The appellant appealed a Director's Order requiring the assessment and remediation of groundwater contamination at a former manufacturing site.
Following the appellant's insolvency and CCAA proceedings, the parties reached a settlement agreement wherein the appellant would contribute funds to the current site manager for ongoing remediation, and the Director would issue a new order with updated risk management requirements.
The Tribunal approved the settlement, finding that the withdrawal of the appeal and revocation of the original Director's Order were consistent with the purpose of the Environmental Protection Act and in the public interest.
