Waste 2 Resources Program

Site Hazard Assessment Grants

Ecology maintains a list of all sites in the state that are presumed contaminated based on a short review called an "initial investigation." The next step, called the "site hazard assessment" (SHA), is a more intensive confirmation of the type and level of contaminants present. The results of the site hazard assessment are used by Ecology to rank the sites by order of hazard. The allows Ecology to set program priorities.

To receive an SHA grant, the applicant must be a local health department or district that is not suspected to have contributed to the release of a hazardous substance at the sites being assessed and no conflict of interest exists.  Applications for SHA grants may be submitted at any time.
