Box 388 <br />Stockton, CA 95201 <br />RE: Exempt underground farm tank removed from CA 6550 E. Highway 12, Lodi, CA. <br />Dear Sirs: <br />An exempt underground gasoline storage vessel was excavated and removed from <br />property owned by Mohammed Malik on the above mentioned date. The tank was in <br />extremely poor condition. So much so that simple excavation caused it to crumble into <br />small unrecognizable pieces of rusted out steel. This vessel is one of the very old riveted <br />type tanks approximately 200 gallons in size. There was no odor of gasoline or soil <br />discoloration in the tank excavation area. Due to its condition this vessel could not have <br />been used for a very long time. Triple rinse of the pieces of the tank is impractical. The <br />remaining pieces of this tank will be disposed of at Schnitzer Steel Products, .Rancho <br />Cordova, CA as scrap metal. (see attached tank tracking record) <br />The condition of the vessel and circumstances surrounding this tank removal were <br />reported to Kasey Foley of SJPHS/EHD by Richard Thorpe during a telephone <br />conversation this P.M. <br />Sincerely, <br />JIM THORPE OIL, INC. <br />Richard Thorpe, President <br />
