The WPAHG met with the Trustees in 2016 and 2017 to discuss potential restoration projects. In addition to supporting the City's interest in WPAHG negotiations, Integral has been completing the groundwork to support "BIRD allocation decisions. Integral reconstructed the Trustees damages assessment model to allow for evaluation of natural resource damages by area of the WPAH and by chemical.

Work slowly ramped up through 2016,and level of effort in 2017 has increased substantially over 2015 work. Under the direction of Foster Pepper, Integral has been supporting allocation activities with the WPAf IG and, possibly, other potentially responsible parties. In 2018, Integral anticipates continuing work on tasks outlined in Amendment 5, approved in 2016, as well as working on new tasks. In August 2017, Amendment 6 was approved to expand the allocation scope of work. The following task descriptions outline work for 2018. Subtask 1. Project Management and Meetings Subtask I covers routine administrative tasks to support the allocation and NRDA work, technical team coordination and management, and general project meetings. Anticipated project meetings include: 1. Biweekly team calls between Foster Pepper and Integral to discuss ongoing work and action items 2. Off-week calls with a smaller legal/technical team to discuss action items 3. Quarterly meetings with City staff, Foster Pepper,and Integral. For budgeting purposes we've assumed four meetings will occur in Seattle. 4. One meeting in 2018 with the insurance carriers. The estimated budget for this allocation task is$50,000 in 201.8. Subtask 2. Information Management Document Management Integral will continue to review documents and other information relevant to the allocation of liability at WPAH. Integral Consulting Inc. Integral Scope and Budget September 2017 Page 4 of 7 Data Management Integral maintains a copy of the Western Port Angeles I larbor Rl/FS database. The data have been formatted for use with the Integral Data Analyst(IDA) system. This subtask task covers keeping IDA up to date with new sediment data, formatting and loading newly acquired aerial photos, loading CIS files from Floyd I Snider(prime consultant for the RI/FS), and managing other key attributes such as locations of historical facilities. CIS shapefiles developed by Integral through the course of allocation research and added to IDA will be tracked under this task. The estimated budget for all of allocation Task 2 is$125,000. Subtask 3. Facility Research Integral will conduct facility research that includes information related to ownership, operations, industrial processes,related chemicals, pathways to the harbor, spills,and environmental investigations to support preparation of allocation positions. The estimated 2018 budget for this allocation task is$125,000. Subtask 4. Quantitative Analyses Integral conducted forensic analyses in 2016-2017 to analy7e, contaminants of concern and their sources at the WPAIS site,including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)and dioxins/furans. Followup work is anticipated. The estimated budget for all of allocation Task 4 is$40,000. Subtask 5. Fate and Transport The distribution of contaminants in sediments is affected by the location of the source, the quantity of material released,and physical transport and sedimentation processes. Understanding these processes is critically important for developing evidence of specific sources. Integral has reviewed the available conceptual site models(CSMs)of sediment transport developed for WPAH,as well as other available information. Work anticipated for 2018 involves reviewing any newly found information on sediment transport. Integral Consii1ting Inc. Integral Scope and Budget September 2017 Page 5 of 7 The estimated budget for this allocation task is$40,000. Subtask 6.

The estimated budget for this allocation task is$200,000. Subtask 7. Research Regarding Aquatic Leases and In-Water Structures Aquatic lands in Port Angeles 1-larbor have been leased from the state for log rafting and other purposes. 'rhe leasehold history can be complex and is documented in a variety of resources. Integral will continue to research available aquatic leases and water structures.

Evaluation of Air Emissions Hog fuel boilers have been identified as major sources of dioxins/furans to the WPAH. Integral has compiled some information on historical boilers including locations, stack height,and material burned. Additional information on combustion temperatures and control measures uses,as well as wind patterns, will be reviewed by Integral. Integral will summarize evidence of pollutants released to the air and their potential impact to sediment areas in WPAH distant from the original source. Hog fuel boilers will also be investigated as a source of cPAFfs to the harbor. The estimated budget for this allocation task is$40,00101. TASK 500. ALLOCATION STRUCTURE PARTICIPATION Integral anticipates that allocation activities with the WPAH Group will begin in spring 2018 after submittal of the Draft Final RI/FS to Ecology.
