David W. Bates <br /> Chief Production Manager <br /> Marley Cooling Tower <br /> 5800 Foxridge Drive <br /> Mission, Kansas 66202 <br /> Dear Mr . Bates: <br /> COMMUNITY RELATIONS PLAN, MARLEY COOLING TOWER COMPANY, STOCKTON, <br /> CALIFORNIA <br /> i <br /> The purpose of this correspondence is to transmit to you <br /> information obtained in community interviews conducted by <br /> Department staff during July and August 1988. Enclosed with this <br /> correspondence is a copy of the questionnaire and a detailed <br /> summary of the responses received to the questionnaire. These <br /> responses should be incorporated into the Community Relations Plan <br /> (CRP) outlining the community' s knowledge of the site, problems <br /> experienced due to the site and concerns about the site. <br /> In addition to the questionnaire, interviewees were asked if they <br /> would like to be informed of site activities, how they would like <br /> to be informed of site activities and to what levels did they <br /> expect remediation of the soils and groundwater to take place. <br /> Virtually all of the interviewees indicated they would like to be <br /> informed of site activities in the future. The suggested methods <br /> of obtaining the information ranged from flyers, newsletters , and <br /> fact sheets to television and newspaper announcements. I would <br /> suggest that a time schedule be prepared for inclusion in the <br /> CRP. This schedule shall outline key points, such as completion <br /> of the feasibility study (FS) and the release of the draft <br /> remedial action plan (RAP) and indicate how information is to be <br /> disseminated to the public. Departmental policy generally <br /> requires that a fact sheet be prepared at the completion of the <br /> FS and the release of the draft RAP. There are requirements for <br /> a public meeting after release of the draft RAP and policy <br /> generally dictates a public meeting after release of the FS. For <br /> your information, I have enclosed some examples of schedules from <br /> other CRP ' s. <br /> • The interviewees were also unanimous in their desire to see the <br /> contaminated soil and groundwater cleaned up to background <br /> levels. This desire should also be noted in the CRP. Noting <br />
