TO THE COURT AND TO THE PARTIES:

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that Plaintiff San Francisco Baykeeper and Defendants City of 

Berkeley and Community Conservation Centers, Inc. (collectively, the “Parties”) have reached a 

tentative settlement in this action, which has been executed by the Parties. As required by federal law, 

a copy of the [Proposed] Consent Decree has been sent to the U.S. Department of Justice and to the 

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (collectively, the “Agencies”) for a mandatory 45-day review 

period under 33 U.S.C. § 1365(c)(3) and 40 C.F.R. § 135.5. Copies of the [Proposed] Consent Decree 

will be sent to the Agencies via U.S. Certified Mail on today’s date. Upon expiration of the 45-day 

review period, Plaintiff will request that the Court (1) approve and execute the [Proposed] Consent 

Decree which provides for continuing Court jurisdiction over any disputes which may arise between 

the parties under the agreement, and (2) approve and execute an Order dismissing the Complaint.

Therefore, in light of the 45-day statutory review period, which ends on approximately July 8, 

2016, Plaintiff requests that the Court vacate from its calendar the August 4, 2016 Case Management 

Conference and associated deadlines, and issue an order that the Parties have until July 15, 2016 to file 

a motion to enter the [Proposed] Consent Decree.

WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that the Court approve and enter the Proposed 

Order below.

DATE: May 24, 2016 Respectfully Submitted,
