Current City policy requires approval by the appropriate Committee before applying for grants. DISCUSSION The "Green the Green" grant is designed to fund projects that will "achieve forested riparian buffers adjacent to the banks of the Green/Duwamish River, Soos Creek and Newaukurn Creek (and their tributaries)." This grant opportunity is in line with WRIA 9's Salmon Habitat Plan and Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE) findings of "unhealthy temperature and oxygen conditions (in portions of these water bodies) that cause them to fail to meet Washington State water quality standards. The DOE study determined that the "Green River and its tributaries need tree shade to keep their waters from over-warming during the late summer and early fall". A total of $250,000 is available through this program with a $50,000 minimum and $100,000 maximum grant award. Public Works will lead the application process with support from Parks and the Department of Community Development. We are in the process of identifying the best site(s) and devising a project that will score highly among the field of applications. FISCAL IMPACT Matching funds are not required, however, applications will receive additional points for providing sponsor match or documenting the amount of additional funding gained due to using this funding as a match. It is anticipated that up to $10,000 of Stormwater Funds may be offered as a City match in the grant application in order to increase the likelihood of being awarded a grant. RECOMMENDATION Utilities Committee approval to submit a grant application to the King County Flood Control District Cooperative Watershed Management's "Green the Green" Grant Program. Attachment: Green the Green Grant Announcement wApw eng\projects\a- or projects\wria 9 fla (00-dr04)\info memo uc grant applications 2015 - mp-rrt-gi.docx "Green the Green" Grant funding is available for your riparian revegetation project within the Green /Duwamish and Central Puget Sound Watershed (WRIA 9). A total of $250,000 is available, with a $50,000 minimum and $100,000 maximum grant award. Funding is provided through the King County Flood Control District Cooperative Watershed Management Grant Program. The WRIA 9 Salmon Habitat Plan promotes planting riparian areas to improve habitat functions for salmon, in part because salmonids are extremely sensitive to changes in water temperature. Washington State Department of Ecology recently determined through studies that portions of the Green River, and Newaukum and Soos Creeks exhibit unhealthy temperature and oxygen conditions that cause them to fail to meet Washington State water quality standards. According to the study, the Green River and its tributaries need tree shade to keep their waters from over - warming during the late summer and early fall. The WRIA 9 Watershed Ecosystem Forum is eager to assist local governments, special purpose districts, schools, tribes, and non - governmental organizations in funding projects that help improve conditions for salmon through tree planting in the Green /Duwamish and Central Puget Sound watershed. Grant Applications are due by 5 pm on September 18, 2015. Watershed staff is available to answer your questions at karen.bergeron cDkingcounty.gov or by telephone at 206.477.4641. �.i. •.

WRIA 9 "Green the Greed' Grant Announcement July 2015 City of Tukwila Jim Haggerton, Mayor TO: Mayor Haggerton Utilities Committee FROM: Bob Giberson, Public Works Director ZWJ BY: Mike Cusick, PE, Senior Program Manager DATE: August 21, 2015 SUBJECT: CBD Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project No. 91140203 Emergency Sewer Repair at 1227 Andover Park East ISSUE Update Utilities Committee on an emergency sewer repair at 1227 Andover Park East. BACKGROUND City staff was in the process of cleaning the sanitary sewer in Andover Park East in preparation for the 2015/2016 CBD Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project. The jet head used for cleaning became obstructed and medium to large gravel debris was present within the sewer system, indicating a possible break in the sewer main. The City contracted with Bravo Environmental to video the sewer line. During the videoing their camera became lodged in a hole in the bottom of the pipe and could not be removed. It was determined that it was necessary to excavate the sewer main in order to remove the camera and determine the extent of the damage to the sewer main as an emergency situation. DISCUSSION R.L. Alia (Alia) was hired to perform the necessary emergency excavation on a time and materials basis. Bravo Environmental's camera was extracted and the repair of the pipe is the next step. The extent of the pipe repair will be determined after the damaged section is exposed for visual inspection. FISCAL IMPACT The repair work being completed by Alia is being performed under force account to track all actual costs. This work will be paid for using 2015/2016 CBD Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project funds. Information only at this time. An emergency declaration Resolution will be brought back to a future Utilities Committee meeting.
