Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act
On September 28, 2017, the
Department of Justice lodged a Consent
Decree with defendant Aramark
Uniform & Career Apparel, LLC
(‘‘Aramark’’) in the United States
District Court for the Southern District
of West Virginia, Civil Action No. 3:17–
cv–04062. The Consent Decree resolves
a claim under Section 107(a)(2) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act (‘‘CERCLA’’), 42 U.S.C. 9607(a)(2),
for past response costs incurred in
connection with the release of PCE at
the Coyne Textile Services Superfund
Site, located in Huntington, West
Virginia. The Complaint filed
concurrently with the Consent Decree
alleges that Aramark, through a
predecessor company, owned and
operated an industrial laundry business
at the Site from 1972 to 1982 that
included a dry cleaning process that
utilized perchloroethylene (‘‘PERC’’ or
‘‘PCE’’). The proposed consent decree
obligates Aramark to reimburse $1.595
million of the United States’ past
response costs and provides Aramark a
covenant not to sue for past response
costs incurred through May 10, 2017.
Aramark is performing the work at the
Site pursuant to an administrative order
and agreement with EPA, which
addresses claims under Section 106(a)
