Representative Moscoso moved the adoption of amendment (246):
Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:
"Sec. 1. RCW 47.28.030 and 2014 c 222 s 701 are each amended to read as follows:
(1)(a) A state highway shall be constructed, altered, repaired, or improved, and improvements located on property acquired for right‑of‑way purposes may be repaired or renovated pending the use of such right‑of‑way for highway purposes, by contract or state forces. The work or portions thereof may be done by state forces when the estimated costs thereof are less than fifty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, sixty thousand dollars.
(b) When delay of performance of such work would jeopardize a state highway or constitute a danger to the traveling public, the work may be done by state forces when the estimated cost thereof is less than eighty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, one hundred thousand dollars.
(c) When the department of transportation determines to do the work by state forces, it shall enter a statement upon its records to that effect, stating the reasons therefor.
(d) To enable a larger number of small businesses and veteran, minority, and women contractors to effectively compete for department of transportation contracts, the department may adopt rules providing for bids and award of contracts for the performance of work, or furnishing equipment, materials, supplies, or operating services whenever any work is to be performed and the engineer's estimate indicates the cost of the work would not exceed eighty thousand dollars and effective July 1, 2005, one hundred thousand dollars.
(2) The rules adopted under this section:
(a) Shall provide for competitive bids to the extent that competitive sources are available except when delay of performance would jeopardize life or property or inconvenience the traveling public; and
(b) Need not require the furnishing of a bid deposit nor a performance bond, but if a performance bond is not required then progress payments to the contractor may be required to be made based on submittal of paid invoices to substantiate proof that disbursements have been made to laborers, material suppliers, mechanics, and subcontractors from the previous partial payment; and
(c) May establish prequalification standards and procedures as an alternative to those set forth in RCW 47.28.070, but the prequalification standards and procedures under RCW 47.28.070 shall always be sufficient.
(3) The department of transportation shall comply with such goals and rules as may be adopted by the office of minority and women's business enterprises to implement chapter 39.19 RCW with respect to contracts entered into under this chapter. The department may adopt such rules as may be necessary to comply with the rules adopted by the office of minority and women's business enterprises under chapter 39.19 RCW.
(4)(a) ((For the period of March 15,
2014, through June 30, 2015,)) Work for less than ((one)) two
hundred ((twenty)) forty thousand dollars may be performed on
ferry vessels and terminals by state forces. When the estimated cost of work
to be performed by state forces is between one hundred twenty thousand dollars
and the dollar amount set by this subsection (4)(a), the department shall first
contact, by mail or electronic mail, contractors that appear on the
department's small works roster as created pursuant to procedures in chapter
39.04 RCW to do specific work the contractors are qualified to do to determine
if any contractor is interested and capable of doing the work. If there is a
response of interest within seventy-two hours, then the small works roster
procedures commence. If no qualified contractors respond with interest and
availability to do the work, the department may perform the work using state
forces. If the secretary determines the work to be completed is an emergency,
then procedures governing emergencies apply.
(b) The department shall hire a disinterested, third party to conduct an independent analysis to identify methods of reducing out-of-service times for vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement projects. The analysis must include options that consider consolidating work while vessels are at shipyards by having state forces perform services traditionally performed at Eagle Harbor at the shipyard and decreasing the allowable time at shipyards. The analysis must also compare the out-of-service vessel times of performing services by state forces versus contracting out those services which in turn must be used to form a recommendation as to what the threshold of work performed on ferry vessels and terminals by state forces should be. This analysis must be presented to the transportation committees of the senate and house of representatives by December 1, 2010.
(c) The department shall develop a proposed ferry vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program and present it to the transportation committees of the senate and house of representatives by December 1, 2010. The proposed program must:
(i) Improve the basis for budgeting vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement costs and for projecting those costs into a sixteen-year financial plan;
(ii) Limit the amount of planned out-of-service time to the greatest extent possible, including options associated with department staff as well as commercial shipyards; and
(iii) Be based on the service plan in the capital plan, recognizing that vessel preservation and improvement needs may vary by route.
(d) In developing the proposed ferry vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program, the department shall consider the following, related to reducing vessel out-of-service time:
(i) The costs compared to benefits of Eagle Harbor repair and maintenance facility operations options to include staffing costs and benefits in terms of reduced out-of-service time;
(ii) The maintenance requirements for on-vessel staff, including the benefits of a systemwide standard;
(iii) The costs compared to benefits of staff performing preservation or maintenance work, or both, while the vessel is underway, tied up between sailings, or not deployed;
(iv) A review of the department's vessel maintenance, preservation, and improvement program contracting process and contractual requirements;
(v) The costs compared to benefits of allowing for increased costs associated with expedited delivery;
(vi) A method for comparing the anticipated out-of-service time of proposed projects and other projects planned during the same construction period;
(vii) Coordination with required United States coast guard dry dockings;
(viii) A method for comparing how proposed projects relate to the service requirements of the route on which the vessel normally operates; and
(ix) A method for evaluating the ongoing maintenance and preservation costs associated with proposed improvement projects.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and takes effect July 1, 2015."

