DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Water
Act
Under 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby
given that on December 16, 2004, a
proposed Consent Decree in United
States v. District of Columbia Water and
Sewer Authority, et al., Consolidated
Civil Action 1:CV00183TFH, was lodged
with the United States District Court for
the District of Columbia.
In February 2000, Citizen Plaintiffs
environmental groups sued the District
of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority
(‘‘WASA’’) for violations of the Clean
Water Act arising from its discharges
from the combined sewer of wastewater
containing untreated sewage and other
pollutants into the Anacostia River, the
Potomac River, and Rock Creek in the
District of Columbia. The United States
filed suit in December 2000, against
both WASA and the District of
Columbia. The United States alleged
several claims, including that WASA’s
discharges from the combined sewer
violated the terms of its National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(‘‘NPDES’’) permit and Section 301 of
the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1311.
The two cases were consolidated.
Plaintiffs’ other claims, claims for
civil penalty and liability issues in the
case were previously resolved through
stipulations or a partial consent decree
entered by the court in October 2003.
The consent decree lodged today
resolves the remaining claim of the
United States in the case. It requires
WASA to construct and operate a
system of pumps and tunnels to create
additional storage in the combined
sewer, which is expected to reduce the
volume and frequency of the combined
sewer discharges. The construction
projects, which WASA estimates will
cost more than $1.265 billion to plan,
design, and construct, will be built over
a twenty (20) year period.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the proposed Consent Decree.
Comments should be addressed to the
Assistant Attorney General,
Environment and Natural Resources
Division, P.O. Box 7611, U.S.
Department of Justice, Washington, DC
20044–7611, and should refer to United
States v. District of Columbia Water and
Sewer Authority, DOJ # 90–5–1–1–
07137 and Consolidated Civil Action
No. 1:CV00183TFH.
The Consent Decree may be examined
at the Office of the United States
Attorney, District of Columbia, c/o Brian
