**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Injuries to natural resources have occurred as a result of releases of hazardous substances from industrial facilities owned by Alcoa, Inc., Reynolds Metals Co., and General Motors Central Foundry near Massena, St. Lawrence County, New York. The RCDP describes the natural resource injuries and associated losses and outlines proposed restoration projects. Hazardous substances released from these industries included polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), aluminum, fluoride, and cyanide. These hazardous substances have injured natural resources and the habitats which support them in the vicinity of the facilities, including the Mohawk community of Akwesasne, preventing the practice of traditional cultural practices by the Mohawk Community, and resulting in the issuance of fish consumption advisories.

Proposed Restoration: The trustees negotiated a settlement which requires the responsible parties, Alcoa Inc. and Reynolds Metals Co. to pay damages to compensate the public for the injuries to natural resources and lost human use of the resources. The 2013 Consent Decree establishing this settlement has been lodged in United States District Court for the Northern District of New York and will be the subject of a separate Federal Register notice and public comment period. Pursuant to the Consent Decree, the trustees expect to receive approximately $18.5 million in cash and projects from Alcoa and Reynolds for restoration. In addition, the trustees have received approximately $1.8 million in restoration funds from a 2011 General Motors bankruptcy settlement.

The Trustees considered various restoration alternatives to compensate the public for injuries from site releases and to restore the types of natural resource services that were provided by the resources injured by the hazardous substances. The preferred restoration alternatives identified are summarized in the RCDP. In total, $20.3 million from these two natural resource damage settlements will be used to complete preferred projects identified in the RCDP consisting of ecological restoration projects, human use projects that enhance access to fishing and boating, and projects to support traditional Mohawk cultural practices, including an apprenticeship program to promote Mohawk language and traditional teachings. A portion of the funds will also support Mohawk cultural institutions including youth outdoor education programs, and horticultural programs for medicine, healing, and nutrition. Details are provided in the RCDP.

Dated: March 19, 2013. David G. Westerholm, Director, Office of Response and Restoration, National Ocean Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
