PROJECT OVERVIEW
DESIGN CRITERIA
The stormwater management facilities have been designed to meet the 2022 City of Renton
Surface Water Design Manual (SWDM) with reference to the 2021 King County Surface Water
Design Manual.
2022 MANUAL REQUIREMENTS
Duration Analysis: Peak Rate Flow Control Standard
(match existing conditions for the 2-,
10-, and 100-year peak storm events)
Water Quality Menu: Enhanced WQ
Downstream Analysis: ¼ mile
Since the project proposes more than 2,000 SF of new plus replaced impervious area, a Full
Drainage Review will be required. This project is subject to all nine core requirements and all six
special requirements listed in the 2022 City of Renton SWDM.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The proposed project is located at the corner of 8th St. N and Park Ave N in Renton, Washington
(King County) and is part of the Phase 2 development for the Topgolf project LUA19-000094, further
referred to as “Topgolf”. The site is currently vacant and is comprised of recently constructed
parking area and pad-ready building sites along the N 8th Street frontage and Park Avenue N
frontage. The total disturbed area of the Renton Park, LLC development is approximately 0.795
acres. There are no significant trees on site. The site is mapped as a high seismic hazard are and the
southern portion of the site in located in the Downtown Wellhead Protection Area Zone 2. This
zone prohibits the use of open facilities for stormwater control or otherwise, which are not being
proposed as part of the development.
On-site soils are comprised of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits, which consist of very
soft to stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content.
Groundwater was observed as shallow as 4 feet from existing ground surface. The site will not be
conducive to stormwater management by infiltration.
This project is not located within 100 feet of a stream or wetland, nor is it within 200 feet of Black
River, Cedar River, Springbook Creek, May Creek nor Lake Washington. See figure 1 below for the
existing conditions map.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 5
Figure 1: Existing Conditions Map
The site is bound by North 8th Street to the north, Park Avenue North to the east, the Topgolf
development west, and office with parking structures to the south. It is zoned UC-C, Urban Center
Design District C. All adjacent properties surrounding the site are similarly zoned as UC-C.
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report by GeoEngineers, Inc., dated October 29, 2019, on-site
soils are comprised of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits, which consist of very soft to
stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content.
Groundwater was observed as shallow as 4 feet from existing ground surface. The site will not be
conducive to stormwater management by means of infiltration.
PRE-DEVELOPMENT STORMWATER RUNOFF
The project site is part of the Topgolf east basin. Storm water from this site is conveyed to catch
basins via drainage swales. These catch basins are part of the Topgolf development which
discharges to the municipal storm system in Park Ave N., see the Downstream Analysis section of
this report for further details.
PROPOSED CONDITIONS
The proposed development for Renton Park will consist of an approximately 7,000 SF multi-tenant
building consisting of a mix of retail and restaurant uses. Main access to this site will be from a
driveway off Park Avenue N. An on-site drive aisle will connect this development through the
adjacent Topgolf facility to Logan Ave N.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 6
It is understood that all necessary right-of-way dedications and associated improvements were
completed under the Topgolf development. The new driveway at Park Avenue North and the
connection to the existing water main in Park Avenue North will necessitate limited right-of-way
work.
Figure 2: Developed Conditions Map
POST-DEVELOPMENT STORMWATER RUNOFF
The development of this site was taken into account during the design of the Topgolf facility.
Flow control for the development was not required (see below) and the water quality systems
were designed to handle the site at 90% impervious pollution generating surface.
Stormwater will be managed on-site in accordance with the standards of the 2022 City of
Renton SWDM. Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak
Rate Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area. Per this standard, flow control is not
required if the proposed developed condition will not generate more than 0.15-cfs increase in
the 100-year peak flow under existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project
is compacted dirt coverage with pad ready building sites. These areas have been modeled as
lawn. The development of this site results in an approximately 0.14 cfs increase in stormwater
runoff in the 100-year peak flow which is below the 0.15 cfs threshold. Flow control, therefore,
is not required.
Enhanced water quality treatment for the recently constructed on-site parking lot area is
provided by a Biopod Biofilter unit that was installed as part of the Topgolf development. As
stated above, the Biopod was designed to account for 90% pollution generating impervious
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 7
surface coverage over the site. This project falls below the 90% threshold, therefore the Biopod
has sufficient capacity. The Biopod is an approved proprietary facility for both the 2017 manual
when it was designed and the current 2022 manual. The discharge to the municipal storm
drainage system is located at the intersection of North 8th Street and Park Avenue North.

DRAINAGE BASIN, SUBBASINS, AND SITE CHARACTERISTICS
DRAINAGE BASIN
The project site is located within the East Lake Washington – Renton drainage basin. There are no
special stormwater management requirements for this drainage basin. See Figure 4 below for a
map of the drainage basin.
SUBBASINS
Two site sub-basins are present in the existing conditions.

NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 16
SOILS
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report by GeoEngineers, Inc., dated October 29, 2019, the on-site
soils consist of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits. The fill was encountered in each of
the borings. The fill was observed below the pavement or topsoil, and generally consisted of loose
to dense sand with varying silt and gravel content. A thin layer of stiff sandy silt with occasional
gravel was encountered within the fill at boring B-1. The thickness of fill ranged from 4 feet up to
approximately 5 feet. Alluvium was observed below the fill. The alluvium typically consists of very
soft to stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content.
