N:\Data Analysis\Annual Reports\01 Stat Report\Final Edits\01Open Dft U.S. Department of Justice Executive Office for United States Attorneys United States Attorneys’ Annual Statistical Report Fiscal Year 2001 UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS’ ANNUAL STATISTICAL REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2001 The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor -- indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one. Quoted from the Statement of Mr. Justice Sutherland in Berger v. United States, 295 U.S. 88 (1935) U.S. Department of Justice Executive Office for United States Attorneys Office of the Director Washington, DC 20530 MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR It is my pleasure to present to you the United States Attorneys’ Annual Statistical Report for Fiscal Year 2001. The report is made up of narrative information describing the United States Attorneys’ programs and initiatives over the past year, summaries of some of the most interesting and important cases that culminated during Fiscal Year 2001, and statistical tables displaying both national and district caseload data. The report represents the work of the women and men of the United States Attorneys’ offices in the 94 federal judicial districts located throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. In the wake of September 11, 2001, the work of enforcing our federal laws and keeping our nation safe is more important than ever. The women and men of the United States Attorneys’ offices are, as always, committed to enforcing these laws and representing the interests of the United States. The United States Attorneys, under the direction of the Attorney General, are responsible for investigating and prosecuting those who violate our nation’s laws, for asserting and defending the interests of the United States, its departments, and agencies through the conduct of civil litigation, and for representing the United States in our appellate courts. The United States Attorneys, appointed to serve in the 94 federal judicial districts throughout the country, are charged with carrying out these prosecution, litigation, and appellate responsibilities within their respective districts. Although there are 94 federal judicial districts, there are only 93 United States Attorneys because one United States Attorney is appointed to serve in both the Districts of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands. The United States Attorneys direct and supervise the work of the Assistant United States Attorneys and support personnel located in each district’s headquarters office and, as needed, in staffed branch offices. The United States Attorney system nationwide consisted of 94 headquarters offices and 126 staffed branch offices, as of the end of Fiscal Year 2001. The United States Attorneys’ offices conduct most of the criminal prosecutions and civil litigation handled by the Department of Justice. The offices investigate and prosecute a wide range of criminal activities, from domestic and international terrorism, to organized drug trafficking and firearms crimes, to white collar crime and other regulatory offenses. In the civil arena, the United States Attorneys’ offices defend federal government agencies, for example, in tort suits brought by those who allege suffering as a result of government actions, or alleged medical malpractice by federal employees. The United States Attorneys also initiate civil cases against individuals or businesses to enforce the laws, such as in civil health care fraud cases, or to represent the government’s interests, such as in bankruptcy actions.

(“AZR”)1 respectfully submits the following comments on the City of Chicago Department of Public Health’s (the “Department”) proposed April 18, 2018 amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Rules and Regulations for Control of Emissions from the Handling and Storage of Bulk Solid Materials (the “BSM Rules”). The Amendments primarily address additional requirements relating to the defined term of “Manganese-Bearing Materials.” AZR has invested approximately $2 million to comply with the existing BSM Rules. The Amendments threaten to impose even more costs upon AZR without justification considering that AZR’s operations do not contribute to the public health risks which the Amendments are intended to address. AZR has been a good neighbor within its community. It has not caused fugitive dust problems. It has not created threats to the public health due to manganese or any other toxic substances. What it does do is provide good jobs to its employees and provides an environmentally beneficial operation that uses waste material which would otherwise go to a landfill and turns that material into useful products. AZR appreciates that at other locations within the City of Chicago, there have been developments that warranted regulating certain businesses to address identified problems that presented a risk to the public health or environment.

The Gansu Delegation is a group of government officials and engineers who are involved in energy and pollution programs in their province. The purpose of their trip was to learn more about how the U. S. government and other organizations deal with energy and pollution issues. The visit was coordinated by the 21st Century Institute in Chicago, which is a non-profit organization that promotes exchange programs between China and U. S. in the areas of culture, business, environment and education. Board Member Lin, Attorney Assistant Marie Tipsord, and I hosted the group for a seminar at our offices in Springfield. We spent several hours describing the responsibilities, goals, and organization of the Board, including specific examples of our regulatory and adjudicatory actions. The Gansu Delegation asked numerous questions; and was particularly interested in the interactions among the various Illinois agencies with environmental responsibilities, as well as our relationship to federal authorities. We were greatly honored to have such wonderful guests. In February, the Board also held hearings in three ongoing rulemakings.

  • Ie U.S. Copper-Base Scrap Industry and Its By-Products
    ie U.S. Copper-base Scrap Industry And Its By-products Ai Cveiview Eleventh Edition January 2011 Copper Development Association Inc. 260 Madison Avenue New York, NY 10016 (212) 251-7200 www.copper.org Janice L. Jolly Dayton, Maryland EEFACE The purpose of this report is to provide a brief background on the U.S. copper and copper alloy secondary processing industry. It is felt that policy and decision-makers can use a ready reference on an industry that is generally so little understood. The industry has undergone many changes over the past few decades and has been in decline over much of the last ten years.. While the coverage is not comprehensive, a brief mention is made of the many problems impacting the health of the industry. The secondary industry and the Government agencies most concerned with legislation affecting the collection, processing and markets for scrap are both working to overcome some of the current difficulties. Nevertheless, for some sectors of the secondary copper industry, the past ten years have been particularly difficult, given the restrictions within which they have operated, the potential for new restrictions, and the current copper market. The author would particularly like to thank those in the industry who were kind enough to host informative visits to their plants and to provide much of the information contained in this report. In particular, Alan Silber of RECAP, who was of tremendous help in outlining the original report. Daniel Edelstein, Copper Specialist with the U.S. Geological Survey, also provided substantial help and advice. The International Copper Study Group, was of great assistance in providing world copper industry statistics.

  • Npl Site Listing Narrative
    OSWER/OSRTI Washington, DC 20460 NATIONAL PRIORITIES LIST (NPL) ***Final Site*** March 2010 CHEMETCO Madison County, Illinois Site Location: Chemetco is located approximately two miles south of the Village of Hartford, Madison County, Illinois. Site History: Chemetco was a former secondary copper smelter operation which operated from 1969 to 2001. The former smelter property occupied more than 230 acres of land, but operated on 41 acres located near the smelter operations. Chemetco’s major function was recycling or secondary processing of copper-bearing scrap and manufacturing residues. This process produced waste byproducts such as slag, zinc oxide (scrubber sludge), and spent refractory brick. On October 31, 2001, the facility was shut down, and filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy on November 13, 2001. On December 7, 2001 the Illinois EPA issued an order to seal Chemetco. Site Contamination/Contaminants: Approximately 452,254 cubic yards of waste slag material have been stockpiled on the northeast corner of the facility property. Approximately 62,204 cubic yards of zinc oxide (scrubber sludge) has been identified as being located in five separate areas on the Chemetco property, including a 2.5 acre concrete bunker located at the north end of the facility. Elevated levels of cadmium, copper and lead have been found in the waste slag material and the zinc oxide. Potential Impacts on Surrounding Community/Environment: Elevated levels of cadmium, copper and lead have been found in the sediments collected from the wetlands and Long Lake downstream of Chemetco. Response Activities (to date): Chemetco fenced the 41 acres near the smelter operations to secure the site.
