Geneva Bioretention Pilot Project
Database ID No. 20-006
Construction Funding Years : 2023
Project Narrative:
This project will utilize a Washington State Department of Ecology grant to install and monitor the performance of new
bioretention soil media. The existing swales are approaching the end of the media's effective life. New media will be
required to replace the existing depleted media in the near future.
A portion of the existing swales will be used to test the new media, which is designed to reduce the amount of phosphorus
and other pollutants entering the lake. Preliminary testing has shown the new media is much more effective in removal of
phosphorus than more traditional media. If tests show significant improvement over the original media, the media will be
adopted as a Best Management Practice (BMP) and be included in the updated WDOE Stormwater Manual.
Project Status:
Design is occurring in 2021-2022, construction in 2023, and monitoring performance in 2024-2026.

Project Narrative:
The December 20, 2018 "Solstice Eve" windstorm caused damage to the stormwater outfall on Birch Point installed as
part of the Charel Terrace project in 2011. In March 2019 a "Major Disaster Declaration" that covered Whatcom County
for the December storm was granted. In December 2019, the Consolidated Resource Center approved the Washington
State Emergency Management Division's $110,887 request for Architectural & Engineering Services to assess the site
and develop conceptual design options. An RFP was advertised by Whatcom County in March 2020 and Herrera
Environmental Consultants completed a preliminary study that assessed the outfall stabilization approaches to maintain a
functional outfall. From this study, a temporary repair will be constructed in early fall 2022 to secure the catch basin to the
bluff and reposition the outfall tee. The permanent repair will be constructed in the summer of 2023, which may consist of
hard armoring of the slope to protect cultural resources.

Shallow Shore Culvert Relocation
Database ID No. 18-007
Construction Funding Years : 2023
Project Narrative:
The existing cross -culvert located at 326 Shallow Shore Drive discharges onto the western edge of the lakefront parcel.
During heavy storm events, discharge from the cross -culvert overwhelms an existing private culvert which conveys
stormwater to the lake, resulting in regular flooding and inundation throughout the rainy season.
The County currently has an undeveloped right-of-way (Bass Street) to the lake approximately 300 feet north of the
existing outfall along Shallow Shore Drive which could serve as an alternate to the existing outfall. The project will
evaluate water quality alternatives that may be installed prior to discharging in Lake Samish.

Project Narrative:
The project is located along Truck Road about 0.3 miles easterly from Mt. Baker Highway (SR 542). During high-water
events of the 2017/2018 winter, the North Fork Nooksack River eroded the unprotected bank of Truck Road to within 13
feet of the roadway surface. This prompted an emergency project to construct a passive riprap revetment underneath a
section of the roadway to provide immediate protection. Flooding during 2020 eroded the remaining bank exposing the
recently constructed riprap revetment and destabilizing a portion of the north bound lane. Jersey barriers were placed by
county crews to block off this lane to traffic. Additional erosion sustained the November 2021 floods, threatened the road
downstream of the previous damage area. The FCZD undertook an emergency project to address the immediate threat to
truck road. Additional work is needed to provide environmental mitigation for that action and to repair and realign the
damaged section of road.
Project Status:
The FCZD has completed the emergency repair and is currently designing and permitting the associated Phase 2 project

Project Narrative:
2023-2028 Six -Year WRIP
Item No. 42
High Creek flooding damaged nearby homes and closed Mount Baker Highway in the mid-1990's. A legal settlement
resulting from that event directs Whatcom County to prepare a creek management plan. Sediment management in the
watershed including the 3400 feet of County owned right of way east of Kendall Creek is an important plan element along
with fish habitat mitigation. State permits for future maintenance dredging are dependent on consistency with the final
management plan. A management plan was developed and recommended the construction of two sediment traps, one
sited upstream of Mount Baker Highway to trap coarser material and one by the confluence with Kendall Creek to trap
finer material. The sediment traps were constructed in 2018. The project provides for the annual clean out of those
sediment traps.
Project Status:
