DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree 

Under the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation and Liability Act 

Notice is hereby given that on May 10, 

2010, a proposed Consent Decree (the 

‘‘Decree’’) in United States v. Precious 

Metals, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:10–cv– 

02387 (JEI–AMD), was lodged with the 

United States District Court for the 

District of New Jersey. 

In a complaint, filed simultaneously 

with the Decree, the United States 

alleges that Precious Metals, Inc. is 

liable pursuant to Section 107(a)(3) of 

the Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability 

Act (‘‘CERCLA’’), 42 U.S.C. 9607(a)(3), 

for response costs incurred by the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(‘‘EPA’’) in cleaning up the Pioneer 

Smelting Superfund Site located at 

Factory Road, Route 532, in Chatsworth, 

New Jersey. 

Pursuant to the Decree, Precious 

Metals will make an initial payment of 

$70,000 and then a contingency 

payment not to exceed $80,000. The 

exact amount of the contingency 

payment will be based on Precious 

Metals, Inc. financial capabilities three 

months after the Consent Decree has 

been entered by the Court. The 

payments will resolve any claim the 

United States has against Precious 

Metals, Inc. associated with costs 

incurred by EPA at the Pioneer Smelting 

Superfund Site. 

The Department of Justice will 

receive, for a period of thirty (30) days

BILLING CODE 4410–CW–P 

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree 

Under the Resource Conservation and 

Recovery Act 

Notice is hereby given that on May 17, 

2010, a proposed consent decree in 

United States v. Tanana Oil Corp., et al., 

Civil Action No. 05–2540, was lodged 

with the United States District Court for 

the District of Maryland. 

In this action the United States asked 

the court to order Tri-Angle Holding 

Company to clean up petroleum 

products that the United States alleges 

leaked from underground storage tanks 

owned or operated by the defendants at 

Tanana Oil Station #409, formerly 

located at 7526 North Point Road, 

Edgemere, Maryland. The United States 

also sought civil penalties from the 

defendants for violating regulations 

regarding underground storage tanks 

and for failing to comply with an 

administrative order requiring 

defendants to clean up the leaked 

petroleum products. The United States 

obtained default judgment on April 16, 

2006, ordering Tri-Angle Holding 

Company to clean up the petroleum 

contamination and ordering the 

defendants to pay $760,000 in civil 

penalties. If approved, the consent 

decree would replace the default 

judgment and would require two 

individuals, not previously named as 

defendants in this matter, to perform the 

cleanup work in accordance with a 

corrective action plan attached to the 

consent decree and to pay a civil 

penalty of $69,000 in two installments. 

The Department of Justice will receive 

for a period of thirty (30) days from the 

date of this publication comments 

relating to the consent decree. 

Comments should be addressed to the 

Assistant Attorney General, 

Environment and Natural Resources 

Division, and either e-mailed to 

pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov or 

mailed to P.O. Box 7611, U.S. 

Department of Justice, Washington, DC

States v. Tanana Oil Company, D.J. Ref.
