The appellants appealed two Director's Orders requiring them to remove and dispose of PCB waste at a property in Thorold, Ontario.

The parties reached a tentative settlement where the appellants would submit a plan to remove above-ground waste and secure below-ground waste, in exchange for the revocation of the orders against them.

The Tribunal conditionally accepted the settlement, finding it consistent with the purpose of the Environmental Protection Act and in the public interest, as it provided a protective resolution for the environment given the appellants' limited financial means.
