Re: 
Excavation at Western Auto, Tutu Wells Site, St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands
Dear Ms. Kwan:
This letter serves to update you regarding activities at the Western Auto site in Tutu,
U.S. Virgin Islands. The work is scheduled to commence on May 10, 1994 and will consist of
soil excavation and pipe repair. The excavation dimensions will be 4-feet by 4-feet by 7-feet
deep, rather than the initial proposed depth of 15-feet deep (i.e., depth to top of bedrock). This
modification is necessary because the depth of the excavation must be less than 9-feet deep to
maintain structural support for nearby building foundations.
Once the soil has been excavated, it will be used as backfill for the excavation. This is
in accordance with the telephone conversation on April 28, 1994 involving Thomas Danahy, the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and U.S. Virgin Islands Department of
Planning and Natural Resources (DPNR).
