Public comments on several major projects that affect our rural area must be submitted soon. Comments on Lakeside Industries' proposed Asphalt Plant on its SR 169 property are to be submitted to King County DPER no later than December 31, 2017. Comments on Reserve Silica Corporation's Remedial Investigation Report for its site clean up under the State Model Toxics Control Act are to be submitted to the Department of Ecology early in January 2018. Specific information, including links to agency reports and applications, is available on this website in the Current Issues box under Asphalt Plant and Reserve Silica. The GMVUAC encourages members of the public who have a particular concern regarding either of these projects to review the available information and submit comments to the proper agency.
