King County’s Solid Waste Division issued a final Environmental Impact Statement for the Cedar Hills Regional Landfill 2020 site development plan and facilities relocation on March 22, 2022, which initiates an appeal period to enable the public to review and submit formal appeals on the adequacy of the document by April 8, 2022. The Solid Waste Division has identified Cedar Hills South as the preferred alternative for the landfill support facilities site as that alternative best accomplishes the Division’s purpose and needs. The Solid Waste Division has not identified a preferred alternative for the landfill site development. The County will make a decision on the location of the site development and the location of the landfill support facilities based upon all of the information available, including the FEIS and non-environmental factors such as cost, policy considerations and benefits associated with each of the options.
The FEIS and additional background on the project is available for review electronically on the project webpage. Anyone wishing to appeal the adequacy of the FEIS must file a Notice of Appeal by April 8, 2022, to:
King County Solid Waste Division
Pat D. McLaughlin, SEPA Responsible Official
ATTN: Division Director’s Office
201 South Jackson Street, Suite 5701
Seattle, WA 98104-3855
An appeal fee of $250 payable to “King County Treasurer” by check or money order must accompany the appeal.
