BILLING CODE 7020-02-P DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act Notice is hereby given that on April 22, 2010, a proposed Partial Consent Decree (“CD”) in *United States* v. *James Y. Saporito and Paul Carr,* Civil Action No. 07-cv-03169, was lodged with the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. In this action, the United States seeks on behalf of the United States Environmental Protection Agency recovery of response costs incurred at the Crescent Plating Works Superfund Site (the “Site”) in Chicago, Illinois, pursuant to Section 107 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. 9607.
The CD resolves a claim that Paul Carr (“Settling Defendant”), as current operator of the Site, is liable to the United States for reimbursement of costs incurred as a result of responding to a release, or threat of release, of hazardous substances from the Site. Based upon the Settling Defendant's ability to pay, he will not be required to pay any response costs related to the Site. Contingent on the veracity of the Settling Defendant's certifications made in the Partial Consent Decree and his fulfilling any obligations required in the Partial Consent Decree, the United States covenants not to sue the settling defendant's pursuant to CERCLA Sections 106 and 107, 42 U.S.C. 9606 and 9607.
