1 Don Hoch Director STATE OF WASHINGTON WASHINGTON STATE PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION 1111 Israel Road S.W. P.O. Box Olympia, WA (360) TDD Telecommunications Device for the Deaf: July 12, 2018 Item E-8: Capital Budget - Requested Action EECUTIVE SUMMARY: This item asks the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission to approve a capital budget request level, proposed project list, resolution on an Anderson Lake State Park multi-use trail, and authorization for the Director to submit a biennium capital budget proposal to the Office of Financial Management substantially consistent with those approvals. This item advances the Commission s strategic goal: Develop amenities and acquire lands that advance transformation. SIGNIFICANT BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Previous Commission Involvement At its November 2017 regular meeting, the Commission approved a set of principles to guide development of the Ten-Year Capital Plan and biennial budget request (Appendix 1). Key among the principles was a determination to move the system s facility condition to an overall grade of B (80% Facility Condition Index) within ten years. The B grade goal was an acceleration from last biennium s goal to achieve that grade in 15 to 20 years. These principles, along with the Commission s other adopted strategic guidance (e.g., Acquisition and Development Strategy and 2016 update to the Strategic Plan), form the basis for development of the Capital Budget request. The Director further refined staff s direction to include the following capital budget targets that came out of the Commission s action: Aim for an 80% preservation and 20% programmatic mix of projects funded in the capital construction account (057 Account) Set a capital construction account request level at about $110 million and aim for $10 million in grants. At its May 2018 regular meeting, the Commission heard a progress report on candidate project lists and priorities. Staff provided the Commission with criteria for project ranking, as well as the following four pre-ranked criteria under which projects were automatically included in the biennial capital request: Projects needing re-appropriation (projects that have already been funded and started but not completed) Projects that follow-up phases of previously approved projects (construction phase of a previously designed and permitted project) 1

2 Projects that are critical (projects that are required to keep a park or portion of a park open due to risk of facility failure) Statewide projects (projects the Commission has already committed to and take place in multiple parks). A Distinctive Year of Challenges The legislature s unprecedented failure to pass a capital budget until nine months after the scheduled end to its 2017 Regular Session, resulted in a unique set of challenges for the capital program. The program was required to first lay off staff and then try to rehire those staff still available and interested in working for the agency. The task of fully hiring staff to meet this biennium s existing needs is still underway. Combined with the nearly $500 million maintenance backlog, an expanded emphasis on multi-biennial phased projects, and the Commission-established principles identified above, it quickly became clear that the list of preranked projects (See Table 1) would exceed the agency s average historical capital budget, which has generally been funded in the $50 to 70 million range. Table 1: Proposed Pre-Ranked Categories and Budget Amounts in Staff- Recommended Capital Budget Pre-Ranked Category Proposed Budget Re-Appropriations $19,817,000 Projects with Previous Phases $28,640,000 Critical Projects $11,550,000 Statewide Priority Projects $15,388,000 Total Pre-Ranked $75,395,000 $36,505,000 in other projects = Total Capital budget of $111,900,000 Given about $110 million ceiling in requests, that left about $31million worth of additional projects to be prioritized. Project Ranking Criteria Nevertheless, regional parks staff developed and prioritized capital projects under the following criteria: 1. Acquisition and Development Strategy goals 2. Guiding Principles for All Projects 3. Recreation Experience 4. Visitation 5. Fiscal Impact 6. Urgency of Project 7. Facility Condition 8. Natural Resources Condition 9. Historic Property Condition 10. Interpretation/Educational Opportunities 2

