Short Description

The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) invited public comment on the draft permit for the Bremerton Naval Complex′s mixed waste storage facility (MWSF) during a comment period from April 28 to June 12, 2006. The MWSF is intended for storage of mixed wastes for more than 90 days. The MWSF stores the wastes until they are shipped off-site for final treatment, if necessary, and disposal. The kinds of wastes stored at the MWSF are paint chips, protective coating, and other small solids resulting from work on nuclear-powered naval vessels.

This responsiveness summary addresses all public comments Ecology received during the public comment period. Ecology received three comments on the proposed draft permit.
