AN ORDINANCE relating to Seattle Public Utilities; authorizing execution of a contract with the Port of Seattle for construction of water system improvements at Seattle Tacoma International Airport, and authorizing transfers of property interests in connection therewith. WHEREAS, The Port of Seattle (the "Port") is engaged in a project to add a third runway to Seattle Tacoma International Airport (the "Airport"); and WHEREAS, Seattle Public Utilities ("SPU") operates a 36 inch water transmission pipeline that runs under the first, second, and planned third runways at the Airport; and WHEREAS, as part of the third runway project, the Port needs to place a large amount of fill material over that water pipeline and to build a new road north and west of the Airport, to be known as South 154th Street; and WHEREAS, SPU and the Port desire to relocate that water pipeline away from Airport runways; and WHEREAS, the most efficient way to accomplish such relocation is for SPU to deactivate its existing water transmission pipeline, for the Port to design, construct and transfer to The City of Seattle by May 1, 2004 a new pipeline in South 154th Street, and for Seattle to contribute a portion of the cost thereof, all as described in the form of agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Agreement"); and WHEREAS, the Agreement contains provisions for transfers of property rights related to relocation of SPU's existing water transmission pipeline; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY OF SEATTLE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The Director of Seattle Public Utilities, or her designee, is hereby authorized for and on behalf of The City of Seattle to execute the Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto, and to deliver it to the Port of Seattle. The Director of Seattle Public Utilities, or her designee, is further authorized to enter into appropriate contracts and subcontracts, and to grant and accept easements, deeds and other property transfer documents, as appropriate to effectuate the Agreement. Section 2. Execution of the Agreement authorized hereby and any other act consistent with the authority and prior to the effective date of this ordinance is hereby ratified and confirmed. Section 3 This ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty (30) days from and after its approval by the Mayor, but if not approved and returned by the Mayor within ten (10) days after presentation, it shall take effect as provided by Municipal Code Section 1.04.020. Passed by the City Council the _____ day of ____________, 2000, and signed by me in open session in authentication of its passage this _____ day of _________________, 2000. _____________________________________ President _______ of the City Council Approved by me this _____ day of _________________, 2000. ___________________________________________ Mayor Filed by me this _____ day of ____________________, 2000. ___________________________________________ City Clerk May 17, 2000 (Ver. 1 ) EXHIBIT A AGREEMENT TO RELOCATE WATER PIPELINE This Agreement to Relocate Water Pipeline (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of the __ day of ________, 2000, by and between the Port of Seattle, a municipal corporation of the State of Washington ("Port") and The City of Seattle , a city of the first class of the State of Washington, acting by and through Seattle Public Utilities ("SPU"). The Port and SPU are sometimes referred to herein as the "Parties" and either as the "Party." Recitals A. The Port owns and operates Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (the "Airport"), and is engaged in a project to add a third runway to the Airport ("Third Runway Project"). As part of the Third Runway Project, the Port needs to bring the area under the planned third runway, approximately as shown in Exhibit A, ("Third Runway Area") up to a grade compatible with the first and second runways. In so doing, the Port will raise the existing grade of the Third Runway Area by up to 160 feet. Also as part of the Third Runway Project, the Port previously has planned to build a new road north and west of the Airport, to be known as South 154th Street, as shown in Exhibit B ("New Roadway"), and to install electricity, gas, sanitary sewer and storm sewer lines therein. The New Roadway shall be dedicated to the City of SeaTac ("SeaTac") in return for SeaTac's vacation of a portion of the existing South 154th Street and South 156th Street. B. SPU owns and operates a water system (the "Water System") that serves customers inside and outside Seattle, including the Airport. As part of the Water System, SPU owns and operates a 36 inch water transmission pipeline that runs east-west under the first and second runways at the Airport, as well as under the planned Third Runway Area, at approximately 4 to 13 feet below existing grade, as shown in Exhibit A ("Existing Pipeline"). The Existing Pipeline is a complete operating integral section of the Water System, used to provide a reliable supply of water to Water District 49 and Highline Water District (collectively, the "Water Districts"). C. The Port's plan to fill the Third Runway Area would bury a portion of the Existing Pipeline in the Third Runway Area by up to 160 feet. D. The Parties wish to relocate the Existing Pipeline out from under all runways at the Airport and have agreed that such relocation shall occur before a third runway is put in service. E. The Parties have determined that the most practical way to relocate the Existing Pipeline is for the Port to construct and install a water transmission pipeline in the New Roadway, as shown in Exhibit B (as hereinafter defined, the "New Pipeline"), and for SPU to terminate its use of the Existing Pipeline. F. The Parties desire to set forth the terms and conditions, including payment provisions, for construction and installation of the New Pipeline, deactivation of the Existing Pipeline, and, if required hereunder, construction and installation of the Pipeline Improvement (as hereinafter defined). G. The New Pipeline and the Pipeline Improvement each will constitute a complete operating integral section of the Water System, and will substitute for and serve the same functions as the Existing Pipeline. Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the Parties agree as follows: Agreement 1. Agreement This Agreement reflects the understanding between the Parties regarding the matters covered herein and incorporates all prior negotiations and agreements between the Parties. It shall be in full force and effect from the date first written above until the date on which the New Pipeline is transferred from the Port to SPU, pursuant to this Agreement. This Agreement includes all Recitals and the following exhibits: Exhibit A Airport, with Third Runway Area and Existing Pipeline Exhibit B New Roadway Exhibit C Design Guidelines 2. New Pipeline The Port shall design, construct, and install a new water transmission pipeline (including necessary appurtenances) that (i) has a 36 inch inside diameter, (ii) is constructed of Class 52 ductile iron or 36 ksi steel pipe, (iii) is aligned materially in accordance with the alignment depicted on Exhibit B, (iv) is constructed materially in accordance with the Design Guidelines set forth in Exhibit C and (v) otherwise conforms to the terms of this Agreement (the "New Pipeline"). The Parties agree that installation of the New Pipeline shall include inspection, filling, pressure testing, disinfection, flushing, dewatering, rewatering, bacteriological testing (by SPU), and connection of the New Pipeline to the Water System, in accordance with the final plans and specifications for the New Pipeline. However, the New Pipeline Contractor (as hereinafter defined) shall not operate Water System valves in any manner without the prior written consent of SPU. 2.1 Design. To the extent not already completed as of the date hereof, the Parties shall observe the following process for the design of the New Pipeline: (a) In the event that at any point in the design/review process the Port determines it is impossible or impracticable to adhere to the Design Guidelines set forth in Exhibit C or the alignment set forth in Exhibit B, the Port shall include with each design submittal required under this section 2.1 a written notation of any deviation from the Design Guidelines or alignment not previously disclosed in a prior submittal and an explanation for the deviation. (b) The Parties recognize that time is of the essence, and agree that the design process shall be completed by August 1, 2000 (the "Deadline"), provided that SPU receives a 60% design Complete Submittal (as hereinafter defined) no later than April 26, 2000. If the 60% Complete Submittal is delayed, the Deadline will be extended by the amount of the delay. Accordingly, the Parties shall work expeditiously and cooperatively during the design/review process. The Parties shall endeavor to provide submittals/feedback to the other as early as possible through the design process. Within three (3) working days after receipt of a design submittal, SPU shall notify the Port by e-mail or fax whether the submittal is complete (a "Complete Submittal") or incomplete (an "Incomplete Submittal") in accordance with the criteria set forth below for the applicable submittal. (c) If SPU identifies an Incomplete Submittal, the Port shall (unless a disagreement exists) deliver to SPU for review and approval or disapproval a revised submittal as soon as possible and in any event within seven (7) working days. Within three (3) working days after receipt of such revised submittal, SPU shall notify the Port by e-mail or fax whether the submittal is a Complete Submittal or an Incomplete Submittal. This process shall be repeated until SPU determines that the submittal is complete. (d) If SPU approves a Complete Submittal required under this section 2.1 with comments, the Port shall incorporate such comments into the next submittal or any disagreement regarding those comments shall be resolved before the Port delivers the next design submittal. If SPU fails to comment on a Complete Submittal within the time set forth below, that submittal shall be deemed to be approved. If SPU disapproves a Complete Submittal required under this section 2.1, the Port shall (unless a disagreement exists) deliver to SPU for review and approval or disapproval a revised submittal addressing the reason(s) for disapproval within seven (7) working days after delivery of the disapproval. No later than seven (7) working days after receipt of such revised submittal, SPU shall deliver its written comments and approval or disapproval to the Port. Any disagreement based on SPU disapproval of a design submittal shall be resolved before the Port delivers the next design submittal. (e) The Parties shall meet as necessary to resolve disagreements that may arise in connection with each design submittal. Disputes shall be resolved pursuant to section 9 hereof and the timeframes set forth in this section 2.1 shall be tolled during the pendency of any such dispute.

