Dear Mr. Chirlin:

The Joint Warren County State PCB Landfill Working Group 0N orking Group) has requested
that I submit information to you concerning the existing landfill groundwater monitoring
systems. There is consensus among members of the Working Group that the existing monitoring
system should be evaluated and upgraded if appropriate.
The staff of the Division of Solid Waste Management (Division) has proposed recommendations
for upgrading the existing monitoring system. In order to move forward on a final proposal for
upgrading the monitoring system, the Working Group has requested a peer review, external to
the State, of the State's recommendations. Chirlin and Associates was recommended as a peer
reviewer that has the confidence of the members of the Working Group.
I am enclosing two documents, which the Division staff sent to another independent professional
geologist, for your consideration for peer review and recommendations. If you need additional
information or have any technical questions, please contact Bob Glaser, staff hydrogeologist, at
[phone], ext. 300.
The Working Group has previously received peer review gratuitously. If Chirlin and Associates
anticipates compensation for the requested peer review, please let me know. In addition, I
would like to know a schedule for responding to this request.
