Case Management Statement were the first deadlines for submission of the record index

and dispositive motions entered by the Court and there have been no previous extensions

of those deadlines.

As described in the Supplement to the Joint Case Management Statement,

plaintiffs and defendant have been discussing a settlement of this case. Plaintiffs and

defendant continue to be hopeful that a settlement can be reached. Intervenors have not

been party to those discussions, and join this stipulation without prejudice to their pending

Motion to Dismiss.

While plaintiffs and defendant have had discussions concerning the administrative

record, and defendant has produced a draft index to plaintiffs, the effort of plaintiffs and

defendant has been on settlement and they have not yet agreed upon the excerpts of record

to be submitted to the Court. Accordingly, to allow plaintiffs and defendants to continue

to focus their efforts on settlement, an extension of the deadlines in the Supplement to the

Joint Case Management Statement is appropriate. Furthermore, the Court indicated at the

May 9 hearing on intervenor’s motion to dismiss that it intends to grant plaintiffs’ motion

regarding the administrative record, which is likely to require supplementation of the

record and a further extension of the deadlines for submission of the administrative record

and for dispositive motions. Thus, this extension is not likely to delay ultimate resolution

of this case.

Accordingly, the parties stipulate to the following revised deadlines:

July 14, 2008 EPA will file with the Court and serve on the other parties a

certified index to the administrative records and the

agreed-upon excerpts of the records.
