Cleanup Program. I served as site manager for the Site Cleanup and Underground Storage Tank Unit managing several Navy cleanup sites and the Asarco site in Tacoma. With respect to site cleanup activities, I have a total of 5.5 years of experience (4.5 years with the Ecology Central Regional Office Toxics Cleanup Program (TCP) and one year with the Site Cleanup and Underground Storage Tank Unit). I am a registered professional engineer in the State of Washington. Attachment A is a copy of my resume. 2. Regarding the Port of Seattle's (Port) application for a Clean Water Act § 401 Certification (401 Certification) for its proposed construction at the Sea-Tac International Airport, I was asked to develop fill criteria for the Third Runway project that are "technically consistent with Toxics Program policy and guidance and do not contradict or present a conflict with the Model Toxics Control Act." I addressed the potential impact of the fill materials to water quality indirectly by deriving fill criteria using procedures presented in the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA). Specifically, I used the WAC 173-340-747 (4) "Fixed parameter three- phase partitioning model" to derive the soil values. The following is a summary of the work I completed for the Northwest Regional Office Water Quality Program (NWRO/WQ). 3. In June 2001, Kevin Fitzpatrick of the NWRO/WQ asked me (through Mr. Craig Thompson, the then Temporary Unit Supervisor for the Site Cleanup and Underground Storage Tank Unit) to develop fill criteria for Port's Third Runway fill…

I also provided technical support for Ecology's 2001 stormwater manual update. I have 11 years of experience in stormwater management including the review of stormwater management plans for compliance with the Manual.

Pursuant to a contract between the Department of Ecology and King County, I reviewed the Port of Seattle's (Port) Comprehensive Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) for Master Plan Update Improvements at SeaTac International Airport (STIA) on behalf of Ecology. I also reviewed the Port's Low Flow Impact Analysis-Low Flow Impact Offset Facility proposal on behalf of Ecology (Low Flow Plan). These two plans are related because the hydrologic computer models…
