ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTING SERVICES 204 LAFAYETTE STREET SALEM, MA 01970 (508)745-6618 FAX (508) 741-8648 May 10, 1990 To: Mr. Bruce McDonald Salem Y.M.C.A. 1 Sewall Street Salem, Mass 01970 Subject: Site Assessment Relative to M.G. L.Chapter 21E 1 Sewall Street Salem, MA Dear Mr. McDonald: The Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc. of Salem, Massachusetts is pleased to submit this Site Assessment Summary relative to the current provisions of Massachusetts General Law (M.G.L.) Chapter 21E and all implementing regulations under said law for the property located at 1 Sewall Street in Salem, Massachusetts, here -in -after referred to as the "Site". The purpose of this investigation was to review the uses presently associated with the Site and, to the extent ascertainable by inquiry in the Assessment Summary, the uses previously associated with Site to determine whether or not oil or hazardous material is. being, or has been released at the Site as defined under M.G.L. Chapter 21E. The potential for the generation, use, treatment, storage and disposal of oil or hazardous material at the Site was considered during the investigation of the Site described herein which was conducted between April 6, and May 8,1990. The investigation included observations from a Site visit, a description of the property and abutting GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. properties, a review of the site history, information obtained from local and state officials and a limited subsurface investigation. Based upon the limited subsurface investigation and research information, evidence exists that a small quantity of petroleum may have been spilled into the groundwater in the area of the 10,000 gallon underground fuel oil storage tank at the Site. Also, a level of 158 mg/kg petroleum hydrocarbons was detected in a composited soil sample from surface samples at B1, B2, and B3. The 10,000 gallon tank is still in use and is reportedly least 25 years old. In addition, a 2,000 gallon underground fuel oil storage tank is located beneath the sidewalk on Essex Street. This tank also is still in use and is reportedly approximately 5 to 8 years old. A 55 -gallon drum of what may be used oil or an and -corrosion fluid was located in the boiler room of the building on the Site. Floor drains connecting to the City sewer system are located in the building. Two sump pumps are located in the building; one in the filter room and one in the boiler room. Material observed covering some pipes in the boiler room and filter room may have possible asbestos containing materials. Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc., therefore makes the following recommendations: 1) The DEP should be notified of the presence of the contamination in the groundwater and the soil. It may be appropriate to consider the contamination as originating as a result of a spill of less than 10 gallons. Although the levels of volatiles detected are wi[nrn drinking water standards, the DEP should determine if notification of the presence of these volatiles is necessary. Since the Site is located in a commercial area, the allowable level for petroleum hydrocarbons in the soil is 300 mg/kg. 2) The 10,000 gallon tank on the Site is at least 25 years old. It should be removed at the time of or prior to the excavation for the building addition according to all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations. The 2,000 gallon tank is currently used to store heating fuel for the Salem Housing Authority. This tank should be tightness tested on a routine to assure that it is not leaking. If it is no longer in use, it should be removed or made inert according to all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations. GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. 3) The 55 -gallon drum of what may be waste oil or and -corrosive material located in the boiler room of the building should be removed from the Site and disposed of properly by a licensed hazardous waste contractor in accordance with all applicable Federal, State, and local regulations. 4) The floor drains in the building should be regularly cleaned and maintained. The two sump pumps in the building should be periodically inspected for the presence of a sheen or other indications of oil or hazardous materials. 5) The areas of suspected asbestos material should be monitored and repaired as necessary under direction of a certified asbestos inspector. Should you have any questions in regard to this matter please feel free to contact either me or my assistant, Jean Schwab.

