Am I in the Tacoma Smelter Plume?

  • Map:  Tacoma Smelter Plume Footprint

    Note: This map shows the general pattern of arsenic contamination, likely from the Asarco Smelter in Tacoma.  The map is based on a relatively small number of samples, given the very large areas that is affected.  The map shows an estimate of the highest arsenic levels likely to be found in an area.  However, a property in that area may have lower (or higher) amounts of arsenic.  Property-specific sampling is necessary to determine the actual amount of arsenic on a given property.
