In accordance with section 122(d)(2) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C.
9622(d)(2) as well as Departmental Policy, 28 CFR 50.7, notice is
hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in United States v. NSA,
Division of Southwire Company (``NSA''), Civil Action No. 93-00159 was

of Kentucky on December 16, 1993. Under this Decree, the settling
defendant, NSA, will construct and operate an interim remedial action
at its aluminum production facility located near Hawesville, Kentucky.

EPA will select a final remedial action for the site. The Decree also
requires that NSA reimburse EPA for costs incurred and to be incurred
at the site.

Consent Decree. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant Attorney
