Memo - The BMRI File Selection of Third Party Contractor & Lab page 3 the approved sampling and analytical protocols established for EMRI through TR-006. She proposes to complete the required sampling oversite, s mple preparation and delivery to the laboratory, and to review the analytical results and prepare a summary report of each sampling tour. Dr. Maast's estimated project cost was slightly less than that of Waste, Water ~ Land, Inc. Sherman J. Worthington, P.E. and Phillip L. L?onhardt, P.E., represented Waste, Water & Land, Inc. in the interview and coauthored the written proposal. Messrs. Worthington and Leonhardt have extensive experie ce in mine project engineering and water quality monitoring and sampling. W,W L also proposes to involve Ms. Elaine Donner, P.E. in the field sampling a tivity. Ms. Donner has experience in hydraulic and traffic engineering. W, &L proposed to complete a pre-sampling review of the approved sampling and analytical protocols established by BMRI in TR-006 prior to the first sampling round. W,W&L then proposes to complete the required sampling oversite, sample preparation and delivery to the laboratory, and to review the analy ical results and prepare a summary report of each sampling tour. Waste,Water & Land, Int.'s estimated project cost was slightly higher than that ofl RCG/Hagler, Bailly, Inc. Based upon the proposals submitted, both nominees are capable of pr viding the required services to complete third party monitoring of the San Lui~ site. Neither firm has direct experience in Cyanide sampling. The principle difference between the nominees lies in the involved professionals technical training. Dr. Maest is a hydrochemist / gecchemist, Messrs. Wcrthi~gton and Leonhardt and Ms. Donner are civil engineers / hydrologists. .all appear experienced and qualified in ~•vater sampling and emiironmental mcnit ring. Dr. Idaest's job experience has stressed the specific evaluation of environmental monitoring programs design and protocol methodology. ~W,41&L's involved professionals have routinely concentrated upon the project operational design, with Specification of monitoring programs to comply •,vith regulatory requirements. Dr. Posey and I anticipate that problems ~nhich might be encountered third party monitoring will most likely relat? to specific hydrochea geochemical aspects of +Water quality analysis, in •.vhich case we suss Dr. Maest is probably beta?r qualified to identify and remedy samoi' data accuracy and reliability problems. Similar to the nominees for analytical laboratory, these t~.vo nominees are both qualified anp cac my experience, this is an enviaole position 'o find ours2l•,es in. F Bailly, Inc.'s projected cost is slightly less than Waste, Water & L Inc.'s. However, in consideration of the comoination of slightly lc projected cost, the assignment of a single professional, and the opF to benefit from specific technical qualifiea-ions and experience of individual, it is my conclusion that RCG/Hag'er, Bailly, Inc. is the COntr dCtOr t0 prOVl7e the '~thl rd party Sdmp~`. ng" S?rviC?s the BOdrd wring the cai and ct a-r?fated ble.
