DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Proposed 

Stipulation of Settlement and 

Judgment Under the System Unit 

Resource Protection Act 

On October 17, 2024, the Department 

of Justice lodged a proposed Stipulation 

of Settlement and Judgment 

(‘‘Stipulation’’) with the United States 

District Court for the Eastern District of 

Washington in the lawsuit entitled 

United States v. Avista Corporation, 

Civil Action No. 2:24–cv–00358–JAG. 

The United States filed this lawsuit 

under the System Unit Resource 

Protection Act and Washington State 

and federal trespass law. The complaint 

alleges that defendant Avista 

Corporation’s unauthorized activities to 

stabilize, move, and replace an 

unpermitted power pole within the Lake 

Roosevelt National Recreation Area (the 

‘‘Park’’) in northeastern Washington 

caused significant injuries to cultural 

and natural resources at the Park. The 

complaint seeks recovery of damages 

and response costs. 

Under the Stipulation, Defendant will 

pay $900,000 to the U.S. Department of 

the Interior, National Park Service, for 

response costs and damages, with 

interest.

of Justice published a notice in the 

Federal Register opening a public 

comment period on the Stipulation for 

a period of thirty (30) days, through 

November 21, 2024. Due to a technical 

error in posting the Stipulation on the 

Department of Justice’s website, the 

Stipulation was inadvertently removed 

from the website on October 23, 2024. 

The Stipulation was reposted to the 

Department of Justice’s website on 

November 18, 2024. By this notice, the 

Department of Justice is extending the
