The PUD filed for a relicense in May 2009. Since there were many unresolved issues among the <br /> stakeholders,the PUD embarked on settlement negotiations. Settlement has been reached with all but one <br /> (i.e. Tulalip Tribes) of the involved parties. This has culminated in a settlement agreement which the parties <br /> will sign supporting 23 license articles. These include the issues of minimum instream flows, recreational <br /> fishing, fish passage at the City's Diversion Dam, water supply, and water quality protection. These articles <br /> taken together secures the reliability and quality of the City's water supply for the next 40 years. <br /> RECOMMENDATION (Exact action requested of Council): <br /> Authorize the Mayor to sign the Settlement Agreement for the Henry M. Jackson Hydroelectric Project in the <br /> form substantially as provided. <br /> 37 <br />