INTRODUCTION This Site Assessment Summary has been prepared to present the results of an investigation to determine whether or not oil or hazardous material is being, or has been released on parcel of property in Salem, Massachusetts located at 1 Sewall Street and known as Lot 438, Salem Assessor s Map 26, hereinafter referred to as the "Site". The report includes observations from a site visit, a physical description of the Site and surrounding properties, information obtained from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, (formerly, DEQE), Salem Health Department, Salem Fire Department, the analytical testing of groundwater and soil samples, and, an assessment, based on this investigation, of whether or not oil or hazardous material is being, or has been released at the Site relative to M.G.L. Chapter 21E. SITE LOCATION The Site is situated on the west side of Sewall Street at the comer of Sewall Street and Essex Street within a downtown business zoned area of Metropolitan Salem as depicted in the Site Locus shown in Figure 1 of this report. Essex Street is a well traveled, two lane road with parking on both sides providing a route through downtown Salem. 4WDKW1-rAWXW11 013 VAIN 0 to] 91 The Site consists of 31,903 square feet of property and is depicted as Lot 438 Map number 26, on Figure 2 of this report (Salem Assessors Map), The Site is occupied by a building divided into three units. Unit one at 284 Essex Street contains retail space on the ground floor of the building occupying the Site; unit two at 290 Essex Street contains the third and part of the second floor of the building and is owned in part by the Salem Housing Authority; and unit three, currently occupied by the Y.M.C.A., is located at 1 Sewall Street. The remainder of the Site consists of an undeveloped area in the northwestern section of the Site, which is accessed by North Street. Utilities which service the Site include sewer, water, gas, and electricity. The building is heated by #2 fuel oil supplied by a 10,000 gallon underground heating oil storage tank, and a 2,000 gallon underground heating oil storage tank. GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. Surf icial Geology. Soils at the Site are classified by the US Soil Conservation Service as Urban Land. The Urban Land Soil Unit consists of nearly level to moderately steep areas from which the soils have been altered or obscured by urban works or structures. Typically buildings, paved areas, or industrial areas cover more than 75% of this soil unit. Topography and Drainage. The Site is located approximately 3,000 feet west of the of Salem Harbor within the North Coastal Drainage Basin. No surface water bodies are associated with the Site. Site topography is basically level and the property is situated within an elevation of 20 to 30 feet NGVD. Regionally, the topography gently slopes down gradient to the North River, located approximately 900 feet north of the Site. :_ : 1Ygilii.`LeZi tt � � �f The Site is located within a downtown business zoned area of Salem. The Site is abutted to the north (listed from west to east) by the Wesley Methodist Church (Lot 441; Figure 2), a three unit property (Lot 440; Figure 2), a two unit property (Lot 349; Figure 2) owned by Drew H. Romanovitz, and a parking area (Lot 439; Figure 2) owned by the City of Salem. West of the Site (Lot 442; Figure 2) is an undeveloped area owned by the Salem Y.M.C.A. Southwest of the Site is a two unit building (Lot 138; Figure 2) owned by Three Hundred Essex Street Trust. Across Essex Street, south of the Site, the abuttors are the Essex House Associates, Inc. (Lot 456; Figure 2). East of the Site across Seawall Street, (as listed from south to north) is a building (Lot 437; Figure 2) owned by James O. Brown, a parking lot (Lot 435; Figure 2) owned by the City of Salem, and a condominium building (Lot 434; Figure 2) with 36 listed owners. Information from the 1874 City of Salem Water Works Atlas indicates that the Site was occupied by private residences of the Heirs of William Hook and Mary A. Sanders. A building permit (#159) was issued on July 21, 1887 to construct the Y.M.C.A. building which occupies the Site. According to Mr. Bruce McDonald of the Salem Y.M.C.A., the building was completed in approximately 1906. On September 16, 1955 a permit (#336) was issued for an addition to the rear of the main building at 290 Essex Street. On January 10, 1974, a permit (#18) was issued for repairing windows, and for interior repairs. Permit (#165) dated June 24, 1974 was issued for the demolition of a one-story addition. 2 GULF Of MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. A permit (#138) for interior remodeling was issued on June 22, 1975. A permit (#412) for roof repairs was issued on January 12, 1980. Permits #53, #47, and #60, dated March 2, 1982, February 16, 1983 and February 28, 1984 respectively, were issued for interior renovations. In 1984, the property was divided into three units and made into condominiums. Unit 1, located at 284 Essex Street Condo houses retail store fronts with the Y.M.C.A. retaining a 10% interest. Unit 2, located at 290 Essex Street is fifty percent interest of the Y.M.C.A. and a fifty percent interest of the Salem Housing Authority. Unit 3, located at 288 Essex Street Condo at 1 Seawall Street, is an area where the Y.M.C.A. retains a 40% interest. Research was conducted with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), (formerly DEQE) and