Dupont Corporate Park Site

Photo:  Dupont Corporate Park SiteSITE DESCRIPTION

The DuPont Corporate Park is located at 2800 Center Drive N. and consists of four parcels of land.  The site was once used as storage for the DuPont Works explosives plant and as a training area for Fort Lewis.  The site was also affected by emissions from the former Tacoma Asarco Smelter and by lead paint from old buildings.  As a result, some of the soil was polluted with lead—a toxic metal.
 
Before 2006, the DuPont Corporate Park site was part of the neighboring Intel property. In 1995, Weyerhaeuser cleaned up the site to meet state industrial cleanup standards and sold it.  However, because industrial cleanup standards are not as stringent as unrestricted land use standards*, a restrictive covenant was placed on the property deed. 
 
The DuPont Corporate Park site has now been cleaned up to meet state cleanup standards for unrestricted land use.  Ecology proposes to remove DuPont Corporate Park L.L.C. from the restrictive covenant that covers this site and the Intel property.  The restrictive covenant will remain on the Intel property deed.
 
 
* Land cleaned up to the unrestricted land use standard may be used for commercial and residential developments.
