  Don Owings, a department area engineer, said the plans for the Salmon Creek piece "were 90 percent done" when design work was stopped.Nevertheless, that last 10 percent represents thousands of hours of work.
  
  Friday morning, officials organized a media event to promote the "It's Your Nickel" plan.While politicians, administrators and high-powered business types touted and spouted, and a couple of reporters dutifully wrote it all down, the real labor of readying the first huge project was being done by somebody else.
  
  Owings made that clear during Friday's press session.
  
  He and engineer Chuck Ruhsenberger were called to the front of the audience Friday by MacDonald, who tagged them "the accountability team" those who prove to the public that the work will get done on time and within budget.
  
  Both looked like they would rather be someplace else on a dusty highway project somewhere, for example.Owings eyed the crowd almost warily and said, "It's not us.
  ...
  If all goes as planned, by tonight the war room will be shut down and returned to its prior status as a conference room, said Owings.

  "The intent of this is to get the public involved," said pro-ject engineer Don Owings."People will have had time to notice more problem areas and come up with suggestions, and we want to be sure to capture them as well."
  
  While funding for improvements is by no means certain, Owings hopes to have a final list of projects by June.
  
  Transportation staff collected dozens of comments in January.Enough of them involved enforcement issues -- speed limits and what one participant called "insane passing" -- that a Washington State Patrol representative will attend Tuesday's session to answer questions.

  RAIN MISSES I-5 PAVING WORK
  SPRINKLES WON'T STAND... - [Cached Version]

  While weather is expected to be paving-friendly for the rest of the job, "the week's not over," said Don Owings, project engineer.
  
  Last night, crews were expected to pave the right lane; today and tonight the work will move to the right shoulder and auxiliary (fourth) lane areas.Remaining areas will be done Thursday and Friday.
  
  The work will add a 3-inch layer of asphalt, called a "leveling course," that will take most of the bumpiness out of the ride between 78th Street and the new Discovery Trail pedestrian bridge.
  
  This week's work will affect only the southbound lanes, as most of the new northbound segment already has its leveling course.
