Id.
On June 30, 2023, Viking filed an
Omnibus Motion for Monetary and NonMonetary Sanctions Against
Respondents and their Counsel, alleging
failure to cooperate during discovery,
failure to cooperate during forensic
examinations, and violations of the
terms of certain orders.
On August 10, 2023, Foster, Murphy,
Altman & Nickel, PC (‘‘Foster Murphy’’)
moved to intervene in this investigation
for the limited purpose of defending
Foster Murphy and its attorneys’
interest in response to complainant
Viking’s omnibus motion for sanctions.
The motion was unopposed.
On August 28, 2023, the presiding
administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued
the subject ID (Order No. 37) pursuant
to Commission Rule 210.19 (19 CFR
210.19) granting Foster Murphy’s
motion to intervene. Order No. 37 (Aug.
28, 2023). The ALJ states that the
sanctions motion seeks joint and several
liability between the Ascletis
Respondents and Foster Murphy for
discovery abuse. Id. at 4–5. The ALJ
finds that Viking’s sanctions motion
makes specific allegations that implicate
Foster Murphy and its attorneys. Id. at
5. The ALJ finds that, in view of these
separate interests, the limited purpose
of the intervention, and the lack of
opposition, Foster Murphy’s motion to
intervene is granted. Id. at 6.
No party filed a petition for review.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID.
The Commission vote for this
determination took place on September
22, 2023.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in Part
210 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part
210).
By order of the Commission.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Water
Act
On September 19, 2023, the
Department of Justice lodged a proposed
Consent Decree (the ‘‘Consent Decree’’)
with the District Court of the Southern
District of New York in a lawsuit
entitled United States of America, et al.
v. City of Mount Vernon., Civil Action
No. 18–5845.
In this action, the United States and
State of New York seek injunctive relief
compelling the City of Mount Vernon to
comply with the Clean Water Act in its
operation of a municipal separate storm
sewer system. The lawsuit also seeks
civil penalties for past violations.
The proposed Consent Decree
resolves the United States’ and States’
civil claims. It imposes injunctive relief
requiring Mount Vernon to take steps
necessary to bring its municipal
separate storm sewer system into
compliance. It also requires Mount
Vernon to pay a $100,000 civil penalty
to the United States and imposes (but
suspends payment of) a $100,000 civil
penalty owed to the State of New York.
The publication of this notice opens
the public comment on the proposed
settlement. Comments should be
addressed to the Assistant Attorney
General, Environment and Natural
Resources Division, and should refer to
