Planning Unyt Members aod Staff
A list of all the Planning Unit members and staff who contributed to the WRiA 55 & 57 Watcrshed Plan
would take many pages. Many people worked many hours on different aspects of the camplete effort.
Even short-term activitics were absolutely necessary for the completion of this project. The people who
worked as volunteers deserve special apprcciation. The abencies that allowed staff to be invotved also
need commendation. R'ithout the effort of the whole tcam, this would have been impossible.

WP.1.A 55 57 Watershed Manageme;lt Plan Draft2 2-16-2005.dac 5
CIiAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND SACKGROUND In 1998, the Nashington State Legislature cstabl.ished tha R'ashington State Watenhed Planning Act
(WPA) to address water quantity, qualiiy and habitat issues for individual surface water basins in the
state. Codificd under Chapter 90.82 RCN, tfie WPA was designed to allow people that tive, work and
recreate within a watcrshed to collaborate on how they want water withi.n their w-aters6ed to be managed
for the firture. The RTPA signifies the state's comm.itment to provicie for both a growing population and
economy, and for the intesrity of the natural watershed system.
Watershed planning in the Litt1e Spokane River and Middlc Spokane River basins was staried by agroup
of Initiating Governments including tbe City of Spolcane, Spokane Counry, Stevens Coimty, Pend Oreille
County, R'hitworth Water District, and Vera Water and Power. The Spol:arie Tribe was invited but
elected to not participate. The Initiating Governments formed one Planning Unit ttiat voluntarily led the
watershed planning effort. The objectives of this watershed planning effort were to:
Gather Informntion
W'hile a great deal of water resource int'ormation existed for the watarsheds, ffie information was
unconsolidated and uncoordinated. This planning effort made it possible to consolidate substantiaJ
amounts of the ciata, identify data gaps and, in some cases, generaie new data or approaches.
Address Water Resnurce I,rsues
Throuah the planning process, water resourCe issues were identified and prioritized. This allowed the
1'lanning Unit of represented agencics, organizacions, and entitics tp develop solutions and make ,
recom.mandaiions for issues of the highest priority. Provide Local ManQgemenl nf Water Resaurces in WIZL2s 55157
A critical component of this process was the fact #haY the Planning Cinit was able to identify, address and
ma::e rccommendaiions lrom a local perspsctive, thereby creatinV a plan that truly represents 'V~'RIA
55/57 interests, conccms and solutions.
Conrdinaie and Consolidate Water Management Practices
The recommendations include several action items that will result in better WRIA 55/57 Waters6ed
planning and restoration efforts. The Planning Unit focused on the organizafional and management
practices Chat will best implement the ideas put forch in this plan.
Elements of Watershed Planning
7he 1YPA identifies four planning elements that may be addressed in a watershed plan: water quantity,
%,ater quality, habitat, and instream flows.
The water quantity component is rcqui.red, while the other elements are optional. The water quann6ty
component of a watershed pldn acldressE:s water supply and use in a watershed, and how to cievelop
sh-ategies for futuee use, inclucii.ng an evaluation of storage options (Chapter 90.82.070 RCW).
VS'atershecl plans must address the water quatttity component with strategies that will supply adeyuate
insTrearri watcr for fish and out-of-stream water for fuCuue uses and/or pqpulation bTOwth. The WPA
speci6es what types of information must be oatticrcd and what strategies rnust bc employed.
WRIt1 55 57 Ih'atershed eVlanagemcnl Plati Draft2 2-16-2005.doc 6
The water quality cc►rripoiient acidresses water qualiry in a watershed by s}'nihesizinA current available
data. L,ocal and waterhed-Nvide apprc~aches are then developed ior rnonitdring and Total Maximum Daily
Load (7`A4:DL) itriplementa#ion, wfiere neeessary.
The habit-it cqmponent provides tttat t3ie watershed plan is developed in a way that fisb habitat is
protected a,nd enhaiiced. This cornporient "must rely on existine ]aws, rules; or ordinances creat:ed for the
}swpose of prote:cting, eestoring, or enliancing fish habitat" (Chapter 90.82.100 RCVV).
The instream flow componcnt of a watershed plan is desi;ncd to recommend minimum instream flows for
streams wit]iin a watershed_ Ln..stream flows are defined as scientificall}' based, surface watzr flows set by
admini-trative rule to ensvirc adeqi.iale water for ~fish and ather insiream values.
1`he VJaiershed Planninb Plan for WR.tA 53/57 addresses the water quantity and instrean flow
components.
Phases of Watershed Planning
«'atersbed planning conducted under the W'PA may be initiated for a V'R1.A or group of %rRlAs only
with tbe unanimous consent of the lniiiaring Govemments within the Astershsd. 7"he Initiating
Governments inclucle atl counties %Nrithin the waiershed, the lareesi cin, or toAm, and the largest water
u[ilicY. Al] vihss wiih rese?vation lands tirithiri the watE:rshed should be invited to participau: as initiating
Rovernmenis.
~ Fhase C?rvanira#ion and Develoament of z Phase. II Scone of Worl.
During this phase; the Initiati.ng Governmenu appoint a lead aDenc}, for the plann.ing process, decids upon
the slements to be oovered in the pianning pmcess: and organize a Planning linit, comprised nf
stal:eholders within the wate.rshed. Spokane Coun~, was designated the 1:,ead Agency for the combined
WR.I.As 55 and 57.
Phase 2: Tethnica! Assessment
A. Technical AsseSSmen# is cnnducted on the walcrshed to assess its current physical state. The Technical
Assessment mu..st include ffie folJowing minimum requiremcnts:
• Fstima[e of surface and ground„•ate.r present and available given season3) fluctuations and other
variations.
• Estimate of water represe»ted by the watcr rights claims reoistry, water use permits, certificated
rights, exiscing minimum instrcarn flow niles, fr.derally-reserved rights and any other figIlI.,S tc~
w3ler.
• Estimale of surfacP and ;noundwater use and predicted fut:urc nPeds.
• Identif t;ation of aquifers tkiat rechargz surfaa; water and surface areas that recharge aquifers.
• Estimate of the surface and groundimater available for future appmpriation, ta}:_i.ng into act;o«nt

,
Phase WaCershed Management Plan Development
Fhase 3 consists of writing the VJatershed Management Flan. Tlus is accompiished by a review of Phase
2 technical information, research of additional necessary data, and development of recommendations by
the Planning Unit for short-term and long-term aciions and strategies to address curnent and future watsr
needs within the watershed.
Phase 4: Ymplementation
Afier completicm of the planning process, implementation of the plan begins. Funding from tha
Washington State Departrnent of. Ecolagy (Ecolog,ry) is available over a period of five years to assist with
the implementation of a plan.
Watershed Management Plan Approval Process
The Planning LFnit must approve the Watershed Management Plan either by cAnsensus of all its members
or by consensus among members representing units of govemment with a majority vote of the
nongovemmental members. The approved Watershed Management Plan is then submitted to the
county/counties in the watershed. The legislafive authority of each r,ount), in the watershed is required to
hold af least one publ.ic bearing on the plan. Following the individual counry public hearings, the cflunties
are ttten required to convene in a joint session to consider the plan. At the joini session (or in the case af
only one county, at the counry public hearing), the county legisla#ivc authorities can either approve ar
reject the plan, buf may not amend it. Hnwever, they may reject and recommcnd revisions to the Planning
Unit for consideration. In such a case, the coi,mtv review process would begin again foIlnwinS Planning .
Unit revision of the Watershed Plan. The nmeF;,ss ends if the Mrnty legislative authoritiE:s rej;,•ct the plan ~
twice. -Obligations and Egpectatiotis
When lhe Planning Unit and participating state agencies approvc the Walershed Manaeement Plan, the
Depart.meni of Ecology is obligated to adopt by rule, or through an agreement, the Watershed
lv(anagement Plan strategies. Ecology is also required fo track and give priority to making water rights
decisions when there is sufficient information available, per thc recommendations agreed to in the
R'atershed Management Plan. The fnllnwing sections from the 2003 update of Chapter 90.$2 RCW
provide details and dirreccrives to agencies and organizations about plan obligations and expectations:
• RCW 90.82.130(3)(a) For agencies of stale governmenl, the agencies shall adopt by rule the
obligations af both stale and counry governments and rules implementing the state obligatfons, or
with the consent of the Planning Unit, may adopt policies, procedures, or Qgreemenis related 10

WRlA 55157 Approach and Organization
In R'RLA 55/57; Spokane County, Pend Oreiiie County, Suvcns County; Cit), of SpolE:ane, Vera Rrater
and Power, and W'hitNvorth N'ater District assumed the rple Of Initiating, Govemments. .4lthougb no tTibal
reservation land is in the watershed; the Spokane Tribe was invited, bui did not participate. Spokane
County agreed to serve as the lead agency for the project.
On behalf oi 1he IniLiating Gavernments, Spokane County applied for and recsived a planninD grant f.rom
a-ology in )une 1.998. T'he grae►t a.pplicaiion stated th3i tht plannine Unit "is designed to have eqtial
representation to the maximum extent possible, for all major interested narties in the watershed." Onc.e
the gant was received, the Giitie Spokane and Middie Spol:ane River N'atershE:d Rqanagement Plan
praject beRan in 1999.
r' To guidc the planning process, the Tnitiating Crovemments clevelopc:d a Memorandtuu of Agreement
- (MOA). The MOA (Appendix A) idenrified the goal and scope of the plan; possible interests to include
an the WR.IA 55/57 Plannine Unit, the projectt objectives and an outline of the planning procPSS. For
Nl,'R]A 55157; the lniriating Govemmenu decided to address watcr quantity and the optional insveam
flow components.
The WFA envisioas braad public, private and government involvement in the plauning proces5. To
accomplish this, requesis were circulated to agencies, groups and individuals to serve on the Planning
UniL Representation varied slightly over the course of the project, but generally included tvventy or more
inierests (.Appendix B).
The ylaruune Unit met on a monthly basis for over four years, with morc frequtnt mcetings heid during
the final six months of the projecc. Announcements and notes for each meccutg were distributed to
Planning Unit members and other interested parties and posted on the Spokane County Water;hed
website. lnitial work conductad by the :Planning Unit included the adoption of a MOA, the prsparation of
polieies and issues for the T:;chnical Assessment anc! PJatershed Manaeement Flan. 'I'be Planning Unit
used a cpnsensus process to arrive at most decisions. (Piease see AppPndix. C far a eomplete list uf
Planning Unit Operating Procedures.) •
The pre(iminary draft (Draft 0 1) of the Watccshed Management Plan for VdR1A 55 and 57 was complcted
. in e,arly September 2004. Notification was made to the Planning Unit and other stak-eholders, and the
preliminary clraft Plan was posted on the watershed planning website (H-Aw.spokanswatershe;d.org).
Public meetings were held or► September 14 and 15 in Spo}:ane and Colib°rt, respectively, to present the
preliminarv dra-tq Fian anct rec:eive comments from the generdl public. Comrnents on the preliminary draft
Pian Nvere received unfil October 14 2004. The complete Comments are included as Appcndix D.

Augmentation; Eloika Lal:e issues; and other issues related to decision making process, coordinatipn with
other regional water resource issues, and public proeess.
As approved by the WRIA 55/57 Planning Unit, the WR.IA 55/57 Watershed Management Plan (Draft
02) has been amended to address specifc commcnts wben appropriate. The resulting 'WRIA 55/57
Watershed Maoagement Plan is intended to be a consensus-based living document, which, when adopteci,
will be reviewed and amended on a regular basis. A.lso, as the WRIA 54 Watersbed Plan is developed
and adopted, then this plan msy be revised accordingly.
WRIA 55l57 Planning Unit Policy Statements
To guide the development of the Watershed Management Plan, the R'RIA 55/57 Planning Unit creaied
twenty-five Policy Statements for the followring eight (8) major water resource areas: Water Conservation,
Reclamation and Reuse, Instream Flow Necds for the Middle Spol;ane Watershed, tnstream Flow Neetis
for the Little Spokane River, Domestic Exempt We1.ls, afater Rights and Clauns, Strategies for Base Plow
Augmentatioq Strategies for Gmund Vdater Recharge Enhancement, and Approaches to Plan
lmplementation.
The a'RIA 55157 FJanning Unit developerd ninety-seven rccommcndacions to implement the twenty-fvs

availability. The frst scena-io pre:scnts water consumption twenty years into the i'uture to the ycar 2020,
and the second presents water consumption further into the future by artificially pumping the full "
municipal inchoate water rights. These scenarios provide agenera] view of water availability, what the
short and long-term increased demand for water would be due to population growth, and the impact that
withdrawals have on the overall hydraulic conditions in the basin.
Chapter 4 is a compilation of twenty-fcve Policy Statements covering the eight key water resource action
areas. To implement the twenty-five Policy Scatements, the WRiA 55/57 Flanning Unit generated
appro7timatcly 1.00 reaommendations. Recoramendations presented herein do nflt necessarily represenl
obligations by the participating govern.rmcnts and organizations, unless specifically stated.
Chapter 5 is a presentation of the Implementation Matrix. The ]:mplementation Matrix pre9ents the list of
the recommendations developed in Chapter 4 and identifies the prelimi.nary commitrnents of the
Implementing Governmcnts and organirations. The Implementation Matrix is intended to provide the
inirial thinking of the "who" and " when" with respect to implementation of the recommendations, and
includes information regarding proposed fim.ing and the anticipated level of effor[. The Implementation
Matrix is a tool the Planning Unit will utilize to refine the roles and responsibilities of the Implsmenting
Governments and organizatians as the specific implementation measures are developed in Phase N,
which will commence following adoption of this Plan.
Due to the complexities of the multiple political subdivisions within WRIAs 55 and 57, as noterl in
Chapter 2, page 16, the recommendations and obligations in both Chapters 4 and 5 developed for each
watershed do not necessarity represent the full support or prioriry order of implementation by all
participating governments. For example, in WRIA 55, recommenclaliens or obligations that were defined
as top priorities for Spokane Coimty may in fact be a low priarity or no priority for Fend Oreille and/or
Stevens Counties due to varied priorities and issues dealing with the economical, cultural, and population ~
difTert;nces within each county. ~

integrated basirt-scale study of n'RIA 57. ]n 1978 the United States Environm::ntal Proteciion AgencY
(k.PA) desienated the Spakane Valley Rathdrum Prairie (SVRP) Aquifer a"Sole Source. Aquifer".
Currently; the S\'RJ' Aqui-fer is the drinking Ni'atcr source for more than 400,000 people lixtiig in Spokane
Coianiy, Washington and Kootenai County, lciabo. Jaue to the unique charactE:risiies of the SVRP
Aquifcr, most of the previous wori: 'Aithin 11rRlA 57 has focuse-d on this aquifer.
Previous studies include:
Research level studies and pape•rs on the formation of the SVItP aquifer (Bretz, 1930; Bre[z,
1959; Purves, 1969; 13al:er, 1973; K.iver and Stradling, 1985; Jensen anc4 F_ei:dn., 1957; Molenaar;

excsedence flow for the period of record pre-installation of the Pos-t Falls Dam (i.e. 1891 to 1906).
Although Ecology has not completed a basin-scale study of WK1A 57, the NVRIA 55/57 Planning i3nit has
identified a number of issues based on its understanding of the area:
1. The 2,000 cfs Spokane River target ilow is met only 85% af the time and only 55% of the time in
the summer;
2. lnteractions between the SVRP Aquifer and the Spokane FLiver are important seasonally and
sparially to maintain flows and good wmter qual.ity in the Spokane River; and,
3. A bet#er understanding of how Spokane River flnws are impacted by human activiiies (e.g_, land
use cbanges and pumping wells) is required to cbart Yhe future development in WRTA 57.
Summary of Existing Data
VJatershed planning under Chaptcr RCW 90.82 was conducted joint}y in WR.tA 55, the Little Spokane
and WR.I:A 57, the Middle Spokane River basins. Thougb there aze two sucface water basins in the stut3y
area, the drainages are linl:ed by sienificant movement of the SVRP Aquifer water frorn WRI.A 57 to
a'RIA 55. 'Ihe reach of the Spokane River balow the confluence of the Spokane and Little Spokane is
referned to as V49RIA 54, the Lower Spokane River. Tbese basins comprise the Spokane Rivcr / Aquifer
System that is tributary to the Columbia River.
WRIA SS is comprised of the drainagc basin of the Little Spokane River (F'igure 21A). NRIA 57 is
comprised of the portion of the drai.naoe basin of the Spokane River &om the Washingtan-[daho border to
its confiuence with Haneman (L.atah) Creek (Figure 2.I.A) anci is callvd the Middle Spokane Watershed. ,
For modeling purposes the USGS eage near Post Falls serves as the study area boundary duc to tbe I
hydraulic control pmvided by tbe gage. '
For this stmmary of existing data, Spokane Couniy acted as a clearinghouse for t'he transfer of
inf'ormatinn from tEie watershed Planning Unit rnembers ta Golder. The inforaiation was cnmpiled ir~ one
of fnur formats: hdrdcopy; bibliography; GIS data layers; or other eleetronic data (e.g., spreadsheets,
databases, etc.).
Regional Setting
Figure 21A ouTlines the boundaries of Mt.IA 55 (the Little Spokane R.iver Basin) and WR.IA 57 (the
Middle Spokane River Basin) relative to surrounding basi.ns and political jurisdictions. T'he basins are
located on the eastern boundary of Washington State in the rain shadow of the Cascade Range. T'he two
basins are located on the eastem edge of the Columbia River Basalt Flateau, in the foothills of the Rocl.y
Mountain Range. The Little and Middle Spokane Watersheds arc located in Northeastern Nashington on
the border with Idaho. The naturdl drainage of the Little Spokane River is almost entirely wiitun the
WRIA SS boimdary; onty a small portion of the drainage laps over into Idabo. WRLA 57 contains less
than 10% of the contributing natural dzainage of the Spokane Basin. Most of the Spokane watershed Iics
in idaho.
Geology
'1`he suhsurfaec geology is c:omprised of crystalline base►nent rocks of guanite and gneiss, which outcrop
<m thc uplands surrounc9ing the basins. Columbia River Bmalt rucks eover pau-ts of the ]ower clevations

