SUBJECT: Summit Landsburg Road Puget Sound Energy Gas
Agreement - Authorize
MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor to sign a Gas Relocation Agreement
for $100,318.76 with Puget Sound Energy for the Rock Creek Culvert
Replacement at Summit Landsburg Road, subject to final terms and
conditions acceptable to the City Attorney and Public Works Director.
SUMMARY: In 2010, the City entered into an agreement with the National Marine
Fisheries Service and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to implement a
series of habitat conservation measures (HCM’s) in the Rock Creek Watershed in
exchange for agency support on future renewals of the City’s water right at Clark
Springs.
One of these HCM’s is the replacement of the Rock Creek Culvert at Summit
Landsburg Road. This project is intended to remove a barrier to fish passage. The
replacement project includes removal of the existing culvert, construction of a fish
passable bridge and related habitat improvements.
This work will require the relocation of gas facilities owned and operated by Puget
Sound Energy within the right-of-way of Summit Landsburg Road. PSE intends to
relocate their facilities by boring them under Rock Creek. Portions of this work will
occur in unincorporated King County, outside of the City’s franchise authority.
This agreement allows for PSE to be reimbursed by the City for portions of their
work occurring in unincorporated King County. The engineer’s opinion of probable
cost for this work is $100,318.76.
BUDGET IMPACT: This relocation work will be paid for out of the City’s Water Fund
using previously allocated funds.
SUPPORTS STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL:
Evolving Infrastructure - Connecting people and places through strategic investments in physical
and technological infrastructure.
