WHEREAS, on May 1, 2006, Plaintiff California Sportfishing Protection Alliance 

(“CSPA”) provided Defendants 7-11 Materials, Inc. and Reed Leasing Group LLC (“7-11 

Materials”) with a Notice of Violations and Intent to File Suit (“Notice”) under Clean Water Act 

§ 505, 33 U.S.C. § 1365. 

WHEREAS, on September 13, 2007 CSPA filed its Complaint against 7-11 

MATERIALS in this Court, California Sportfishing Protection Alliance v. 7-11 Materials, Inc. 

and Reed Leasing Group LLC, Case No. 2:07-cv-01918-LEW-JFM. Said Complaint 

incorporates by reference all of the allegations contained in CSPA’s Notice. 

WHEREAS, CSPA and 7-11 MATERIALS, through their authorized representatives and 

without either adjudication of CSPA’s claims or admission by 7-11 MATERIALS of any alleged 

violation or other wrongdoing, have chosen to resolve in full by way of settlement the allegations 

of CSPA as set forth in the Notice and Complaint, thereby avoiding the costs and uncertainties of 

further litigation. A copy of the Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release of Claims 

(“Settlement Agreement”) entered into by and between CSPA and 7-11 MATERIALS is 

attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated by reference. 

WHEREAS, the parties submitted the Settlement Agreement via certified mail, return 

receipt requested, to the U.S. EPA and the U.S. Department of Justice and the 45-day review 

period set forth at 40 C.F.R. § 135.5 has completed and the federal agencies have submitted 

correspondence to the Court indicating that they have no objection to the terms of the Settlement 

Agreement. 

NOW THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED and agreed to by and between the 

parties that CSPA’s claims, as set forth in the Notice and Complaint, be dismissed. The parties 

respectfully request an order from this Court dismissing such claims. In accordance with 

paragraph 2 of the Settlement Agreement, the parties also request that this Court maintain 

jurisdiction over the parties through December 15, 2008 for the sole purpose of resolving any
