THIS MATTER INVOLVES A VERY SIMPLE AGREED ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER UNDER CERCLA AUTHORITY. THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE AOC IS THAT GEORGIA PACIFIC CORPORATION (THROUGH G-P'S SUBDIVISIONS, FORT JAMES CORP AND FORT JAMES OPERATING COMPANY), WILL PROVIDE $4 MILLION FOR THE PURPOSE OF FUNDING CERTAIN PREDESIGN SAMPLING AND CHARACTERIZATION WORK TO BE DONE IN THE FOX RIVER. THE INFORMATION GENERATED BY THIS SAMPLING AND CHARACTERIZATION EFFORT WILL BE OF GREAT ASSISTANCE IN THE REMEDIAL DESIGN FOR THE REMEDY WHICH HAS YET TO BE SELECTED FOR OPERABLE UNIT 4 OF THE FOX RIVER SUPERFUND SITE. THIS $4 MILLION WILL NOT RESULT IN THE ELIMINATION OF POLLUTANTS FROM THE RIVER, BUT IT SHOULD SHOW WITH GREAT PRECISION THE LOCATION OF AND CONCENTRATIONS PCBS IN THE SEDIMENTS OF OU 4. THIS WILL ALLOW THE REMEDIAL DESIGN FOR OU 4 TO PROCEED MORE QUICKLY, HASTENING THE ULTIMATE CLEANUP.
