DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
 

Consent Decree in Action Brought Under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act

    Notice is hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in United 
States v. Boehringer, Civil Action No. 8:CV93-303, was lodged with the 
United States District Court for the District of Nebraska on July 27, 
1994. This Consent Decree resolves a Complaint filed by the United 
States against Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health, Inc. 
(``Boehringer'') pursuant to Section 107 of the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (``CERCLA''), 42 
U.S.C. Sec. 9607.
    The United States Department of Justice brought this action on 
behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, seeking to recover 
costs incurred by EPA in response to releases of hazardous substances 
at the Economy Products warehouse (``the warehouse''), located in 
downtown Omaha, Nebraska.
    The settlement in this case requires defendant Boehringer to 
reimburse the United States in the amount of $100,000.00 for cleanup 
costs incurred by EPA at the warehouse. This settlement figure is based 
on the minimal amount of hazardous substances sent to the warehouse by 
Boehringer.

this proposed Consent Decree for thirty (30) days from the date of 
publication of this notice. Please address comments to the Assistant
