5 THE TEN STEPS
  5.1 Step 1: Research the original Life cycle Environmental
       Profile
  5.2 Step 2: Research life history and prepare LCEP
  5.3 Step 3: Prepare an LCEP for the extended life
  5.4 Step 4: Compare LCEPs
  5.5 Step 5: Evaluate adverse deltas to determine potentially
       critical cases
  5.6 Step 6: Determine the probable critical cases that
       require additional treatment
  5.7 Step 7: Formulate treatment options fro each probable
       critical case
  5.8 Step 8: Select options and compile work programme
  5.9 Step 9: Undertake the planned tasks
  5.10 Step 10: Evaluate results from the tasks and compile
