BACKGROUND The City is currently working on the design phase of the project, which will expand salmon habitat, including habitat for ESA -listed Chinook salmon. This project is a priority project listed in the WRIA 9 Salmon Habitat Plan. As a recognized local entity, WRIA 9 has recommended to the RCO's Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB) that the Riverton Creek Fiapgate Removal Project receive construction grant funds. DISCUSSION The Riverton Creek Flapgate Removal Project is currently estimated to cost approximately $996,430, including design and construction. To date, the SRFI3 has granted $551,070 (PSAR grant #16-1892) for this project, but these funds are on hold until the State Legislature approves the 2017-2019 biennial budget, at which point the grant contract will be routed through City Council for approval. This second grant application, for $295,895 (SRFB grant #17-1048), requires the applicant submit an Application Authorization Form in the form of a City Resolution, FISCAL IMPACT The two grants total $846,965 and both require a 15% City match, or $149,465. There is currently only $868,000 budgeted for the Riverton Creek Flap Gate Removal project with $551,070 in grant funding and $318,000 in Surface Water funds. The entire project budget will have to be increased to the estimated $996,430, but with the second SRFB grant, the surface water funding will be sufficient at $318,000.
