The agreement is contained in a court filing Tuesday, but the documents don’t disclose how much would be paid individually by Shaw Environmental Inc., Bechtel Corp., Fluor Enterprises Inc. and CH2M Hill Constructors Inc. and the companies’ insurers.
The deal is linked to a proposed class-action settlement between plaintiffs’ attorneys and several companies that manufactured travel trailers for the Federal Emergency Management Agency following hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005.
U.S. District Judge Kurt Engelhardt is expected to hold a fairness hearing on the proposed settlement on Sept. 27.
