TO: FROM: DATE: RE: • • San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department 600 East Main Street Stockton, California 95202-3029 Website: www.sjgov.org/ehd Phone: (209) 468-3420 Fax: (209) 464-0138 David Irey, Supervising Deputy District Attorney San Joaquin County District Attorney's Office Environmental Prosecution Unit Donna Heran, REHS, Director San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department December 15, 2010 Parkwoods Gas & Food 1612 W Hammer Lane Stockton, CA 95209 I. CASE SUMMARY DIRECTOR Donna Heran, REHS PROGRAM COORDINATORS Robert McClellon, REHS Jeff Carruesco, REHS, RDI Kasey Foley, REHS Linda Turkatte, REHS Parkwoods Gas and Food is a gasoline dispensing facility with an underground storage tank (UST) system consisting of a 12,000 -gallon UST that stores 87 -octane gasoline, an 8,000 -gallon UST that stores 91 -octane gasoline, and a 4,000 -gallon UST that stores diesel. The 12,000 -gallon UST is a one -compartment tank and the remaining two tanks are each part of a two-compartment tank. On August 11, 2009, Mr. Garrett Backus, Senior Registered Environmental Health Specialist (RENS), San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (EHD), performed a routine underground storage tank system inspection (Attachment 1) and witnessed the annual monitoring system certification, leak detector testing, and spill container testing. The piping sump secondary line test boots for all three tanks were found not removed, preventing any potential piping leaks from flowing into the sump. The monitoring system certification, due by July 2009, was performed one month late. The 87 -octane and 91 -octane line leak detectors failed the annual test and were replaced during the inspection. One float and chain device on dispenser #3, used to stop the flow of fuel at the dispenser when a leak is detected, was not operational and was repaired during the inspection. Mr. Backus also noted on the inspection report that six-month testing for secondary containment components previously installed on April 15, 2009, were due by October 15, 2009. Photos were taken during the inspection (Attachment 2). The monitoring system certification test report was submitted (Attachment 3) but contained some discrepancies. Mr. Backus sent an email to the tester, Mr. Robert Barnhart, asking for a corrected version (Attachment 4 and 5). On August 12, 2009, a permit application, SR0058040, was submitted for the 87 -octane and 91 -octane leak detectors replaced during the monitoring system certification the previous day. Mr. Backus approved the permit the following day (Attachment 6).