Thin layers of peat were observed within the alluvium layer at various boring locations. The
alluvium soil observed at the site includes two sub-layers; upper loose to medium dense alluvium,
and lower medium dense to dense alluvium.
Groundwater was observed on-site and is located at depths of approximately 4 feet to 12.5 feet
below the existing ground surface, which corresponds to approximately Elevations 17.5 feet to 25
feet based on NAVD 88 vertical datum. Based on this, the geotechnical engineer suggests a design
groundwater elevation of 25 feet.
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report and Geotechnical Infiltration Feasibility Evaluation, the
feasibility of infiltration was assessed at the site through review of near surface soil conditions and
groundwater levels. Due to a relatively shallow groundwater table, at approximately 4 feet below
grade, and the presence of low permeability silt soils near the ground surface, the use of small- or
large-scale infiltration facilities is not feasible at this site. See Special Reports and Studies in
Appendix B and section on on-site stormwater management BMP’s further below for additional
discussion.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 17
CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY
As required by the 2022 City of Renton SWDM, this project is subject to a Full Drainage Review.
Therefore, the storm drainage design for this project is required to comply with, or explain
exemptions for, all nine (9) Core Requirements as well as all six (6) Special Requirements. The
applicable requirements have been met as follows:
CORE REQUIREMENTS
Core Requirement #1: Discharge at the Natural Location
All surface and storm water runoff from a project must be discharged at the natural location so as
not to be diverted onto or away from downstream properties. The manner in which runoff is
discharged from the project site must not create a significant adverse impact to downhill properties
or drainage systems.
Response: Runoff will be collected on-site and discharged into the existing municipal conveyance
system, to which the site currently discharges. No downstream impacts are anticipated.
Core Requirement #2: Offsite Analysis
All proposed projects must submit an offsite analysis report that assesses potential offsite drainage
impacts associated with development of the project site and propose appropriate mitigations of
those impacts. The initial permit submittal shall include, at a minimum, a Level 1 downstream
analysis as described in Section 1.2.2.1 of the 2022 Manual.
Response: A Level 1 Downstream Analysis was completed for this project, dated April 19, 2018, as
part of the Topgolf Project. The requirements for a Level 1 downstream analysis have not changed
from the 2017 manual for the 2022 manual, therefore the Topgolf Downstream analysis is valid. See
the Offsite Analysis section for details.
Core Requirement #3: Flow Control Facilities
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide onsite flow control facilities
to mitigate the impacts of storm and surface water runoff generated by new impervious surface,
new pervious surface, and replaced impervious surface targeted for flow mitigation as specified in
the following sections. Flow control facilities must be provided and designed to perform as
specified by the area-specific flow control facility requirement in Section 1.2.3.1 and in accordance
with the applicable flow control facility implementation requirements in Section 1.2.3.2.
Response: Stormwater will be managed on-site in accordance with the standards of the 2022 City of
Renton SWDM. Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak Rate
Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area. Per this standard, flow control is not required if the
proposed developed condition will not generate more than 0.15-cfs increase in the 100-year peak
flow under existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project is compacted dirt
coverage with pad ready building sites. These areas have been modeled as lawn. The development
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 18
of this site results in an approximately 0.14 cfs increase in stormwater runoff in the 100-year peak
flow which is below the 0.15 cfs threshold. Flow control, therefore, is not required.
Stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating parking areas will be routed to a Biopod Biofilter
unit prior to discharge to the municipal conveyance system in Park Avenue N.
Core Requirement #4: Conveyance System
All engineered conveyance system elements for proposed projects must be analyzed, designed, and
constructed to provide a minimum level of protection against overtopping, flooding, erosion, and
structural failure as specified in Sections 1.2.4.1, 1.2.4.2, and 1.2.4.3 of the 2021 King County
Surface Water Design Manual.
Response: Spill control requirements will be met per section 1.2.4.3.G by installation of a tee section
at SDCB#20 of the Topgolf project per section 4.2.1.1.A. Please see the Conveyance System Analysis
and Design section of this report for more information.
Core Requirement #5: Erosion and Sediment Control
All proposed projects that will clear, grade, or otherwise disturb the site must provide erosion and
sediment controls to prevent, to the maximum extent practicable, the transport of sediment from
the project site to downstream drainage facilities, water resources, and adjacent properties. All
proposed projects that will conduct construction activities onsite or offsite must provide
stormwater pollution prevention and spill controls to prevent, reduce, or eliminate the discharge of
pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or watercourses. To prevent sediment
transport and pollutant discharges as well as other impacts related to land-disturbing and
construction activities, Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) measures and Stormwater Pollution
Prevention and Spill Control (SWPPS) measures that are appropriate to the project site must be
applied through a comprehensive Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (CSWPP) plan as
described in Sections 1.2.5.1 and 1.2.5.3 and shall perform as described in Section 1.2.5.2. In
addition, these measures, both temporary and permanent, shall be implemented consistent with
the requirements in Section 1.2.5.3 that apply to the proposed project.
