Box 2009 <br />Stockton, CA 95201 <br />MAY 2 5 19473. <br />SAN JOAQUIN LOCAL <br />, <br />'HEALTH DISTRICT <br />Re; California Clay Pit, McKinley Avenue <br />Dear Don: <br />At the request of the District, and also the Regional Water <br />Pollution Board, we have laid open a section of the Pit in the <br />area where Learner Co. is dumping restricted Class II material' <br />(i.e., non -liquid and non-organic). This excavation is twelve <br />feet in depth from bottom surface of present level. <br />We request that your good self, or agent, and one of the <br />field men for the Regional Board please visit the pit and examine <br />the lithology as presently exposed. <br />You will note that it is solid tight clay the whole additional <br />twelve feet. In addition we have previously supplied you data <br />from the well adjacent to the pits northwest corner, showing a <br />depth from ground level to standing water of forty-eight feet. - <br />Ergo the chances of polluting the underground water strata is <br />minimal if restricted Class II material or Class III material is <br />dumped. And, of course, air pollution from this type of material <br />is minimal since there is no decay, smell, etc. <br />s; rirA-rim I _ <br />JCD:dmn <br />cc: Mr. Steven Macaulay, <br />Calif.
