Infurna, Jr. <br /> San Joaquin County <br /> Environmental Health Department <br /> 600 East Main Street <br /> Stockton, California 95202 <br /> Re: UST Cleanup Fund Letter of Commitment Suspension <br /> Palisades Gas and Wash Service Station No. 835 <br /> 2705 Country Club Boulevard <br /> Stockton, California <br /> Site No. 1072, RO No. 1504 <br /> Dear Mr. Infurna: <br /> On behalf of Palisades Gas & Wash, Inc. (PG&W), Stratus Environmental, Inc. (Stratus) has <br /> prepared this letter to bring to your attention a recent letter from the State Water Resources <br /> Control Board, Division of Financial Assistance (Cleanup Fund,) dated October 23, 2008, and <br /> the potential implications of the letter on the ongoing environmental activities at the former <br /> PG&W Service Station No. 835, located at 2705 Country Club Boulevard, Stockton, California. <br /> This property is listed as one of the over six hundred claims that have been deemed "lower <br /> priority" by the Cleanup Fund and for which the letter of commitment (LOC) will be suspended <br /> in the near future (according to the Cleanup Fund's Suspended USTCF Priority C Claims <br /> spreadsheet). <br /> PG&W Station 835 is located in close proximity to two other properties with documented <br /> petroleum hydrocarbon impact to the subsurface-(7-11 Station-located at 2725 Country Club <br /> Boulevard, and former Shell Station located at 2575 Country Club Boulevard). A relatively <br /> large number of groundwater monitoring wells have been installed at each service station to <br /> enable monitoring of groundwater impact across several groundwater intervals within the <br /> subsurface. <br /> The claim applicant and responsible party (PG&W) for this property has very limited means of <br /> financing the large costs of completing environmental compliance activities relating to the <br /> environmental case. If these activities are to continue, PG&W has no choice but to rely upon the <br /> Cleanup Fund for assistance with financing future environmental-related work. Based upon the <br /> financial and technical reasons cited here, Stratus and PG&W do not agree that this site should <br /> be deemed low priority. <br /> KAUSA Gasoline\0835\Correspondence\usa835 letter re LOC Suspension Oct 2008.doc <br />
