Site Description Current site features, as shown on Figure 2, include the former station building in the western portion of the site and four former dispenser islands in the eastern portion of the site. Formerly, multiple underground storage tanks (USTs) were installed in a common basin in the southern portion of the site. The site, including the former station building, has recently been used as an auto repair shop. Site History The site was operated through approximately 1982 as a gasoline station. On information and belief, the site was owned by RMRA Investment Company (RMRA) at least as early as 1964. RMRA was a partnership composed of Edmond P. Rishwain, Robert J. Rishwain, Tony Massod and Sam P. Abdallah. RMRA or its individual partners appear to be represented by the Law Firm Rishwain & Rishwain in Stockton, California. A City of Stockton (Stockton) permit application dated 14 April 1964 indicates that Caminol Company, a.k.a. Beacon Oil Company, requested the undeveloped site be used as a gasoline service station. Stockton issued a Use Permit to Caminol to operate a service station on 20 May 1964., A Lease Settlement and' Release agreement dated 5 January 1982 was entered into by Beacon Oil Company and Rishwain and others regarding a lease dated 21 July 1964. The agreement stipulated that Beacon Oil Company had removed the USTs. It is unclear on what date the USTs and dispensers were removed although it was probably late 1981. The EHD has no record of USTs being removed from the site. In or about May 1984, site ownership was transferred to Richard and Susan Cipolla. In or about 1984, the site was converted to an automobile repair facility operated by the Cipollas. It is unclear what chemicals or products were used by the Cipollas in their repair business, or whether any products were stored in above -ground tanks or USTs. The Cipollas appear to have ceased operations in or about June 2000. In or about 2000, site ownership appears to have been transferred to Sayed Abdelwahed and Zakia Abdelwahed. In or about 2000, the. Abdelwaheds began operating an auto repair business at the site under the name ZE Auto Repair. It is unclear what chemicals or products have been used by the ZE Auto Repair, or whether any products were stored in above -ground tanks or USTs. Previous Investigations In March 2001, Environmental Remediation Technologies (ERT) performed a site inspection for Stockton Mortgage. No evidence of existing USTs at the site was reported by ERT and no records were found at the EHD.
