Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 43 / Monday, March 5, 2012 / Notices two sites in any given year. If two are nominated, at least one must be a natural site or a cultural landscape. Neither inclusion in the Tentative List nor inscription as a World Heritage Site imposes legal restrictions on owners or neighbors of sites, nor does it give the United Nations any management authority or ownership rights in U.S. World Heritage Sites, which continue to be subject only to U.S. laws. Inclusion in the Tentative List merely indicates that the property may be further examined for possible World Heritage nomination in the future. The World Heritage Committee’s Operational Guidelines ask participating nations to provide Tentative Lists, which aid in evaluating properties for the World Heritage List on a comparative international basis and help the Committee to schedule its work over the long term. In order to guide the U.S. World Heritage Program effectively and in a timely manner, NPS prepared and submitted (through the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of State) to the World Heritage Centre of UNESCO on January 24, 2008, the previously referenced Tentative List of properties that appear to meet the criteria for nomination. Information on how the Tentative List was developed is available on the Office of International Affairs Web site at https://www.nps.gov/ oia/topics/worldheritage/ worldheritage.htm. In order to be included, a proposed site must meet several U.S. prerequisites in addition to appearing to meet the stringent World Heritage criteria of international importance. The U.S. prerequisites include the written agreement of all property owners to the nomination of their property, a prior official determination that the property is nationally important (such as by designation as a National Historic or National Natural Landmark), and effective legal protection. Support from stakeholders, including elected officials, is also considered important.

[FR Doc. 2012–5246 Filed 3–2–12; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4410–07–P DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of Third Amendment to Consent Decree Under the Clean Air Act Under 28 U.S.C. 50.7, notice is hereby given that on February 28, 2012, a proposed Third Amendment to the Consent Decree entered in the case of United States, et al. v. ConocoPhillips Company, Civil Action No. H–05–0258, was lodged with the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. Under the original Consent Decree, ConocoPhillips Company (‘‘COPC’’) agreed to implement innovative pollution control technologies to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter from refinery process units at nine refineries owned and operated by COPC. COPC also agreed to adopt facility-wide enhanced benzene waste monitoring and fugitive emission control programs. Subsequently, the Court entered First and Second Amendments to the Consent Decree and a new owner (WRB Refining) of two of the refineries—the Wood River and Borger Refineries—was added as a defendant. COPC remained a defendant with respect to those two refineries because it continued to operate them. COPC still is obligated to comply with the Consent Decree as amended. However, under the Third Amendment, COPC will undertake a demonstration project and emissions tests at a recently installed delayed coking unit at its Wood River Refinery in order to enable the parties to establish new limits and controls for the coke drum steam vents and coker quench water tank. COPC also PO 00000 Frm 00081 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 will pay civil penalties of $249,000, $98,500, and $21,000 to resolve alleged Benzene Waste Operations NESHAP (‘‘BWON’’) violations at its Borger, Trainer, and Wood River Refineries, respectively. In addition, for the resolution of the BWON claims at its Wood River Refinery, COPC will perform a Supplemental Environmental Project valued at $77,000 to retrofit diesel school buses with pollution controls. Finally, several minor and non-material modifications are included in the Third Amendment. In the Third Amendment, the United States is joined by all Co-Plaintiffs to the original Consent Decree: the State of Illinois, the State of Louisiana, the State of New Jersey, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the Northwest Clean Air Agency in the State of Washington. The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of this publication comments relating to the Third Amendment. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and either mailed to pubcomment-ees.enrd@usdoj.gov or mailed to P.O. Box 7611, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20044–7611, and should refer to United States, et al. v. ConocoPhillips Company, D. J. Ref. No. 90–5–2–1– 06722/1. During the public comment period, the Third Amendment may be examined on the following Department of Justice Web site: https://www.usdoj.gov/enrd/ Consent_Decrees.html. A copy of the Third Amendment may also be obtained by mail from the Consent Decree Library, P.O. Box 7611, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, DC 20044–7611, or by faxing or emailing a request to ‘‘Consent Decree Copy’’ (EESCDCopy.ENRD@usdoj.gov), fax number (202) 514–0097; phone confirmation number (202) 514–5271.
