DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Extension of Public Comment Period for Consent Decree 
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and 
Liability Act

    On May 16, 2018, the Department of Justice (DOJ) lodged a proposed 
consent decree with the United States District Court for the Southern 
District of Georgia in the lawsuit entitled United States v. Hercules 
LLC, Civil Action No. 2:18-cv-00062-LGW-RSB. At the request of some 
members of the public, DOJ is extending the public comment period for 
an additional 60 days.
    The proposed consent decree would require defendant Hercules LLC to 
implement the interim remedy selected by the U.S. Environmental 
Protection Agency (EPA) for the outfall, known as Operable Unit 1, of 
the Terry Creek Dredge Spoil Areas/Hercules Outfall Site (``Site'') in 
Brunswick, in Glynn County, Georgia. The consent decree would also 
require the defendant to reimburse EPA $153,009.48 in past response 
costs at the Site, and to pay future response costs incurred by the 
United States in connection with this consent decree. Notice of the 
lodging of the decree was originally published in the Federal Register 
on May 23, 2018. See 83 FR 23937 (May 23, 2018). The publication of the 
original notice opened a thirty (30) day period for public comment on 
the Decree. The publication of the present notice extends the period 
for public comment on the Decree to August 21, 2018.
