BACKGROUND
It has come to Supervisor Smith's attention that the referenced parties have been conducting settlement negotiations
that are a result of a lawsuit filed by the Rodeo Citizens Association opposing Pacific Refining's Reformulated
Fuels Project. It is our understanding that such negotiations have included discussion involving possible
participation by the County of Contra Costa. Clearly, the County cannot be obligated by any settlement without
being a party to the negotiations. Two of the parties have indicated they, would be pleased for the County to
participate in those discussions at this time.
