The appellants appealed a Director's Order requiring remediation and monitoring of groundwater contamination at a former manufacturing site.

Following Nortel's insolvency proceedings, the parties reached a settlement agreement wherein the appellants agreed to withdraw their appeals and the Director agreed to revoke the Order.

The Tribunal found that the proposed withdrawals and revocation were consistent with the purpose of the Environmental Protection Act and in the public interest, as a new Director's Order would be issued to the current property owner, backed by financial assurance, to ensure ongoing risk management measures are implemented.

The appeals were dismissed and the Order was revoked.
