Drinking Water Act

    On May 21, 2015, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
consent decree with the United States District Court for the Southern 
District of New York in the lawsuit entitled United States v. County of 
Westchester, New York, Civil Action No. 13 Civ. 5475 (NSR).
    The United States filed this lawsuit under the Safe Drinking Water 
Act (the ``Act''). The complaint alleges that the County of 
Westchester, New York (the ``Defendant'') violated the Act by failing 
to ensure that Westchester County Water District No. 1 (``Water 
District No. 1'') was in compliance with the Long Term 2 Enhanced 
Surface Water Treatment Rule (the ``Enhanced Water Treatment Rule''), a 
regulation promulgated pursuant to the Act. The Enhanced Water 
Treatment Rule required certain public water systems, including Water 
District No. 1, to implement measures by April 1, 2012 to treat water 
to prevent Cryptosporidium contamination.
    The proposed consent decree requires Defendant to perform 
injunctive relief to bring Water District No. 1 into compliance with 
the Enhanced Water Treatment Rule. While the injunctive relief is being 
completed, the proposed consent decree requires Defendant to perform 
interim measures to provide water that is in compliance with the 
Enhanced Water Treatment Rule to portions of Water District No. 1 for 
portions of each year. In addition, the proposed consent decree 
requires Defendant to pay a civil penalty of $1,108,771, and to perform 
three supplemental environmental projects (``SEPs'') for the benefit of 
the residents of Water District No. 1. The SEPs, which have a combined 
value of $691,229, require Defendant to: (i) Increase the number of 
days during which the unused pharmaceuticals of residents of Water 
District No. 1 will be accepted at Defendant's Household Materials 
Recovery Facility or at other designated sites; (ii) increase the 
number of days during which the unused hazardous household chemicals of 
residents of Water District No. 1 will be accepted at Defendant's 
Household Materials Recovery Facility or at other designated sites; and 
(iii) purchase at least $100,000 worth of 55-gallon rain barrels for 
residential collection and storage of roof rainwater runoff, to be 
distributed to residents of Water District No. 1. The Consent Decree 
resolves the claims of the United States for the violations alleged in 
the complaint through the date of lodging of the proposed consent 
decree.
    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 v. County of Westchester, New York, 
13 Civ. 5475 (NSR), D.J. Ref. No. 90-5-1-1-10536. All comments must be
