ʻO kahi hoʻolālā hoʻolālā ʻeono ma ke kahawai ʻo Snohomish (me 1,250 mau hale noho lehulehu, nā hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, nā hale kūʻai liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi, nā keʻena lapaʻau hiki ke hiki, nā hōkele a me nā hale keʻena) e uhi kokoke i ka 70 ʻeka holoʻokoʻa o ka pae ʻāina mua.Aia ka waiwai ma ka hikina o I-5 ma waena o ke alanui 41st Street roundabout a me 36th Street, a ke kūkulu nei ʻo Shelter Holdings i ka waiwai i ka pae aʻe.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Randy Loveless, he hope ʻenekinia ma Everett: "ʻO kāu ʻōpala maʻamau kēia, hiki ke loaʻa nā ʻano ʻōpala a pau i hana ʻia e ke kanaka."

I kēia mau makahiki e hiki mai ana, e hoʻomau ka hana ʻana o nā ʻāina hoʻopaʻa ʻāina i kahi nui o ke kinoea methane.Akā, ua lohi nui kona helu hana, a e hoʻomau i ka emi ʻana i ka manawa.I kēia manawa, ʻo ka hoʻopuka ʻana o ka ʻāina he 15% o kona kiʻekiʻe ma waena o ka hopena o nā makahiki 1970.I ka makahiki 2030, pono e hoemi ia keia helu i 10%.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Lovelace, ʻehā mau ala e hoʻopilikia ai i ke kaiapuni a me ke kanaka ke koena ʻōpala.
Hiki i nā meaʻai i loko o ka ʻōpala ke komo i loko o ka wai lepo a i ʻole e holoi ʻia i loko o nā kahawai a me nā wai ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka wai ua.Hiki i ka uhi lepo ke kōkua i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i kēia mau pilikia.
A laila aia ke kinoea mai ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana i nā mea i loko o ka pae ʻāina.Hoʻopaʻa ʻia ke kinoea methane i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma ka palaho ʻana i nā mea olaola e kahi pūnaewele o nā paipu i hoʻokomo ʻia ma lalo o ka uhi lepo.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Loveless, ʻo kēia kahi ʻōnaehana ʻūhā nui e hiki ke omo i ke kinoea mai ka lepo.
ʻElua mau wahi hoʻoheheʻe-ʻo kēlā me kēia ma nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua o ka pae ʻāina kahiko.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Loveless ua hoʻoponopono paʻa ʻia lākou e nā kūlana federal.
Nui nā ʻōnaehana blower i noho ma kahi o 20 mau makahiki.Akā, i ka ulu ʻana o ka muliwai, e hoʻomaikaʻi ke kūlanakauhale a hoʻonui i kona hiki.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Lovelace, ua hele wale ka hapa nui o ka poʻe ma mua o ka waihona metala haʻahaʻa i loko o kāna peni kaulahao me ka nānā ʻole.
Ua hoʻolimalima ke kūlanakauhale i kahi kūkākūkā e nānā pono i nā turbine makani.I Dekemaba, ua ʻae ka ʻaha kūkā o ke kūlanakauhale i kahi ʻaelike $150,000, i uku ʻia e ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Everett a me ka Moku'āina ʻOihana o Ecology e nānā i ka ʻōnaehana i nā makahiki ʻekolu e hiki mai ana.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Loveless: "He ala kēia e hana hou ai i kahi ʻāpana o ko mākou kaiāulu i haʻalele ʻia.""Eia kekahi, maʻemaʻe maoli ke komo ʻana."
