Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the 
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act

    On May 16, 2018, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
consent decree with the United States District Court for the Southern 
District of Georgia in the lawsuit entitled United States v. Hercules 
LLC, Civil Action No. 2:18-cv-00062-LGW-RSB.
    The United States, on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA), filed this lawsuit under the Comprehensive Environmental 
Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). The complaint seeks 
performance of interim response action at the outfall of the Terry 
Creek Dredge Spoil Areas/Hercules Outfall Site (``Site'') in Brunswick, 
in Glynn County, Georgia. The outfall is known as ``Operable Unit 1,'' 
one of three operable units at the Site. The complaint also seeks 
recovery of the United States' past response costs and future response 
costs at the Site.
    The proposed consent decree requires defendant Hercules LLC to 
implement the interim remedy selected by EPA for Operable Unit 1, which 
is estimated to cost $4,488,450. The consent decree also requires the 
defendant to pay $153,009.48 in past response costs at the Site, and to 
pay future response costs incurred by the United States in connection 
with this consent decree, as described in the consent decree.
    The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on 
the consent decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant 
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division, and
