At that <br /> point, we understand that the City will have to arrange to properly destroy the wells if <br /> they are no longer being used for their intended purpose. The Monitoring Well <br /> Installation Report that Hydrofocus is sending you will also have a lot of information on <br /> which wells in the Mossdale area still exist and which of these are and are not being <br /> used. I believe this report will clear up some of the questions you have. In the <br /> meantime, feel free to contact me with questions. <br /> --Dave <br /> From: Mike Infurna [EH] [mailto:MInfurna@sjcehd.com] <br /> Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2005 12:05 PM <br /> To: umezaki, dave <br /> Subject: RE: Well Maps [Item 3 of 3] <br /> thanks-that clears up a bunch. <br /> But I still have concerns over your last sentence....( ..."The California Natural <br /> Products or other private'monitoring wells that are not part of the network as <br /> described in the City's approved Monitoring Well Installation Workplan are <br /> under the resnon_sibili o that ownerlenttb�J. My experience with a change in <br /> land onwership has typically caused problems with monitoring well <br /> maintenance/access/destruction ('responsibility'). Our County ordinance mandates <br /> that"wells"must be used for their intended purpose. In this case, monitoring wells <br /> MUST be monitored. If these private wells were placed for some'pre-developmental' <br /> evaluation and are NO longer being used for that purpose, I STRONGLY recommend <br /> that if they are NOT added to the CoLathrop/WRP-1 project, that they be <br /> destroyed under EHD permit...In other words, USE it or LOSE it. <br /> Another concern I have is that when these wells (private or CoL)were installed at all of <br /> these parcels, the paper work EHD required to get the permit issued typically identified <br /> a 'billing party'for our inspection fees and this sort of follow up work. 99% of these <br /> 'billing'parties'are consultants, ie: Engeo-Tracy, Engeo-Roseville, Kleinfelder, etc. <br /> You can see that after this phase of work is done for the well installation, it's been my <br /> experience that the billing party/consultant ends their relationship with the client and <br /> doesn't tell EHD. When matters arise, like this, any billable time I spend enforcing our <br /> Well Ordinance gets billed to the billing party identified on the paperwork that started <br /> this project. This is usually a problem for them to pay since they have mostly ended <br /> contract requirements with their clients... <br /> So I have MWs in disrepair and NO ONE to fix them...Utimately the landowner gets a <br /> serious letter from me or the DA. I'd like to not have things go that far. <br /> so please figure out what wells you need and what wells you don't. Talk to me about <br /> them. I don't care what you call them now or later. But I must know where they are <br /> and how they are built so eventually EHD can have them properly destroyed when <br /> NOT needed. I treat ALL wells like RCRA('cradle to grave'accountability). <br /> I will be trying to match each well to a borelog and a location. Eventually, we all will <br /> decide which ones you want and don't want and go from there. <br /> thanks again. <br /> -----Original Message----- <br /> 9/21/2005 <br />
