Luces, R.E.H.S. <br /> San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department <br /> 304 E. Weber Avenue, 3rd Floor <br /> Stockton, CA 95202-2708 <br /> SUBJECT: Acid Discharge Remediation at the Acid Day Tank Facility <br /> Dear Ms Luces: <br /> In response to the "Notice to Abate" issued on July 31, 2006, with regard to the sulfuric acid leak at the <br /> day tank facility, I am pleased to report that the contents in the acid tank have been removed in <br /> preparation for subsequent repairs to the tank. <br /> On July 28, 2006 at 02:17 a.m., OMI/Thames Water personnel notified your offices of an acid spill at the <br /> City of Stockton's Regional Water Reclamation Facility. The volume of the spill was later determined to <br /> be approximately 200 gallons of 93% sulfuric acid. The spilled material was contained within the facility's <br /> treatment system. <br /> A contractor, PSC, was retained by OMI/Thames Water to remediate the remaining acid in the day tank. <br /> The neat acid was pumped into tote containers; the tank was then rinsed prior to inspection by <br /> OMI/Thames Water's maintenance forces. Upon completion of the work, there were no residuals in the <br /> tank. The contractor completed the work on August 1, 2006 circa 09:00 a.m. <br /> If you have any questions regarding this subject, please contact Mr. Greg White at (209) 937-8757. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Tony Stanbridge <br /> General Manager <br /> Attachments <br /> cc: G.