Improvements to the Existing Pipeline If construction of the New Pipeline has not begun before February 1, 2003, or if construction of the New Pipeline thereafter ceases or is delayed such that it is unlikely that the New Pipeline could be completed and transferred to SPU by May 1, 2004, the Port shall begin work on designing, constructing and installing an improvement (including necessary appurtenances) to the Existing Pipeline that (i) brings the portion of the Existing Pipeline within the Third Runway Area to a depth of five (5) feet below the grade shown in the final plans and specifications for the Third Runway Project, (ii) extends as far east and west of the Third Runway Area as SPU determines is necessary, but no further east than the point that is 100 feet east of the center line of Perimeter Road and no further west than the point that is 100 feet east of the center line of 9th Avenue South (each point determined to the nearest pipe joint as located in the field), (iii) follows the alignment of the Existing Pipeline, (iv) is constructed of Class 52 ductile iron or 36 ksi steel pipe, (v) has a 36 inch inside diameter, (vi) is constructed materially in accordance with the Design Guidelines contained in Exhibit D, and (vii) otherwise conforms to the terms of this Agreement (the "Pipeline Improvement"). The Parties agree that installation of the Pipeline Improvement shall include inspection, filling, pressure testing, disinfection, flushing dewatering, rewatering, bacteriological testing (by SPU) and connection (all in accordance with the final plans and specifications for the Pipeline Improvement) with respect to both the connection of the Pipeline Improvement to the Existing Pipeline at the points identified in clause (ii) above (the resulting pipeline is referred to herein as the "Entire Pipeline") and the reconnection of the Entire Pipeline to the Water System. However, the Improvement Contractor (as hereinafter defined) shall not operate Water System valves in any manner without the prior written consent of SPU. The Port's construction, installation, and transfer of the Pipeline Improvement to SPU is not intended, nor shall it be deemed, to relieve the Port of its obligation to construct, install and transfer to SPU the New Pipeline pursuant to this Agreement. The Port shall, in a timely manner so that completion of the Pipeline Improvement is not delayed, obtain all property and governmental approvals that may be necessary to construct and install the Pipeline Improvement. The Port shall continue to work expeditiously on construction and installation of the Pipeline Improvement, and shall on or before May 1, 2004 transfer to SPU a fully operational Pipeline Improvement; provided, that if the New Pipeline is completed and transferred to SPU prior to May 1, 2004, the Port's obligations with regard to the Pipeline Improvement shall cease. All costs of design, permitting, construction and installation of the Pipeline Improvement shall be borne solely by the Port, except those costs incurred by SPU in connection with the activation of the Entire Pipeline, which costs shall be reimbursed by the Port strictly in accordance with section 8.2. 4.1 Design. The Parties shall observe the following process for the design of the Pipeline Improvement: (a) In the event that at any point in the design/review process the Port determines it is impossible or impracticable to adhere to the Design Guidelines set forth in Exhibit C or the required alignment, the Port shall include with each design submittal required under this section 4.1 a written notation of any deviation from the Design Guidelines or alignment not previously disclosed in a prior submittal and an explanation for the deviation. (b) The Parties recognize that time is of the essence. Accordingly, the Parties shall work expeditiously and cooperatively during the design/review process. The Parties shall endeavor to provide submittals/feedback to the other as early possible through the design process. Within three (3) working days after receipt of a design submittal, SPU shall notify the Port by e-mail or fax whether the submittal is complete (a "Complete Submittal") or incomplete (an "Incomplete Submittal") in accordance with the criteria set forth below for the applicable submittal. (c) If SPU identifies an Incomplete Submittal, the Port shall (unless a disagreement exists) deliver to SPU for review and approval or disapproval a revised submittal as soon as possible and in any event within seven (7) working days.

SPU's review or approval of plans or specifications for the Pipeline Improvement or acceptance of the Pipeline Improvement pursuant to section 4 shall not create any obligation or liability of SPU in the event that said plans or specifications or the construction or installation of the Pipeline Improvement is found to be defective in any manner. 5. Allocation of Risk 5.1 Intent of Parties. The Parties specifically acknowledge and agree that the Existing Pipeline is an integral part of the Water System and is necessary for SPU's reliable provision of water to the Water Districts. The Parties also acknowledge and agree that the New Pipeline will serve the same function as the Existing Pipeline. The Parties further acknowledge and agree that SPU would not have been willing to enter into this Agreement without the Port's representation that the New Pipeline is expected to be fully operational and transferred to SPU prior to May 1, 2004, and the Port's obligation to provide SPU with the Pipeline Improvement on such date in the event that the New Pipeline cannot be delivered on schedule. Consequently, if both: (i) the New Pipeline or the Pipeline Improvement has not been transferred to SPU prior to May 1, 2004 in conformance with this Agreement and (ii) for any reason whatsoever (other than SPU's willful refusal to transmit water to the Water Districts when such transmission is practicable and prudent), SPU's ability to transmit water to the Water Districts on and after May 1, 2004 is reduced or eliminated, then the Port shall assume risk as set forth in section 5.2. 5.2 Risk Allocation.

Solely for the purpose of effectuating the foregoing indemnity and not for the benefit of the Port's employees or any third parties, the Port expressly waives any immunity that may be granted to it under the Washington State Industrial Insurance Act, Title 51 RCW. The Parties agree that the indemnification provided in this section 5.2 has been explicitly and mutually negotiated by the Parties and shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. _____ ______ Port SPU If a court of competent jurisdiction, all appeals having been exhausted or all appeal periods having run, determines that the Port's indemnification obligations under this section 5 are governed by RCW 4.24.115, then the limitations on indemnification contained therein shall apply. The Port's obligations under this section 5.2 shall not be deemed to diminish or eliminate the Port's obligations under section 6. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, until and through April 30, 2004, SPU shall be responsible for all liability and risk that it may incur in connection with its obligations to supply water to the Districts; provided, that this sentence is not intended nor shall it be interpreted, to relieve the Port from liability for damaging any operational portion of the New Pipeline or the Entire Pipeline. 6. Completion of Third Runway Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including the completion of the Pipeline Improvement), (i) the Port shall construct and install the New Pipeline pursuant to section 2 and transfer the New Pipeline to SPU pursuant to section 7 prior to putting into use a third runway in the Third Runway Area, and (ii) SPU shall pay for the New Pipeline in accordance with section 8.1. 7.
