Notice of Lodging of Consent DecreeUnder the Clean Air Act and 
Other Environmental Statutes

    Notice is hereby given that on August 19, 2008, a proposed Consent 
Decree in United States v. Burlington Resins, Inc., d/b/a Colorite 
Specialty Resins, Inc., Civil Action No. 08-01432 (RBK), was lodged 
with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.
    In this action, the United States sought a civil penalty and 
injunctive relief for violations of the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401, 
et seq., the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251, et seq., the Resource 
Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. 6901, et seq., the Toxic 
Substances Control Act, 15 U.S.C. 2601, et seq., and the Emergency 
Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, 42 U.S.C. 11001, et seq., as 
well as regulations promulgated under those statutes, including the 
National Emission Standard for Vinyl Chloride at 40 CFR Part 61, 
Subpart F, in connection with the polyvinyl chloride manufacturing 
facility that the settling defendant, Colorite Specialty Resins, Inc. 
(Colorite), operates at 116 Beverly Road, Burlington, New Jersey. The 
Consent Decree requires Colorite to implement injunctive relief to 
bring its facility into compliance, including reducing vinyl chloride 
emissions, implementing a comprehensive leak detection and repair 
program, and instituting better hazardous waste handling practices. The 
Decree also requires Colorite to pay a $1.3 million civil penalty to 
the United States and the State of New Jersey and to perform 
supplemental environmental projects worth $1.1 million.
