DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Clean Air
Act

On May 19, 2015, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed
Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Ohio Western Division in the lawsuit entitled United States
v. Marathon Petroleum Corporation and Marathon Petroleum Company LP,
Civil Action No. 3:15-cv-00994.
The Consent Decree resolves claims for civil penalties and
injunctive relief arising from alleged violations of the CAA, Sections
211(a), (f) and (k), 42 U.S.C. 7545(a), (f) and (k), and the fuel
regulations published at 40 CFR parts 79 and 80, for potential
violations of the fuel emission standards, volatile organic compound
emissions reduction standards, and sulfur emissions reduction standards
for certain batches of gasoline produced or blended at Marathon's Texas
City and Catlettsburg refineries and its Viney Branch, Louisville-
Kramer Lane, Jacksonville, Lexington, Charlotte, and Tampa Terminals.
The Consent Decree also addresses alleged sampling, testing, reporting,
and recordkeeping violations at various Marathon facilities. In
exchange for a resolution of the foregoing allegations, Marathon will
pay a civil penalty of $2.9 million, retire 5.5 billion sulfur credits,
and install geodesic domes, fixed roofs, or secondary seals and deck
fittings on 14 fuel storage tanks at several of its fuel distribution
terminals that are primarily located in environmental justice areas.
Marathon estimates that these projects will reduce volatile organic
compound emissions, including toxics, by 36.8 tons per year. The total
value of the proposed settlement is estimated to be about $5.71
million.

the ____. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney
