Tacoma Port of Parcel 88
Site Background
Site Cleanup
- petroleum hydrocarbons and
- metals, like lead, copper, arsenic, and zinc.
A former owner and the port cleaned up the site by removing polluted soil, debris, and old underground storage tanks. The port restored 30 acres of habitat in 2010. Read more about the cleanup actions in this 2013 fact sheet.
The port monitored groundwater four times a year to make sure cleanup levels were reached. Now, a full year of monitoring shows groundwater contamination is below state cleanup levels. Ecology has determined cleanup at the site is complete.
Ecology provided the port with a $3 million Remedial Action Grant to help with a part of the cleanup cost.
