Judge OKa s $430-million settlement fund for Lac-Megantic victims and creditors
2015-07-14 01:08:40| Railroads - Topix.net
The $430-million settlement fund proposal for victims of the Lac-Megantic train disaster is fair and can proceed despite objections by Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd., a Quebec judge ruled Monday. Superior Court Justice Gaetan Dumas rejected two Canadian Pacific motions aimed at stopping the fund, which is earmarked for more than 4,000 victims and creditors in connection with the derailment that killed 47 people in July 2013.

Judge decides not to allow environmental groups to testify against Exxon settlement
2015-07-13 20:03:53| Chemicals - Topix.net
In a blow to their efforts to block a controversial $225 million environmental settlement between the Christie administration and Exxon Mobil, a state judge Monday rejected the request by eight environmental groups and a state senator to intervene in the case and testify against the settlement. The environmental groups filed the request to testify before the judge in an effort to convince him not to approve the settlement, which is far lower than the $9 billion the state originally sought in natural resource damage claims related to nearly a century of pollution that damaged 1,800 acres of wetlands around two refineries in Bayonne and Linden once owned by the oil giant.

An $11.5 million class-action settlement with two salt companies will give some Ohio entities financial help later this year. Franklin County communities will be paying more for road salt this summer, but it won't be the budget-busting prices some Ohio cities saw last winter.

N.J. makes case for pollution settlement with Exxon
2015-07-10 09:15:57| Chemicals - Topix.net
In response to the thousands of comments opposing its $225 million settlement with Exxon Mobil, the Christie administration issued its formal response on Thursday, defending the deal even though previous administrations had sought almost $9 billion for environmental damages. The 87-page response, filed with a state judge who will decide whether to approve the settlement, reiterates many of the major arguments the administration has made since the controversial deal was first made public last winter: "The proposed settlement can hardly be viewed as a signal to polluters that they can pollute the state's land and water with impunity," the response states.
