qDEC is responsible under
State law for selecting and mandating the final cleanup for the
site.
qDEC’s preferred remedy will
be presented in a proposed remedial action plan (PRAP). (DEC previously issued a PRAP for
the site.)
qAfter receiving comments on
the new PRAP, DEC will issue a record of decision (ROD)
setting forth its final selected remedy for the site.
qThe proposed settlement
would only resolve the Riverkeeper and Village’s lawsuit
against ARCO. It would
not supplant DEC’s ongoing responsibility for ensuring that the
site is cleaned up.
