Olive Avenue Stockton, CA 95215 The San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (EHD) has reviewed the data from the above subject site and the site at 4075 E. Main Street in Stockton and provides the following comments. The underground storage tank (UST) system was removed from 4075 Main Street in December 1998. The soil beneath the UST's, dispensers and piping was contaminated, including piping samples 3 and 6 which were collected about 50 feet from where monitoring well MW3 was installed at the 4075 Main Street site. The soil samples collected during installation of MW3 had contamination from 30 feet to 70 feet. Initially, there were high concentrations of contamination in the groundwater samples from MW3. The UST system removals at the Olive Street site occurred in October 1998. The piping and dispensers were located above the UST's, so soil samples were only collected beneath the UST's. There was minor contamination in the soil samples from the south end of Tank 1. Four soil borings and a monitoring well have been drilled at this site and no soil contamination was reported in any of the soil samples collected and analyzed. Total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPH-g) have been found in the groundwater samples from MW 1, located on the 1030 Olive Street site. This well is about 75 feet from MW3 on the 4075 Main Street site. The water samples from MW3 on the 4075 Main Street site had high TPH-g concentrations in 1999. Since 2003 when MW11 was installed at 1030 Olive Street, the concentrations of TPH-g in the water samples from MW1 have been similar to those found in the samples from MW3 at 4075 Main Street, except since November 2007 the concentrations in MW 1 have decreased. Since there has been minimum soil contamination found at the 1030 Olive Street site and the concentrations of TPH-g in the groundwater have significantly decreased, the EHD discussed the site information with the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board. Based on that discussion, the EHD directs that you proceed with submittal of a work plan by March 18, 2009, to perform a soil vapor investigation.
