DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging Proposed Consent Decree

    In accordance with Departmental Policy, 28 CFR 50.7, notice is 
hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in United States v. 
Bonneville Hot Springs, Inc., et al. (W.D. Wash.), No. C08-5184-RBL, 
was lodged with the United States District Court for the Western 
District of Washington on July 14, 2008.
    This proposed Consent Decree concerns a complaint filed by the 
United States against Bonneville Hot Springs, Inc., d/b/a/ Bonneville 
Hot Springs Resort; Pirfil (``Pete'') Cam, and Elena Cam, pursuant to 
Sections 301 and 404 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1311 and 1344, 
to obtain injunctive relief from and impose civil penalties against the 
Defendants for violating the Clean Water Act by discharging pollutants 
without a permit into waters of the United States. The Complaint also 
alleges that the Defendants committed trespass, in violation of 
Washington State law, RCW 4.24.630. The proposed Consent Decree 
resolves these allegations by requiring the Defendants to restore the 
impacted areas and pay a civil penalty, and also requires that 
Defendants Pirfil (``Pete'') Cam and Elena Cam execute a deed 
restriction to preserve natural vegetative and hydrologic conditions on 
property owned by them.
    The Department of Justice will accept written comments relating to 
this proposed Consent Decree for thirty (30) days from the date of 
publication of this Notice. Please address comments to Harold Malkin, 
Assistant United States Attorney, 700 Stewart Street, Suite 5220, 
Seattle, Washington 98101-1271, and refer to United States v. 
Bonneville Hot Springs, Inc., et al. (W.D. Wash.), No. 08-5184-RBL.
    The proposed Consent Decree may be examined at the Clerk's Office, 
United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, 
700 Stewart Street, Seattle, Washington 98101-1271. In addition, the 
proposed Consent Decree may be viewed at http://www.usdoj.gov/enrd/Consent_Decrees.html.
