EPA v. PRC Patterson - Ramos
Final Order With Specified Cost Recovery
Case summary
This is an AOC resolving the cost liability of Ramos Environmental Services under CERCLA 122(h). Ramos will pay $70,000, and receive generally standard covenants and contribution protection. [ NOTE: Cost Recovery proceedings began in a judicial referral, but DOJ preferred to negotiate settlement in an administrative forum. Thus the present Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) also accounts for the cost recovery at issue in the judicial referral (09-2003-0147), which accordingly will be marked in ICIS as Combined with 09-2005-0166. ]
