DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed First Material Modification of
Consent Decree Under the Clean Water Act
On November 15, 2024, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed
first material modification to the Consent Decree with the United
States District Court for the Western District of Washington in the
lawsuit entitled United States and State of Washington v. City of
Seattle, Civil Action No. 2:13-cv-00678-JCC.
The proposed modification revises provisions in a Consent Decree
between the parties that was entered by the Court on July 3, 2013. The
proposed modification would revise certain sewer control measures,
design criteria, deadlines, and adaptive management procedures in the
Consent Decree to address changed circumstances since the Decree was
first entered, and would update and clarify a number of related
provisions.
The publication of this notice opens a period for public comment on
the modification. Comments should be addressed to the Assistant
Attorney General, Environment and Natural
