Dear Ms. Lettmann:
Information received by this office of the UST Section, Division of Waste Management, on June 19, 1992

referenced location. Records indicate that you were the owner or operator of this UST system. This letter
explains the violation(s) and associated corrective action(s) you must take as a result of the release or

civil penalties for continuing violations.
Penalties may be assessed for the violation(s) described within this Notice of Violation. Your prompt
attention to the items described herein is required. Failure to comply with the State's rules, in the manner
and time specified, may result in the assessment of additional civil penalties and/or the use of other
enforcement mechanisms available to the State. Each day that a violation continues may be considered a
separate violation.
