Comment period extended

Ecology has received requests to extend the comment period. After considering the requests, the comment period for the Unocal Edmonds Bulk Fuel Terminal 0178 site (Site) will now close on Sunday, November 24, 2024 at 11:59 p.m.


Ecology invites you to review cleanup documents between Ecology and Union Oil Company of California (Unocal). The former Unocal Edmonds Bulk Fuel Terminal 0178 cleanup site (Site) is located near the Edmonds waterfront and consists of an Upper and Lower Yard. Unocal is a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation, and Chevron Environmental Management Company is conducting the cleanup under Ecology’s oversight.


Multiple Interim Actions (or early partial cleanups) have been completed to remove petroleum floating on groundwater and soil contaminated with arsenic and petroleum. The Upper Yard portion of the Site was cleaned up in 2003 and the cleanup of the Lower Yard portion is near completion. Remaining contamination is potentially harmful and must be addressed under Washington’s cleanup law, the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA).


The following documents are available for review: ·  


Revised Draft Feasibility Study: An evaluation of ways to clean up the Site, and a recommended preferred cleanup alternative. This includes:

  • 2017 Draft Feasibility Study
  • 2024 Draft Feasibility Study Addendum
  • Site-Specific Terrestrial Ecological Evaluation


Updated Public Participation Plan: A document explaining how people can participate in the cleanup process.