Response: Construction stormwater pollution prevention measures are an integral part of the
project construction documents. These measures will include methods to reduce erosion of on-site
site soils and to prevent sediment from inadvertently leaving the project site, such as silt fencing,
inlet protection, and marking clearing limits. Erosion and sediment control measures will be
designed in conformance with the 2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual standards.
Please see the CSWPPP Analysis and Design section of this report for more information.
Core Requirement #6: Maintenance and Operations
Maintenance and operation of all drainage facilities is the responsibility of the applicant or property
owner, except those facilities for which King County is granted an easement, tract, or right-of-way
and officially assumes maintenance and operation. Drainage facilities must be maintained and
operated in compliance with Appendix A, or other maintenance standards as approved by the City.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 19
Response: Please see the Operation and Maintenance Guidelines section of this report for more
information.
Core Requirement #7: Financial Guarantees and Liability
All drainage facilities constructed or modified for projects (except flow control facilities to be
privately maintained) must comply with the financial guarantee requirements and the liability
requirements of the City. There are two types of financial guarantees for projects constructing or
modifying drainage facilities; the drainage facilities restoration and site stabilization guarantee, and
the drainage defect and maintenance guarantee.
Response: A Bond Quantity worksheet will be provided as an appendix to this report under a future
submittal.
Core Requirement #8: Water Quality
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide water quality (WQ) facilities
to treat the runoff from new and replaced pollution-generating impervious surfaces and pollution-
generating pervious surfaces targeted for treatment. These facilities shall be selected from one of
the area-specific WQ menus described in Section 1.2.8.1 and implemented according to the
applicable WQ implementation requirements in Section 1.2.8.2.
Response: This site is subject to Enhanced Water Quality Treatment, which will be provided by
means of a BioPod Biofilter Unit that was installed as part of the Topgolf project. The Topgolf project
assumed 90% PGIS for the phase 2 development. This project falls below that threshold, therefore
the Biopod has sufficient capacity. The BioPod Biofilter Unit has Ecology GULD approval in both the
2017 Manual in which it was designed and the 2022 Manual in which this project falls, to provide
enhanced treatment for the offline water quality flow rate as determined by WWHM2012. Please
see the Flow Control, LID, And Water Quality Facilities Analysis and Design section of the Topgolf
report included in Appendix H of this report for detailed modeling inputs and calculations.
Core Requirement #9: On-Site BMPs
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide onsite flow control BMPs to
mitigate the impacts of storm and surface water runoff generated by new impervious surface, new
pervious surface, existing impervious surfaces, and replaced impervious surface targeted for
mitigation as specified in the following sections. Flow control BMPs must be selected and applied
according to the basic requirements, procedures, and provisions detailed in this section and the
design specifications for each BMP in Appendix C, Section C.2.
Flow control BMPs are methods and designs for dispersing, infiltrating, or otherwise reducing or
preventing development-related increases in runoff at or near the sources of those increases. Flow
control BMPs include, but are not limited to, preservation and use of native vegetated surfaces to
fully disperse runoff; use of other pervious surfaces to disperse runoff; roof downspout infiltration;
permeable pavements; bioretention; limited infiltration systems; and reduction of development
footprint.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 20
Response: Soil amendment is proposed to meet on-site BMPs requirement. Please see the Flow
Control, LID, And Water Quality Facilities Analysis and Design section of this and the Topgolf report,
included in Appendix H of this report, for more information.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
Special Requirement #1: Other Adopted Area-Specific Requirements
The drainage requirements of adopted MDPs, BPs, SCPs, LMPs, HMPs, SDFPs shall be applied in
addition to the drainage requirements of the 2022 Manual unless otherwise specified in the
adopted regulation. Where conflicts occur between the two, the drainage requirements of the
adopted area-specific regulation shall supersede those in the 2021 Manual.
Response: There are no known adopted area-specific requirements that apply to the proposed
development.
Special Requirement #2: Flood Hazard Area Delineation
Floodplains and floodways are subject to inundation during extreme events. The 100-year
floodplains are delineated in order to minimize flooding impacts to new development and to
prevent aggravation of existing flooding problems by new development. Regulations and
restrictions concerning development within a 100-year floodplain are found in the Sensitive Areas
Ordinance.
Response: Per the most current FIRM Map, shown in the 100-year flood/overflow condition section
of this report, the project site does not lie within the 100-year floodplain.
Special Requirement #3: Flood Protection Facilities
Developing sites protected by levees and revetments require a high level of confidence in their
structural integrity and performance. Proper analysis, design, and construction are necessary to
protect against the potentially catastrophic consequences if such facilities should fail.
Response: The project site does not contain levees, revetments, or berm protection.
Special Requirement #4: Source Control
Water quality source controls prevent rainfall and runoff water from coming into contact with
pollutants, thereby reducing the likelihood that pollutants will enter public waterways and violate
water quality standards and County stormwater discharge permit limits. The County may require
mandatory source controls at any time through formal code enforcement if complaints or studies
reveal water quality violations or problems.
Response: All applicable non-structural Source Control BMPs will be implemented as outlined in the
2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual and the 2021 King County Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Manual. These include Required Best Management Practices for all Properties with
Commercial Activities, Storage of Solid Wastes and Food Wastes (Including Cooking Grease),
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 21
Cleaning or Washing of Food Service Areas and Equipment, Landscaping Activities, Vehicle and
Equipment Parking and Storage, and Sidewalk Maintenance.
