It has been our experience that open tank <br /> excavations allow for rapid downward migration of contaminants. <br /> Enclosed you will find an application package for the "Petroleum Underground <br /> Storage Tank Cleanup Fund" (Fund) . The Fund was created pursuant to Chapter <br /> 6.75 of the California Health and Safety code to help eligible owners and <br /> operators of petroleum underground storage tanks to: <br /> 1. Meet federal requirements to demonstrate financial responsibility; <br /> 2. Obtain reimbursement for costs of the cleanup of unauthorized <br /> releases of petroleum from USTs; and <br /> 3. Obtain reimbursement for damages awarded to third parties who are <br /> injured by petroleum releases. <br /> The Fund does not cover the costs incurred for the removal, repair, retrofit, <br /> or installation of USTs. The maximum amount available from the Fund is <br /> $990,000 per occurrence. Claimants are responsible for the first $10,000 of <br /> eligible costs. Subsurface investigations within the first $10,000 deductible <br /> must be performed under a workplan approved by PHS/EHD. <br /> If you have any questions, please contact the Site Mitigation Unit at (209) <br /> 468-3450. <br /> Ernest M.