,q second key clitn3tic component of a vrater balance for a hydrologic system is evapotranspiration, the
n;moval of waccr from the system by cvdporation from surface watcr and the removal 01' wacer £rom the
system by planu, cranspiration. l.n the model used to evaluate the hydrology of the lvliddle Spokane and
Littie Spol;ane basins this elernent is calculated from a variety of faetoTS including precipitation,
temperdiure, wind, soil moisture. and vegetation type. Evaluations of evapotranspiration for the area have
been made for a var,rieh, of purposes including earlier modeiing efforts. The several models used produce
polential evapotranspiration rates ranging f.rom 2 to 4 inches per year for Spo}:ane. .4ctuai
evapotranspiration is [imited by precipitation and is usualiy aboui half the potential eva{potranspiratian
unless irrigation is applied. Potentia) evapotranspi.ration may reach % inch per day durino a hpt su .m.mer.
Land Use
.
-'l,and use and land cover vary in the two basins. In R'R]A the dominant land uses are forest (70%),
agriculture (25%) and urban developmeni (S%). ]n WRiA 57, the doininarit land uses are forest (60%),
b~rRCA 55 57 VtilaEershed Management: Plan'I7raft2 2-16-2005.aac 1.5
urban develapment (23%), and agriculture (16%). Land us,e cbanbes in the fulure are expecied to result in
the cflnversion of agricultural land to wban land use in both V✓RTAs.
Politicai Subdivisions
VJRIAs 55 & 57 contain a number of politica) subdivisions. The Little Spokane (WRIA 55) basin lies
primarily within Spokane Counry but portions lie in Stevcns and Pend Oreille Counties. The City of Deer
Park is the largest municipality that lies completely in the watershsd. The incorporated town of Clayton
and unincorporated communities of Elk Milan, Riverside, Cbattaroy, Colbert, and Mead also fall within
thc watershed boundaries. The entire Middle Spokane basin (RTRLA 57) within Washington State lies in
Spokane County; there are four additional municipa] governments with jurisdiction in the basin. The City
of Spokane is the largest both in terms of land area and population. The Town of Millwood is the
smallest. The City of Liberty L,ake and the City of Spokane Valley, incorporated in 1498 and 2063
respectively havz been created since the inception of watershed planning. The populations and
population projections of the areas within Spokane County are listed in Table 2.I.13.

Unlike many cammunities where public waier is providcd by the municipal governmeni, a Iarge pomon
of the water delivered to both the incorporated and unincnrporated wban area is provided by special
purpose watsr and imgation districts. Of the approximatcly 275,000 people in Yhe Planning Area, 40 %
aze scrved by water systems operated by cities, 50 % by special purpose water disfiriGts, and 10% by
individual wells. Table 21C lists the major water systems with theu 2000 populations and projected
2020 populations. Almost half of the customers served by the City of Spokane live outside of the WRIA

Surface Water
The major streaqn in WR1.4 55 is the f ilile Spokane River and the major stream in 'VR_I,A 37 is aportion
of the Spakane River. Graph-q of annual discharge over the period af mcord for gages on both the Little
Spokane and Ahiadle Spokane show highJy variable flows (Figurs 2113). Mc:an annual discharee for the
Lit[le Spokane at Darcford is 220,000 acre-feet, for the Spokane Kiver at Spokane it is 4.8 million acre-
feet- '
On both streams, ihe maximum recorded discharpe is approxirnately 4 times the minimum discharge.
Although annual variations and long-term streamflow tTends are aff~ct.ed by water diverSiOnS and
withctrawals, large-scale weather paticnis (e.g., decadal paCCems affected by t}ie Pacifc Decadal
Osc.illation [PDO]) are b:,•lieved to be Ihe dominant infiucnce aflecting streainflows. This effect is
clearest in the more than 100 years of data for the Spokane River at Spokane gage.

Little Spokane River
rhe headwaters of tbe Little Spokaue River are split approximately evenly between thc West Branch of
the Little Spokanc River and the mainstem. The mainstem heads in a large wetland area west of Newport,
VVA. Some studies suggest thc mainstem may receive baseflow from the Pend Oreille River system in che
form of inter-basin underflow. The PJest Branch of thc Little Spokane River heads in the Diamond Lake
drainage and flows tlvough several large shallow lak-es, Diamond, Sacheen and Eloilca, before merging
with the main stem at River Mile 28.
Flow in the upper reaches of the Little Spokane River increases primarily through the cantribution of
tributaries such as Deadman and Aragoon Creeks. In the lower reach, defined here as the reach between
the Dartford gage and the mouth, flow increascs sianificantly as a result of gmundvNrater discharge from
WRIA 57 via the SVRP Aquifer. The river is dominatttly gaining throughout its length. The Little
Spokane River has few artificial controls on its flow and thc hydrograph shows sharp responses ta
seasonal effects such as snaw pack melt.
Minimum instream flc?ws wcre established in 1976 ai four points on the Little Spokane R.iver (Ch. I73-
555 WAC). The minimum flows were set at the 80°/a exceedence levet based on ttie historical record.

An instrr-am flow target of 2,000 cfs ai the Spokane River at Spol:ane gage was agTeed to by Ecology and
the Washingtnn Department of Fish and Wildlife in 1999. Tbis target was based on 50% oi natural flows using flaw data from before the installation of the Post Falls Dam (1891-1906). 1fie lowest seven-day
average flow fails to meet instream flow target almost every year. 1be frequency and dutation of non-
attainment of these target flows correlates to wet and dry Pacific Decadal Oscillations (PDO) periods.
Recent studies suggest that the 1891-1906 periad may have been within a wet PDO periad, If so, the
instrezn flow target may not he representative of 50% of natural flows on averagre over di$'ereni climatic
periods.
Groundwater
Important groundwater resoures aquifers occur primarily within the unconsotidated sediments that
include glacial flood deposits and recent alluvium. Important local sources of domescic water supply are
also found within glacial lal:e deposits, fractured and weathered basalt, and crystalline basrment rocks.
Dense and unweathered crystalIine basement roel;s as well as glacial lal:e clays act as important local
aquitards, rFStsicting vertical and latera) a oundwater mavement- The crystalline basernent aquitard
represents the lowcr hydrogeoloQ c boundary of the region.
Eight aqu.ifer areas have been delineated in WRIAs 55 and 57. Tbree of these areas (Five Mile Prairie,
Orchard Prairie and Green Bluff) contain basatt aquifers. Four of these areas (the SVR}' Aquifer, the
Little Spokane River aquifer area, Peone Prairie, and the Diamond Lake aquifer area) are unconsolidated
sediment aquifers. 1'he Deer Park Basin is comprised of an upper unconsoIidated sediment aquifer and a
lower basalt aquifer. The SVR,P Aquifer, which occurs within the eentral portion of WR1A 57 and ffie
southern portion of R'RIA 55, as well as extending into Idaho, is one of the most productive aquifecs in
the United States and serves as the primary water s4um.s for more than 400,000 people in VJashington and
Idahn. 1he SVRP Aquifer acts as a conduit for flow from the Spokana River through the Hilfyard Trough
to the Little Spokane River, and to a lesser extent ihrouoh the Trinity Trough tA lower reacbes of thv
Spokane River.
The majority of the rraundwaier level data collected over the years in WRL4s 55 and 57 are f.rom tfie
various SV12P Aqui(?:r moni.toring progcams. Some data were also 8vailable f'or the Deer Pari; $a5in and
the Little Spokan,.,; .4quifer arta.
Three types of groundwater level fluctuations were observed in 6ydrograph data from tiVRI.A 55 and
ArRIA 57:
1. Groundwater levels in close hydraulic continuity with surface water exh,ibit quick response (e.g.,
hours or days) to river stage fluctuations, with the msponse beeoming more muted and the time
lag becoming longer with increasing distance from surface water bodics;
2. Seasonal fluctuations in response ta rainy and dry seasons; and,
3. X..ong-term (decadal) fluctuations as a result of exiended periods of helow or above avcrage
prer.ipitation.
'I'hcse variations of respanse may be important for dcvcloping water resource management options. For
i.nstance, the lag timc behveen surface watcr and groundwater tluctuations may allow for developmcnt of
groundwater extractions in areas of the aquifer system so that impacts to surface water occur during times
of the year with higher flows.
A series of groundwater flow models for the SVRP Aquifer have bpen constructed over the last 30 years.
The purpose for developing models range from aquifer flow and contarninant transport (USGS models _
from the 1980's) to support of land development (i.c. groundwater stappty) tjnd ln designate we[lhead i

Current data show [ha# water quality in the SVR,P Aquifer is Eood to excellent- Aithough there are few
exampl4s of actual cAntamination, the high poiential for contaminaiion to the sole source aquifer is
perhaps the most cricical groundwater qualit}' issue in the basin. R'ater quality trends from ths.: 1970s and
1980s showed a erddual increase in contaminanrs, particularly nitraie- N, «rithin the aquifer. Tbe increase
.vas attributed to the rapid residential deveiopment dependent an sepiic tan}: - drainfield w2ste dispasal.
ntith the aggressive sewer construction effore launclied in bo[h norChern ldabo and Spokane County in the
mid 1980's, aquifer degradat:ion ha..5 slowed or stopped. 1°he SVR,P aquifer is high]y stasceptible tn

Water Use and Allocation ~ Water Rights
A concise version of Ecology's Wattir Rights Applicafion Tracking System (WRATS) databasc was
quetied to provide a synoptic assessment of the current status of w^ater allocation. The results of this
assessmen4 are summariced in the tables below. The WRATS database was incomplete with respect to
the quantities associated with all permits and certifcates and no quantilies were given for claims.
lfierefore, a number of assumprions were made to quantify all rights. Water rights where the purpases of
use are listed as fish propxgation, fire suppression and power were tallied separately and excluded from
Table 2.I17 because they are generally nan-consumptive, or, in the case of fire suppression, rarely used.

users of surface water (1917) and gmundwater (1945) to n;gister claims to water rights. The
methodology usetl to qua.ntify water rights and claims indicates that claims may constitute approximately
15% of ihe total amoumt. A review of the cIaim records reveals apparent duplicate and triplicate rewrds
for similar claims. These apparent rept.icatioas are probably due to individuals registsring the same c[airn during each claim registry period and likety do not a,.hially represent unique claims. Therefore, the
numbar of claims may be significantly less than indicatecL
The disrtribution of water rights among various pw-poses of use is s6own in Table 21G. The amount
allocated to exernpt wells is estimated based on per capita use in the City of Spokane and several rural

F3ased on these estunaces about 6% of water allocated for agricultural imigation is actually being ussd.
However, this estimate daes not account for conveyance losses or irriga#ion applieation efficiencies. ne
distribution of imgation rights being exercised likely varies vsidely and it is expectad that many imgation
rights are being used to the full extent of validity. ApproximaYely 43% of water allocated to municipal
and domcstic use is being used. However, the availability of allocated water rights is not evenly
distributed among purveyors. In fact, growth within some wa#er districts is limited by their available
water rights quantities. The estimatc of municipal and domestic actual use does not include small
domestic svstems with six or less connections. About 67% of the water in WRIA 57 allocated for
commercial and industrial applications is being used, while approximately 18% of the w2ter allocated in
WRIA 55 for this purpose is bcing uscd.
Comparison of water use should also take into accourit the c;onsumptive gortion of w^ater use. 71iis is the
portion of water that is evaparated through various pmcesses ancl transpired by plants as opposed to the
portion of water that is retumed to gmundwatcr or streams. '1'he largest consumptive water use in the two
basins is outdoor use for irrigation of landscaping. Cornparing winter and summer v►^ater usc f.rom

II. Level 2 Technical Assessment: Additional Data Coliection and Assessment
tlfter reviewing the Draft Phase II- Level I Assessment Data Compilatioa and Preliminary .Assessment
(Golder, 2003), the Planning Unit opted to collect additional information in several areas. Primary needs
were for:
■ Refinement of data to calibrate the 1vrCKE SHE groundwater model (seIected as the prefcrr-ed tool
for analyzing water availability);
• Assessing the suitabiiity of Little Spokane River minimum flows as protection for aquaiic biota;
• Developing data for an instr,eam #]ow recommcndation far the Middle SpDkane; and
• Evaluating storage altematives to enhancc streamflow and increase water supply.
As with the exisfing informafion provided above in Section 1: Level 1 Technical Amssment, the
summaries presented bslow are drawn primarily from the executive summaries of the parent docwnents;
supplemental data and data interpretations are expanded with additional material from the individual
project reports.
Watershed Simulation Model
Early in the program, the RIRIA SS and57 W'atersbed Planning Unit decided to use a numerica] model to
assess water availability in the Middle Spokane and Little Spokane basins. The approach was selectsd
b:acause the large body of existing data for the planning area nrovidES a sotmd technical base for an
accurate model and public ac;eePc:ibility of ciecisions hased on well calibrated models. The Flanning Unit
opted to use the MIICE suite of software pac:kages develop;,d by the Danish 14ydrol9gic :l.nstitute.
'I'he basic MIKE SHE madel inclucles six moctiilar components, eaeh describir►g a major flow process of
l'he hydrologic cycle. T'hese irlclude interceptiorL/evapotranspiration, overland flow, channel flow,
unsa.turated zone flow, saturated zone flow and snow pack. Additionally, in the Little Spokane and
Middle Spokane Watersheds, simulations of lawn watering and agricultural irrioation were included. A
primary $enefit of the M.[KF SHE modeiing environment is its ability to sinlulaCe ground,,rZter and
surface water interactions.
Model Calibration and Sensitivity Anaiysis
1'he MiKE SHE model was calibrated over the hydrologic years 1994 through 1999 that includes
representative dry (1994), wet (1997) and average years (1939). Calibration dala included continuous and
snapshot river discharge, goundwater elevation, and snow water equivalent measurements.
Calibrarions of heads in the central SVR,P Aquifer i.n V1rRU157 are shov►m to be accurate at both high and
low water table elevations. Calibration in the I-lillyard Trough ars:a shows variable agreement between
simulated and actual water levels due to the existence of silt/clay lens in the central Fortion of the Hillyard
Trough. This is in part due to the models method of solving a lens setup that restricts accurate calibrarion
to heads from wells screened above, in and below the lens. C.alibrdtion near the model boundary indicates
a need for additional data in this area to simulate aquifer rGSponse to the high degree of river to aquifer
recharge and the distribution of this water in the aquifcr.
Geologry, hydro~eology and ealibration data in the aquifers of W17,I:A SS are spzirser than in WRiA 57 .ind

Tne response of cbange in strzamf7ow of the Spol;ane River at Spokane cArrelates well to pumping of
groundwater. Peal: gr'oundwater pumping uncter current condiiions is araumd 320 cfs; w3iife the maximun
difference in streamflow under predevelopmenl conditions compared to current conditians was around
215 cf.s. 3uly, August, and September flows were between 177 cfs and 247 cfs higher under
precleveJapment conditions. Tlic total discharge of the Spokane River at lht' Spnkasie gage over the
complete period of time simula-ted (1993 to 1999) was highcr wiih predevelopmt.•ni conditions. lfiis
additional flow cquates to E2% of the tatal groundwatcr pumped over the period of time. Th° remaining
18% of groundwater withdrawals is prohably accounted for with raised groundwater levels, more flow•

The Little Spokane River stream.ilow A# Dariford, which is prunari]y upsveam of major influences by the

• Most water withdrawal occucs do,.;vstream of this moaitoring point and
■ Return #lows of upsTream uses reenter ih• Little Spol:ane River before t#1is point and no bypass

Peal; annual change in streamflow Az Dartford is around 10 cfs. StreamfloNN, at the N:sar Taartfcrd gage on
the Little Spokane River shows agreater responsc to groundwater pumping. The pea}: ehanee in

