RE: 2024 Supplemental Capital Budget Request

Dear Mr. Schumacher:

The Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (WDFW) 2024 Supplemental Capital Budget Request is

attached. This supplemental budget request reflects the Department’s continued dedication to

preserving healthy fish and wildlife populations, sustainable outdoor experiences, supporting a

strong economy and social values, and pursuing operational excellence. This request represents

emergent critical needs requiring funding in the supplemental budget.

All projects submitted in this Supplemental are modifications of larger projects submitted in the

23-25 Capital Budget request and are covered in the previously submitted 10-year plan, and have

also been reviewed by DAHP as part of the 23-25 submittal. The supplemental projects represent

the most critical components of our previous request.

Domestic Water Repairs

The general category of Statewide Domestic Water Repairs had 2 systems that are currently not

compliant with Department of Health standards for a group water system. We are requesting

$275,000 to repair only the most urgent needs of the Department. Remaining projects will be

requested in the 25-27 biennium.

Ringold Hatchery Pre-Design

The FY23-25 capital budget included a request for design and construction of new ponds for the

RIngold hatchery which did not receive funding. There are additional projects at that location in

the 10-year plan. The hatchery has experienced an emergent biological issue that is threatening

fish health and will be requiring extensive design changes moving forward. The request of

$200,000 in the 2024 supplemental is to perform a pre-design for all future construction phases

that incorporates the necessary water treatment and pond construction to reduce risk to fish.

Sekiu Boating Access Acquisition

The Sekiu access is a popular fishing launch in the Strait. It is privately owned and up for sale.

WDFW has been working with the owners for years to secure the purchasing rights. Sekiu Access

has been included in the agency 10-year plan and has previously secured $900,000 of RCO grant

funding towards purchase of the site. With all acquisition requirements met including surveys,

aquatic leases, and appraisals, we are requesting $2.8M to complete the purchase of this site. This

is an urgent request to keep the property and the launch open to the public.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Department staff are available to assist you with

evaluating this request and will be happy to answer any questions as they arise. Please contact

Kristen Kuykendall, Capital and Asset Management Program Director, at 360-490-4429 for

additional information.

Sincerely,

Kelly Susewind

RE: WDFW Capital Budget FY 2023-25

Dear Timothy Burns:

Thank you for contacting the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation

(DAHP). The above referenced project has been reviewed on behalf of the State Historic Preservation

Officer (SHPO) under provisions of Governor’s Executive Order 21-02 (21-02).

Should projects become obligated with Washington State Capital Funding and include ground disturbing

activities, and/or alterations to the interior or exterior of buildings or structures 45 years in age or older,

we will request a related project review form to initiate consultation with DAHP under GEO 05-05. If the

project involves a building or structure 45 years in age or older, we will also require an EZ2 form.

If neither ground disturbing activities nor alterations to a building or structure over 45 years old are related

to a project, consultation with DAHP is not required.

These comments are based on the information available at the time of this review and on behalf of the

SHPO in conformance with 21-02. Also, we appreciate receiving copies of any correspondence or

comments from concerned tribes and other parties that you receive as you consult under the

requirements of 21-02. Should additional information become available, our assessment may be revised.

Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment. Please ensure that the DAHP Project Number

(a.k.a. Project Tracking Code) is shared with any hired cultural resource consultants and is attached to

any communications or submitted reports. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Holly Borth

Ringold Hatchery Replace Ponds

Project Title:

Project Class:

Preservation

Description

Starting Fiscal Year:

2024

Agency Priority:

The Ringold Hatchery has several renovation projects in the 10-year plan. To help minimize fish loss and ensure production

goals are met for several species, 14 crumbling vinyl raceways at Ringold Springs Hatchery need to be replaced. The project

plan involves removing the raceways, which were originally considered temporary when installed more than 50 years ago

and replacing them with 16 fiberglass circular tanks (30 feet diameter by 5 feet deep) – the equivalent rearing volume as the

current raceways. An agricultural metal building with bird predation netting would need to be constructed, and intake and

drain systems would need to be re-designed to accommodate the new tanks. There is an emergent need to rehabilitation

and line the rearing ponds, and there is an upcoming need to expand the adult collection capabilities of the site. In order to

best make cost effective design decisions and make sure we are addressing the most critical components first; a pre-design

is necessary to see the whole design picture.

Project Summary

Project Description

1. Identify the problem or opportunity addressed. Why is this request a priority? This narrative should identify

unserved/underserved people or communities, operating budget savings, public safety improvements or other backup

necessary to understand the need for the request. For preservation projects, it is helpful to include information about the

current condition of the facility or system.

