WHEREAS, Jefferson County recognizes the need to address aging or failing individual onsite
sewage treatment systems in the Hood Canal watershed; in other areas of Jefferson, Kitsap and Mason
Counties; and on the Port Gamble S'Klallam and Skokomish Tribal Reservations; and
WHEREAS, eliminating failing individual onsite sewage treatment systems in these areas has been
identified as necessary to protect and improve water quality; and

burden on individual homeowners, especially homeowners with low or fixed incomes, and often prevents
them from addressing the problem; and
WHEREAS, the Hood Canal Coordinating Council and ShoreBank Enterprise Cascadia have
developed a program to provide low interest loans for onsite sewage treatment system repair or replacement;
and
WHEREAS, ShoreBank Enterprise Cascadia has a demonstrated record of success in administering
financial assistance programs in rural areas ofthe Pacific Northwest that achieve environmental benefits; and
WHEREAS, ShoreBank Enterprise Cascadia has secured a significant amount of private foundation
funding for this new program, to be matched with an equivalent amount of public funding from the
Washington State Legislature, through the Washington Department of Ecology;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that Jefferson County approves this program as one of
the five (5) chartering government members ofthe Hood Canal Coordinating Council, and agrees to use the
program, and participate in it as described in the Interlocal Agreement between Jefferson, Kitsap and Mason
Counties and Port Gamble S 'Klallam and Skokomish Tribes and in its associated Program Guidelines.

Jay L. Watson, PhD
Executive Director
Thank you.
My question is whether you would like HCCC and/or ShoreBank staffto present this issue to you at
your BaCC Meeting, or if you feel that is unnecessary and you are familiar enough with this issue to
approve it without us there. Please let me know your preference, we will accommodate whatever is
desired.
I have also provided draft resolution language to all 5 governments so that forthcoming approval
resolutions will be similar (this was requested at the March 21 HCCC Board meeting.)
I have worked with your BaCC administrative staff to get the Interlocal Agreement and Program
Guidelines for the ShoreBank septic loan program on the April 3 Bacc meeting agenda for your
approval.
