The
table identifies the escalated enforcement actions for the Remediation and
Redevelopment Division (RRD) in which there is an on-going civil litigation or
the action has been resolved through execution of legally enforceable settlement
agreement, court order, or order of the Director of the Department of
Environmental Quality. The regulatory authority under which the enforcement
actions are taken include, but are not limited to, Part 201, Environmental
Remediation; Part 213, Leaking Underground Storage Tanks; Part 215, Refined
Petroleum Fund of the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994
PA 451, as amended and/or the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act, 42 USC 9601 et seq., as amended.
The table also
provides a link to the relevant legally enforceable settlement agreements
associated with the enforcement actions. If the enforcement action is being
undertaken through civil (i.e., court) procedures, links are provided to the
complaint and relevant court decisions.
To assist in
review of the
tables, the enforcement actions have been associated with a Part
201 site (Site) or Part 213 facility (Facility) when applicable. A site or
facility may be associated with multiple number and types of enforcement
actions. Also, enforcement actions may be associated with multiple Sites or
Facilities and are designated as "multiple" in the table column denoted as
County. If the enforcement action pertains to a bankruptcy or QC/CP revocation,
the action has been associated with the legal entity subject to the action.
The
information provided through the links is routinely updated and include
enforcement actions that have been initiated or resolve on or after January 1,
2004. Enforcement actions that were initiated in the table as the result of
some action (e.g., modification of the settlement) has occurred after January 1,
2004. For information concerning enforcement actions or settlements entered
prior to August 1, 2004, contact the DEQ staff person designated at the top of
this page. To request additional information regarding a specific case pursuant
