Railroad Avenue Cleanup - Former Pope & Talbot Wood Treating Site
The Port is working with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) to clean-up approximately 20 acres at Railroad Avenue due to Pope & Talbot creosote contamination. The site was used for wood treatment from 1912 to 1960. The Port purchased the property in 1963. The remedial investigation at the site is complete and the feasibility study is currently being prepared. For more information, please visit the DEQ's Scappoose Bay Cleanup Work and the DEQ's Environmental Cleanup Site Information database page.
