agencies. Combined with other Federal,
state, and local information, the survey
is used to present an accurate picture of
the national drug threat.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: It is estimated that
approximately 12,782 respondents will
complete the survey within
approximately 33 minutes.
6. An estimate of the total public

Decree with the United States District
Court for the District of Connecticut in
the lawsuit entitled United States and

In the Complaint, the United States,
on behalf of the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), and the State
of Connecticut, on behalf of the

allege that the defendant, Eastgate Plaza,

Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. 9601, et seq., in
connection with the Scovill Industrial
Landfill Superfund Site in Waterbury,

Consent Decree requires Eastgate to,
among other things, pay $100,000
toward EPA’s and CT DEEP’s past
response costs; provide access to its
property to allow for remedial actions to
take place; institute institutional
controls to restrict development and
excavation of that property; and consent
to a judgment in the amount of $13.7
million, which will be placed as a lien
against the property.
