LINCOLN ST <br /> STOCKTON CA 95203 <br /> RE: Illegal Disposal of Hazardous Waste Complaint No. C00027477 <br /> NOTICE TO ABATE IMMEDIATELY <br /> A complaint has been received by this office alleging that you are responsible for a hazardous waste <br /> violation(s)(California Health and Safety Code,Division 20;Title 22,California Code of Regulations, <br /> Division 4.5). <br /> NATURE OF COMPLAINT: Buried container discovered onsite during site remediation,of an unknown <br /> size and unknown contents,possibly hazardous waste. <br /> OBSERVATIONS: An inspection conducted on December 28,2007 by Michelle Henry,REHS revealed a <br /> deteriorating container with a diameter of 2.5ft and an unknown depth. The container lip was unearthed <br /> approximately 4-5 feet under the ground. The container was full of moist soil. There was a strong odor <br /> present,possibly emanating from the container. It could not be determined at the time of inspection what <br /> the container held. Due to the inspector's inability to determine what was present she took a sample and <br /> offered a duplicate sample to Art Deicke,of Advanced GeoEnvironmental. At this time Art declined the <br /> inspector's sample,opting to take his own. The sample was then analyzed by GeoAnalytical Laboratories, <br /> for Hazardous Waste Characteristics,Pursuant to Title 22 Regulations. The sample results identified a <br /> flashpoint of 70°F,confirming it as hazardous waste. <br /> VIOLATION: HSC 25189.5(a) Disposed of or caused disposal of hazardous waste at an <br /> unauthorized point. The disposal of any hazardous waste or the causing thereof,is prohibited when <br /> the disposal is at a facility which does not have a permit from the department issued pursuant to this <br /> chapter, or at any point which is not authorized according to this chapter. Each day that the waste <br /> remains disposed of in violation of this section is an additional violation. <br /> CORRECTIVE ACTION: Effective immediately,the illegally disposed of container shall be <br /> removed and sampled under permit by this office.
