A plea agreement was filed in this case at Docket 14. Pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, this matter was referred to the Honorable Magistrate Judge Kyle F. Reardon by the District Court, with the written and oral consents of Defendant, counsel for Defendant, and counsel for the United States. A proposed change of plea hearing was held before the magistrate judge at which Defendant entered a guilty plea to Count 1 of the Felony Information, Illegal Disposal of Hazardous Waste, which is a violation of 42 U.S.C.§ 6928(d)(2)(A).

The matter is now before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The Court has reviewed the Final Report and Recommendation and adopts it. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the Court ACCEPTS Defendant's plea of guilty to Count 1 of the Felony Information and Defendant is adjudged GUILTY of Count 1. An Imposition of Sentence hearing will be held on February 16, 2023, at 11:00 a.m. before District Judge Sharon L. Gleason in Anchorage Courtroom 2.
