Weber Avenue, Third Floor <br /> Stockton, CA 95202 <br /> Re: Helena Chemical Company r 2245 West Chatter Way, Stockton, CA <br /> Dear Mr. Wilson: <br /> This letter follows up on my letter to you of October 29, 2001 regarding, among other things, your <br /> October 25, 2001 inspection of Helena's Stockton facility. <br /> The October 25 inspection report required Helena to provide information regarding a potential <br /> underground storage tank near Helena's facility. Shortly after the inspection, H®lena-Stoddon's <br /> Operations Manager, John Valdez, received a telephone call from Michelle Sterni-Le advising him <br /> that your office had obtained the information from another source, and that a response from Helena <br /> on the matter was no longer required. Accordingly, Helena has considered this matter resolved. In <br /> any event, Helena has not owned or controlled any underground tanks at the facility, and Helena <br /> has no information on the status of any such tanks. <br /> The inspection report also required that Helena properly lapel five unlabeled containers of material. <br /> Helena properly labeled each of these containers shortly after the October 25 inspection. Following <br /> this, two of the containers were removed from the site and properly disposed of early this month. <br /> Helena was instructed by your office to maintain the contents of another of the containers an site <br /> pending further instructions, and has done so. The other two containers hold a herbicide product. <br /> The inspection report also asked that Helena complete its contingency plan and submit a copy to <br /> your office by November 25, 2001. Helena and its consultant, George Donaldson of Geomatrbl are <br /> working diligently on this plan, and expect that it will be completed and submitted shortly. On <br /> Monday, the first business day after November 25, Mr, Donaldson requested from you an extension <br /> of time for completion of the plan, and we took forward to your response, <br /> SILICON VALLEY SAN DIEGO SAN gIEGO/GOLDEN TRIANGLE SAN FRANCISCO AUSTIN SEATTLE SACRAMENTO LA30LLA <br />
