Description The Department of Ecology (Ecology) invites you to comment on our proposal to remove the Anacortes Former Water Treatment Plant from the Contaminated Sites List. The site is located next to the Skagit River in Mount Vernon and is next to the current water treatment plant, which provides drinking water for the City of Anacortes and the surrounding communities.
Ecology has determined that no further action is needed to clean up contamination at the site under the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA), the state’s cleanup law. Ecology has also determined that no post-cleanup controls or monitoring are necessary under MTCA. There are two legal agreements currently in place. One will be satisfied at the end of this comment period (Agreed Order),
and the other will be dismissed in court in the future (Consent Decree). Ecology Bellingham Field Office
