DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging Proposed Consent Decree

    In accordance with Departmental Policy, 28 CFR 50.7, notice is 
hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in Herberg, et al. v. 
United States Environmental Protection Agency, et al., Civil No. 14-
1443 DWF/LIB, was lodged with the United States District Court for the 
District of Minnesota on February 27, 2015.
    This proposed Consent Decree concerns a complaint filed against the 
United States by Thomas Lloyd Herberg, Bruce Allen Herberg, and D & G 
Drainage, Inc., pursuant to the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251, et 
seq., and the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 551, et seq., to 
challenge an Administrative Order for Compliance issued to Plaintiffs 
for violating the Clean Water Act by discharging pollutants without a 
permit into waters of the United States. The proposed Consent Decree 
resolves these allegations, as well as the United States' potential 
enforcement counterclaims, by requiring the Plaintiffs to perform 
mitigation and to pay a civil penalty.

al., DJ #90-5-1-4-20160.
