The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has delayed cleanup of a toxic site on the Tulalip Reservation in Washington.
Work stopped when crews noticed an odor at the World War II-era chemical weapons storage and training site. That prompted the Army Corps to draft a new plan that will cost twice as much, from $2 million to $4 million.
The 2,000-acre is located near Quil Ceda Village, the tribe's retail center.
