DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree
Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act
Notice is hereby given that on July 27,
2012, a proposed Amendment to
Consent Decree was lodged with the
United States District Court for the
Northern District of Ohio in United
States v. Lorain County Metropolitan
Park District, et al., Civil Action No.
1:08-cv-03026.
Under a consent decree previously
entered by the district court in this
action under Sections 106 and 107 of

PO 00000

Frm 00106

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’), 42 U.S.C.
9606 and 9607, the former General
Motors Corporation, now known as
Motors Liquidation Company (‘‘GM’’),
was one of several Settling Defendants
responsible for implementing a remedial
action to address releases and
threatened releases of hazardous
substances at and from the Ford Road
Industrial Landfill Site (the ‘‘Site’’) in
Elyria, Ohio. Pursuant to financial
assurance requirements of the consent
decree, GM obtained a performance
bond from Westchester Fire Insurance
Company (‘‘Westchester’’). After filing
for bankruptcy in 2009, GM stopped
participating in implementation of the
remedial action at the Site.
Under the proposed Amendment to
Consent Decree, Westchester will
become a party to the consent decree
and become responsible for financing
implementation of the remedial action
at the Site, up to a $589,322 limit that
corresponds to the outstanding amount
of the original performance bond issued
by Westchester. Westchester’s
obligations will include: (1)
Reimbursing 50 percent of the response
costs incurred by the other Settling
Defendants between June 1, 2009, when
GM stopped participating in
implementation of the consent decree,
and the effective date of the
Amendment to Consent Decree; (2)
monthly reimbursement of 50 percent of
the ongoing remedial costs incurred by
the other Settling Defendants after the
effective date of the Amendment to
Consent Decree; (3) acceleration of
remaining payments (up to the $589,322
limit) in accordance with instructions to
be provided by EPA, in the event that
EPA takes over implementation of any
Work, pursuant to provisions of the
previously entered consent decree. In
addition, to guarantee performance of its
obligations under the proposed
Amendment to Consent Decree,
Westchester will establish a trust for the
benefit of EPA, and maintain a trust
balance that is equal to its outstanding
liability relating to the Site.
The Department of Justice will receive
comments relating to the Amendment to
Consent Decree for a period of thirty
(30) days from the date of this
publication. Comments should be
addressed to the Assistant Attorney
General, Environment and Natural
Resources Division, and either emailed
to [email protected] or
mailed to P.O. Box 7611, U.S.
Department of Justice, Washington, DC
20044–7611. The comments should
refer to United States v. Lorain County
