The City of Burlington is proposing to acquire an interruptible water right to irrigate sports fields and landscaping at Skagit River Park. Water will be used to irrigate approximately 71 acres of park land. Construction of the associated irrigation system will involve excavation, trenching, and the installation of approximately 5,660 feet of pipe along with associated pumps, generators, and water intakes. Two intake locations are pro- posed. A Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) may be required from the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). Shoreline and grading permits will be required from the City of Burlington. In addition the project will require the preparation of a floodplain habitat assessment, fish and wildlife habitat conservation area assessment, and an inadvertent discovery plan for archaeological and historic resource protection.
