CFAC cleanup plan expected next spring
The wheels are still turning on the Columbia Falls Aluminum Co. Superfund site cleanup.
Crews from Sandry Construction should finish removing contaminated sediments from settling ponds adjacent to the Flathead River in the coming days. The contaminant of concern is barium, according to Project Manager Ken Champagne of the Environmental Protection Agency.
The sediments, at least for now, are being stored on the main CFAC site under an agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
