k%f KL ElNFELDER 2. BACKGROUND The Independent Trucking Company (ITC) facility is located at 1145 West Charter Way, Stockton California (Plate 1) Two 10,000-gallon aboveground diesel storage tanks (AGSTs) were formerly used to dispense fuel Both AGSTs have been emptied and removed from the site ITC has leased the property since October 1985 The current property owners are W W Miles and Patricia L Nolet According to information obtained by ITC, the current owners acquired the property in 1956 from Nomellini Construction which operated a heavy equipment business on the property prior to 1956 Nomellini Construction continues to own property adjacent to the eastern boundary of 1145 W Charter Way Between 1956 and 1970, 1145 W Charter was ' apparently operated by Mr Miles as a trucking business Between 1970 and 1985, several tenants occupied the property and also operated trucking businesses on the property At least six past and present owners and tenants have occupied the property for at least the past 38 years and are believed to have conducted trucking operations on the property similar to the type of operations currently being carried out by ITC The two AGSTs previously located at 1145 W Charter Way predate ITC's use of the site, and presumably were used by Mr Miles and/or his tenants to service trucks and equipment that were part of their trucking operations ITC does not know the past spill history for these tanks ITC utilized the AGSTs since occupying the property in 1985 for its own trucking operations In May 1995, approximately 2,000 gallons of diesel fuel were discharged as a surface spill from a fuel dispenser from one of the two AGSTs The discharge was reported to the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) The fuel spill was located along the western side of the secondary containment wall for the AGST and covered a portion of the northeast area of the property At the request of ITC, Dillard Environmental excavated approximately 500 cubic yards of contaminated soil The soil was transported to Forward Landfill for disposal Verification samples were collected by ITC (Carrie Fisher, Eric Horton) ' All but one sample showed non-detectable results for diesel fuel The area where the one sample containing diesel was collected was excavated and resampled No petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations (diesel) were reported in the sample taken during resampling The SJCEHD (Linda Turkette) was present during both the initial sampling and the resampling Following 23-482276-BOO/CR96S276 Page 2 of 1 l October 17, 1996 Copyright 1996 Klemfelder Inc
