Use of this route, for this purpose, will be Monday through Friday, and between the hours of 7am and 5pm.Other truck traffic associated with the Elwha Water Facilities (EWF) has been ongoing and will continue as long as the Elwha Water Treatment Plant (part of the EWF) is in use. The terms of this use are defined in a 2007 Memorandum of Understanding between Clallam County and the National Park Service. The EWTP is a component of the Elwha Water Facilities (EWF,) one of several mitigation projects built to protect Elwha River water users from impacts associated with high sediment flows related to removing two dams on the Elwha River. |
