Weber Ave., 3rd Floor <br /> Stockton, CA 95202 <br /> r <br /> Re: Local Oversight Program:Underground Storage Tanks <br /> Dear Mr. Wilson: <br /> The Libbey-Owens-Ford Co. (LOF)has reviewed correspondence dated October 15,1997 from San <br /> Joaquin County Public Health Services(SJC)regarding the removal of a 5,000 gallon underground <br /> storage tank(UST)on August 29,1997. LOF takes exception to the conclusion that further investigation <br /> is necessary at the site. <br /> Upon removal of the UST and under the direction of a member of SJC,six soil samples were taken for <br /> were"not detected"with the exception of the le sam <br /> laboratory analyses. The results(copy enclosed) P P <br /> taken west of the UST. The results from this particular sample were"not detected"except for MTBE <br /> which had a value of 0.0060 mg/kg. It should be noted that the laboratory's reporting limit was 0.0050 <br /> mg/kg. It is LOF's understanding that a regulatory action level for MTBE has not been established <br /> though some agencies have used 35 ppb as a guideline. SJC should also take into consideration where the <br /> site is located and historic events related to surrounding uses. <br /> i <br /> Based upon the above cited information,LOF is requesting that SJC remove this site from the list of <br /> contaminated sites in the county. LOF believes that this site does not pose a risk and closure is <br /> appropriate. If there are any questions,please contact me at 858-6202. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Jon Weiss <br /> Environmental Coordinator <br /> cc:Ron Rowe; SJC,w/o enclosures <br /> Libbey-Owens-Ford Co.