In this model scenario, the Sgol:ane River at Spol;ane discharge decreases by approx.imatety 30 cfs in the
summer and 25 cfs in the winter. Between 7 and 13 cfs of the lost flow is returned downstream by the
Waste R'aier Treatmcnt Plant The chan,ge in discharge of the Spokane River correlates well to pumping
of groundwater. There is no significant lag time between when peal: pumping occurs and when the
geaxest de:t;rsase in flows occurs. This suggests that impacts of pumping groundwater from the SVRP
Aquifer in WRIA 57 to the river emerge quick-ly.
The Little Spakane River streamflow at the At laartford gage has a pea}: change ia streamflow of
approxi.maiely 22 cfs between November and Decembcr and a minimum change in streamflow of
approximaiely 13 cfs during July and August time prriod. Flow a1 the Near Dartford gage shows a very
similar responsc with an additional reduction of about 1 cfs during the whole year. This additiona]
reduction is mos# I.ikely due to pumping in the Hillyard Trough. There is a significant lag time betwacn
peak pumping and pcak reduction in streatnf]ow in the Little Spokane River. This suggests a buffering
effect due to the distance bctwecn the pumping and the river and/or the naLura] groundwater storage
capacity.
Groundwater elevations dxreased between 0.25 and l fooi throughout the modeled area.. 1he tlecreases
in groimdwater elevations are nat great, hut lead to the reduction of groundwater discharge to surface
water. The largest decreases in goundwater discharge to the Spakane River occur in the gaining reaches
around Sullivan Road and just upstream of Greene StreeL The largest decreases in groundwater discharge
to the Little Spokane Ftiver oocur in the gaining reach between Dragoon and Deadman Geck as well as
the reach downstrc.,am of I?artf'ord Creel:.
Scenaria 2- Spokane River Diversion and Ayuifer Injection During High F1ows
Auriny the bigh flmv pvriod from April l to Jur►e l, 100 cfs was diverted frpm the Spnkane River near
Post Fa1is and used to recharge the SVRP Aquifer by havinf., the water percolate into the ground in a
shallow excavation near $arker Road and Trent Road.
Groundwater elevations increase amund the injeeUon point during the injection period. After injection
has ended, the groundwater mound spreads and dissipates from the model eastem boundary to Upriver
llam, with same effects downstrsam. There is no change in groundwater elevations in the Hillyard
Trough. In August, the groundw°ater mound has almost f~ully dissigated.
Flow in the Spokane Rivcr at Greene Street decreas$s immediately upon diversion of river water but the
effects of water returning to the river from the injection site to the river app.ears within 7 days - the outpul
time step for results. Once diversion and injecbon stops, there is a sharp increase in streamilow above
natural conditions. The increase is not sustained and is faz less than the total injected volume. The river
flow response at Greene Street ends by August and adds, on avE,rrage, 20 cfs in June and S cfs in July. No
' additional water from the diversion enters the Spokane R.iver downstream of Greene Street There is also
no impact on the Little Spokane River.
nis scenario sbows the truly dynanuc nature of the SVF'ZI' Aquifer with the rapid dissipation of watcr
away frnm the injection point toward the river. injecting water at the specifed locaiion and time will
insignificantiy increase the flows in the Spokane River during low flow periods.
Scenariu 3- Redistribution of Pumping Away from the Spnkanc River

Fleciric welis. The majority of the pumpirig has been transCerred to the City-Nevada xnd City-Ray welis
wit}i additional pumping at the City-Central ajid City-Hoffman wells. J7o«msuc;am c►f Sullivan Road to
just upstrearn of Greene Streei tihere is an increase in the average grc7undtvau;r clt;vatihns. Below Greene
Street and throu;;ti the I-Iillyard TroLbh tiiere is an average decrease in groundwater elevations_ At
Grep-ne Strec:t, discharge to the Spol:ane River increases the flows by as much a.s 35 cfs during the late
summer (August). The flow in the Spokane Fzivcr af the Spokane gaLe is hi5her during the summer
mnn[hs by as niueh as 14 cfs but th:,•re is eith~r no Pffect or a sliyht clrert„a.se in flow during the lat.e winter
and spring. Flo%v in the Little Spokane fi,iver near Dartford shnws a dccrease in discliat^ge, between Iand
2,5 cfs throuQhoui the matlel run. This is lil:el}, due t:o decrea_ses in grflundwater elevations in the

Current pumping of municipalldomestic wELtet rights is about 145,000 acre-feet Per yeae. Witlr the

canditions.
1be model shows ihree primar}, impacts from puinping 91% of all municipal incboat:• water rigbts. The
average rc::duction in SDol:ane River diseharge at Spokane is 150 cfs with a maximum during the mid to
late summer of about 250 cfs. Some of this wate; is returned to the river via wasteAster discharge
downstream. The most pronounced reductions in groundwater levels in the SV]t3' Aquifer of 2 to 5 feet
occur dwring the sumrner from near Pines Road into the I-iillyard Trough. 7'he flow in the Little Spokane
River downstream of Dar4ford is reduced an average of 18 efs. 'I°'he majority of this reductian (13 cfs)
occurs above Dartford with the rcmaining 5 cfs due to diminishing the flow of groundwater through the
1-Iil]yard TrouOh and the associatF:d discharge to the Litile Spokane. River. The r:]ative change in
streamflows is approximately the same in both wau:rsheds (e.g., 10%-15% reduction).
Due to the hi?h hydraulic conduetiviry of the S%rRP Aquifer; the impact7 of groundwater puanping were
immediately visible in WRIA 57 with quick, thpujh not cocnplete, rebounds during the winter months.
There is a significant Fime lag between the seasona] period uf peak growidwater withdrawals (Ju1y-
.Aueust) and impac# to the Little Spokane Rivar (Dzcemher-]anuary). The cause of the time lag b:.•xween
H7lhdrawals and stTeamflow impacts is interpreted to be a tesull of the dispersion of wclls through the
watershed, the 'tndirec4 hydraulic continuity betNveen the pumped aqui.fers and sucams; and buffering of
impacts by groundwater storaee.

The m~focus of the studies was to assess the needs for a uatic biota. Flows for
P~ny q aquatic biota are
often considered the most critical for watershed plann.ing as many watersheds eontain species that musi be
protected by law.
Other areas of instream flow needs identified by the Planning Unit may call for more water than biota.
The foiu instream-flow needs identi5ed are: aquatic biota, recreaiion and aesthetics, water quality and
hydropowcr. The information available for assessing flow for these needs ranges from qualitative,
anecdotal statements from river users to somewhat quantitative data collected by Avista Utilities as part
of their work for relicensing the Spokane River hydroelectric project
Little Spokane River Instream Flow Needs Assessment (Aquatic Biota)
Spokane Couaty contracted with Golder to conduct a detailed study of the Little Spokane Rivcr to
determuie if the flows set by rule would protect aquatic biota. Table 2. TT.C summarizes the minimum
flows set in Chapter 173-555 VJAC for the four cnntroI points on the Little Spol:ane River. The table also
includes the mean annual flow for the stream based on USGS records.

'Che kcy pwpose of the Little Spokane R.iver instredm fivW needs assessment is to re-evaluate the existing
minimum instream flows in the context of habitat n€>eds for selected fsh species (i.e. Redband/runbow
trout and mountain whitefish). Tliis assessment focuses on estaUlished minimum instream f.iow control
points on the Litt(s Spokane River and locations on iributary streams (Otter, Dragoon ana Deadman
Creeks). The as5cssment of exis[ing instream flows was based on the resutb of a Vvetted Perimeter
evaluation as well as a fish habitat cvalustion using a single transact Physica.l Habitat Simula#ion
(PHrABSIIvn analysis.
Both the wetted perimeter and the PF-IABSIM methods require selection of study sites to collect the
neee.ssary feld daia. Study site selection occurred under the guidance of the NVRIA SS and 57 Planning
Unit Instream Flow Work Group, with input from representativcs of the WashiVon Department of Fish
and Wildlife (W'DFW), Ecology and technical experts from Golder. Decision-malcing was also based on
ficld visits to potential study sites. Homogcneous reaches wcrc delermined from longitudinal profiles of
. the stream and site visits. Study sites were selected on the basis of existing minimttm instream flow
control points, &sh habitat, fish distribution and use, hydrology, existing data, site aceessibility and the
cost-per-site relative to the chosen instream flow methodology. Study sites pn the Little Spokane R.iver
were located at Pine River Park, Chattaroy and Elk. Sites were also established on Ottsr Cret;k, Dragoon
and Deadman Creeks. The site transects were sslected to tal:e advantage of the best locally available
conditions for stage and discharge measurements. Transects were loeated in the riffle habitat to facilitate
the wetted peruneter approach.

As the discharge in a river increases tt►e amount of sveambed thai is covered by water, i.e. the weucd

The application of the wetted perimcter method nrPic3IIy includes a de;rse of subjectivity in seiecfing the
inilectio❑ point in the plot of wetted perimeter versu5 discbarge. The Litile Spokane River at El}: and
Deadman Creek exhibited fairly naticeable inilection points (and several in some cases) while the sites at
Pine River ParA, Ch3ttaroy and Dragoon Creek were much more subtle, exioibiting stcady changes in
slope rattier thar► a disti.nct breal:poini. Tbe Qrter Creek site showed a break in thc slope; however, thc
pattern of changing slope then reversed itself. This artifact of the transcct iocation lughlights thc
limitations of using a single transect pST S1l:E. The ciear breakpoint on Otter Creek occurs over a range of
flows assoeiated witb a small terrace on one bank that appears to be higher than tihe typical base flows in
the creek.
7he wetted perimeter method provides a sineie instream flow number that is ePnerally applied throughout
the year. This approach does not tal:e into accnunt the variability of the natural stream hydrograph or t:he
variability of fish h3bitat needs at different life. stages. I.n this discussion the wetLed perimeter flow values
are therefore evaiuated using the results of the fsh habitat analysis w deternlEne if the Wetl.er perirr►eter

Each simulated discharge is evaluated to determine the amount of suitable habitat available across the ~

rainbow trout wh.ilc suitability criteria developed at eatper[ workshops in Alberta were used for mountain
whitefish. The habitat at any discharge can be compared to the maximum available tabitat can be def.ned
as a proporkion of the maximum available habitat The weighted ¢ssable width curves were used to
define the amount of habitat available for each life stage of interest at the existing minimum flows, as
well as the flows recommended by the Wetted Perimeter analysis.
Evaluation of Exiskiog Minimum Instream Flows
T'be eacisting minimum instream flows on the Little Spokane River provida a variab]e flow r egime that
re.fleets the seasonal variability af water in the region. Tiiis is a desired feature of an instream flow rule
and it is recommended that any sdjustment t4 the curnent m.inimum instream flow values should retain
s..asonal variability. In general, based on the evaluation of the weighted useable width cun+es for each
life stagc of rainbow traut and mountain whitefish, the current rninimum instream flows for the three
control sites on the upper Little Spokane Rive7 pmvide relatively good habitat protection for most of the
year. Table 2.II.E provides a suaunary of the information collected at Pine River Parl:, the sampling site nearest
the Dariford gage. The Darcford gage is used to enforec clnsures on junior water rights in the Lit#le
Spokane Basin and is thus a key to water right management Based on the PHABSIM anatysis,
increasing the regulatory minimum instream flow at Pins Rivcr Park site on the Litlle Spokane R.ivcr
frnm the existing 115 cfs to the 160 recommended by the wetted perimeter method dimng July -
September would provide a habitat gain for adult and juvenile life stages of rainbGw trout and mfluntain
whitefish but a decrease in habitat for fry. Spawning does nat occur during the summer perind.

The u.se of habitat si.mulation modcling for rainbow trout and mountain whitefish in the Little Spol:ane
River shows that typical spring flows exceed the optimum flow for Rainbow Trout spawniog at Dartford
and are in the ogtimum range at Chattaroy and Elk. Flows at a1l three sitss are in the optimtm range for
winter spawning of Mountain Nk'hiLef sh
Fstablishing a single regulatory minimum insftam values for the full yeaz, as suggested by the wetted
perimetcr methoti, does not reiiect the seasonal variability of flow and is not recommended for application
ihroughout the year. During Augvst through October the wetted perimeter flows are seasonally
appropriate and tbe minimum flow at Elk Park could be lowered to 32 c£s if desired. Using 32 cfs would
result in a sma]1 gain in habitat for juvenile / adult rainbow and slight habitat loss for mountin whitefish
juvenile / adult populations. Due to the conflicting cansequences on fish habitat of changing the
minimum summer flow, chanb*ing the minimum is not warranted based on existing information_
Tributary instream Flows
No minimum instream flows have been set for the tributaries of the Little Spol;ane R.iver. A detailed
evaluation to detcrm.ine the biological relevance of the existi.ng instrsam flow for Dragoon, Deadman and
Otter creels is not possible at this time due to the lack of suitable long term bydrologic information.
Habitai evaluaiion was conducted using the wetted perimeter method described previou,sly.
Tables 2.II.H and 2.II.I summarize minimum flows that would be set using the wetted gcrimeter approach
far the three LSR tributaries studied. These results show that the wetted perimeter approacb provides
bood habitat protection for rainbow trou2 adults and juveniles and mounrain whitefsh fry. For the other

Little Spokane River Instream Flow Needs for Uses other than Aquatic Biota
In additian to supporting aquaiic biota the Little Spokane 32.ivcr provides for severaJ other iaStr£am
beneficial uses.
Ae.ctheties and Recreaticm
The current recreational and aesthetic uses in public areas of ►he J:,ittle Spokane River are canoeing,
kayaking, swimmino, fishing, picnicl:ing, and holding ceremonies. These same activi[ies oc~cur to a lesser
extent on private por#ions of river, which are not open to the eeneral public due to a 1900 ruling by the
WRIA 55 57 ~1'atershed A4anagement -Plan Dralt2 2-16-2005.dot 37
R'ashington State Suprame court. The public areas along the Little Spokane River are Elk Park, Pine
River Park, and the Litkle Spokane Natural tlrea.
In Elk Parl:, swimtning is somewhai Iimited near the end of the season wiien the flows are lower because
tbe rocks are more dangerous for kids floating down the river. The main flow related use at Pine River
Park is swimming. Low flows malce swimming less fun, but the main complaint from users is the small
beach. The parks' employees did not mention receiving complaints about swimming in the river making
people sick.
Paddling or floating the river in canoes, kayaks, and inner tubes are the main flow related uses of the
I.iitle Spokane River in the Natural Area Swimming is not allow cd in this reach Penple paddle the rivcr
at almost every levcl; however, the 2003 summer's flow of 90 cfs may be thc lowesi some groups can
use. Lowering minimum instream tlows may also barm cultulal and educational values.
Little Spokane River Water Quality
Four stream segments in the T ittle Spokane Watershed are listed on Washington Staie's 303d list. A
segment of the Little Spokanc in the Natural Area is listed for PCBs. A segment of ths Litile Spokane
just downstream of f-Iighway 395 is listed for twbiciity. A segrnent of Deadman Creek near the mouth is
listed for fecal coliform, as is a segment of Dragoon Creek near its mouth. .
The onJy permitted point source discharges inta the Little Spokane River and its tributarics aze the Colbert
LazidfiU volatile organie compound stripping facilify and Kaiser AJuminum - Mead. The Colber# Landfill
facility discharges clean o oundwaier and does not limit beneficial uses. 'I"he Kaiser Aluminum - Mead
plant is no longer operating and is noi clischarging any 'mater.
The Spokane County Conservation District is c.urrently worl:ing on a Watcr Quality Plan for the Little
Spokane Watershed. Tt►e process will identify the non-point sources of contamination in the tvatershed
and develoa a plan to cle:in up or prevent non-point source potlutanls from entering the river.
Hyd ropower
!"bere is ver_y little potential for low-head hydropower developmerit in the Little Spokane Watershed.
Lswering the flows in the Little Spokane R.iver and iu uibutaries would limit the potential for any future
low-head hydropower development-
Middle Spokane River Instream Flow Needs Assessment
Unlike the Little Spokane River where hydropower is not a factor in assessing instream flow, the Middle
Spokane has three hydroelectric devclopment (HED) projects within its boundaries. Upper Falls HCD
xnd Ntonroe Street HEL7 are Avista Utilities projects in downtown Spokane and Upriver Dam is a City of
Spokane facility a1 the east city limits. All these facilitics are "run of the river" with impoundments
serving only to provide a constant head for the turbines. The Yost Falls HED in Idaho, four miles
upstream nf ttze Midcile Spokane WWA boundary at the State Line, regulates flow i.n the Spokane Ravcr
during four to six months of the year. Middle Spokane River Aquatic Biota

vansect locations wEm established in the Monroe Reach, the Peacceful Valley area located at Rve- Mile
73.4 and thc Fver*rvzn Sucet site was located at River Mile 72.5.
Depth; vclociry; ilow and substrale measuremenu at each of the transects were made while. Past Falls
I-iEll ilow released approaimately 500, 1500, and 2500 cfs. Aitering the ciischarg° thruuQh the Fost Falls
I-iEll created tbese flaws. The river did not have time to equilibrate with the SV'R}' Aquiier betwern flow
regimes.
Sorne of the sites were ea:amined to deizrmine floNN, needs for spawning and incubation (Starr Road Bar,
Narvard Ra3d, Peace[ul Valley and Evcrgreen Streei) and some were. examined for rearing nertls
(AqcGuire Pari:, Carbin Pazl;, Barker Road, Sullivan glide and Sullivan casc2de).
General conclusions for rainbow trout spawnine and incubation:
• Based on PHABSIIvt modeling, spawning (March to April) area at Starr Road Bar }'a}:s befv.oeen
7,5000 and 11,000 efs and Harvard Road spawming area peal:s betwern 7,000 dnd 8,500 cfs.
• Useable spav►rning area drops rapidly at flows below --5,000 cfs at Harvard Road.
• Useabl: spawning area drops most rapidly bet-ween 6,000 and 5;000 cfs at Starr Road 33ar.
• lncubation (anproximately April 1- May 31) is most effective if flow remains ncar spavkming flow,
thus preventing dewatering of redds.
• Available incubatican area at Harvard pla#eatis at about 6,000 efs and drops sharply belwv 4,500 cfs.
• Available iTicubation area 3t Starr Road Bar declines steeply as flow falls helow, 7,000 cfs.
• The WashinD on State Departmen4 of Fish and VI'ildlife and others generally believc the incubation
flow is accPptable if either it (a) is 2/3 oC spawning flow or (b) can be demonstrated to keep the
spawning area wet.
• Almost no sPawning habitad is avaiiable at Peacyful Vallcy with flox belmv 6000 cfs.
• A.bout half the potential spa«m.i.ng area at Everrreen Road is available at 5000 cfs.
• Avista and the Fisheries resources agenc.ics should continue to collaborate on managing the power
generatinn aiid spillway operations to maintain a near constani flow in the A2iddle Spokane R.iver
beYwc,en the end of spawning and t}ie end of incubation.
General conclusions for juvenile and aduJi rainbow trou?l rearing:
• Little loss of rearing habit is seen witti decreasing flow at the IvlcGuire and Corbin Park siles. Thc
currsnt flow releases at Post Falls HED are probably adequate for trout rearing
• 1"he Barker sit:e provides better habitat for juve.niles tha.n adulu.
•At the studied transect at Barker, 200 cfs provides good habitat for juveniles.
• At the studied transect at Barker, 500 cfs pravides good habitat for adults.

