THE REFERRAL REQUESTED DOJ TO FILE A COST RECOVERY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF CASE AGAINST THE OWNER/OPERATOR INDIVIDUALLY AND AGAINST THE CORPORATION. THE REFERRAL ATTACHED A TOLLING AGREEMENT THAT ALL OTHER PRPS AT THE SITE SIGNED TO EXTEND ANY POTENTIAL STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS THAT MAY SOON RUN. THE REFERRAL REQUESTED DOJ TO ADD ANY PRP TO THE SUIT THAT DOES NOT SETTLE BY THE TIME THE TOLLING AGREEMENT EXPIRES. EPA ENTERED ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER ON CONSENT WITH 27 DE MINIMIS PARTIES IN SEPTEMBER 1992. UNITED STATES HAS REACHED AGREEMENT WITH ALL BUT TWO NON DE MINIMIS PARTIES, EXCEPT FOR EARL ROMANS AND HIS COMPANY, BOTH OF WHICH HAVE FILED INABILITY TO PAY PAPERS WITH DOJ. UNITED STATES HAS PREPARED TWO PARTIAL CONSENT DECREES WITH THE SEVEN SETTLING NON DE MINIMIS PARTIES. TO DATE, NEITHER HAVE BEEN LODGED.
