United States v. Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (Amended)
Under a second amendment to a CWA consent decree lodged in 2005, a settling party has an additional six years to complete collection system repair work necessary to eliminate sanitary sewer overflows; the settling party has been unable to complete a sizable portion of the work due to delays in obtaining necessary permits from governmental agencies and the need to institute condemnation proceedings to obtain access to private property to perform sewer work.