Salem Board of Health and Fire Department files on oil and hazardous wastes. On May 1, 1990 Mr. John Sullivan of the Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc. reviewed the files at the northeast regional office of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DED), Files for records of known releases of oil and/or hazardous materials as well as storage facilities and spill locations at or near the Site both completed and under investigation were inspected. The Site Assessment and Spills Databases revealed the following information with regard to properties in the vicinity of the Site: Address / Company Type or Priority North River/Salem Harbor, Rt 114 Hazardous materials 188 Essex Street/Development Group, Inc. #2 fuel oil Rear 36 Federal Street/Superior TSPN #2 fuel oil- 25-30 gals. 405 Essex Street/Coopers Garage Gas, diesel & waste oil 406 Essex Street/Litwin Motors Hazardous materials and petroleum I GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. No reports or complaints were on file relative to the Site. The North River is listed as a location to be investigated. The North River is approximately 900 ft. north and down gradient of the Site, therefore the hazardous materials release under investigation should not impact the Site. A spill of #2 fuel oil at 188 Essex Street was reported on November 4, 1986 and handled by Empro Services. The Site is to the west of this spill and should not be impacted. Superior Transportation on Bridge Street had a spill of 25 to 30 gallons of #2 fuel oil on September 19, 1988, with Zecco responding to the spill. Superior Transportation is located approximately 800 ft. northwest and down gradient from the Site; therefore this spill should not impact the Site. Information on file with the DEP identified Cooper's Garage, located approximately 1/2 mile southwest of the Site, as a location of gasoline and oil releases to the groundwater. A May 9, 1989, GMRC letter, sent to Brad Stewart of the Incident Response Division of the DEP, identified the presence of 60 cubic yards of oil contaminated soil being stockpiled within the building. Also, relatively high levels of volatile organic compounds were detected in a groundwater sample collected from a monitoring well installed inside the building. Due to the distance of this contamination !y� from the Site, it is not likely to impact the conditions of the Site. DEP files also contain information regarding the Litwins Motors (now A 1 Auto Brokers) property located approximately 1/2 mile southwest of the Site. The information identifies the excavation and on-site stockpiling of 125 cubic yards of gasoline contaminated soil, the removal of three underground storage tanks and a northerly direction for groundwater flow. The information goes on to state that up to one inch of free product was observed in monitoring wells installed on the property. Recommendations for this property included the removal of underground tanks, testing, removal and disposal of contaminated soil and the installation of a petroleum recovery system Due to the distance of this contamination from the Site, it is not likely to impact the conditions of the Site. Captain Robert Turner of the Salem Department of Fire Prevention was contacted on April 12, 1990 and reported on April 26, 1990, that the Site contains one 10,000 gallon capacity underground fuel oil storage tank. In addition, a 2,000 gallon capacity underground storage tank is located beneath the sidewalk at 288 Essex Street. The oil burner to this tank was serviced in 1982. Two underground storage tanks recently have been removed from nearby properties. On August 31, 1987, a 4,000 gallon capacity underground fuel oil storage tank was removed from the property at 289 Essex Street, 4 ' GULF 6F MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. located across the street from the Site and formerly occupied by the Salem Theater. On May 21, 1987, a 1,000 gallon capacity underground fuel oil tank was removed from the property at 281 Essex Street. This property houses Tompkin's Furniture, and is located southeast of the Site at the comer of Crombie Street and Essex Street. According to Mr. Bruce McDonald of the Y.M.C.A., the 10,000 gallon tank on the Y.M.C.A. property is approximately 25 years old and the 2,000 gallon underground fuel oil storage tank at 288 Essex Street is used by the Salem Housing Authority. According to Mr. Lee Smith of the Salem Housing Authority, the 2,000 gallon tank is 5 to 6 years old and is currently being used to store #2 fuel oil for heating the second and third floors of the building. SITE INSPECTION Jean Schwab of the Gulf of Maine Research Center, Inc., conducted a general visual reconnaissance of the Site and its vicinity on April 30, 1990, accompanied by Mr. Bruce McDonald of the Y.M.C.A. A visual inspection of the Site exterior was conducted. No items of environmental concern were observed, other than the existing 10,000 gallon underground heating fuel oil storage tank located on the Site and the 2,000 gallon underground