Archbold, Esq. <br /> NEUMILLER & BEARDSLEE <br /> 509 West Weber Avenue, 5th Floor <br /> Stockton, CA 95203 <br /> RE: Roek Brothers Site <br /> Our Client: Ted and Dena Knowles <br /> Dear Mr. Archbold: <br /> David Isola of our office has written you at least four times <br /> and has made at least a dozen of telephone calls to your office for <br /> the last several months. The only response we have had to date is <br /> a phone message on our after-hours answering machine about a family <br /> tragedy which we were very sorry to hear this news. <br /> Our clients are totally frustrated with this matter. If we <br /> could receive a phone call in response to our request for a <br /> meeting, we may be able to resolve all the issues between our <br /> respective clients. It is my belief that a meeting will be very <br /> productive. Without cooperation between our clients, attorney's <br /> fees will continue to be wasted on useless wrangling over issues <br /> which do not address the overall problems. <br /> By now you have received a copy of the letter directed to our <br /> clients from Linda Turkette, of the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department dated June 6, 1994 . We cannot <br /> respond to her letter without discussing with you and your clients <br /> the work plan previously submitted by your clients and subsequently <br /> rejected by the county. She has informed us that if the deadline <br /> of July 8, 1994 is not met, the State of California will issue a <br /> Cleanup and Abatement Order making the site inelligible for the <br /> Underground Storage Tank Cleanup Fund Program. <br /> This would be an extremely costly and expensive error. We <br /> would hold your clients personally responsible if in fact this site <br /> becomes inelligible for the Tank Fund because we cannot obtain the <br /> necessary permission and cooperation to submit the work plan in a <br /> timely manner. I urge you to respond to the concerns expressed in <br /> this letter immediately. <br />
