[FR Doc. 2019–10342 Filed 5–17–19; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4410–15–P DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Clean Air Act On May 10, 2019, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in the lawsuit entitled United States v. Infineum USA LP, Civil Action No. 2:19cv-12441. In the Complaint, the United States, on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, alleges that Infineum USA LP violated the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7412 and 7414, and Title V requirements under the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7661a(a) and 7661c(a) for failing to operate its steam-assisted flare (‘‘Flare’’) that is used to control emissions at Infineum’s facility, in compliance with limits and conditions in its Title V operating permit, and the Complaint further alleges that Infineum failed to operate the Flare in a manner consistent with good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions. The Complaint alleges these violations occurred because Infineum injected disproportionate steam into the Flare at rates that caused excess emissions of hazardous air pollutants. The proposed Consent Decree requires Infineum to conduct injunctive relief, particularly incorporating automated steam injection and automated gas monitoring for any gas sent to the Flare for combustion. The Consent Decree also requires Infineum to pay a civil penalty of $187,500. The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on the proposed Consent Decree.
