DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging a Final Judgment by Consent Pursuant to the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act 
(CERCLA)

    In accordance with the Departmental Policy, 28 C.F.R. Sec. 50.7 
notice is hereby given that a consent decree in United States v. Ralph 
Riehl, et al., Civil Action No. 89-226E, was lodged with the United 
States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on May 
3, 1996.
    On October 16, 1989, the United States filed a complaint against 
the owners and operator of, and certain transporters to, the Millcreek 
Dump Superfund Site (the ``Site''), pursuant to Section 107(a) of the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act 
(CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. Sec. 9607(a). In June 1992, the United States added 
certain ``generator'' defendants, including Alco Industries, Inc. 
(Alco), to the action. The consent decree is a ``cash-out'' decree 
which requires a payment of $325,000.00 and resolves the United States' 
cost claims against Alco and related corporate entities, for response 
costs incurred and to be incurred at the Millcreek Site.
