    In accordance with Departmental Policy, 28 CFR 50.7, notice is 
hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in United States v. 
Barrett, No. 4:07-CV-128-TSL-LRA, was lodged with the U.S. District 
Court for the Southern District of Mississippi on August 13, 2010.
    The proposed Consent Decree concerns a complaint filed by the

civil penalties against the defendants for the unauthorized discharge 
of pollutants in Neshoba County, Mississippi, in violation of sections
