## Summary

THIS IS A PROPOSED CIVIL ACTION AGAINST THE CITY OF         RICHFIELD, UTAH, FOR VIOLATIONS OF SECT 301(A) OF THE CLEAN  WATER ACT, 33 U.S.C. SECTION 1311(A).  THE CITY OF RICHFIELD OWNS AND OPERATES A WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT.  THIS ACTION IS FOR NPDES PERMIT VIOLATIONS OCCURRING FROM AUGUST 1979 TO APRIL 1982.  THE CITY OF RICHFIELD HAS CONSISTANTLY FAILED   TO SUBMIT TIMELY MONTHLY DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS (DMR)  AS REQUIRED BY THE PERMIT.  THESE REPORTS HAVE BEEN AS LATE  114 DAYS.  TWO ADMINISTRATIVE ORDERS WERE ISSUED BY REGION   VIII REQUESTING PRODUCTION OF SEVERAL OF THE LATE DMR'S.     ALTHOUGH THESE A.O.'S DID CAUSE THE CITY TO SUBMIT THE       MISSING REPORTS, THE PATTERN OF EXTREMELY TARDY SUBMISSION   CONTINUED.                                                     ALTHOUGH THE DRAFT COMPLAINT FOR THE PROPOSED CIVIL ACTION AGAINST THE CITY OF RICHFIELD SEEKS CIVIL PENALTIES, THE     RECOMMENDED RESOLUTION OF THE CASE IS A CONSENT JUDGEMENT    WITH THE CITY AGREEING TO COMPLY WITH ITS NPDES PERMIT CON-  DITIONS AND FURTHER AGREEING TO PAY A $100 PER DAY           STIPULATED PENALTY SHOULD IT FAIL TO DO SO.  THE NEWLY       ELECTED MAYOR HAS ORDERED THE CITY ENGINEER TO COMPLY WITH   THE PERMIT.  THE ATTORNEY FOR THE CITY OF RICHFIELD HAS      AGREED TO THE TERMS OF THE PROPOSED CONSENT DECREE.
