DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

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

    In accordance with Departmental policy, 28 C.F.R. 50.7, and Section 
122(d)(3) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and 
Liability Act (``CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. 9622(d)(2), notice is hereby 
given that a proposed consent decree in United States v. Cornell-
Dubilier Electronics, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 92-11865-K, was 
lodged on January 4, 1995, with the United States District Court for 
the District of Massachusetts. The proposed decree resolves the United 
States' claims under CERCLA against defendant the City of New Bedford, 
Massachusetts (``City'') with respect to the first operable unit at the 
Sullivan's Ledge Superfund Site, in New Bedford, Massachusetts. The 
City owned and operated the Site, to which hazardous substances were 
sent for disposal. Under the terms of the proposed decree, the City 
will assume operation and maintenance of EPA's selected remedy for the 
first operable unit remedy after 30 years, when the obligations of 
other settlers under a previously negotiated consent decree relating to 
the first operable unit will cease.
    The Department of Justice will receive, for a period of thirty (30) 
days from the date of this publication, comments relating to the 
proposed consent decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant 
Attorney General for the Environment and Natural Resources Division,

States v. Cornell-Dubilier Electronics, Inc., et al., DOJ Ref. #90-11-
2-388A.

United States Attorney, 1107 J.W. McCormack Building, POCH, Boston, 
Massachusetts; the Region I Office of the Environmental Protection 
Agency, John F. Kennedy Federal Building, Boston, Massachusetts; and at
