Subject: Re: Marrowstone Project Report/WSP Amendment/County Permits
Hi Karen,
Thanks for the update. I'm glad you're still around to answer my questions! ... and I look forward to
meeting the new people sometime. We haven't had a WUCC meeting for 18 months, so it might still be
awhile. The PUD stopped funding Mark Horton and meetings, and I don't know where the County is on
its CWSP update process now. It seems to have stalled out after the PUD got its service area approvals
from the WUCc.
DCD has promised another comment period on the Marrowstone construction permits, but they don't yet
have the required wedands analysis (parametrix). The second comment period mayor may not include a
SEPA review. We're still waiting for that decision.
The County permit file also doesn't yet include the PUD's Project Report, nor was it listed as part of the
permit requirements at the Preapp stage, which I've attached. McCauley was listed as a DOH contact, but
that was all. Nothing about planning documents or DOH approvals before the permits are approved.
Jerrod gave me a copy of the Project Report, but it is missing most of the 40 sheets showing the pipeline
route. I'll try again to get them from the PUD (before I trouble you for copies), but when asked before
Parker said they didn't keep a copy.
So I now need to understand how county permits are coordinated with DOH planning now that (per your
statement #3 below) DOH requires a WSP amendment incorporating the (still to be revised) Marrowstone
Project Report information. That was good news. I would assume that the WSP amendment must happen
before conslluction permits are issued. Can you spell out that coordination process in more detail for me
since it isn't evident yet in the County file.
By the way, the County now intends to lobby the Legislature to change water law 90.44.100 so that the
meaning of replacement well location would mean any area within two miles of the location in the original
public notice for the original well. Former PUD Commissioner now BOCC member David Sullivan
announced that lobby effort (via Assoc. of Wash. Counties) at a recent Intergovernmental Meeting with
City, Port, PUD, County. He stated that this change would allow the PUD to then use the airport well as a
Sparling "replacement", thus avoiding the issues of DOE impact review that were triggered by the PUD's
previous water right transfer request for the unpermitted well.
Thanks again.
Nancy

Greetings!
I don't know if you are aware of all the changes that have occurred in our office. Fred Brower is the new
regional engineer for Jefferson County. His phone number is 360-664-8734. Bonnie Waybright is our
new temporary assistant regional manager. Her phone number is 360-586-2510.
1. The Quimper Water System, Marrowstone Water Extension project number is #05-0417. Do you have
a copy of the project? If not, I can send it up to you. The project was reviewed and comments were
sent to the PUD on 8/4/05. To date, they have not replied to the comments. The letter is as follows:
August 4, 2005
Jim Parker
Jefferson County Public Utility District #1
Post Office Box 929
Port Hadlock, Washington 98339
Dear Mr. Parker:
Subject:
Quimper Water System, ill #05783, Jefferson County; Water System Improvements
(Marrowstone Island), ODW Project #05-0417
Thank you for submitting a project report for proposed improvements for the referenced system. I have
reviewed the report and the following items are needed prior to project approval.
1. The capacity analysis in this report includes two proposed sources (Four Corner #1 and #2) with a total
capacity of 300 gallons per minute (gpm). There are currently no water rights associated with these sources.
Jefferson County Public Utility District's intent was to transfer water rights from the Sparling wellfield to these
wells. However, it is my understanding that the Department of Ecology may not allow this. Please explain
what other options are being considered to obtain the additional source capacity. If a new source
capacity strategy is pursued, please submit a revised project report.
Regulations establishing a schedule of fees for review of planning, engineering, and construction documents
were adopted July 1, 2004 (WAC 246-290-990). An itemized bill for $377 is enclosed.
If you have any questions, please contact Bonnie Waybright at (360) 586-2510.
Sincerely,
JERROD DAVIS, P.E.
Office of Drinking Water Assistant Regional Manager

2. To the best of my knowledge, nothing has changed since June, except for the comment letter
(above). Quimper does have a project in for iron-manganese pre-design review (#05-1001). It is for well
#2, which will serve Indian Island, and if Marrowstone gets the nod, will serve Marrowstone, too. It was
submitted on 9/30/05, and has not get been reviewed or approved.
3. Amendment means that they (JPUD) will have to write a revision to the current WSP for the Quimper
area portion of the plan. They will have to change their budget, the O&M plan, the coliform plan, the
service area plan, etc. Basically everything that is effected by the project.

4. The last thing I heard (which was earlier this summer) was that JPUD is not planning on doing a
SEPA.
Let me know if you need anything else.

Subject: Marrowstone Project Report
Hi Karen,
I have a couple of info requests:
1. Can you give me an update on DOH's review/approval of the PUD's
Marrowstone Project Report?
2. Have there been any revisions to the copy that Jerrod gave me in June?
3. Jerrod's deposition for the LUD appeal states: "Project report will be an
amendment to the Water System Plan" (p.3). What
does "amendment" mean in terms of the current approval process?
4. SEPA?
Thanks,
Nancy
