Background Summary: DOE will be hiring a consultant (Geomatrix) to perform a "phase 1" water rights review. Initially the consultant will be establishing the senior water right applications that would be considered in the "same source of supply" as the City's application. The initial investigation identified 40 applications in WRIAs 9 and 10 with priority dates senior to the City's application. Some of the applications are clearly not in continuity with the City's application, but those who may be will be analyzed considering: hydraulic continuity; sharing of common recharge areas; sharing of common flow regimes; and isolation from other sources by effective barriers to hydraulic flows. A second activity the City has requested is for Geomatrix to review the City proposed, mitigation alternatives for fatal flaws. Agreement: The anticipated cost for this agreement is $60,000 A budget adjustment of $60,000 from the 430.00.534.100.41 water fund may be required this year to fund this agreement.

The City of Auburn is applying for an additional water right for municipal water supply use. The City of Auburn has submitted one application for a new groundwater right, G1-28404, requesting 12,500 gallons per minute (gpm) of instantaneous use, with an annual requested quantity of 13,443 acre-feet per year. Ecology's consultant, Geomatrix, will be tasked to complete the water -right processing Phase I work establishing senior water right applications that would be considered in the `same source of supply' as the City's application, thus requiring processing in accordance with RCW 90.03.265. In conducting this determination, Geomatrix will define the source of water that the City of Auburn proposes using for municipal water supply and the universe of applications requiring processing based on the following considerations: • Hydraulic continuity between points of withdrawal; • Sharing of a common recharge (catchment) area; • Sharing of a common flow regime; and • Isolation from other sources by the presence of effective barriers to hydraulic flow.
