BILLING CODE 4410-18-P DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Notice of Lodging of Proposed Amendment to the Consent Decree Under the Clean Air Act Notice is hereby given that on August 13, 2012, pursuant to 28 CFR 50.7, a proposed Amendment to the Consent Decree (“Amendment”) in the matter of *United States* v. * Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, et al.,* Civil Action No. 4:10-cv-02672-CCC, was lodged with the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. As a part of the Consent Decree in this matter, the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections and Department of General Services (collectively, the “Commonwealth”) agreed to control particulate matter emissions at its Huntingdon, Pennsylvania facility (“the Huntingdon facility”) by either shutting down coal-fired boilers, installing air emission controls on the existing unit, or converting the coal-fired boilers to natural gas-fired boilers by June 30, 2012.
The Commonwealth did not meet the deadline imposed in the Consent Decree for the Huntingdon facility. The proposed Amendment requires the Commonwealth to either install new units with pollution controls or convert existing units to natural gas fired units by June 30, 2013. The Commonwealth will also pay a civil of $39,000. The Department of Justice will receive for a period of thirty
