Interlocal Agreement Between
Yakima County,the City of Yakima,and the Washington State Department of Transportation
for the
Naches-Cowiche Confluence Complex Project
This Agreement is made and entered into between the City of Yakima, hereinafter the "City," Yakima
County, hereinafter the "County", and The Washington Department of Transportation, hereinafter
"WSDOT". The City, County and WSDOT are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as a "Party"
and collectively as the"Parties."
Recitals
1. The confluence of the Naches River and Cowiche Creek contains significant public infrastructure
necessary for the operations of the Parties and other local governments, private entities, and
residents. This includes federal and state highways; local roads, bridges, and recreational
pathways;irrigation diversions,pipelines and canal systems;communications networks and power
lines; stormwater facilities; municipal water and wastewater utilities; and flood levees and flood
control structures.
2. This infrastructure is located within or adjacent to the dynamic natural system of the Naches River-
Cowiche Creek confluence which includes floodplains, riparian areas, fish and wildlife habitats,
and wetlands. These areas are valuable and sensitive resources that provide important public
benefits that also need protection, conservation,and enhancement.
3. The Parties recognize that the current configuration and combination of infrastructure increases
the risk of flooding to City and County residents,and that reducing short-term and long-term flood
risk to said infrastructure and residents requires a coordinated, multi-agency effort based on an
improved understanding of natural floodplain processes and a continued emphasis on the need
for restoration of floodplain functions and improved habitats for native threatened and
endangered species.
4. The Parties are committed to integrated floodplain management of the entire Naches-Cowiche
confluence, and that commitment has resulted in cooperative Agreement GCB 2981 between
WSDOT and the City to address roles and responsibilities for potential future flood fighting efforts
on Cowiche Creek at HWY 12 and the 40th Avenue/Fruitvale Boulevard interchange.
5. The City and County have entered into an ILA (BOCC346-2018) regarding the implementation of
the Nelson Dam replacement project located at the upstream end of the Naches-Cowiche
confluence which includes the consolidation of four separate irrigation diversions (Naches-
Cowiche, Old Union, Fruitvale, and the City's General Diversion) and enables certain flood risk
reduction and habitat restoration work across the confluence. The Nelson Dam project will
improve sediment transport continuity on this reach of Naches River and includes the design and
construction of a new conveyance pipeline that will cross Cowiche Creek on the south side of the
HWY 12 bridge.
6. The City,County and WSDOT have entered into an ILA(BOCC 154-2020/BOCC 445-2023)regarding
the acquisition, design and permitting for the Naches-Cowiche Flood Risk Reduction project
87
located at the intersection of Cowiche Creek and HWY 12. I his project acquired parcels for future
flood risk reduction and habitat improvement downstream of HWY 12 as well as designed and
permitted a levee setback and canal improvements while coordinating future HWY 12 bridge
replacement and the Nelson Dam Phase 2 pipeline the City is implementing at the same time.
Together these interrelated actions will reduce flood risk to the City of Yakima by updating critical
infrastructure and expanding the floodplain while increasing floodplain habitat for critical
populations of salmonids.
7. The County secured grant funding for the acquisition, preliminary design, and permitting phases
of the Project from the Washington State Department of Ecology through the habitat
enhancement program of the Yakima Basin Integrated Plan (YBIP) (WRYBIP-2019-YaCoPS-00006,
Expired).The County also secured initial construction-phase funding through a competitive grant
awarded through the Floodplains by Design (FbD) program (SEAFBD-2019-YaCoPS-00050,
extended through June 30th, 2027).
8. The County purchased parcels 181309-41008, 181309-41009, 181310-32002 and 181310-32004
for multiple purposes, including implementation of flood risk reduction and habitat restoration.
Since purchase, the County has entered into Land Lease Agreements with Fuller Orchards for
continued agricultural use by private party. The latest Land Lease Agreement, BOCC 006-2025
permits continued use by Fuller Orchards through December 31, 2025, and does allow right of
entry by County for viewing, surveying, holding meetings,site investigations, and other purposes
outlined in Section 10 of said Agreement.
9. Building on the initial coordination from the Naches — Cowiche Flood Risk Reduction and
Floodplain Restoration project the County secured funding for the demolition of the Old Union
and Fruitvale canals as well as lower confluence floodplain restoration work. Funding for this
phase of the Project comes from the Washington State Department of Ecology through the habitat
enhancement program of the Yakima Basin Integrated Plan and through the United States
Department of the Interior through the Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART Aquatic Ecosystem
Restoration Program.
Now, Therefore, pursuant to the legal authority provided by the Interlocal Cooperation Act,
codified at Title 39,Chapter 34 of the Revised Code of Washington State(RCW 39.34),and for the
purpose of defining the responsibilities and duties of the Parties for the implementation of the
Project,the above recitals are incorporated herein as if fully set forth below, and in consideration
of the terms, conditions, covenants, and performances contained herein, and Exhibit A (Map),
Exhibit B (WRYBIP-2325-YaCoPS-00071), Exhibit C (USBR R25AP00152), and Exhibit D ((USBR

Conservation District (NYCD) or local contractors and may include mowing, weed removal, and
herbicide applications. It is anticipated that these activities could occur on City or County property
within the confluence depending on site vegetation conditions, restoration priorities, and the
available funding.

planning, design, and permitting efforts.
e. The City will provide for timely review and comment on the draft Project documents prepared by
the County or consultants working on the Project.
f. The City will continue to maintain the existing right bank levee on Cowiche Creek until the setback

easement will also need to include provisions for a right turn out onto HWY 12 eastbound.
g. WSDOT agrees that the intent is to design a park in the Cowiche Creek/Naches River confluence
which will require access via Clover Lane.This action may require modifications or improvements
to the HWY 12/Clover Lane intersection to preserve the safety and efficiency of the highway.
