Such timeline is anticipated to consist of: 1. Prepare an Initial Summary Report within 60 days from date of signed Consent Order. The report will summarize previous environmental investigations. It shall include at a minimum, a screening of site data against risk-based criteria, a conceptual site model (including a conceptual site hydrogeologic model), a discussion of data gaps needed to complete a site characterization in accordance OAR 340-122-0080, identification of potential interim remedial measures, source control recommendations, and conclusions. 2. Initiate evaluation and implementation of Site Stabilization BMPs within 90 days from the date of the signed Consent Order. 3. The overarching work plan will be initiated within 12 months of the signed Consent Order. 4. High priority remedial actions will be initiated within 18 months of the signed Consent Order. 5.
