BRTTL~ MTN. GULll SL (ly-b(l-SSbS HUb~ "y3 11G~5y No.U11 F'.U1 <br />~• <br />BMRI finds the progress and direction of the third party <br />sampler unacceptable. RCG has represented themsely s as a <br />contractor desiring and capable of performing the third <br />party independent sampling within a monetary budget ,and a <br />specified time frame. RCG has failed in this effort, not <br />once, but twice. This situation cannot be allowed to <br />continue. <br />BMRI believes, though well-intended, the third part <br />sampling effort has not been substantiative in its ~indings. <br />No new issues have been identified through the third party <br />sampling program. This fact coupled with the contractual <br />breach of obligations by RCG suggests this program l~e <br />discontinued or at a minimum modified. BMRI believ s there <br />exists a viable compromise position for resolution o!f the <br />third party sampling. <br />BMRI proposes that the next third party site visit kie <br />postponed until all outstanding site visit reports ave been <br />finalized by RCG (trip reports three and four). It should <br />be noted that BMRI has already submitted analysis r orts to <br />the Division for these sampling events. BMRI shoulc~bc <br />given the opportunity to respond to any issues of s stance <br />included in the site visit reports prior to release. Then, <br />during the fourth time period, a final sampling visit will <br />take place. As per the contract and MOU, the third party <br />sampling program will be evaluated in October. <br />The resolution position maintains the intent and pu ose of <br />the third party sampling efforts to verify on-site sampling <br />procedures and report laboratory results. A calerid~r year <br />period (October 1992 through October 1993) of sampling will <br />have occurred to verify data generated by BMRI and he <br />outside laboratory. The resolution will allow for through <br />review of procedures and results and will provide four any <br />potential concerns to be nddressed. The third part <br />contract will be concluded in October 1993 and cost will be <br />maintained within the revised budget. BMRI awaits he <br />Divisions response to this matter. <br />Sincerely, <br />~1~1«~:..~ Su'tr <br />Alana L.
