    Under 22 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby given that on January 8, 2007, 
a proposed consent decree in United States v. Electra Realty Co. and

Pennsylvania.
    In this action the United States is seeking to recover response

Superfund Site (``Site''), which consists of a contaminated groundwater 
plume and a number of separate parcels of property located within and
