Lynnwood Faces Potential EPA DOE Legal Action Over Sewage Rules
Lynnwood officials warn the city faces court action from the U S Environmental Protection Agency and Washington State Ecology Department for failing to install secondary sewage treatment by 1988 under the Clean Water Act. Anacortes Bellingham and Port Angeles received similar notices. Officials say the city should not be forced to spend tens of millions without aid and that water quality is not significantly improved by immediate plant upgrades.
