If you are a Sewage Treatment System Operator in the United States whose system was in operation between May 9, 2021 and May 31, 2024, Charleston Water System’s class action settlement may affect your rights.

Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP and AquaLaw PLC announce that a proposed settlement (“Settlement”) has been reached in a class action with DUDE Products Inc. (“Defendant”) regarding the manufacturing, design, marketing and/or sale of its flushable wipes.1 Defendant denies the allegations about its flushable wipes and maintains that the products perform as advertised. There has been no finding of liability against Defendant. Defendant has agreed to the Settlement to avoid the uncertainties and expenses associated with continuing the case.

You are part of the Settlement Class if you own[ed] or operate[d] a sewage or wastewater conveyance and treatment plant, such as a municipality, authority or wastewater district in the United States whose system was in operation between May 9, 2021 and May 31, 2024.

To settle the lawsuit brought by the Charleston Water System, Defendant has agreed to implement certain modifications to its business practices and has made certain representations and commitments with respect to its flushable wipes products. The details of these business practice modifications are set forth in the Stipulation, which is located at www.charlestonwipessettlement.com.

If you are part of the Settlement Class, you will automatically receive the benefits of the Settlement. You may also object to the Settlement and/or Class Counsel’s request for attorneys’ fees and expenses of up to $275,000 by September 6, 2024. You may retain and pay for an individual attorney, but you do not need to because Class Counsel is working on your behalf.

1 The terms of the Settlement are in the Stipulation of Settlement, dated May 10, 2024 (the “Stipulation”), which can be viewed at www.charlestonwipessettlement.com. All capitalized terms not defined in this press release have the same meanings as in the Stipulation.
