vancouver water station #4 contamination

5TH + BLANDFORD ST

Vancouver Water Station #4 is located in the city of Vancouver, Washington, approximately one-half mile north of the Columbia River. Station #4 is one of several well fields used to provide drinking water to Vancouver and surrounding areas; it blends water output from other wells to supply drinking water to approximately 108,000 people. In 1988, the State Department of Health sampled the production wells at Water Station #4 under guidelines provided by the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and discovered perchloroethylene (PCE) at levels exceeding the Federal standards. The sample also showed very low levels of other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as trichloroethylene (TCE). The City took Station #4 out of service in October of 1989. Site Responsibility: This site is being addressed through federal, state and local actions.
