SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with Section 122(i) of the
Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act (CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. 9622(i), EPA is
providing notice of a proposed
administrative settlement for payment
of response costs at the Bremerton Auto
Wrecking/Gorst Creek Landfill Site in
Port Orchard, Washington with the
following settlement parties: The United
States Department of the Navy and the
ST Trust. The Bremerton Auto
Wrecking/Gorst Creek Landfill Site is a
triangular shaped parcel of
approximately 5.7 acres located within
a ravine through which Gorst Creek
flows. To create the landfill Gorst Creek
was channeled through a 24-inch steel
culvert placed at the bottom of the
ravine. From 1968 until 1989, waste was
disposed in the creek ravine on top of
the culvert. The weight of the waste has
crushed the culvert in at least two
locations and diminished flow capacity.
The diminished flow capacity causes
Gorst Creek to impound upstream of the
landfill, resulting in water seeping
through and flowing over the surface of
the landfill. During periods of heavy
precipitation erosion of the landfill
disperses waste material and debris into
the downstream reaches of Gorst Creek.
The landfill is estimated to contain
approximately 150,000 cubic yards of
waste.
The Agency is proposing to enter into
an administrative agreement with the
settling parties to fund a response action
to remove and properly dispose of waste
disposed in the creek ravine. Following

waste removal, the creek ravine will be
restored to provide proper hydrological
and ecological functions, including
restoration of fish habitat and migration.
The response action is expected to take
approximately one-year and will cost an
estimated $27,605,000. The proposed
settlement will provide the settling
parties with a release of liability subject
to certain rights reserved by the Agency.
