                    Notice is hereby given that on August 14, 2009, a proposed Consent Decree in                     *United States*                     v.                    *Magellan Ammonia Pipeline et al.,*                     (D. Kan.), No. 02:09-cv-2425, was lodged with the United States Court for the District of Kansas.                

In this action, the United States sought the penalties and injunctive relief pursuant to sections 301 and 311 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1311, 1321, and section 103 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. § 9603, against Magellan Ammonia Pipeline, L.P. (“Magellan”), Enterprise Products Operating, L.P. (“Enterprise”), and Mid-America Pipeline Company, LLC (“MAPCO”). The Complaint alleges that two discharges of anhydrous ammonia occurred in Blair Nebraska on September 27, 2004, and Kingman, Kansas on October 27, 2004, from an ammonia pipeline owned by Defendant Magellan and operated by Defendants Enterprise and MAPCO and that Defendants failed to report the discharges in a timely fashion to the National Response Center.

Pursuant to the proposed Consent Decree, the Settling Defendants will pay to the United States $3,650,000 in penalties for the discharges and reporting inadequacies. Defendant Magellan, which now both owns and operates the ammonia pipeline, will undertake injunctive measures aimed at reducing the likelihood of such discharges in the future and at improving its detection of and response to such discharges if they do occur.

                    The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of this publication comments relating to the Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and either e-mailed to                     *pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov*                     or mailed to P.O.

Kan.) No. 02:09-cv-2425, D.J. Ref. 90-5-1-1-06074/2.
