MARVIN ALLUM 

 given in the Project's final report. 



Let's take a look at the results of these 

 studies, beginning first with the field sample bioassay 

 study. 



(Slide FG-32) 



This is the Bellingham area — 



Are those figures clear enough, Brian? 



MR. JOHNSON: I think so. 



MR. ALLUM: (Slide FG-32) Beginning at 

 Bellingham at the point closest to the mill, for those 

 of you who may not be able to read it, we have what 

 appears to be a fraction. The numerator of the fraction 

 is the percent abnormal oyster larvae, mean percent ab- 

 normal oyster larvae, taken over quite a number of tests. 

 The denominator is the mean sulfite waste liquor value for 

 that station as determined by the Pearl-Benson Index. In 

 this case at the station closest to the mill you will note 

 that the mean percent abnormal was 100 percent. The mean 

 sulfite waste liquor was 1,120 parts per million. 



Proceeding then down the east shoreline 

 of Bellingham Bay and near Post Point, we have 91 percent 

 abnormals, 245 parts per million average sulfite waste 

 liquor .
