DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Corrected Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Pursuant to the 
Clean Water Act (``CWA'') and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, 
Compensation and Liability Act (``CERCLA'')

    On April 7, 2000, a Notice of Lodging was published in the Federal 
Register stating that a Consent Decree had been lodged in United States 
v. Gulf States Steel, Inc., in the United States District Court for the 
Northern District of Alabama on March 28, 2000 (CV-97-BU-2755-M). See 
65 FR 18351 (April 7, 2000).
    This Notice of Lodging contained a typographical error. 
Specifically, the original Notice of Lodging stated that Gulf States 
Steel had agreed to undertake certain Supplemental Environmental 
Projects (SEPs) in the amount of at least $206 million as part of its 
Consent Decree resolving its Clean Water Act liability. The actual SEP 
amount contained in the Consent Decree with the United States is 42.6 
million.
    Due to the typographical error in the original publication, the 
Department of Justice will extend the comment period for an additional 
ten (10) days. Thus, the Department of Justice will receive, for a 
period of forty (40) days from the date of the original Federal 
Register publication, comments relating to the proposed Consent Decree. 
Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General for the 
Environment and Natural Resources Division, U.S. Department of Justice, 
P.O. Box 7611, Washington, DC 20044; and refer to United States v. Gulf 
States Steel, Inc., DOJ Ref. #90-5-1-1-4211.
    The proposed settlement agreement may be examined at the Office of 
the United States Attorney, 1800 Fifth Avenue, North, Birmingham, 
Alabama, 35203, and at the office of the Environmental Protection 
Agency, Region 4, 61 Forsyth Street, SW., Atlanta, GA 30303. In 
requesting a copy, please refer to the referenced case and enclose a 
check in the amount of $4.25 (25 cents per page reproduction costs).

Bruce Gelber,
Deputy Chief, Environmental Enforcement Section, Environment and 
Natural Resources Division.
