STATE ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT Determination of Non-Significance October 22, 2024 Lead Agency: Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County, Washington (Grant PUD) Agency Contact: Larry Lehman llehman@gcpud.org 509-630-7916 Agency File Name:Priest Rapids Dam Spillway Stability Improvement Project. Description of Proposal: The Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County, Washington (Grant PUD), is required to improve stability of the Priest Rapids Dam Spillway as part of the Priest Rapids Dam Spillway Stability Improvement Project (Project). The dam, constructed in the late 1950s, is owned and operated by Grant PUD. The purpose of the Project is to repair a disbanded concrete lift joint and to construct safety and structural stability improvements to the spillway to meet current Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)-mandated stability standards. The Project includes the following components: • A waterline is proposed to be installed along the right bank of the Columbia River near Wanapum Indian Village to support construction operations. None of the other existing facilities on the property will be removed or altered as part of this Project. The proposed location of the waterline is currently disturbed and following installation, the ditch will be filled and graded smooth to match existing contours. Work will occur outside of the 200 ft shoreline zone and a portion will be located within the FEMA 100-year flood plan. • A temporary surface water intake pump will be placed in the forebay to supply water for drilling operations. As much as 20,000 gallons of water may be with drawn each day to support drilling operations at a pumping rate of approximately 1 cubic foot per second (cfs). Overall, water withdrawal for the project would be approximately 56-acre feet over a three (3) year period (max ~24-acre feet in a single year). Grant PUD will receive approval from the Department of Ecology (DOE) for non-consumptive surface water withdrawal. • To facilitate barge mobilization, launch, and operations, shoreline access to Priest Rapids Forebay will be established near the left (east) embankment shoreline corner. Access will be provided by an existing dirt/gravel access road and mobilization will occur on the existing gravel beach, which will be smoothed out prior to launching. • Modular style barge(s) between 40 to 60 feet wide and 80 to 120 feet long will be used to support construction activities. Barges will operate in the forebay (upstream) side of Priest Rapids Dam. To support the barges, temporary, concrete barge mooring anchors (5 locations; 300 cubic yards) will be placed in the forebay and removed following completion of the project. A temporary floating barrier will be installed encompassing the barge. All this work will occur within the existing hazard barrier. Anchor plates will be installed to the spillway structures below the OHWM. • Thirty-eight post-tension anchors will be installed through the spillway ogees into the foundation bedrock. For monitoring long-term success of the post-tension anchor installations, two additional pre-production anchors will be installed into concrete caissons on the right bank of the Columbia River. Temporary standpipes will be attached to existing apron drainpipes on the will be drilled and anchored to existing spillway monoliths (hand drilling will occur below and above the OHWM). • Over-water work includes Installation of constructing temporary work platforms over the spillway ogees (overwater) in order to install the anchors, which will be installed in spillways not in use and removed prior to opening of spillway. • Because surface water will be used to support drilling of the post-tension anchors, a temporary water treatment system will be set up to filter and treat drill water to meet applicable water quality standards prior to discharge to the river downstream of Priest Rapids Dam. Discharge will meet the required conditions of the NPDES and 401 Water Quality Certification for pH, temperature, and turbidity. Water treatment system will be located on the right bank below the dam and the discharge will be located near the right bank within a spillway. • Temporary working platforms on the downstream face at each spillway bay will be constructed to support construction equipment and contractors performing the work. • Storage and laydown areas will occur within existing Priest Rapids Dam open spaces that are currently maintained and used for similar purposes. Only minor improvements may occur; however, the majority of these areas are located outside of the 200 ft shoreline zone. • The total limit of the Project and staging areas is approximately 16.5 acres. Location of proposal: Priest Rapids Dam, 29086 Highway 243 South; From Interstate 90 (I-90), take Exit 137 from the east end of the Vantage Bridge for SR 26 east toward Othello/Richland. Continue driving south on SR 26 for approximately 1.4 miles and turn right onto SR 243. Drive south for approximately 20 miles and take the Priest Rapids Dam access road exit south of Desert Aire, Washington. The Project area is at the end of the access road. Note that prior approval from Grant PUD is required to access portions of the Project area The Project is located on Grant County tax parcel 150031000 and Yakima County tax parcel 23130232001 (storage, laydown, and access areas), as well as Priest Rapids Dam within the Columbia River (no parcel number). The Priest Rapids Dam is located on the Columbia River, at river mile 397 upstream of Hanford Reach, near the community of Mattawa, Washington. The dam connects to Grant County on the left (east) bank of the river and Yakima County on the right (west) bank of the river. The approximate centroid of the Project area is 46.643348, -119.912184 WGS84 within Township 13 North, Range 23 East, Section 2. Application Contact Information: Evelyn Zepeda: Regulatory Specialist, Grant PUD ezepeda@grantpud.org; (509) 754-7074 Grant PUD has determined that this proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. An environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). This decision was made following review of a completed Environmental Checklist and other information on file with the lead agency. This information is available to the public upon request. This determination is based on the following findings and conclusions: The proposed project will result in negligible potential adverse impacts to the aquatic and shoreline environments associated with the proposed activities. The majority of the proposed project will occur in the dry and will not result in any long-term modifications to the existing structures or use. All temporary structures associated with the construction activities will be removed following completion of the project. Erosion Control, Dust Abatement, and Stormwater best management practices (BMPs) will be implemented during construction. These practices will be implemented prior to the start of construction activities and will avoid and minimize any potential adverse impacts to the uplands, shoreline, wetland, and aquatic areas. The proposed Project will adhere to applicable regulatory requirements related to the preservation of wildlife and wildlife habitat, such as the implementation of a TESC Plan and a Drill Water Treatment and Discharge Plan to identify BMPs to remove pollutants from drilling water before discharge. Water quality measures employed will be with the approvals of the Department of Ecology as part of the 401 Water Quality Certification and NPDES permit to protect water quality and ultimately minimize impacts to federally listed species and non-listed fish and wildlife. Overall, the proposed project will not result in any adverse impacts to fish and wildlife species.
