DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE


Notice of Lodging of Consent Decree Pursuant to The Comprehensive 
Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act (``CERCLA'')

    Notice is hereby given that a proposed consent decree in United 
States v. Agway Inc., et al. Civ. No. 3:01cv0637 NAM/GLS, was lodged on 
May 1, 2001 with the United States District Court for the Northern 
District of New York. The Consent Decree concerns hazardous waste 
contamination at the Tr-Cities Barrel Superfund Site (the ``Site''), 
located in the Town of Fenton, Broome County, New York. The Consent 
Decree would resolve the liability for reimbursement of response costs 
incurred by the United States in connection with the Site as to forty-
three potentially responsible parties against whom the United States 
filed a complaint on behalf of the United States Environmental 
Protection Agency (``EPA''). The Consent Decree also requires the 
settling defendants to perform the Remedial Design/Remedial Action 
(``RD/RA'') as set forth in the Record of Decision issued by EPA on 
March 31, 2000.
    The Department of Justice will receive, for a period of thirty (30)
