Anacortes Former Water Treatment Plant: Delisting

Para someter comentarios en español, cambie el idioma de arriba


Fact Sheets: English, Español


Ecology invites you to comment on our proposal to remove the Anacortes Former Water Treatment Plant from the Contaminated Sites List. The site is located next to the Skagit River in Mount Vernon and is next to the current water treatment plant, which provides drinking water for the City of Anacortes and the surrounding communities.

Ecology has determined that no further action is needed to clean up contamination at the site under the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA), the state’s cleanup law. Ecology has also determined that no post-cleanup controls or monitoring are necessary under MTCA. There are two legal agreements currently in place. One will be satisfied at the end of this comment period (Agreed Order), and the other will be dismissed in court in the future (Consent Decree).


El Departamento de Ecología (Ecología) le invita a comentar sobre nuestra propuesta para eliminar la antigua planta de tratamiento de aguas de Anacortes de la Lista de Sitios Contaminados. El sitio está ubicado junto al río Skagit en Mount Vernon, aledaño a la planta de tratamiento de aguas actual que le suple agua a la Ciudad de Anacortes y las comunidades circundantes.

Ecología ha determinado que, bajo la ley de limpieza del estado, llamada Ley Modelo de Control de Sustancias Tóxicas (MTCA, del inglés Model Toxics Control Act), no hace falta más acción para limpiar la contaminación en el sitio. Ecología también ha determinado que no se necesitan controles o monitoreo poslimpieza bajo MTCA. Hay dos acuerdos legales en pie actualmente. Uno se cumplirá al final de este periodo de comentarios (Orden Acordada), y el otro se desestimará en corte en el futuro (Acuerdo de Consentimiento).
