2 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Regional Water Board staff have been communicating regularly with AGE staff regarding the work currently in process to <br />investigate the adjoining CoGen facility. Furthermore, we have communicated with AGE staff on the diesel cleanup <br />project on the former Pilkington property. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />At no time since submittal of the 12/21 Work Plan Addendum or the 2/22 Clean Closure Plan was it communicated to <br />Regional Water Board staff that there was an urgent need to complete review of the Clean Closure Plan due to <br />scheduled excavation activities. Regional Board staff first became aware of the scheduled excavation while in the field <br />observing the CoGen facility drilling on 12 March. In my telephone conversation with Dana Parry on 13 March, I learned <br />that these activities were scheduled over two weeks ago, with no attempt to inform Regional Water Board staff, even <br />though we were communicating regularly with your staff on other issues (i.e., CoGen and Diesel spill). <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Had the urgency been communicated, we could have scheduled our time appropriately. However, at this late juncture, <br />your work plan is not approved by Regional Board staff. Although we will make our best effort to review the work plan <br />and provide comments prior to the scheduled activities, at the time of this writing, your client is moving forward on his <br />own volition with the possibility that confirmation sampling will need to be repeated and/or additional excavation <br />required in order to received concurrence from the Regional Water Board on Clean Closure. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />If you wish to discuss this further, do not hesitate to reply to this email or call me at the number below. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Gerald Djuth, PE, CEG <br /> <br />Chief, Federal and Private Site Cleanup Unit <br /> <br />Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board <br /> <br />11020 Sun Center Dr., #200 <br /> <br />Rancho Cordova, CA 95670 <br /> <br />916-464-4677 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
