City Parcel

Click on map/photo for larger view SITE DESCRIPTION

The City Parcel site is located at 708 N. Cook Street in Spokane, Spokane County, Washington.  Transformer repair and recycling operations took place on-site until 1980 when it became a parcel delivery service.  Now, most business activities take place at a location on Trent Avenue.  However, past business practices repairing and recycling transformers resulted in PCB contamination at the site.
 
PCB contamination is found inside the building in dry wells, an underground storage tank, and drain lines.  Studies show the groundwater is not impacted, but there is extensive contamination in soil from 0 to 12 inches below the ground surface.  Contaminated soil is located in the gravel parking area on the north side of the building and in the alleyway east of the property. 
 
The alleyway is a City of Spokane right-of-way.  Ecology asked the City to install a temporary gravel cover over the contaminated soil in the alleyway.  The City covered the soil with gravel in 2003.