• The Sullivan sites provide summer temperature refugc f.or trout during low flow periods. '
• At the Sullivan sites, 150 to 200 cfs provides optimum habitat for both adult and juvenile trouL
• Tle Post Falls KED sbould be managed to achieve about 200 efs at the Sullivan sites dw*ing the
summer low flnw period, ta}:ing into account the potential temperature effect of using lake water for
flow augmentalion.
The Hardin-Davis study devcloped flow relationships between the Post Falls HED and the Post Falls
reach sites for this study. Because the river and the aquifer did not have time to equilibraYe, using ]onger
term data would create more accurate flow relationships. The USGS has data available for daily average
flow at the Post Falls, Otis Orchazds, and Greenacres gagE;s for the 1999 - 2003 watcr ycars. These data
sets can be used to better define the flow relationships between the operations at thc Post FaLis HED and
at the habitat study sites. .
Middle Spokane River Instream Flow Needs for Uses otfier than Aquatic Biota
In addition to supporting aquatic biota the Spokane River provides for several othcr instream beneficial
uses. These include Aesthetics and Recreation, VJater Quality and Hydropower Production. As part of
their relicensing effort for the Spokane River Project, Avista has generated information on some aSpects
of all of thm issue,s.
Acstbetics and Rccreation
For aesthetic purposcs the criteria for the Spokane River is to have total flow adequate to providti water to
wet the majority of the north channel through Riverfroni Par4:. The total flow should alsa provide for
maintaining the current daytime ilow of 200 cfs over the Monro:: Sireet spiilway.
j ,
The Louis Berger Gmup, I»c. provided a report to the Avista Ke(icensing Recreation, Land Use and
Aesthet7cs work grnup on whitewater recrcatinn in the SpoF:ane Itiver (2004). The Spokane River
provides excellen# whitewatcr boating opportunities with bpth river nms and park-and-play areas. Access
to most play area.s or river rcaches is relaiively easy and, in mosi c<zses, just minute,5 f.Tom downtown
Spokane. In addition, paddlers can enjoy the whitew2tPr resources for the vast snajority of the year.
f,dditional %,thiCewaier opportur►ities would be increases by providing Post Falls flow data online, by
impmving access at some sites, by adjusting releases within the 2,000 to 5,000 cfs range to meet the prefened flows, or by providing additional recreational releases during summer months. The relative
beneits of additioclal summer time releases must be weighed against the effects on water levels, water
quality, and water availability.
Spol:ane Fiivcr Water Quality
The primary flow criteria for water quality in the Spokane River is for wastewater discharge ffianagement.
Water quality requirements in wastewater discharge permits are generally based on the dilution capacity
of the recE;iving water at a prescribed mini.mum flow. The higher the m.inimum flow, thc less difficult it is
to meet water quality requiremcnt~. The overall goal for this component of the instream flow
recommendation is to minimize waslewater treatsnent costs while maintaining desirecl strem quality.
Hydropowcr .
Tfie goal for hydropowcr flows is tn provide enough water to fiilly operate thc smallest power plant on the
Spokane River in WRIA 57 throu;,rhoLit the year.

Ntany storage conecpts were consiclered foF application in the first phase, these included:
• Wetlanci and riparian storage enhancement,
• Surfa::e water reservoirs,
• Infilvation ponds,
• Capture and inffltration of run-off:
• 1,41aiural grounduuter sipr-age/managemenl,
• AquiSer Storaee and Recnvery,
• SurfaeF• recharge.; injection and wetland discharge of reclaimed water for streamfiow

withdrawn during periods of high demand or for emergency use. T'his water resource manasement too]
has the potential of providing aoditional waier for out of stream uscs wiih minimal irnpacts on
streamflow. 7b$ I.flwer Sand and Gravel Aquifer in the region of the coniluenu of Deadman Creek -with .
the Little Spokane River was identi.fied a5 a candidate aquifer for storage. The source water being
~ considercd is 2rounciwater from the H:illyard Trough area of the Spol:ane Valley Rathdrum Frairie
{SVR}') Ayuifer. Existino wells ancl traTUmission facilities would be used to wiehdr-aw the source water,
transport it through existing municipal distribution facilities, and recbarge it into the target aquifer. The
~VRIA 55 57 Watershed A!(aziagement 1'lan Draft2 2-16-2005.dac 41
stored water is intenderi for meeting existing and/or future domastic sum.mcr peaF; demand, and/or
minimizing impacts to streamflow from pea}: summet withdrawals. Any lea}:age of stored water would
result in the augtnentaLion of streamflow.
The Whitworth Water District #2 overlies both the source aquifer (Hillyard Trough) and the recharge
aquifer and might need additional instantaneous water right capacity in the next five to ten years, but has
sufficient annual water right capacity far the next 20 years. Obtaining additional instantaneous water
right capacity through the issuance of new water rights is uncertain. An ASR pragrazn may more easily
provide the needed mitigation to allow allocating additional instantaneous capacity.
The assessment indicates that:
l Hydrogeologically, the Lower Sand and Gravel Aquifer in the vicinity of the confluence of
Deadman Cree}: with the Little Spokane River remains a candiclxte for receiving water in an ASR
program. The aquifer is confined and well bounded. The primary variable of least confidcnee is
the degree of hydraulic continuity between this portion of the aquifer and the rest of the SVRP
A.quifer along State Roate 2 in the vicinity of Mead.
2 The source aquifer (i.e., the Hillyard Tmugh portion of the SV1ZP Aquifer) is a sustainable
seasonal (winter-spring) source ofwater for ASR.
3 The quality of the source and receiving waters appear compatible.
4 Fxisting infrastructure is well configured for ASR Higfi capacity gxoundwater wells are operated
by the Whitworth WD#2 in both the source and recharge areas. Transmission capacity (i.e.,
intertie) between the proposed source and recharge wells exists, and may be sufficient to conduct
a pilot test. Expansion of the transmission capacity in the next two years is planned and will
improve the ability of the system to mdintdin an ASR program.
5 There m2y be a need for additiona] instantaneous water right capacity.
6 There is sufficient annuat watE:r ri,ght capacity under which to operats an AS.R program ttlat may
dllosv the exercise of additional instantaneous water right capac;ity.
IIased on the findings of this sfudy, ASR appears lo be a viabie conecpt for increasing 2he instantarieous
water right capaciiy needed to provide for projected increase in municipal water demand.
Potential New Surface Water Reservoir on Beaver or Buck Creek (WRIA 55)
Surface storage reservoirs were considered in VJRIA 55 to retain peak flows to release later for summer
stream #7ow augmentation. Streamflow augmentation objectives devclopad by the Planning Unit inctuded
augmentation of existing flaws as weli as prevention of further detriment due to exercise of junior, future
or inchoate water rights.
A number of surface sWrage locarions were evaluated in the First Step storage assessment based on
available published literature regard.i.ng the geolagic, soil, ar►d hydrologic conditions of areas as well as
the length of strcam llow benefit, potential habitat (aquatic and tenestrial) impact, and water quality
impacts.
To facilitate a comparative analysis of site poYendal, a target annudl reservoir storage of 4,750 A.F was
useci, which is approxirr►ately thc projected impact r+esulting from fiil.l exercisc of existing inchoate wnter
rights. "1'his volume is capable of au~,jmenling streamflows with approxi.mate]y 25 cfs for ttvee rnonths.

Saltese Flats Restoration
J
Saltese Flats (FlaLs) is evaluated in this report for mulciple purposes of: wetland testoration, mihanced
groundwater recharge for streamflow auD«mentation fi-om seasonal siorage, and as a potential sitc for
rec}aimed water discharge. The Flats is located in the southwestem port.ion of VVRiA 57, in a rapidly
developing area just south of the City of Spokane Va11ey and west of Libcrty Lake. lt was once a
seasonal shallow lalce, wetland system that was drained in the early 1900's for agricul2ural purposes, and
is now used for agricutture, stock and sdme recreation. Residential development is encraaching upon the
historical wetland area. Both the National Wetlands Inventory and the Spokane County Critical Areas
Ordinance de.signate it as wetlands.
'I'he Flats presents a unique opportunity for a multi-faceted project with benefits including:
storage/strcamilow augmentation, water quality improvement, wctlands restoratioq reclaimed water
polishing, open spacc preservation, habitat enhanccment and educa6onal benefits. Currently, undisturbed
portions nf the flats are used by migr-aiory wlter fowl, raptors, mammals and amphibians i.ncluding state-
]isted endangered, threatened and candidate species. Restorarion is expected to provide a significanl
increase in habitat available to such species.
The predicted natural inflow hydrograph to the Flats from Saltese and Quinamasc Creek:S peaks in the
winter and/or early spri.ng. Currently, this water is directed to ditches and, primarily, passeti throubh the
Flats to Shelley La}:e for infiltration, with some diversions for irrigation and small storaoe projects.
Restoration of tlie Flats to a seasonal lak-e will result in a sh.ift in t}te hydrograph of watcr flowing out of
the Flats from the majority of discharge occurring in the wintcr and early spring dwing pea}; flows to
discharge and infiltration from the Flats occurring in a more distributed manner throughout the yeas and
with greater discharges during the laie spring and possibly into the summer.
The historic state of the Flats as a seasonal la}:e indicates it has inherent potcntiat for seasona] storage.
Available site data indicate that the systcm is restnrable; howevcr development and zonine rnay limit the
fulfllment of restoration f.'or specific purposes. Streamflow augmentation to the Spokane River would
occur through increased groundwater levels and recharge in the area surrousidi.ng the Flats and Shelley
La.ke, which receives the outflow from the Flats. Shelley Lake is located directly over the SVRP Aquifer.
The Flats, however, appcar to be loc.ated over a low permeabif.ity layer which prevents rapid infltration
and therefore results i n storage of inflows. Existing data is insufficient to confidently dcfine the rate of recharge through the Flats, and the extent of
hydraulic connectivity with the SVRP Aquifer. The rate of recharge in the Flats will ultimately cietermine
thc ratio of water storead and released as surface discharge to Shelley Lake versus the quantity which
infi}trates directly through the FIaLs. This rate will also influence the storage size necessary to retain
inflows in the Flats. However, in terms of streamflow augmentation surface water wiuch recharges at
either Saltese Flats or Sbelley L,ake is expected to have benefits to Spokane River flows through increased
discharge to the river in gaining reacbes, such as downstream of Sullivan Road, and potentially decreased
losses in lnsing river reaches.
Saltese Flats restorafion wa.c cvaJuated in two steps, first for habitat using catisting natural inflows, and
second using the addition of reclaimed water. Tal:ing into accouirt patential rF;strictions to restoration,
physical conditions, and goals, three configuration options were developed to bracket the system's
potential: 1. Restorilion of the seasonal shallow lal:e systcrn (sea.sonal lacustrinc system) usinp
topography to eontain seasonal water. °I`his would involve t}he nurahase of some areas zoned
for future urban development. This option is estimatcd to have staragc potential of
approxi►nately 11,400 t1F, and a surfacc area of approximatcly 1,200 acrPs.

Total annual riatural inflow to the Flats is estimated to range from 8,800 AF to 1.5j700 .AF. A water
baiance for thc Flats indicates that, after talcino into account loss:.•s to evaporation and recharge ta the
5VK.P Aquifer, these volumes can be almdst fully contained under the first two canfgurations. This
would result in an estunated monthly averaze recharge t.o the SVR.P Aquifer, between July and Occober,
of b:.•tween 1 l w 35 cfs depending on the cdnfiguration and the climatic year. T'he thi.rd cpnfguration is
inu:nded primarily for habitat enhancemenc and prescrvation, not as a rnanag;.ablc storage sysiem, and
rnost of the inflow wnuld be immediately discharoed. Evaparation and plani transpiration ir the tiiird

CHAPTER 3 WATER AVAILABILITY
,
Introduction
There ara many ways to considar water availability. One way is to detertni.ne if enough 'mater exists in the
watershed to supply the needs of the population in the area. Most of the vvater used in PJRIAs 55 and 57
cames from groundwater and the majority of the people in the VVR1As receive water from aquifers in sand
and gravcl_ Currzntly, these aquifers do not appeaz to be in danger of running out of water. Water lsvels
may drop seasonally and/or during drought years, but rebound when precipibfion increases, In the largest
of these aquifers, the Spokane Valley - Itathclrum Prairie (SVRP) Aquifer, there is no current indication
of an overall reduction i_n water levels over timc. There: are, however, limited areas within VMIAs 55 and
57 wbere groundwater lcvels have dropped, areas where water has to be imported to sustain the
population, and areas where water is not reasonably available. Typically, wells lacated in these areas are
drilled into rock or fine-grained sedimcnts, or some other factor limits grotmdwater availability.
Another way to consider if water is available is to determine if water is likely to exist in cxcess of the
quantities currenily allocated to existing beneficial uses, including the minimum instream flow for fish.
One of the thrse primary tasks outlined for watershed planning under Chapter 90.82 RCW is evaluation of
the amount of unappropriated or available water in the watershed. Where minimum instream flows have
been set, those flows need to be maintained and protected. Any water above the minimum instream flow
requirement is considered excess waier in the hydrologic system that may be allocated as new water rights
without conditions. Even if it has been determined that water is not availxble, Ecology mav allocate new
water rights if mitigation is dane to offset the impacts of the new water rights. One ta,.~k of Watershcd
Planning is to develop such strategies for mitigation. 'lfie feasibility of implementing mitieation
measures depends Iargely on the acccptabiliTy of the costs to the water rights appticant.
A water right specifically defines where water can be pumpPd and used, as well as the maximum pumping
rate and tata] allowable annual vc,lume. Fiistorically, water right applications werc processad on an
individual hasis aricl did not account for the total volume of waier a1lncated within in the watershed. The
current status of thE,se waCer rights is unknown because some of the water a1lQCated is no iongcr used.
Ac;cording to Chapter 90.14.160 RCW, `any pcrSOn entitled to the use of water ...who abandons or
voluntarily fails, without sufficieat cause, to beneficially use all or any part oi said water right to divert or
withdraw for any period af five consecutive years after July l, 1967, sha11 relinquish such right or gortion
thereof and said right or portion thereof shaLl reverc to the state...and be available for further
appropriacion. However, this "use it or IQSe it" policy does not apply to municipal water rigrts. Because
they have an obliDation to serve urban growth (Chapter 43.20.260 RCV), municipal water rights holders
are allowed to keep their full H^ater right regardless of whether they used the total volume in any five-year
period. Currently, less than half of the 97,740 million gallons per year (300,000 acre-feet/year) of
municipal water rights in VTRIAs 55 and 57 ane actuaify beinD pumped.
Attaining minimum instream tlows both in the Little and Spokane Rivcrs is a criteria for allocating new
water rights from the SVR.P Aquifer because the SVRP Aquifer spans both watershcds and the Little and
Spokane Rivers are interconnected with the SV1tP Aquifer. In the lower Little Spokane Raver, and in
guning reaches of the Spdkane River betwccn the Greenacres gage and the Spokane gage, the SVR.P
Aquifer affects the river flows. A minimum iristream flow was set far four sites on the Little Spokane
River in 1976 (Chapter 173-555 WAC). No minimum instrF:am flows cx.ist for the Spoka,ne River however ttiis plan rec;ommends the cstablishment of a minirnum instream flow for the gage at Greenacres.
Meeting the min.i_mum instream flow durinb the sumrner at the Greenacres gage is primarily dcpendent on
the flow through the Pasl Falls HED and is not affected by water use in Washington. TiLking these factnrs
into eonsideration, this section of the V14'atershed }'lan assesses whether water is available for allacation in
eit.her WIZ[A 55 or 57_

Water Availability Information
Historica] river ilow data for the Spokane and Little Spokane Rivers are used ta assess wliether water is
avaiiable for new water rights by looking at flow trends ovvr time and cprnparing flows to the minimum

Ecology in collaboration with the Washington Departmen't of Fisb znd Wildlif (VVDF\k0 rccommended a
minicnum instream f.low of 2000 cfs for the Spokane River at the Spol:ane eage in 1999. '1'his flow was

stresses tbai fiither data and deliberat.ions will be necessary before summer nunimum insxream ilow

Comparisons of current flows with the minimurn iiisveam flows set by rule. are us..•d to assess water
available for new watcr riehts in the Little Spnkane River. A minimum instream flow was set for the
Little Spo{:ane River in 1976 (Chapter 173-555 n'AC). Stucties conducced by Golder Associates in 2003
at Elk, Chattaroy, and near the At Dartford eage confirmed the ability of thP rnuumum insvearn fiows to

Modeled water use impacts.
Pumpine water within VTZLAs 55 a.nd 57 can retiuce the amount. of water in the Spokane and Litlie
SpokanP Rivers. Results from the PvILKE S}-TE model simulations predict past and future conditions and
rcmove the climats variable from the analysis by uuing 1994 to 1999 climate conditions for al.l scenarios.
Vdater u_ec is no9 evenly spread throughout the year. Pea1; pumping occurs during the summer months and
can be 3 times higher tha.n during the winier. Unfortunately, this is also when strearn flow is the lowest.
Pre-develupmcnt sceoario
Removing the water use impacts such as pumping: irrigation; and wastewater discharge simulates
conditions before humans settled in the watersheds (pre-tlevciopment condicions). This computcr
simulation ,vas run to compare how the watershed system behaves without human impacts to current and
potential future conditions. "fabie 3.D compares the results of this model simulation to the pea.k i.mpact
~ resutts of the three other model simulations described below. EfFects for ihe Little Spokane Watershed
are shown at the g3gc Ai Dariford because numeriGal instabilities downstream of 1,his gage limit the
confidene:e in the sin3ulated Ilows.

