Andy,
As we discussed that is my interpretation. The fence will be covered under land use review and
permits.

Subject: PSE Yelm Substation Building Permit Exemptions
Hi Gary
Pursuant to our conversation, PSE is in the preliminary stages of design for expansion of the Yelm
substation. PSE understands that we will be required to complete SEPA, Special Use Permit and
Clearing & Grading Permit requirements.
PSE would like to confirm that foundations and electrical equipment are exempt from building permit
requirements from the City of Yelm pursuant to IBC 105.2.3 as stated below:
105.2.3 Public Service Agencies. A permit shall not be required for the installation, alteration, or
repair of generation, transmission, distribution or metering or other related equipment that is under
the ownership and control of public service agencies by established right.
Let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to your response.
