The dumping of this hazardous waste resulted in the evacuation of hundreds of families from the Love Canal area in the late 1970s. Last week, a New York judge ruled that Occidental does not have to pay punitive damages for that contamina tion. The state of New York so1,1ght up to $250 million. In reference to paying these damages, Occidental President J. R9ger Hirl said, "You cannot judge people or companies based on today's knowledge for actions taken forty or fifty years ago."
