BILLING CODE 4410-15-M DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act Under 42 U.S.C. 9622(d)(2) and 28 CFR 50.7, notice is hereby given that on April 12, 2006, a proposed Consent Decree in *United States and the State of Wisconsin* v. *NCR Corporation and Sonoco-U.S. Mills, Inc.* , Civil Action No. 06-CV-00484 (E.D. Wis.) was lodged with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin.
