Snavely <br /> 1601 East Hazelton Avenue ENVIROM ENTAL HEALTH <br /> P.O. Box 2009 FERMIT/SERVICES <br /> Stockton, CA 95201 <br /> Dear Mr. Snavely: <br /> On January 12 and 21 , 1987, correspondence was received at this office from <br /> our Stockton terminal which indicated your presence on site (encl 1 and 2) . <br /> During my telecon with Mr. Al Bieniecki at our terminal , I learned that you <br /> would be calling me here regarding the substance of your visit. There has <br /> been no such call to date, hence this letter. <br /> As near as I can determine your visit pertained to the two underground tanks <br /> at our terminal . Perhaps a bit of background information regarding those <br /> tanks may be helpful . <br /> On June 27, 1984 Time Oil Co. registered and paid the designated fee amounts <br /> for two underground tanks at our Stockton Terminal per Section 13173 of the <br /> Porter—Cologne Water Quality Control Act (encl . 3 & 4) . Both tanks — one <br /> 4,000 gallon (#90) and one 5,000 gallon (#123) had previously been installed <br /> as sump components of requirements in 40 CFR 112.7(e)(4)(ii) and 40 CFR <br /> 60.502(x) respectively. While neither of these sumps normally contain <br /> product, they could under certain circumstances such as a tank truck rupture <br /> or system failure. It is as a result of this remote possibility that the <br /> sumps were installed initially and registration was effected. <br /> Subsequently, the California Hazardous Substance Storage Act came into <br /> existance wherin such sumps were exempted from the definition of underground <br /> storage tanks in Section 25281 (r)(5) . <br /> As time passed, an internal change in the terminal vapor recovery system <br /> eliminated the need for the 5,000 gallon (#123) sump from that particular <br /> system. Since, by definition, the status of this sump has changed to that of <br /> "underground tank" , a permit to operate was applied for on February 7, 1986 <br /> (encl . 5) . Permit has not yet been received and the (now) "underground tank" <br /> has, of course, not been used . A check with our Loss Control office revealed <br /> this particular tank has, for some time, been scheduled for a petro tite test <br /> on February 10. Following satisfactory passing of the petro tite test, tank <br /> #123 will then be placed on our schedule for monitoring alternative 5, as are <br /> all other Time Oil Co. underground tanks in California. <br />
