The Consultant may hold additional Stakeholder workshops as deemed necessary.

Task 2:    Identication of Potential Alternative Supply Chain Pathways for Northwest
Aviation Biofuels

The Consultant shall work with the Stakeholder group in identifying a series of potential
scenarios/pathways for the development of an aviation biofuels industry in the Pacic Northwest
delivering product at commercial levels by or before 2020. The scenarios/pathways considered
and identied should cover the entire aviation fuel supply chain in the Pacic Northwest.

EXHIBIT A
Sustainable Aviation Fuels Northwest
Preliminary Scope of Work
The intent of Task 2 is not to identify every possible scenario/pathway but rather to focus in on
those scenarios/pathways that are most likely to develop by 201520 in light of the aviation fuel
supply chain's unique market characteristics and the particular circumstances (e. g. available
feedstocks and delivery systems) found here in the Pacic Northwest.  The specic number of
pathways/scenarios identied shall be left to the discretion of the Consultant and the
Stakeholders to determine.

In identifying plausible scenarios/pathways, the Consultant should utilize the expertise of the
Stakeholders, as well as other information and expertise available from third parties not involved
with the project.

Task 3:    Identication of Environmental Sustainability Criteria

Biolel' development in the Northwest should address environmental sustainability issues
including, but not limited to:

Emissions of C02
Biodiversity and ecosystem functions
Use of water resources
Soil integrity

The establishment of good practices and standards for biofuel production in the Northwest is
important to secure industry credibility and stable public policy support. While it is beyond the
scope of this project to develop an environmental assurance scheme for biofuel production in the
Pacic Northwest, the Project does aim to identify existing principles, criteria, and standards that
have been developed by other organizations and governments that could/should be utilized to
demonstrate environmental sustainability in the Northwest. Towards that end, the Consultant
shall  work  with the  Stakeholder  group  to  identify  existing  environmental  assurance
standards/schemes and assess their applicability to projects in the Pacic Northwest.

Task 4:    Modeling the Economic and Environmental Sustainability of the Identied
Scenarios/Pathways

Working together with participating Stakeholders, the Consultant Will coordinate an
approach/strategy for modeling the economic and environmental sustainability of each of the
plausible scenarios/pathways identied in Task 2.  The modeling should include, but is not
limited to:

,             Environmental
Regional commercial aviation demand for     Lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions,
fuels from conventional and bio sources      using best data on carbon intensity of actual
'
Northwest petroleum feedstocks (i.e. tar sands)

systems)

industry 

The Consultant is encouraged to partner with and/or utilize the expertise of Members and
external third parties including academia to deliver some of the analytic capabilities. This scope
of work is premised on the understanding that much of the analytic work will be available from
Members and external third parties without the need for extensive modeling conducted by
Consultant. It is understood that many of the modeling outputs will be delivered as projections
with forecast uncertainties, as case specific models are notfeasible.

Task 5:    Development of Key Findings and Recommendations

Based upon the modeling conducted and the information learned as part of Tasks 2 and 3, the
Consultant shall work with the Stakeholders in developing key ndings and recommendations to
be included in the Final Report. The recommendations should focus on actions and efforts that
can be undertaken by a wide variety of stakeholders in the region to stimulate and advance the
development and commercialization of sustainable aviation fuels in the Pacific Northwest.

Task 6:    Production of Public Report

The Consultant shall be responsible for the production of the Final Report. The Final Report
shall be of professional quality and should contain the key ndings, conclusions, and

EXHIBIT A
Sustainable Aviation Fuels Northwest
Preliminary Scope of Work
recommendations as developed through the completion of Tasks 2 through 6. The Consultant
shall work collaboratively with the Stakeholders to determine the structure and exact content of
the Final Report. The targeted audience for the Final Report is policy makers, feedstock and
fuels project developers, investors, NGO's, and members of the general public. As such, the
Final Report should be written in a non-technical manner so that it is easily understood by
individuals with diverse backgrounds and interests.

Task 7:    Communication of Public Report and Key Findings
,

The Consultant shall work with the Steering Committee Member and Stakeholders in
developing and implementing a media /communications plan for the distribution of the Final
Report and the key ndings and recommendations.
