Water The proposed site is currently connected to the City of Yelm water system. No additional improvements should be required for this site under this proposal. If additional water connections are required based on the proposed use the commercial water connections are based on a consumption rate of 900 gallons per a month and are charged at a rate of $1,500 per connection (fee subject to change) inside the city limits. An engineers estimate for water usage will be required as part of the civil plan submission. Water connection fees are payable at building permit issuance. An irrigation meter may be installed, provided an approved backflow prevention device is provided. As sewer use fees are calculated based on water usage, an irrigation meter could lower monthly sewer bills. All commercial buildings and irrigation systems are required to provide for cross-connection control through the provisions of a back flow prevention device installed on the water services. A list of approved devices can be found at Chapter 246-290-490 WAC. Sewer TC \l1 " This site is currently utilizing a Thurston County onsite sewer system.
