of the tunnel in the Potomac River, and

Clarification Facility. Construction of
the Anacostia tunnel has begun
according to schedule and will not be
affected by this proposed Amendment.
The final compliance date of 2025

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Air
Act
On May 19, 2015, the Department of
Justice lodged a proposed Consent
Decree with the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of
Michigan in the lawsuit entitled United
States and Michigan Department of
Environmental Quality v. AK Steel
Corporation, Civil Action No. 15–11804.
The United States filed this lawsuit
under the Clean Air Act (CAA), naming
AK Steel Corporation as the defendant.
The complaint seeks injunctive relief
and civil penalties for violations of the
environmental regulations that govern
iron and steel mills and the emission of
particulate matter from certain sources
at defendant’s iron and steel mill in
Dearborn, Wayne County, Michigan.
The Michigan Department of
Environmental Quality (MDEQ) joined
the complaint as a co-plaintiff asserting
the same claims under equivalent state
laws and regulations. Under the
proposed consent decree, AK Steel
agrees to implement procedures to
improve future compliance with the
CAA and State regulations, and pay a
total of $1,353,126 in civil penalties, to
be divided equally between the United
States and MDEQ. Under the proposed
consent decree, AK Steel also agrees to
fund the installation of air filtration
systems at nearby public schools. In
return, the United States and MDEQ
agree not to sue the defendant under
section 113 of the CAA related to its
past violations.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed Consent Decree. Comments
should be addressed to the Assistant
Attorney General, Environment and
Natural Resources Division, and should
refer to United States and MDEQ v. AK
Steel Corp., D.J. Ref. No. 90–5–2–1–
