The Lower Duwamish Waterway Superfund cleanup

In 2001, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) used the federal Superfund law (also known as CERCLA) to begin its own cleanup efforts and liability assignments in the Lower Duwamish. The Washington State Department of Ecology is also involved, using its authority under the Model Toxics Control Act.