Modelcd currcnt R'RIA 55 and VVRiA 57 water use (1994 to 1999)
The largest uscs of waler for the combined WRIAs 55 and 57 arc municipal/domestic (41,700 million
gallons per ycar or 12$,000 acre-feet per year); commerciaUindustrial (12,700 million galJons per year or
39,000 acre-feet per year); exempt weUs (3,100 million gallons per year or 9,600 acrc-feet per year); and
agricultural irrigation (2,400 million gallons per year or 7,500 acre-fee# par year). Peai: purnping in the
model for PJRIA 57 occurs in July and August at abaut 360 cfs (232 million gallons Fer day (mgd)). The
pcak streamflnw change in the Spolcane River at the Spokane gage is 206 cfs (133 mgd) in August,
indicating a very quick impact of groundwater pumping on streamflaw at the Spol:ane gage. Minimum
(winter time) pumping equates to aboui 100 cfs (65 mgd) with approximatcly the same amount of change
in the flow at the Spol:ane gage. Pea}: pumping for RrRIA 55 is about 28 cfs (18.1 mgd) and minimum
pumping is about 13 cfs (8.4 mgd). The peak monthiy decreass in streamflow is about 13 cfs (8.4 mgd)
in January, fve monttis after peal: pumping. T`he minimum decrease in streamflow of about b cfs (4 mgd)
occurs in June and July. "1'his represents a significant lag time between pumping and its effects on
streamflow.
Year 2020 Projection (20 Year Growth Scenaria)
Table 2.II3 shows the annual projected demand increase for the year 2020 scenario. The projected
increase in groundvvater pwnping from the 1994 to 1999 baseline in WRIA 57 is 86 cfs or 36 mgd during peal: summer pumping and approximately 20 cfs (13 mgd) during minimum pumping periods (winter).
The projected avera?e increase in pumping in VJR1A 55 equates to 15 cfs (9.7mgd) in the summer and 1.5
cfs (1 mgd) in the winter months.
The 2020 scenario suggests the Spokane R.iver flow at the Spokane gage decreases approxirnately an
additional 50 efs (323 mgd) in the summer and 25 cfs (I6.] mgd) in the winter. Between 7 anc! 13 cfs
(4.5 to 8.4 mgd) of the additional lost flow is retumed downstream by the City of Spokane's Advanced
WastewaCer Trzahnent PIanL There is no signific,ant lag time between when peak pumpino occurs and
wfien the g.reatest decrease in flows occurs.
Full Municipal Waler Rig6b (-Inehoate SceQario)
The i.nchoate scenario simulates groundwater withdrawals that may occar under the full exercise of aU
allocated municipal waier rights. Inehoate rights aze the portion of mwticiFal water rights not currenlly in
use and reserved for future use. Current pumping of municipaVdomestic water rights is about 47,200
million gallons per year (145,000 acre-feet pet year). With the inchoaie water rights, pumpin,g would
increase to azoimd 97,740 million gallons per year (300,000 acre-feet per year). The average reduction in
Spokane River flow at the Sgokane gauge is 150 cfs (96.9 mgd) with a maximum reduction during the
mid-to-late sammer of about 250 cfs (161.5 mgd) and a minimum reduction of about 100 cfs (64.6 m{;d)
during the winter. .
The SVRP Aquifer has the most municipal inchoate water rights in both WRIA. 55 and VJTtIA 57. The
interconnection between the SVRP Aquifer and the Spokane River in WRIA 57 is so strong that thcre is
an immediate response in river flovvs after pumping of the SVRP Aquifer begins. The lack of a lag time
and impacts on river flow are a result of the high hydraulic conductivity of the SVRP Aquifer and
interconnection with the Spokane River.
Tt1e inlerconnection betwmn the Little Spo}:ane River acicl underlying aquifer(s) is not as strong a-q
evidenced by a time lag of thrt:e-to-four monfhs after pumping of the aquifer begir►s. 'I7ie lag time
between peak withdrawals and assoeiateti peak reduction of stream flows suggests the c:auses are the

Full cxercise of inchoaie water rights is predicted to reducte the average annual flow of die l.,itile. Spol:ane

Conclusion
'Ihe Planning Uait vicws the watershed planning and implsmentation process as an on-€oine, acihptive,
iocal consensus procc;s, to identify reo onal water needs, identi.fy poten#ial \vater available, identify
reasonablc solutions to timing, quantity, and in some cases water qualit}, issues, and fnally do tlus while
keeping vvater costs apnropriate.
It is rec;ognized that there are fE;deral, state, and local regtalations goveming water issues and it is
recognize.d that th°Se. rt:quiremenis ofrtcn havti some fleaihility. For caample, the Siate of VJashington
requires its water resource agencies io protect and enhanc° fish habitat, but there can be a a eat deal of
di5cretion in enllancement. 'I"his Fianning Uc1i# has not fuliy inves4igated ft needs of fish throughout the
watersbeds, aithough we have done invcstigations in areas that resource agencies have identified s most
eriticaL Furiher work will be necessary, xs described i.n the recotnmendations section, both b:,•low
Sullivan Road on the Spokane and below Uartford on the Lirtle Spol:ane with regard to identifying the
water ner•ds for fish.
Before questions on H^ater availability and cost can be better answered, cpntinued research will be
necessary to provide the practica] technic3l solutions so the signifcant issues identifiad that remain
outstanding in reoard to determining wate.r a-vailability, especially wich the uncertainties that are rooted in
demand (both tiere and in ]daho), cLimate change, futum. local decision maltin~; and legal righu. Rjater
supply -will, in all probabitity, come at a higher cost in the fuhue than it does now. Jn addition, finding
Eechnical st►lutions to the problems identified, and having public acceptanec of the same is not guaranteed.
1n addition, public priarities need to be further clarified with regard to conservation, instream flows,
utility costs, water quality goals 'for sw'faeP water and ground~Vater, land use prioritics, acceptability of
kVRU155 57 4ti'atershed Nianagement Plan'17raFt'22 2-15-2005.doc 55
potential technieal solufions, validity of water riglits, etc. The intent of the recommendations in this plan
is to guide and furthcr us all along toward answers for these difficuli qu;stions.
Regarding the need to set minimum instream flows for WR.IA 55 and 57, along with the adjoi.ning NVRIA
54, the Planning Unit understands the neccssily to continue working with the Departinents of Ecology and
Fish and Wildli.fe, and the WRLA 54 VVatershed Planning Unit to ensure that a eollaborative process is
upheld to help set mi.nimum flows. 'Ihe primary goa1 for setting the mi.nimum instream flows is to
balance both the instream and out-of-stream needs, in accordance with Chapter 90.82 RCM for these
watersheds.
As additional technieal informarion becomes available, collaborative solutions are develoPed, and
minimwn instream flows are agreed uFon and set, the Plaoning Ljnit will necad to incorpocate the results
into the WRIA 55/57 Implementation Plan and future updates of the NVRIA 55/57 Watershed Plan.

Planning Unit deems necessary or desirable for fut:urE: watcc needs in the 5pol:ane wat.ershecis. hacYi
watershed has its own issiiE:s and ttierefore these recbmmenaations are specinc tn these watersheds..
Preceduio sections of this document have outl'ened the general goals of waiershed plun.ing, the technical
basis for decisian-mal;ing and a suxnrnary of the current sratus of the resource. One of the tAOls u.sed to
support decision-ma:ing was the M]-F:F SHL- computer model of the surfacz- and ground w•ater of both
uatenheds. This model; wlnich is m:,•ntioric;d in th.is chapix:r, is described in Chapter 2.
In the course of developing ttvs sectic►n, eight l;ey action areas -were idenrified; tbe recommended actions
are organi'r.ed undPr thes• action arcas. 'Nk'tule the eighi key action areas are listed in a general order of
prioriry, the palicies, issues and rf:commendations writhin thern are not. The Policy, ]:ssue and
Recommended Action elements arc genecaliv listed in the order they were brought up by the Planning
Unit or Work Groups.
Fecomrnended actiotas prescnted herein do not necessarily rE:present obligations on the paP of tbe
panicipating agencies. Obligations and recUmmendations are specifcally defineci in the Implementation .
Ahatrix as presented in Chanter 5: Implementatiqn. For recommended aetiAns that are identified a.s

1. Water Conservation, Reclamation and Reuse
Backgrnund
Conservation, reclamation and reuse are the easiest ways of extencling the availabiliiy of water.
Implementing meassures to accomplish one or more of these allaws the user to do more with the same
amount of water. The terms conservation. reClamation and reuse all have legal a,nd / or quasi-legal
definitions tha# are too limiti»g for the purpose of dus discussion. For the purposv hcre, the following
definilions apply:
Cc,nservation: .Applyi.ng meastires tk►at reduce the amtiunt of water consunied to perform a defined
task.
~--Reclamation: Adequaiefy and reliably treating wastewater so that as a result of that trealmebt it is
suitable for a bene icial use or a controlied use that would nqt othervtve occur and is no ]onger
- 'considered %va„stewater.
VdRLA 55 57 Watershed A4anagement I'lan Dra. 2-16-2005_doc 57
Reuse: Applying waier that has been used, with or without treatment, to a second beneficial use.
The water qualiiy requirements of the follow up use are benerally lower than that for thc initial use.
Waier purveyors, industrial and commercial well owners, and public and private enrities tbat irrigate
substantial areas fram on-site wells (parks, schools, cemeteries, golf courses ete.) provided total amounts
of water pumped (Table 41A). R'ater use amounts for several categories of use were divided by the
2000 U.S. census data fpr the servics area of the users to obtain a dvly per capita water use Sgure. The
water use data are presented in units of acre feeUyear, million gallons/day, and cubic feet per secnnd for
. comparison. The total amount of water pumped for all uses indicate a year around average production of
water of approximalely 327 gallons per person per day. During the winter municipal water producfion is
about 157 galloas per person pcr day. During the peal: water use months of July and AttgusL the water
production increases to approximately 700 galJons per persfln per day. These data indicate there is a
signiScant increase in water use during the summer above the ysar round basc water use far indoar use.
The increase in water use is most lilcely caused by irrigation of lawns and gardens.

II. Instream Flow Needs for the WRIA 57, the Middle Spokane Watershed
1
Bac4-round
Under a cooperative agreement with Spo}:ane Couniy and Avista Utilities, Hardin - Davis conducted
analysis of spawming and incubation habitat for tainbow trout in the Spokane River betwecn Post Falls
and the confluence with Latah (Hangman) Creek. The instream flow studies were coordinated with the
Avista relicensing stakeholders fsheries group. Members of the Planning Unit gavc input to the Avista '
FERC relicensing process that will affec# minimum instream flows and spawning and emergence flow management. •
Rearing habitat for rainbow trout was analyzed between Post Falls and just downstreatn of Sullivan Road
in the Spokane Valley. Physical Habitat Simulation (PHABSIM) of the Instrearta Flow Incremcntal
Methodology (IFI[vn was used to model how habitat changed throug,h different flows.
Residsnt trout in the Spokane River maintain a self sustaining population between Spokane Falls and the
Post Falls ]7am. These two cndpoints limit immigration into this section of the river. Instrcam flows to
protecf spawn'tng, incubation, and rearing babitat are ne:ded tn perpeiuate the population. All life stages
are essential, but flow is most lil:ely to limit these populations. Because of th-- need to protw more than
one life stagre, a variable flow regime that reflccts the seasonal variability of water in the region is a
dr-sired feature of an instream flow rule. The instneam flow proposals for sgavvning and incubation cover
the Spo},-ane River from Post Talls to the canflaence with Latah (Hangman) Creek. The rearing instream
proposals cover the portion of the Spokane River from Post Falls HED to Bark-er Road.
Rainbow irout spawning occurs in the spring, primarily in April, during spring runoff: These flows are
largely unregulated_ They determine where spawning will occur. In a high runoff year spawning will be higher on the gravel bars and in a low ruripff year spawning will be lower on the gravel bars. Once fish
spawn, eggs are at the location where spawning occurred and procluction from thosc Eg„tTs depends on
incubation conditions through the remainder of the spring incubation se.ason, through the end of the first
wsek in June, as the spring runoff reccades. To the extent possible, the rate of decline of sprinD runoff
should be mirumized within the incubation periocf (Beecher and otbers, 2004).
'T'he rest of summer and into the fall Avista cantrols the flow in the Spokane River with the Post Falls
HED. Flow in the river is needed for fry (newly emerged fish that occupy shallow edge habitat), young-
of-the year juveniles tha# behave more lil:e older jwenilcs (juvenile I), juvenile IIs (at least 1 year old),
and adults who cocxist and contribute to production and recrearional value. Older fish (juvenile Ils and
adults) reyuire the most territory and have already survived through critical life history stages. Providing
habitat for oldsr juvenile and adult trout will also maintain considerable habitai for fry and young-of-the-
year. At the same time, emphasis on the older life stages will facilitaie segregation of the different life
stages, thereby minimizing habitat overla.p and poteniial cannibalism. Barker Road provides the highest
WUA per 1000 ft of stream for bodi juvenile 2 and adult rainbow trout. Table 4.11.A shows the fJow's at
Barker Road and the percent of maximum rearing habitat in the area for juvenile 2 and adult trout
Temperature effects, due to warm lake water releases, limit useable habitat at highcr flows.

species identified. Aecember and January for Mountain V1'hitefish, March and April for Rainbow Tmut.
2"[°he large cobble substrate at ths study site near EIk Park is not suitable for rainbow trout spawning.
In general, the existing miniTr,um instream flows in the I,ittle Spokane River mainstem appear to be
reas4nable for protecting babitnt of the Rainbow Trout and Motmtain Whitefish. Channel maintenanca
and riparian flows are also provided on a regular basis because hig}tcr flows in the Little Spoi:ane River
have not been reduccd by buman aciivity.
Tn addition to the three main stcm rcaches, [low / habitat co»clilions were evaluatcd fhr sites on threc
tributaries - Otter Creek, Dragoon and D:.•adman Creeks. These results show that the wetted perimeter ~
approach pmvides good habitat protection for rainhow trout adulis ancl jtiveniles and mountain whitvfish
fiy. For the othcr life stage / speeies coinbinations the babitat conclitionti ,it wet#ed perimeter flows are
poor to moderate. Using the wetted perimeter approach to estahlish instream flow mini_rna fnr the LSR
tributaries will not provicle good habitat.
The current minimum instream flows appear to also protect somc other existing beneficial uses such as
acsthetics and recreation. A separate process being led by the Spokane County Conserva6on District
addresses watcr quality issues and will develop a Water Quality Management Plan. Some of thc water
quality probleins that may be af.f'ected by fIow are: dissolved oacygen, temperahu-e, nutrients, turbidity and
saspended sediments. The I3cparlment of Ecology is allocating w^aste loads through the Total Maxiinum
Daily Load (TMDL) process.
Managemcnt practices used cucrently in the Little Spolcane River VVatershed due to the failure to meet the
minimum instream flow many ycars are (l) closing the hasin to any new water rights and (2) interrupting
jun.ior w-atf;r rights when the flow at Dartford falls below thc minimum instream ilow for seven
consecutive days. Asking all water rigiits holders in the basin to conserve water may help increase low
flows and reduce the need for these management practiccs. Any new managemcnt practices will need to
corLsider cost of implementation versus cest to the public, and consider priorities relating to minimum
flows (e.g., hiunan, fish, recreation) and the law.

% ~IV. Domestic Exempt Welts , i
Bacltground
Based on current land uses in the Little Spol:ane River basin there are apprnximatety 7,000 househo]ds
supplied by domestic exempt wells. These homes are estimated to use an average of 5.66 million gallons
per day. In terms of water use, domestic exempt and agricultural irrigation wells pump about equal
amounts of water in the basin. Unlike agricultural irrigation usy, which is closed to further anpropriation,
there is no limit imposcd by water rigbts on domestic exempt wells. With many vacant parcels where
exempt wells can be drilled i.n Spokane Counry alone, the potential for continued, impact on groundwater
is substantial.
• in some areas the density of exempt wells is high enough that in low recharge ycars, wells go dry. This
has led to the demand for the eatcnsion of public water supply to homes on the fringe of the urban area.
Often the cost of these extensions exceecis the income they can generate. With the Growth Maanagement
Act restricting new developrnent outside the UGA, t6ere is little incentive for water suppliers ta extend
water to these areas.

