reportedly was closed in 1960, per Mr. Robert McClellon, County of San Joaquin, Public
<br />Health Services, Environmental Health Division (EHD), LEA, and subsequently subdivided
<br />into parcels and sold. The length of time that waste disposal operations occurred is not
<br />known, although it is suspected that the gravel pits began to be filled with wastes shortly
<br />after gravel mining ceased (1940) and ended before the property was subdivided (1960).
<br />Bill Lane IDS
<br />The Bill Lane IDS is a 10 -acre property, generally square in. shape. The site is bounded to
<br />the north by the Lynch IDS, to the east by Santa Fe Road, private developed property on
<br />the south, and the BNSF railroad on the west. Per LEA inspection reports, the property was
<br />observed to be poorly graded with inadequate drainage control. Based on review of LEA
<br />inspection reports, wastes were observed at the site and included household refuse, tires,
<br />roofing shingles, landscape debris, concrete, several old trucks, car parts, appliances, and
<br />farm equipment. As observed on May 1, 2001 during a site visit by the LEA and CIWMB
<br />staff, along the western property boundary, several mounds were observed that had been
<br />excavated by trenching. Evidence of construction and demolition wastes was observed in
<br />the trenches that traversed these mounds. Yard waste was observed near the center of the
<br />property. The property is owned by Jon W. Beard, P.O. Box 739, Empire, CA, 95319.
<br />LynchlDS
<br />The Lynch IDS is a 16.08 -acre parcel, triangular in shape, with the apex at the northern
<br />point. The site is bounded by Santa Fe Road on the east, by the Bill Lane IDS on the south,
<br />and by the BNSF railroad on the west. Per LEA inspection reports, the property was
<br />observed to be poorly graded with inadequate drainage control. The inspection reports
<br />indicated trenches were excavated parallel to the eastern and southern property boundaries
<br />and across the northern apex of the site. Reportedly these trenches were to prevent access
<br />to the property. A review of LEA records identified wastes observed on the Lynch IDS to be
<br />similar to wastes observed at the adjacent Bill Lane IDS. Based on LEA records, observed
<br />wastes included household garbage, tires, roofing shingles, brush, concrete, several old
<br />trucks, car parts, appliances, and farm equipment. Additionally, per the State of California
<br />Department of Public Health Bureau of Vector Control November 21, 1956 document,
<br />earlier disposal at the Lynch IDS associated with the former SSDS included the disposal of
<br />municipal solid waste and peach/apricot pits. The property is currently owned by Delta
<br />Funding, LTD, PTP, c/o Cal State Home Loans, P.O. Box 7636, Stockton, CA 95207.

<br />visit, the property is poorly graded and generally flat with inadequate drainage control. The
