DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Proposed First Amendment to Consent Decree 
Under the Clean Water Act

    On April 30, 2013, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
first amendment to a consent decree with the United States District 
Court for the Northern District of Ohio in the lawsuit entitled United 
States, et al. v. City of Fostoria, Ohio, Civil Action No. 3:06 CV 
1626, consolidated with 3:06 CV 1627.
    Under the original 2006 consent decree, the City of Fostoria, Ohio 
(``Fostoria'') agreed to undertake numerous measures to come into 
compliance with the Clean Water Act, including developing and 
implementing a Long-Term Control Plan (``LTCP''). Fostoria still is in 
the process of complying with the 2006 Decree. However, under the 
proposed first amendment, the completion of the construction required 
by the recent, conditionally-approved LTCP is extended from December 
31, 2025, to December 31, 2029.
    The publication of this notice opens a period of public comment on 
the first amendment. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant 
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and
