DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Second Consent Decree Under the Clean Air 
Act

    Notice is hereby given that on March 6, 2012, a proposed Second 
Consent Decree in United States and the State of Kansas v. Coffeyville 
Resources Refining & Marketing, LLC et. al., 04-cv-01064 (D. Kan. 
2004), was lodged with the United States Court for the District of 
Kansas.
    On June 13, 2004, the Court entered a Consent Decree in this action 
(Docket No. 8) that required Defendant Coffeyville Resources Refining & 
Marketing, L.L.C. (``CRRM'') to install certain air pollution controls 
to reduce emissions of oxides, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter at 
its oil refinery located in Coffeyville, Kansas. Under the proposed 
Second Consent Decree the United States and State grant CRRM an 
extension on installation of some of these controls. And CRRM has 
agreed to implement new and upgraded pollution controls; to comply with 
more stringent emission limits, and to follow more aggressive leak-
detection and repair practices. These measures will reduce CRRM's 
emission of various nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide 
(SO2), volatile organic compounds, particulate matter, 
carbon monoxide, and other pollutants that affect air quality. CRRM 
will also pay approximately $970,000 in civil penalties under the Clean 
Air Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and 
Liability Act, and the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know 
Act.
    The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty (30) 
days from the date of this publication comments relating to the Second 
Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney 
General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and either emailed
