Santa Fe Road (APN 249-060-14) <br />SRI <br />The Public Health Services, Environmental Health Division (P S-EHD) appreciates the <br />effort that you made to investigate the dumpsite located on the property referenced above. <br />This letter is a follow-up from the site visits that occurred on July 27, August 1 and <br />August 4 and an assessment of the current site status. <br />PHS-EHD received a plan to conduct a limited site assessment marked as "Clean Up <br />Proposal". The plan indicated that the area adjacent to the railroad access road would <br />have five trenches excavated in the east- west direction. The plan also indicated that the <br />trenches would be 8 feet in depth. The limited site assessment was an attempt to <br />determine the magnitude of the cleanup that is necessary to resolve the outstanding non- <br />compliance issues at the site. <br />I conducted the site visits on July 27, August 1, and August 4. During the site visits Frank <br />Atkins, Richard Miller or Roger Hartley were onsite. It was noted during the visits that <br />trenches were excavated in the area adjacent to the railroad access road. This is the area <br />previously documented as having waste illegally disposed of y the previous owner Bill <br />Lane. The trenching revealed waste that was consistent with a landfill. The trenches <br />contained concrete, asphalt, brick, wood, ash, household waste, transite pipe, an old fuel <br />tank, a boiler tank, and metal waste. During the site visits pictures were taken to <br />document the debris that were uncovered (see attached). <br />The PHS-EHD requires a cleanup of the site and removal of all buried solid waste for the <br />protection of public health and the environment. To conduct a clean up a work plan needs <br />to be submitted, to PHS-EHD, for approval prior to beginning any clean up effort. The <br />work plan must include, but not limited to the following: <br />• A general description of the work to be done on site (excavation and separation of the <br />waste) <br />Z 228 988 779 <br />US Postal Service <br />Receipt for Certified Mail <br />FRANKLIN ATKINS <br />196 TIFFANY CIRCLE <br />RIPON CA 95366 l Division of San Joaquin County Health Care Services <br />ATTACHMENT R <br />
