DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


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

    On January 15, 2025, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the District 
of Idaho in the lawsuit entitled United States of America v. City of 
Driggs, Idaho, et. al. Civ. No. 4:22-cv-00444.
    The United States filed a complaint under the Clean Water Act 
(``CWA'') against the City of Driggs, Idaho (``the City'') and State of 
Idaho seeking injunctive relief and civil penalties for violations of 
the requirements of the City's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination 
System (``NPDES'') permit and violations of an administrative order 
with the Environmental Protection Agency (``EPA''). The proposed 
Consent Decree would resolve the claims in the complaint, require the 
City to perform injunctive relief measures to ensure future compliance, 
and require the City to pay a penalty of $400,0000.
