DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Proposed 

Consent Decree Under the Clean Air 

Act 

On December 20, 2017, the 

Department of Justice lodged a proposed 

consent decree with the United States 

District Court for the District of Arizona 

in the lawsuit entitled United States v. 

Apache Nitrogen Products, Inc., Civil 

Action No. 4:17–cv–00612–RCC. 

The proposed consent decree resolves 

claims set forth in a filed complaint for 

civil penalties and injunctive relief 

against Apache Nitrogen Products, Inc. 

(‘‘Apache’’ or ‘‘ANPI’’) for allegedly 

violating the Arizona State 

Implementation Plan (the ‘‘Arizona 

SIP’’), including the requirements for 

the Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration (‘‘PSD’’), as set forth in 

Arizona Administrative Code (‘‘AAC’’), 

which has been approved by the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(‘‘EPA’’) under Section 110 of the Clean 

Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7410, and for 

allegedly violating a federal standard of 

performance for new sources (‘‘NSPS’’) 

for nitric acid plants (40 CFR part 60, 

subpart G) promulgated under Section 

111 of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 

7411. 

Under the decree, Apache will 

perform a computer-simulated air flow 

study for a nitric acid production unit 

called ‘‘AOP–4’’ to determine, at a 

minimum, the feasibility of Selective 

Catalytic Reduction as a control 

technology. The results of the study will 

be submitted to Arizona Department of 

Environmental Quality (‘‘ADEQ’’), the 

permitting authority under the Arizona 

SIP, and ADEQ will make a Best 

Available Control Technology 

determination and issue an appropriate 

permit based on its finding. Under the 

proposed consent decree, Apache also 

will pay a civil penalty of $600,000.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Proposed 

Modification of Consent Decree Under 

the Clean Air Act 

On December 22, 2017, the 

Department of Justice lodged a proposed 

modification to a Consent Decree with 

the United States District Court for the 

Western District of Oklahoma in United 

States and the Oklahoma Department of 

Environmental Quality and the State of 

Alabama v. Continental Carbon 

Company, Civil Case No. 5:15–cv– 

00290–F (W.D. Okla.). 

The original Consent Decree was 

entered on May 7, 2015, and resolved 

civil claims under the Clean Air Act at 

the Defendant’s three carbon black 

manufacturing facilities located in 

Oklahoma, Alabama, and Texas. The 

Consent Decree imposed various 

pollution control requirements on 

Defendant’s facilities, including 

requirements related to sulfur dioxide, 

nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter 

emissions. At the Ponca City facility in 

Oklahoma and the Phenix City facility 

in Alabama, these pollution control 

requirements included, among other 

requirements, installation of Dry Gas 

Scrubber or Wet Gas Scrubber (‘‘DGS’’ 

or ‘‘WGS’’) systems designed to reduce 

sulfur dioxide emissions, and Selective 

Catalytic Reduction (‘‘SCR’’) systems to 

reduce nitrogen oxide emissions. The 

sulfur dioxide reduction systems are 

also expected to result in an ancillary 

reduction in particulate matter 

emissions. 

The parties have now agreed to 

modify certain Consent Decree 

deadlines. The modification resolve 

issues regarding the feasibility of the 

affected deadlines and resolves a 

potential dispute between the parties 

concerning them. The modification does 

not change Defendant’s ultimate 

obligation to install and operate 

pollution controls at its facilities. 

The publication of this notice opens 

a period for public comment on the 

proposed modification to the Consent 

Decree. Comments should be addressed 

to the Assistant Attorney General, 

Environment and Natural Resources 

Division, and should refer to United 

States et al. v. Continental Carbon 

Company, Civil Case No. 5:15–cv– 

00290–F (W.D. Okla.), D.J. Ref. No. 90–

the proposed modification to the 

Consent Decree may be examined and

BILLING CODE 4410–15–P 

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Proposed 

Consent Decree Under the Clean Air 

Act 

On December 22, 2017, the 

Department of Justice lodged a proposed 

Consent Decree with the United States 

District Court for the Western District of 

Louisiana in the lawsuit entitled United 

States and the State of Louisiana v. 

Orion Engineered Carbons, LLC (W.D. 

La.), Civil Action No. 6:17–cv–01660. 

In this civil enforcement action under 

the federal Clean Air Act (‘‘Act’’), the 

United States and the State of Louisiana 

allege that Orion Engineered Carbons, 

LLC (‘‘Defendant’’), failed to comply 

with certain requirements of the Act 

intended to protect air quality at four 

carbon black manufacturing facilities in 

Franklin, Louisiana, Borger, Texas, 

Orange, Texas, and Belpre, Ohio. The 

complaint seeks injunctive relief and 

civil penalties for violations of the Act’s 

Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

provisions, 42 U.S.C. 7470–92, the Act’s 

Nonattainment New Source Review 

provisions, 42 U.S.C. 7501–7515, the 

Act’s Title V permit provisions and 

certain operating permit requirements, 

42 U.S.C. 7661a–76661f, and various 

Clean Air Act implementing regulations. 

The complaint alleges that Defendant 

failed to obtain appropriate permits and 

failed to install and operate required 

pollution control devices to reduce 

emissions of sulfur dioxide (‘‘SO2’’), 

nitrogen oxides (‘‘NOX’’), and/or 

particulate matter (‘‘PM’’) at its four 

carbon black facilities. 

The proposed Consent Decree would 

resolve violations for certain provisions 

of the Act at the four facilities, and 

would require the Defendant to reduce 

harmful SO2, NOX, and PM emissions 

through the installation and operation of 

pollution controls. The Defendant will 

also spend $550,000 to fund 

environmental mitigation projects that 

will further reduce emissions and 

benefit communities adversely affected 

by the pollution from the facilities, and 

pay a civil penalty of $800,000. 

The publication of this notice opens 

a period for public comment on the 

proposed Consent Decree. Comments 

should be addressed to the Assistant
