Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree
Under the Clean Water Act
Notice is hereby given that on May 18,
2011, a proposed Consent Decree
(‘‘Decree’’) in United States of America,
State of Texas, and State of Oklahoma
v. Mahard Egg Farm, Inc., Civil Action
No. 3:11–cv–01031–N, was lodged with

Northern District of Texas (Dallas
Division).
In this action, the United States, on
behalf of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (‘‘U.S. EPA’’),
together with the States of Texas and
Oklahoma, sought penalties and
injunctive relief under the Clean Water
Act (‘‘CWA’’) against Mahard Egg Farm,
Inc., for violations of Concentrated
Animal Feeding Operation (‘‘CAFO’’)
general permit and related laws and
regulations. Specifically, the Complaint
alleges that Mahard discharged
pollutants or otherwise failed to comply
with the terms of its permits at six other
facilities, including its newest facility
near Vernon, Tex., where it also failed
to comply with the Texas Construction
Storm Water General Permit and to
ensure safe drinking water for its
employees. The states of Texas and
Oklahoma also alleged similar
violations of state laws.
Under the proposed Consent Decree,
the Defendants will pay a civil penalty
and take steps to bring each of its seven
CAFO facilities into compliance with
applicable state and federal laws,
permits, and regulations, and to restore
the lands so as to prevent future
discharges to area waterways. The
settlement mandates the performance of
specific requirements, such as proper
lagoon closures, groundwater
monitoring, and the construction and
maintenance of buffer strips along area
waterways within the facility
boundaries. It also requires on-going
land restoration and management
measures, such as restrictions on the
land-application of manure and on
livestock grazing.

for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the Decree. Comments should
