Let E be an injective module over a commutative Noetherian ring A (with non-zero identity), and let a be an ideal of A. The submodule (0:Eα) of E has a secondary representation, and so we can form the finite set AttA(0:Eα) of its attached prime ideals. In [1, 3.1], we showed that the sequence of sets is ultimately constant; in [2], we introduced the integral closure a*(E) of α relative to E, and showed that is increasing and ultimately constant. In this paper, we prove that, if a contains an element r such that rE = E, then is ultimately constant, and we obtain information about its ultimate constant value.
