I <br /> + The presence of contaminants at your facility exceed the allowable limits of <br /> leaching potential as recommended by the LUFT Manual 1. The former <br /> underground storage tank(s) (UST) cannot be recommended for final closure <br /> 1 without further investigation to determine theyfull"extent of the soil and/or <br /> 1 groundwater problem. !' <br /> 1 i <br /> { PHS/EHD is providing you notification that an "Underground Storage Tank <br /> Unauthorized Release (Leak)/Contaminated Site Report" has been filed pursuant <br /> to Section 25295 of the Health and Safety Code�(HSC)' .

The "Prioritization System" has I <br /> established criteria to distinguish between High Priority Sites, Moderate <br /> Priority Sites, and Low Priority Sites. Site specific conditions which <br /> i influence the placement within the ranking system are, for example, depth to <br /> } groundwater, proximity to a drinking water source (municipal or domestic <br /> well) , the extent of soil contamination, and the site's clean up funding <br /> availability. <br /> Based upon the priority ranking, you will be directed to begin the required <br /> investigation. However, given the conditions for the prioritization, wherever <br /> Possible PHS/EHD will work with you to coincide enforcement directives in <br /> y conjunction with secured clean up funding. if'iyou have any questions, contact <br /> the PHS/EHD Site Mitigation Unit for further information at (209) 468-3450. <br /> If your tank removal was recent and you are not planning any remedial <br /> activities within 90 days, the tank excavation) shou;ld be closed. It has been <br /> f our experience that open tank excavations allow for;irapid downward migration } <br /> of contaminants.
