SUMMARY:
13 See United States v. Enova Corp., 107 F. Supp.
2d 10, 17 (D.D.C. 2000) (noting that the ‘‘Tunney
Act expressly allows the court to make its public
interest determination on the basis of the
competitive impact statement and response to
comments alone’’); United States v. Mid-Am.
Dairymen, Inc., No. 73–CV–681–W–1, 1977–1 Trade
Cas. (CCH) ¶ 61,508, at 71,980, *22 (W.D.Mo. 1977)
(‘‘Absent a showing of corrupt failure of the
government to discharge its duty, the Court, in
making its public interest finding, should . . .
carefully consider the explanations of the
government in the competitive impact statement
and its responses to comments in order to
determine whether those explanations are
reasonable under the circumstances.’’); S. Rep. No.
93–298, at 6 (1973) (‘‘Where the public interest can
be meaningfully evaluated simply on the basis of
briefs and oral arguments, that is the approach that
should be utilized.’’).

and website content testing. Civil will
submit request for review and approval
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB), in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Over the next three (3) years, Civil
anticipates undertaking a variety of new
surveys and data collections as well as
reassessing ongoing elder justice
website projects that address elder
abuse and elder justice issues. This
work will entail development of new
survey instruments, redesigning and/or
modifying existing surveys and creating
or modifying established surveys. In
order to inform Civil data collection
protocols, to develop accurate estimates
of respondent burden and to minimize
respondent burden associated with each
new or modified data collection, Civil
will engage in pilot and field test
activities to refine instrumentation and
data collection methodologies. Civil
envisions using a variety of techniques,
including, but not limited to, tests of
different types of survey and data
collection operations, focus groups,
pilot testing, exploratory interviews,
questionnaires, usability testing and
electronic data collection instruments.
Following standard Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
Requirements, Civil will submit a
change request to OMB individually for
every group of data collection activities
undertaken under this generic
clearance. Civil will provide OMB with
a copy of the individual instruments or
questionnaires (if one is used), as well
as other materials describing the project.
DATES: The Department of Justice
encourages public comment and will
accept input until June 15, 2018.

By mail .........
On April 10, 2018, the Department of
Justice lodged a proposed Second
Amendment of Consent Decree
(‘‘Second Amendment’’) with the
United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Tennessee in the
lawsuit entitled United States et al. v.
Cemex Inc., et al., Civil Action No.
3:16–cv–471.
This case involves claims for alleged
violations of the Prevention of
Significant Deterioration program of the
Clean Air Act (‘‘CAA’’), CAA’s Title V
operating permit requirements, and
related state law requirements at several
Portland cement facilities. The original
Consent Decree resolving the dispute
included injunctive relief for
installation of control technology to
reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides
(NOX), civil penalties, and mitigation of
past excess NOX emissions. The
proposed Second Amendment relates
solely to requirements in the original
Consent Decree applicable to two kilns
at the Odessa, Texas facility. The
amendment is necessitated by the
technical impracticability of achieving
the specified interim emission limit for
NOX on Kiln 1. The proposed Second
Amendment resolves this development
by increasing the interim limit on Kiln
1 while accelerating the deadline for
installing NOX control technology and
achieving a NOX emission limit on Kiln
2. The amendment will result in a net
