Further, BMG shall appropriately modify its entire environmentall monitoring plan, including ground and surface water, air, and processing circuit monitoring, to reflect all modifications completed in gqompliance with these NOV abatement requirements. These modifcations shalli be submitted in connection with the various permit revision applidations.

(11) "Critical Path" Project Management Schedule: Common methodology and practices may serve more than one abaterrlent plan task. Multiple tasks may occur simultaneously and may impose slignificant simultaneous performance burdens on BMG and the Division. In grder to recognize potential mutual benefits and to avoid conflicts and delay, BMG should develop, maintain and implement one comprehensive, inte rated "critical path" project management schedule for the abatement plan tasks. The project management schedule for the BMG abatement plan tasks may be complicated. Schedule maintenance could be facilitated by the use of project management computer software (ie. ON TARGET, Harvard Pnoject Management, TIME LINE, etc), which could be obtained by BMG and the Division. This would accommodate efficient electronic exchanges of progress information. The schedule should be formatted as a destailed "critical path" project management schedule. The schedule should be divided into discrete task elements.
