Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as 
Amended

    Notice is hereby given that on February 17, 2010, a proposed 
Consent Decree in United States of America v. ITT Corporation, Civil 
Action No. 4:10-cv-00053-SPM-WCS, was lodged with the United States 
District Court for the Northern District of Florida, Tallahassee 
Division.
    In this action, the United States, on behalf of the U.S. 
Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA''), sought injunctive relief and 
recovery of response costs pursuant to Sections 106 and 107 of the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act 
of 1980 (CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. 9606 and 9607, with respect to the ITT 
Thompson Industries Superfund Site located at 800 Livingston Street 
(State Road 145), Madison, Florida. ITT Corporation formerly operated a 
manufacturing facility at the Site, where soil, sediment, and water 
have been contaminated with hazardous substances such as volatile 
organic compounds and heavy metals.
    The proposed Consent Decree requires ITT Corporation to conduct the 
remedial action as provided in EPA's Record of Decision, maintain a 
performance guarantee in the amount of $2.2 million, reimburse EPA 
$23,308.01 in past response costs, and pay all future response costs. 
The remedial action consists of disposal of contaminated soil and 
sediment, bioremediation of contaminated groundwater, institutional 
controls to limit Site uses until cleanup goals are reached, and five-
year reviews of the remedy.
    The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty (30) 
days from the date of this publication comments relating to the 
proposed Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant 
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and
