This project rehabilitates the seal rings and bushings in the Boundary turbine runners. Inspections of the turbine runners have determined that excessive wear has occurred and
replacement of the seal rings and bushings as quickly as possible is required. Accordingly, the work has been scheduled for 2012 and 2013 and will take place during the outages already scheduled for replacement of the turbine runners,
which achieves significant efficiencies.
This project acquires and installs Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) software supporting Power Marketing functionality in resource management, credit controls, risk evaluation,
settlement and billing. Project implementation allows for trading in more complex and profitable markets. Phase 1, completed in 2011, installed the base module. Phase 2, which extends the project into 2012, prepares Energy
Position reports and Billing and Settlement reports. Phase 3 will prepare information for Transmission and Capacity Planning and for Risk Analysis and Mitigation.

This project will design and construct approximately 35 small to medium sized projects on Aurora Avenue between the Shoreline City Limits and
Downtown Seattle to support Metro's new Rapid Ride service in that corridor. These projects will be reimbursed by Metro through an FTA grant to initiate Rapid Ride service. Projects include curb ramp construction, sidewalk construction, and the
installation of pylons at non-station stops to provide real-time bus information. An additional five projects in other existing SDOT CIP programs will be constructed with City funds, which will provide Metro with the required matching funds.

Mayor's signature / approval date
The date displayed here is the ordinance approval date.
Approval date for an ordinance is ordinarily the date the bill was signed by the Mayor. There are certain exceptions:
In a case where the Mayor returns a bill without signature, the approval date is the date it was returned to the City Clerk.
If a bill is not returned to the City Clerk by the Mayor, the effective approval date is fifteen days after its passage by the City Council.
In the case of a bill vetoed by the Mayor and subsequently reconsidered and passed over the Mayor's veto, approval date is the date of final passage by the City Council.
In the case of initiatives and referenda passed by the voters, approval date is the date of the Mayor's proclamation of the election results.
