Notes
Pollution Control Hearings Board (PCHB) hearing transcript, pages 9-0060 through 9-0062 (AR 056666–056668), examining Dr. William Stubblefield (Ph.D.) under direct examination by Mr. Pearce. Testimony concerns port-generated documents presenting results of range-finding whole effluent response (WER) toxicity tests, including laboratory bench data sheets and a Parametrix memorandum (Exhibit 649). Hearsay objections raised by Mr. Stock (ACC) and Mr. Poulin; presiding officer Ms. Cottingham rules document admissible for background only, not for truth of the matter asserted, due to its draft nature. Dispute involves double/triple hearsay, indicia of trustworthiness, and foundation for expert reliance on WER ratio range-finding study data. Third runway EIS administrative record context; Port Of Seattle generated documents at issue.
