Infurna, Jr. Sr. RENS LOP/Site Mitigation Unit IV LOP/Site Mitigation Unit IV PHS-San Joaquin County PHS-San Joaquin County Environmental Health Division Environmental Health Division 304 East Weber Avenue, Third Floor 304 East Weber Avenue, Third Floor Stockton, Calffomia 95202 Stockton, California 95202 RE: Site Address: 1717 South Center Street Stockton, California Dear Ms Lagorio and Mr. Infurna: It is our understanding that our consultants and the attorney representing Earthgrains have requested a week or so delay for the installation of monitoring wells. This letter is to inform you that our client Jerry Gregerson, the attorney representing Earthgrains and the attorney representing personal representative for the Estate of George Whitman will be entering into various financial agreements regarding the cleanup costs at the above-referenced site. Details are now being worked out in those Agreements with the Water Board and all parties involved which has caused some delay in the execution of these Agreements. We simply want to make sure that all agreements are executed before the work begins so that the costs are eligible for Tank Fund reimbursement and believe we can have the agreements signed by next week or so. It is our understanding that the consultants have applied for drilling permits with the County and an encroachment permit with the City of Stockton. Depending upon the City issuing the encroachment permit (the City has indicated the permit would not be ready until June 30th), the drill rig is available for June 281 (for one day) to possibly drill the two on-site wells, or June 301, July 11 and July 2nd to do all the wells with one mobilization which Is less costly. We would prefer to schedule the drill rig for July 10'and 2nd in order that the encroachment permit is issued and in hand so that the installation of all three monitoring wells can be done with one mobilization. Ground Zero assures us that the report of findings for the three monitoring wells will be submitted on or before July 30, 1999.
