This First Amendment to the Administrative Order on Consent For Remedial Investigation/ Feasibility Study
(AOC) for the Lower Duwamish Waterway (LDW), CERCLA Docket No. 10-20010055, issued on December
20, 2000, provides for the performance of the Fishers Study Scope ofWork set forth below under the terms and
conditions of the AOC by mutual agreement of the Parties in accordance with Section XXVI of the AOC.

This Scope of Work (SOW) for the shers study for the Lower Duwamish Waterway (LDW) provides a general
overview of the work to be performed, a list of deliverables by task, and a schedule for these deliverables.

The goal of the shers study, consistent with the LDW Fishers Study Road Map, is to gather information from
people who either consume seafood from the LDW or who may assist in understanding aspects of LDW
seafood consumption in order to improve the effectiveness of the institutional controls needed regarding the
seafood consumption pathway. The study is not intended to generate quantitative seafood consumption rates. In
addition, risk communication/outreach measures to be implemented during or following the sher study are not
included in this scope; these measures will be explored using different mechanisms and potentially with
different parties or groups.
