I just wanted to follow-up with you regarding flushing of laterals at FJ 618 due to the 10/11/12 diesel spill. PARC's initial efforts at flushing the laterals resulted in a visual sheen still being observed if my understanding is correct. The presence of sheen is preventing sign-off of cleanup efforts. There were also some issues with removal of a grate for inspection. It appears that additional attention to the laterals is being required to ensure no further action. Please let me know if I am misunderstanding anything."
