Basically, all 4 wells show a significant increase in <br />sulfate since 1991. Whether this is due to MSC activities is <br />inconclusive without further investigation. If the Port is satisfied <br />with this result and understands that as landowner, it retains any <br />future liability for the problem, I would be willing to allow the wells <br />to be abandoned. <br />I will be travelling next week, but may be able to check voice mail and <br />return calls on Mon. Nov. 10. Otherwise, I'll be back in the office on <br />Nov. 17. <br />Wendy L.

I am <br />sure you are back in the swing of things after you got back to the <br />office recently. <br />Just wanted to check in with you regarding the status of the <br />closure of Metropolitan Stevedore Company's current monitoring wells. <br />We have not received any comments from your office or the San Joaquin <br />County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) on our sampling and <br />analysis report (SAR) for these wells. <br />On behalf of Metropolitan Stevedore Company (MSC), I wanted to let <br />you know that MSC is now experiencing time delays and economic losses as <br />the result of not being able to close these wells in place and give this <br />leased parcel of land to its owner, Port of Stockton. <br />MSC has expended a great deal of time, effort, cost, and has <br />responded to the CVRWQCB and the SJCEHD request relative to the sampling <br />and analysis of these wells to date. In addition, MSC has gone above <br />and beyond the regulatory requirements to effectuate the CVRWQCB and the <br />SJCEHD requests by sampling and analyzing ground water samples from <br />these wells. Hence, on behalf of MSC, I would respectfully request that <br />a " no further actions" letter is issued to MSC ASAP so the subject <br />wells can be properly closed in place by filing a well destruction <br />permit with the SJCEHD. So, the above mentioned leased land can be <br />given back to the land owner. PLEASE ADVISE. <br />Thank <br />you <br />Jay <br />Jay R.
