The Arkema site is a former pesticide manufacturing facility located on the southwest bank of the Willamette River near the railroad bridge. The site has very high levels of DDT and breakdown products, monochlorobenzene, chrome, and perchlorate contributing to acute toxicity across the entire site in water. An early action is underway to address this "hot spot" within Portland Harbor.
