hereby given that on January 8, 2010, a
proposed Consent Decree in U.S. v. The
City and County of Denver, Civil Action

United States District Court for the
District of Colorado.
The proposed Consent Decree
concerns a complaint filed by the
United States against the City and
County of Denver, Colorado, in which
the United States sought a declaratory
judgment that a ‘‘disposal fee’’
established by ordinance by the City

void and unenforceable against the
United States and other persons
performing remedial actions at operable
units of the Denver Radium Superfund
Site (‘‘Site’’) and a permanent injunction
prohibiting Denver from enforcing the
disposal fee against those entities.
Denver counterclaimed against the
United States pursuant to Section 107 of
CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9607, seeking its
claimed response costs relating to the
Site.
Under the proposed Consent Decree,
the United States will pay Denver the
sum of $550,000 in settlement of
Denver’s counterclaims against the
United States. In addition, among other
provisions of the proposed Consent
Decree, Denver releases the United
States, its contractors, and potentially
responsible parties acting under the
direction of the United States, from any
obligation to pay fees pursuant to
Denver’s ordinance; Denver agrees to
implement certain institutional controls
regarding the Site; and that under
certain conditions, Denver is granted a
covenant not to sue for future CERCLA
liability at sites to which it sends wastes
removed from the Site.
The Department of Justice will accept
written comments relating to this
proposed Consent Decree for thirty (30)
days from the date of publication of this
Notice. Please address comments to
