Sewer district notifies Edmonds schools of intent to sue
EDMONDS — Last week, Olympic View Sewer District gave its notice of intent to sue Edmonds School District over what it says are long-standing water pollution issues at Madrona K-8 School.
The letter of intent, sent on May 20 to Edmonds School District Superintendent Dr. Rebecca Miner, states the school district is failing to comply with the Safe Drinking Water Act and Washington State’s Underground Injection Control well program.
Curtis Campbell, director of communications for the school district, said in an email on Tuesday the district disagrees with many of the allegations in the notice, including the assertion the district isn’t in compliance with clean water standards.
The notice gives the school district 60 days before Olympic View files a suit over toxic chemicals the sewer district claims threaten a drinking water aquifer.