Special Requirement #5: Oil Control
Projects proposing to develop or redevelop a high-use site must provide oil controls in addition to
any other water quality controls. Such sites typically generate high concentrations of oil due to high
traffic turnover or the frequent transfer of oil.
Response: A high-use site is defined in the 2021 KCSWDM as “a commercial or industrial site that
has an expected average daily traffic (ADT) count equal to or greater than 100 vehicles per 1,000
square feet of gross building area”. Per the email from the Transpo Group located in Appendix B,
the project is not considered high-use; therefore, oil control in not proposed.
Special Requirement #6: Aquifer Protection Area
If a proposed project is located within an aquifer protection area, the project is required to
determine and delineate applicable components on the project’s site improvement plan.
Response: A small portion at the southeastern corner of the overall phase 2 project site is within
Zone 2 of the Aquifer Protection Area. This zone may require open facilities and conveyance systems
to have a liner in accordance with the design criteria in Section 6.2.4. and Section 1.2.4.3.
respectively of the 2022 SWDM. No open facilities are being proposed as part of the development.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 22
OFFSITE ANALYSIS
An offsite analysis for this project’s discharge area was performed as part of the Topgolf
project. The requirements for the offsite analysis have not changed since this analysis was
performed and is therefore valid with the 2022 Manual. Please refer to the offsite analysis
section of the Topgolf TIR included as Appendix H of this report. This project will be part of
Conveyance System 2 in the Topgolf TIR Offsite Analysis, which is included as Appendix H of this
report.

ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
EXISTING SITE HYDROLOGY
The project site will disturb approximately 0.8 acres and consists of a vacant lot with pad-ready
building sites. Runoff from the existing site is conveyed via drainage swales to catch basins from the
Topgolf project.
DEVELOPED SITE HYDROLOGY
The developed surface conditions areas are noted in Table 1a. See Figure 5 Developed Conditions
Map.

FLOW CONTROL SYSTEM
As stated above, the proposed development of this site does not result in a greater than 0.15 cfs
increase in the 100-year peak flow. Therefore, flow control is not required.
WATER QUALITY SYSTEM
The Topgolf project has accounted for this development within its design. The site was modeled as
90% impervious pollution-generating surface for water quality design. The proposed site does not
exceed this threshhold, therefore, the existing Biopod will have sufficient capacity. Please refer to
the Topgolf TIR, which is included as Appendix H of this report, for further details on the water
quality system. The installed Biopod facility is an approved proprietary device per the 2017 Manual
when it was designed and in the current 2022 Manual.

CONVEYANCE SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
CONVEYANCE CALCULATIONS
The Topgolf project assumed this development as 100% impervious for conveyance calculations.
This site does not exceed that threshold and can therefore safely discharge into the provided stubs.
Please refer to the Topgolf TIR for detailed conveyance calculations.
The runoff from this development will discharge into various stormwater stubs from the Topgolf
development. Two of the stubs are 12-inch conveyance pipe and one is 8-inch conveyance pipe. The
peak 100-year flow from the site is 0.4622 cfs as determined using WWHM2012. As demonstrated
in the Manning’s calculation shown in Figure 7 below, an 8-inch pipe is sufficient to handle the peak
flow at a minimum of 0.5%, therefore the larger 12-inch pipe will also be sufficient as shown in
Figure 8.

SPILL CONTROL
As required by the 2022 SWDM Section 1.2.4.3.G, spill control devices will be installed for runoff
from pollution generating impervious surfaces prior discharging from site. Flow restrictor (tee)
sections per Section 4.2.1.1. were installed at SDCB #20 to provide spill control for the east basin
parking lot prior to water quality treatment and subsequent discharge from the site. Refer to the
Topgolf TIR, which is included as Appendix H of this report, for further information.

NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 32
CSWPPP ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
ESC Plan Analysis and Design (Part A)
All erosion and sediment control measures shall be governed by the requirements of Appendix D in
the City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual. A temporary erosion and sedimentation control
plan has been prepared to assist the contractor in complying with these requirements. The Erosion
and Sediment Control (ESC) plan is included with the construction plans.
Erosion Risk Assessment
The degree of erosion risk on the proposed project site is minimal. The following factors contribute
to a low degree of erosion risk:
· Slope across the site is slight. Runoff will not travel at high velocities across the site and,
therefore, will not cause noticeable erosion impacts.
· The site is already stabilized with hard surfaces and the portions that will be removed will
generally create temporary closed depression areas that will trap stormwater runoff.
Construction Sequence and Procedure
The proposed development will include an erosion/sedimentation control plan designed to prevent
sediment-laden run-off from leaving the site during construction. The erosion potential of the site
is influenced by four major factors: soil characteristics, vegetative cover, topography and climate.
Erosion/sedimentation control is achieved by a combination of structural measures, cover
measures, and construction practices that are tailored to fit the specific site.
Prior to the start of any grading activity upon the site, all erosion control measures, including
stabilized construction entrances, shall be installed in accordance with the construction documents.
The best construction practice will be employed to properly clear and grade the site and to
schedule construction activities. The planned construction sequence for the construction of the site
will be provided with a subsequent submittal.
