 On December 5, 2023, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the Central District of Illinois in the lawsuit entitled 
                    *United States et al.*
                     v. 
                    *TCI Pacific Communications LLC,*
                     Case No. 23-4218. The proposed Consent Decree settles claims brought by the United States under Sections 106 and 107 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. 9606 and 9607 against TCI Pacific Communications LLC (“Defendant”) seeking reimbursement of response costs and performance of remedial measures with respect to Operable Unit 4 (“OU4”) of the DePue/New Jersey Zinc/Mobil Chemical Corp. Superfund Site in DePue, Illinois. The Consent Decree would also resolve claims brought by the State of Illinois under CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9607 and the Illinois Environmental Protection Act, 415 ILCS 5/22.2 and 5/42 (d) and (e), for performance of a remedial action and recovery of the State's unreimbursed costs incurred at or in connection with OU4 at the Site. The Consent Decree requires Defendants to pay the United States a total of $368,831.16 in EPA's response costs and perform the remedial “Work” defined in the Scope of Work, attached to the Consent Decree as Appendix B. The Work consists of excavation of contaminated soil and Site-related material from residences, parks, and alleys, backfilling with clean soil, revegetation, and stockpiling and management of the excavated fill in the Former Plant Site Area of OU3.