3 11. Environmental Regulatory Viability and Ease of Regulatory Compliance 12. Cultural Resource Condition 13. Partnerships and Community Support After the initial regional prioritization effort, headquarters and region staff went through several iterations of analysis and project definition to get to the list that it is recommending to the Commission. See Appendix 2 for the Staff Recommended Capital Budget Request. Appendix 3 contains a more complete list of capital projects, including those that did not make the cutline. These out year projects form the basis for the agency s Ten-Year Capital Plan along with additional concept-only projects that are bundled under the category 2029 to 39. Both these documents together provide a picture of the relationship between the upcoming biennial budget request and the Commission s longer-term capital strategy. Anderson Lake State Park Multi-Use Trail When reviewing hundreds of candidate projects, priorities emerge, in part, based on timeliness for execution. The Peninsula Trails Coalition (PTC) has proposed that State Parks construct a leg of a long-distance multi-use non-motorized trail that would pass through Anderson Lake State Park and link up with the Olympic Discovery Trail and the Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail. This project is consistent with previous Commission actions. Yet, the PTC has not yet secured the necessary rights-of-way to assure that a State Parks investment would be able to tie in to other portions of the trail. Staff is thus recommending a special Commission resolution (Appendix 4) be passed that gives encouragement for PTC efforts to secure the rights-of-way and assurance of a Commission funding request once those rights are secured. Expenditures and Anticipated Outcomes Appendices 5, 6, and 7 provide further context to the budget recommendations for the biennium. Appendix 5 breaks down projected ten-year capital expenditures by a set of investment criteria established by the Director. Appendix 6 contains a list of potential grant projects over the next ten years. Appendix 7 displays a quantitative listing of ten-year outcomes down to the facility level. Finally, as context for biennial capital investment, staff has compiled a list of anticipated outcomes for the ten-year list of prioritized capital projects tied to the 2016 Commission-adopted Acquisition and Development Strategy. The Strategy established five fundamental goals the Commission wished to advance through acquiring land and developing park facilities. In addition to dramatically improving the condition of facilities, staff anticipates that full support and funding of the proposed Ten-Year Capital Plan will yield key outcomes in each of the Commission s five adopted goals, which are highlighted below: Places to be: Connecting people with Washington s iconic landscapes Constructs two new state parks on major existing land holdings Constructs initial public access to four previously acquired properties Stories to know: Engaging people in authentic Washington stories Constructs a new interpretive center at Sun Lakes-Dry Falls State Park to tell the story of the ice age floods, a new interpretive center at Fort Casey to tell the story of the coastal 3

4 defense system, and fully renovates interpretive centers at Ginkgo-Wanapum, Spokane House, Fort Columbia, Federation Forest, and Bowman Bay at Deception Pass, all of which had not been renovated for a quarter century or more. Preserves 25 percent (190 of 754) of the higher priority historic structures in the state park system Provides relevant contemporary interpretation at all 16 State Park Heritage Sites Provides a destination interpretive feature in every park area Constructs utility infrastructure to support cultural events and festivals in suitable parks Things to do: Providing Washington s recreational mainstays Constructs 1 new campground with about 100 campsites Renovates 15 existing campgrounds with about 1400 refurbished campsites Constructs 50 cabins, yurts, platform tents, and other roofed accommodations with state capital funds and more than 100 through private/partner investment. Ways to grow: Inviting novices to experience Washington s outdoors Redevelops day-use areas in 35 parks Provides improved universal access for people with disabilities to the principal feature and suitable support facilities in 45 parks Improves 50 miles of long-distance trails Something for everyone: Improving the quality of life for all Washingtonians Corrects all significant barriers to fish passage on agency-owned lands Treats 2000 acres of forest lands to reduce risk of fire and pest infestation Generates an estimated about $110 million of increased annual statewide economic activity from a base of over $800 million per year. Operating impacts Operating impact analysis from the proposed capital project list is ongoing. Upon adoption of the list by the Commission, operating impacts will be incorporated into the Operating Budget request. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends about $110 million capital budget request for the biennium. Together with the agency s operating budget, this request will continue to move the state park system toward a healthy and sustainable condition. Staff recommends that the Commission approve the proposed capital project priorities as described in Appendix 2, allowing the Director to make minor modifications due to refined project scoping and cost estimates. These are projects that staff believe can be realistically completed with the resources the agency can align to the task. Given the agency s capital appropriation history, the current economic climate, and legislative trends, it is expected to be a great challenge to secure gubernatorial and legislative support for a package of this size. 4

5 Staff recommends the Commission authorize the Director to submit the proposed Capital Budget Request per the Office of Financial Management s Capital Budget Instructions. In addition, staff recommends that a document be prepared that describes the proposed capital projects and suitably conveys the need and rationale for the Commission s capital budget request.