Trapping Sediment
Structural control measures will be used to reduce erosion and retain sediment on the construction
site. The control measures will be selected to fit specific site and seasonal conditions.
The following structural items will be used to control erosion and sedimentation processes:
· Compost socks
· Catch basin inlet sediment protection
· Proper cover measures
Weekly inspection of the erosion control measures will be required during construction. Any
sediment buildup shall be removed and disposed of off-site.
Vehicle tracking of mud off-site shall be avoided. Installation of a stabilized construction entrance
will be installed at a location to enter the site. The entrances are a minimum requirement and may
be supplemented if tracking of mud onto public streets becomes excessive. In the event that mud
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 33
is tracked off site, it shall be swept up and disposed of off-site on a daily basis. Depending on the
amount of tracked mud, a vehicle road sweeper may be required.
Because vegetative cover is the most important form of erosion control, construction practices must
adhere to stringent cover requirements. More specifically, the contractor will not be allowed to
leave soils open for more than 14 days and, in some cases, immediate seeding will be required.
Wet Weather TESC Operating Plan
Work between October 1st and April 30th must adhere to the Wet Season Special Provisions noted in
Section D.2.4.2 in Appendix D of the 2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual.
SWPPS Plan Design (Part B)
A variety of storm water pollutant controls are recommended for this project. Some controls are
intended to function temporarily and will be used as needed for pollutant control during the
construction period. These include temporary sediment barriers such as silt fences. For most
disturbed areas, permanent stabilization will be accomplished by covering the soil with pavement,
building, or vegetation.
The CSWPPP Worksheet Forms are located in Appendix C. Minimum maintenance recording
requirements can be found in 2022 SWDM Section D.2.4.4.
A. Erosion and Sediment Controls
1. Soil Stabilization - The purpose of soil stabilization is to prevent soil from leaving the
site. In the natural condition, soil is stabilized by native vegetation. The primary
technique to be used at this project for stabilizing site soil will be to provide a
protective cover of grass, pavement, or building.
a) See 2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual Section D.2.1.2.6. for
Temporary and Permanent Seeding requirements.
b) Structural Controls – Inlet protection and straw wattles are proposed
to minimize siltation of construction activities.
c) Clearing Limits – Clearing limits are defined by the placement of silt
fence or construction fence.
d) Storm Drain Inlet Protection – Curb and grated inlets are protected
from the intrusion of silt and sediment through a variety of measures
as shown on the Construction Drawings. The primary mechanism is to
place controls in the path of flow sufficient to slow sediment-laden
water to allow settlement of suspended soils before discharging into
the storm sewer. Controls typically provide a secondary benefit by
means of filtration. Grated inlets typically include a sturdy frame
wrapped in silt fence or crushed stone-lined perimeter to slow the
flow of water. Curb inlets typically include crushed stone barriers held
in place with silt fence material or geotextile fabric. Where inlets are
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 34
located in paved areas the contractor shall install filter fabric in the
catch basin.
2. Dewatering Controls
a) The water resulting from construction site de-watering activities must be
treated prior to discharge or disposed of as specified. Accumulated water in
foundation areas, excavations, and utility trenches shall be removed and
disposed of in a manner that does not pollute surface waters or cause
downstream erosion or flooding. See 2022 City of Renton Surface Water
Design Manual Section D.2.1.7. for detailed specifications.
3. Flow Control
a) Onsite flow control facilities and other provisions on the TESC plan sheets aim
to prevent runoff peaks from discharging from the project site during
construction.
4. Protect Existing and Proposed Stormwater Facilities and On-Site BMPs
a) Proposed stormwater facilities and on-site BMPs are separated by a minimum
of seven feet from sanitary sewer facilities and ten feet from water facilities.
5. Maintain Protective BMPs
a) The contractor and designated CESCL professional are responsible for the
implementation, monitoring, adaptation, and continued performance of
protective BMPs throughout construction.
6. Manage the Project
a) The contractor and designated CESCL professional are responsible for the
implementation, monitoring, adaptation, and continued performance of
protective BMPs throughout construction. The TESC plans, SWPPS plan,
CSWPP plan, and technical information report provide a detailed construction
sequence, temporary erosion and sediment control BMP calculations, sizing,
and layout, and a template for an inspection and maintenance program for
the project to successfully manage erosion and sediment control.
See 2022 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual Section D.2.4.5. for Final Stabilization
requirements.
B. Other Pollutant Controls
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 35
Control of sediments has been described previously. Other aspects of this SWPPP are
listed below:
1. Sawcutting and Surfacing – Concrete spillage and concrete discharge to waters
of the state is prohibited. The purpose is to prevent slurry and cuttings from
draining to any natural or constructed drainage conveyance including
stormwater systems. Sawcutting and surfacing operations include sawing,
coring, grinding, roughening, hydro-demolition, bridge and road surfacing.
Do not allow process water generated during hydro-demolition, surface
roughening, or similar operations to drain to any natural or constructed drainage
conveyance. Slurry and cuttings must be vacuumed during cutting and surfacing
operation and shall not remain on permanent concrete or asphalt pavement
overnight.
Dispose of waste material and demolition debris in a manner that does not cause
contamination of water. Slurry and cuttings must be collected, handled, and
disposed at an appropriate disposal site in a manner than does not violate
ground water or surface water quality standards.