V. Water Rights and Claims

Current water riehLs and claims are evaluated by the Department of rcologywhen mal:ing dec:isipns on
wheiher to man', ncw wa#cr rigbts. Since only 3 small portion nf ihe Little Spokane Watershed and none
of thc Middle Spol:aiie Waters6e,d has been adjucticated to determine the actual quantities of valid water
righis, the quantit), of potentialt}' valid water righis and ciaims on file is siDmifc.,ant]y higher than tiie
current waeer u.se.
lnstream flows adapted by nile are similar to watcr rights in thai they are protected from impainnent from
tliose right; junior in priorit-v date to the instrmm flows. TleSe junior water n_ghts are interruptible when
flow in the scream faIls beiow the m.ini.mum instrea.m fiow. An intcrruptible waier riaht is nat accPptabie
for domcstic suppliers who need a long-term reliable arid predictable supply oi water. At the same time
the StatL of Washine-ton disoourates ihe devolopment of exempt wslls for muitiple dore►estic uses where
water supplies are dvailable irom public wa#er sysLems. Wtien floNs ar=. set hy rule; watersh::.d groups
and other sta}:eholclers frequentty see)c to have certain amounts of waier reserved for future uses that

VI. Strategies for Base Flow Augmentation
Baekcround
1n the Micidie Spokane aiid Little Spokane Pvver Watershetls over 70% of the precipitation c7ccurs as
snow and rain during tlie winter. As this sfored water melts in the spring milch caf it nuis off and r,auses a
ripid increase in stream flow, usually in the manths of April tlvough )unc. ln both watc:rsheds_ high
water use coincid:.•s with normal 1ow flow. lf more of this water could be held high in the watershed and
released slowly, spring runoff ncal:s would be lowered and summer low flows would be r'dised and more
water would be available for use by existing wells. NaCural forest, `rass}and and wetland ecosystems and
tmounawaler rescrvoirs all provide signifcant stora~e ihat might enhance summcr stream flo«~.
inhancino stnr~ag:.~ can be acc;omplishe~d tnrr~uah natural means or h+iman irnervention. Beaver dam.~, one
naturdi method, can havP botb positive and negative impae:cs; such as at Sacheen Lal:e along the Nest
Bich oi the Little Spol;ane River.
Fumping water from wells near gaining rzaches of the river durin~ iow flow periods reduces baseno~+~ at
the critical time. Maving the pumping away frorn the river during critica] times ma)' hetp increase
recharge to the river frain the aquifer.

VII. Strategies for Ground Water Recharge Enhancement
Background
Additional recharge to the aquifers of VVRIAs 55 and 57 may i.ncrcase streamflow during the low flow,
summer season or increase the amount of groundwater available for water supply. 1'here are several
methods t6si enhance recharge above natural conditions.
Stormwater infiltration results in approximately four times thc recharge to aquifers as natural conditions.
Managing stormwater so that most of it infiltraies rather than evaporating pr running to stuface mater will
take advantage of this extra recharge.
]3oth the Spokane and Litt1e Spakane Rivers often have spring runoff eenditions where flow is greater
than instream flow needs. Flow could be diverted to appropriate locations away from the rivers dwing
these periods to enhance groundwater rceharo
Reclaimed or reusecl water could also be used to recharge xquifers. This water which usually go directiy
to the rivers could enhance the groundwater for additional uses.

CH.APT'6R 5 IMPLEMENTATION 'i
Introduction
The recnmmended actions as presented in Chapter 4: Recommendations, are tabulated into the following
Implementation Matrix. The Implementation Matrix is intended to represent the initial thin(.ing of the
"who" and "whcn" with respect to the implementation of the recommended actions, as approved by
Planning Unit consensus. Thc WRT.A 55/57 Implementation Matrix includss the proposed riming of the
reeoxnmende:d actions and a preliminwy estimate of the anticipated levcl of effort by the participating
governments and agencies.
Obligations and recommendations are speci5cally defned in the Implementation Matrix.
Reeommendations specificalty denotetl as such do not represeni obligations on thc pari of the
participating govemments and agcocies. Further, for recommended aciions that are specifical.ly identified
as obligalions, no enfity can be required to implement the recommended action withouf their specific,
written consent. "Obligation", as dcfned in Chapter 90.82, Rcvised Code of Wasliington, R'atershed
Planning, means any action that imposes upon a tribal government, county government, state govemment,
or an organization volunfarily accepting such action, either: a fiscal impact; a redeployment of resources;
or a ehange of existing policy.
Implementation Matrix
The Implementation Matrix presentcti below, provides the preliminary outline for implementing the
recommended actions as presented in C1iapter 4. The Implementation Matrix identifies the participaiing
agencies and govcrnments, proposed timing, and a preli.m.inary estimate af the level of effart needed to
implement an action.
The Implementation Malrix includes three typ.-s of criteria. Fust, implementation accions are specifically
identified as recommendalions or obligations, as agrecd upnn by consensas of the Ylanning Unit and the
implementing age.ncies. Second, the propQSed timing of the implementation actions, as envisioned by the
pariicipaiinp govemments and agencies, arc identified. Third, the preli.minary• estimate of thc lcvel of
c.$ori required by the participating governments and agencies to implement the aetions, are identificd.
Table S.A defines the codes as presented in the Implementation Matrix to identify the proposed timing
and estimated level of e_ff.ort:

Implementation Matrix comments from Washington State Agencies
~
December 21, 2004
Re: Comments on the WR1A 55/57 Implementation Matrix
Thank you for the opportunity to review and camcnent on the VMJA 55/57 Implementation Matrix, This
lettcr documents the comments of both the Washington Department of k;cology (Ecoloey) and the other
state a.gencies signatary to the Memorandum of LJnderstanding for the Coordinnted Implementatlon of
A'utershed Manugement and Salmon Recovery Planning (1998).
Commerrts have ba8n formatted to identify first the section, policy, issue or strategy being addressed
using the coding from the matrix, and then the rcmar}:s of the state agencies. Thc matrix was reviawed
for agreement upon the policies, issues, and strategies in addition to the type of commitment (i.e.,
obligation or recommenclarion), priority, and level of effor[. It is important to understand that c,omments
relaied to the type of commitment were developed utilizing two pieces of the Watersbed Planning Act, the
meaning of obligation provided in Chaptcr 90.82.130 (6) Revised Code of Washington (RCR9 and the
actions associated with an obligation found i.n Chapter 90.82.130 (3) (a) RCV✓.
Comm ents
I.A.OI.d: Washington Department of Health (RrDOH) understands this strategy to be an obligation of
municipal water suppliers, and will provide technical assistance contingent upon available funding and staff resources. This strategy should be assignsd a priority ranking of 1 and a level of effort rating of A in
the column for the State oi'Washington.
L.A.02.g: Washington Deparhntint of Ccology has been implementing this strategy ihrough irrigation 1
effieiencies projects and the reclaimed water statutes. 11iis strategy should be considered a ~
recommendation, unless more specific actions are requested. 7°his strategy should be assigned a priority
ranking of 0 and a level of ef1'ort raiing of A in the colwnn for the State of WashinEton.
f,.C.O l.c: Earty involvement of state a;encies would facilitate identifying rzgulatory requirements. This
strategy appears to be a recommendation rather than an obligation. Also, ihis strategy should be assi;ned
a priocity ranki.na of 1 and a level of effort rating of A in the colwnn for the Staie of Washington.
II.A.Ol.a: Ecology a,erees with this obligarion, howevcr, the commitment to the scheciule for developing
an instream flow rule is contingent upon available staff and fundin Washington Department of Fish aild
Wildlife (WDFW) support a mi.nimum instream flow of 500 cubic feet for second (cfs) for the Spokane
River at Barker Road. R'DFW should not be identified as obligated to lead this action. R'DFVJ will
provide supporting technical assistance contingent upon available funding and resources. Tbis strategy
should be assigned a priority ranking of 2 and a level of efforl rating of A in the eolumn for the State of
VJashingtan.
ll.A.Ol.b: Ecology and WDFW support this recommendation. This strategy should be assigned a priority
ran.king of 0 and a level of effort rating of A in the cplumn for the StaCe of R'ashington.
II.A.OI.c: This recommendation is cansistent with fish management goals and represents what has been
agreed upon to date behveen WUFW, Tclatio Departinent of P'ish and Gamc, and Avista However, final
agreement will be contingent upon the final outcome of the Avista I=ERC Re-licensing process. This
strltegy should he assigned a priority ran}:ing of 1 and a level nf effort rating of A in the coliimn for the
Statc of Washington.

TI.I3.02.b: The stdtx: agcnLies agree to support the rE.commended straiegy. However; 'WDFR' is concerned
that providiny far recreaiional flows in the Middle Spokanne i:iver could conflict with esiablisEung and
rnaintaining minimum seasonal flows desiLmed to protect fish and useable habitat. Point-in-time
increases in flow to facilitate seasonal recreatianal interests cou3d produce nuisancs attractan4 ilows for

CITY OF SPOKANE VALLEY
Request for Council Action
Meeting Date: May 3, 2004 City Manager Sign-off:
Item: Check all that apply: El consenE ❑ old business ❑ new business ❑ public hearing
❑ informakion X admin. repon t~ pending legislation
AGENDA ITEM TITLE: i'avernsnt Cu't Polivy
GOVERNING LEGISLATION: NlA
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION TAKEN: A1 the April 5, 2005 siudy session, stati presented
inliormation on various pavement relatAd issues: including the draft pavement cut policy.
BACKGROUND:
Public Works - Initial Policy Review:
Spokane County ana fhe City of Spo4cane began development of a regional pavempni cui policy
in iall of 2003. The City of Spokane Valley was iniiially involved in the process; however, due to
staffing constrainis, the City oecided 'to review the policy once drafted. Spokane County and
City of Snokane are currently in the process of adopting the proposee policy.
~ The streets in the Ci:y of Spokane VaNsy are in significantly better conditifln ihan in the Ci#y oi'
Spokane, due to several fac-tors which include the existing utifity cu't standards we adopted as
par't of the County Rflad Siandards. The Ciiy of SpoE:ane has not had written utility cui
;tandards.
Public V1+orks has briefly reviewed the policy and has the followinq concerns:
. The policy is vague in many areas and will likeiy lead te differing interpretations among
the local agvncies and utility companies. 1Ne would 1ike to see clarifications to defined
responsibilities af several provisions and to the new tiered approach for determining
repair dimensions.
• The policy is moderately complex with four tier levels based on the age of the street and
five diftereni categories ai streets. Additionally, the policy is data intensive in regard to
tracking utility cui information and warranty requirements.
. Althougti tihe draft policy includes the word LLmoratorium" for streets less than three years
old, its description results in no utilify cu# moratorium on new sireets. Our current
adopfed Spokane County Raad Standards do not allow cutfing or trenching in roads for
five yaars unless it can bs shown tha# alternatives are noQ available. Possible
alternativzs are boring, jac.king, relocating outside the paved area, or installing the utility
before construction or overfay of the road. I recommend that we continue our current
five year moratorium policy.
• Under the matrix on page nine, the modi ied policy is allowed on minor arterials and
collector arterials over six years old and on principal arterials over ttivelve years old. This
policy a11Qws joints at the centerline of lanes. I recornrnend that all arterials be cUt to the
lane line and t'hat no cuts be allowed tQ 'the center of lanes. This recommendation is
cansistent wifh our curren# poiicy.
• Under the matrix on paae nine, trench only is allowed in minor arterials and collector
arterials over 12 years old. The policy states on page nine under °TrEnch Only" thai ii
aoes not aIlaw longifudinal joints in the wheel path. There is no exhibit showing the
examples of hovd this policy would be irnplemented. I recflrnm$nd that all arterials be cui
to the lane line and that no cuts be allowed to the center of lanes. This recommendation
is consisfent with our current policy. `A more detailed review can be performed by Public Works if Council wishes to pursue the
implementation and enforcement of this policy.
Cornmunity Development - Initial Implementation and Enforcement:
See Attachment #3
OPTIONS: Implement the pavement cut poficy as proposed; Recommend changes to the
proposed policy; Continue with existing policy; Amend existing policy.
RECOMMENDED ACTION OR MOTION: Provide feedback and direction to staff. Staff
recommends continuing with the existing policy until further analysis can be conducted.
BUDGETIFINANCIAL IMPACTS: Staff estimafes three additional employees would be
required to implement and enforce the draft policy, at an additional cost of about $170,000 (see
Attachment #3). There are additional start-up costs, such as database creation, which have not
yet been estimated.

Tstimate ofActual Puvement Cut Volairne
As we began cqmparing our ROW pcrmit activity to that of Spokane County aua the Cicy
af Spokaue, we noted that our activity was abnormally low in comparison, The City of
Spokane estimatFs about a 7,300 per year permit volume, and an annual lZOW permit
revcnuc of $300,000 - $420,000.
Spokane Valley's Esiimated permits are only aboul ] 6.4% of Spokane's, when one would
e_apect it to be abAUt 40% based upon our relative size. We're gathering addi"tional
infc,rmation to dererni-i.ne if there are othcr mitioatung factors. ~Iowever, usi.ng the 40% as
a gaugc; Spolcane Valley's accual pavemcnt cut acfiirity may be closer to 33,000.

lmpact of Pronosed Policv
The proposcd policy is ni ore data intensive to administer.
Staff °stimates an additioalal thrEe staff posdtians are needed to ir,gpler-nen; this policy:
0 One atiditinnal Fermit Specialist
• One additional Constcuction Tnspcctor
• One position, c]assification to be determitiecl, to manage the associated database
Comparison of Stuffing
We are still coiupiling and clarifying information from Spokane County and the City of
Spol:aile to make sure we havc true comparisons. However; Spokane County has 5-7 F"CE for ROW permit[uig and inspection, anci the City of Spokwie has 6-7 FTE. These
compare to Spokane Valley's 1.2 FTE. Both the City of Spokane azid Spolcane County
have said they cion't anticipate adding additional staff in order to implement the proposed
policy.

Current Facility Inventory
This section of the Capital Facilities Plan includes transporiation facilities that Spokane
County is responsible for providing, including roads, bridges, pathways and sidewalks.
Maintenanc,s is not included as a part of the Capital Facilities Plan.
Spokane County's road inventory consists of 2,946.7 miles of gravel and paved public
roads. 1"his equates to 82.2 miles of urban principal arterials, 89.0 miles of urban minor
arterials, 79.5 miles of urban collector arterials, 516.9 miles of urban access roads, 180
bridges, and 670.4 miles of rural artcrial roads and 1,508.6 miles of niral access roads.
Tables T-1 through T-5 include an inventory of Spokane County's arterial intersections,
along with their current and 6-year projected Level of Service. An inventory of arterial
roads, state highways, trails, transit services, airports and railroads is contained in Draft
Plan 2000, page T-10 through T-27.
Level of Service The Grow-th Management Act (GMA) requires jurisdictions to adopt Level of Service
(LOS) standards for both highway and transit services. The GMA requires that each
jurisdiction's LOS standards be coordinated within the region and be supportcd by local
regulations.
Spokane County has adopted Level of Service (LOS) standards for urban arterial
~ intersections w-ithin the Urban Growth Boundazy. This level of service is based upon t
travel delay and is eacpressed as letters "A" through "F," with "A" being the highest or
best travel condition and "F" bcing the lowest or worst condition. The lowest acceptable
level of service for signalized (S) arterial intersections has been set at "D." The lowest
aGCeptable level of service for unsignalized ([n arterial intersections is "E." This
standard for LOS conforms to the latest edition of the Highway Capaciry Mairual, Special
Report 209, published by the Transportation Research Board.
Regional Levels of Service -
The Countywide Planning Policies require that LOS standards be adopted in accordance
,Arith tbe regional minimum level of service standards set by the Growth Management
Steering Committee of Elected Officials. The Steering Committee approved the use of
corridor travel time for use in establishing the regional transportation system.
The Spokane Regional Transportation Council is deternuning annual average corridor
travel time through a travel time study. This study is still in progress and corridor travel
time Level of Service standards will be adopted upon its completion. .
Uses of Level of Service Standards As measures of transportation effectiveness, level of service standards can help
jurisdictions identify where and when transportation improvements are needed, and when
~ developrnent or growth will affect system operation. Level of service provides a standazd j
~ below which a transportation facility or system is not considered adequate.
146
Capital Facilities Plan Transportation
t
Level of service standards can be used to evaluate the impact of proposed developments ,
on the surrounding road system. They can also be used to identify problems, suggest `remedial actions and apgortion costs between public and private sources. LOS standards
are a cornerstone in the development of equitable traffic impact fee systems, which
makes development pay some of the costs for improvements to the transportation
infrastructure.
The Spokane Regional Transportation Council (SRTC) performed traffic modeling for
the urban area, considering future population growth and distribution. This model
examines the performance of the entire urban transportation system. Improvements to
provide for the increased traffic volumes shown by the model, at the adopted ]evel of
service standards, are included in this plan. More information on the transportation
modeling based on future land use assumptions is contained in Draft Plan 2000; gage T-
24.
Relationship to Concurrency Management .
Concurrency involves matching public facilities and new development. The concept of
concurrency predates the Growth Management Act for some public facilities, specifically
through SEPA mitigation requircments. The GIviA extends concurrency to transportation
facilities by requiring that new development be served by adcquate roads and public
transportation service, and that development is not permitted to cause these transportation
facilities to operate below level of service standards that are adopted by local
governments in their comprehensive plans. "Adequate capacity refers ta the maintenance .
of coneurrency" (WAC 365-195-835). Tables T'-1 through T-7 depict level of service ,
information for county arterial intersections and state highway/county arterial
intersections. Intersections that fail to meet the level of service standard are denoted with '
an asterisk*.

