Notice of Lodging of Proposed Consent Decree Under the Oil 
Pollution Act

    On November 9, 2018, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed 
Consent Decree with the United States District Court for the Eastern 
District of Louisiana in the lawsuit entitled United States of America 
and State of Louisiana v. Hess Corporation, Civil Action No. 2:18-cv-
10727. The United States is acting at the request of the designated 
federal trustee: The United States Department of the Interior, through 
the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. The State of Louisiana 
(the ``State'') is acting through its designated State trustees: The 
Louisiana Oil Spill Coordinator's Office, Department of Public Safety, 
Louisiana Department of Natural Resources, Louisiana Department of 
Environmental Quality, Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, 
and the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority.
    The United States and the State have filed a Complaint against Hess 
Corporation (``Hess'') under Section 1002 of the Oil Pollution Act 
(``OPA''), 33 U.S.C. 2702, and Section 2480 of the Louisiana Oil Spill 
Prevention and Response Act (``OSPRA''), La. Rev. Stat. 30:2480, for 
the recovery of damages for injury to, destruction of, loss of, or loss 
of use of natural resources, plus the unreimbursed costs of assessing 
such injuries, resulting from Hess's crude oil discharge into the Gulf 
of Mexico from its offshore platform in Block 51 of Breton Sound, 
Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, on or about June 12, 2005.
    Under the proposed Consent Decree, Hess will pay a total of 
$8,723,394.88. Of this total, Hess will pay $8.630 million to the 
trustees to restore, replace, or acquire the equivalent of the natural 
resources allegedly injured, destroyed, or lost as a result of the oil 
spill and $93,394.88 to reimburse the trustees for all remaining unpaid 
assessment costs.
    The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on 
the proposed Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the
