Notice of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Clean Air Act

    Notice is hereby given that on March 21, 2011, a proposed Consent 
Decree in United States v. Mariana Acquisition Corp., Civil Action No. 
CV 11-0006, was lodged with the United States District Court for the 
Northern Marianas Islands.
    The Consent Decree in this Clean Air Act enforcement action 
resolves allegations by the Environmental Protection Agency, asserted 
in a complaint filed together with the Consent Decree, under Section 
113(b) of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7413(b), for alleged 
environmental violations at Mariana Acquisition Corporation's bulk 
gasoline terminal in Saipan, Northern Marianas Islands. The violations 
include failing to install a vapor collection system for collecting 
total volatile organic compounds (``VOCs'') displaced from tank trucks 
during product loading, as required by regulations promulgated under 
the New Source Performance Standards of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 
7411(b)(1)(B), and VOC emissions exceeding those permitted by the 
regulations. The proposed Consent Decree would require defendant to 
install the required vapor collection system, limit emissions of 
volatile organic compounds, and pay $826,000 in civil penalties to the 
United States.