heating fuel oil storage tank located beneath the sidewalk on Essex Street. The brick building housing the Y.M.C.A. contains three stories ::rd a basement. The third story and part of the second story of the building houses residential units for elderly housing (Stephen Zisson Elderly Housing Residence). Space on the first story of the building along Essex Street is leased to commercial businesses and offices. The Site building shares a common wall with the building to the west at 298 Essex Street. An undeveloped section of the Site property is located west of the building. This area occasionally is used to park vehicles. Concrete footings and the concrete slab of a former parking garage are exposed at the ground surface within this section of the Site. The remainder of this area is covered with gravel. No visual evidence of oil or hazardous materials was observed in this area. The existing 10,000 gallon underground heating fuel oil tank on the Site is located exterior to the western side of the building. The fill and vent pipes to the tank are located along this exterior wall. GULF CF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. PSI The site -building interior was also inspected The third floor of the building contains residential housing, the second floor contains residential housing and an indoor track, and the first floor contains offices, lobby area, and a 20 yard three -lane swimming pool. The basement contains the men's and women's locker rooms, a fitness room, recreational room, day care center, four weight rooms, boiler room, and filter room. The locker rooms contain saunas, showers, and bathrooms. Three floor drains were observed in the women's locker room floor, the floor drains did not appear to be clogged. The building interior is cleaned by Sunshine Janitorial of Salem, Mass. According to Mr. McDonald, the existing swimming pool was constructed in 1955. The original swimming pool is located beneath the existing pool. Chemicals currently used to treat the pool water include soda ash (to neutralize the water) chlorine (used as a disinfectant), and aluminum sulfate (used in the filter system). According to Mr. McDonald, mercuric acid formerly was used in the water treatment system. The chlorine is in concentrations in the pool ranging from 1.8 to 2.5 ppm and the pH is approximately 7.8. i Approximately 2.5 gallons of chlorine per day is used to treat the pool water. The pool water is continuously filtered and cleaned. The drains are located along the sides of the pool with a main drain in the center of the pool. Every few years, the pool is drained and cleaned; at this time, the water is released into the city sewer system. A 50 lb bag of soda ash and a 5 -gallon container of chlorine were observed stored within a locked wooden box on the ceramic tile floor. The filter room is located in the 'basement behind the pool area. No unusual odors were observed in the filter room. The floor in the filter room is concrete. A 50 lb bag of aluminum sulfate and eleven, 5 -gallon plastic containers of chlorine were observed stored on the concrete floor near the bottom of the stairway leading to the filter room. The metal pipes in the filter room showed evidence of corrosion, and the concrete walls appeared to have a rust colored hue. Chlorine is contained in an approximately 20 -gallon closed plastic container, where it is pumped through the swimming pool. The pool water is cleaned as it is pumped through the three enclosed sand filter systems in the filter room According to Mr. McDonald, aluminum sulfate is used on top of the sand in the filters. The filters are periodically backwashed; the aluminum sulfate in liquid form is discharged into the city sewer system, and the aluminum sulfate is replaced The interior of the sand filter systems were not visually inspected. No visible sheen was observed on the surface of the standing water in the sump pump located in the filter room. Material observed covering some pipes in the filter room may have possible asbestos containing materials. 6 GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. The boiler room also is located in the basement of the building. No unusual odors were observed in the boiler room. The steam boiler is approximately 20 years old, and the burner is approximately 5 years old. The domestic hot water and steam room are heated by city gas. A 55 -gallon drum was located in the boiler room. Labeling on the drum indicates that it may be a treatment fluid, which according to Mr. McDonald may have been used in the past to prevent corrosion in the boiler system; however it has not been used within the last 8 years. An overflow tank is located adjacent to the boiler area. A sump pump below this tank appeared to be dry. Material observed covering some pipes in the boiler room may have possible asbestos containing materials. SUBSURFACE, INVESTIGATIONS On March 29, 1990, Mr. Douglas Kemp of the Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc. supervised the advancement of test borings and the installation of (2) two groundwater monitoring wells at the Site. Figure 3 of this report depicts the approximate locations of the test borings and wells. Drilling operations were performed by Down to Earth Drilling of Tyngsboro, Massachusetts, using a truck mounted four inch I.D. hollow stem auger drilling apparatus. Drilling equipment was reportedly steam cleaned before and after use on the Site property. Soil samples were collected at five foot depth intervals using a split spoon sampling probe driven into the soils using a f40 lb slide harnmer. Blow counts required for the collection of these samples are shown on the drilling logs, which are presented in Appendix B of this report. Upon completion of each test boring, a 10 foot length of 2 -inch I.D. PVC well screen with blank PVC risers completing the depth of the well was placed inside the hollow stem augers, which were then extracted. Clean sand was placed around the well screen and around the solid riser, 2 ft. to 3 ft. above. the well screen,. A bentonite seal at least 1 ft. thick was placed around the top of the clean sand. The rest of the length of the boring was back-filled around the blank riser, and the wells were finished with a Grinch steel roadway box cemented in place approximately two inches above the ground surface level. During the drilling operation each soil sample was placed in a 250 ml glass jar and screened in the field for the presence of volatile compounds utilizing a portable H Nu photoionization detector calibrated to benzene. Volatile vapor concentrations is soils from the Site are 7 GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. determined by the Jar Headspace Procedure. The jar is partially filled with soil, covered with aluminum foil, capped and tightly sealed. The jar is then agitated and allowed to stand Wn for approximately 15 minutes. The H Nu probe is then inserted into the sample headspace through the foil to measure vapor concentrations. No detectable concentrations of volatile vapors were measured in any of the soil samples tested with the H Nu detector. Results of groundwater analyses from the monitoring wells installed identified the presence of volatile organic compounds. Benzene (trace), Ethylbenzene (2 ug/1), Toluene (5ug/1) and Total Xylenes (5ug/1) was detected in the water sample obtained from monitoring well MW -1. The combination of these compounds indicates the possible presence of a petroleum product in the groundwater. No Volatile organic compounds were detected in groundwater sampled from monitoring well MW -2. No volatile organic compounds were detected in the soil sample analyzed from test boring B-6 at monitoring well MW -1. Soil samples analyzed from B-6 contained no detectable amounts of volatile organic compounds, and soil samples analyzed from B-6 and B-7 contained no detectable amounts of petroleum hydrocarbons. The composite surface soil sample obtained from test borings B-1, B-2, and B-3 contained 158 mg/kg of petroleum hydrocarbons (Refer to Appendix C for chemical analysis results). The level of 158 mg/kg petroleum hydrocarbons detected in a composite surface soil sample from test borings B-1, B-2, and B-3 is below the 300 mg/kg limit established for areas of low environmental impact and above the 100 mg/kg limit for areas of high environmental impact. Since the'Site is in a commercial area, the DEP established 300 mg/kg limit is applicable. Also, the result might indicate the possible surface contamination - caused by parked vehicles in this area. Drinking water standards established for Benzene, Ethylbenzene, Toluene and Total Xylenes are 5ug/l, 700 ug/l, 2,000 ug/1 and 1,000 ug/1, respectively. The concentrations detected in the groundwater sampled from MW -1 are well within these limits. In addition, since there are no drinking water sources within the area of the Site, the presence of these compounds in the groundwater does not pose a threat to the public health. RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS Based upon the limited subsurface investigation and research information, evidence exists that a small quantity of petroleum may have been spilled into the soil and leached into 8 4 1 GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. 14 the groundwater in the area of the 10,000 gallon underground fuel oil storage tank located rMA on the Site. A level of 158 mg/kg petroleum hydrocarbons was detected in a composited NA soil sample from surface samples at B 1, B2, and B3. A 2,000 gallon underground fuel oil storage tank is located beneath the sidewalk on Essex Street. A 55 -gallon drum which may contain used oil or an anti -corrosion fluid was located in the boiler room of the building on the Site. Floor drains connected to the city sewer system are located in the building. Two sump pumps are located in the building, one in the filter room and one in the boiler room. Material observed covering some pipes in the boiler room and filter room may have s�A possible asbestos containing materials. Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc., therefore makes the following recommendations: 1) The DEP should be notified of the presence of the contamination in the groundwater and the soil. It may be appropriate to consider the contamination as originating as a result of a spill of less than 10 gallons. Although the levels of volatiles detected are within drinking water standards, the DEP should determine if notification of the presence of these volatiles is necessary. Since the Site is located in a commercial area, the allowable level for petroleum hydrocarbons in the soil is 300 mg/kg. 2) The 10,000 gallon tank on the Site is at least 25 years old. It should be removed at the time of or y.ior to the excavation for the building addition according to all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations. The 2,000 gallon tank is currently used to store heating fuel for the Salem Housing Authority. This tank should be tightness tested on a routine to assure that it is not leaking. If it is no longer in use, it should be removed or made inert according to all applicable Federal, State, and Local regulations. 3) The 55 -gallon drum of what may be waste oil or anti -corrosive material located in the boiler room of the building should be removed from the Site and disposed of properly by a licensed hazardous waste contractor in accordance with all applicable Federal, State, and local regulations. - 9 GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER INC. 4) The floor drains in the building should be regularly cleaned and maintained. The two sump pumps in the building should be periodically inspected for the presence of a sheen or other indications of oil or hazardous materials. 5) The areas of suspected asbestos material should be monitored and repaired as necessary under direction of a certified asbestos inspector. The presence of the contamination observed in the groundwater and soil at the Site is not considered to be a threat to the public safety. During the Site investigation, no odors, or visual evidence of hazardous waste contamination was detected interior to, or exterior the building.

APPENDIX D Summary of Qualifications Gulf of Maine Research Center Inc. 204 Lafayette Street Salem, Massachusetts Summary of Qualifications GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH CENTER, INC. 204 Lafayette Street Salem, MA 01970 (508) 745-6618 The Gulf of Maine Research Center, Inc. is a small business with headquarters in Salem, MA, and branch offices in Lawrence, MA and Portsmouth, NH, (GMRC) which specializes in defining environmental regulations and providing technical consulting services to attorneys, developers, bankers, title companies, engineers, industry and government in order to satisfy these regulations. When new facilities are constructed or business operations are modified, compliance with federal, state and local laws requires the submission of technical information to appropriate regulatory agencies. Projects which have recently been undertaken by the Gulf of Maine Research Center, Inc., include: * Conducting numerous MGL c.21E site assessments (over 600 in 1988) for the presence of oil or hazardous materials. As necessary, GMRC has coordinated and supervised remedial action programs on contaminated properties, including underground tank removal, groundwater recovery system installation and contaminated soil removal. * Preparing Notices of Intent and Wetland Compliance Reports for Conservation -Commissions throughout the state for installation of submarine cables, seawalls, sewer lines, roadways, houses and drainage structures within the buffer zones of coastal and inland wetland resource areas. * Preparing expert testimony and adjudicatory hearing testimony for Wetland Filings before Mass. DEQE for projects in Wetland Buffer Zones. * Reviewing and recommending options to engineering companies, and city and state officials relative to alteration and restoration of ponds, lakes and fresh and salt water wetlands. * Recommending sewer outfall locations in Lynn, Salem, and Boston Harbor and evaluating impact of sewer pipeline through wetland and shellfish areas in Quincy, Weymouth, and Braintree. page 2 Obtaining Conservation Commission approvals for Eastern Route MBTA track, bridge and drainage improvements in Saiem, Beverly, Wenham, Hamilton, Ipswich, Manchester, Gloucester and Rockport. Analyzing technical reports and records of Acid Rain Damage in Massachusetts for New England Electric, Boston Edison, Commonwealth Electric, Northeast Utilities and Eastern Utilities Associates. In addition, the staff of the Gulf of Maine Research Center, Inc., has experience in siting numerous land based and offshore energy facilities including: * Obtaining U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (Region 2) N.P.D.E.S. permit to allow ocean disposal of drilling mud and cuttings in the Mid Atlantic and therefore enabled offshore oil and gas exploration to proceed. * Preparing permit strategy, documents and environmental reports and designing, subcontracting and supervising studies of