<br />RE: ILLEGAL LANDFILL LOCATED AT 23023 S. SANTA FE ROAD, RIVERBANK, CA
<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 Code
<br />of Regulation, Title]4, Section 17760 (Article 7.8); currently Title 27, Section 21090 (Article 2). Steven A. Mindt of PHS-EHD
<br />noted the new dumping activity on April 22, 1998 during a routine inspection. Bill F. Lane, the adjacent landowner, utilised the site
<br />to dispose, of household solid waste as well as construction and demolition debris.
<br />On June, 3 1998, an inspection was conducted with Tom Sweeso, a code enforcement officer with San Joaquin County Community
<br />Development Department and Brad Williams and Jerry Oberhelman of the: California Integrated Waste Management Board. The
<br />inspection revealed recent dumping, excavation and other dirt moving activities. The last annual inspection, condu(ted on May 8,
<br />2000, several violations were noted. The site has been left unsecured and open to new dumping. The observed waste accumulation
<br />violates disposal and storage regulations under the Public Resources Code, Part 4, Sections 43000 — 43022; California Health and
<br />Safety Code, Sections 25189.5 and 25201(a); California Code of Regulations Title 27, Article 1, Sections 20530; Califomia Code of
<br />Regulations Title 27, Article 2, Sections 21090 — 21200; California Code of Regulations Title 27, Article 3, Sections 20750; and San
