Broadview Service

Broadview Service was cleaned up under Ecology's Voluntary Cleanup Program. A 30 day public comment period was held and the Site was removed from the Hazardous Sites List and issued a No Further Action on 2/10/2016.

The Broadview Service Site is located at 12250 Greenwood Avenue North, Seattle, WA. The Site had been contaminated with petroleum substances and was cleaned up during 1990 to 1995 by the property owners. 

The property was utilized for an automobile fueling and repair service station from 1923 until 1990.  There were nine underground storage tanks that stored mostly gasoline,  and small quantities of waste oil and heating oil.  The facility included dispenser islands and a building that housed three service bays with hydraulic hoists, a workshop, and office space.  Petroleum products associated with the operations of the facility were released into the soil and define the Site. 

The facility was demolished in 1990.  Petroleum contamination in soil was discovered during removal of the underground storage tanks and reported to Ecology on March 1, 1990.  Cleanup actions were performed on the property during 1990 to 1995. All structures of the facility were demolished and removed from the property including the underground storage tanks and service building.  The contaminated soil then was excavated (2,450 cubic yards) and stockpiled on the property.  The excavated soil was subsequently treated over time on the property to remove the contamination utilizing soil-vapor extraction and land farming remediation methods.  Confirmation samples collected from the excavation and also during the subsequent treatment of the excavated soil demonstrated that the soil contamination on the property were below state cleanup standards.

A three story apartment building (Daniel Apartments) was built on the property during 1995.  The building also includes a business office at street level, and a single level underground parking garage.
