OF LITIGATION AND CONT CMC

USDC – N.D. of CA Case No. C 08-03490 MHP

PLAINTIFFS CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO, BY AND THROUGH ITS 

PORT COMMISSION, AND PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (“Plaintiffs”) and 

DEFENDANTS EXXONMOBIL OIL CORPORATION (“ExxonMobil”) previously jointly

requested and obtained from this Court an Order for Stay of Litigation, to enable them to carry

out an agreement reached at a Court-ordered mediation in April 2009. Under the agreement, the 

parties are working collaboratively on environmental investigation measures to address the 

conditions at the property located at 440 Jefferson Street (the “Site”), which is the subject of this 

litigation. First on May 4, 2009, this Court stayed the litigation and set a further Case 

Management Conference for September 21, 2009. This Court subsequently extended the stay

twice and finally set a further Case Management Conference for March 15, 2010.

The environmental investigation agreed upon by the parties is complete. A corrective

action plan was submitted to the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (“the Regional 

Board”) and presented to the public in January 2010. The parties now await its approval from the 

Regional Board. Thus, the parties continue their efforts to work collaboratively, and with the 

Regional Board, to develop and implement remedial action for the Site.

To this end, the parties stipulate to and respectfully request the Court to further extend the 

stay of this litigation and to continue the Case Management Conference from March 15, 2010 to 

November 1, 2010 or as soon thereafter as the Court’s schedule permits.
