<br />Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (Central Valley Water Board) staff have
<br />reviewed the 31 August 2017 Response to RWQCB Letter Dated 26 April 2018 (August 2017
<br />Response Letter) and 17 February 2015 letter titled Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons, Dopaco
<br />Area (February 17 TPH Evaluation Letter), submitted on your behalf by Geosyntec Consultants
<br />(Geosyntec), in association with the Dopaco Case #3 unauthorized underground storage tank
<br />(UST) release located at 800 West Church Street in Stockton (Site). The August 2017
<br />Response Letter and February 17 TPH Evaluation Letter provide information in support of the
<br />claim that Dopaco, Inc. (Dopaco), formerly a subsidiary of Cascades, Inc. (Cascades) neither
<br />stored, handled, or used gasoline, diesel, or any other chemicals of concern (COCs;
<br />1,4-dichlorobenzene, 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, acetone, carbon disulfide,
<br />cis-1,2-dichloroethene, di-isopropyl ether, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, hexachlorobutadiene,
<br />isopropyl benzene, naphthalene, tert-butyl benzene, and vinyl chloride) associated with Case
<br />#3.
<br />In consideration of the claims made by Cascades in the August 2017 Response Letter and
<br />February 17 TPH Evaluation Letter, Central Valley Water Board staff requests that these
<br />documents be resubmitted under a single cover containing the following statement:
<br />"I certify (or declare) under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California
<br />that the foregoing is true and correct':
<br />[signature and date lines]
<br />This attestation must be signed by a legally authorized Cascades representative with first-hand
<br />knowledge of Dopaco's operations and materials-management practices during Dopaco's
<br />tenancy at the Site. Along with the above statement, please also provide a discussion of any
<br />known, historical spills or releases of any of the above-mentioned COCs at the Site during that
<br />same period.
