Dear Mayor Pangallo:
On behalf of our client, Prolerized New England Company, LLC (PNE), Tetra Tech, Inc. is providing this

Involvement Plan (PIP) site with the LSP for the Ingemi Trusts and Trustees, who are Potentially Responsible
Parties (PRPs) under the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP) and the Massachusetts Superfund,
Chapter 21 E. On October 10, 2024, PNE received a letter dated October 8, 2024 from the Salem City
Solicitor forwarding a copy of the petition. PNE is also a PRP, and has agreed with the Ingemi PRPs to
perform future MCP response actions, under reservation of rights to seek recovery of all response costs from
the PRPs. The Trustees have performed initial response actions with its LSP at the sites.
PNE hereby designates the above-referenced disposal sites as a PIP site in accordance with the MCP. As
required by the MCP, this Designation is made within 20 days of PNE's receipt of the petition. PNE will
prepare and implement a final PIP plan under full reservation of its rights to seek recovery of response costs
from the Ingemi and other PRPs.
In accordance with the MCP (310 CMR 40.1405(5)), the following deadlines are applicable to the PIP Site:
