 Department of Justice
 On January 15, 2021, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Consent Decree (“Consent Decree”) with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in the lawsuit entitled 
                    *United States and the State of New Jersey, Department of Environmental Protection*
                     v. 
                    *Atlantic County Utilities Authority,*
                     Civil Action No. 3:21-cv-00800. In a Complaint, the United States, on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), and the State of New Jersey, on behalf of the Department of Environmental Protection, alleges that the Atlantic County Utilities Authority (“ACUA”) violated the Clean Air Act (the “Act”), 42 U.S.C. 7413, by violating: (1) The Solid Waste Combustion provisions in Section 129 of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7429, and (2) the Federal Plan Requirements for Sewage Sludge Incineration Units Constructed on or Before October 14, 2010, 40 CFR part 62, subpart LLL (“Subpart LLL”). The proposed Consent Decree in this case requires that ACUA pay a civil penalty of $75,000 to be divided evenly between the United States and the State of New Jersey, establish operating parameter limits based on performance test results, conduct root cause analyses and corrective actions for operating parameter deviations exceeding a specified threshold, establish and comply with standard operating procedures designed to minimize bypass events, and pay stipulated penalties for violations of Consent Decree requirements. In addition, the Consent Decree requires a New Jersey-sponsored supplemental project, to be overseen by the state, involving the installation of electric vehicle charging stations in Atlantic County.