2. Dust Control - Construction traffic must enter and exit the site at the stabilized
construction entrance. The purpose is to trap dust and mud that would otherwise
be carried off-site by construction traffic.
Water trucks will be used as needed during construction to reduce dust
generated on the site. Dust control must be provided by the General Contractor
to a degree that is acceptable to the owner, and in compliance with applicable
local and state dust control regulations. After construction, the site will be
stabilized (as described elsewhere), which will reduce the potential for dust
generation.
Chemical treatments have not been approved for this site. The Civil Engineer of
Record must be contacted if these are requested to be utilized.
Solid Waste Disposal - No solid materials, including building materials, are
allowed to be discharged from the site with stormwater. All solid waste, including
disposable materials incidental to the major construction activities, must be
collected and placed in containers. The containers will be emptied as necessary
by a contract trash disposal service and hauled away from the site. Substances
that have the potential for polluting surface and/or groundwater must be
controlled by whatever means necessary in order to ensure that they do not
discharge from the site. As an example, special care must be exercised during
equipment fueling and servicing operations. If a spill occurs, it must be contained
and disposed so that it will not flow from the site or enter groundwater, even if
this requires removal, treatment, and disposal of soil. In this regard, potentially
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 36
polluting substances should be handled in a manner consistent with the impact
they represent.
3. Water Source - Non-storm water components of site discharge must be clean
water. Water used for construction which discharges from the site must originate
from a public water supply or private well approved by the State Health
Department. Water used for construction that does not originate from an
approved public supply must not discharge from the site.
4. Concrete Waste from Concrete Ready-Mix Trucks – Discharge of excess or waste
concrete and/or wash water from concrete trucks will be allowed on the
construction site, but only in specifically designated diked areas that have been
prepared to prevent contact between the concrete and/or wash water and storm
water that will be discharged from the site. Waste concrete can be placed into
forms to make riprap or other useful concrete products. The cured residue from
the concrete washout diked areas shall be disposed in accordance with
applicable state and federal regulations. The jobsite superintendent is
responsible for assuring that these procedures are followed.
5. Fuel Tanks – Temporary on-site fuel tanks for construction vehicles shall meet all
state and federal regulations. Tanks shall have approved spill containment with
the capacity required by the applicable regulations. The tank shall be in sound
condition free of rust or other damage which might compromise containment.
Hoses, valves, fittings, caps, filler nozzles, and associated hardware shall be
maintained in proper working condition at all times.
Temporary on-site fuel tanks are not proposed for this project at this time.
6. Hazardous Waste Management and Spill Reporting Plan – Any hazardous or
potentially hazardous waste that is brought onto the construction site will be
handled properly in order to reduce the potential for storm water pollution. All
materials used on this construction site will be properly stored, handled and
dispensed following any applicable label directions. Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS) information will be kept on site for any and all applicable materials.
Should an accidental spill occur, immediate action will be undertaken by the
General Contractor to contain and remove the spilled material. All hazardous
materials will be disposed of by the Contractor in the manner specified by local,
state, and federal regulations and by the manufacturer of such products. As
soon as possible, the spill will be reported to the appropriate state and local
agencies. As required under the provisions of the Clean Water Act, any spill or
discharge entering the waters of the United States will be properly reported.
The General Contractor will prepare a written record of any such spill and will
provide notice to the Owner within 24-hours of the occurrence of the spill.
Any spills of petroleum products or hazardous materials in excess of Reportable
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 37
Quantities as defined by EPA or the state or local agency regulations, shall be
immediately reported to the EPA National Response Center (1-800-424-8802)
and the Washington State Department of Ecology at (360) 407-6300 or 1-800-
258-5990. The reportable quantity for petroleum products is per the State of
Washington is any amount that contacts public waterways or public storm
systems OR equal to or greater than 1 gallon on a commercial project that does
not contact public water systems such as creeks, rivers, lakes, or storm systems
and must be reported within 24 hours.
The EPA guidelines define spills within the public water systems as those that:
violate applicable water quality standards; cause a film or “sheen” upon, or
discoloration of the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines; or cause a
sludge or emulsion to be deposited beneath the surface of the water or upon
adjoining shorelines. The reportable quantity for hazardous materials is per the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
(CERCLA), and is any hazardous substance with reportable quantity that
appears in Table 302.4of 40 CFR parts 302, for other substance not found on
this list, the reportable quantity is one pound.
In order to minimize the potential for a spill of hazardous materials to come in
contact with stormwater, the following steps will be implemented:
a) All materials with hazardous properties (such as pesticides,
petroleum products, fertilizers, detergents, construction chemicals,
acids, paints, paint solvents, cleaning solvents, additives for soil
stabilization, concrete, curing compounds and additives, etc.) will be
stored in a secure location, under cover, when not in use.
b) The minimum practical quantity of all such materials will be kept on
the job site and scheduled for delivery as close to time of use as
practical.
c) A spill control and containment kit (containing for example,
absorbent such as kitty litter or sawdust, acid neutralizing agent,
brooms, dust pans, mops, rags, gloves, goggles, plastic and metal
trash containers, etc.) will be provided at the storage site.
d) All of the product in a container will be used before the container is
disposed of. All such containers will be triple rinsed, with water prior
to disposal. The rinse water used in these containers will be disposed
of in a manner in compliance with state and federal regulations and
will not be allowed to mix with storm water discharges.
e) All products will be stored in and used from the original container
with the original product label.
