DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA)

    Notice is hereby given that on January 9, 2009, a proposed Consent 
Decree (Decree) in United States v. Citibank Global Market Holdings, 
Inc., Civil Action No. 09-CV-4002-SAC, was lodged with the United 
States District Court for the District of Kansas.
    In this action the United States, on behalf of the U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency, sought to recover CERCLA response 
costs from Citibank Global Holdings, Inc. and U.S. Steel Corporation. 
The costs were incurred for the National Zinc Superfund Site (Site) in 
Cherryvale, Kansas. The Complaint alleges that Defendants are liable as 
successors to owners or operators of a smelter that was located and 
operated at the Site. The Decree would settle the government's claim 
for past response costs in return for a total payment of $1 million 
into the Hazardous Substances Superfund.
