6. Explain how construction ready this infrastructure project is relative to design completeness and the permitting process. The District has awarded a contract to construct the Phase I WWTP to Apollo General Contractors, lnc. and has pre-purchased the process equipment skid from Kubota that is scheduled for delivery in Iuly 2021. The system will be completed and operational by the end of October 2021, The District has contracted with HLA Engineering and Land Surveying, lnc. to develop bid documents for a well driller to determine an adequate site by constructing test wells starting July l, 2021. The information obtained will be use by Aspect Consulting to complete the well design. The finaf well development will be completed in2022. 7. lndicate the Estimated Number of Short Term and/or Permanent Jobs Created/Retained by the Project. The water right credits the District will receive once the Kittitas County well is completed will provide capacity for up to 3,000 additional ERUs, enough to serve the full future build-out of their service area. Existing commercial operations such as the ski resorts will use the additional water capacity to add hours to their ski-related operating time in the form of night skiing, days to their operating season by increasing their snow-making operations, and add year-round operations to their facilities resulting in diversity and more FTEs. Kittitas County has approved developments without consideration of the limited capacity of the District's domestic water and wastewater systems. The completion of the Kittitas County Well and Phase I MBR provide the needed water and wastewater capacities to allow the planned developments to move forward in a sustainable manner. The new construction sparks construction-season jobs for many years as the development occurs. The average home in Snoqualmie Pass requires three seasons to complete. The commercial vs. residential mix of ERU consumption has historically been about 7 commercial connections for every 100 residents. The usual support businesses of services for residential are anticipated to be supplemented with new business types to cater to year-round outdoor activities.
