| Description | Proposed removal from Contaminated Sites List The Department of Ecology (Ecology) invites you to comment on our proposal to remove the Block 38 West site from the Contaminated Sites List. The site is located in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood. Ecology has determined that cleanup actions have addressed contamination under the state’s cleanup law, the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA). Investigations found petroleum hydrocarbons, benzene, naphthalenes, carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (cPAHs), and metals in soil and groundwater above state standards. Most contamination was removed during interim actions tied to property redevelopment, which included large-scale soil excavation and disposal. Remaining contamination is contained under new pavement and building structures. Site restrictions will ensure the cleanup remains protective of human health and the environment. |
