SUMMARY At its February 1, 2021 meeting, the City Council held a Public Hearing on a code amendment related to public noticing of land use actions (see Exhibit 1). That code amendment would have, if passed, expanded the required mailing radius for noticing surrounding property owners of land use actions (from 300 feet to 600 feet). The City Council action was not to pass the code amendment. However, in doing so, the City Council expressed an interest in using the Council committee process to evaluate alternative improvements to public noticing.

  • Fact Sheet for NPDES Permit WA0991001 Boeing Everett Cleanup Site May 11, 2015
    Fact Sheet for NPDES Permit WA0991001 Boeing Everett Cleanup Site May 11, 2015 Purpose of this fact sheet This fact sheet explains and documents the decisions the Department of Ecology (Ecology) made in drafting the proposed National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for Boeing Everett, WA. This fact sheet complies with Section 173-220-060 of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC), which requires Ecology to prepare a draft permit and accompanying fact sheet for public evaluation before issuing an NPDES permit. Ecology makes the draft permit and fact sheet available for public review and comment at least thirty (30) days before issuing the final permit. Copies of the fact sheet and draft permit for Boeing Everett (Boeing), NPDES permit WA0991001, are available for public review and comment from March 10 to April 10, 2015. For more details on preparing and filing comments about these documents, please see Appendix A – Public Involvement Information. Boeing has reviewed the draft permit and fact sheet for factual accuracy. Ecology corrected any errors or omissions regarding the facility’s location, history, discharges, or receiving water prior to publishing this draft fact sheet for public notice. After the public comment period closes, Ecology will summarize substantive comments and provide responses to them. No public comments were received during the public comment period for this permit. Summary Boeing is conducting a remedial cleanup of trichloroethylene (TCE) in groundwater to achieve hydraulic control of TCE in the plume, and to reduce to maximum extent practicable discharge to Powder Mill Creek. The remediation consists of extracting and treating contaminated groundwater through an air stripper treatment system.

    Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management 2017 Annual Report 720 80th St. SW Bldg A, Everett, WA 98203 — Phone: 425-388-5060 — Fax: 425-423-9152 Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management 2017 Annual Report A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR Hello, and thanks for taking a moment to review DEM’s annual report for 2017. As you will see, we accomplished quite a bit this year. I emphasize “we” because emergency management extends far beyond DEM’s facility and staff. It requires effort from county departments, the Health District, the Sheriff’s Office, our jurisdic- tional partners, private and non-profit organizations, faith– and community-based organizations, neighborhoods, and individu- als….it is all of us! The need for all of us to be prepared is the premise for our new “Individually Prepared, Together Resilient” campaign. Not only are we asking folks to stay informed, make a plan, and have a kit; we want them to get in- volved!!! We have ways to do that such as joining our Auxiliary Communications Service (our HAM radio volunteers), participating in Map Your Neighborhood and/or Community Emergency Response Team training, or being part of our Snohomish Emergency Response Volunteers (SERV). We are doing our part here, working diligently this year to ensure we addressed all of the issues identified during the 2016 Cascadia Rising exercise. In addition, with jurisdictions throughout the county, we assessed our collective abilities to do some very specific things, including the ability for every jurisdiction to set up an emergency operations centers, to communicate with backup capabilities like HAM radios, and to share information.
