Subject: ABC Recycling Bulk Storage Facility
Request a full environmental review. Past SEPA and EIS documents do not take into consideration the activity of the metal storage, nor its capacity for the generation of dangerous air, water and noise pollution. As well, the possible addition of shredded metal and any associated residue, should be taken into consideration at this time.
Statement: A.B.C Recycling Operations Corp, Andy Anthony, 735 Cornwall Ave Bellingham, WA 98225-5017, is, at the request of the State of Washington Department of Ecology, voluntarily seeking coverage under the Washington State Department of Ecology’s NPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges Associated with Industrial Activities.
The industrial site, known as ABC Recycling Bulk Storage Facility, is located at 735 Cornwall Avenue in Bellingham. Operations started on 6/1/2022. Industrial activities include management and storage of recyclable metal material prior to shipment (categorized as: Recyclable Material Merchant Wholesalers, SCRAP AND WASTE MATERIALS). Stormwater from the site discharges to Port of Bellingham Aerated Stabilization Basin (currently maintained in zero-discharge state) and does not reach the Whatcom Waterway.
Any persons desiring to present their views to the Washington State Department of Ecology concerning this application may notify Ecology in writing within 30 days of the last date of publication of this notice. Comments may be submitted to:
