DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Corrected Federal Register Notice

    On December 14, 2006, the Federal Register notice of the lodging of 
a Consent Decree under the Clean Air Act and the Resource Conservation 
and Recovery Act in the matter of United States v. Von Roll America, 
Inc., Civil Action No. 4:06 CV 2893 (N.D. Ohio). The notice contained a 
typographical error. It stated that as part of the settlement, the 
defendant would change out the primary box in its new carbon absorption 
system whenever Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems data showed 
``THCs of 5 ppm of greater on a 60 minute rolling average.'' Instead of 
``5 ppm,'' the notice should have said ``50 ppm.'' The complete notice, 
as corrected, is set out below.
    In light of the error, the Department of Justice will receive 
comments relating to the Consent Decree for an additional fifteen (15) 
days from the date of this publication beyond the initial thirty (30) 
days set forth below in the original notice.
