Kate Dexter, Mayor A T A a. ,ci APP AS TO ^ Docu Sign Envelope I D : F BBCAF U -BDl 7 -4807-9706-34CAF0D E6 1 46 CITY OF PORT ANGELES DECLARATION OF EMERGENCY Nathan West, the City Manager of the City of Port Angeles, finds that the following facts exist: I . On Saturday, October l, 2022, City Crews discovered a water main leak on the 20- inch concrete cylinder water transmission main just west of White Creek between Golf Course Road and Porter Road. At this location the water main is approximately 8-10 feet below grade and at the bottom of a steep embankment. The City does not have the necessary crews or equipment to complete the repair. Water from the main was shooting into the air and City crews shut down the main on Saturday October I ,2022, for health, safety and environmental reasons. 2. The failed segment of main is a critical component of the City's water distribution system. This main was installed in the 1960s and serves as the primary water source for the Clallam County PUD Round Tree Reservoir. In addition to PUD water customers who receive water from Round Tree Reservoir an additional 170 City customers on Golf Course Road plus two assisted living facilities and I Mental Care facility off Golf Course Road are out of water. The break also caused low pressure to 3 l8 homes and 8 apartment complexes in the Mt Angeles area which are now under boil water notices. Repairing this main is critical to water quality and public health for the following reasons: First, lack of access to water for an extended period of time creates a public health emergency and puts proper sanitation at risk. Second, reenergizing the water main rvithout fixing the leak could lead to contamination of the waterline, bacteria in the water supply as well as soil erosion and nrrbidity in White Creek. It is imperative the repair is implemented immediately. 3. The water main failure location poses a significant barrier to City personnel who need to make repairs. Currently, the City lacks the proper equipment to excavate the area and lacks the personnel necessary to make repairs to the water main. Repair work will require the use of heavy equipment, such as excavators. and the services of a contractor who is skilled in such repair. 4. Due to the severity of the main break, its location, its impact on the City's water supply. and the need for immediate repair, an emergency is present which may necessitate utilization of emergency powers granted pursuant to RCW 35.33.081 and RCW 38.52.070(2). Now, therefore, by the authority granted to me under State law and by the City Council, I hereby declare that an emergency exists in Pon Angeles due to a water main break and that the City is authorized to do the following: l. Enter into contracts and incur obligations necessary to combat such emergency situation to protect the health and safety of persons and the preserv'ation of property; and 2. Each City Department is authorized to exercise the powers vested under this resolution in light of the emergency situation without regard to time-consuming procedures and formalities prescribed by law (excepting mandatory constitutional requirements). ?w>DATED this l" duy of October 2022.
