DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


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

    On June 5, 2013, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Third 
Amendment to 2006 Consent Decree with the United States District Court 
for the Southern District of Indiana in the lawsuit entitled United 
States and State of Indiana v. City of Indianapolis, Indiana, Civil 
Action No. 1:06-cv-01456.
    On December 19, 2006, the District Court had approved and entered a 
Consent Decree among the United States, the State of Indiana, and the 
City of Indianapolis, Indiana, which resolved various alleged 
violations of the Clean Water Act. The Consent Decree obligated the 
City of Indianapolis to implement certain combined sewer overflow 
control measures in accordance with a Long Term Control Plan. 
Subsequent Consent Decree Amendments refined these obligations. In 
2011, the City's wastewater system was sold to CWA Authority, Inc., an 
Indiana nonprofit corporation. The proposed Third Amendment to 2006 
Consent Decree extends the City's obligations under the Consent Decree 
to CWA Authority.
    The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on 
the proposed Third Amendment to 2006 Consent Decree. Comments should be 
addressed to the Acting Assistant Attorney General, Environment and 
Natural Resources Division, and should refer to United States and State

07292. All comments must be submitted no later than 30 days after the 
publication date of this notice. Comments may be submitted either by
