permit application to the United States Army Corps of Engineers within
90 days of the entry of the Consent Decree. Defendant has also agreed
to abide by regulations for the permit programs under the RHA and
section 404 of the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1344.
The Department of Justice will receive written comments relating to
the proposed Consent Decree for a period of 30 days from the date of
