New Jersey reaches historic $2 billion environmental settlement with DuPont over 'forever chemicals'
Three chemical producers have reached a historic settlement with the state of New Jersey over "forever chemicals" and other pollutants released into the environment. Global chemical manufacturer DuPont and its affiliates, Chemours and Corteva, have agreed to a $2 billion settlement with New Jersey to resolve environmental claims tied to decades of pollution involving Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), commonly known as 'forever chemicals,' as well as other pollutants originating from four industrial sites across the state. NJDEP Commissioner LaTourette and NJ Attorney General Platkin made the announcement on Monday, calling the deal the 'largest environmental settlement ever achieved by a single state'. The proposed settlement, which still requires court approval, obligates the companies to pay $875 million in natural resource and other damages to the state over a 25-year period. It also mandates that DuPont and its affiliates create a $1.2 billion remediation fund for cleanup efforts at the four industrial sites and establish a separate $475 million reserve fund to ensure that, if any of the companies go bankrupt or otherwise fail to meet their obligations, New Jersey taxpayers are not left footing the bill. "Polluters who place profit above public well-being by releasing poisonous PFAS and other contamination in our State can expect to be held responsible to clean up their mess and fully compensate the State and its citizens for the precious natural resources they've damaged or destroyed," Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Commissioner Shawn LaTourette said. The proposed settlement will resolve the Chambers Works case, a 2019 lawsuit against Delaware-based E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Co. (now known as EIDP, Inc.) and other DuPont-related entities, officials said. The settlement follows a month of trial proceedings in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. In a press release, DuPont, Chemours and Corteva said the settlement will not only resolve the 2019 lawsuit, but 'all legacy contamination claims related to the companies' current and former operating sites (Chambers Works, Parlin, Pompton Lakes and Repauno) and claims of statewide PFAS contamination unrelated to those sites." ABC News reached out to the companies for comment, and they declined to comment further. Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a group of manufactured chemicals that have been used for decades in a wide range of products, including non-stick cookware. Commonly referred to as 'forever chemicals,' PFAS do not break down easily in the human body or the environment, and are associated with certain cancers, hormonal dysfunction, and other health problems, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). New Jersey's extensive industrial and manufacturing history has put it on the front lines of pollution monitoring and remediation. New Jersey was the first state in the nation to set a maximum contaminant level for certain PFAS. The affected sites include Pompton Lakes Works in Pompton Lakes and Wanaque in Passaic County; the Parlin Site in Sayreville, Middlesex County; the Repauno Site in Greenwich Township in Gloucester County; Chambers Works, in Pennsville and Carney's Point in Salem County. The Sierra Club, one of the largest and most influential grassroots environmental organizations in the country, called the settlement 'an incredible and historical achievement' for the state. 'DuPont has finally been held responsible for what they have done to New Jersey, to our public health, and to our environment', NJ Sierra Club Chapter Director, Anjuli Ramos-Busot, said in a statement. 'DuPont has been knowingly poisoning our lands and waters for decades. As an entity of chemical innovation, DuPont brought prosperity to New Jersey. But, like with all polluters with a ROI bottom line, the true impact brought to New Jersey was hidden from us'. 'This outcome proves that New Jersey will fight to ensure that polluters pay their fair share for the devastating damages they have caused. I remain committed to working alongside the Attorney General and the DEP to ascertain how to swiftly and effectively allocate these funds to best clean up our communities and protect public health in the future,' State Senator Linda Greenstein (D-Middlesex/Mercer) said. The DuPont settlement will be published in the New Jersey Register and is subject to a public comment period before it can be finalized. Following that, the proposed agreement must be approved by the U.S. District Court.

