The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) listed the Lower Duwamish River – a five-mile stretch through South Seattle – as a federal Superfund site in 2001. The Superfund List is a roster of the most contaminated sites in the country. EPA’s Proposed Cleanup Plan is currently available for public review and comment. Get involved, and help ensure that the Duwamish will be A River for All!
