ORDER OF INJUNCTION AND ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION

ROSLYNN R. MAUSKOPF, District Judge.

On July 9, 2018, the United States ("the Government"), on behalf of the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), commenced this action against pro se defendant Gordon Smith, Sr., a member of the Shinnecock Indian Nation, alleging that he violated the Clean Water Act ("CWA"), 33 U.S.C. § 1319(b) and (d), by unlawfully discharging pollutants into waters of the United States, specifically wetlands, in Southampton, New York. The Government moved for a preliminary injunction and for an order, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(d)(1), for limited expedited discovery requiring Smith to respond to a Request for Information originally sent to him by the EPA. (Doc. No. 10.) On August 22, 2018, Judge Bianco, to whom this case was previously assigned, referred the Government's motions for a preliminary injunction and for limited expedited discovery to Magistrate Judge Kathleen A. Tomlinson for a Report and Recommendation. (Doc. No. 18.) On May 30, 2019, this matter was reassigned to the undersigned.

On September 30, 2019, Judge Tomlinson issued her report and recommendation (the "R&R"), (Doc. No. 25), which recommends that the Government's motions for a preliminary injunction and limited expedited discovery be granted, and that Smith be ordered to respond to an updated Request for Information. The R&R expressly advised the parties that, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b) and 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), any objection to the R&R had to be filed within 14 days of receipt of the R&R. The Government mailed the R&R to Smith on October 8, 2019. (Doc. No. 26.) To date, no party has filed any objection, and the time for doing so has expired.

When determining whether to adopt a report and recommendation, a district court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Where no party has objected to a magistrate judge's report and recommendation, the court may adopt it without de novo review. See Trustees of Local 7 Tile Indus. Welfare Fund v. Caesar Max Const. Inc., No. 18-CV-1339 (FB) (LB), 2019 WL 1129430, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. Mar. 12, 2019). "To accept the report and recommendation of a magistrate, to which no timely objection has been made, a district court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record." Jarvis v. N. Am. Globex Fund, L.P., 823 F.Supp.2d 161, 163 (E.D.N.Y. 2011) (internal quotation marks omitted) (citation omitted); see also Riverkeeper, Inc. v. MLV Concrete, Inc., No. 14-CV-3762 (LDH) (PK), 2017 WL 3172859, at *1 (E.D.N.Y. July 25, 2017).

The Court has reviewed the record and, finding no clear error, adopts the R&R in its entirety as the opinion of the Court.1

Accordingly, the Court grants the Government's motion for a preliminary injunction, and for expedited discovery as follows:

ORDERED, that defendant Gordon Smith, Sr., and those acting in concert with him are enjoined during the pendency of this action, or until further Order of this Court, from placing fill material into waters of the United States from Smith's allotment of land, located at 5 East Creek Way on the eastern shore of the Shinnecock Indian Nation territory within the geographic boundaries of the Town of Southampton, New York; and it is

FURTHER ORDERED that defendant Gordon Smith, Sr. respond within 21 days of the date of this Order to the Request for Information (RFI) originally sent to him on March 1, 2017; and it is

FURTHER ORDERED, that the Government serve on defendant Gordon Smith, Sr., by overnight mail, a copy of this Order, using the following addresses, and immediately file proof of service:

This action is re-committed to Magistrate Judge Tomlinson for supervision of discovery, and for all remaining pretrial matters.

SO ORDERED.
