                    Notice is hereby given that on March 15, 2007 a proposed consent decree in                     *United States*                     v.                     *Charles E.

In this action the United States brought claims under Sections 107 and 113(g) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 9607 and 9613(g), seeking the recovery of costs incurred and to be incurred by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) in response to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances at and from the property owned by the Defendants within the Clear Creek Superfund Site, in Gilpin County, Colorado. The ability-to-pay consent decree resolves claims related to acidic drainage and metals loading into Clear Creek resulting from past mining operations on property owned by the defendants.
