lodged with the United States District Court for the District of New

    In this action, the United States sought reimbursement of response 
costs incurred in connection with the release and threatened release of

future response costs at $200,000. The Consent Decree resolves the 
United States' in rem claim under the Verified Complaint, and results 
in a recovery by the United States of 85% of the sales proceeds of the
