Skagit Farmers Supply Wolfkill Yard

The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) removed the Skagit Farmers Supply Wolfkill Yard Site from the Hazardous Sites List in February 2014. The Site is located at 205 West Fir Street, Mount Vernon, WA. In 2010, this Site was ranked a five and placed on the Hazardous Sites List. The Hazardous Sites List (HSL) is a record of contaminated sites throughout the state that are ranked on a scale of one to five. One represents the greatest potential threat to human health and the environment relative to all sites ranked, and five represents the least potential threat. 
 
The Site is located in a mixed industrial/commercial area. The Site was owned by Wolfkill Feed and Fertilizer until the early 1990s when it was acquired by Skagit Farmers Supply. Wolfkill had used the Site for approximately 33 years for retail sales primarily to farmers. The Site comprises approximately 2 acres. Four underground storage tanks (USTs) were removed from the Site in 1989. The cleanup consisted of excavation and off-site disposal of 670 cubic yards of petroleum contaminated soil immediately after removal of the USTs. Soil cleanup levels for unrestricted use protective of direct human contact and ground water protection are required at this Site.
