πŸ”Š Listen Β· narrated by Aiden

The City of Puyallup approved a remedial excavation project at 615 and 621 14th Street Southeast on September 2, 2026. John Kim will remove 687 cubic yards of petroleum-contaminated soil for disposal at a licensed facility.

The project requires backfilling with clean fill to restore the site to pre-existing grade. Residents can submit comments on the project until September 16, 2026. The Puyallup City Council approved the SEPA document (SEPA #202603655) as the lead agency.

This remediation addresses soil contamination at a property within Puyallup city limits. The work will not affect public streets or utilities, according to the SEPA filing. The project is scheduled to begin after public comment period ends.
