Proposed Interim Settlement
Agreement, Clean Water Act and
Administrative Procedure Act Claims
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of proposed interim
consent decree and proposed interim
settlement agreement; request for public
comment.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
Administrator’s March 18, 2022,
memorandum regarding ‘‘Consent

resolve Environmental Claims Against
the Agency,’’ notice is hereby given of
a proposed interim consent decree and
proposed interim settlement agreement
in Northwest Environmental Advocates
v. EPA, No. 19–01537 (W.D. Wash.). On
September 26, 2019, Plaintiff Northwest
Environmental Advocates filed a
complaint alleging that EPA failed to
perform duties mandated by the Clean
Water Act (CWA) regarding
Washington’s obligation to develop
Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) to
address waters identified on the state’s
impaired waters list and that EPA’s
inaction was arbitrary and capricious
under the Administrative Procedure Act
(APA), among other claims. EPA seeks
public input on a proposed interim
consent decree and proposed interim
settlement agreement prior to its final
decision-making regarding entering into
the proposed documents.
DATES: Written comments on the
proposed interim consent decree and
proposed interim settlement agreement
must be received by October 10, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
identified by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–
OGC–2023–0452 online at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Additional Information About the
Proposed Interim Consent Decree and
Proposed Interim Settlement Agreement
On September 26, 2019, Plaintiff filed
a complaint 1 in the federal district court
for the Western District of Washington
alleging that EPA actions and inactions
concerning the state of Washington’s
water quality assessment and listing
program and TMDL program violated
the APA and section 303(d) of the CWA.
Among other claims, Plaintiff asserted
that EPA violated the CWA by failing to
disapprove Washington’s alleged
constructive submission of no TMDLs
for waters on the state’s 1996 list of
impaired waters needing TMDLs and to
establish TMDLs for such waters. In
August 2020, the district court granted
Washington’s motion to intervene as a
defendant in the litigation. The parties
initiated settlement negotiations shortly
thereafter, which led to the
development of the proposed interim
consent decree and proposed interim
settlement agreement that are the
subject of this notice.
The proposed interim consent decree
and proposed interim settlement
agreement would constitute the first
part of a potential two-phase settlement
framework and thus completion of the
commitments set forth in each
document would not result in dismissal
of the litigation. Specifically, the
proposed interim consent decree would
require Washington to submit three
TMDLs to EPA by December 2025 (Soos
Creek fine sediment, Drayton Harbor
bacteria, and Whatcom Creek bacteria)
and would prohibit the Plaintiff from
filing any new TMDL constructive
submission lawsuits in Washington for
a period of 34 months. Under the
proposed interim settlement agreement,
while the litigation was held in
abeyance, an EPA-funded contractor
would review and evaluate

24, 2020.

Washington’s TMDL program to inform
an EPA report providing
recommendations for improving the
program, particularly with respect to the
timely development of TMDLs. Upon
completion and consideration of the
report, the parties would reengage in
settlement discussions in an effort to
reach a final agreement that would
resolve the litigation.
For a period of thirty (30) days
following the date of publication of this
notice, EPA will accept written
comments relating to the proposed
interim consent decree and proposed
interim settlement agreement from
persons who are not parties to the
litigation. EPA also may hold a public
hearing on whether to enter into the
proposed interim consent decree and
proposed interim settlement agreement.
EPA or the Department of Justice may
withdraw or withhold consent to the
proposed interim consent decree and
proposed interim settlement agreement
if the comments received disclose facts
or considerations that indicate that such
consent is inappropriate, improper,
inadequate, or inconsistent with the
requirements of the CWA or APA.
II. Additional Information About

Consent Decree and Proposed Interim
Settlement Agreement
