The well was drilled sometime in 1905 when the railroad was using steam <br /> locomotive to build the rail line from Stockton to Lodi and then on to Sacramento. <br /> 2. The concrete foundation was a cistern that was used to feed an above ground <br /> water tank for use in providing water for use in the Steam engines. <br /> 3. CCT had two steam engines from 1905 until the early 1940's. <br /> 4. Most operations on the CCT were electrified and the steam locomotives. <br /> 5. Pictures show this above ground tank in the area of the well in 1910 and 1930, <br /> pictures taken during the early 1940 show the tank removed and a track was built <br /> over the area where the well was. <br /> 6. The well was found under an existing track at about 5 feet below the grade of the <br /> track. The well was not used after 1940 for a water source. <br /> 7. The well is north and east of the two underground tanks that were removed. <br /> 8. The shop and building are hooked up to the city water and sewer. There are no <br /> other wells on the property. There are no septic tanks and the Locomotive <br /> inspection pit that was about 250 feet west of the well was removed as part of the <br /> remediation. There is not equipment washing done at this location. <br /> If I can provide any other information, please let me know. You can contact me at <br /> 209-466-6927 or on my cell at 209-471-6252. <br /> Thank you; <br /> Dave Buccolo <br /> ..-,b.... * <br /> General Manager <br /> Cc: Dave Solis REH <br /> Lori Duncan SJCEHD <br /> CnAe�0.onw /V,),a 4W <br />