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 38
f) All products will be used in strict compliance with instructions on the
product label.
g) The disposal of excess or used products will be in strict compliance
with instructions on the product label.
7. Long-Term Pollutant Controls - Storm water pollutant control measures installed
during construction, that will also provide benefits after construction, will not be
applicable to this project since most of the pollution control measures are
already in place. Those sediment barriers that do not interfere with normal
operations and appear to provide long-term benefits can be left in place after
construction is completed.
8. Source Controls – Per Section 1.3.4 of the 2021 KCSWDM, structural source
control measures, such as car was pads or dumpster area roofing, shall be
applied to the entire site containing the proposed project, not just the project
site. Dumpster area roofing is proposed as a structural source control for this
project.
B. Construction Phase "Best Management Practices"
During the construction phase, the General Contractor shall implement the following
measures:
1. Materials resulting from the clearing and grubbing or excavation operations shall
be stockpiled up slope from adequate sedimentation controls. Materials
removed to an off-site location shall be protected with appropriate controls and
properly permitted.
2. The General Contractor shall designate areas on the TESC Plan for equipment
cleaning, maintenance, and repair. The General Contractor and subcontractors
shall utilize such designated areas. Cleaning, maintenance, and repair areas shall
be protected by a temporary perimeter berm, shall not occur within 150 feet
away of any waterway, and in areas located as far as practical from storm drains.
3. Use of detergents for large scale washing is prohibited (i.e., vehicles, buildings,
pavement surfaces, etc.)
4. Chemicals, paints, solvents, fertilizers, and other toxic materials must be stored in
weatherproof containers. Except during application, the contents must be kept in
trucks or within storage facilities. Runoff containing such material must be
collected, removed from the site, treated, and disposed at an approved solid waste
or chemical disposal facility.
C. Off-Site Facilities
Whenever dirt, rock, or other materials are imported to the construction site or
exported for placement in areas off of the primary construction site, the General
NAVIX Renton Park – Renton, WA 39
Contractor is responsible for determining that all stormwater permitting and pollution
control requirements are met for each and every site which receives such materials or
from which such materials are taken. Prior to the disturbance of any such site, the
General Contractor will furnish the Owner with a copy of the storm water permit issued
for each such site, as well as a copy of the off-site Owners certification statement
agreeing to implement necessary storm water pollution prevention measures. The
General Contractor will also furnish a copy of the SWPPP for each such site, including a
description of the erosion control measures, which will be applied.
At a minimum, each off-site area that provides or receives materials or is disturbed by
project activities must implement erosion control measures consisting of perimeter
controls on all down slope and side slope boundaries and must also provide for both
temporary stabilization measures and for permanent re-vegetation after all disturbance
is ended.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of GeoEngineers, Inc.’s (GeoEngineers) geotechnical engineering services
for the proposed development project located at Logan Avenue North and North 8th Street in Renton,
Washington. The site is shown relative to surrounding physical features on Figure 1, Vicinity Map and
Figure 2, Site Plan.
The purpose of this report is to provide geotechnical engineering conclusions and recommendations for the
design of the proposed development. GeoEngineers’ geotechnical engineering services have been
completed in general accordance with the scope of services outlined in our Agreement for Professional
Services dated March 22, 2018, Change Order No. 1 dated April 16, 2018, and Change Order No. 2 dated
July 16, 2019.
1.1. Project Understanding
GeoEngineers understands that the proposed development consists of a low-rise structure, an outfield area
consisting of turf or lawn and enclosed with nets supported by poles up to 170 feet in height, an
aboveground parking garage (up to two levels high) and surface parking. Our understanding of the project
and the required geotechnical scope of services is based on information provided by Eric Uebelhor with
Arco Murray Design Build.
2.0 FIELD EXPLORATIONS AND LABORATORY TESTING
2.1. Field Explorations
The subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by drilling 24 borings (B-1, B-2, PB-1, AB-1 through
AB-3, OB-1 through OB-7, GEI-1, GEI-2, B-1-19 through B-4-19, and GEI-1-19 through GEI-5-19) and
advancing six cone penetration tests (CPTs) (CPT-1 through CPT-6) to depths ranging from approximately
10 to 85 feet below existing site grades. CPTs were advanced to practical refusal. In addition, one
groundwater monitoring well (GEI-3-19a) was drilled and installed next to boring GEI-3-19. The approximate
locations of the explorations are shown in Figure 2. Descriptions of the field exploration program and the
boring and CPT logs are presented in Appendix A, Field Explorations.
2.2. Laboratory Testing
Soil samples were obtained during drilling and were taken to GeoEngineers’ laboratory for further
evaluation. Selected samples were tested for the determination of moisture content, fines content, grain-
size distribution, and plasticity indices (Atterberg limits). A description of the laboratory testing and the test
results are presented in Appendix B, Laboratory Testing.

