DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Correction to Previously Published Notice of Consent Decree in 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Action

    In accordance with the Departmental Policy, 28 CFR 50.7, on 
November 7, 1996, a notice was published in the Federal Register that 
two Consent Decrees in United States v. Ralph Riehl, et al., Civil 
Action No. 89-226(E), were lodged with the United States District Court 
for the Western District of Pennsylvania on October 21, 1996. The 
notice incorrectly stated the amount of response costs to be paid by 
Bethlehem Steel Corp. pursuant to one of the Consent Decrees. 
Therefore, the following corrected notice is being published.
    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. 9607(a). In September 1991, the United States added 
additional defendants to the action. The two proposed Consent Decrees 
resolve the liability of Bethlehem Steel Corp. and United Brass Works, 
Keystone Foundry Division. These Consent Decrees resolve the liability 
of the above-named defendants for the response costs incurred and to be 
incurred by the United States at the Site. Bethlehem Steel will pay 
$75,000 in response costs and United Brass Works will pay $197,500 in 
response costs.
    The Department of Justice will accept written comments relating to 
these proposed Consent Decrees for fifteen (15) days from the date of 
publication of this notice. Please address comments to the Assistant 
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, 
Department of Justice, P.O. Box 7611, Ben Franklin Station, Washington, 
D.C. 20044 and refer to United States v. Ralph Riehl, et al., DOJ No. 
90-11-3-519.
    Copies of the proposed Consent Decrees may be examined at the 
Office of the United States Attorney, Western District of Pennsylvania, 
Federal Building and Courthouse, Room 137, 6th and States Streets, 
Erie, Pennsylvania, 15219; Region III Office of the Environmental
