DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


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

    Notice is hereby given that an agreed order amending the consent 
decree in United States v. A&D Recycling, Inc., et al., Civil Action 
No. 1:CV-99-1332 (M.D. Pa.) was lodged with the court on January 22, 
2001.
    The original consent decree resolves claims of the United States 
against 120 defendants under sections 106 and 107 of the Comprehensive 
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, as amended ( 
``CERCLA'' ), 42 U.S.C. 9606 and 9607, for response costs and actions 
at the Jack's Creek Superfund Site in Mifflin County, PA. The proposed 
amendment reduces the amount one de minimis party, United Holdings Co., 
Inc., is required to pay from $58,526.44 to $33,600. This reduction is 
made based on a mutual mistake of fact in the original decree as to the 
amount of material United sent to the site.

days from the date of this publication, comments relating to the 
proposed amendment. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant

    The proposed amendment may be examined and copied at the Office of 
the United States Attorney, Room 1162, Federal Building, 228 Walnut 
Street, Harrisburg, PA 17108; or at the Region III Office of the 
Environmental Protection Agency, c/o Daniel Isales, Assistant Regional 
Counsel, 1650 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103. A copy of the 
proposed amendment may be obtained by mail from the Consent Decree 
Library, P.O. Box No. 7611, Washington, DC 20044. In requesting a copy,