Except as provided otherwise in this subsection, the department in conducting investigations is authorized, without court order, to take possession or control of relevant evidence found in plain view and belonging to any person, firm, or corporation.

(ii) Absent a court order authorizing otherwise, the department may not take possession or control of evidence over the objection of the owner of the evidence if the evidence is used by the owner in conducting a business or in providing an electric utility service and the department's taking possession or control of the evidence would substantially and materially interfere with the operation of the business or provision of electric utility service.

Different initial response frequencies may be identified and used as appropriate in different geographic response areas. If the fire radio communication needs escalate beyond the capability of the identified local radio frequency, the use of other available designated interoperability radio frequencies may be used.

HOUSE BILL NO. 1918, having received the necessary constitutional majority, was declared passed.
HOUSE BILL NO. 1187, by Representatives Chandler, Blake, Buys, Stanford, Hayes and Parker
Concerning best practices for water banks.
The bill was read the second time.
Representative Chandler moved the adoption of amendment (188):
Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:
"NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. (1) The legislature finds that, unlike other basins in Washington, the Yakima basin is unique in that it has recently undergone a legal adjudication of surface water rights in the basin. In addition, the holders of junior water rights in the basin may be subject to water use curtailment. The unique nature of the Yakima basin has led to the development of an active water market for water reallocation that includes the use of the trust water right program for mitigation purposes and water banking.
(2) In adopting this act to establish standards for water banking in the Yakima basin, it is not the intent of the legislature to imply that the types of water mitigation currently used in the Yakima basin can or should be applied to other parts of Washington.
Sec. 2. RCW 90.42.020 and 2009 c 283 s 3 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:
The definitions in this section apply throughout this chapter unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
(1) "Department" means the department of ecology.
(2) "Local government" means a city, town, public utility district, irrigation district, public port, county, sewer district, or water district.
(3) "Net water savings" means the amount of water that is determined to be conserved and usable within a specified stream reach or reaches for other purposes without impairment or detriment to water rights existing at the time that a water conservation project is undertaken, reducing the ability to deliver water, or reducing the supply of water that otherwise would have been available to other existing water uses.
(4) "Pilot planning areas" means the geographic areas designated under RCW 90.54.045(2).
(5) "Trust water right" means any water right acquired by the state under this chapter for management in the state's trust water rights program.
(6) "Yakima basin water bank sponsor" means any person, corporation, or other entity, including a state agency, nonprofit organization, or local government, that holds a legal or beneficial interest in a trust water right from which mitigation credits will be offered for sale to other parties for domestic supply purposes in the Yakima river basin.
(7) "Water conservation project" means any project or program that achieves physical or operational improvements that provide for increased water use efficiency in existing systems of diversion, conveyance, application, or use of water under water rights existing on July 28, 1991.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A new section is added to chapter 90.42 RCW to read as follows:
(1)(a) Every Yakima basin water bank sponsor shall file with the department a schedule showing the amount to be charged for a mitigation credit, including all costs and fees.
(b) The department must post the schedule received from all Yakima basin water bank sponsors on its agency internet web site.
(2) No change may be made in the amount charged, or other costs and fees paid, unless the Yakima basin water bank sponsor provides notice to the department at least thirty days before the change goes into effect. The notice must plainly state the changes to be made in the schedule then on file with the department and the effective date of the changes.
(3) For water banks established prior to the effective date of this section, the Yakima basin water bank sponsor must submit a schedule to the department within ninety days of the effective date of this section.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. A new section is added to chapter 90.42 RCW to read as follows:
(1) A Yakima basin water bank sponsor may establish a water bank for any lawful purpose and retains all authority to establish any costs, fees, or other charges for the purchase and sale of mitigation credits. This includes the authority to establish a sliding scale of charges, whereby a charge is made for mitigation based on the quantity of water use or on the services rendered as part of the water bank transaction or operations.
(2) Nothing in this section prohibits a Yakima basin water bank sponsor from establishing a water bank for specific limited purposes, such as providing mitigation credits for certain water uses or users, but not other uses or users. However, a Yakima basin water bank sponsor may not sell or otherwise provide mitigation credits to similarly situated uses or users on different prices or terms.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. A new section is added to chapter 90.42 RCW to read as follows:
(1) The department shall require each Yakima basin water bank sponsor to:
(a) Demonstrate the availability of an adequate and reliable water supply to mitigate for the intended purposes for which mitigation is provided; and
(b) Record each mitigation credit with the appropriate county auditor for the parcel of land upon which the mitigation credit is used in like manner and in the same effect as provided for an original certificate or permit to divert water.
(2) The department shall ensure that new water uses for which mitigation is provided will not cause detriment or injury to existing water rights.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. This act may be known and cited as the Yakima basin water banking best practices act.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. If any provision of this act or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of the act or the application of the provision to other persons or circumstances is not affected.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 8. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and takes effect immediately."
