DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Clean 
Water Act

    On February 2, 2016, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
consent decree with the United States District Court for the District 
of Utah in the lawsuit entitled United States and State of Utah v. Salt 
Lake County, Utah, Civil Action No. 2:16cv87BCW.
    The United States filed this lawsuit under the Clean Water Act. The 
complaint seeks injunctive relief and civil penalties. The complaint 
alleges that the defendant violated the Clean Water Act by failing to 
comply with the terms and conditions of a National Pollutant Discharge 
Elimination System (``NPDES'') permit, issued to the County for 
discharges of storm water from the County's municipal separate storm 
sewer system (``MS4''). The consent decree requires the defendant to 
perform injunctive relief to bring it into compliance with its NPDES 
permit and to pay a $280,000 civil penalty.
    The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on 
the consent decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant 
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and 
should refer to United States and State of Utah v. Salt Lake County, 
Utah, D.J. Ref. No. 90-5-1-1-10984. All comments must be submitted no
