I0, From: Oakland Bag Corp. 635 South Aurora St. Stockton, CA nno II To: San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department �ll��u v Date: Oct. 28, 2008 OCT 3 0 2008 ENVIRONMENT HEALTH Responses and requests regarding Notice of Violation dated SeptemWAb;SERVICES 2008 #6 HSC, section25189.5 and #51 HSC section 25163(a) Explanation: Oakland Bag Corp. had purchased Eagle Bag Inc. in Jan. 2008 located in 700 Independent Road, Oakland and had lost the lease to continue on the Oakland location. The old property 700 Independent Road had been sold to a new owner in July 2008 and the new owner was very harsh on evicting us and was given us one month's notice to move the entire factory (all 132,000 SF of stuff).

The new owner of Oakland Bag and the new office staff did not have experience in this line of business and were depending on the previous owners to consult business and the previous owners were not aware of this rule also.
