Alliant Techsystems Inc.; Proposed Consent Agreement With Analysis To Aid Public Comment

In settlement of alleged violations of federal law prohibiting unfair acts and practices and unfair methods of competition, this consent agreement, accepted subject to final Commission approval, would permit, among other things, Alliant Techsystems Inc. (Alliant), a Minnesota-based defense contractor, to acquire Hercules Inc.'s propellant division, Hercules Aerospace Company, under certain conditions, and would require Alliant to prevent its newly acquired propellant division from sharing non-public information with Alliant's ammunition and munitions division. Alliant also would have to notify its propellant customers of the Commission order before obtaining any non-public information from them.