State Transportation Facilities
The Growth Management Act reyuires local jurisdictions to include inventory and Level
Service information for state transportation facilities in their Comprehensive Plans. State
facilities are divided into two categories: Highways of Statewide Significance (HSS) and
Regionally Significant Highways (non-HSS). The Growtb Management Act requires •
non-HSS facilities to be subject to concurrency. Table T-6 is lists all State highways
serving Spokane County.

State Transportation Level of Service
The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDO'1) requues state
transportation facilities in urban areas (inside the UGA) to maintain a minimum Level of
Service standard "D." In rural areas (outside the UGA), the minimum LOS standazd is
"C." Those areas lying outside the UGA that may have urban characteristics can be
evaluated by the WSDOT in conjunction w-ith the County on a case-by-case basis to
determine wtuch standard is the most appropriate fit. Table T-7 shows the Level of
Service for State Highways intersecting County arterials. Six year projected level of
service is only shown for Non-HSS highways.

Intergovernmental Coordination
Spokane County Transportation Plans have been distributed for comment to a11 cities and
towns in Spokane County, adjacent counties, The Spokane Transit Authority, The
Washington State Departrnent of Transportation and the Spokane Regional
Transportation Council (SRTC). SRTC has overall responsibility for intergovemmental
coordination of transportation plans. Each jurisdiction i.n the region must submit
transportation plans to SRTC for inclusion in the Metropolitan Transportation Plan.
SRTC responsibilities include: 1) Certifying the transportation elements of
comprehensive plans adopted by the County, cities and towns within the region for
consistency with the Metropolitan Transportation Plan; 2) Maintaining consistency
~ between infrastructure plans and land use development plans and 3) Reviewine level of
service thresholds for transportation facilities in the Spokane Region.

~ Section [V. Coocurrencv
A. Concurrency Facilitics and Services
1. Definitions
a. Adequate Public Facilities -Facilities which have the capacity to scrve
development without decreasing Ievels of servicc below locally
established minimums.
b. Available Public Facilities - Means that facilities or services are in place
or that a financia] commitment is in place to provide the facilities or
serviccs within a specified time_ ]n the case of transportation, the
spccified time is six years fTOm the time of deve.lopment.
e. Concurrency - Means that adcquate public faciGties are available when
ehe service demands of develapment occur. This definition includes the
two cancepts of "adequate public facilities" and of "available public
facilities" as defined abnve.
d. Double Plumbine Dry Side Sewers - A tewer service line installed at the
time of on-site sewage disposal system construction, which will connect
the structure wastewater system to a publie sewer, when the public sewer
becpmes available. (Ref. SCC 8.03.1242)
e. Dryline Scwer- A sewer line, constructed at the time of property
~ devclopmene, that is no[ put into service until the public sewer system is
extended to the development. The installation afDryline Sewers within a
development facilitates the simple and straightforward connection of the
development to sewer when the public sewer system is extended to the
boundary of 1he development.
f. Project PermitlPmject Pcrmit Application -Any land use or
environmental permit or license required from a review authoriry for a
project action, including but not limited to'building permits, short plai.s,
subdivisions, binding site plans, planned unit developments, conditipnal
uses, variances, shoreline permits, site plan review, permits or approvals
requircd by the Critical r'lrea Ordinance, site-specific zone
reclassifications, manufactured home parks, and change of condition
request.
2. Applicability

SUB,IECT: Sprague Avenue 24-Hour Fitness Trip Generation and Distribution Analysis
This memorandum summarizes the trip generation and distribution analysis performed for the
24-Hour Fitness Athletic Club proposed in the City of Spokane Valley. The traffic analysis was
requested by the Public Works Department to address the State Environmental Policy Act
(SEPA) and concurrency requirements of the City.
Project Description
A 39,600 square-foot (s.f.) athletic club is proposed 300-feet north of Sprague Avenue, directly
west of Progress Road. The property encompasses 4.75-acres and is located in an area of
` the City zoned B-3 commercial, which supports the.land use proposal. Access to the site is
~ proposed by way of two driveways on Progress Road and a driveway on Sprague Avenue. All
driveways would allow full access (i.e. allow full turning movements) to/from Sprague Avenue
and Progress Road, respectively. The driveways located on Progress directly access a 331-
space parking lot that serves the site. The Sprague Avenue driveway is actually a two-lane
approach that extends 300-feet to north oonnect with the parking lot.
Project construction will initiate immediately following approvals with completion and
occupancy expected no later than year 2006. Figure 1 shows the location of the project site.
Figure 2 provides a site plan for the proposed development. All figures and support materials
are attached to this memorandum. Trip Generation
Site generated trip projections were developed based upon the methodologies of the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE), Trip Generation Manual (7th Edition, 2003). The ITE
Manual is a nationally recognized and locally accepted method for forecasting trip generation
for a range of commercial, retail, and residential land uses. The methodological assumptions
are developed based upon the observed traffic conditions of other similar developments within
the United States.
Forecasts for this project was determined based upon Land Use 493, which predicts the trip
generation characteristics of an athletic club. The ITE defines an athletic club as ua privately
owned facility that offer comprehensive athletic facilities; which typically has one or more of the
J following: tennis, racquetball, squash, handball, basketball courts, volleyball courts, saunas,
. ti
Subject: Valley 24-Hour Fitnsss Trip Generation and Distribution Study spas, pools, exercise rooms, and weight rooms°. Forecasts were developed for the typical ,
weekday, weekday AM peak hour, and weekday PM peak hour based upon ITE rates that ~
equate trip generation to building size. A summary of trip generation projections is provided on
Table 1.
Table 1
G-
Athletic Club (LU 493) 39,600 s.f. 1,700 70 51 121 144 84 228
~ a
As shown, the proposed project is expected to generate approximately 1,700 trips during the
typical weekday. Approximately 121 trips (7.1-percent of weekday) are expected to occur
during the AM peak hour and 228 trips (13.4-percent of weekday) during the PM peak hour.
Note, the typical weekday is the focus of this analysis because traffic volumes and congestion
in Spokane Valley are more significant during the week versus the typical weekend. Thus,
there is less of a necessity to evaluate weekend conditions. However, for the purpose of
comparison, the proposed project is expected to generate 1,900 trips during the typical.
Saturday, which exceeds weekday trip generation by approximately 200-trips. Saturday trip
generation exceeds Sunday trip generation, so this represents the weekend daily peak. ;
Trip Distribution
Site generated trips were then distributed and assigned to adjacent roadways based upon an
assessment of housing population within the Spokane Valley. In general, US Census data
indicates that approximately 35-percent of homes within the City and urban growth boundary, of
Spokane Valley is located east of the project roughly between Trent Avenue (SR 290) and 32"d
Avenue. Thus, the tdps originating from these homes are expected to use some combination
of Sprague Avenue, Interstate 90, Sullivan Road, Progress Road, and/or Broadway Avenue to
approach the site.
The remaining 65-percent of homes are located west of the project roughly between Trent
Avenue (SR 290) and 48th Avenue. Thus, these trips are expected to use some combination
of Sprague Avenue, Interstate 90, Pines Road, Argonne Road, Progress Road, and/or
Broadway Avenue to approach the site.
Trip distribution within the direct vicinity of the site is as follows:
• 25-percent of project trips to/from east via Sprague Avenue,
• 20-percent of project trips tolfrom the north by way of Progress Road (via Broadway
Avenue and Valley Way),
• 5-percent of trips directly to/from the south via Progress Road, and
• 50-percent of project trips to/from the west via Sprague Road. _%11/11/2004 Page2 of 3

Subject Valley 24-Hour Fitness Trip Generation and Distribution Study
S'rte generated trips were then assigned to the study area based upon the distribution patterns
identified above. Detailed trip distributions, and the resulting project trip assignments are
shown on Figure 3 for the AM and PM peak hours.
Summary and Conclusions
A 39,600 square-foot (s.f.) athletic club is proposed on 4.75-acres approximately 300-feet
north of Sprague Avenue, direcUy west of Progress Road. The property is zoned B-3
commercial with access proposed via two driveways on Progress Road and a driveway on
Sprague Avenue. Approximately 331-space parking is proposed to serve the site and project
completion and occupancy expected no later-than year 2006.
The project is expected to generate approximately 1,700 trips during the typical weekday; of
which, approximately 121 trips (7.1-percent of weekday) will occur during the AM peak hour
and 228 trips (13.4-percent of weekday) during the PM peak hour. Adjacent to the site,
approximately 50-percent of trips are expected to/from the west via Sprague Avenue; 25-
percent to/from the east via Sprague Avenue; 20-percent to/from the north by way of Progress
Road; and 5-percent from the south via Progress Road.

ANALYSIS SCOPE/METHODOLOGY
The purpose oE r.his threshold deter.mination is co identify the uansportation impacts of the development '
through an evaluation of intersettion levels of sexvice (LOS). The scope and scudy area foa the analysis was
developed bascd upon coordinaaon with engineering sraff from che City of Spokane Valley.
The technical analysis focuses on existing and forecast yeas 2006 traffic conditions. Year 2406 was selected
as che focus of the study to address impacts with full pxoject build-out. Pei Ciry request, the study egamines
LOS at site drive-ways and the egisting intessections of Progress Road/Broadway Avenue, Sullivan
Road/Broac}way Avenue, Adams Road/Sprague Avenue, Progress Road/Sprague Avenue, aad Sullivan
Road/Sprague Avenue. LOS evaluations were performed based upon the PM peak hour of
commute/tracel conditions. The PM peak hour rypically experience's the highest level of uaffic arid
congestion within this area of the Citp during the typica] weekday. Thus, the study is conservaeve as it
addresses tzaffic opetatibns during the worst period of the day.
Traffic operations were evaluatecl based upon the level of service (LOS) methodologies of the Higbway
is a nationally
Capruity Mar.ua! {Transportation Resea=ch Board, 2000}. The High~vcy Crspaciiy Munua! (HCTv)

zange from LOS A, irid.icating free-flow conditions with minimal vehide delays, to LOS F, indicating traffic
congestion with extended vehide delays.
LOS for a sagnalized intersection is defined in terms of the average delay experienced by all vehicles over a
specified dme period such as a peak hour. LOS at a ur-wav stop-controlled intersection is also defined by
the average delays experienced by all vehicles ac the intersection within a specafic time period. LOS for nvo-
wa r stop controlled intersections, however, is the function of the average vehicle delays egperienced by a
particulac approach or approach movement over a specified interval such as a peak hour. Typically, che
app=oach or movement that is experiencing tbe wotst LOS is reported for rhe intersection.
Tab.le 1 outlines the LOS criteria for signalized and unsignalized intersections. 'As shown, level of service
thresholds, as a funcuon of delay, vacies becaveen signalixed and unsignalized iritersections. This is because
criver tolerances for delay have been documented to be much higher at signalized intersections chan zt
unsignalized intersecaon.

dziveways and the site approach to/from Sprague Avenue will atso be stop-conuolled on the
outbound/egiting movements from the site.
LOS for driceways, unsignalized intexsections, and signalized intersections were determined using Sjonchro
Version 6, Build 612 (T'raffrcwaze, 2000). This intersection analysis softwace tool is based upon the
methodologies of HCM 2000 and is accepted by the Giry of Spokanc Valley.
DATA COLLECTION AND BASE TRAFFIC VOLUMES •
A field visit was conducted at the site and txaffic counts were collected in November of 2004. The purpose
of the field Nlisit was to note existing roadway and intersection alignments, configurations, and controls to
establish esisting capacit}' condirions for the LOS analysis. Counts were u5ed to identify cuxrent uaffic
demands a.nd to provide the basis for forecasting future without-project traffic volumes.

Existing and Future Roadway Necwork
The study ptimazily evaluates traff c conditions on Sptague Avenue, Broadway Avenue, Fzogress Road, and
$ullavan Road, as these arcerials are projected to psovide the pumary approaches to/from the site.
Descriptions of chese roadways are zs follows:
• Sprdgue Avenue is a seven lane pnr.cpal arterial that egtends entirely from the eastem to western
boundaries oE the City. Witbin the project vicinity, the a.rterial supports between 25,000 and 30,000
vehicles per day and has a posted speed lamit of 35-mph. Sidewalks, curb, and guFter are concinuous
along both sides of Spcague Avenue.
• Broadway Avenue is a mirror ar#erralwith £ouz-lanes wesE of Sullivan Road. The arcerial supports
. between 10,000 and 15,000 vehicles per day within the project viciniry, and has a posted speed 1imst
o£ 35 mph. Broadway Avenue also extends nearly continuously th.roughout the Ciry. Sidewallcs,
curb, and gutter are conti.nuous alorg both sides of Broadway Avenue.
• Progress Road is a two-lane nndential rtreet. No daily counts aze available from the Ciry for this
roadway; however, residenrial streets have historically supported less than 2000 daily trips within the
Ciry. The roadway has two to three-foot paved shoulders, with the exception of a short section of
xoadway fronring Progress Elementary School where sidewalks, curbs, and gutter are provided. The
Progress Road has a gosted speed limrt of 25-mph.
pal arterial that extends from the northern to sourhern boundaries
• Sullivan Road is a seven laneprind

Existina and Future Without-Proiect Traffic Volumes
Traf.fic councs were conducted during a typical weekday in November. Counts were conducted between
3:30 PM and 6:30 PM, and the individual peak hour foz each intersection was used for the
capacity/technical analysis; thus, assuring a conservative evaluation of forecast traffic conditions. A
summaty of exisring'traffic counts is provided on attaehed Figare 3. Raw count summary spreadsheets are

TRIP GENERATION, DISTRIBUTION, AND ASSIGNMENT .
This section of the memozaridum estimates weekda}' and PM peak hour project tcip gener3cion, trip
discribution, and assigament for the proposed project
Trip Generation
Site genecated trip projections wexe developed based upon the methodologies of the :Insatute of
Tzansporration $ngineers (iTE), Trip Gereration Manua! (l' Edition, 2003). The TTE D'lanual is a nar.ionally
recognized and locally accepted method for forecasting trip generation for a range of commercial, retail, and
residential land uses. The methodological assumptions are developed based upon the observed traffic
condirions of other sirnilar developments within the L3nited States.
Forecasts for this pLoject were determiiied based upon Lacid Use 493, which preciicts the trip generation
characteristics of an athletic club. The ITE defines an athleac club as "a pzivately owned facitity that offer
compxehensive athletie facilities; which t}*pically has one or more of the following: tenms, racquecha]l,
squash, handball, basketball courts, volleyball courts, sauflas, spas, pools, esercise rooms, and weight
, roorns". Fotecasu were developed foz the typical weekday and areekday PM peak hour ba:sed upon ITE
rates that equate trip generaaon to builciing size.

€neEa~cea
As shozvn, the project is expected to generace approximately 1,800 t.iips during the typical weekday.
Approgimately 240 of these uips (133-percent of weekday tflps) aze will occur during the nM peak hous.
Note, the t,ypical weekday is the forus of this analysis because tzaffic volumes and coogestion in Spokane
Val,ley are more significanc dusir►g the week versus the typical weekend; thus, there is less necessity to
evaluate weekend conditions. For the purpose of comparison, the pzoposed project is expected to gcnerate
1,900 trips dumng the typical Saturday, which exceeds weekday trip generation by approximately 200-trips.
tls Saturday trip generation exceeds Sunday trip generation, as defined by the ITE Manual, the 1,900-trip
forecast repxesents the week-end daily peak.
Based upon trip generation results, the Gity did not identify che need to evaluate LOS during the weekend,
' as Satuzday trip generation did not significandjr exceed weekday trip generation.

