DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act

    Pursuant to Department of Justice policy, notice is hereby given 
that on December 1, 2010 a proposed Consent Decree with Brown County 
and the City of Green Bay was lodged with the United States District 
Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin in a case captioned United 
States and the State of Wisconsin v. NCR Corp., et al., Case No. 10-C-
910 (E.D. Wis.). The Complaint in that case alleges claims under the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act 
(``CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. 9601-75, against Brown County, the City of 
Green Bay, and twelve other defendants concerning polychlorinated 
biphenyl contamination at the Lower Fox River and Green Bay Superfund 
Site in northeastern Wisconsin (the ``Site'').
    If approved by the Court after a public comment period, the 
proposed Consent Decree would resolve Brown County's and the City of 
Green Bay's potential liability for response costs, response actions, 
and natural resource damages associated with the Site, on the terms and 
conditions set forth in the Decree. The proposed Consent Decree also

[[Page 76026]]

would resolve the United States Government's potential liability for 
response costs, response actions, and natural resource damages 
associated with the Site under CERCLA. Under the proposed Consent 
Decree, Brown County, Green Bay, and the United States would pay a 
total of $5.2 million ($350,000 each from Brown County and Green Bay 
and $4.5 million from the United States). If the Decree is approved, 
the $5.2 million would be paid into a set of Site-specific special 
accounts for use in financing future cleanup and natural resource 
restoration work at the Site.
    The Department of Justice will receive comments relating to the 
Consent Decree for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of this 
publication. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney
