                    Notice is hereby given that on August 16, 2007, a proposed Addendum to the Consent Decree (“Addendum”) in                     *United States*                     v.                     *Valero Energy Company, et al.,*                     Civil Action No. SA-07-CA-0683, was lodged with the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas.                

                    In this action, the United States sought a civil penalty and injunctive relief for violations of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401,                     *et seq.,*                     and its implementing regulations, in connection with the petroleum refineries that settling Defendant Premcor Refining Group Inc. operates in Memphis, Tennessee and Port Arthur, Texas, and that settling Defendant Lima Refining Company operates in Lima, Ohio. Specifically, the United States alleged violations of the New Source Performance Standards for petroleum refineries and the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Benzene Waste Operations. The Addendum requires Defendant Premcor Refining Group, Inc. and Defendant Lima Refining Company to implement injunctive relief to improve their refineries' performance, including reducing emissions from major refinery units, reducing the flaring of process upset gasses, improving leak detection and repair procedures, and improving the management of benzene wastewater streams. The Addendum also requires the Defendants to pay a $4.25 million civil penalty to the United States, the State of Ohio, and Memphis-Shelby County Health Department. The United States will receive $2.7 million of the civil penalty. The Addendum also requires the Defendants to perform several Supplemental Environmental Projects with a total value of $4.25 million.
