DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree
Amendment Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act
Notice is hereby given that on August
21, 2008, proposed Modifications to the
Consent Decree entered in United States
and New Mexico Office of the Natural
Resources Trustee v. Bayard Mining
Corp. et al., Civil Action No. 95–0285
MV/LFG, was lodged with the United
States District Court for the District of
New Mexico.
In this action, the parties to the
Consent Decree have stipulated to
modify the Consent Decree entered by
the Court in this matter on June 12,
1995. The original Consent Decree was
entered pursuant to Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act
(‘‘CERCLA’’) sections 106(a) and 107, 42
U.S.C. 9606(a) and 9607, and section
7003 of the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (‘‘RCRA’’), 42 U.S.C. 6903.
The original Consent Decree addressed
the cleanup of the Cleveland Mill
Superfund Site, located near Silver City,
New Mexico. Due to changes in the
required response action at the Site, the
parties have stipulated to modify this
Consent Decree.
Since entry of the Consent Decree in
1995, a separate CERCLA removal
action, conducted at the Site by the
Settling Defendants pursuant to EPA’s
administrative authorities, has obviated
the need for the remedial action
required by the Consent Decree.
Although the Settling Defendants have
performed the work pursuant to these
revised terms, the corresponding
changes to the Consent Decree have not
been made. The proposed modifications
serve to harmonize the Consent Decree
with the history of the response actions
at the Site.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the Proposed Modifications
to the Consent Decree. Comments
