CHARTER WAY <br /> STOCKTON, CA 95205 <br /> On February 7, 1996 four (4) underground tanks (UGT) were removed from the <br /> above mentioned site under a permit issued by San Joaquin County Public <br /> Health Services, Environmental Health Division (PHS-EHD). The appointment was <br /> made over the phone by Terri Stack of your office with Michael Infurna of PHS- <br /> EHD for 12:45 PM. <br /> Concurrently, across Lincoln Street to the west, a UGT was being removed under <br /> PHS-EHD permit at 8:45 AM. After the requirements of this tank pull were met, the <br /> PHS-EHD inspector returned to the office and notified me that the backhoe <br /> operator on the ARCO site was removing the piping from the ground and there <br /> was not a representative of PHS-EHD on site. <br /> When I arrived on site at 11 :30 AM to verify the site conditions I noticed that the <br /> ground in the island area was disturbed and leveled off. Pieces of fiberglass <br /> piping were stockpiled to the south of the site, away from the island area and <br /> some lengths of piping were lying on the surface of the disturbed soil. These <br /> lengths were not connected to other pieces of fiberglass piping and did not <br /> correspond to any recognizable piping trenches. <br /> When I questioned Lupe, the backhoe operator, he told me the piping was <br /> shallow and in the process of removing the islands he kept running over the <br /> piping repeatedly destroying it. <br /> A Division of San Joaquin Count'Health Care Sereices <br />
