DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Air
Act
On May 21, 2018, the Department of
Justice lodged a proposed consent
decree with the United States District
Court for the Northern District of
Georgia in the lawsuit entitled United
States v. MFG Chemical, LLC, Civil
Action Number 4:18–cv–00121–HLM.
The proposed consent decree would
resolve claims set forth in the complaint
filed in this lawsuit, asserted by the
United States against Defendant MFG
Chemical, LLC (‘‘MFG’’) pursuant to
Section 112(r)(1) of the Clean Air Act
(‘‘CAA’’), 42 U.S.C. 7412(r)(1), with
respect to MFG’s chemical
manufacturing and processing facility
located at 117 Callahan Road SE,
Dalton, Georgia (‘‘Facility’’). The claims
alleged in the complaint pertain to a
chemical explosion at the Facility on
May 21, 2012, and are based on MFG’s
failure to identify and address the
hazards associated with the batch
manufacture of a chemical compound
known as coagulant 129, in violation of
the General Duty Clause (‘‘GDC’’) of the
CAA. The proposed consent decree
would require MFG to pay a civil
penalty of $400,000 as well as perform
injunctive relief designed to bring MFG
into compliance with the GDC and to
minimize the risk of future problems at
the Facility.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed consent decree and proposed
settlement agreement. Comments should

General, Environment and Natural
Resources Division, and should refer to
