Water System Interties Upgrades and Purchase of Water
ISSUE:
Should Council authorize the re-appropriation of $67,000 to the Water System Interties Upgrade
Project (425/455445) from the approved 2010 Capital Improvement Project budget - Automatic
Meter Reading Conversion Project (425/455591) for the purpose of constructing three water system
interties upgrades necessary for purchase of additional water from Seattle Public Utilities?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the re-appropriation of $67,000 to the Water System Interties Upgrade Project
(425/455445) from the approved 2010 Capital Improvement Project budget for the Automatic Meter
Reading Conversion Project (425/455591).
BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
The City has experienced an increase in water demand from population growth and from
development within the City's water service area. In response to this increase, the City has
implemented water conservation measures, provided our customers with water saving incentives,
and adopted block water rates that promote conservation. As the peak water demand continues to
grow, the City may purchase more water from Seattle, under our existing water supply contract, to
meet future demand.
The best locations to take more water from Seattle are the Fred Nelson Pump Station, Tiffany Park
Pump Station, and the Boeing/Longacres intertie. These three interties require improvements to
operate properly including, mechanical, electrical, and telemetry upgrades.
7d. ‐ Utilities Systems Division request authorization to re‐appropriate
$67,000 from the 2010 Capital Improvements Project (CIP) budget for Page 100 of 107
The City's water maintenance and operation staff will purchase the materials and install the upgrades
so that the interties can be operational in July 2010. The estimated cost for the City's installation of
the upgrades is $67,000 and the estimated cost for additional water is $33,000. The money for the
purchase of additional water will be from the approved 2010 Water Utility Operations fund (405).
The fund transfer will be reflected in the second quarter budget adjustment process.
The Water Utility requests Council's approval to re-appropriate $67,000 from the approved 2010
Capital Improvement Project budget for the Automatic Meter Reading Conversion Project
(425/455591) to the Water System Interties Upgrade Project (425/455445).
CONCLUSION:
The upgrades to the existing interties with Seattle Public Utilities are needed to make the interties
operate properly and to allow the City to monitor flow through the interties. Use of the interties and
purchase of additional water will help the City to meet peak demand in the future.
