Country Acres Farm, Inc., Civil Action No. 07–07–B–W was lodged with the United States District Court for the District of Maine. In this action the United States sought civil penalties and injunctive relief relating to alleged violations of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251, et seq., arising out of Country Acres Farm’s PO 00000 Frm 00039 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 44857 operation of a concentrated animal feeding operation, located in Dixmont, Maine.

The Consent Order requires the implementation of remedial work to clean up manure storage lagoons and other activities, which will minimize or eliminate the risk of additional discharges at the Country Acres Farm Site, by memorializing Defendant’s commitment to effect the remediation. The Consent Order provides a mechanism through which EPA may evaluate the performance of Defendant’s independent contractor and retains the Court’s exercise of jurisdiction over issues relating to Defendant’s performance of the remediation and (with EPA’s approval of completion of the remediation) purges Defendant and its president of an Order for Contempt, entered by the Court on July 24, 2007. The Consent Order does not resolve the United States’ claims for final injunctive relief or for payment of a civil penalty.
