DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Consent Decree in Action Brought Under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
Notice is hereby given that a proposed Consent Decree in United
States v. Boehringer, Civil Action No. 8:CV93-303, was lodged with the
United States District Court for the District of Nebraska on July 27,
1994. This Consent Decree resolves a Complaint filed by the United
States against Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health, Inc.
(``Boehringer'') pursuant to Section 107 of the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (``CERCLA''), 42
U.S.C. Sec. 9607.
The United States Department of Justice brought this action on
behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, seeking to recover
costs incurred by EPA in response to releases of hazardous substances
at the Economy Products warehouse (``the warehouse''), located in
downtown Omaha, Nebraska.
The settlement in this case requires defendant Boehringer to
reimburse the United States in the amount of $100,000.00 for cleanup
costs incurred by EPA at the warehouse. This settlement figure is based
on the minimal amount of hazardous substances sent to the warehouse by
Boehringer.
The Department of Justice will accept written comments relating to
this proposed Consent Decree for thirty (30) days from the date of
publication of this notice. Please address comments to the Assistant
Attorney General, Environment and Natural Resources Division,
