RE:RE:Shell Transfer Applications Set for an AER Public Hearing The sulfinol groundwater pollution is the much smaller part of that overall $3billion figure. The bulk of that is well abandonment costs.
AER would not accept separating liability for the gas plant pollution and it staying with Shell. The new applcation has Pieridae taking all of the liability, and Shell having a contractural obligation TO PIERIDAE for that laibaility (not to anyone else).

know who comes up with those assessments, but when Shell sold refineries I believe they
had similar issues.
