BILLING CODE 4410–15–M

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree

Pursuant to the Clean Water Act

In accordance with Departmental

policy and 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby

given that on July 28, 1997, a consent

decree was lodged in United States v.

City of Erie et al., Civil Action No. 94–

281E with the United States District

Court for the Western District of

Pennsylvania.

This consent decree resolves claims

against the City of Erie and the Erie

Sewer Authority (jointly ‘‘Erie’’) brought

pursuant to sections 309 (b) and (d) of

the Clean Water Act (the ‘‘Act’’), 33

U.S.C. 1319 (b) and (d), for civil

penalties and injunctive relief for failure

to comply with effluent limits and

pretreatment requirements. Pursuant to

the terms of the Consent Decree, Erie

has agreed to come into full compliance

with the Act, pay a civil penalty of

$200,000, and perform two

Supplemental Environmental Projects

(‘‘SEPs’’). The first SEP involves

separating approximately 5000 feet of

combined sewer lines and replacing

them with separate sanitary and storm

water sewer lines, which will result in

a reduction of pollutants entering

receiving waters and will ensure the

closure of one discharge point. The

second SEP entails installing upgraded

air pollution control equipment and

replacing old scrubbers on the Erie’s

sewage sludge incinerators, and will

result in a reduction of particulate

emissions and stack opacity beyond the

Standards of Performance already

required to be met by sewage sludge

incinerators. The combined cost of these

two SEPs is estimated to be at least

$6.25 million.

The Department of Justice will receive

comments relating to the proposed

consent decree for a period of thirty

days from the date of publication of this

notice. Comments should be addressed

to the Assistant Attorney General,

Environment and Natural Resources

Division, Department of Justice,

Washington, DC 20530, and should refer

to United States v. City of Erie et al.,

DOJ Ref. No. 90–5–1–1–5064. The

proposed consent decree may be

examined at the office of the United

States Attorney, Western District of

Pennsylvania, 633 U.S. Post Office and

Courthouse, 7th Avenue and Grant

Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Copies

of the consent decree may also be

examined and obtained by mail at the

Consent Decree Library, 1120 G Street,

NW., 4th Floor, Washington, DC 20005

(202–624–0892) and the offices of the

Environmental Protection Agency,

Region III, 841 Chestnut Building,

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107.

When requesting a copy by mail, please

enclose a check in the amount of $6.75

(twenty-five cents per page reproduction

costs) payable to the ‘‘Consent Decree

Library.’’