7 APPENDI 1 TEN-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN GUIDING PRINCIPLES AND GOALS November 2017 Commission Action Guiding Principles for All Projects Improve statewide facilities condition index Increase operational efficiency Advance universal access Minimize development impact and apply sustainable design strategies Respond proactively to the effects of climate change Protect natural features and systems Value historical properties and cultural sites and treat according to adopted guidelines View capital improvements from a park, area, and state perspective Consider lifecycle costs and maximize value of constructed assets. Provide recreational experiences and amenities equitably to all state residents 1 Preserve and provide access to key park aesthetics Maximize recreational and cultural benefits. Ten-Year Capital Plan Assumptions and Goals: The Washington State Parks Strategic Plan identifies the key goal of moving toward a healthy and sustainable parks system. The TYCP s role is to move the system s facilities toward a healthy and sustainable condition. Below are specific assumptions the Parks and Recreation Commission makes and goals it sets to achieve that objective by TYCP Assumptions and Goals That Do Not Have Specific Financial Measures Overall 2 Facility Condition Index (FCI) Goal: Improve the overall FCI of parks facilities from a Grade D to a Grade B in 10 years. 3 Recreation Niche: Assume no substantial change from State Parks Recreation Mainstays in the state capital budget. However, consider visitor-driven demographic and technological changes and remain open to more entrepreneurial innovation in Recreational Concession Areas (RCAs). 1 Considerations include population size, age distribution, regional variation, ethnicity, socio-economic status, etc. Special attention should be paid to efforts at inclusivity. This means the deliberate effort in park design to ease access and promote use for a full spectrum of the state s residents. This may include, for example, providing public transit access facilities in parks, providing facilities for varied recreation pursuits popular in different ethnic groups, and locating parks and facilities near urban population centers. 2 Overall FCI All facilities are included in this calculation, including buildings, roads, utilities, parking, marine facilities, etc. While the condition of some of these facilities may end up above or below the B level, the aim is for an overall average. 3 In the Capital Budget Agency Request, see the description of the strategic approach to facility condition backlog reduction. 7

8 Recognize State Population Changes: The State s population will increase and diversify dramatically over the coming 10 years and there will be other significant changes in the state s demographics to consider in park capital decisions. Level of Operating Budget: Assume that the Legislature provides adequate funds for planned and preventive maintenance of facilities in both the State Operating and Transportation budgets. Day Use Facilities Emphasis: Capital facility design should consider the importance of meeting day use visitation demand. Campground Design and Amenities: Capital facility design should reflect changes in consumer preferences with special emphasis directed toward improving off-peak occupancy rates of standard sites. High Risk of Facility Failure: As facility conditions warrant, invest where and when there is a risk of facility failure within 10 years. Natural Resources: Integrate efforts to improve the condition and resiliency of natural resources whenever feasible in conjunction with and as part of capital facility investments. Natural Disasters: Assume that any significant impacts from natural disasters are above and beyond the budgets identified in the TYCP. Assume the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will reimburse State Parks for most if not all of those costs. 8

The commission may sole source for the equipment. The commission must operate and maintain the equipment for a minimum of two years and report annually to legislative fiscal committees on: (1) the ease of use by park patrons and (2) the cost and time to maintain the equipment. This project relocates the drainfield that is hydraulically compromised to an area with suitable disposal soils. This project replaces sewer lines on the main campus which have surpassed their expected lifespan. This project will reduce park maintenance costs. This project provides new shake roofs, log repairs, and other improvements for the historic CCC structures that are a critical asset of Schafer State Park. Replacing the roofs and those logs that have deteriorated will keep the CCC buildings in service now and preserve them for future generations. 6 7 Fort Casey $300,000 $1,900,000 ADA Improvements Battery Worth ( Minor Works) Lake Chelan $292,000 $2,192,000 Moorage Dock Pile Replacements 8 Moran $850,000 $3,042,000 Summit Learning Center - Interp.

This project replaces failing dock pilings on five docks to ensure safety of state park visitors. It has been designed and permitted in biennium. This project, in collaboration with the park s friends group, designs, permits, and constructs an interpretive facility that replaces the communications building. It makes improvements to the site on top of Mount Constitution to accommodate its use more efficiently as a learning and interpretive center. This project provides a grant match to redevelop the picnic area at Sunset Beach in Lake Sammamish State Park. The project includes one large and two smaller picnic shelters, a new lawn and trees, and a portion of a wide, paved esplanade that will eventually connect Sunset Beach to Tibbets Beach. This project is a key part of an overall redevelopment of Sunset Beach, through six phases of work which have been completed or are currently underway. This project replaces a pedestrian bridge that has been condemned due to structural failure. Replacement of the bridge will reopen a large portion of the park's trail system. This project also includes trail improvements. Designing and permitting started during the biennium. This project carries out preservation and restoration work on North Head area buildings and grounds. It is a third phase, reappropriation only project. 9

