Notice of Lodging of Partial Consent Decree; Under the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 
42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq.

    Notice is hereby given that on October 4, 2002, a proposed partial 
consent decree (``consent decree'') in United States vs. Brighton 
Township, Civil Action No. 94-CV-75289-DT, was lodged with the United 
States District Curt for the Eastern District of Michigan.
    In this action the United States sought recovery, under section 
107(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and 
Liability Act (``CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. 9607(a), of response costs 
incurred in connection with a property formerly operated as a dump or 
disposal area on Corlett Road in Brighton Township, Livingston County, 
Michigan (``Site''). The consent decree resolves the United States' 
claims against Brighton Township, which is alleged to be liable as a 
result of having operated the Site. The consent decree recovers 
$595,000 in response costs relating to the site.