NJ settles lawsuit against Morris County gun store in violation of safety law
New Jersey officials settled a lawsuit against a Morris County-based gun store that had guns within reach of a ground-floor window. FSS Armory, located in the Pine Brook section of Montville, was named in a lawsuit in December 2023 by Matthew Platkin, the state attorney general, along with two Pennsylvania stores for violations through the New Jersey Statewide Affirmative Firearms Enforcement Office. SAFE was created as a way for the state to go after the gun industry in court for the "violations of the law that harm the health and safety of New Jersey residents," according to a statement from the Attorney General's Office. According to court documents, FSS "stored loose, unsecured rifles, stacks of handguns and gun boxes in an open room directly under two ground-floor windows" abutting a glass-doored entrance from the parking lot. The documents said the weapons were visible from the outside and in July 2022, posted a picture online showing the loose guns and gun boxes. In January 2023, the store was burglarized with the thieves breaking the ground floor windows, leaning inside and removing 18 guns within arm's reach. They stole seven pistols, six shotguns, four rifles and one revolver. The alarm wasn't triggered and it wasn't until the owner got to the store the next morning that the police learned of the burglary. According to the settlement, one of the burglars had searched gun stores in New Jersey on his phone and FSS Armory was part of the search. After the theft of the guns, the burglars traveled to a Passaic jewelry store and held the owners and two customers at gunpoint and stole "a significant amount of jewelry" while injuring one of the owners. Only nine of the stolen guns have been recovered and have been at a crime scene or on a criminal, Platkin stated. 'This case is a stark example of the consequences that can result when unsecured firearms fall into the wrong hands," Platkin said. "By storing these firearms with inadequate security measures, FSS Armory made it easy for them to be stolen and later used in crimes" Platkin said other licensed gun retailers "should take heed" of what happened in FFS Armory. FSS Armory admitted liability for its negligence and for improperly storing the guns in the store. It agreed to several measures, including: Improving the store's security and firearm storage The security measures and other compliance obligations are subject to final approval by the SAFE Office Installing an alarm system capable of making real-time notifications of a break-in on all windows and exterior doors, Installing bars on all exterior windows that don't allow someone to reach their arm through Store all shotguns and rifles in a rack with a locking device. Firearms and ammunition should be stored in a heavy-gauge metal cabinet or a heavy-gauge mesh wire cage or secured in a safe or vault. Those displayed in a glass case can remain as long as they are secured with a steel cable or other "adequate-looking device." Working with the Attorney General to appoint an independent monitor to check its compliance for four years and FSS will bear the costs for the inspection. FSS is also financially responsible and is required to pay a total of $125,000 to the New Jersey State Department of the Treasury. The first payment of $15,000 is due in 30 days and then payments of $10,000 will continue every month until May 2026. 'Today's settlement agreement demonstrates that our state's firearms industry public safety law works exactly as intended,' Ravi Ramanathan, director of SAFE, said. 'Companies in all industries are held responsible when their actions jeopardize the health and safety of the public." Once the provisions in the consent judgment are complete, the claims against FFS will be dismissed with prejudice.

Platkin enters the battle for Cherry Hill
Good Tuesday morning! Attorney General Matt Platkin is weighing in on the fight to fill Cherry Hill's 71 vacant Democratic committee seats. And here's a shocker: It's not on the South Jersey Democratic machine's side. Platkin filed a motion to intervene Monday in favor of the South Jersey Progressive Democrats, who won a shocking landslide victory in last month's Democratic primary, when their slate of just three candidates for Democratic committee in Camden County's largest town beat the full slate of 74 backed by the Camden County Democrats. The Camden County Democratic Committee is suing and convinced a judge to block the progressives from filling the seats ahead of a court date on Friday. But Platkin's office says there's no ambiguity about the law for filling vacancies: It's up to the elected county committee members to do it. He accused the Camden County Democrats of trying to 'rewrite the rules of the election after the rules were already set.' I try not to assume readers' knowledge about political relationships, but if you're an even semi-regular reader you don't need me to explain the state of affairs between Platkin and the Camden County Democrats' unofficial boss, George Norcross. But from my non-lawyer's perspective, Platkin and the South Jersey progressive Democrats have the plain language of the law on their side. 'In any election, voters go to the polls and cast their ballots based on the understanding that their properly cast ballots will be counted according to settled rules, and that their ballots will likewise be translated into election outcomes according to settled rules,' read the filing for Platkin, written by Assistant Attorney General Christina Brandt-Young. 'It would severely undermine voters' confidence in the electoral process. It would effectively deprive voters of the franchise, denying them the benefit of the rules according to which they cast their ballots.' State senator and Camden County Democratic chair James Beach suggested in a phone call that Platkin's intervention was related to Beach's bill, proposed a couple weeks ago, to remove the State Police from Platkin's purview. 'He's proven himself time and time again to be more focused on headlines and politics than doing his job for the people of the state of New Jersey,' he said. FEEDBACK?

