DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Three Consent Decrees Pursuant to the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act

    Notice is hereby given that on October 7, 2008, three proposed 
consent decrees in United States v. Belle Tire Distr., Inc., et al., 
No. 06cv0816, were lodged with the United States District Court for the 
Western District of Michigan.
    In this cost recovery action brought pursuant to the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. 9607, 
the United States sought recovery of unreimbursed past response costs 
and prejudgment interest incurred by the United States Environmental 
Protection Agency for a removal action at the Carl's Tire Retreading 
Site near Grawn in Grand Traverse County, Michigan. Under the three 
proposed consent decrees, three defendants will pay a total of $28,500 
to the Hazardous Substance Superfund, an amount determined based upon 
an analysis of their ability to pay a settlement or judgment.
