The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has announced a proposed administrative cost recovery settlement related to the Bliss Corner Neighborhood Site in Dartmouth, Massachusetts, according to an official notice published in the Federal Register on July 30, 2026.
The settlement falls under CERCLA, the federal law commonly known as Superfund, which governs the cleanup of contaminated sites and allows the EPA to recover costs associated with those cleanup efforts. Administrative cost recovery settlements are a standard mechanism the agency uses to recoup expenses it has incurred at contaminated sites from parties deemed responsible.