land, water, and air environment for EG&G New England Energy Park 10,000 ton/day coal gasification plant proposed for Fall River, MA. * Preparing permit strategy and documents for proposed New England Electric - EG&G co -generation plant to generate process steam and --electricity at Millers Falls, MA. * Directing application for waiver of stack tests at NASA Hazardous Waste Rocket Fuel Incinerator at Kennedy Space, Center. Gulf of Maine Research Center has also arranged and conducted a series of U.S. Industrial Pollution Control Tours for selected international environmental officials. This work is being undertaken for the World Environment Center and U.S. Department of State (Agency for International Development). The Center has arranged the itinerary and conducted a tour for the Environmental Protection Minister of Tunisia, who visited industrial facilities in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, New York, Texas and Florida. Similar visits are planned for other senior international environmental officials. s page 3 The activities in which GMRC engages are multi -disciplinary, and they involve interacting with facility -managers, attorneys, engineers, geologists, geohydrologists, chemists, biologists, economists and planners. GMRC often works with solid and liquid waste disposal alternatives, treatability of wastes, surface and ground water contamination, and the impacts of hazardous materials and chemicals on the environment and on public health and safety. The Center evaluates ocean outfalls and impacts to other water uses, defines wetland boundaries, defines compensation for wetland utilization, evaluates feasibility of dredging and disposal of dredge spoils, and prepares Environmental Impact Statements, Environmental Impact Reports and applications for environmental permits and approvals. Dr. Hugh F. Mulligan, the Director of the Gulf of Maine Research Center, Inc., consults with other individuals or firms, as necessary, to carry out the Center's environmental programs. Prior to establishing this company, Dr. Mulligan worked for ten years with engineering and environmental consulting firms and spent fifteen years in academic research, teaching and public service. Dr. Mulligan has authored more than 50 scientific publications on Limnology, Aquatic Botany, Phytoplankton, and Oceanography and has presented papers at national and international symposia. He was awarded an NSF Fellowship at Cornell in 1961, was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship to develop a Center of Excellence in Oceanography at the University of Karachi in Pakistan in 1975-76, and in 1975 was selected by the U.S. and Rumanian Academies of Sciences for a ten-month Exchange Research Fellowship to study the Danube Delta of the Black Sea. He has worked closely with scientists from the Agency for International Development, world Bank, The United Nations Food and Agricultural organization, United Nations Development Program, and other international agencies. Dr. Mulligan has had considerable experience in working on projects that were quite controversial and often precedent setting. His role has been to design and receive industry and regulatory approval for special studies which satisfied the letter of the regulatory requirements and which were technically sound and cost effective. As the studies are being performed, he works closely with regulatory officials to insure that they are well informed and that the statutory requirements are met. page 4 Additional projects completed by Dr. Mulligan include: * Obtaining all environmental permits for Allied Specialty Chemical Oximes Plant in Hopewell, VA. * Designing regulatory studies, preparing a compliance plan and obtaining ocean dumping permits for Allied Chemical Company enabling them to discharge industrial wastes into an approved disposal area in the Mid -Atlantic. * Preparing the first Environmental Reports which achieved compliance with U.S.G.S. Regulations and consistency with Coastal Zone Management Regulations for companies exploring for oil and gas off Mid and North Atlantic coasts. * Obtaining N.P.D.E.S. permits for Hudson River Power Plants with Thermal Discharge Demonstration Compliance Studies. * Designing and conducting complex studies on the Phytoplankton Productivity of Georges Bank for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management which were essential to permit oil and gas exploration. * Designing an Ocean Dumping Compliance Program for the Government of Australia. * Evaluating dredging and ocean disposal of dredged materials for the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers at Roosevelt Roads Naval Base, Puerto Rico. Experience with projects such as these has enabled Dr. Mulligan to analyze environmental problems and identify the most cost effective - technically sound solution. Dr. Mulligan can provide a third party role by preparing or reviewing proposed scopes -of -work; reviewing -proposals and performixg a technical overview of reports and studies while the work is in progress.
