Sammamish Plateau Diversion
The Sammamish Plateau Diversion Project will build new wastewater infrastructure to serve the growing East Lake Sammamish area.
Project description
The project includes new underground pipes in the East Lake Sammamish area and upgrades to the York Pump Station near Redmond.
This project will help WTD to expand its services and meet future wastewater needs.
Project update
May 12, 2025
Crews are finishing survey work in the Inglewood Hill area and are expected to wrap up in May. The next round of field research is planned for summer 2025.
The project team is continuing research as we look at options for new wastewater infrastructure in the East Lake Sammamish area. When King County expands the regional system in new locations, our project teams do extensive work behind the scenes and on the ground. This work informs project options and how a project might be built.
We look forward to sharing more information with the community in summer 2025. Watch for email updates and invitations to learn more and give input and feedback.
We want to hear from you - please take our short survey!
King County’s project team wants to get to know you and your community better. By understanding your needs, we can serve you more effectively during the design and construction phases of this project. Please share your feedback with us by completing this survey. We expect that this survey will take about 10 minutes to complete.
We have two different surveys: one for community members and one for local businesses. If you are both a community member and a local business owner in the project area along East Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast (see map below), please fill out both surveys.
- Community members: publicinput.com/kcwtdsammcomsurvey
- Businesses: publicinput.com/kcwtdsammbussurvey
If you prefer to provide the information in the survey over the phone or by other means, please contact Monica Van der Vieren at 206-477-5502 or monica.vandervieren@kingcounty.gov.
