    Notice is hereby given that on August 25, 2009, the United States 
Department of Justice, on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection 
Agency (``EPA''), lodged with the United States District Court for the 
Eastern District of Tennessee a consent decree with defendant Bowater 
Incorporated in the case of United States v. Bowater Incorporated 
(1:09-cv-00223). On the same day, the United States filed a Complaint 
pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7413 (the ``Act'') 
alleging violations of the Act at Bowater's Calhoun, Tennessee pulp and 
paper mill. Under the Consent Decree, Bowater will seek an amended 
State operating permit that makes various changes to Bowater's 
operations and provides new emission limits. Bowater also agrees that a 
penalty in the amount of $30,000 shall be allowed as a pre-petition 
general unsecured claim in the bankruptcy case of In re Bowater Inc., 
No. 09-11311 (KJC), pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for 
the District of Delaware.