However, others paint a far different portrait of the budget's overall impact on a state with many residents struggling to manage major concerns like housing and mass-transit affordability, even as total state spending by New Jersey has now risen to a record-high, nearly $60 billion. And the surplus being left to the next governor could have been even bigger, Murphy's critics note, if Murphy and majority Democrats who control the Legislature weren't planning to spend nearly $1.5 billion more than the administration estimates will be collected from taxes and other revenue sources over the next 12 months.'

The ruling, which sets a new legal precedent in New Jersey, stems from two cases involving men convicted of sex offenses decades ago who later asked to be removed from the state's sex offender registry and released from lifetime supervision … A Middlesex County judge granted both men's requests — but the state appealed, arguing the court failed to consider their full criminal histories.

NJ attorney general: Universal injunctions still possible after Supreme Court ruling
New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin (D) argued Monday that sweeping injunctions blocking the Trump administration's policies could still be achieved, despite a Supreme Court ruling against them last week. '[The Supreme Court] said very clearly: States still may need nationwide relief if, in fact, the harms that we experience as states … the consequences to states are enormous; so, they asked lower courts to consider that question,' Platkin, one of the state attorneys general who has advocated on behalf of the injunctions, told CNN's Kate Bolduan in an interview. 'I think we will very clearly be able to meet the standard that even this Supreme Court set out for states to meet should we need nationwide relief.' The high court issued a 6-3 ruling along ideological lines Friday that pushed back on judicial holds that have been used to stymie the president's agenda since his return to the White House in January. 'These injunctions — known as 'universal injunctions' — likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has granted to federal courts,' Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the court's six Republican-appointed justices, after the Trump administration argued that judicial overreach was entrenching on the president's powers. The justices ordered the lower courts to move 'expeditiously' to reconsider their injunctions and comply with the Friday ruling. Platkin told Bolduan he thinks that leaves room for universal injunctions in some cases. 'Notably, it was a rhetorically very strong opinion, but it actually was quite a middle of the road opinion for what the administration wanted,' he said. The case that prompted the court's decision centered on an executive order Trump signed earlier this year to restrict birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to immigrants. The court didn't weigh in on the merits of birthright citizenship. 'Look, I think it's important to remember what the Supreme Court did not do on Friday,' Platkin said. 'They didn't opine on the merits of birthright citizenship because everyone, for the last 157 years, has understood that babies born on U.S. soil since the Civil War have been treated as citizens.'

New Jersey AG ‘confident' in battle against Trump birthright citizenship order
New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin, one of the plaintiffs in a 22-state lawsuit against President Trump's executive order curbing birthright citizenship, said Saturday he was 'confident' the order could still be blocked nationwide following a Friday Supreme Court ruling that broadly restricted the ability of the court system to halt the president's policies. 'There's a whole range of administrative challenges that would make this completely unworkable, which is why I'm confident we'll get the nationwide relief we've sought when we go back to the lower courts,' Platkin said in an MSNBC appearance. The nation's highest court ruled Friday that Trump's executive order could be partially enforced because lower-court judges had exceeded their authority in issuing nationwide injunctions that blocked the policy. The ruling did not address the underlying constitutionality of Trump's order, but still drastically limited a judicial tool that has been used for decades, including to block federal policies from multiple presidential administrations. New Jersey is one of 22 Democratic-led states, along with a group of expectant mothers and immigration organizations, that sued to block the executive order almost immediately after it was issued in January. The injunctions issued by three federal judges in Washington, Maryland and Massachusetts in the ensuing months granted relief not just to those plaintiffs, but everyone in the country. That move, the Supreme Court majority said Friday, was unconstitutional. Instead, injunctions should be narrowly tailored to provide 'complete relief to each plaintiff with standing to sue.' The lower courts will now get the first attempt at tailoring injunctions to comply with the ruling. On MSNBC, Platkin contended that 'complete relief' to the states harmed by the executive order would still involve blocking the executive order across the country. 'It would be impossible to administer a system of citizenship based on which state you live in,' he said. The suits of the non-state plaintiffs, meanwhile, were quickly refashioned into class-action lawsuits, a legal route that Justice Amy Coney Barrett noted could provide broader relief against the birthright citizenship order in her majority opinion. The executive order remains blocked for at least 30 days while the courts and parties sort out the next steps.
