The only perplexing site is the one rated Good by the first consultant and Poor by the second. Upon examination of their detailed reports, you find that both gave the site high marks for ease of access to nearby towns and the interstate. However, the second consultant went on to note that the valley in which the site is located is in the runoff path for snow thaw.

Further, the second consultant made more decisive ratings than the first, who rated rather conservatively. You decide to retain the second consultant for further work.
