Notice of Filing of Proposed Settlement Agreement Resolving
Bankruptcy Proofs of Claim Relating to the Breslube-Penn Superfund Site
On October 17, 2012, a proposed Settlement Agreement was filed, on
behalf of the United States and others, with the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware in the proceeding
entitled In re: Hussey Copper Corp., et al., Bkr. Case No. 11-13010
(BLS).
Pursuant to an August 2009 Consent Decree, debtors Hussey Copper
Corp. and HCL Liquidation Ltd. f/k/a Hussey Copper Ltd. (``Debtors'')
are jointly and severally obligated to perform a remedial design and
remedial action, and to take certain other actions, related to the
Breslube Penn Superfund Site, located near Pittsburgh at 84 Montour
