Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree
Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act
Notice is hereby given that on May 10,
2010, a proposed Consent Decree (the
‘‘Decree’’) in United States v. Precious
Metals, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:10–cv–
02387 (JEI–AMD), was lodged with the
United States District Court for the
District of New Jersey.
In a complaint, filed simultaneously
with the Decree, the United States
alleges that Precious Metals, Inc. is
liable pursuant to Section 107(a)(3) of
the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act (‘‘CERCLA’’), 42 U.S.C. 9607(a)(3),
for response costs incurred by the
Environmental Protection Agency
(‘‘EPA’’) in cleaning up the Pioneer
Smelting Superfund Site located at
Factory Road, Route 532, in Chatsworth,
New Jersey.
Pursuant to the Decree, Precious
Metals will make an initial payment of
$70,000 and then a contingency
payment not to exceed $80,000. The
exact amount of the contingency
payment will be based on Precious
Metals, Inc. financial capabilities three
months after the Consent Decree has
been entered by the Court. The
payments will resolve any claim the
United States has against Precious
Metals, Inc. associated with costs
incurred by EPA at the Pioneer Smelting
Superfund Site.
The Department of Justice will
receive, for a period of thirty (30) days
from the date of this publication,
comments relating to the Decree.
