Summary · why it matters

A federal judge approved more than $2.5 billion in settlements reached by New Jersey with DuPont, 3M, Chemours, and Corteva to resolve claims over PFAS pollution. The settlement with DuPont entities, valued at more than $2 billion, is the largest environmental settlement ever achieved by a single state, while the combined settlements with DuPont entities and 3M total approximately $2.5 billion. Chemours and Corteva were part of DuPont prior to spinoffs. The judge called the total value an impressive windfall given litigation risks and said the settlements were fair, reasonable, and in the public interest.
