DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree

Pursuant to the Clean Air Act

In accordance with 28 CFR 50.7,

notice is hereby given that on February

1, 2001, a proposed consent decree in

United States v. Natural Gas Pipeline

Company of America, Civil Action No.

99–S–2419, was lodged with the United

States District Court for the District of

Colorado.

In this action, the United States

sought civil penalties for alleged

violations of Section 113(b) of the Clean

Air Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. 7413(b),

resulting from the alleged failure of

Natural Gas Pipeline Company of

America (NGPL) to obtain a Prevention

of Significant Deterioration (PSD)

permit from the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) before

construction in May 1979 of a natural

gas compressor station, the Akron

Compressor Station (also known as the

‘‘Niobrara Compressor Station’’), located

in Washington County, Colorado. The

United States also alleges that NGPL

operated the Akron Compressor Station

as a major stationary source in violation

of the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7413, without an

appropriate PSD permit, and without

application of best available control

technology.

Under the terms of the proposed

consent decree, NGPL will pay a civil

penalty of $215,000 for alleged

violations of the CAA PSD program, and

implement a Supplemental

Environmental Project (SEP) that will be

valued at $100,000 in order to resolve

the United States’ claims. The SEP

requires NGPL to install equipment on

two gas-fired compressor engines at the

Crystal River Compressor Station in

Glenwood Springs, Colorado, and on

two gas-fired compressor engines at the

Well Draw Compressor Station in

Converse County, Wyoming. When the

SEP is completed, total nitrogen oxide

(NOX reductions at the two stations are

expected to be about 400 tons per year

(TPY). The proposed consent decree

does not require that NGPL take any

injunctive measures because NGPL no

longer owns the Akron Compressor

Station at issue in this case.

The Department of Justice will receive

comments relating to the proposed

consent decree for a period of thirty (30)

days from the date of this publication.

Comments should be addressed to the

Acting Assistant Attorney General for

the Environment and Natural Resources

Division, Department of Justice,

Washington, DC 20530, and should refer

to United States v. Natural Gas Pipeline

Company of America, Civil Action No.

99–S–2419, and Department of Justice

Reference No. 90–5–2–1–06728.

The proposed consent decree may be

examined at the Office of the United

States Attorney, 1225 17th Street, Suite

700, Denver, CO 80202; and at U.S. EPA

Region VIII, 999 18th Street, Denver,

Colorado 80202. A copy of the proposed

consent decree may be obtained by mail

from the Consent Decree Library, P.O.

Box 7611, Washington, DC 20044. In

requesting a copy, please enclose a

check in the amount of $7.50 (25 cents
