Recipients of Notice of Claim Letter <br /> June 4, 1993 <br /> Page 3 <br /> Trust will not reduce its obligations to $-0- and <br /> certainly cannot and will not attempt to profit by <br /> the cost recovery action. The Trust's intent is <br /> solely to spread the total costs of remediation at <br /> the site over a larger and more equitable <br /> collection of responsible parties. <br /> • We have heard concerns expressed that the garbage <br /> haulers who used the Oak Grove site are somehow <br /> escaping responsibility for the costs of <br /> remediation. This is not true. Haulers who used <br /> the site are responsible for a fair portion of the <br /> costs of remediation. <br /> We cannot overemphasize the advantages to settling promptly <br /> with the Trust. Settlement before June 15, 1993 will provide a <br /> package of benefits that will simply not be :available to parties <br /> who either settle after June 15 or who are pursued and have their <br /> responsibility affixed through court action. Once the settlement <br /> is final, settling parties will receive statutory contribution <br /> protection against future involvement in recovery lawsuits for this <br /> site. Further, early settlers will receive protection by the Trust <br /> from future assessment of costs at the site and will also receive <br /> a release of natural resources damages liability. Taken together, <br /> the amount which you would pay as an early settlement with the <br /> Trust and the protections you will receive in return are an <br /> extremely attractive solution to your liability at the site. We <br /> urge you to contact us promptly and work through the settlement <br /> process in the next ten days. <br /> Enclosures <br /> c: Gary P.
