CLEANUP AND ABATEMENT OFR NO. R5-2007-0725 DOLLY MADISON/LANGENDORF BAKERY 1426 S. LINCOLN ST.. STOCKTON SAN JOAGUIN COUNTY -2- 3. Based on San Joaquin County Grant Deed dated 11 August 1982, the estate of Edith L. Freeman deeded the property to Frances Friedman Levin. Based on San Joaquin County Individual Grant Deed dated 27 May 1988, Frances Friedman Levin deeded the property to the Frances Friedman Levin Trust (Trust). On 27 July 1988, IBC removed the UST system. Based on San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) records, the Trust was dispersed in 1989. The Trust is not subject to this Order because although the Trust owned the property at 1426 S. Lincoln St., Stockton, leased the property to IBC at the time of the release, and had knowledge of the discharge and ability to control access to the property during the period of ownership, the Trust is no longer in existence. 4. Based on San Joaquin County Grant Deed dated 12 April 1989, Richard L. Greene, Successor Trustee of the Frances Friedman Levin Trust, dispersed the Trust and granted Lorrie Greene the property. The Regional Board file also contains a property lease from Lorrie Greene to tenant IBC, which was in effect through June 1991. Lorrie Greene is subject to this Order because she previously owned the property at 1426 S. Lincoln St., Stockton, and leased the property to IBC, had knowledge of IBC's efforts to investigate the discharge, and had the ability to control access to the property during the period of ownership. 5. Based on the San Joaquin County Grant Deed dated 22 March 1999, Lorrie Greene transferred title to the Temple of Deliverance Church of God in Christ (TODCOGIC). On 17 May 2007, former pastor Jason Hunt responded in writing that the TODCOGIC disbanded in 2002 and sold the property in 2004, although the deed says TODCOGIC sold the property in 2003. TODCOGIC is subject to this Order because TODCOGIC previously owned the property at 1426 S. Lincoln St., Stockton, had knowledge of IBC's efforts to investigate the discharge, and had the ability to control access to the property during the period of ownership. 6. Based on a review of business records on file with the California Secretary of State, TODCOGIC was never incorporated as a California Religious Nonprofit Corporation, as required by Cal. Corporations Code § 9130. In a phone conversation on 7 Aug 2007, the Northern California First Jurisdiction Church of God in Christ professed no knowledge of the TODCOGIC congregation. No certificate of dissolution was ever filed on TODCOGIC's behalf with the California Secretary of State, as required by Cal. Corporations Code § 6611. In the absence of all nonprofit corporate records, Jason Hunt will be held personally liable for the actions of TODCOGIC. Jason Hunt is thereby subject to this Order because of his imputed ownership of the property at 1426 S. Lincoln St., Stockton, his imputed knowledge of IBC's efforts to investigate the discharge, and his imputed ability to control access to the property during the period of ownership. The Executive Officer may elect to relieve Jason Hunt of all liability upon a showing that TODCOGIC properly assumed possession of the property as a duly registered California Religious Nonprofit Corporation.
