Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Modification to Consent Decree Under
the Clean Air Act and Other Statutes
On January 6, 2023, the Department of
Justice lodged a proposed Agreement
and Order Regarding Modification of
Consent Decree (‘‘Agreement and
Order’’) with the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of Texas in
the lawsuit entitled United States and
State of Texas v. E.I. du Pont de
Nemours and Company and
Performance Materials NA, Inc., Case
No. 1:21–cv–00516–MJT. The original
Consent Decree was entered by the
Court on January 28, 2022, and it
requires the settling defendants to
implement injunctive relief at an
ethylene production facility located in
Orange, Texas.
The proposed Agreement and Order
modifies one injunctive relief
requirement of the original Consent
Decree to provide for use of an
alternative control technology to reduce
benzene emissions to air at certain
locations within the facility.
Specifically, the proposed modification
would change the control requirement
for benzene waste emissions at two
locations to the use of a thermal
oxidizer as the primary control
technology. Carbon canisters operated
in series would not be used at these
locations. There are no other changes to
the original Consent Decree.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed Agreement and Order.
Comments should be addressed to the
Assistant Attorney General,
Environment and Natural Resources
Division, and should refer to entitled
