DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Proposed Fourth Amended Consent Decree Under 
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability 
Act

    On May 7, 2019, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Fourth 
Amended Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the 
Western District of Washington in the lawsuit entitled United States v. 
Point Ruston, LLC, Case No. 91-CV-05528-RJB.
    This amended Consent Decree extends various remedial action 
deadlines and forgives certain payments due under the Third Amended 
Consent Decree in exchange for the disposition of contaminated soil 
from an adjacent parcel. Under the terms of this amendment: (1) Point 
Ruston will temporarily manage and dispose of the contaminated soil 
from the Metropolitan Parks Waterfront Phase I parcel pursuant to a 
Soil Management Plan; (2) Point Ruston's obligation to pay the 
remaining amount due under Paragraph 69 of the Third Amended Consent 
Decree is extinguished; (3) certain remedial action deadlines set forth 
in the Construction Management Plans are extended for six months; and 
(4) a legal citation in the ``Access and Institutional Controls'' 
section of the Third Amended Consent Decree is updated to reflect a 
change in Washington state law.

the Fourth Amended Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the
