NOVA® CONSULTING 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Authorization In accordance with the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) Well Boring Permit Application Requirements, Nova Consulting Group, Inc. (Nova) has prepared a Work Plan on behalf of Paul's Cleaners at Raley's Stockton located at 4339 West Hammer Lane Suite F,Stockton,CA 95209 ("the Property"). 1.2 Background A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) of the entire Raley's Stockton Property was previously completed by Nova and dated January 9,2013. The Property is comprised of four irregular-shaped parcels that contain a total of approximately 8.24 acres in size. The Property is designed and used for retail purposes. Currently, the Property is developed with two structures that were constructed in 1999. The structures at the Property are one story in height, and comprise a total of 104,835 square feet of building space. The Property contains a total of 14 units,which are occupied by twelve tenants for retail purposes. The two remaining units are vacant. The Property contains retail clothing stores,restaurants,hair and nail salons,a dry cleaner,supermarket, electronics store and automotive supply store. A recycling kiosk and storage trailers are located on the eastern side of the Raley's supermarket. Paul's Cleaners (2339 West Hammer Lane, Suite F) is an active dry cleaner. This dry cleaner has been a Property tenant since 1999. No evidence of any surface staining or spillage of dry cleaning solvents was observed adjacent to the dry cleaning machine in this unit. The floor adjacent to the dry cleaning machine appeared intact. However, minor cracks in the concrete,and degradation of the floor sealant were observed. Nova observed one drum labeled waste tetrachloroethylene (PCE) which was connected to the dry cleaning machine. One smaller drum was kept near the dry cleaning machine, and was labeled as containing waste PCE. It is considered a best management practice to place these drums within secondary containment. No surface staining or evidence of any spillage or leakage from the drums was observed. However, based on the length of time this suite has been used for dry cleaning purposes (approximately 13 years), the lack of secondary containment and the condition of the floor, this active dry cleaner is considered a recognized environmental condition in connection to the Property. Paul's Cleaners is currently listed on the EPA Dry Cleaner List with Facility ID CAL000207839. No violations are associated with this listing. No leaks or spills have been reported,or were observed by Nova personnel during our 2012 site reconnaissance. 1.3 Objective The objective of this Limited Phase II ESA is to evaluate the shallow soils (and groundwater, if encountered) for the presence of contamination associated with the use of the Paul's Cleaners tenant space as a dry cleaner and the associated use of dry cleaning chemicals.
