PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY r. c ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH DIVISION ' Karen Furst, M.D., M.P.H., Health Officer 304 East Weber Avenue, Third Floor • Stockton, CA 95202 oA 209/468-3420 August 13, 1997 Mr. Ivan Vegvary, P.E.,L.S. 40 Terra Teresa Lafayette,CA 94549 Mr.Vegvary, Thank you for submitting your workplan and application so promptly. I have reviewed those documents and have questions or comments on the following: 1. The City of Stockton Fire Department needs to approve the underground storage tank closure in place before Environmental Health can approve it. Please provide that approval. 2. Mr. Willis indicated the tank and/or piping may be on neighboring property,before any permits can be issued the property must be surveyed to show the property line. If the tank and/or piping is on neighboring property you must provide approval from the owner of the neighboring property indicating they agree to a deed restriction on their property title. Also,no borings permits can be issued without a Written Access Agreement from the neighboring property owner if borings will be drilled from or on neighboring property. It is hard to tell from the drawings submitted which direction the borings will be drilled. A boring permit is required for each property. Please explain in detail exactly how the borings will be obtained to prevent any possibility of drilling through the tank.' 3. The check submitted was in the amount of$274 instead of$234. Would you like us to return the check and have you reissue it? Or would you prefer to apply it to any additional costs, if any? 4. The Closure application is still lacking an approved contractor. - 5. Hazardous waste will be generated because the tank is required to be decontaminated by rinsing unless the tank is to be removed and hauled as hazardous waste. This requires an EPA ID number. After the tank has been decontaminated by a qualified contractor it will then need to be inerted. Please provide that information in the application. 6. The underground storage tank regulations require the piping to be removed which will also require the piping to be decontaminated unless the piping is to be hauled as hazardous waste. 7. The piping will need to be sampled every twenty feet.- 8. Describe the inert solid that will be used to fill the tank. 9. Submit a Site Safety Plan explaining in detail all potential hazards at the site including grounding and bonding of the tank. 10. The final samples beneath the tank need to be taken in native soil which may be beyond two feet below the tank. 11. The Authorization to Release form needs,to authorize a laboratory,it was left blank. The items above are not listed in any order. The first step necessary is to obtain written permission for the closure in place from the fire department. Once that step has been completed the boring permit(s)need to be obtained and the borings done under Environmental Health's supervision. Once those borings come back clean the closure in place can be approved if the above items have been submitted. The final comment is that we need a new service request form signed by Mr. Willis and submitted to this office. A service request form is included. If you have any questions,please call me at(209)468-3451. Thank you, 113 Kasey Foley Senior REHS cc: Mr. Ken Willis, Mr.Richard Rowland,Mr.John Willbrand,Mr. David Irey, Mr.Gerald Smith A Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services
