Director Sonya Bumpus presented the Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council’s fourth‑quarter cost allocation update covering April 1 through June 30, 2025.
Bumpus read the allocation percentages for listed facilities: Columbia Generating Station 20 percent; Horse Heaven 13 percent; Chehalis 6 percent; Grays Harbor 6 percent; Carriger Solar 5 percent; GoldenEye 5 percent; Hop Hill 5 percent; Wallula Gap 5 percent; Watoma 5 percent; Columbia Solar 4 percent; Oestria (referred to as Austria in packet) 4 percent; Desert Claim Wind 4 percent; Goose Prairie 4 percent; Kittitas Valley 4 percent; Wildhorse 4 percent; Badger Mountain 2 percent; High Top 2 percent; and WNP‑1 2 percent.
Bumpus concluded the update after reading the list and invited questions; no queries were raised.
Why it matters: Cost allocation percentages determine how FSEC spreads administrative and processing costs among active site certification projects for the quarter noted; applicants and partner agencies monitor these allocations for billing and budgeting.
