EPA v. CITY DISPOSAL CORP LANDFILL CONSENT DECREE (CERCLA)

Case summary

THIS CD IS A CONVERSION OF A UAO. WASTE MANAGEMENT OF WISCONSIN DID MOST OF THE RA WORK UNDER THE UAO. ALL THAT IS LEFT IS OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE (O&M). TO ENSURE COMPLETION OF O&M, WE'RE REQUIRING WM TO HAVE 1.7 MILLION IN FINANCIAL ASSURANCE. THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THE CD IS TO FACILITATE PAYMENT OF 1.9 MILLION TO WM OF WISCONSIN. THIS PAYMENT IS DERIVED FROM A SETTLEMENT IN THE UNIROYAL BANKRUPTCY OF THE EARLY 1990S. EPA RECEIVED STOCK, WHICH IT SOLD, AND IS NOW REQUIRED BY THE TERMS OF THE BANKRUPTCY SETTLEMENT TO USE THAT MONEY TO REDUCE THE LIABILITY OF PRPS AT THE CITY DISPOSAL SITE.
