This 2002 staff report from the City of SeaTac and City of Des Moines addresses an appeal by King County Water District #54 challenging an environmental (SEPA) determination related to the Des Moines Creek Basin Restoration Projects, a multi-agency effort to reduce stormwater damage and protect water quality near the Tyee Golf Course. The water district argued that the environmental review failed to adequately address potential impacts to the Highline aquifer, which serves as its sole water supply source. The hearing was scheduled before a Hearing Examiner on October 10, 2002.
