Proposed Settlement Agreement

In accordance with section 113(g) of the Clean Air Act, as amended ("Act"), 42 U.S.C. 7413(g), notice is hereby given of a proposed settlement agreement to address a lawsuit filed by Colorado Citizens Against ToxicWaste and Rocky Mountain Clean Air Action (collectively "Plaintiffs") in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado: Colorado Citizens Against ToxicWaste et al. v. Jackson, No. 08-cv-1787 (D. Colo). On or about August 21, 2008, Plaintiffs filed a Complaint alleging that EPA failed to perform a non- discretionary duty to review, and if appropriate revise, 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart W, National Emission Standards for Radon Emissions from Operating Mill Tailings, to comply with the requirements of CAA section 112(d). Under the terms of the proposed settlement agreement, Plaintiffs shall file a motion for voluntary dismissal of the Complaint, with prejudice, within 10 business days after publication in the Federal Register of either: EPA's issuance of a final determination not to revise Subpart W; or EPA's promulgation of a final revision of Subpart W.
