ISSUE
Approve Amendment No. 1 for the 2021-2023 Municipal Stormwater Capacity -Building grant
agreement, in the amount of $62,000, for the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System

BACKGROUND).
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program is a requirement of the State
and includes public education and outreach, illicit discharge detection and illumination, staff training,
inspections of public and private systems, and drainage system maps. This program also funds clean-
up of illicit discharge (spill cleanup) costs that may occur in the City's right-of-way.
The 2021 Washington State Legislature provides funding each biennium for Tukwila's municipal
NPDES Program.
ANALYSIS
On February 28, 2023, Council approved a grant award for the 2021-2023 Municipal Stormwater
Capacity -Building grant in the amount of $70,000 for the NPDES program. The Department of
Ecology notified the City of Tukwila that we have been awarded an additional $62,000, which must
be approved by March 31, 2023, or the funding will be forfeited.
All funds must be used for expenses incurred from July 1, 2021- June 30, 2023. This funding can
be used to retroactively reimburse NPDES work that was already completed from July 1, 2021 to
date.
FISCAL IMPACT
Grant Amendment No. 1 is for $62,000, with no City match requirement.
RECOMMENDATION
The Council is being asked to approve Amendment No. 1 for the 2021-2023 Municipal Stormwater
Capacity -Building grant agreement, in the amount of $62,000, for the NPDES Program, and consider
this item same day at the March 20, 2023, Regular Consent Agenda Meeting.

d) Participation in applicable watershed planning effort.
5) Pollution prevention, good housekeeping, and operation and maintenance program activities, such as:
a) Inspecting and/or maintaining the MS4 infrastructure.
b) Developing and/or implementing policies, procedures, or stormwater pollution prevention plans at municipal properties or
facilities.
6) Annual reporting activities.
7) Establishing and refining stormwater utilities, including stable rate structures.
8) Water quality monitoring to implement permit requirements for a Water Cleanup Plan (TMDL). Note that any monitoring
funded by this program requires submittal of a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) that the DEPARMENT approves prior
to awarding funding for monitoring.
Monitoring, including:
a) Development of applicable QAPPs.
b) Monitoring activities, in accordance with a DEPARTMENT- approved QAPP, to meet Phase I/II permit requirements.

a) Inventory and inspection program.
b) Technical assistance and enforcement.
c) Staff training.
11) Equipment purchases that result directly in improved permit compliance. Equipment purchases must be specific to
implementing a permit requirement (such as a vactor truck) rather than general use (such as a pick-up truck). Equipment
purchases over $5,000 must be pre -approved by Ecology.
Documentation of all tasks completed is required. Documentation may include: field reports, dates and number of inspections
conducted, dates of trainings held and participant lists, number of illicit discharges investigated and removed, summaries of
planning, stormwater utility or procedural updates, annual reports, copies of approved QAPPs, summaries of structural or
source control activities, summaries of how equipment purchases have increased or improved permit compliance. Capital
construction projects, incentives or give -a -ways, grant application preparation, TAPE review for proprietary treatment systems,
or tasks that do not support Municipal Stormwater Permit implementation are not eligible expenses.
Task Goal Statement:
This task will improve water quality in the State of Washington by reducing the pollutants delivered by stormwater to lakes,
streams, and the Puget Sound by implementing measures required by Phase I and II NPDES permits.
Task Expected Outcome:
RECIPIENTS will implement measures required by Phase I and II NPDES permits.
