NOTI.,: OF PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOC on the Draft Removal Action Workplan and Proposed Notice of Exemption for the Rotor Blades Site Stockton, California The California Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) requests public comment on a draft Removal Action Workplan (RAW) for the Rotor Blades site. The 1.35-acre site is located at 1514 East Scotts Avenue in Stockton, California. Past operations at the site contaminated soil with heavy metals (arsenic, lead). These contaminants need to be cleaned up before the site can be developed. The draft RAW proposes placing asphalt over uncovered surfaces at the site to reduce or eliminate exposure to the contaminants. In addition, a deed restriction limiting what the site can be used for in the future will be placed on the property. Before DTSC can approve a cleanup method, it must meet the requirements of a California state law known as the California Environmental Quality Action (CEQA). DTSC has determined that the proposed cleanup will have no potential negative effect on the environment and therefore qualifies for a categorical exemption (called a Notice of Exemption) under CEQA. The public comment period for the draft RAW runs from: June 2, 2008 through July 2, 2008 All written comments must be postmarked no later than July 2, 2008 and should be sent to the attention of Mr. Dean Wright, DTSC Project Manager, 8800 Cal Center Drive, Sacramento, California, 95826-3200.