The vinyl raceways at the facility have far exceeded their lifespan and require lengthy and repairs routinely. The vinyl liners are

torn, and the steel and wood support structures are rotten. Currently these raceways are used for intermediate rearing of

steelhead, tiger muskies and rainbow fry. They may also be needed for rearing spring Chinook salmon as part of an effort to

help recover Puget Sound’s southern resident killer whale population, which is listed for protection under the federal

Endangered Species Act. Replacing the dilapidated structures would greatly reduce the likelihood of fish loss and help

ensure production goals for fish species are met. There is a critical need to address pathological issue in the rearing pond

and to evaluate the design options to best control disease in the rearing ponds. Without that improvement fish health may be

compromised.

2. What will the request produce or construct (i.e., predesign or design of a building, construction of additional space,

etc.)? When will the project start and be completed? Identify whether the project can be phased, and if so, which phase

is included in the request. Be prepared to provide detailed cost backup.

The supplemental request will produce background design data, consideration of costs and design options in a complete

report of preferred design options, cost estimates, and preliminary site plans.

There would have to be close coordination with hatchery staff to allow the facility to manage production during this project.

This may require moving fish to another facility until the project is complete.

3. How would the request address the problem or opportunity identified in question 2? What would be the result of not

taking action?

A predesign report would best prepare us for a rapid design bid build pathway to be able to address a thoughtful and effective

renovation to a critical hatchery.

4. What alternatives were explored? Why was the recommended alternative chosen? Be prepared to provide detailed

cost backup. If this project has an associated predesign, please summarize the alternatives the predesign considered.

This is a request for a predesign approach and would consider and evaluate multiple options for all future phases. For

instance, to replace the 14 vinyl raceways with 14 concrete raceways and no bird predation netting, which has an estimated

cost of $3.8 million dollars. The estimated cost of replacing the vinyl raceways with fiberglass circular tanks and the addition

of an agricultural metal building and bird predation netting is $2.3 million dollars.

5. Which clientele would be impacted by the budget request? Where and how many units would be added, people or

communities served, etc.

Production at Ringold Springs Hatchery supports recreational fisheries that attract anglers throughout the state. These

opportunities include trophy tiger muskie fisheries at several Washington lakes, a couple of lowland lake trout fisheries, and

the region’s only hatchery steelhead fishery, which occurs in the Hanford Reach of the Columbia River. In addition, the

potential for spring Chinook production could help with the effort to recover Puget Sound’s federally protected southern

resident killer whale population.

6. Does this project leverage non-state funding? If yes, how much by source? If the other funding source requires cost

share, also include the minimum state (or other) share of project cost allowable and the supporting citation or

documentation.

No, the steelhead smolt program is funded by Mitchell Act. However, there is insufficient MA funding for capital improvements

needed to sustain that program into the future. State capital funds are required.

7. Describe how this project support the agency’s strategic master plan or how would it improve agency performance.

Reference feasibility studies, master plans, space programming and other analyses as appropriate.

The agency’s strategic plan goal #2 states: Provide sustainable fishing, hunting and other wildlife-related recreational

experiences. This project allows hatchery staff to meet those goals by continuing to support the Hanford Reach steelhead

and statewide tiger muskie fisheries well into the future.

11. How is this project impacting equity in the state? Which communities are impacted by this project? Include both

demographic and geographic communities. How are disparities in communities impacted?

It is expected that there are few, if any, disproportionate impacts from this proposal. However, if this proposal does not

receive funding, there could be disproportionate impacts to those who rely on hatchery fish for their subsistence, economic

welfare, and recreation if hatchery fish become ill and WDFW does not have enough staff to thoroughly address the issue.

Preservation

Description

There is a strong possibility of disproportional impacts if this proposal isn’t funded as WDFW has recently been having

trouble filling contract positions for fin clipping. When that happens, there are less fish available for tribal fishing, along with

commercial and recreational fishing. Funding this proposal will help ensure tribal treaty rights, subsistence fishing, and

protect treaty resources.

Rural and geographically isolated communities in Washington will significantly benefit from the economic opportunities in

commercial fishing.?Recreational ?shing opportunities throughout the state contribute signi?cant revenue to rural

businesses.? Tribal fisheries will benefit from the continued production of healthy hatchery fish from well-maintained

facilities.

12. Will the project increase or decrease annual operating costs? If yes, please explain.

Annual operating costs are estimated to increase $1000 per year beginning in FY25.

