January 15, 1993 RECEIVED Public Health Services �A� Environmental Health Division 19 1993 P. 0. Box 2009 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH STOCKTON, CA 95201 PERMIT/SERVICES RE: Clements Automotive Service, 18633 E.Hwy 88, Clements. We refer to your letter of July 3 , 1992 in which you state in the second last paragraph that we should contact Cal--Trans to clear up who owns the land on which the 350 gal . tank was unearthed on November 6, 1990 . We are sending you herewith copy of letter received from The State of California Department of Transportation, in which they declare that the tank was effectively on Cal Trans property, because the new water installations where the tank was found, were also on their property. In reference to your letter of December 4, 1992 , please be advised that we are well aware of our liabilities and responsibilities at the site and have managed a clean and contaminant free shop during the three years it has been in operation under our ownership. No gasoline dispensers or tanks were installed or used in that period. County inspectors have given us constantly favorable reports. We have taken due note of your request to notify you of any changes in report content, future contamination findings or site usage. The present status as we see it is: The 4 tanks did not leave any contaminants in the ground. The 1 tank unearthed November 1990 was not on our property. Since we must assume there will no longer be any reason for you to give prospective buyers a negative report on this property, we are contacting several persons who are interested in purchasing the business and property, to continue using it as an automobile repair shop. They have stated previously that their purchase is contingent on receiving a clean bill of health from you. Yours sincerely, Clifford A. Huber cc: Betty Moreno Terry Brazell
