DTSC <br /> recommends that additional research be conducted to determine whether pesticides <br /> were used on the proposed development site. Although DTSC does not regulate legally <br /> applied pesticides, if pesticides have historically been used on the property, we strongly <br /> recommend that these areas be tested for environmentally persistent pesticides such <br /> as DDT and metals prior to development. The results of any testing should be <br /> evaluated to determine if concentrations present in soils will be protective of workers. <br /> If you have any questions, please contact me at email tmiles(o)dtsc.ca.gov or by <br /> telephone at (916) 255-3710. <br /> Sincerely, "^ n <br /> lY� <br /> Tim Miles <br /> Hazardous Substances Scientist <br /> cc.
