20. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works20 2008 Bio-Pilot Work Overview Reduction of DNT via biodegradation observed by GA Tech in studies funded by DuPont. Small field-scale pilot conducted in 2007 at Barksdale. 2007 results promising, pilot scaled up in 2008. Pilot locations chosen based on manufacturing history (predominately DNT). Work started in June 2008 at four locations.

37. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works37 Continue biodegradation studies. Continue to address DNX isomer and As/Pb issues. Continue public interaction and water supply commitments. Barksdale Path Forward

38. Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest Update

39. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works39

40. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works40 Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest Project Summary: DuPont working in conjunction with the US Forest Service (USFS) to investigate two sites (Cabin Lake and Clover) in the Chequamegon- Nicolet National Forest. Delineation of debris, via geophysical surveying, was the first investigation step: Delineation completed at Cabin Lake in late 2006, while debris delineation was completed at Clover in May 2007. Debris delineation report submitted to USFS on June 7, 2007.

41. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works41 Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest Completed field portion of the Phase II Archaeological investigation in June 2008 Approximately 1,500 man hours of field work. Excavated 188 Shovel Test Pits (STPs) and 17 Test Units (TUs). Recovered artifacts that appear to be associated with past logging activities. Artifacts shipped to URS’ archaeology lab in Maryland for further study and curation preparation. Report preparation underway. Expected submittal to agency before the end of the calendar year. USFS and Wisconsin State Historical Preservation Office will determine if the site is eligible for National Historic Register of Places.

42. July 22, 2008Former DuPont Barksdale Works42 Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest Path Forward: Once the archaeological work is reported and a determination as to what extent, if any, the logging site will need to be addressed as part of planned environmental work at Cabin Lake, DuPont will submit the final work plan for environmental investigation of the Clover and Cabin Lake sites to USFS for review. The environmental investigations at Clover and Cabin Lake are planned for 2009, pending USFS approval to proceed.