The project also includes replacing failing secondary power from the transformers to residences and replacing failing water supply lines. Project also provides repairs to the two oil house roof structures, repairs the masonry structures, replaces stone parapet copings, and provides new doors to both buildings. It also replicates the original fence around the lighthouse. Finally, the project includes paving from the parking lot turn-around up to the garages, between the garages, and around the carriage house. This provides an ADA-accessible route to the buildings. This project preserves 22 World War I Era buildings. It is phase two of two construction phases. Fort Flagler has many intact and coherent historic military buildings. All are in advanced deterioration. It is important to stabilize and restore the structures and exterior skin including roof/gutters, siding, windows/doors, and masonry. Designs for preservation of all systems are completed with bid packages currently available. This project is a partnership with the Fort Worden Public Development Authority. Based on the outcome of the structural engineering study occurring during the biennium, the current phase designs and permits repair or replacement of the pier. If repair is not economically justified, then the pier and learning center will be replaced to enable continued use as a component of the Marine Science Center programs. Future phases include construction, including partnership participation by the PDA and MSC. 15 Fort Worden $1,500,000 $16,015,000 Replace Failing Sewer Lines 16 Willapa Hills Trail $100,000 $3,817,000 $19,932,000 Develop Safe Multi-Use Trail Crossing at SR 6 17 Kopachuck $3,500,000 $1,400,000 $1,400,000 $24,832,000 Day Use Development 18 Fort Worden $150,000 $1,500,000 $1,500,000 $26,482,000 Replace Failing Waterlines This project replaces sewer lines to maintain sewer service at the park. The sewage collection system for the main campus of Fort Worden State Park is failing and has exceeded is useful life. The first phase of this project designed and permitted a pedestrian overpass within the Willapa Hills State Park Trail right-of-way at the intersection of State Route 6 to provide a safe crossing for pedestrians, cyclists, and equestrians. The current location of the atgrade crossing is dangerous because of limited sight-distance on a curved segment of the highway. This not only poses a serious threat to park visitors, but also highway motorists. This phase constructs the overpass and associated paving to merge with existing trail standards. This project contains a major renovation of the upland day use area, as a reappropriation. The new project carries out improvements accessing the beach area. New beach facilities include a cascading boardwalk system that provides ADA access and scenic viewpoints. A new pocket beach provides safe water access for park visitors of the shoreline. Other improvements include paving the access road, a new ADA-accessible beach area restroom with outdoor shower, parking for people with disabilities and for people dropping off and picking up handheld boats, and an emergency vehicle turnaround. The project also includes relocating the popular Cascadia Marine Trail campsite. This phased project replaces the failing water system at Fort Worden State Park. The existing water system is plagued by failures and has passed its useful life-span. A new system will meet current Department of Health standards and health codes, and the practical demands of water pressure for visitors and park staff. The first biennium designs and permits the improvements, with the following biennium completing construction. 10

