Superfund Program; Final Model CERCLA Past Costs Consent Decree and Administrative Agreement

The Agency is publishing today the final ``Model CERCLA Section 107 Consent Decree for Recovery of Past Response Costs'' and the final ``Model CERCLA Section 122(h)(1) Agreement for Recovery of Past Response Costs.'' These models, developed by the Agency and the U.S. Department of Justice, provide guidance for Agency and Department staff when negotiating settlement of CERCLA Section 107 claims for recovery of purely past response costs. The model consent decree is designed for judicially-approved CERCLA Section 107 settlements, and the model agreement is designed for administrative CERCLA Section 122(h)(1) settlements. The Agency is publishing the models in their entirety, along with the September 29, 1995 joint memorandum of the EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice announcing their issuance, to inform affected members of the public of their existence and content.
