Description | Ecology invites you to review an amendment to the existing Cleanup Action Plan (CAP) for the in-water Whatcom Waterway Site (Site) on the Bellingham waterfront. The CAP amendment is part of a legal agreement between Ecology, the Port of Bellingham, the City of Bellingham, and the Department of Natural Resources. The CAP amendment: sequences design and construction activities to prioritize early cleanup at the Bellingham Shipping Terminal; documents a possible future change to the cleanup action at the head of the Whatcom Waterway to provide habitat benefit; revises the cleanup action for the Aerated Stabilization Basin, including dredged material disposal, due to changes in land use plans; adds a cleanup standard for dioxin and furan compounds due to regulatory changes. An updated Public Participation Plan for the Site will also be available for review. This removes the Public Participation Plan as an exhibit to the legal agreement and makes it a standalone document. | ||||
