  • Seattle Public Utilities Customer Review Panel C/O [email protected] P.O
    Appendix G Seattle Public Utilities Customer Review Panel c/o [email protected] P.O. Box 34018, Seattle WA 98124-4018 January 20, 2021 Mayor Jenny A. Durkan The City of Seattle 600 Fourth Avenue P.O. Box 94749 Seattle, WA 98124-4749 RE: Seattle Public Utilities Customer Review Panel Comments on the Proposed SPU Strategic Business Plan for 2021-2026 Dear Mayor Durkan: This letter presents our comments on the Proposed Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) Strategic Business Plan for 2021-2026 (Plan) in fulfillment of our duties as members of the Seattle Public Utilities Customer Review Panel (Panel) set forth in Resolution 31800. We endorse the Plan and support its adoption as presented. This letter includes a number of detailed comments regarding the Plan. Our primary messages regarding the Plan are as follows: Rates: We are pleased that the projected 6-year rate path is lower than that in the previous strategic plan: the 6-year weighted average annual rate increase across all SPU’s lines of business in the 2021-2026 period is projected to be 4.2%, down from 5.2% in the 2018-2023 SPU Strategic Business Plan. SPU’s commitment to drive rates down is admirable and should continue to be a priority. SPU provides essential basic services – water, sewer, drainage, solid waste collection and disposal. Ensuring the affordability of these services, particularly for lower income customers and smaller businesses, is a priority for the Panel. That said, the reduction in rates compared to the last plan has largely been accomplished by spending of cash reserves built up over the last three years because SPU’s capital project accomplishment rate was far less than anticipated.

  • Assessment of Current Water Quantity Conditions in the Green River Basin
    ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT WATER QUANTITY CONDITIONS IN THE GREEN RIVER BASIN Prepared for: WRIA 9 Steering Committee Funded by: A King Conservation District Grant For the WRIA 9 Forum of Local Governments King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks Washington Department of Ecology Prepared by: Northwest Hydraulics Consultants, Inc. September 2005 ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT WATER QUANTITY CONDITIONS IN THE GREEN RIVER BASIN Prepared for: WRIA 9 Steering Committee Prepared by: Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Inc. 16300 Christensen Road, Suite 350 Seattle, Washington 98188 Ph. (206) 241-6000 September 2005 Executive Summary Current water quantity conditions are assessed in the Green River Basin upstream from River Mile 23.8 (RM 23.8) where Mill Creek (Auburn), the last of the basin’s major freely-draining tributaries, enters the Green. In the context of the large Green/Duwamish sub-basins described in other reports, this study focuses on the upper Lower Green, the Middle Green, and the Upper Green River sub-watersheds. Water quantity conditions are evaluated in terms of the monthly mean and 7-day low streamflows at selected locations along the main stem channel and on major tributaries. Current conditions are further defined by the status of land use, water withdrawals, and water exports in the watersheds upstream of each location as of approximately Year 2000. This report identifies and draws upon the many prior studies which have characterized water resources and uses in the study area. An accompanying CD-ROM disk provides copies of recent digitally- published documents including the December 2000 Habitat Limiting Factors and Reconnaissance Assessment Report for the Green/Duwamish Watershed, the July 2001 Tacoma Water Habitat Conservation Plan for the Green River, and the July 2001 Central Puget Sound Regional Water Supply Outlook.

  • Capron Seattle's Turbine Pumps
    Seattle’s Turbine Pumps – No Electricity Needed Cheryl Capron - Seattle Public Utilities PNWS-AWWA Conference May 6, 2016 Overview Seattle System Topography Concept Operational Needs The Turbines Seattle System Topography “Seattle has hills, and to spare. With surface elevation of Lake Youngs at 498 feet above sea level, water incoming from Cedar River is vented by gravity into reservoirs at surface elevation 430 feet, as is the reservoir on Capitol Hill. Leo Tank on Beacon Hill is supplied by gravity, off the pipelines, at elevation 480 feet. So are reservoirs on the West Seattle hills, at elevation 440 feet. Topography (cont.) “Hydraulic turbines placed on the lines, take advantage of the kinetic energy of water between elevations. Pumps connected to these units force water to high zone towers and tanks with overflows of 530 feet above sea level, such as Queen Anne Hill.” R.H.

Being resilient offers a powerful way of addressing risks comprehensively, managing uncertainty, and taking advantage of new opportunities. For Seattle Public Utilities (SPU), resiliency is the capacity to recover in the face of sudden or gradual stressors that impact utility services and the community. SPU delivers essential water, drainage and wastewater, and solid waste services – all fundamental for public and environmental health. Seattle has been a leader in making utility investments that have multiple, long-term community benefits. After the Great Seattle Fire of 1889, the citizens of Seattle voted to create a public water system and develop the Cedar River water supply system. Seattle’s water, drainage, wastewater, and solid waste utilities have faced many challenges over the years and have evolved to improve services and reduce pollution impacts. As a community-centered utility, SPU seeks to proactively address community needs and risks to improve resiliency. In 2017, Seattle City Council requested that SPU “prepare a risk and resiliency management assessment.” SPU delivered the status report to Council on August 1, 2018.
