> Insurance. Instead, he submitted a Waiver in Lieu of Workers Compensation <br /> (When you do not hire Employees) . (Contractors Information 3 O) <br /> May 17, 1996** I reviewed the Application for Closure and documented <br /> information still needed to complete the plan. I requested that an office <br /> hearing be scheduled, and I spoke to Doug Wilson and Kasey Foley and asked if <br /> further enforcement action would be needed. <br /> May 18, 1995** Ms. Foley phoned around to local contractors to see if anyone <br /> else bid on this job. Ms. Foley discovered that another local contractor had <br /> bid $3,300 to obtain permits and remove this UST. The contractor explained to <br /> Ms. Foley that he had called Mrs. Romero back to find out who got the job and <br /> she told him someone who had bid less money to remove the UST got the job. <br /> May 22, 1995** David Fisch came in to PHS-EHD and submitted requested Closure <br /> Plan information an Authorization to Release signed by Sherry Romero, paid <br /> state surcharges of $112. 00, and told me he would call in the EPA#. The EPA# <br /> is CAC000932992. <br /> May 23, 1995** I conditionally approved the closure plan, and submitted it to <br /> Kasey Foley. <br /> May 30, 1995** At Ms. Foleys request, I added obtaining a fire permit prior <br /> to UST removal to the approval conditions. (Closure Plan 2 D) <br /> I also phoned and spoke to Sherry Romero re: status of Tank removal and fees <br /> owing. <br /> June 9, 1995** The UST removal/soil sampling was done under permit and <br /> inspection of Ron Hiltscher, COS Fire Prevention, and I. No dry ice was used <br /> to purge the tank today, according to David Fisch, who explained the tank had <br /> been purged and cut on May 5, 1995. Ron Hiltscher read the LEL which was <br /> zero, and observed the 2 ft. hole cut in the tank. Ron Hiltscher told David <br /> Fisch he was in violation of the Uniform Fire Code for cutting the tank <br /> without a permit and future tank cutting would require a fire permit. <br /> June 12, 1995 <br /> I started work on the D.A. case for Fisch Environmental Construction. <br /> 4 <br />
