Additionally, the project proposes to construct two single family <br /> residences, two accessory dwelling units and two duplexes. <br /> DTSC has identified that this project may affect an active or nonactive mitigation and <br /> clean-up site, which is located near or within the project boundaries. The site, California <br /> Fuels is currently vacant and fenced and a warehouse is the only remaining site <br /> feature. Fuel tanks were removed in June of 1988. Groundwater is very shallow, about <br /> 10- 20 feet and Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) was detected at 22 ppm at 7 feet. <br /> San Joaquin County referred the site to the Regional Water Quality Control Board <br /> (RWQCB). Based on our project review, we request consideration of the following <br /> comments: <br /> 1. The City of Gonzales enter into DTSC's Standard Voluntary Agreement <br /> (SVA) program or work with RWQCB and/or the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department, so a proper evaluation of the Project <br /> is completed. If entering into an SVA with DTSC, the FLUXX portal link is <br /> provided and the page also has a link to the Fluxx User Guide that can <br /> help you navigate the system. You will need to create a new profile and <br /> once in the system, click "Start a Request for Lead Agency Oversight <br /> Application. If you have any questions about the application portal, please <br /> contact the DTSC Brownfield Coordinator Gregory Shaffer or contact the <br /> Application Portal Inbox. <br /> 2. DTSC recommends that all imported soil and fill material should be tested <br /> to ensure any contaminants of concern are within approved screening <br /> levels for the intended land use. To minimize the possibility of introducing <br /> contaminated soil and fill material there should be documentation of the <br /> origins of the soil or fill material and, if applicable, sampling be conducted <br /> to ensure that the imported soil and fill material meets screening levels for <br /> the intended land use. The soil sampling should include analysis based <br /> on the source of the fill and knowledge of the prior land use. <br />
