DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act

    On September 1, 2015, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
consent decree with the United States District Court for the District 
of Maine in the lawsuit entitled United States and State of Maine v. 
Maine Mack, Inc., et al., Civil No.: 1:15-00358-NT.
    In this action the United States sought recovery, pursuant to the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act 
(``CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq., of response costs regarding the 
Hows Corner Superfund Site in Plymouth, Maine (``Site''). The 
settlement requires two parties to pay $98,409 into a trust account 
that was established to help fund the cleanup at the Site. The 
settlement resolves the United States' and the State's claims against 
these defendants regarding the Site.
