Weekly How often must water use data be reported to Ecology? Annually (by January 1) What volume should be reported? Total Monthly and Annual Volumes What rate should be reported? Annual Peak Rate of Withdrawal (gpm) Provisions This authorization is subject to the water right holder’s compliance with the provisions below and the requirements specified in the following plans, including future revisions: • Revised Pleasant Harbor Groundwater Monitoring Plan, prepared by Subsurface Group, LLC, on February 22, 2010. • Pleasant Harbor Neighborhood Water Supply Plan for Pleasant Harbor Marina and Golf Resort dated June 4, 2018. • Water Quality Monitoring Plan for Pleasant Harbor Marina and Resort dated January 8, 2018. The Revised Pleasant Harbor Groundwater Monitoring Plan will remain in effect at least through full build-out of the project, after which the requirements may be modified by the Department of Ecology based on monitoring results. Project Withdrawal Limits Groundwater withdrawals under all water rights for this project shall not exceed an instantaneous rate of 300 gallons per minute and a total annual quantity of 254 acre-feet per year. Wells, Well Logs and Well Construction Standards All wells constructed in the state shall meet the construction requirements of WAC 173-160 titled “Minimum Standards for the Construction and Maintenance of Wells” and RCW 18.104 titled “Water Well Construction”. Any well which is unusable, abandoned, or whose use has been permanently discontinued, or which is in such disrepair that its continued use is impractical or is an environmental, safety or public health hazard shall be decommissioned. • Water supply wells must be constructed according to the water well regulations in WAC 173- 160-101 thru 390 by a licensed water well driller. Exhibit 20 SUPERSEDING WATER RIGHT PERMIT 3 G2-30436 • Resource protection wells (e.g., future monitoring wells MW7 & MW8) must be constructed according to the sealing requirements specified in WAC 173-160-450 or -451, by a licensed resource protection well driller. • Any additional vibrating wire piezometers must be constructed according to WAC 173-160-457 and -458. All wells shall be tagged with a Department of Ecology unique well identification number. If you have an existing well and it does not have a tag, please contact the well-drilling coordinator at the regional Department of Ecology office issuing this decision. These tags shall remain attached to the wells. Installation and maintenance of access ports, as described in WAC 173-160-291(3), is required. Measurements, Monitoring, Metering and Reporting An approved measuring device must be installed and maintained for each of the sources identified by this water right in accordance with Chapter 173-173 WAC, "Requirements for Measuring and Reporting Water Use, which describes the requirements for data accuracy, device installation and operation, and information reporting. It also allows a water user to petition the Department of Ecology for modifications to some of the requirements. Monthly and annual withdrawals from each production well shall be reported annually, by January 31, via the Internet. To set up an Internet reporting account, contact the Southwest Regional Office Water Resources Program. Datalogger Installation and Downloading Requirements Dataloggers recording groundwater pressure must be maintained at all vibrating wire piezometers and monitoring wells. Dataloggers measuring both groundwater pressure and electrical conductivity must be maintained at Monitoring Wells MW-2, MW-4, MW-5, MW-7, and MW-8. Groundwater pressure and electrical conductivity measurements shall be recorded every 0.5 hour. All dataloggers must be checked for battery life, calibration and other recommendations by the manufacture. All pressure transducers that are non-vented must also be corrected for barometric pressure and drift (based on manual static water level readings). During the construction period (generally, April 1 to November 1), data must be downloaded every two months. During the non-construction period (generally, November 1 to April 1), data must be downloaded every three months. Once water is in use for domestic or irrigation supply, dataloggers must be downloaded and water samples collected quarterly until water is in full beneficial use. At that time, the requirements will be adjusted based on the monitoring results. Future Water Supply Wells Future water supply wells under this permit must be completed in the Sea Level Aquifer and a minimum 72-hour constant-rate aquifer test must be conducted on each well. Water quality samples for chloride and conductivity must be collected from the pumping well, existing monitoring wells MW-2, MW-4, and MW-5, and future monitoring wells, MW-7 and MW-8, and the approved coastal domestic wells. Samples must be sent to a state-accredited laboratory for analysis. The pumping well must be sampled three times during the aquifer test: 1) after pumping two well volumes, 2) midway through pumping (approximately 36 hours), and 3) near the conclusion of pumping. The Exhibit 20 SUPERSEDING WATER RIGHT PERMIT 4 G2-30436 pumping well must be sampled within the last 15 minutes of the aquifer test in accordance with the Washington State Department of Health Water System Manual guidelines. The monitoring wells and coastal domestic wells must be sampled prior to the test and in the final hours of the test before the pumping well is shut off. The five monitoring wells must be continuously monitored for conductivity during testing. Additional aquifer testing procedures are outlined in the Washington State Department of Ecology publication, Water Resources Program Guidance: Aquifer Test Procedures, October 2020, Publication 20-11-093 (https://apps.ecology.wa.gov/publications/documents/2011093.pdf). Contact the Washington State Department of Health Water System Manual for additional water quality sampling and aquifer testing requirements. Aquifer test and water quality sampling results shall be submitted to the Department of Ecology’s Southwest Regional Office promptly upon completion of the aquifer test. Chloride Monitoring Chloride concentrations and conductivity shall be sampled quarterly in each water supply well during the months of March, June, September, and December. Quarterly sampling will be required for at least three years following full build-out of the project after which the monitoring frequency may be modified by the Department of