Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree

Pursuant to Comprehensive

Environmental Response,

Compensation, and Liability Act

(CERCLA)

Notice is hereby given that a proposed

Consent Decree in United States v.

Tremont Landfill Company, et al., Civil

Action No. C–3–96–221 has been lodged

on June 17, 1996 with the United States

District Court for the Southern District

of Ohio, Western Division. The

proposed Consent Decree concerns the

Sanitary Landfill Superfund Site (the

‘‘Site’’) located at 1855 Cardington

Road, Moraine, Ohio. The Site was

operated by the Sanitary Landfill

Company, the predecessor to defendant

Tremont Landfill Company

(‘‘Tremont’’), and is owned by two

trusts. The Site was active from 1971 to

1980. During that time period, the landfill accepted municipal, commercial,

and industrial waste—both liquids and

solids—from local industries and

municipalities. These wastes included

sludges, paints, paint by-products,

asbestos and municipal incinerator

wastes. The Site was added to the

National Priorities List on June 10, 1986.

The Consent Decree requires sixteen

Settling Defendants, who together

represent approximately 49% of the

waste at the Site by volume, to perform

the estimated $8 million remedy. The

remedial action includes a low

permeability cap; gas collection and

treatment; surface run-off controls; longterm groundwater monitoring;

institutional controls; and a

supplemental site investigation (‘‘SSI’’)

for groundwater. The settlors also

agreed to prepay $60,000 of EPA’s

future oversight costs within 30 days of

entry of the decree and to pay 50% of

the United States’ estimated additional

oversight costs. In addition, the decree

includes the settlement of sixty-three

‘‘Premium Settling Defendants,’’ who

contributed less than .5% of the total

waste at the Site and elected to pay a

premium to the Settling Defendants to

obtain a de minimis settlement.

The Department of Justice will receive

comments concerning the proposed

Consent Decree for a period of thirty

(30) days from the date of this

publication. Comments should be

addressed to the Assistant Attorney

General, Environment and Natural

Resources Division, U.S. Department of

Justice, P.O. Box 7611, Ben Franklin

Station, Washington, D.C. 20044, and

Landfill Company, et al., D.O.J. Number

90–11–2–1113. Commenters may

request an opportunity for a public

meeting in the affected area, in

accordance with Section 7003(d) of

RCRA.

The proposed Consent Decree may be

examined at any of the following offices:

(1) the Office of the United States

Attorney for the Southern District of

Ohio, Western Division, 602 Federal

Building, 200 West Second Street,

Dayton, Ohio 45402, (513) 225–2910; (2)

Mine Safety and Health Administration

Petitions for Modification

The following parties have filed

petitions to modify the application of

mandatory safety standards under

section 101(c) of the Federal Mine

Safety and Health Act of 1977.

1. Kade Coal Company, Inc.

[Docket No. M–96–36–C]

Kade Coal Company, Inc., Route 1,

Box 513, Grundy, Virginia 24614 has

filed a petition to modify the

application of 30 CFR 77.214(a) (refuse

piles; general) to its Mine No. 2 (I.D. No.

44–06483) located in Buchanan County,

Virginia. The petitioner proposes to

cover several entries at each abandoned

mine opening with coarse refuse

material during construction of a refuse

fill. Presently, the petitioner is

depositing coarse refuse material on the

existing Red Ash seam bench (Refuse

Disposal No: 1211–VA5–0297). The

petitioner requests this modification of

the standard, to allow four drift

openings to be filled with refuse where

drift entries to old mine workings at

Mine No. 3 (I.D. No. 44–06310) exist,

during construction of refuse fill. The

petitioner asserts that the proposed

alternative method would provide at

least the same measure of protection as

would the mandatory standard.

2. Monterey Coal Company

[Docket No. M–96–37–C]

Monterey Coal Company, Rural Route

4, Box 235, Carlinville, Illinois 62626
