Description of facility and application
GrayMar Environmental Services, LLC applied for a new solid waste facility license to receive and transfer industrial solid waste at the GrayMar Environmental facility. The facility accepts and transfers non-hazardous industrial solid waste that requires special handing such as non-putrescible dry waste and petroleum-contaminated soil. GrayMar Environmental collects this waste as part of its commercial special waste collection operations. The facility also receives special waste such as industrial cleaning and remediation waste which is transferred truck-to-truck in sealed containers. Metro does not regulate this special waste or transfer activity.
The GrayMar Environmental facility is located in a multi-unit commercial warehouse that is zoned Heavy Industrial (IH), and the proposed use is allowed outright in this zone by the City of Troutdale. The facility is operated by GrayMar Environmental Services, LLC which leases the space from Pacific NW Properties.
A copy of the license application is available at the link below. Metro will respond to the comments received during the public comment period as part of a staff report and will post the report to this page when available. If the application is approved, Metro will issue a new license authorizing the facility to conduct the solid waste activities as described above. Metro may add additional requirements to the license based on the comments received. A standard Metro license generally has a term of five years.
