Date of Meeting        December 8, 2020
Maritime Innovation Center Construction Authorization



December 8, 2020

Advancing the Maritime Innovation Center
Seeking authorization to execute an interagency agreement with Washington
State Dept. of Commerce to accept a $5M grant from the Clean Energy Fund
Program to support the construction of the Maritime Innovation Center (MInC)
As part of this agreement Commerce is asking the Port to formalize support for the project
by authorizing construction of the MInC
Staff will add an additional authorization step for the MInC and come back to commission to
authorize funding for the project when we are ready to start construction
No funding requested at this time
Part of 2019-2023 Capital Improvement Plan

Vision: Washington State becomes a world leading hub for sustainable maritime and ocean industries...            2

TOTAL ESTIMATED PROJECT COSTS        $16 M        100%

* The pre-60% Project Cost is based on a cost estimate developed post 30% Design, and pre 60% Design, which carries a level of uncertainty
that will progressively reduce as design reaches full definition. The project has been included in the Port of Seattle's approved 2021-2025
CIP with a total project cost of $16,000,000.

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
