Report: Results of Site Visit to the Wyckoff/Eagle Harbor Superfund Site on Bainbridge Island, Washington
June 9, 2026 | Report No. 26-N-0035
Why We Did This Report
We visited the Wyckoff/Eagle Harbor Superfund site on Bainbridge Island, Washington, to observe the EPA’s management of public access to the site, including contaminated beaches. Through our visit, we aimed to determine whether we should conduct additional oversight.
Summary of Findings
Prior to our visit we identified concerns about public access to the site, but during our visit we observed physical access controls and informational devices that should effectively limit public exposure to contaminants. Therefore, we do not anticipate conducting additional oversight at this time.
