Site Assessment Report September 24, 1997 This prompted the Health Department to request the removal and inspection of the concrete to further assess the potential for subsurface contamination. RCP confirmed the hydraulic displacement of fuels up through cracks by conducting a test using their own trucks. Amherst was requested by RCP to visually inspect the fueling facility and provide a report of its findings and recommendations. The following report is based on the requested inspection. Inspection On September 18, 1997, Amherst conducted a visual assessment of the facility and surrounding area. The following observations were noted during the site assessment.

In the past, Wilson Way was one of the few primary thoroughfares through Stockton on which were located a large variety of local businesses including motels.
