For the Reporter

The 1990s cleanup of contaminated soil and groundwater at the former Auburn Sewer Lagoons site in Auburn continues to protect public health and the environment, according to a periodic review by the Department of Ecology.

The property consists of four parcels at the intersection of B Street Northwest and 30th Street Northwest. The property, previously occupied by a five sewage lagoon cells, is occupied by a warehouse complex.

Ecology seeks public comment on the review through April 6.

Ecology reviews sites that have undergone cleanup if the cleanup included a special condition that must be maintained on the property. The reviews occur every five years.
