SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Introduction 

With this notice, we complete the 

CCP process for Crane Meadows NWR, 

which we began by publishing a notice 

of intent on (73 FR 76677–76678, 

December 17, 2008). For more 

information about the initial process, 

see that notice. We released the draft 

CCP and EA to the public, announcing 

and requesting comments in a notice of 

availability on (75 FR 39037–39038, July 

7, 2010). 

Crane Meadows NWR, located in 

central Minnesota, was established in 

1992 to protect one of the largest, most 

intact wetland complexes remaining in 

the State. The Refuge owns 

approximately 1,800 acres of 13,540 

acres identified for acquisition, and an 

additional 900 acres are owned and 

managed by the Minnesota Department 

of Natural Resources. In addition to 

hosting relatively rare habitat types 

including oak savanna, sand prairie, and 

sedge meadow, it also provides key 

habitat for local and migratory wildlife, 

maintains essential ecological services, 

provides an element of water control 

and flood relief, protects important 

archaeological resources, and offers 

unique recreation, education, and 

research opportunities. 

The Draft CCP and EA were officially 

released for public review on July 7, 

2010; the 31-day comment period ended 

on August 6, 2010. Planning 

information was sent to approximately 

265 individuals and organizations for 

review and announced through local 

media outlets, resulting in three 

comment submissions. During the 

comment period the Refuge also hosted 

an open house to receive public 

comments and feedback on the CCP and 

EA documents. Three individuals 

attended this event—all current or 

former state Department of Natural 

Resources employees. Because no 

changes to the preferred alternative 

were recommended by Refuge 

audiences during the public review 

period, only minor changes were made 

to the drafts in preparing the final CCP/ 

EA documents. 

Selected Alternative 

Based on input and feedback during 

the planning process, alternative B was 

selected as the preferred alternative. 

This alternative portrays a long-term 

vision for habitat restoration to nearhistoric benchmark conditions and 

increases recreation opportunities for 

visitors over the 15-year planning 

horizon. A diversity of wetland and 

savanna habitats are favored reinforcing 

historic conditions, while prairie and 

woodland are reduced over the longterm. This alternative includes active 

participation in monitoring and 

improving upstream water resources, 

calls for adherence to a well-developed 

prescribed fire plan, increases land 

acquisition and work on private lands in 

high priority areas, augments the 

existing biological inventory and 

monitoring program, and offers visitor 

services in a greater number of 

locations. Specific, managed hunts are 

offered, and opportunities for quality 

fishing experiences will be evaluated as 

new lands are acquired. 

Background 

The National Wildlife Refuge System 

Administration Act of 1966, as amended 

by the National Wildlife Refuge System 

Improvement Act of 1997 (16 U.S.C. 

668dd-668ee et seq.), requires the 

Service to develop a CCP for each 

National Wildlife Refuge. The purpose 

in developing a CCP is to provide refuge 

managers with a 15-year strategy for 

achieving refuge purposes and 

contributing toward the mission of the 

National Wildlife Refuge System, 

consistent with sound principles of fish 

and wildlife management, conservation, 

legal mandates, and Service policies. In 

addition to outlining broad management 

direction for conserving wildlife and 

their habitats, the CCP identifies 

wildlife-dependent recreational 

opportunities available to the public, 

including opportunities for hunting, 

fishing, wildlife observation and 

photography, and environmental 

education and interpretation. 

We will review and update the CCP 

at least every 15 years in accordance 

with the National Wildlife Refuge 

System Administration Act of 1966, as 

amended by the National Wildlife 

Refuge System Improvement Act of 

1997, and the National Environmental 

Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321– 

4370d).

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree 

Under the Clean Air Act; the Clean 

Water Act; the Resource Conservation 

and Recovery Act; the Emergency 

Planning and Community Right-ToKnow Act; and the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act 

Notice is hereby given that on October 

8, 2010, a proposed Consent Decree in 

United States and State of Missouri v. 

The Doe Run Resources Corporation, et 

al., Civil Action 4:10-cv-1895 was 

lodged with the United States District 

Court for the Eastern District of 

Missouri. 

In this action the United States and 

the State of Missouri sought civil 

penalties and injunctive relief for 

environmental violations of the Clean 

Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q; the 

Missouri Air Conservation Law, Chapter 

643, RSMo; the Resource Conservation 

and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. 6901– 

6992k; the Missouri Hazardous Waste 

Management Law, §§ 260.350–260.434, 

RSMo; the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 

1251–1387; the Missouri Clean Water 

Law, Chapter 644, RSMo; the 

Emergency Planning and Community 

Right-to-Know Act, 42 U.S.C. 11001– 

11050; and the Comprehensive 

Environmental Response, 

Compensation, and Liability Act, 42 

U.S.C. 9601–9603 at several of the 

mining, milling, and smelting facilities 

located in Missouri owned and operated 

by The Doe Run Resources Corporation, 

The Doe Run Resources Corporation 

d/b/a ‘‘The Doe Run Company’’, and The 

Buick Resource Recycling Facility, LLC 

(‘‘Defendants’’). To resolve the United 

States’ and State’s claims the 

Defendants will pay a civil penalty of $7 

million. The penalty will be paid in a 

$3.5 million payment to the United 

States and a $1.5 million payment to the 

state of Missouri, with an additional $1 

million plus interest to be paid to the 

state each year for the next two years. 

The settlement also requires Doe Run to 

establish financial assurance trust funds 

for the cleanup of the following active 

or former mining and milling facilities: 

Brushy Creek, Buick, Fletcher, 

Sweetwater, Viburnum, and West Fork. 

Doe Run will also take steps to address 

RCRA violations at certain facilities; 

finalize and come into compliance with 

more stringent Clean Water Act permits 

at 10 of its facilities, including 

Herculaneum, Glover, Brushy Creek, 

Buick Mill, Fletcher, Sweetwater, 

Viburnum, West Fork, Mine #35 

(Casteel), and Buick Resource Recycling; 

and will spend an estimated $5.8 

million on stream mitigation activities 

along 8.5 miles of Bee Fork Creek, an 

impaired waterway near Doe Run’s 

Fletcher mine and mill facility. At four 

facilities, Buick Mine, Brushy Creek, 

Fletcher, and Sweetwater, Doe Run will 

also enclose the lead concentrate 

handling, loading, and storage areas 

under negative pressure with emissions 

routed to a baghouse. The company will 

also spend $2 million on community 

mitigation projects over the next four 

years. 

In addition, instead of installing 

pollution control technologies needed to 

reduce sulfur dioxide and lead 

emissions as required by the Clean Air 

Act, Doe Run has made a business 

decision to shut down its lead smelter 

in Herculaneum, Mo., by Dec. 31, 2013. 

The company will also provide an 

initial $8.14 million in financial 

assurance to guarantee cleanup work at 

the Herculaneum facility. 

The Department of Justice will receive 

for a period of 30 days from the date of 

this publication comments relating to 

the Consent Decree. Comments should
