scope of the consulting services is to monitor the modernization work undertaken by the modernization contractor,
MCS Systems, Inc.to insure compliance with Federal and State environmental standards relating to these hazardous
components.
The Bridgemont Modernization contract work is scheduled to start this month and it is imperative that an
environmental consultant be under contract from the start of this work.
