As the Governor's Secretary of Environmental <br /> Affairs, I have been requested to respond on his behalf . <br /> Please be assured that it is not our desire to bankrupt you or <br /> any other tank owner faced with a cleanup problem. We are very <br /> concerned with your situation and have looked into the facts in <br /> order to better understand and provide some advice for resolution. <br /> From discussions with the San Joaquin County Local Health <br /> Department and the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, <br /> Central Valley Region, we obtained the following information: <br /> On December 17, 1979, an analysis of water from the well <br /> located on the adjacent property at Tracy High School was <br /> found contaminated. It was determined to be Shell regular gas <br /> and was traced to a ruptured tank on your property, then owned <br /> by Mr. Elroy Cox. <br /> On March 13, 1980, Tracy Joint Union High School District <br /> filed a claim (No. 320-5912-CW) against Mr. Elroy Cox for the <br /> contamination. A new well was constructed for the high school <br /> as a result of the claim. <br /> In 1983 or 1984, you purchased the site from Mr. Cox. <br /> In December 1986, you were advised of the need to remove the <br /> tanks which were not being used. <br /> In January or February 1990, the tanks were removed. <br /> 1102 Q STREET, SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA 95814 (916) 322-5840 <br />
