the release affected or potentially

that Kinder Morgan will pay DOI
$15,000 to reimburse the costs of the
Natural Resource Damage Assessment,
and $100,000 for the projects to restore
natural resources as selected in the
DARP. In consideration for the
payments, the United States and
Virginia covenant not to sue Defendant
for specified civil claims arising from
the spill.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed Settlement Agreement. The

Abstract: This form will primarily be
used to collect applicant reference
information. Reference checking is an
objective evaluation of an applicant’s
past job performance based on
information collected from key
individuals (e.g., supervisors, peers,
subordinates) who have known and
worked with the applicant. Reference
checking is a necessary supplement to
the evaluation of resumes and other
descriptions of training and experience,
and allows the selecting official to hire
applicants with a strong history of
performance. The questions on this form
have been developed following the
OPM, MSPB, and DOJ ‘‘Best Practice’’
guidelines for reference checking.
