agency, Mr. Guinta's other assets, his small cafe and catering business in Manteca, CA, nets about $17,000.00 per year. After dividing that number by his hours at work Mr. Guinta is paid about minimum wage at his small business enterprise. Hardly an amount associated with a charge sufficient to make a dent in the requirement of this project as outlined by your latest endeavors and the past history of the expense of the project. Mr. Guinta has informed your agency before that you may review his records, and you are welcome to review the books and his tax records for such verification now as well. Mr. Guinta elects not to place them here as an attachment for obvious reasons, but your agency may review them upon request at any time. The small business of Mr. Guinta is due to his small positive net income, results in a value of little consequence in the aggregate amounts of proposed expenditures of this matter. It could not be sold for several reasons, and if it could be sold, the value would be so small it could not be expected to help in any real meaningful way towards a payback of liens, penalties, and the like which are currently being ordered and or considered by your agency. Mr. Guinta has no retirement accounts, no pensions except for future Social Security benefits,just a small equity in his personal residence, etc. The other assets of his are just three small payment notes of about $900.00 per month which are declining in value as the notes thereon amortize downward. If you add the $17,000.00 per year with the$900.00 per month of these three small notes, he has a monthly income of approximately$2,100.00 per month; which is before taxes. Additionally, Mr. Guinta has a income from the present lease with Mr. Kim of the One Stop, which after payment to the bank on the loan, gives him about$4,600.00 total to live on. His expenses for his medical insurance alone is over$1,000.00 per month; which must be maintained at all cost due to his failing health issues. I bring all this out because of the lack of consideration that Mr. Guinta feels your agency has expressed in the past, both articulated and implied, as to his financial conditions. Mr. Guinta requests your agency to take into consideration his financial condition in finalization of this matter and as to the current orders in place as well, which by this submission are being requested to be modified to reflect a more proportion approach for all concerned. Further, as you know, Mr. Guinta and Sharri Guinta are divorced. Last year Mr. Guinta turned over records indicating that Mrs. Guinta had no money to speak of either. Therefore, Mrs. Guinta as a co- discharger cannot help alleviate the vast expense associated with the current orders and requested adjustments by your agency. Mrs. Guinta is a wage earner making approximately$34,000.00 per year gross. Just enough to sustain her in some form of pleasantries of our modem society. Therefore, lawful consideration of the income and relative net equities of the parties should be considered as a factor in any decision you make as to future remedial and monitoring events. Clearly, the law does not want, demand or even ask that parties become abject destitute to resolve an discharge issue that has been essentially taken care of and with a little assistance from nature and some season will be taken care of. It should be also noted, and has been discussed with your agency prior to this submission, that the City of Manteca has already placed an activated city water line way past Airport Way on West Yosemite Avenue and now has an additional water line north of Yosemite on Airport at 100 feet to date. There are plans to continue the line north on Airport,which will besiege the "plWpe", thereby allowing all persons associated with this matter the right to have city water in t11p np4r future. Tbere is already a line available at Crom and North Airport Streets. The City of 6
