The Louisville and Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District (‘‘MSD’’), Civil Action No. 3:05–cv–00236–CRS. A Consent Decree resolving the Plaintiffs’ Clean Water Act (‘‘CWA’’) claims against MSD was entered by the Court in 2005. That Consent Decree was amended and the Amended Consent Decree was entered by this Court in 2009. The proposed Second ACD includes significant new work to enable MSD to meet the objectives of the CWA. The proposed Second ACD replaces and supersedes the 2009 Amended Consent Decree. Under the proposed Second ACD, MSD is required to undertake critical infrastructure projects to ensure that the goals of the Clean Water Act are met. As a result of the greater priority and expense of this new work, the proposed Second ACD extends the deadlines for the few remaining projects required by the 2009 Amended Consent Decree. The proposed work required under the Second ACD is estimated to cost approximately $1.1 billion. While the longest extension to one of the remaining projects is eleven years, most of the work will be completed much sooner. The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on the Second ACD. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and should refer to the Commonwealth of Kentucky and United States of America v.
