EL DORADO STREET <br />STOCKTON, CA 95202-1997 <br />March 21, 1996 <br />Mike Huggins <br />San Joaquin County, Environmental Health Division <br />P.O. Box 388 <br />Stockton, CA 95201-0388 <br />MONTHLY INSPECTION R REPORT FOR: FRENCH CAnIP LANDFILL <br />The purpose of this letter is to object to the violation for "ponded liquid" noted in the attached <br />March Disposal Site Inspection Report for the French Camp Landfill dated March 12, 1996. The <br />report states "there are still areas of ponded water over intermediate cover areas from previous <br />month inspection". However, in reviewing the inspection report for February, ponded water over <br />intermediate cover areas is not mentioned. The only inspection report that notes ponded water <br />over intermediate cover areas is the weekly Landfill Performance Standards report dated March <br />8, 1996. <br />The objection to the noted violation is in two parts. First, it is not reasonable to provide only <br />four days (from Friday, March 8th to Tuesday, March 12th) to correct a ponding issue in the <br />middle of the rainy season. Second, the ponding in question was shallow (only two to four <br />inches deep) and very localized as the attached pictures show. In fact, the ponding was so <br />shallow that a standard pump could not be used and a bilge pump, which can be seen in one of <br />the pictures, was brought on site in an attempt to pump the water. In addition, the low areas have <br />been staked and soil stockpiled near the ponded areas so that when the weather permits the low <br />spots can be filled. This can be seen in the attached picture dated March 20th. <br />"STOCKTON ... CALIFORNIA'S SUNRISE SEAPORT" <br />
