The principally responsible parties formed a coalition to sue several municipalities for assistance in cleanup costs. During the litigation, a special master was appointed to determine which parties contributed waste and how much each contributed.

The decision was appealed. The appellate court determined that disregarding the special master's determination of liability was

B. not permissible because there was no error of law in the determination of liability. C. permissible because the special master should not have been appointed.
