On February 28, 2013, EPA released the Proposed Plan for the cleanup of the Duwamish River. Over the next 105 days, DRCC/TAG, in partnership with EPA and the community, held five (5) public hearings and 16 unconventional public meetings; presented 25 times in the community; and held five (5) other events. And the results were staggering:
1300 attended public hearings, public meetings, and more.
Over 2300 comments in 10 different languages were collected and submitted!
Taking into account these comments, EPA issued its Final Cleanup Plan in December 2014.
