CA 94244-2120 SAMPLE 916) 739-4352 O J Responsible Parties COST RECOVERY FOR OVERSIGHT OF LEAKING UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK (UST) CLEANUP When the local agency included your site in the pilot program for leaking underground storage tank (UST) cleanup, you received a letter explaining that the State Water Resources Control Board (State Board) would bill you for public costs of cleanup oversight. Enclosed is a- bill for local and Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) supervision of cleanup at the site listed in the enclosed bill. You will be billed at a future date for State Board program management. This bill contains site-specific and program management costs. Site-specific charges are based on technical work related exclusively for the site and are listed on the enclosed °Itemized New Charges" sheet. The column entitled :A (for activity) contains a three-digit number. A description of invoice activity codes is printed on the reverse side of this letter. Site-specific charges also cover laboratory analyses of samples, if any were taken by the local agency staff. Program management costs include administrative work and laboratory consultation related to the general cleanup program. There are local and state program management charges. Local program management includes both start-up and ongoing activities. State program management includes both State Board and Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) work. Your share of program management and laboratory consultation charges depends on how much site-specific time was charged to your site, compared with all site- specific time charged by the local agency. For example, if 10 hours were charged to your site, and 1,000 hours were charged to all sites, then your share of program management costs would be 10 divided by 1,000 or one percent. Your payment is due within 30 days of receipt of this bill. Please return one copy of the invoice with your payment. If you have any questions about this bill, please call the State Board and not the local agency overseeing cleanup.