13. Is there additional information you would like decision makers to know when evaluating this request?

Ringold Springs Hatchery does not have alternative rearing vessels for the programs that we use the vinyl raceways for, so it

is imperative that they upgraded.

Sekiu Boat Ramp Acquisition

Project Title:

Project Class:

Program

Description

Starting Fiscal Year:

2025

Agency Priority:

With this request, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) proposes to purchase approximately 2.5 acres of

uplands, tidelands, and an easement for ingress/egress, including a four-lane boat ramp and two parking lots, from a private

fishing resort in Sekiu, Clallam County. This property purchase will provide the only public boat ramp for saltwater fishing and

recreational boating access to the Strait of Juan de Fuca between Port Angeles and Neah Bay.

Project Summary

Project Description

1. Identify the problem or opportunity addressed. Why is this request a priority? This narrative should identify

unserved/underserved people or communities, operating budget savings, public safety improvements or other backup

necessary to understand the need for the request. For preservation projects, it is helpful to include information about the

current condition of the facility or system.

Purchase of this property by WDFW will ensure long-term boating access for public recreational fishing at the oldest

operating fishing resort in Washington State, dating back to the 1930’s. This is a very popular recreation area for boating and

fishing, serving citizens from Washington State as well as users from outside the state. The current owner has indicated that

private investors have expressed interest in buying this fishing resort, which comes with the risk of becoming privatized as

their long-term plans have not included use by the general public.

Sekiu, an unincorporated community in northwest Clallam County, is located about41 miles west of the city of Port Angeles on

the west portion of Clallam Bay and the unincorporated community of Clallam Bay. The property is located inside the Clallam

Bay urban growth area (UGA) and is zoned UC, which is a Clallam County designation allowing a mix of residential and low

impact commercial activities. Clallam Bay/Sekiu are designated as a joint Urban Growth Area and are included as one of six

targeted growth areas in the county UGA plan. As last reported Clallam County had a population increase of 20.6% and the

Clallam Bay/Sekiu UGA a growth of 47.5%. Sekiu/Clallam Bay area is a very small rural area with limited permanent

residents, but an area with high seasonal population during sport fishing season.

Sekiu has an estimated population of 44in 2020 and Clallam Bay has an estimated population of 390 in 2022. The number of

people in this area dramatically increase during fishing season. Sequim, located about 55 miles east, is the second largest

city in Clallam County with an estimated population of 7,940 in 2021. The largest city in Clallam County, and its seat of

government, is Port Angeles with a population of 20,020 and ranks49th among the 281 incorporated cities in Washington

State and is the largest city on the Olympic Peninsula.

The Sekiu site historically is a very high use site and provides numerous economic benefits due to its popularity. Because of

its launch type and the water body served the site has no fewer than 70,000 angler trips per year and also supports a large

number non angler boating opportunities.

Sport and commercial fishing are well established industries and critical to the economic viability in this community. The

towns of Sekiu and Clallam Bay depend on sportfishing for much of their annual economic wellbeing. The Clallam Bay

correctional facility provides the only alternate source of employment in the immediate area. Using economic multipliers

provided by Office of Financial Management, sports fishing provides approximately $9 million into the local economy annually.

Sports fishing dollars support local tackle sales, boat repair services, campgrounds, local restaurants and a variety of stores.

This site is a vital regional sports fishing facility.

This site reportedly averages approximately 19,000 boat trips, equating to about 48,000angler trips, during the primary

salmon season of July – September. Halibut fishing is also important in this area, with approximately 4,000 boat trips and

about 10,000 angler trips during the limited season. This site is also a popular sea kayak launch site.

The landowner has been patiently working with WDFW on this project for over six years, and it’s unclear how long he will

continue to work with WDFW. Although the property is not currently advertised for sale, the landowner has been clear that he

will entertain offers as they are received. Funding from the 2024supplemental Capital budget will reduce the risk of time the

landowner may, or may not, work with WDFW or sell to another party who may privatize the resort and eliminate general public

access. Additionally, The Recreation and Conservation Office has indicated that if 2024 supplemental funding is not received

Program

Description

to acquire this property, WDFW will be advised to return the remaining funding in the current Boating Facilities Program grant.

This will result in the loss of about $950,000 of secured funding in BFP for this project. If WDFW continues to pursue this

project, funding will have to be applied for during the 25-27biennium, thus increasing the risk of time the property may be sold

and/or the current landowner no longer working with WDFW.

