‘Quiet Cove’ site cleanup in progress

The Port of Anacortes, in partnership with the state Department of Ecology and others, has begun cleanup activities as an interim action on approximately three-quarters of an acre at the Quiet Cove site adjacent to Curtis Wharf. The site once served as a bulk fuel terminal and storage facility. Work is being performed by IO Environmental and Infrastructure, Inc. with construction engineering services provided by GeoEngineers and Davido Consulting Group. The Port has completed more than $60 million in cleanups to date, with significant projects underway and on the horizon. The Quiet Cove Interim Action Cleanup is expected to cost $2.9 million.
