undertaken on groundwater samples taken at the Property pursuant to the Addendum and shall
provide no additional opinions.

2.
The parties shall designate their CSIA Expert and serve a report from the CSIA

additional sampling and not to any prior opinions by March 5, 2018.
3.
The parties are permitted to take depositions of parties’ respective experts (the
CSIA Experts, David Duncklee, Jay Bennett, Richard Royer and Thomas Hutto) and the two lay
