Kettleman Road <br /> Lodi CA, 95240 <br /> RE: Ag Waste Feed Yard Permit <br /> This letter is to further document the non-compliance status of this facility. On August 6, 2001,an <br /> inspection of the facility was conducted. There were several issues noted during the inspection: <br /> • The facility was accepting peach pits, which were suppose to be dried and taken to a co-generation <br /> plant for processing <br /> • The peach pits are considered a solid waste, and the dairy is not permitted to accept the peach pits <br /> • The permit fees had not been paid and that the facility was/is operating without a permit. <br /> During our conversation,I indicated that the fees had doubled due to penalties. You explained that you <br /> would pay the fees, but felt that you should not be charged a penalty because you were a new tenant and <br /> never received a bill. I indicated that I would waive the penalties if you would come in and pay the <br /> permit fees; however, the fees were not paid and the facility continued to accept cannery waste. I checked <br /> with our accounting department and they indicated that the facility has been sent three separate bills <br /> regarding the monies owed for the permit. The delinquent account will be turned over to collections. <br /> The facility does not have a permit and cannot accept cannery waste. You are directed to discontinue <br /> accepting any cannery waste immediately. Failure to comply with this letter will result in further legal <br /> action by the Environmental Health Division. In order to accept cannery waste you must make <br /> application and submit a site plan along with $178.00 for plan check. Once the plan is approved the <br /> permit fee of$156.00 will be required prior to accepting any waste. An application package is enclosed. <br /> If you have any questions in regard to this letter, please contact Robert McClellon of my staff at at(209) <br /> 468-0332 <br /> Karen Furst,M.D.,M.P.H. <br /> Health Officer <br /> Robert McClellon,Lea Senior REHS <br /> Environmental Health Division <br /> Enclosures <br /> A Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services <br />
