hot Summer with high water consumption coupled with a delay in usual Fall rains;
WHEREAS, SEATTLE may also experience other types of emergency situations
that call for an augmentation of its water supply, such as a transmission pipeline break or
an episode of high turbidity in one of its reservoirs;
WHEREAS, RENTON, in the spirit of intergovernmental cooperation during such
water supply emergencies, is willing to sell an increment of water to SEATTLE when
C"� available during non-peak periods;
� WHEREAS, SEATTLE is willing to sell water to RENTON to allow RENTON's
ground water aquifer to recharge, when water is available following a water shortage
� emergency; and,
� WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into an AGREEMENT providing for the sale
� of water in an emergency from RENTON to SEATTLE, and for the subsequent sale of an
� equivalent amount of water from SEATTLE to RENTON, if necessary, to allow recharge of
� RENTON's Aquifer.

11) RENTON's Aquifer Recharqe. It is recognized that runoff into SEATTLE's surface
water storage facilities generally exceeds the storage capacity during the winter
and spring months. It may be necessary, due to RENTON supplying water to
SEATTLE, to allow RENTON's aquifer to recharge during the winter and spring
months. Following a water shortage emergency and recovery of SEATTLE's water
system impoundment's on the Cedar and Tolt Rivers, SEATTLE will sell water to
Renton. The water sale will be based on availability at the intertie locations
between SEATTLE and RENTON's systems and at such flow rate as is available
from the intertie location during the following winter or spring. The quantity of
SEATTLE's water, made available for allowing RENTON's Aquifer to recharge,
shall not exceed the quantity of water that was supplied by RENTON to SEATTLE I
during the water shortage emergency. SEATTLE will sell the water to RENTON at
SEATTLE's non-peak, old water rate charged by SEATTLE to its purveyors. This
flow rate, quantity and price is an integral part of this AGREEMENT and should not
be considered as a precedent in possible future water sales to RENTON or to other
existing or future wholesale customers.
The determination of whether water is available for RENTON, to allow RENTON's
Aquifer to recharge, shall be at the sole discretion of SEATTLE. SEATTLE may
voluntaril interru t or reduce delive of i
y p ry sa d water, providing that such interruption
or reduction is necessary or reasonable. Except in cases of emergency, and in
I � order that Renton's operations will not be unreasonably interfered with, SEATTLE
� shall give RENTON reasonable notice of such interruptions or reduction, the
0 reason therefore, and the probable duration thereof.
t�
� 12) Payment. The party supplying water shall read the meter once each month at
'� approximately thirty (30) day intervals. Payment shall be made by the party
I � receiving water as soon as possible after receipt of statement from the party
� supplying water, and in any event, not later than the tenth (10) of the second
month following the presentation of the bill.
In the event a meter shall fail to register or obviously register incorrectly, the
amount of water considered delivered through said meter shall be the amount
delivered the previous day or the last day that the meter was previously known to
be properly functioning and the total amount registered shall be pro-rated based on
the number of days multiplied times the reading used.
13) Penalties For Late Payment. The party supplying water may assess a late charge
on the party receiving water for failure to comply with the provisions in Section (11).
This charge shall be at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per year. In the event that
the party receiving water should fail to make any payment for a period of sixty (60)
days after the same becomes due, the party supplying water shall have the right to
terminate further water service until such delinquency is cured.
14) Procedure for Amendinq the Contract. Either party can request the other to
consider an amendment of the AGREEMENT. Any proposed amendments shall
be made in writing. Amendments may be made if they are mutually acceptable to
� RENTON and SEATTLE and signed by both parties.
