This is an Administrative Settlement Agreement for recovery of past costs with respect to the White Swan Cleaners/Sun Cleaners Area Ground Water Contamination Superfund Site. The Settlement Agreement resolves the potential liability of the Respondent for certain past response costs paid by EPA in connection with EPA?s oversight of its performance of the remedial design and remedial action for a portion of the Site relating to the White Swan Property Source Area remediation.

By letter dated August 23, 2019, the Settling Party has agreed to pay this amount in full.
