including the requirement that 

Defendants remove or relocate mango 

trees and banana trees from the buffer 

zone area, and replace them with 

plaintain trees which would not be 

sprayed. 

The United States and Defendants 

have reached a proposed agreement to 

resolve the United States’ Motion to 

Enforce the Consent Decree and its 

request for stipulated penalties, which 

Settlement Agreement requires 

Defendants, inter alia, to remove or 

relocate the mango trees they were 

required to remove or relocate under the 

Decree by April 1, 2006, which schedule 

will allow Defendants to transplant the 

mango trees elsewhere at the Farm, and 

to replace them with bananas or 

plaintains. The Settlement Agreement 

authorizes the Farm to plant, in two 

perimeter areas, an extra row of neem 

trees as a barrier instead of planting 

bananas or plaintains. The Settlement 

Agreement allows Defendants to apply 

low-toxicity pesticides in limited 

circumstances and under application 

restrictions in buffer zone areas to 

address an outbreak of Sigatoka Negra. 

The Settlement Agreement also requires 

the Farm to pay a stipulated penalty of 

$50,000 over a one year period, plus 

interest.

receive, for a period of fifteen (15) days 

from the date of this publication,
