EPA Superfund Program: ANACONDA ALUMINUM CO COLUMBIA FALLS REDUCTION PLANT, COLUMBIA FALLS, MT
“The Anaconda Aluminum Co Columbia Falls Reduction Plant, also known as Columbia Falls Aluminum Company Plant, is located two miles northeast of Columbia Falls, Mont. It covers approximately 960 acres north of the Flathead River, a fishery that includes the federally designated threatened bull trout and the federally sensitive westslope cutthroat trout. EPA’s initial site evaluation indicates that ground water and surface water at the site contain various contaminants of concern, including cyanide, fluoride, and various metals.”
