Valley Water Treatment -2- <br /> October 25,2005 <br /> Comi3liance with Corrective Action Re iiirements: In order to be reimbursed for your eligible costs of <br /> cleanup incurred after December 2, 1991,you must have complied with corrective action requirements of <br /> Article 11, Chapter 16,'Division 3, Title 23, California Code of Regulations. Article I 1 categorized the <br /> corrective action process into phases. In addition, Article 11 requires the responsible party to submit an <br /> investigative workplan/Corrective Action Plan (CAP)before performing any work. This phasing process <br /> and the workplan/CAP requirements were intended to: <br /> 1. Help the responsible party undertake the necessary corrective action in a cost-effective, efficient and <br /> timely manner; <br /> 2. Enable the regulatory agency to review and approve the proposed cost-effective corrective action <br /> alternative before any corrective action work was performed; and <br /> 3. Ensure the Fund will only reimburse the most cost-effective corrective action alternativee required by <br /> the regulatory agency to achieve the minimum cleanup necessary to protect human health, safety and <br /> the environment. <br /> In some limited situations interim cleanup will be necessary to mitigate a demonstrated immediate <br /> hazard to public health, or the environment. Program regulations allow the responsible party to undertake <br /> interim remedial action after: (1)notifying the regulatory agency of the proposed action, and; (2) <br /> complying with any requirements that the regulatory agency may set. Interim remedial action should only <br /> be proposed when necessary to mitigate an immediate demonstrated hazard.Implementing interim <br /> remedial action does not eliminate the requirement for a CAP and an evaluation of the most cost- <br /> effective corrective action alternative. <br /> Three bids: Only corrective action costs required by the regulatory agency to protect human health, <br /> safety and the environment can be claimed for reimbursement. You must comply with all regulatory <br /> agency time schedules and requirements and you must obtain three bids for any required corrective <br /> action. If you do not obtain three bids or a waiver of the three-bid requirement, reimbursement is not <br /> assured and costs may be rejected as ineligible. <br /> If you have any questions, please contact me at(916) 341-5784. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Carolyn Saputo <br /> Claims Review Unit <br /> Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Fund <br /> cc: Mr.Brian Newman Ms. Margaret Lagorio <br /> RWQCB, Reg. 5 - Sacramento San Joaquin County EHD <br /> 11020 Sun Center Drive 304 E Weber Ave, 3rd Floor <br /> Rancho Cordova,CA 95670 Stockton, CA 95202-2708 <br /> Californfi Environmental Protection Agency <br /> C11 Recycled Paler <br />
