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

    On June 2, 2021, the Department of Justice lodged with the United 
States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana a Consent 
Decree in United States and State of Indiana v. Lone Star Industries,

these claims and requires Lone Star to (1) pay a civil penalty of 
$729,000 to be split evenly between the state and United States; (2)
