DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Filing of Proposed
Stipulation by the United States To
Resolve Certain Alleged Violations of a
Clean Air Act Consent Decree With
Alcoa, Inc.
Notice is hereby given that on
November 15, 2006, the United States
filed with the United States District
Court for the Western District of Texas,
in Cast No. A–03–CA–222–SS, a motion
for judicial approval of a stipulation that
it has entered into with Defendant Alcoa
Inc. (‘‘Alcoa’’) and Intervenor-Defendant
TXU Sandow Development Company
LP (‘‘TXU Sandow’’) to resolve certain
alleged violations of the Consent Decree
in this action. The specific alleged
violations addressed by the stipulation
relate to Alcoa’s failure to commence
construction of one or more new units
(the ‘‘Replacement Sandow Units’’) to
replace the three existing electricity
generating units (the ‘‘Existing Sandow
Units’’) at Alcoa’s Rockdale, Texas,
facility by April 25, 2005; and Alcoa’s
anticipated failure to commence
operation of the new replacement units
by April 25, 2007. The relief provided
by the stipulation is set forth in a
proposed order (‘‘Stipulated Order’’)
that the United States tendered with its
PO 00000 Frm 00100 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\22NON1.SGM
motion. This Stipulated Order provides
for, among other things:
• Payment of $859,000 in stipulated
penalties as part of the resolution of
Alcoa’s anticipated failure to commence
timely operation of the Replacement
Sandow Units by April 25, 2007;
• Shutdown of the three Existing
Sandow Units by December 31, 2006,
roughly four months earlier than
required by the consent decree;
• A commitment by Alcoa and TXU
Sandow to commence operation of the
Replacement Sandow Unit with full
emission controls by no later than
August 31, 2009;
• A commitment by Alcoa and TXU
Sandow to achieve an emission rate for
NOX at the Replacement Sandow Unit
that is 20% lower than the rate currently
provided for in the Consent Decree; and
• A commitment by TXU Sandow to
install selective catalytic reduction
system (‘‘SCR’’) to eliminate most of the
remaining NOX emissions from Sandow
Unit 4—a unit not previously addressed
by the consent decree.
The Stipulated Order also provides
for the addition of TXU Sandow as a
party to the Consent Decree, jointly and
severally liable with Alcoa for the
obligations pertaining to the
Replacement Sandow Unit, and solely
liable for the obligations pertaining to
the SCR at Sandow Unit 4.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of twenty (20) days from the
date of this publication comments
relating to the proposed Stipulated
Order. Comments should be addressed
