The appropriate <br /> disclosure of a hazardous waste discharge pursuant to Section 25180 . 7 of the <br /> Health and Safety code has been made , and the site has been placed on the list <br /> of contaminated sites in San Joaquin County which is maintained by PHS /EHD . <br /> PHS /EHD has been designated by the State of California Water Resources Control <br /> Board ( SWRCB ) as the local agency overseeing the investigation of leaking <br /> USTs . Pursuant to Section 25299 . 37 ( HSC ) , " dischargers " must take corrective <br /> action in response to the unauthorized release . <br /> Please be advised that PHS /EHD will be utilizing the SWRCB " Prioritization <br /> System for Leaking Underground Storage Tank Sites " ranking list in order to <br /> prioritize all the contaminated sites . The " Prioritization System " has <br /> established criteria to distinguish between High Priority Sites , Moderate <br /> Priority Sites , and Low Priority Sites . Site specific conditions which <br /> influence the placement within the ranking system are , for example , depth to <br /> groundwater , proximity to a drinking water source ( municipal or domestic <br /> well ) , the extent of soil contamination , and the site ' s clean up funding <br /> availability . <br /> Based upon the priority ranking , you will be directed to begin the required <br /> investigation . However , given the conditions for the prioritization , wherever <br /> possible PHS /EHD will work with you to coincide enforcement directives in <br /> conjunction with secured clean up funding . If you have any questions , contact <br /> the PHS /EHD Site Mitigation Unit for further information at ( 209 ) 468 - 3450 . <br /> If your tank removal was recent and you are not planning any remedial <br /> activities within 90 days , the tank excavation should be closed . It has been <br /> our experience that open tank excavations allow for rapid downward migration <br /> of contaminants . Contact the appropriate building department for specific <br /> requirements that may be necessary prior to filling with pea gravel and/or <br /> compacting the tank excavation with clean fill soil . <br /> Before receiving a PHS /EHD corrective action directive and in order to receive <br /> A Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services <br />
