~~ Dear Jteaident 1 """ HC

z;u AI a reault of the initial planning proeeaa, I have received a HZ

great deal of feedback regarding the potential relocation of your "'_,, faaily and pete during the execution of the drua excavation activitiea ;uo

l>l> at Area 1 Carea adjacent to Auburn Rd . ) I vilb to thank you for your ;::o patience and underatanding regarding thil difficult deciaion. Aa a <r reault of your input, three relocation optiona have bean identified aa viable altarnativaa t ;uo "'~ ,,

OH A. llo relocation with Uaited alta operationa . or

;urB. DayU• relocation during alta work daya. 0 C. 24 hour, 7 day per weak relocation.

Option A

llo relocation with Uaited alta operation• aball ranrict the excavation work perio4 to the houre of t100 •·•· to 2100 ·p . a. . In addition, reaidanu will be allowd to raMin at their ho•• provided that chaaical vapon are not detecte4 on Auburn aoad. beyond the excavation area. Should. cheaical vapora be d.etecte4 on Auburn Road, I ahall be force4 to initiate relocation option• a or C for all abutting reeid.enta . Should. a ai te incident occur, i-d.iate evacuation •hall be i!lple•nted. via the attached e•rgency reaponae plan.

2.Rtl2!L!

Dayti• relocation d.uring aite work dayl would. expand. the excavation work period to a full work day ( lliniaua 8 houn) Monday through Priday and allow the reaid.enta to return to their ho•• at night. The proviaion for cheaical vapor aigration into Auburn Road. would. apply regarding the return to the ho•• which will force • to activate Option c.

~

24 hour, 7 day per wek relocation would allow the excavation work

:~i~d !:tezcn:u~e~t!~ : !!.~:~~!:Yin:~:.:~!'o~~:'!::ic R;:id:~: relocation due to cheaical vapor aigration beyond the excavation area.

Prom a 111.nagerial viewpoint, Option C -.,uld allow the excavation project to be COIIIpleted in a 8lre expedient Mnner while ahortening the period for potential relocation.
