Search 42 U.S.C. § 9657 : US Code - Section 9657: Separability; contribution

If any provision of this chapter, or the application of any
provision of this chapter to any person or circumstance, is held
invalid, the application of such provision to other persons or
circumstances and the remainder of this chapter shall not be
affected thereby. If an administrative settlement under section
9622 of this title has the effect of limiting any person's right to
obtain contribution from any party to such settlement, and if the
effect of such limitation would constitute a taking without just
compensation in violation of the fifth amendment of the
Constitution of the United States, such person shall not be
entitled, under other laws of the United States, to recover
compensation from the United States for such taking, but in any
such case, such limitation on the right to obtain contribution
shall be treated as having no force and effect.
