MEMORANDUM DATE: January 5, 1995 TO: Donna Heran, Director Public Health Services, Environmental Health Division FROM: Diane M. Hinson, Supervising R.E.H. S . Site Mitigation Unit SUBJECT : HSA, 145 S SUTTER ST FORMER COUNTY GARAGE, 130 N HUNTER STi MCCORMICK & BAXTER, 1214 W WASHINGTON ST HSA - 145 S SUTTER ST Mr. Calistro has failed to fulfill his obligation of submitting a workplan to continue the necessary investigation. He and I spoke in August, 1994 at which time Mr. Calistro indicated his consultant, Weston, would be contacting me for details for the workplan preparation. I have reviewed the file since the last conversation, and nothing has been submitted nor has Mary Meays had any contact from the consultant. I have instructed Mary Meays to initiate our enforcement letters due to the lack of compliance. The first enforcement letter, in a series of letters, directs the responsible party (RP) to submit a workplan within 14 days from the date of the letter. Should Mr. Calistro fail to submit a workplan, the second letter directs the RP to attend an administrative hearing to explain his cause. Mr. Calistro had stated to me that during the 1993-94 budget year money had been set aside for the investigation. Mr. Calistro has had ample time to secure adequate funds for the duration of the investigation and cleanup of the site. FORMER COUNTY GARAGE - 130 N HUNTER ST A directive letter was mailed to Craig Ogata on November 30, 1994 establishing a deadline date of January 30, 1995 for the submittal of a workplan to investigate the contamination and to submit a closure plan for the removal of the 2 underground storage tanks. MCCORMICK & BAXTER - 1214 W WASHINGTON ST The signs have been very well maintained on all the designated locations. I have made periodic inspections since the installation in May, 1994 and have found the signs intact and properly mounted. The City of Stockton and the County of San Joaquin were jointly performing the maintenance of the signs and have been doing a thorough job. To date, the inquiries from the public has been minimal.
