RE: I-FOI-283-87I-FOI-313-87
Dear Ms. Ryan and Ms. Sweeney:
We have completed our review of the documents relating to NewBedford Harbor sampling at E.G. Jordan's offices in Portland,Maine, and we are prepared to make them available to you. E.G.Jordan has prepared a table of the data in their files, a copyof which is enclosed. It is my present understanding that thefiles include "Validation Reports" for all the data in the table,exceot Group 7 (which are contained in a report from SanfordEcological Services) and certain data reports which are still to besent from NUS. The latter should arrive at E.G. Jordan by the firstof next week. E.G. Jordan also has "Data Packages" for all samplesexcept the following: the Group 1 samples with the "case number"4515; the Group 2 samples from the Army's Water Quality Lab: theGroup 3 metals samples with the Case Number 5131 from Versar,Inc.; a portion of "ETR 9102" from Group 4 which is also still tobe delivered from NUS; the Group 5 samples from Battelle and £31?and the Group 6 and Group 7 samples. I believe that the ArmyWater Quality Laboratory's documents have already been produced.The Battelle and £3! data packages which have not yet been producedwill be made available in the same manner as E.G. Jordan. Theother data packages will be made available as soon as possible.
Also included in E.G. Jordan's files relating to these data documentsare the following:
1) Four summaries from NUS describing the sampling and resultslisted in E.G. Jordan's table as Groups 1-4;
2) An NUS Workplan Amendment, with a cover letter from RobinSmith of NUS to Frank Ciavattieri of EPA; and
-2
3) A letter dated February 23, 1987, from Joseph K. Comeauof Aquatech, to Ed Doyle of E.G. Jordan, describingAauatech's protocols.
In order to expedite our response to your request, we will alsomake available at E.G. Jordan certain non-privileged documentsfrom Region I's files which we have been able to identify as coveredby your request, which have not been, or may not have been, alreadyproduced. These include:
1) A copy of a letter dated September 5, 1985, from Joe Yeastedof NUS to Jackie Prince of EPA attaching NUS's bidspecifications for the sampling program, and a copy of aprevious draft of the specifications dated August 1, 1985;
2) A letter to Ms. Prince from Robin Smith of NUS datedNovember 14, 1985, with data relating to the June, 1985samples;
3) A draft of NUS's scope of work for the drilling program,dated December, 1985?
4) A copy of a report on metals analyses from GCA, with acover letter to Ms. Prince dated November 27, 1984;
5) A letter dated May 5, 1986, from William Steinhauer ofBattelle to Dr. Michael Mullin of EPA;
6) A memo from Dr. Michael Mullin to Frank Ciavattieri datedDecember 22, 1986, with attachments;
7) A report to EPA from Dr. Thomas Tiernan dated November 21,1986;
8) A file containing draft maps of NUS's grid sampling andresults;
9) A memo from Dr. Peter Rogerson of EPA Narragansett to DaveHansen of EPA-Narragansett dated October 10, 1986 (anaddendum to the study produced in our October 6, 1986RFAs).
10) A memo with attachments from Curt Norwood of EPA (ERL-Narragansett) to Leroy Folmar of EPA, dated December 19,1986, with attachments, including a proposal byDr. Peter Rogerson dated July 9, 1986;
11) A memo dated December 20, 1986, from Walter Berry ofNarragansett to Leroy Folmar;
12) A memo dated February 18, 1987, from David Hansen of EPANarragansett to Leroy Folmar;
13) A memo from Nobert Jaworski of EPA Narragansett to FrankCiavattieri, dated February 27,1987;
-3
14) A letter dated June 5, 1987, from Daniel Averett of the Corps of Engineers to Frank Ciavattieri;
15) Four Memoranda for the Record (MFRs), by Allen Teeter of the Corps Waterways Experiment Station (WES) dated January 26, 27, 28 and 29, 1987;
16) A paper by Allen Teeter, undated;
17) An MFR by Michael Palermo of WES dated March 6, 1987;
18) An article by Michael Palermo, dated August, 1986 (COE Technical Report D-86-4)
19) An MFR by Allen Teeter and Bofu Yu of WES, dated May 6, 1987;
20) An article by Russell H. Plumb dated May, 1981, published by WES under a contract with EPA; and
21) Chain of custody records and lab notebooks from WES relating to New Bedford sampling.
22) Chain of custody documents for case number 5131.
There are other materials still being assembled by the variousparticipants in the RI/FS. I hope to produce some additionalmaterials either when you go to B.C. Jordan, or subsequently atRegion I's offices in Boston, or both. At the moment, we arecollecting additional documents from the Corps of Engineers'Waterways Experiment Station and EPA's Narragansett Laboratory.You should be aware that much of the information relative to analysesat these laboratories is stored on computer. We will identify whatinformation is now available in bard copy documents; if you wish toobtain information stored on computer tapes, we will ask that youpay for copying the tapes or printing out the data, following thestandard policy set forth by EPA in 40 C.F.R. § 2.120.
I wish to emphasize that although we are making these documentsavailable at this time, EPA has not completed its RI/FS, andproduction of these documents should not be taken to imply a finaldetermination on any issue being investigated. These documentswill thus constitute portions of EPA's administrative records, butit should be clear that the record cannot be considered comoleteuntil the studies themselves and the remedy selection process arecomplete. EPA may, in the course of the RI/FS, conduct additionalanalyses and additional review or interpretation of these analysedescribed in the documents now being produced.

Please let me know at your earliest convenience when you would liketo schedule an inspection of E.G. Jordan's documents. My number is(617) 565-3455.
Yours sincerely,
