DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree 

Under the Clean Air Act 

Notice is hereby given that on April 

12, 2012, a proposed Consent Decree 

(‘‘Decree’’) in United States v. South 

East Metals, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:11– 

cv–00751, was lodged with the United 

States District Court for the Northern 

District of Ohio. 

In this action the United States, on 

behalf of the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (‘‘U.S. EPA’’), sought 

penalties and injunctive relief under the 

Clean Air Act (‘‘CAA’’) against South 

East Metals, Inc., d/b/a Southeast Metals 

(‘‘Defendant’’) relating to Defendant’s 

Bedford Heights, Ohio facility 

(‘‘Facility’’). The Complaint alleged that 

Defendant violated Section 608(b)(1) of 

the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7671g(b)(1) 

(National Recycling and Emission 

Reduction Program), and the regulations 

promulgated thereunder, 40 CFR part 

82, Subpart F, by failing to follow the 

requirement to recover or verify 

recovery of refrigerant from appliances 

it accepts for disposal. The Complaint 

also alleges that Defendant failed to 

respond to an information request 

issued pursuant to Section 114 of the 

CAA, 42 U.S.C. 9614. The Consent 

Decree provides for a civil penalty of 

$15,000 based upon ability to pay. The 

Decree also requires Defendant to 

implement the following measures at 

the Facility: (1) Purchase equipment to 

recover refrigerant or contract for such 

services and provide for such recovery 

at no additional cost; (2) no longer 

accept small appliances, motor vehicle 

air conditioners (‘‘MVACs’’), or MVAClike appliances with cut lines unless the 

supplier can provide appropriate 

written verification (e.g., that all 

refrigerant that had not leaked 

previously was properly evacuated); (3) 

require its suppliers to use the 

verification statement provided in 

Appendix A that contains the 

information required by the regulations, 

unless it has an existing written 

agreement with that supplier regarding 

verification; and (4) keep a refrigerant 

recovery log to document details 

regarding refrigerant that is recovered by 

Defendant in the form provided in 

Appendix B. 

The Department of Justice will receive

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Workforce Investment Streamlined 

Performance Reporting (WISPR) System 

features a set of aggregate quarterly 

reports for capturing services to 

employer and job seeker customers, 

including a special aggregate report on 

services to the nation’s eligible veterans 

and transitioning service members. A 

standardized set of participant data that 

includes information on demographics, 

types of services received, and 

performance outcomes based on a set of 

common measures defined consistently 

across programs is a key component of 

this reporting system. The WISPR 

System also incorporates provisions to 

ensure the integrity of reported data and 

resolve data collection and reliability 

issues raised by the DOL Office of the 

Inspector General and the Government 

Accountability Office regarding the 

Department’s ability accurately to 

evaluate program performance. 

A Federal agency generally cannot 

conduct or sponsor a collection of 

information, and the public is generally 

not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

and displays a currently valid OMB 

Control Number. In addition, 

notwithstanding any other provisions of 

law, no person shall generally be subject 

to penalty for failing to comply with a 

collection of information if the 

collection of information does not 

display a valid OMB Control Number. 

See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The 

OMB Control Number for the WISPR 

System information collection is 1205– 

0469. For additional information, see 

the related notice published in the 

Federal Register on September 2, 2011 

(76 FR 54792). 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

send comments to the OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs at 

the address shown in the ADDRESSES

section within 30 days of publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

reference OMB Control Number 1205– 

0469. The OMB is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.
