 Department of Justice
 On January 5, 2021, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed First Amendment to Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the 
                    ( print page 2699)
                    Eastern District of Pennsylvania in the lawsuit entitled 
                    *United States, et al.*
                     v. 
                    *Lehigh Cement Company LLC and Lehigh White Cement Company, LLC,*
                     Civil Action No. 5:19-cv-05688-JFL. On December 3, 2019, the United States and seven states and state or local agencies filed a Complaint alleging violations of the Clean Air Act, its regulations, and related state provisions at one or more of eleven Portland cement facilities owned or operated by Lehigh and Lehigh White Cement Company, LLC (“Lehigh White”). One of these facilities is located in Mitchell, Indiana (the “Mitchell facility”), and is owned and/or operated by Lehigh. The Mitchell facility is the subject of this amendment. Simultaneously with filing the Complaint, the United States lodged a Consent Decree. The Consent Decree requires, 
                    *inter alia,*
                     installation of emissions control technology for nitrogen oxides (“NOX
                    ”) and sulfur dioxide (SO2
                    ”), emissions monitoring systems, and specified NOX
                     and SO2
                     emission limits (except that the emission limit for SO2
                     at the Cupertino, CA facility will be established through a testing program). On November 19, 2020, following public comment, the Court approved and entered the Consent Decree. The First Amendment would modify two dates contained in the Consent Decree relating to the Mitchell facility: (1) Extend by two months the date for electing between two injunctive relief measures (either building a new kiln or kilns or retrofitting the existing kilns), and (2) extend the deadline for retrofitting the one of the existing kilns by four months, should Lehigh choose that option. The First Amendment would also revise the Consent Decree to make building the new kiln(s) the default option, should Lehigh fail to meet the deadline for selecting between building a new kiln(s) and retrofitting the existing kilns. The First Amendment does not revise any deadlines relating to any of the other ten cement facilities subject to the Consent Decree, or make any changes other than those described above. The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on the First Amendment to Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and should refer to 
                    *United States, et al.*
