In a letter dated June 18, 2012 that is posted on Geotracker, the Water Board outlines tasks that will need to be completed by their staff to "recover costs of investigation and cleanup of unregulated discharges adversely affecting or threatening to affect the state's waters". One of the tasks that they outline is to "initiate public participation or risk assessment findings and draft (a) remedial action plan." In addition they plan to "Encourage public involvement in remediation issues at critical points." and to conduct site inspections.

AuthorWe live here in West Eureka have been victims of Evergreen Pulp's pollution. Now Freshwater Pulp wants to start it up again. We would like to know your thoughts and experiences with this. Now that Freshwater is not going to reopen, we are concerned about the massive quantity of contaminants that have been dumped on the site. These sites usually leak into adjacent areas and people live 750 yards from the point of maximum impact, the most polluted point, a Hot spot. We are also concerned that the Marina center site be properly cleaned up and will continue to discuss other local issues here. However, we will not let the mill issue rest until we actually see the smokestacks go down and the site is cleaned up. Archives
