DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree 

Under the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation and Liability Act 

Notice is hereby given that on 

September 12, 2005, a proposed Consent 

Decree in United States v. E.I. Du Pont 

de Nemours and Company, et al. Civil 

Action No. 1:03CV29 (and related case 

E.I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company 

v. United States, Civil Action No. 

1:02CV177) was lodged with the United 

States District Court for Northern 

District of West Virginia. 

In the United States v. DuPont, et al. 

action, the United States seeks the 

recovery of response costs incurred in 

connection with Ordinance Works 

Disposal Areas Superfund Site, located 

in Morgantown, West Virginia (Site ID 

number WV000850404). The United 

States’ original complaint, filed in 2003, 

named only DuPont as a defendant; an 

amended complaint that was filed 

simultaneously with the proposed 

consent decree, adds as defendants 

EPEC Polymers, Inc., General Electric 

Company, Olin Corporation, and 

Rockwell Automation. In the Amended 

Complaint the United States alleges that 

each defendant owned and/or operated 

the Site at the time of disposal or 

treatment, and/or arranged for the 

disposal and/or treatment of wastes 

containing hazardous substances at the 

Site, within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. 

9607(a). 

Under the proposed consent decree 

EPEC Polymers, Olin Corp. and 

Rockwell Automation (the defendants 

who performed the remedial action at 

the Site, or the ‘‘Performing 

Defendants’’) will reimburse to EPA past 

response costs paid at the Site in the 

amount of $1,532,174.65, plus interest. 

Further, under the proposed Consent 

Decree, the United States, on behalf of 

the United States Army and other 

federal departments and agencies, shall: 

(1) Reimburse to EPA past response 

costs in the amount of $1,760,700.17; 

and (2) reimburse the Performing 

Defendants their past response costs in 

the amount of $2,420,082.80 plus 

interest. Additionally, under the 

proposed consent decree the United 

States, on behalf of the Settling Federal 

Agencies, has committed to paying EPA 

and the State of West Virginia 53.47% 

of their future response costs, and the 

Performing Defendants have committed 

to paying EPA and the State of West 

Virginia 46.53% of their future response 

costs. Because the United States, 

pursuant to a judicial decision, is 

required to indemnify DuPont for costs 

it incurred in connection with the 

Ordnance Works Site, DuPont will not 

be making a payment under this Decree. 

The Department of Justice will receive 

for a period of thirty (30) days from the 

date of this publication comments 

relating to this Consent Decree in United 

States v. DuPont, et al. Comments 

should be addressed to the Assistant 

Attorney General, Environment and 

Natural Resources Division, P.O. Box 

7611, U.S. Department of Justice, 

Washington, DC 20044–7611, and 

should refer to United States v. DuPont, 

et al., D.J. Ref. 90–11–2–369/2. 

The United States v. DuPont, et al. 

Consent Decree may be examined at the 

Office of the United States Attorney for 

the Northern District of West Virginia, at 

the Clarksburg Federal Center, 320 West 

Pike Street, Suite 300, Clarksburg, West 

Virginia 26301–2710 (ask for Alan 

McGonigal) and at U.S. EPA Region III’s 

Office, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, 

PA (ask for Andrew Goldman). During 

the public comment period, the United 

States v. DuPont, et al. consent decree, 

may also be examined on the following 

Department of Justice Web site, 

http:www.usdoj.gov/enrd/open/html. A

obtained by mail from the Consent

Department of Justice, Washington, DC 

20044–7611 or by faxing or e-mailing a

(tonia.fleetwood@usdoj.gov), fax no. 

(202) 514–0097, phone confirmation 

number (202) 514–1547. In requesting a 

copy from the Consent Decree Library, 

please enclose a check in the amount of 

$55.00 (25 cents per page reproduction 

cost) for a full copy of the consent 

decree, or $14.00, for a copy without

(Public Law 104–13), NARA invites the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies to comment on proposed 

information collections. The comments 

and suggestions should address one or

Whether the proposed information 

collections are necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of NARA; 

(b) the accuracy of NARA’s estimate of 

the burden of the proposed information

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including the use of 

information technology; and (e) whether 

small businesses are affected by this 

collection. The comments that are

included in the NARA request for Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

approval. All comments will become a 

matter of public record. In this notice, 

NARA is soliciting comments 

concerning the following information 

collections: 

1. Title: Application for attendance at 

the Institute for the Editing of Historical 

Documents. 

OMB number: 3095–0012. 

Agency form number: None. 

Type of review: Regular. 

Affected public: Individuals, often 

already working on documentary 

editing projects, who wish to apply to 

attend the annual one-week Institute for 

the Editing of Historical Documents, an 

intensive seminar in all aspects of 

modern documentary editing techniques 

taught by visiting editors and 

specialists. 

Estimated number of respondents: 25. 

Estimated time per response: 1.5 

hours. 

Frequency of response: On occasion, 

no more than annually (when 

respondent wishes to apply for 

attendance at the Institute). 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

37.5 hours. 

Abstract: The application is used by 

the NHPRC staff to establish the 

applicant’s qualifications and to permit 

selection of those individuals best 

qualified to attend the Institute jointly 

sponsored by the NHPRC, the 

Wisconsin Historical Society, and the 

University of Wisconsin. Selected 

applicants’ forms are forwarded to the 

resident advisors of the Institute, who 

use them to determine what areas of 

instruction would be most useful to the 

applicants. 

You can also use NARA’s Web site at 

http://www.archives.gov/nhprc/forms/ 

editing-application.pdf to review and 

fill in the application. 

2. Title: National Historical 

Publications and Records Commission 

Grant Program. 

OMB number: 3095–0013. 

Agency form number: None. 

Type of review: Regular. 

Affected public: Nonprofit 

organizations and institutions, state and 

local government agencies, Federally

Native American tribes or groups, and 

individuals who apply for NHPRC 

grants for support of historical 

documentary editions, archival 

preservation and planning projects, and 

other records projects. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

148 per year submit applications; 

approximately 100 grantees among the 

applicant respondents also submit 

semiannual narrative performance 

reports. 

Estimated time per response: 54 hours 

per application; 2 hours per narrative 

report. 

Frequency of response: On occasion 

for the application; semiannually for the 

narrative report. Currently, the NHPRC 

considers grant applications 2 times per 

year; respondents usually submit no 

more than one application per year. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

8,392 hours. 

Abstract: The NHPRC is changing the 

way it provides information about its 

grant program. The previously all 

inclusive grant guidelines booklet is 

being replaced by a suite of 

announcements where the information 

will be specific to the grant opportunity 

named. The basic information collection 

remains the same. The grant proposal is 

used by the NHPRC staff, reviewers, and 

the Commission to determine if the 

applicant and proposed project are 

eligible for an NHPRC grant, and 

whether the proposed project is 

methodologically sound and suitable for 

support. The narrative report is used by 

the NHPRC staff to monitor the 

performance of grants. 

You can also use NARA’s Web site at 

http://www.archives.gov/nhprc/ 

guidelines/index.html to review the 

guidelines. The forms used to apply for 

a grant can be found at http://
