Project Description

Cleanup in Port Gamble Bay starts in July 2015. Work will take place over two construction seasons throughout much of the bay and will conclude in January 2017. Pope Resources, LP/OPG Properties, LLC will remove approximately 70,000 cubic yards of contaminated sediment and wood waste and approximately 6,000 creosote pilings and overwater structures. Wood waste located close to shore will be dredged, and all areas contaminated by wood waste will be capped with clean material to enhance environmental recovery.
