BILLING CODE 4410-15-M DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of Partial Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) Consistent with Departmental policy, 28 CFR 50.7, 38 FR 19029, and 42 U.S.C. 962(d) notice is hereby given that on May 25, 2004, a proposed Partial Consent Decree in *United States* v. *FMC Corporation, et al.,* Civil Action No. 01-0476(KSH), was lodged with the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.
