DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

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

    In accordance with Departmental policy, 28 CFR 50.7, and 42 U.S.C. 
9622(d)(2), notice is hereby given that a proposed amendment to the 
consent decree in United States v. GATX Corporation and General 
American Transportation Corporation, Civil Action No. 94-312E, was 
lodged on June 1, 1995 with the United States District Court for the 
Western District of Pennsylvania. The original Consent Decree requires 
the defendants to excavate and incinerate contaminated soils and 
sludges at the Site at the Saegertown Industrial Area Site in 
Saegertown, Crawford County, Pennsylvania. The Consent Decree also 
requires the defendants to pay a portion of the United States past and 
future costs associated with the Site. Further, the consent decree 
requires the defendants to reimburse the United States for damages 
caused to the natural resources within the trusteeship of the U.S. Fish 
and Wildlife Service.
    The proposed amendment to the Consent Decree modifies the clean up 
that the defendants must perform. Instead of on-site incineration, the 
proposed amendment would require transportation of the sludges and 
soils to an off-site cement kiln, where the materials will be used as 
an alternative fuel.
    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, 
Department of Justice, Washington, D.C. 20530, and should refer to 
United States v. GATX Corporation and General American Transportation 
Corporation, DOJ Ref. #90-11-2-870.
    The proposed consent decree may be examined at the office of the 
United States Attorney, 633 Post Office & Courthouse, 7th & Grant 
Streets, Pittsburgh, PA 15219; the Region III Office of the 
Environmental Protection Agency, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia, 
Pennsylvania 19107; and at the Consent Decree Library, 1120 G Street, 
NW., 4th Floor, Washington, DC 20005, (202) 624-0892. A copy of the 
proposed consent decree may be obtained in person or by mail from the 
Consent Decree Library, 1120 G Street, N.W., 4th Floor, Washington, 
D.C. 20005. In requesting a copy please refer to the referenced case 
and enclose a check in the amount of $44.55 (25 cents per page 
reproduction costs), payable to the Consent Decree Library.
Bruce S. Gelbert,
Acting Chief, Environmental Enforcement Section, Environment and 
Natural Resources Division.
