COMPLAINT

1. Plaintiffs bring suit as private attorneys general under the citizen suit provisions of the CWA, RCRA, and CERCLA, and for tort damages under the Federal Tort Claims Act, against the President, for discarding lead bullets onto state owned lakebeds which are held in trust for the public, and thereby damaging natural resources and the public water supply. The accumulation of these discharges over 90 years has created an imminent and substantial endangerment for which Plaintiffs ask this Court to use its broad statutory powers to order Defendants to stop discharging lead bullets onto state owned lakebeds and into the Nation’s waters, order Defendants to pay $35.2 million to assess and remove the hazardous material in Lake Michigan at the FBI facility in North Chicago, and order Defendants to compensate the public for damage to natural resources with a Supplemental Environmental Project in the amount of $20 million.