The current access, built in the 1930 s, has been severely impacted by increased highway traffic, higher vehicle speeds, larger vehicles, and increased park visitation. This project provides a safe entrance to existing park facilities and safer driving conditions for SR14 motorists. The first biennium includes pre-design, the second phase designs and permits the project, and the third phase constructs the improvements. The project includes replacing outdated interpretive panels. This phased project relocates the existing campground due to annual flooding, thus reducing maintenance costs and increasing visitation. The first biennium designs and permits improvements, with construction the following biennium. 21 Sun Lakes - Dry Falls $500,000 $1,350,000 $30,282,000 Sun Lakes Dry Falls Visitor's Center Development This project renovates the existing visitor's center area, including an enhanced potable water system (drill new well and some distribution ($300K)), ADA access to buildings and grounds (visitor center, restroom - $500K), historic preservation (rock wall, visitor center roof and exterior siding work, and other misc. exterior renovations - $600K), and interior and exterior interpretive enhancements ($100K). The center serves to educate visitors regarding the historic massive floods, (Missoula Ice Age Floods) which carved and formed much of Eastern Washington. Design and permit occurs during the biennium along with construction of rock wall. Remainder of construction in biennium. 22 Sun Lakes - Dry Falls $650,000 $30,932,000 Sun Lakes - Dry Falls - Upgrade Failing Water Supply Systems This project designs and constructs separation of potable and irrigation water systems. The project also prepares the documentation required by the Department of Health. The current supply lines for irrigation and potable water at Sun Lakes have evolved over time without any unifying strategy. As a result, a significant amount of irrigation is done using disinfected potable water. The average age of existing irrigation and potable water lines is over 50 years and they are nearing the end of their functional life. The significant use of potable water for irrigation is a violation of Parks domestic water rights obligations and a waste of State resources. 23 Mount Spokane $1,700,000 $32,632,000 Maintenance facility Relocation-const 24 Goldendale $750,000 $33,382,000 Observatory Enhancements Ph4 This project relocates State Park's maintenance facility from its current environmentally sensitive location to meet the Department of Fish and Wildlife requirements. The project has snow removal equipment shop with shop offices and crew area, above ground fuel storage tanks, covered sand and salt storage. New site requires new road access and utilities. This is for the construction phase of a project. This project completes a major renovation of the Observatory. Phases 3 & 4 work include major telescope and observatory improvements, new interpretive exhibition hall, new classroom/presentation spaces, parking upgrades, landscape/site improvements, facility upgrades, main building improvements, expansion of outdoor viewing areas, improved restroom facilities, gallery and administrative spaces. 25 Nisqually $3,000,000 $17,000,000 $36,382,000 New Full-Service Park This project designs, permits and constructs a new full-service park in partnership with the Nisqually Indian Tribe. Tribal financial participation is expected. In a predesign approval from OFM are secured. In, designs and permits are secured for extensions to the existing trail system, construction of a Mashel River viewpoint, first phase development of a campground and appropriate support facilities, trail development to the Nisqually River, along with construction of the trail extensions. In , the first phase campground construction is completed, along with design and permitting for the next phase of construction. In 2023 and onward, design, permitting and construction of the remainder of the park master plan concludes. 11

The park to be developed will be determined through a Commission approved statewide acquisition and development strategy. Candidates include Miller Peninsula, Fisk Property, Washougal, Hoko River, Sol Duc, and the Lake Isabella property. The first biennium funding will address the OFM pre-design process. The second biennium funding will address design and permitting. Following bienniums will address construction. Which property or properties to develop will be determined through a business analysis and public process. This project preserves the most important Depression Era heritage structures in the agency. Parks for include, but are not limited to, Deception Pass, Moran, Beacon Rock, and Lewis and Clark. Specific additional parks will be identified for outyear projects. The project includes all phases of the historic preservation process including assessment, design, permitting, and construction. This project renovates the existing Sunset Beach parking area and includes significant storm drainage enhancements. It also completes extension of the esplanade from Sunset Beach to Tibbets Beach. Landscaping, site restoration, and signage are also provided, in a development which completes multiple phases of work in the Sunset Beach upland area. 29 Lake Sammamish $700,000 $42,607,000 Issaquah Creek Bridge and Loop Trail This project constructs a second Issaquah Beach Bridge and completes a riverwalk loop trail. 30 Fort Simcoe $50,000 $900,000 $900,000 $43,557,000 Historic Officers Quarters Renovation 31 Statewide $50,000 $400,000 $44,007,000 Fish Barrier removal (Lawsuit related) 32 Statewide $2,288,000 $7,674,000 $46,295,000 Fish Barriers Phase 2 work completes the renovation of four historic buildings. Prior work included foundation stabilization, structural stabilization and general repairs throughout all four buildings. Extensive restoration work is needed on the buildings wood gutters, windows need to be restored, roofs need replacement or repair and some interior work is needed on the fireplaces and rotten beams. Further delay could result in putting the structural integrity of these historic buildings in jeopardy. Add light filtering UV system. Phase 3 completes other preservation work. This project reviews performance of lawsuit-related fish barrier removals and carries out modifications as needed. Under the injunction, as new barriers are identified that meet lawsuit-standards, barrier removals are designed, permitted and carried out. The first biennium of this phased project constructs six barrier-removals where initial design and permitting have been completed. Additional barrier removals are carried out in subsequent biennia. These are barriers where State Parks is legally responsible for removal even though they are not part of a lawsuit. This is likely an ongoing responsibility Statewide $200,000 $46,495,000 Code/Regulatory Compliance Statewide $1,200,000 $4,800,000 $47,695,000 Code/Regulatory Compliance This project improves infrastructure related to unforeseen code compliance and regulatory requirements. Regulators such as the Department of Ecology, Department of Health and county health departments often issue regulatory changes that require broad upgrades, repairs, or other modifications to our utility systems in order to keep park facilities open. These funds will provide for the quick response expected from the regulators and allow for our park systems to continue necessary operations.

