body
DEPARTMENT: Airport
ORIGINATOR: Andrew Rardin
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approved by A Boungjaktha 7/21/23
PURPOSE: This is a multi-year contract to assist in the implementation of the Department of Ecology Agreed Order (AO).
BACKGROUND: .
• This Agreement is the product of County RFQ No. 23-004BC. Landau Associates Inc was selected as the most qualified company to perform the services required by the Department of Ecology Agreed Order.
• Snohomish County Airport has been investigating environmental contamination at the Former Tect Lease Area since the early 1990’s with Remedial Investigation (RI) reports submitted to the Department of Ecology.
• On November 23, 2021, the Airport submitted a request to enter the Department of Ecology Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP). The VCP program provides oversight of straight forward typical cleanup actions.
• On March 17, 2022, Ecology provided written notice that the Airport was a Potentially Liable Party (PLP) for the environmental contamination at the former Tect lease area.
• On February 1, 2023, Ecology formally terminated Airport’s enrollment in the VCP and deemed the site too complex and an Agreed Order (AO) would be required.
• The Airport, with assistance of its attorneys, has negotiated an Agreed Order with the Department of Ecology that requires the County to undertake all actions for remedial work.
• This Agreement in the amount NTE $1,694,100, will perform the required tasks in the Agreed Order.