Trip Distribution and Assipnment
Site generaced trips were then distributed and assigned to adjacent roadways based upon an assessmeot of
housing population aithin the Spokane Valley. In general, US Census data ind.icates tbat approxirnatelp 35-
percent of homes w-ithin the City and urbaa growth boundary of Spokane Valley is ]ocated easc of the
pLOject roughly betvreen Trent t'ivenue (SR 290) and 32'd Aveiaue. Thus, the trips originating from these
homes are expected to use some combination of Sprague Avenue, Interstate 90, Sullivan Road, Progress
Road, and/or Broadway Avenue to appioach the site.
The remaining 65-percent of homes are located west of the project rouglily between 'T'rent Avenue (SR 290)
and 48' Avenue. Thus, these trips aze expected to use some combination of Sprague Avenue, Interstate 90,
Pines Road, .Asgonne Road, Progzess Road, and/or Broadway Avenue to appsoach the sice. Tn'p
d.isrribution ~w7thin the direct ciciniry af the site is as follows:
• 15-percent of project trips to/from north via Sullivan Road,
• 15-percent of projecc trips to/from the south cia Sullivan Road,
• 5-peicent of trips to/frorn the east via Sprague Avenue,
• 10-percent of project trips to/from the west cia Broadway Avenue,
• 5-per.cent of trips direcdy to/from the south via Progress Road, and • 50-percent of project trips to/from che west via Sprague Road. .
Sice generated trips were then assigned to the study area based upon the distdbudoa pattems identifsed
above. Detailect trip distributions, and the zesulting project trip assign.r.nents are shown on Figur,e 5 for the.
~ Future w-ithout-project traff c rolurnes and project trip assignments were then combined to develop che
future year 2006 shown on Figure 6 for the PM peak hour.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS
Settings for achaated traffic signals were obtained disecdy from timing cards provided by che Cit,y, of
Spokane Valaey. Phase identification, yellow times, red clearances, gap extension, pedesuian times, and
mag-dearances, etc. were used to establish the wotking parameters of the signal. The sirnulates how these

As shown, no inteisecaon is projected to operate below X.OS I7 through year 2006with project bui.ld-out
The City requires- that signaEized intersectioris operate at LOS D or higher and uflsignalized intersections at
LOS E or higher during cridcal hours.(i.e. peak hours) of the weekday. Thus, no opexational/LOS issues
have been idcntified by this study, and no improvements aze needed to mitigate congesrion/capac.iry issues.
Drivewav Operations
Table 4 pzovides a summary of future driveway LOS for the PM peak hout. As indicated previously, LOS

The City has also requested that the d.istance between the ehisting left-tuzn med.ian and the project approacb
on Sprague tlvenue be provided by this ieport Thus, a"haad-sketch" has beCn submitted as Figure. 7 to
pLOcide/summarize this distance.
Xn short, a space of over 60-feet will be available between the median barrier and the outbou,nd

automobiJies or one truck/bus of a lengtkz of up to 45-feet, which is equivalent to the WB-40 tum ternplate
(limited tcuck activiry is e.Xpected for 24-Hour Fimess). Veh.icles (if stopped) wi.ll tlzen be able to trazsition
inta the innex (north) eastbound lane on Sprague and accelerate to a normal craveling speed. TYzis
situation/arrangement is typieal of maciy businesses located along Spiague Avcnue near interscccions.
Note, it appears that the lefrt-turn median on Sprague Avenue ean be ieduced. The end of chis median
- island is approxirriacely 200-feet wesc of the stop-bar at Progress Road. A SyncLho 95h-percentile queue
evaluation indicates chat stacked vehides are not likely to exceed 125-feec (S to 6-vehicles) in the fvture
2006-evaluation yeaz. Thus, the island can be reasonably reduced by between 25 and 50-feec, if the Gity
requices further separaeion for the 24Houc Fimess aPpzoach. This would provide additional "stacking" of
between one and tu*o vehieles for oucbound lefc-turns ac che 24-Houx Fimess approach.
Proqress ElementarY Progress Elemeneary is located south of Broadway Avenue and east of Progress Road, approximately'/2-
mtle north of the project site. Typical houis of operarion generally ranges between 5:00 -AM and 3:00 PM,
with students pre.dominanrly arriving/deparang prior to and following these tunes, respectively.

~ Attached to this memora.ndum is an email from the development/opezations maaager for the 24-Hour/OZ
Fitness subsidiaries. The email indicates that peak periods of activity foi their athletic clubs generally occuzs
between 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM in the mozning, and between 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM in the afternoon. As
. such, it appears that club patrons and student drop-offs occuz concuxrendy on Progress Road during the
momi.ng of the typical weekday, but t6ese groups wil.l li.kely m.iss each other during the afteinoon/evening.
. Based upon the ITE Tizp Generation Nlanraal, At14 peak hour trip generation for athletic clubs is approximately
40-percent less than what is egperienced during the PM peak hour. The proposed pioject is expected to
generate just over 140 aips during the rypical weekday AM peak hour. As shown on Figure 5,
approxirnately 15-percent of site trips are expected to approach/depart che site using Progress Road. Thus,
approxirnately 20 A.~ti1 peak hour trips are egpected to pass the Elementarp School on Progress Road with.in
the timeframe of student arriva]s.
Given this information, it does not appear chat this projecc wall subscantially conflict with school operaaons
during the typical weekdap (cirop off/pick up activities, etc) .
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
A 41,693 square-foot (s.f.) athletic club is proposed on 4.89-acres approximately 300-feet norrh of Sprague
Avenue, direcdjr west of Piogress Road. The properry is zoned B-3 commetcial with access proposed via
two dziveways on Progress Road and a drivevvay approach on Sprague Avenue. Approximately 331-parking
spaces are proposed £oL the site. Project completion and oeeupancy is expecte.d no later than year 2006.
'T'he project is expected to generate appcoximate.ly 1,800 trips during the typical vveekday; of which,
~--J appfoxamaeely 240 trips (13.3-peceent of weekday) will occur during the PM peak hour. Approicirnacely 15-
percent of project tsips are expected to/from north via Sullivan Road, 15-percent to/fzom the south via
Sullivan Road, 5-percent to/ftom the east Nia Spzague Avenue, 10-percent to/fzom the west via Broadway
Avenue, S-percent to jfrorn the south via Progress Road, and 50-percent to/from the west via Sprague
Avenue.
A level o£ service (LOS) aualysis was performed for site dciveways and five offsite intersections lacated
along the primag apptoaches to from the site. The analysis was conducted based upon existing
capaciry/road-way conditions, as no roadway improvements aze proposed ';7thin the 2006 completion
timeline for the project. -LOS were performed based upon the forecast 2006 complerion year af the projecr,
and pyt peak hour traffic cofld.itions were evaluated as tra£fic utalization and congestion is most significant
duzing this time versus other umes of the tj,pical wcekday.
The City requires thac signalized intersections operate at LOS I7 or better, and that uasignalized
i,ntersections and driveways operate at LOS E oi better during the PM geak houi. Evaluadons indicate that
site d=ivexays and study intersections are projected to opesate at or above these thresholds. This indicates
that sufficient capacity exisu co accommodate tbe project; thus, no improvement rctommendations oz
driveway mod.ifications have been provided by this study. 'T'herefore, it is the conclusioo o£ this studp thac the Valley 24-Hour Fimess can be constxueted as pxoposed
without adversely impacting tcaffic conditions wichin the Spokane Va11ey, as defined based upon
i criteria/guidelines set-forth by the Ciry. 'X'he project is in cornplaance with City concuLrency and SEPA
; regulations.

Prior to a land use action, the Sponsor shall perForm a traffic impact study when thi-- project meets the criteria of one or rnore of the items listed below. A specific scoping
the County Engineer may range from an in-depth analysis of site generated levels-of-
service to a cursory review of safety issues. The County Engineer shall determine the
specfic project scope. The Sponsor shall submit a traffic report signed by a Professional
Engineer, licensed in the State of Washington. The traffic impact study shall be
performed in accordance with Technical Reference A of these Standards.
1. The County Engineer determines that the proposed development will generate
enough peak hour trips to lower or aggravate the minimum acceptable LOS.
2. The County Engineer determines that driveways from the land development
proposal have the potential to generate traffic safety problems on the adjacent
public roadway.
3. The County Engineer determines that an existing route with a history of traffic
accidents will be further impacted by an increase in traffic from the proposal.

TECHNICAL REFERENCE A
Traffic Studies and Review Standards
O Introduction
Traffic studies or site impact studies are required by the Spokane County Engineer to
examine the demands that development may or may not have on the surrounding
transportation system. The need for a traffre study shall be determined on a case by
case basis. A list of general guidelines and decision criteria are available in §1.30,
Traffic Impact Study, of the Spokane County Sfandards for Road and Sewer
Construcfion.
This handout has been prepared to provide engineers, planners, and developers with
information regarding traffic impact study requirements within Spokane County. It is not
intended to be a textbook or all inclusive of the possible scenarios or requirements that
may be encountered during a study. It is believed that by following the guidelines and
recommendations made within this handout, the time spent during the application and
review process may be reduced.
Scoping
A scoping meeting should be scheduled with Spokane County prior to starting the field
work for the study. During the scoping meeting, the general requirements of the study
will be discussed. It shall be the responsibility of the developer/consultant to initiate and
coordinate the scoping meeting. Afthough not required, Spokane County recommends
~ that a joint scoping meeting with all reviewing agencies be coordinated through the
projecYs traffic consultant. The following is a list of items that shall be discussed during
the scoping meeting and recorded on the Traffic Study Scope Worksheet found at the
end of this appendix.
1. Project description .
A. proposed land uses (if known)
B. trip generation
C. pass-by 8 diverted trips ,
2, Project phasing and horizon year
3. Anticipated directional distribution of project traffic.
4. Background projects
5. Background growth rate (non site specific)
6. Affected intersections for study
Public Participation •
Two public meetings shall be held within the project study area. A public scoping
meeting shall be conducted by the developer/consultant to allow public input to the
scope of the project and following study. It is anticipated that with the public scoping
meetings, additional neighborhood issues will be brought forward and addressed andlor
~ resolved prior to the public hearing.
The second public meeting shall be after the traffic study work is complete and is
intended to brief the surrounding neighborhood on the traffic study results. All costs
Spokane County Standards Page A-1
April 1999
TECHNICAL REFERENCE A Traffic Studies and Review Procedures
associated with the public meetings (signs, room rental, notfication mailing, etc.) shall
be the responsibility of the developer/consultant.
Public Notification
Notice of date, time, place and purpose of the public meetings shall be provided by the
following means. 1. One publication in Spokane County's official newspaper at least fifteen (15) days
prior to the meeting.
2. Adjacent residents, property owners, neighborhood groups and/or organizations
within a four hundred (400) foot radius of the project boundaries shall be notfied
by a mailing not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the public meeting.
3. Additionally, a sign with dimensions no less than four (4) feet in width and four
(4) feet in height and lettering three (3) inches in size shall be erected on the
subject properly fronting and adjacent to the most heavily traveled public sfireet.
The sign must be easily read by the traveling public from the right of way at least
fifteen (15) days prior to the meetings. This sign shall announce the date, time
and place of the traffic meetings and brief description of the projec#.
Proper notification and all associated costs shall be the responsibility of the
developerlconsultant. Notification shall be considered satisfied upon receipt of an
affidavit provided by the developer/consultant to Spokane County stating the above .
. requirements have been completed. ,

Trafffic Study Report
The means by which the work of the traffic study is conveyed to others is through the
traffic study report. The traffic study report should stand on its own merits. There
should be sufficient information and detail to allow the reader to follow the study step by
step and draw the same conclusions as the author. The report should be factualty
based, written from an impartial viewpoint and report all aspects of the traffic study work
that was undertaken. In addition, the report should be written such that the lay person,

Traffic Studies and Review Procedures
~ Background Growth Rate (non-site specific) - The annual percentage rate of traffic
growth that cannot be assigned to a specific project. This rate is to be applied to the
existing tum movement volumes prior to the addition of the background project traffic or
site generated traffic volumes.
Background Project Traffic - The total site generated traffic volumes for approved
background projects shall be used in the build-out analyses of the proposed project
irrespective of each projects anticipated completion date. This is required to ensure
that capacity that was available wfien the background project was approved is still
available at the completion of the proposed project. Quicker developed projects will not
be allowed to deplete the capaciry needs of longer-term development.
Level of Service (LOS) - Levels of Service shall be deteRnined in accordance with the
methods reported in the latest edition/update of the Highway Capacity Manual, Special
Report 209.
Pass-by Trips - Pass-by trip reductions, if used, shall be shown and calculated on
separate figures. The pass-by rates must be established during the sooping process.
Rates and procedures shown in the latest edition of the ITE Trip Generation manual
may be used. For those land uses without pass-by trip rates, sufficient documentation
supporting the proposed rates shall be provided to and accepted by Spokane County.
~ Peak Hour Factors (PHF) - Peak hour factors shall be determined from the recorded
tum movement volumes and used throughout the study. For cases where a peak hour
factor was not calculated or was unable to be calculated, the default values contained
in the latest edition/update of the Highway Capacity Manual shall be used.
Responsible Engineer - The engineer that is responsible for the woric of the study and
report shall affix his/her seal on the cover page of the report. The responsible engineer
shall be licensed in the State of Washington and have experience in
traffic/transportation engineering.
Right Tums on Red (RTOR) - RTOR movements, if they are to be used as reductions in
the study, shall be recorded in the field and submitted with the tum movement counts.
The number of vehicles tfiat can take advantage of this maneuver greatly varies by
intersection and area.
As v/c ratios increase, fewer gaps will be available to allow RTOR movements and a
methodology for use in future year scenarios shall be provided and accepted by
Spokane County prior to submission of the traffic study report.
Trip Generation - Trip generation shall be based on local trip generation rates for similar
facilities provided there has been sufficient study to provide good statistical significance.
WherE local rates are not available, the rates contained in the latest edition of the ITE
Trrp Generation manual shall be used.

Traffic Studies and Review Procedures
Tum PVlovement Counts - As a general rule, traffic counts should be recorded less than
one year prior to submitting a traffic study. Older counts may be used provided they are
adequately factored to represent current volumes and the metfiods used in determining
and apptying the factors are discussed in the report. Counts older than two years shall
not be used.
Updated Studies - Occasionally traffic impact studies will need to be updated and/or revised. Should this be necessary, all information and procedures shall be brought into
conformance with these standards. For example, new tum movement counts may
need to be gathered depending on the age of counts or change in traffic pattems,
phasing andlor build-out year may need adjusted, etc. Where the revisions to a study
are minor and would not warrant the submission of a new report, errata sheets shall be
provided along with a notice to affected parties to make the necessary additions,
deletions andlor changes.

another enLiLy that may propose a iorm ol' public transpoi-tGtion for thai aiea.
o The City should have the righi to placs utilities, public or private in ihe ROVJ, and mafce
other reasonably related uses of the ROW. In the donation document the language
should read, "transferred and convEyed for street, utility (public and private), and all ..i
other reasanably related purpases consistent with the authflrity of the City fa control and
manage the property under the laws of Washington."
o Page 2, #3, I would rec4mmend tha't we not assume the risk for hazardous substances.
If we do then we should considzr a full environrnental assessment on the property. lNe
may also want to include a condition that allows us to return the ROW to the County in
the event that we encounfer significant hazardflus materials.

YeC. Directc,r K.ersten also cjistributed cnpies of a"]7rafi Level of Service Analysis Table orlncersec.iions"

thtit any neNv de-vclopmcnt in thosc arcas Nvould nat be approved because ihey fail COnCUrrCncy because

stated that provided an existing siiz will not contr•ibute morc traffic, it wOuld be ;randfathered iit; but new
projecis which will have new trai'fic, will cause problems.
L7irecCOr 11"ersten also disCussed the "ScopP of Woi•k Valiey Coi`ridqr T'nviron.menlal Lvaluation April
2005" and cxplained that originally the County liad Jones & Stof:cs under cunlr<<ct to finish the
Environiiiental Assessment (CA); and ihat he is workiri^ Nvi[h [hem to develop diis scope of work; he
statPd that their• staff has changed several times last ycar and tha4 we have had diffculry in worl:in~ ~~~it1~

Regarding the Quit Claim Deed included in the pt►cket, Director Kersten stated that the County sent the .
deed; that he and Deputy Attorney Driskcli reviewed if and commenis are on Chc; April 5 R.cquest: for
Council Aciion form. Mr. Kersten suggested staff re-drafi the document aiid send it baclc to the County
for flicir consideration. Councilmember DeVleming suggested the removal of condition 94. Council also
discussed condiCion #1 where it st'ates the property must be used solely for transportation or will revert to
the Gran[or, and suggested that paragraph he re-written. The issue of leases on the property was brougllt
up aiid Mr. I:ersten said hc would resuirch that: information. Council discussed the eimsframe involved,
and the possibility of taking interim measures to clean «p the area. V9r. Mercier mentioned that the
negative repercussions of acquiring the property now are that if the model is correct and therefore there
would bc no federal funding lo support dhs improvement, this would inean we wquld have acquired the
property as an asset for na purpose but would that it would have liability issues associatecl with it. AR-er
fiirther consideratioii, it was Council consensus that staff make che changes and send it to the County for
their consideraCion; aiid tliat Council wants to tflke the property to get some use in the interim. Mr.
Kersten st:ate(l he will endeavor [o get re.sppnses to the issues, will publish an RFP, that this is aii interim
stcp, and that st3ff will report baek a~ain to CoLmcil to answer tMese questions and concerns.

Committee members Eldonna Gossett ancl David Quinn, explained the peoposed changes as per the
FowerPoint presencaiion. Councilmember Denenny stated that he continues fo have concems with
nonconforming signs whieh may acquire damage and need repairs or need to be replaced; and thai he
feels sueh sicgm shuuld also be renlaeec€ with a sign similar to tlhe original, damaged sign. AZs. Sulcup
mentioned that if a sign is damaged, that the sign owijer has 60 days to fix it; that most si?ns are not
totally demolished and do not need siructural ahernation; and if only damaged, the sign can be repaired D
and kept a# dle original, nonconforming size, but iP loCally deskroyed, the sign musi be, replaced with a
conforming sign. She cxplained that replacemcnt means building something new; and repair means
fixing something existing, Council discussed the policy issues contained in rhe PowerPoint, anci agreed
with the proposed provisions relating to (1) existing rtofi-confor3ning sio~s, and (2) approval authoriry
o<<er sigii pla.ns; and determined that further research and/or clarification is needed for the polic>> issues c,#'
(1) ciesignation of aesthetic eorridors in the Comprehensive Plan and main[enance of directional sigms
installed by Spokane County; and (2) advertising and benches aiid shelters. Issues to be further
considered in that reaard iiiclude political signs, liability issues, advercising, Sunsei Advertising Company
