O. Box 2009 <br /> Stockton, CA 95201 <br /> Dear Ms. Reuss: <br /> Enclosed., for your review, is the Preliminary Assessment Report of the Soil Investigation <br /> of 1033 East Scotts Avenue in Stockton. This is the site of soil contamination caused by <br /> leaking underground tanks owned by the former landowners. Although Santa Fe just <br /> recently acquired the property and removed the tanks, we are proceeding with the cleanup <br /> at the County's request. Also, enclosed is the Letter of Acknowledgement which you <br /> requested accompany all proposals or reports submitted to your office for review. <br /> The investigation involved the completion of 10 soil borings in and around the former <br /> underground tank locations. Clean bottom-of-the-hole samples were obtained from 9 of <br /> the 10 borings. Oil contamination was found to have migrated to more than 35 feet below <br /> the ground surface in one of the borings. Since the groundwater is expected to be between <br /> 35 and 40 feet below the ground surface at the site, it is likely that some of the oil has <br /> reached the groundwater. Therefore, we will proceed with preparation of a workplan for a <br /> preliminary groundwater investigation at the site. Your review and comments on the <br /> enclosed report will be helpful in preparing the workplan. <br /> Arrangements are being made for Erickson in Richmond to transport and dispose of the <br /> three drums of soil cuttings which were generated during drilling activities. The soil <br /> cuttings will probably be taken to Kettleman City for disposal. At that time we will <br /> submit a copy of the manifest to your office as proof of disposal of the soil. <br /> If you have any questions regarding the enclosed report, please contact me or ERM-West's <br /> Jim Quinn or Shannon Sadler. <br /> Very truly yours, <br /> M. P. Stehly <br /> General Director-Technical Services <br /> By <br /> D. C. Clark, P. E.
