DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Extension of Comment Period on Proposed Consent Decree

    Notice is hereby given that the comment period on the proposed 
Consent Decree in United States of America et al. v. The Boeing 
Company, Civil Action No. 10-758 (W.D. Wa.), will be extended by sixty 
(60) days. Notice of the proposed Consent Decree was originally 
published on May 11, 2010. 75 FR 26,275. The original comment period 
therefore closed on June 10, 2010.
    Following publication of the original Notice, the Department of 
Justice received requests from several

[[Page 34156]]

interested parties asking that the comment period be extended for sixty 
(60) days. The requests noted that the proposed Consent Decree is the 
first proposed settlement of claims for resource damages caused by 
hazardous substances released from facilities along the Duwamish 
Waterway. The letters noted the complexity of the subject matter and 
stated that the original thirty (30) day comment period was not 
sufficient to adequately evaluate the proposed Consent Decree.
    The natural resource trustees who are parties to the Proposed 
Consent decree have decided to allow the full 60-day extension of the 
comment period that was requested. Therefore, the Department of Justice 
will receive written comments relating to the proposed Consent Decree 
for an additional sixty (60) days after the original comment period, 
until and including August 9, 2010. Comments should be addressed to the 
Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, 
and either e-mailed to [email protected] or mailed to P.O. 
Box 7611, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20044-7611, and 
should refer to United States of America et al. v. The Boeing Company, 
DJ Reference No. 90-11-3-07227/1.
    The Consent Decree may be examined at the Office of the United 
States Attorney, Western District of Washington, Office of the United 
States Attorney for the Western District of Washington, 5200 United 
States Courthouse, 700 Stewart Street, Seattle, WA 98101-1271. During 
the public comment period, the Consent Decree may also be examined on
