can assist the Martin Aaron stakeholders with allocation
concepts and methods.
It is possible that allocation will
become a major project issue. Allocation will take into
account such information as facility history, chemicals
produced, and remedy risk drivers.
The Project Navigator team has accumulated
tens of man-years of experience in structuring allocation
schemes. We have derived this experience as both clients
and allocation consultants.
We have worked on large complex allocation
projects where the amount of raw information has been
staggering. We have formulated information codification
procedures that permitted the Martin Aaron stakeholders
to derive early non-binding allocation scenarios.

PNL
has assisted 8 PRPs derive an interim allocation
at a major West Coast site. The allocation is being
used to fund early site remediation planning efforts.
The work leading to this allocation took approximately
2 months.
In the Gulf Coast, we have built a large waste-in
database for a major project involving 100’s
of PRPs. The database will now be used as a platform
to run different types of allocation scenarios.

“The allocation challenge lies in taking what are
complex, often subjective, sometimes even emotional reactions
and creating the mathematical formulas that transform
these subjective issues into objective numbers”.
From
Allocation of Superfund Site Costs through Mediation,
by Clean Sites, 1987.
