Justice lodged a proposed Consent
Decree in the United States District
E:\FR\FM\29APN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 83 / Friday, April 29, 2016 / Notices
Court for the Middle District of
Louisiana in the lawsuit titled United
States and Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality v. ORB
Exploration, LLC, Civil Action No. 16–
260–JJB–RLB.
This case concerns three oil spills,
one in 2013 and two in 2015, at
locations in the Atchafalaya River Basin,
from oil production facilities owned and
operated by ORB Exploration, LLC
(ORB), as well as ORB’s failure to
comply with a Coast Guard order issued
during the cleanup of one of the spills
or with certain Spill Prevention,
Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC)
regulations promulgated by the
Environmental Protection Agency under
the CWA. The largest spill occurred in
2013 at ORB’s facilities located at Frog
Lake in Iberville Parish, near Baton
Rouge, Louisiana, when a corroded
transfer pipeline ruptured and spilled a
large amount of crude oil, estimated at
more than 1,000 barrels, into a flooded
wetland area. The second spill occurred
in September of 2015, also at ORB’s
Frog Lake facilities. The third spill
occurred in October of 2015 at an ORB
facility at Crocodile Bayou in St. Martin
Parish, Louisiana. The SPCC violations
were discovered during a May 2015
inspection of ORB’s oil storage barge at
Frog Lake.
In the Complaint, the United States
alleges violations of Sections 301(a),
311(b)(7)(A) or (D), 311(b)(7)(B)(ii) and
311(b)(7)(C) of the CWA, 33 U.S.C.
1311(a), 1321(b)(7)(A) or (D),
1321(b)(7)(B)(ii), and 1321(b)(7)(C). In
addition, the Louisiana Department of
Environmental Quality (LDEQ) alleges
violations of La. R. S. 30:2076(A)(1) and
(3), and Louisiana Administrative Code
sections 33:IX.501.A, 33:IX.1701.B,
33:I.3915.A.3, and 33:I.3925.A, for the
discharges of oil and ORB’s failures to
file a timely report or provide updated
notice to the state hotline for reporting
spills. The Complaint seeks the
assessment of civil penalties, State
response costs, and injunctive relief for
the alleged violations. The proposed
Consent Decree resolves the civil
penalty, State response cost, and
injunctive relief claims of the United
States and LDEQ for the causes of action
alleged in the Complaint by requiring
ORB to perform corrective measures
focused on spill detection and
prevention and pay federal civil
penalties of $615,000 and State civil
penalties and response costs of
$100,000.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed Consent Decree. Comments

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Clean
Water Act
On April 22, 2016, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed
Consent Decree in the United States District
[[Page 25717]]
Court for the Middle District of Louisiana in the lawsuit titled United
States and Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality v. ORB
Exploration, LLC, Civil Action No. 16-260-JJB-RLB.
This case concerns three oil spills, one in 2013 and two in 2015,
at locations in the Atchafalaya River Basin, from oil production
facilities owned and operated by ORB Exploration, LLC (ORB), as well as
ORB's failure to comply with a Coast Guard order issued during the
cleanup of one of the spills or with certain Spill Prevention, Control,
and Countermeasure (SPCC) regulations promulgated by the Environmental
Protection Agency under the CWA. The largest spill occurred in 2013 at
ORB's facilities located at Frog Lake in Iberville Parish, near Baton
Rouge, Louisiana, when a corroded transfer pipeline ruptured and
spilled a large amount of crude oil, estimated at more than 1,000
barrels, into a flooded wetland area. The second spill occurred in
September of 2015, also at ORB's Frog Lake facilities. The third spill
occurred in October of 2015 at an ORB facility at Crocodile Bayou in
St. Martin Parish, Louisiana. The SPCC violations were discovered
during a May 2015 inspection of ORB's oil storage barge at Frog Lake.
In the Complaint, the United States alleges violations of Sections
301(a), 311(b)(7)(A) or (D), 311(b)(7)(B)(ii) and 311(b)(7)(C) of the

and Louisiana Administrative Code sections 33:IX.501.A, 33:IX.1701.B,
33:I.3915.A.3, and 33:I.3925.A, for the discharges of oil and ORB's
failures to file a timely report or provide updated notice to the state
hotline for reporting spills. The Complaint seeks the assessment of
civil penalties, State response costs, and injunctive relief for the
alleged violations. The proposed Consent Decree resolves the civil
penalty, State response cost, and injunctive relief claims of the
United States and LDEQ for the causes of action alleged in the
Complaint by requiring ORB to perform corrective measures focused on
spill detection and prevention and pay federal civil penalties of
$615,000 and State civil penalties and response costs of $100,000.
