Section VIII of the AOC provides for the reimbursement of EPA's oversight costs by the City of Ft. Lauderdale. Under the terms of the AOC, section VIII is subject to section 122(i) of CERCLA, which requires EPA to publish notice of the proposed settlement in the Federal Register for a thirty (30) day public comment period.