Ecology based on the results. At least two seaward coastal domestic wells approved by Ecology shall be sampled for chloride concentrations and conductivity, twice a year, during the months of April and August, or alternatively, in March and September to be in sync with other sampling events. Monitoring shall continue at least through full build-out. The Beattie well on Jefferson County Parcel No. 502153018, and the Vann/Brakeman well (original Sam Boling well) on Parcel No. 502154001 are currently approved for this purpose. If an approved well becomes unavailable or is otherwise found to be unsuitable for monitoring, the Department of Ecology must be promptly notified and another coastal well substituted with the approval of the Department to ensure that at least two wells are continuously monitored. All monitoring wells with electrical conductivity meters (MW-2, MW-4, MW-5, MW-7 & MW-8) must be sampled for chloride and conductivity during the month of September each year. Stagnant water from any inactive well must be purged prior to sampling for chloride and conductivity. Approximately two well volumes or stable conductivity indicate adequate purging. All water quality samples shall be analyzed by a state-accredited laboratory and the laboratory results submitted to the Department of Ecology’s Southwest Regional Office by February 28 of the year following the sampling events. Sampling of nitrates, total hardness (CaCO3), or other water quality monitoring is also recommended to help identify sources of chlorides other than seawater intrusion. This data will assist Ecology in determining if actions are necessary to prevent a progressive increase in chloride concentrations above 100 mg/l, an indicator of seawater intrusion. Preventative actions may Exhibit 20 SUPERSEDING WATER RIGHT PERMIT 5 G2-30436 include reducing the instantaneous pumping rate, reducing the annual volume pumped, scheduling pumping to coincide with low tides, and/or raising the pump intake. All water levels and sampling of chloride and other water quality data must be closely monitored to detect increasing trends in chlorides or declining static water levels. Any progressive static water level declines or increasing trends in chloride concentrations that could lead to impairment of coastal domestic wells must immediately be reported to Ecology. Additional studies or preventative actions as described above may be required. Static Water Level Measurements In conjunction with chloride and electrical conductivity monitoring, static water levels shall be measured quarterly in each production well, the approved coastal monitoring wells, MW-2, MW-4, MW-5, MW-6, MW-7, and MW-8 using a consistent methodology. Data shall be submitted annually, by February 28, to the Department of Ecology’s Southwest Regional Office. Static water level data shall be submitted in digital format and shall include the following elements: • Unique Well ID Number • Measurement date and time • Measurement method (air line, electric tape, pressure transducer, etc.) • Measurement accuracy (to nearest foot, tenth of foot, etc.) • Description of the measuring point (top of casing, sounding tube, etc.) • Measuring point elevation above or below land surface to the nearest 0.1 foot • Land surface elevation at the well head to the nearest foot. • Static water level below measuring point to the nearest 0.1 foot. • All manual static water levels and pressure transducer readings must be corrected and converted to elevation in feet above NAVD88. If nearby pumping wells interfere with monitoring well water levels, pumps may need to be shut off for as long as four hours to allow monitoring wells to recover to static conditions.

Groundwater Monitoring Annual Reports An annual report summarizing the status of development and all groundwater monitoring results shall be prepared, reviewed, and stamped by a licensed hydrogeologist, and the report submitted to the Department of Ecology’s Southwest Regional Office Water Resources Program by February 28, each year. Summaries must include charts and tables of all groundwater pressure (water level elevations from vibrating wire piezometers and monitoring wells’ data), electrical conductivity/salinity levels, along with all quarterly manual static water levels and chloride sampling results including the coastal domestic wells. The report must be produced in hard copy and digital format and must present all cumulative data and an analysis of trends or problems. The report must also include a revised map showing the locations of the water supply wells, cased monitoring wells, vibrating wire piezometers and two approved coastal domestic wells. Antidegradation Policy Under WAC 173-200-030, existing and future beneficial uses shall be maintained and protected and degradation of groundwater quality that would interfere with or become injurious to beneficial uses shall not be allowed. Safe Sustainable Yield Withdrawals may be regulated prior to full build-out if necessary to prevent degradation of water quality or a long-term progressive decline in static water levels that would be injurious to senior water users. Additional monitoring and groundwater studies may be required to demonstrate safe sustainable yield prior to issuance of a final certificate of water right. Department of Health Requirements Prior to any new construction or alterations of a public water supply system, the State Board of Health rules require public water supply owners to obtain written approval from the Office of Drinking Water of the Washington State Department of Health. Please contact the Office of Drinking Water at Southwest Drinking Water Operations, 243 Israel Road S.E., PO Box 47823, Tumwater, WA 98504-7823, (360) 236- 3030. Exhibit 20 SUPERSEDING WATER RIGHT PERMIT 7 G2-30436 Aquifer test results submitted to the Department of Health for source approval of Well 1 (ACM513) shall also be submitted to Department of Ecology’s Southwest Regional Office Water Resources Program. Water Use Efficiency The water right holder is required to maintain efficient water delivery systems and use of up‐to‐date water conservation practices consistent with RCW 90.03.005. Proof of Appropriation The water right holder shall file the notice of Proof of Appropriation of water (under which the certificate of water right is issued) when the permanent distribution system has been constructed and the quantity of water required by the project has been put to full beneficial use.
