Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Pursuant to the Clean Air Act

In accordance with Departmental policy and 28 C.F.R. Sec. 50.7,
notice is hereby given that on November 29, 1996, a partial consent
decree in United States v. Hercules Incorporated et al., Civil Action

U.S.C. Sec. Sec. 7401 et seq., and the National Emission Standard for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for asbestos (``asbestos NESHAP''), in
