<br /> RE: ILLEGAL LANDFILL LOCATED AT 23201 S.SANTA FE ROAD,RIVERBANKFA
<br /> I.SUMMARY
<br /> This property has recently been used as a disposal site for household solid waste as well as construction and demolition debris.
<br /> The history of the site indicates that hazardous waste has been disposed of at the site.Prior to 1960,the site was operated as Snyder
<br /> sanitary dump. The site was closed in 1960 when the owner, Chester Snyder,was placed in jail for operating the dump in an un-
<br /> sanitary method. The site is a certified Closed, Illegal or Abandoned (CIA) Site, pursuant to yearly inspections under California
<br /> Code of Regulation,Titlel4, Section 17760(Article 7.8); currently Title 27, Section 21090(Article 2). Steven A. Mindt of PHS-
<br /> EHD noted the new dumping activity on April 22, 1998 during a routine inspection. The new dumping was being conducted by the
<br /> current landowner Bill F. Lane. On June,3 1998,an inspection was conducted with Tom Sweeso,a code enforcement officer with
<br /> San Joaquin County Community Development Department and Brad Williams and Jerry Oberhelman of the California Integrated
<br /> Waste Management Board. The inspection revealed recent dumping, excavation and other dirt moving activities. The observed
<br /> waste accumulation violates disposal and storage regulations under the Public Resources Code, Part 4, Sections 43000 –43022;
<br /> California Health and Safety Code, Sections 25189.5 and 25201(a); California Code of Regulations,Article 7.8, Sections 17760–
