BOx 2009 Stockton, CA 95201 <br />RE: Marlowe Properties <br />4630-4698 E. Waterloo Road <br />Dear Ms. Hinson: <br />I appreciated the opportunity to speak with you last <br />week concerning both the current investigation of <br />Sweet's Tinware, our tenant at 4638-B E. Waterloo <br />Road, as well as the larger issues facing us <br />concerning the HVOC contamination of the groundwater <br />in our area. I received the faxed copy of the lab <br />results of the first of two lab samples taken from the <br />Sweet's septic tank. I have enclosed the signed <br />Public Records Release Application covering that <br />document. <br />During our conversation you suggested that we meet in <br />order to share information and discuss the next steps <br />in your investigation. I would welcome meeting with <br />you for this purpose. As I indicated, I have been <br />frustrated by the unwillingness of your Division to <br />share information vital to our efforts to determine <br />the source of the HVOC contaminants. My recent visit <br />to the Office of Emergency Services produced a great <br />deal of data concerning the chemicals acknowledged to <br />be on site both on our property and adjoining <br />properties. Apparently, you have not been able to <br />obtain this data from OES so I have enclosed copies of <br />the pertinent pages from "1993 Chemical Inventory" <br />lists from our neighbors. I will bring along the <br />complete inventory lists to our meeting. <br />In our dealings with your Division over the past five <br />years we have tried to maintain an open and <br />cooperative partnership in our attempts to identify <br />and remediate the contamination problems originating <br />from the underground storage tank. After over a year <br />of strenous effort, we recently succeeded in having <br />the State Water Resources Control Board correct <br />mistakes made by the Underground Storage Tank Clean-Up <br />Fund staff in their priority determination. The <br />result will be the release by the end of the year of <br />clean-up funds which will enable us to fully remediate <br />the petroleum contamination problems on our property.
