SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Consistent
with section 9(f) of the Reclamation
Project Act of 1939 and the rules and
regulations published in 52 FR 11954,
April 13, 1987 (43 CFR 426.22),
Reclamation will publish notice of
proposed or amendatory contract
actions for any contract for the delivery
of project water for authorized uses in
newspapers of general circulation in the
affected area at least 60 days prior to
contract execution. Announcements
may be in the form of news releases,
legal notices, official letters,
memorandums, or other forms of
written material. Meetings, workshops,
and/or hearings may also be used, as
appropriate, to provide local publicity.
The public participation procedures do
not apply to proposed contracts for the
sale of surplus or interim irrigation
water for a term of 1 year or less. Either
of the contracting parties may invite the
public to observe contract proceedings.
All public participation procedures will
be coordinated with those involved in
complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act. Pursuant to
the ‘‘Final Revised Public Participation
Procedures’’ for water resource-related
contract negotiations, published in 47
FR 7763, February 22, 1982, a tabulation
is provided of all proposed contractual
actions in each of the five Reclamation
regions. When contract negotiations are
completed, and prior to execution, each
proposed contract form must be
approved by the Secretary of the
Interior, or pursuant to delegated or
redelegated authority, the Commissioner
of Reclamation or one of the regional
directors. In some instances,
congressional review and approval of a
report, water rate, or other terms and
conditions of the contract may be
involved.
Public participation in and receipt of
comments on contract proposals will be
facilitated by adherence to the following
procedures:
1. Only persons authorized to act on
behalf of the contracting entities may
negotiate the terms and conditions of a
specific contract proposal.
2. Advance notice of meetings or
hearings will be furnished to those
parties that have made a timely written
request for such notice to the
appropriate regional or project office of
Reclamation.
3. Written correspondence regarding
proposed contracts may be made
available to the general public pursuant

contract or contract action must be
submitted to the appropriate regional
officials at the locations and within the
time limits set forth in the advance
public notices.
5. All written comments received and
testimony presented at any public

summarized by the appropriate regional
office for use by the contract approving
authority.
6. Copies of specific proposed
contracts may be obtained from the
appropriate regional director or his or
her designated public contact as they
become available for review and
comment.
7. In the event modifications are made
in the form of a proposed contract, the
appropriate regional director shall
determine whether republication of the
notice and/or extension of the comment
period is necessary.
Factors considered in making such a
determination shall include, but are not
limited to, (i) The significance of the
modification, and (ii) the degree of
public interest which has been
expressed over the course of the
negotiations. At a minimum, the
regional director will furnish revised
contracts to all parties who requested
the contract in response to the initial
public notice.

Mines, Inc., et al., Civ. No. 11–00446–

The Complaint alleges that the

a party to the proposed Consent Decree.
The Consent Decree requires payments
totaling $208,500, based on the
defendant’s financial resources. The
Consent Decree also requires, among
other things, that Defendants assign
their interests in insurance policies to a
trust, established for the benefit of EPA
and the natural resource trustees, and
pay two percent of net smelter returns
generated from any future mining
activities. The Consent Decree grants the
Defendants a covenant not to sue for
response costs, as well as natural
resource damages, in connection with
the Site.
For thirty (30) days after the date of
this publication, the Department of
Justice will receive comments relating to
the Consent Decree. Comments should

Resources Division, and either e-mailed

Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree
Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act
Notice is hereby given that on
September 23, 2011, a proposed Consent
Decree in United States v. TRAC
Enterprises, LLC, Civil Action No. 2:11–
cv–00652, was lodged with the United
States District Court for the Southern
District of West Virginia.
In this cost recovery action, brought
pursuant to Section 107 of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation, and Liability
Act of 1980, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’),
42 U.S.C. 9607, the United States, on
behalf of the Administrator of the
United States Environmental Protection
Agency (‘‘EPA’’), sought reimbursement
of costs incurred by EPA for response
actions taken at or in connection with
the release or threatened release of
hazardous substances at the Custom
Plating and Polishing Site (‘‘the Site’’) in
Dunbar, Kanawha County, West
Virginia.
The complaint alleged that EPA
conducted an emergency removal action
at the Site to address chemicals and
wastes used in and generated by the
electroplating and metal refinishing
business that were found at the Site,
including ‘‘hazardous substances’’
within the meaning of Section 101(14)
of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9601(14).
Under the proposed Consent Decree,
TRAC Enterprises, LLC, the owner of
the Site, will pay a total of $72,000 to
the Hazardous Substance Superfund, in
reimbursement of EPA’s past response
costs incurred through the date of entry
of the Consent Decree. This amount was
determined based on an analysis of
TRAC Enterprise’s ability to pay.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of thirty (30) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the Consent Decree.
Comments should be addressed to the
Assistant Attorney General,
Environment and Natural Resources
Division, and either e-mailed to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Consistent with section 9(f) of the
Reclamation Project Act of 1939 and the rules and regulations published

Reclamation regions. When contract negotiations are completed, and
