The above referenced facility has two underground storage tanks (UST) located on the premises. The first tank is a 5,000 -gallon diesel tank and the second tank is a 12,000 -gallon premium 91 -octane gasoline tank. The UST's have underground piping that transition to aboveground piping, and once aboveground, the piping runs underneath a pier and then over to a.dock, which has three dispensers. On September 3, 2005, this facility experienced a piping failure under the dock, which led to an unauthorized release of gasoline into the Delta, described below.

Ms. Le received a call on September 6, 2005, from Mr. Mike Spence with Village West Marina.
