DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Partial Consent

Decree for Interim Injunctive Relief

Under the Clean Air Act

Under 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby

given that on May 23, 2000, a proposed

Partial Consent Decree for Interim

Injunctive Relief (‘‘Partial Consent

Decree’’) in United States v. IBP, Inc.,

Civil Action No. 8:00–CV–28, was

lodged with the United States District

Court for the District of Nebraska.

In this action the United States seeks

injunctive relief and civil penalties for

IBP’s past violations of the Clean Air

Act and other environmental laws at its

meatpacking plant and associated

tannery and wastewater treatment

facility in Dakota City, Nebraska. The

United States asserts that IBP failed to

install required air pollution control

equipment as the company updated its

complex from 1989 to 1995, and, as a

result, illegally emitted an excessive

amount of hydrogen sulfide into the air.

Under the Partial Consent Decree, IBP

will build three new covered

wastewater treatment lagoons by

November 30, 2000; decommission its

existing, uncovered lagoons that are

largely responsible for emissions of

approximately one ton each day of

hydrogen sulfide; and undertake

additional projects to limit the release of

hydrogen sulfide into the air. The new

lagoons will capture hydrogen sulfide

generated by the wastewater and route

it for treatment to a scrubber and flare.

Any future uses of these lagoons will

require approval by the Nebraska

Department of Environmental Quality,

subject to EPA’s oversight.

The Partial Consent Decree further

requires IBP to treat over three million

gallons of well water used at its plant

each day, in order to reduce the high

concentration of sulfate in the well

water, which breaks down into sulfides

and in turn can be converted to

hydrogen sulfide in wastewater.

The Partial Consent Decree also

incorporates the work required under an

Administrative Order on Consent

entered into by EPA and IBP on April

27, 2000, which agreement requires IBP

to install 7 on-site and 2 off-site air

monitoring devices to monitor

emissions of hydrogen sulfide from its

Dakota City wastewater treatment

facility.

The Partial Consent Decree today does

not resolve the claims in the United

States’ lawsuit, but will provide relief to

local citizens from IBP’s hydrogen

sulfide emissions as the case proceeds.

The Department of Justice will receive

for a period of thirty (30) days from the

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 108 / Monday, June 5, 2000 / Notices 35671