If privatized, the public will no longer have access to the Strait of Juan de Fuca for a distance of 62 nautical miles or 100 road

miles, which will also have a devastating impact on the economic viability of the community of Sekiu, which relies heavily on

recreational fishing and boating as its too far from large established commercial centers to offer services or jobs.

Costs associated with permitting and developing a comparable access is exponentially high and unlikely to occur without

significantly investment.

2. What will the request produce or construct (i.e., predesign or design of a building, construction of additional space,

etc.)? When will the project start and be completed? Identify whether the project can be phased, and if so, which phase

is included in the request. Be prepared to provide detailed cost backup.

Purchase of approximately 2.5 acres of uplands, tidelands, and an easement for ingress/egress, including a four-lane boat

ramp and two parking lots, from a private fishing resort in Sekiu, Clallam County, which will provide the only public boat ramp

for saltwater fishing and recreational boating access to the Strait of Juan de Fuca between Port Angeles and Neah Bay. This

proposed acquisition was approved through Lands 20/20 in 2018. BFP funding in the amount of $1,000,000 is secured with a

remaining balance of approximately $950,000. If funded, these capital funds and the remaining BFP funds will be used to

purchase the property. If not funded, the remaining balance of the BFP grant will be returned to RCO.

This project could be phased by purchasing approximately 1.4 of the 2.5 acres, which would exclude one of the two parking

lots. This would reduce the land purchase amount, thus the Capital budget request, by $950,000. The impact of this phasing

would be initial, if not permanent, as there will be crowding at the parking lot adjacent to the boat launch. The second parking

lot is necessary for overflow and will be critical during fishing season openers. Without it, we expect to see cars lining the

road approach, causing significant safety risk and potential resource damage concerns.

3. How would the request address the problem or opportunity identified in question 2? What would be the result of not

taking action?

Purchase of this property by WDFW will ensure long-term public access at a very popular recreation area for boating and

fishing, serving citizens from Washington State as well as users from outside the state.

If WDFW does not acquire this property, there is a potential that public access to the Strait of Juan de Fuca between Neah Bay

and Port Angeles will be lost.

If funding from the 2024 supplemental Capital budget is not received for this project, WDFW will return about $950,000 in BFP

funding back to RCO as there is no current footprint eligible in the BFP with funds remaining. If we lose funding currently

secured, we risk the landowner ceasing negotiations with WDFW with the potential of the property being sold and privatized.

4. What alternatives were explored? Why was the recommended alternative chosen? Be prepared to provide detailed

cost backup. If this project has an associated predesign, please summarize the alternatives the predesign considered.

None explored. The only option is to not acquire this property, which may result in public access to the Strait

of Juan de Fuca at this location being lost to the general public.

5. Which clientele would be impacted by the budget request? Where and how many units would be added, people or

communities served, etc.

Sekiu Boat Ramp Acquisition

Project Title:

Project Class:

Program

Description

RCO’s Recreational Assets of Statewide Significance In Washington State report from 2019 identifies this boating access at

Seiku as one of only 6 “exceptional Boating Access” areas in Washington’s Peninsulas.

If this property is sold to a private investor and privatized, this would eliminate public boating access at this exceptional

location, resulting in a devastating negative impact to the local economy that currently relies heavily on recreational boating

and fishing in Sekiu.

The Recreational Boating Plan completed by the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO), state that people spend about

$4.5 billion on recreational boating in Washington State, annually. This makes recreational boating the second highest in

expenditures when compared to other forms of outdoor recreation, behind only to wildlife viewing and photography.

Recreational boating makes up almost 11percent of all expenditures for outdoor recreation in Washington State. Trip-related

expenditures are the total spent on boating, including equipment, travel and lodging, entrance fees, and food and beverages,

and do not include expenses related to boat fuel or launch and moorage fees.

6. Does this project leverage non-state funding? If yes, how much by source? If the other funding source requires cost

share, also include the minimum state (or other) share of project cost allowable and the supporting citation or

documentation.

No. Approximately $950,000 is available from BFP, funding of which comes from a portion of the gasoline tax paid by boaters,

which is also considered state funding.

7. Describe how this project support the agency’s strategic master plan or how would it improve agency performance.

Reference feasibility studies, master plans, space programming and other analyses as appropriate.

State law directs the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) to protect and preserve fish and wildlife, while also

providing hunting, fishing and other opportunities for people to enjoy the outdoors. Acquiring this access will ensure

long-term access to fishing and non-consumptive outdoor recreational opportunities.
