DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


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

    Under 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby given that, for a period of 30 
days, the United States will receive public comments on a proposed 
Consent Decree (``Decree'') in United States v. City of New Orleans, et 
al., Civil Action No. 02-3618, Section ``E'', which was lodged with the 
United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana on 
July 16, 2009.
    In this action the United States, on behalf of the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA''), sought to recover response 
costs from certain parties. EPA incurred such costs in response to 
releases and threatened releases of hazardous substances from the 
Agriculture Street Landfill located in New Orleans, Louisiana. The 
proposed Consent Decree resolves the United States' claims against 
Delta By-Products, Inc., Edward Levy Metals, Inc., and counter-claims 
against the United States in this matter.

days from the date of this publication, comments relating to the 
Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General,
