King County Metro Transit S Annex
Status
Ecology issued a Site No Further Action opinion letter for this site (Voluntary Cleanup Program project NW3301) on February 13, 2024.
Site Background
The property is located in an industrial-zoned area in the City of Tukwila and was farmland prior to initiation of development by Metro Transit in 1985. The South Facilities area of the property on the west includes the operations building and the Annex area of the property on the east consists of bus parking lots, open storage, and a training yard. During removal of three underground storage tanks (USTs) from the property in 1997, petroleum-contaminated soil and groundwater was encountered.
Site Cleanup In Process
Soil and groundwater samples collected from September 2019 through November 2022 confirmed compliance with Model Toxics Control Act cleanup levels, the absence of soil-vapor and surface-water contaminant exposure pathways, and successful completion of the Site cleanup.
Contaminants Of Concern
Gasoline-, diesel-, and oil-range petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH-G, TPH-D, and TPH-O), and benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (BTEX) into the Soil and Groundwater.
Voluntary Cleanup Program
This site was cleaned up under our Voluntary Cleanup Program, which provides technical help to owners of contaminated sites.
Voluntary Cleanup Program customers pay fees to cover our costs for technical help and reviewing cleanup reports. Sites in this program must meet the same cleanup standards as the sites Ecology manages under legal orders.
