Charter Way, Stockton, CA 95206 <br /> I. SUMMARY <br /> On May 11, 2005, complaint #C00022709 (Attachment 1) was received stating that an <br /> underground storage tank (UST)had been removed and left on the property. <br /> On May 13, 2005, John Jackson, Senior REHS, obtained permission from both the owner and <br /> tenant to investigate the property. During this investigation, Mr. Jackson observed a UST <br /> obviously removed from underground that appeared to be the tank in question. Mr. Jackson was <br /> told by the tenant that he removed the UST about two months earlier. Photos taken by Mr. <br /> Jackson on that date are incorrectly dated May 17, 2005 (Attachment 2). <br /> On September 1, 2005, Mr. Jackson sent a certified letter to the tenant, Mr. Alfonso Ocampo <br /> (Attachment 3), stating the removal of the UST required a permit from the San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department (EHD). The letter also stated that the permit must be <br /> submitted by October 1, 2005. <br /> When Mr. Jackson did not receive a removal application for the UST, he phoned the facility on <br /> October 26, 2005, and left a message for Mr. Ocampo requesting a call back to discuss the <br /> removed UST. Mr. Ocampo called back and informed Mr. Jackson he was merely a tenant and <br /> that responsibility belonged to the owner of the property. Mr. Ocampo provided Mr. Jackson the <br /> address and phone number for the property owner,Karimullah Bayanzay. <br /> On October 27, 2005, Mr. Jackson sent a letter to the Mr. Bayanzay specifying that the removal <br /> of the UST required a permit from EHD and the permit was to be taken out immediately <br /> (Attachment 4). <br /> On November 15, 2005, Mr. Dennis Catanyag contacted Mr. Bayanzay regarding the UST that <br /> had been removed without a permit or authorization from EHD. Mr Catanyag added there may <br /> potentially be a second UST on the property. Mr. Bayanzay said he had "no problem in doing it <br /> 930 E.Charter Way - 1/4 <br />
