DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Proposed 

Consent Decree Under the Clean Air 

Act 

On November 21, 2024, the 

Department of Justice lodged a proposed 

Consent Decree with the United States 

District Court for the Western District of 

Pennsylvania in the lawsuit entitled 

United States and Commonwealth of 

Pennsylvania v. Hilcorp Energy 

Company, Civil Action No. 2:24–cv– 

01596 (W.D. Pa). 

The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief 

and civil penalties for violations of the 

Clean Air Act and its implementing 

regulations at oil and natural gas 

production facilities owned and 

operated by Hilcorp Energy Company 

(‘‘Hilcorp’’) in Lawrence and Mercer 

Counties, Pennsylvania. The violations 

relate to alleged failures to adequately 

design, operate, and maintain storage 

tank vapor control systems, resulting in 

emissions of volatile organic 

compounds (‘‘VOC’’) and other 

pollutants to the atmosphere. 

The proposed consent decree covers 

nine Hilcorp facilities in Pennsylvania. 

The proposed decree requires Hilcorp to 

perform injunctive relief, including 

conducting engineering evaluations of 

the vapor control systems at each of the 

controlled well pads to ensure that they 

are adequately sized and designed, and 

complete an environmental mitigation 

project. Hilcorp must also pay a 

$1,275,000 civil penalty. Entering into 

and fully complying with the proposed 

consent decree would release Hilcorp 

from past civil liability for violations of 

Clean Air Act regulations applicable to 

new and modified storage vessels and 

related state law at the facilities subject 

to the proposed consent decree. 

The publication of this notice opens 

a period for public comment on the 

proposed Consent Decree. Comments 

should be addressed to the Assistant 

Attorney General, Environment and 

Natural Resources Division, and should
