Box 388 • Stockton, CA 95201-0388 <br /> 209/468-3420 <br /> L U) <br /> KHALDOON OTHMAN <br /> K&S GAS AND GROCERY MAO JAN 2 41995 <br /> 701 E CHARTER WAY <br /> STOCKTON CA 95206 <br /> RE : K&S Gas and Grocery <br /> 701 E Charter Way <br /> Stockton , CA <br /> San Joaquin County Public Health Services , Environmental Health Division has <br /> reviewed the above referenced site because of the investigation of the former <br /> Darpetro Exxon station at 749 E Charter Way. <br /> The investigation of the Darpetro site has progressed to the characterization of the <br /> offsite portion of the plume , down gradient (the downstream direction of ground water <br /> flow) to the east, and up gradient (the upstream direction of ground water flow) to the <br /> west, of the site . Your site is located west of the Darpetro site . Data from the <br /> western most well at the Darpetro site , BM-9 , suggests the presence of an offsite <br /> plume migrating down gradient onto the Darpetro site . The closest suspect source <br /> up gradient of the Darpetro site is the ARCO station at 701 E Charter Way. <br /> To eliminate the possibility that the ARCO station is the source of this up gradient <br /> plume it will be necessary for you to begin a subsurface investigation to characterize <br /> contamination of soil and ground water. If contamination is encountered in the soil , <br /> your site will be placed in the LOP program , and PHS/EHD will require additional <br /> characterization and remediation of the contamination . If soil contamination is not <br /> encountered , then your site will be eliminated as a possible source for the suspected <br /> up gradient plume at the Darpetro site . <br /> Since it is in your best interest to eliminate your site as a suspect site , and since you <br /> are the currently registered underground tank operator, the investigation will be at <br /> your expense . If your site is placed in the LOP program you will be eligible for <br /> reimbursement from the state reimbursement fund for up to $999 , 999 . You will be <br /> responsible for paying a deductible of $5 , 000 or $ 10 , 000 depending on your financial <br /> status when you become eligible for the cleanup fund reimbursement. <br /> A Division of San Joayuin County Health Care Services <br />
