DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Amendment To Consent Decree Pursuant to the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act

In accordance with Departmental policy, 28 CFR 50.7, and 42 U.S.C.
9622(d)(2), notice is hereby given that a proposed amendment to the
consent decree in United States v. GATX Corporation and General
American Transportation Corporation, Civil Action No. 94-312E, was
lodged on June 1, 1995 with the United States District Court for the
Western District of Pennsylvania. The original Consent Decree requires
the defendants to excavate and incinerate contaminated soils and
sludges at the Site at the Saegertown Industrial Area Site in
Saegertown, Crawford County, Pennsylvania. The Consent Decree also
requires the defendants to pay a portion of the United States past and
future costs associated with the Site. Further, the consent decree
requires the defendants to reimburse the United States for damages
caused to the natural resources within the trusteeship of the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service.
The proposed amendment to the Consent Decree modifies the clean up
that the defendants must perform. Instead of on-site incineration, the
proposed amendment would require transportation of the sludges and
soils to an off-site cement kiln, where the materials will be used as
an alternative fuel.
The Department of Justice will receive, for a period of thirty (30)
days from the date of this publication, comments relating to the
proposed consent decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant
Attorney General for the Environment and Natural Resources Division,
Department of Justice, Washington, D.C. 20530, and should refer to
United States v. GATX Corporation and General American Transportation
Corporation, DOJ Ref. #90-11-2-870.
The proposed consent decree may be examined at the office of the
United States Attorney, 633 Post Office & Courthouse, 7th & Grant
Streets, Pittsburgh, PA 15219; the Region III Office of the
Environmental Protection Agency, 841 Chestnut Building, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania 19107; and at the Consent Decree Library, 1120 G Street,
NW., 4th Floor, Washington, DC 20005, (202) 624-0892. A copy of the
proposed consent decree may be obtained in person or by mail from the
Consent Decree Library, 1120 G Street, N.W., 4th Floor, Washington,
D.C. 20005. In requesting a copy please refer to the referenced case
and enclose a check in the amount of $44.55 (25 cents per page
reproduction costs), payable to the Consent Decree Library.
Bruce S. Gelbert,
Acting Chief, Environmental Enforcement Section, Environment and
Natural Resources Division.
