Proposed Consent Decree, Clean Air Act Citizen Suit

In accordance with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended ("CAA" or the "Act"), 42 U.S.C. 7413(g), notice is hereby given of a proposed consent decree to address a lawsuit filed by the Center for Biological Diversity, Greenpeace, Inc., and Port Townsend Airwatchers (collectively, "Plaintiffs") in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California: Center for Biological Diversity, et al. v. EPA, No. C-11-06059 YGR (N.D. CA). On December 6, 2011, Plaintiffs filed a complaint alleging that EPA failed to review, and if appropriate revise, the New Source Performance Standards for Kraft Pulp Mills ("Kraft Pulp NSPS") under CAA section 111(b)(1)(B), 42 U.S.C. 7411(b)(1)(B). The proposed consent decree establishes deadlines for EPA to take action.
