| Short Description |
The Water Quality Joint Development Act (Chapter RCW 70.150) provides public bodies, such as cities, counties, and municipal or quasi-municipal corporations, with an additional means for financing, developing, and operating water pollution control facilities by securing services from a public or private service provider. A contractual agreement commits both parties to providing a facility-based environmental wastewater treatment service. The statute includes procedural requirements for agreements obligating service providers to design, finance, construct, own, operate, or maintain water pollution control facilities. The public body entering into the agreement with the service provider is responsible for assuring that all procedural and other requirements are met. (Also see abstract below) | |

| Abstract | Long Description |
The Water Quality Joint Development Act (Chapter RCW 70.150) provides public bodies, such as cities, counties, and municipal or quasi-municipal corporations, with an additional means for financing, developing, and operating water pollution control facilities by securing services from a public or private service provider. A contractual agreement commits both parties to providing a facility-based environmental wastewater treatment service. The statute includes procedural requirements for agreements obligating service providers to design, finance, construct, own, operate, or maintain water pollution control facilities. The public body entering into the agreement with the service provider is responsible for assuring that all procedural and other requirements are met. Public bodies should consult the statutes and regulations listed below, as well as their legal counsel, to assist them in making sound decisions. This document provides supplementary information regarding contracting for wastewater services, financial assistance, and the scope of the Department of Ecology′s (Ecology) review of these agreements. |
