As you may be <br /> aware, the Califiornia Departm�nt of Toxic Substances Contro( {QTSC) oversess ±he <br /> cleanup of sites where hazardous substances have been reieased pursuant to the <br /> California Health and Safety Cade, Division 20, Chapter 6.8. As a Responsible Agency, <br /> DTSC is submitting camments to ensure that the environmental documentation <br /> prepared for this project to address the Cali#omia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) <br /> adequately addresses any remediation o#hazardous substance releases that may be <br /> necessary. <br /> Historic uses of the property are not provided so no determinatior� can be made <br /> regarding oti�er potential contaminants of concern. Based on the informatian provic{ec1, <br /> it is unciear whether adequate sampling has been conducted for contaminants other <br /> #han petroleum. Because no other sampling results have been provided, it is also not <br /> appropriate #o make a determinatian regarding the suitabifity of excavated soil for reuse. <br /> � In the Hydrology and Water Quality section the report states that if the project was <br /> modifiied to include residential accupation of the sub-grade basement level that a soi! <br /> vapor survey will be conducted. DTSC recommends tha# if a soil vapor survey is <br /> conducted that any impact associated with the survey be addressed in the CEQA <br /> documents. <br /> DTSC can assist yaur agency in overseeing characterization and cleanup activities <br /> through our Voluntary Cleanup Program. A fact shee# describing this program is <br /> enclosed. We are aware tha# projects such as this one a�e typically on a campressed <br /> schedule, and in an effort to use the avai(able review time efficiently, we request that <br /> DTSC be included in any meetings where issues relevant to our statutory authority are <br /> discussed. <br /> � Prinled on Recycled Paper <br />
