North Marina West EndA PUGET SOUND INITIATIVE site – Reaching the goal of a healthy, sustainable Puget Sound now and forever SITE DESCRIPTIONThe Port of Everett’s North Marina West End Site has been used for commercial, marine, and general industrial purposes since the early 1900s. These uses included trucking and marine construction activities such as welding, sandblasting, creosote log storage, and painting. In addition, there were a number of storage tanks for diesel fuel, gasoline, and oil. Chemicals such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), petroleum hydrocarbons, and five metals have been found to exceed Model Toxic Control Act (MTCA) cleanup levels in soil. Vinyl chloride, petroleum hydrocarbons, and two metals exceed MTCA cleanup levels in groundwater. One PAH (acenaphthene) exceeds its respective Sediment Quality Standard (SQS) in sediment. The Port has completed significant investigation and partial cleanup of this Site as part of a larger North Marina Redevelopment project known as Port Gardner Wharf. Ecology is working with the Port to complete this investigation and cleanup.