This project repairs window sashes, jambs, sills and glazing in historically significant buildings throughout the state. Parks included Cape Disappointment, Fort Columbia, Cama Beach, Lime Kiln Point, Fort Worden, and Fort Casey. This project carries out primarily assessment work, resulting in a list of sub-projects to be completed with remaining funding or included in future year funding requests for ADA compliance. This project carries out a list of sub-projects to be completed with remaining funding or included in future year funding requests for ADA compliance. This is an ongoing project throughout the 10-year plan and beyond. This project provides outdoor exhibits in 7 state parks: Cape Disappointment, Sacajawea, Potholes, Wenatchee Confluence, Daroga, Lyons Ferry and Mount Spokane. This project replaces a bridge on the verge of structural failure. The bridge provides vehicular access to a large portion of the park. Design and permit occurs during the biennium with construction the following biennium. This project completes exterior stabilization of the lighthouse and tower, including the masonry chimney and adjacent oil house. Design and permit occurs during the biennium with construction the following biennium. This phased project dredges sand and sediment from the entrance channel and south end of the Blake Island marina. The channel must be dredged to maintain channel depth for boat access to the Blake Island Marina and concession facilities. Project also includes upgrading moorage, gangway, and access routes to comply with ADA, creosote removal at pier and entrance sign, construction of a permanent ramp for State Parks marine crew vessel and replacement of the moorage floats that abut the EPA pier.

The existing comfort station is historically significant and will remain but may be need to be supplemented with other facilities. The comfort station currently experiences flooding, and the project will reduces the frequency and damage from those events. This project renovates an historic vehicular bridge, which is currently closed due to a failed structural condition. The project already is 60% designed and this project completes design and construction. This project completes conversion of a DNR-owned primitive campground to a State Parks- quality standard campground with potential for future addition of utility sites. It completes a new campground loop, toilets, trailer parking areas, an interior pathway, and landscaping. Design and permitting is substantially complete and funded by the Avista Corporation as part of its FERC responsibilities. Avista is a financial partner in construction, which will likely include funds for campsite and the camp loop road grading. This project carries out a major park renovation. Along with a specific answer to many choices at Twanoh, it is a pilot of statewide significance for designs that consider historic preservation in the context of projected climate change impacts. The project combines previous historic preservation projects for campground and day use areas, as well as a previous project to provide for an interpretive master plan. This project improves the infrastructure at two parks that have a high likelihood of development and/or partnership with an RCA. Each park is intended to have at least $15 million of private sector investment that is supported by this project's infrastructure investment. This project develops exhibit designs, construction documents, and installs outdoor exhibits at park including, but not limited to, Cape Disappointment, Fort Worden, Fort Flagler, and Fort Ebey state parks. This multi-phase project installs infrastructure to connect individual parks to the agency s computer network to improve business activity efficiency and provide secured computing on the State Government Network for up to 50 parks. This project improves forest health at various parks around the state, reduces risk of wildfires, damage from pests, injuries to park visitors, and improves natural habitat conditions. Parks are selected based on those with the highest need and highest risk. This project tells the story of how the Civilian Conservation Corps and Works Progress Administration contributed to the development of the state parks system. The project is a phased approach to develop interpretation in 23 state parks which follows the strategic approach used for the Ice Age Floods capital program. Renovation of the Bowman Bay CCC Interpretive Center is included. This project stabilizes Pearrygin Creek. In 2015, a major flood event caused major scouring along the creek channel. Without stabilization of a sharp right-hand bend in the creek, the creek is at risk of over topping at this junction, carving a new channel straight downhill and placing all the proposed improvements in jeopardy. 73 Peace Arch $500,000 $88,595,000 Historic Preservation - Coating Replacement 74 Cape Disappointment $2,500,000 $4,500,000 $91,095,000 Welcome Center and Entrance Improvements This project brings coating down to bare concrete, repairs concrete as necessary, and recoats with appropriate material.
