East Bay Redevelopment
SITE DESCRIPTION
The East Bay Redevelopment Site is generally located at 315 Jefferson Street
NE in Olympia. Portions of the site were used for timber-related industries
from the late 1880s until 1968. Previous property operations included sawmill,
planning mill, shingle mill and plywood manufacturers. From 1968 to present,
portions of the Site have been used for commercial and light industrial
activities and storage.
Historic activities at the site caused soil and groundwater contamination. Total
petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH),
polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAH),
dioxins, furans, and
metals were detected at levels above MTCA standards. The Port of Olympia
entered the Voluntary Cleanup Program in January 2007. To expedite the cleanup
for future developments and to ensure Ecology oversight, the Site was
transferred into the formal cleanup program in February 2008
