Michigan Sugar Co., Civil No. 08–12125 (E.D. Mich.), was lodged with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Bay City, Michigan Division. In this action, the United States sought injunctive relief and civil penalties against Michigan Sugar for violations of the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (‘‘PSD’’) provisions of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7470–7492, and the Plan Requirements for Nonattainment Areas (‘‘NSR’’) of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7501– 7515, and the federally approved and enforceable Michigan SIP. Michigan Sugar commenced construction of a new natural gas-fired Pulp Dryer No. 3 at its Bay City Facility in 1984 without obtaining a PSD permit that addressed carbon monoxide (‘‘CO’’) emissions as required by section 165 of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7475, 40 CFR 52.21(I), and the Michigan SIP. At the same time, because Bay County was nonattainment for ozone, Michigan Sugar failed to obtain VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:52 May 29, 2008 Jkt 214001 an NSR permit that addressed volatile organic compounds (‘‘VOC’’) emissions, as required by section 173 of the Act, 42 U.S.C. 7503, and R 336.1201 of the Michigan Air Pollution Control Rules that are part of the federally enforceable Michigan SIP. Further, in 1995, Michigan Sugar increased its annual hours of operation at its Bay City facility beyond the federally enforceable permit conditions for all its Pulp Dryers, Nos. 1, 2, and 3, triggering emissions increases, without obtaining a PSD permit addressing CO emissions, and an NSR permit addressing VOC emissions as required by the Act, federal regulations and the Michigan SIP. Under the Consent Decree, Michigan Sugar shall: (1) Operate and maintain a Steam Dryer (or alternative non-air pollutant emitting sugar beet pulp drying technology) for processing sugar beet pulp at its Bay City Facility; (2) permanently shut down and decommission its three natural gas-fired Pulp Dryers on a schedule that commenced in December 2007 and will end in May 2014; (3) submit application(s) for a Title V permit modification and/or other appropriate permits under the Act for its Bay City Facility and cooperate fully with Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (‘‘MDEQ’’) officials processing the application(s); (4) comply with terms and conditions of the MDEQ approved permit(s); and, (5) pay a civil penalty of $210,000. 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, and either e-mailed to pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov or mailed to United States Department of Justice, P.O.
