West Duwamish Wet Weather Storage: Post-Design Survey

King County Wastewater Treatment Division (WTD) would like to hear from you!

King County expects to begin construction for the West Duwamish Wet Weather Storage project this year. Thank you to all the community members who contributed time and provided input during the project design process.

We will build a 1.25-million-gallon underground storage tank near the intersection of Southwest Michigan Street and Second Avenue Southwest. During heavy storms, the tank will hold sewage and polluted stormwater until it can be treated at West Point Treatment Plant, preventing overflows into the Duwamish River. This project will help control combined sewer overflows by limiting them to no more than one time per year, based on a twenty-year rolling average.

Through planning and design, community members have shared valuable input that has helped shape the look and feel of the project facilities, fencing panel art, King County’s support in greening the neighborhood and workforce development efforts. As we prepare for construction, we want your feedback on our community engagement efforts during the planning and design processes. Your responses will help shape our community engagement during construction and inform King County’s approach on other clean water projects. Visit kingcounty.gov/westduwamish-cso to learn about the project and our public outreach efforts since 2016.

This survey will be available online until February 28. All survey questions are optional.