3.0 SITE CONDITIONS
3.1. Surface Conditions
The site is bounded by office and parking structures to the south, Park Avenue North to the east,
North 8th Street to the north, and Logan Avenue North to the west. The site is relatively flat, with up to 3 feet
grade difference throughout.
The site is currently unoccupied, overall vegetated with grassy areas with some pavement associated with
previous site development. Based on our review of historical aerial photographs (available on Google Earth),
the site was previously occupied by warehouse structures that were demolished between 2005 and 2007.
Underground utilities running below and adjacent to the site consist of storm and sanitary sewer, water,
power and communications.
3.2. Subsurface Soil Conditions
GeoEngineers’ understanding of subsurface conditions is based on the results of our exploration program,
as described in the ‘Field Explorations’ section of this report. The approximate locations of the explorations
are presented in Figure 2.
The soils encountered at the site consist of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits, as shown in
Figures 3 through 6, Cross Sections A-A’ through D-D’, respectively, and the boring logs presented in
Appendix A.
Fill was encountered in each of the borings. Fill was observed below the pavement or topsoil, and generally
consisted of loose to dense sand with varying silt and gravel content. A thin layer of stiff sandy silt with
occasional gravel was encountered within the fill unit in boring B-1. The thickness of fill ranged from 4 feet
up to approximately 8 feet across the site.
Alluvium was observed below the fill. The alluvium typically consists of three units:
■ Upper loose/soft to medium dense/medium stiff alluvial sand to silty sand and silt with thin layers of
soft to medium stiff peat;
■ Lower medium dense to dense/stiff alluvial gravel, sand to silty sand and silt; and
■ Within the lower alluvial zone a loose/medium stiff sand and silt alluvium layer with thin layers of stiff
peat.
3.3. Groundwater Conditions
Based on conditions observed during drilling, the groundwater table at the site could range from depths of
approximately 4 to 13 feet below the existing ground surface (bgs), which corresponds to approximately
Elevations 17 to 25 feet (North American Vertical Datum of 1988 [NAVD 88]). A monitoring well was
installed next to boring GEI-3-19 to observe the depth of groundwater at the site. Measurements completed
approximately 3 weeks following the well installation indicate that the site groundwater level is about
8.2 feet below existing grades, which corresponds to approximately Elevation 21.8 feet (NAVD 88).

season, precipitation and other factors.
4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A summary of the geotechnical considerations is provided below. The summary is presented for introductory
purposes only and should be used in conjunction with the complete recommendations provided in
this report.
■ The site is designated as seismic Site Class F per the 2015 International Building Code (IBC) due to the
presence of potentially liquefiable soils below the building footprint. As a result, a site-specific seismic
response analysis has been completed and is included in Appendix C, Site Specific Seismic Response
Analysis. The building should be designed using the recommended risk-targeted maximum considered
earthquake (MCER) site-specific response spectrum presented in Table 1 and Figure 7, Recommended
Site-Specific MCER Response Spectrum.
■ The results of our liquefaction analyses indicate that fill and loose to medium dense alluvial soils, below
the groundwater table, are susceptible to liquefaction during the building code-prescribed
maximum-considered earthquake (MCE) event (i.e. earthquake event with 2,500-year return period).
We completed liquefaction-induced settlement analyses using the site-specific peak ground
acceleration (PGA) of 0.45g and mean earthquake magnitude of 7.2. Based on the results of our
liquefaction-induced settlement analysis, we estimate that free field ground surface settlement on the
order of 3 to 15 inches could occur during a MCE-level earthquake due to soil liquefaction.
■ Foundation support for the proposed building can be provided by augercast piles or by shallow
foundations bearing on improved ground. For shallow foundations bearing on improved ground, an
allowable static bearing pressure of 6,000 pounds per square foot (psf) can be used for ground
improvement consisting of rigid inclusions with an area replacement ratio of 10 to 12 percent. The
estimated post-construction static foundation settlement of new footings, prepared as described in this
report, is estimated to be less than 1 inch.
■ Design of the at-grade slabs should consider site settlements. In addition to being susceptible to
liquefaction, the upper alluvial soils are compressible and can be anticipated to settle under new loads.
Static settlements will depend on the thickness of new fill placed in the building footprint. If slab areas
are not supported on deep foundations or improved ground or treated with a preload program,
long-term static settlement is anticipated to be greater than 1 inch. The at-grade floor slab for the
October 29, 2019 | Page 4 File No. 23325-001-00
building should be underlain by at least 6 inches of clean crushed rock for uniform support and as a
capillary break.
■ Based on site grading plans, we understand that new site fills will range up to about 7 feet in thickness
in the outfield and 3 feet in thickness below the building footprint. Up to 5½ inches of long-term static
settlement are estimated for new site fill of up to 7 feet in thickness. Where long-term static settlement
is not desirable, they can be mitigated using deep foundations, ground improvement or a surcharge
and preload program.
■ The feasibility of infiltration was assessed at the site through review of near surface soil conditions and
groundwater levels. Due to relatively shallow groundwater (as shallow as 4 feet based on observations
during drilling) and the presence of low permeability silt soils near the ground surface, we conclude
that the use of large scale infiltration facilities is not feasible at this site.

4.1.1. Site-Specific Response Spectrum
A site-specific response analysis was completed in accordance with the procedure outlined in Chapter 21
of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) 7-10 code to develop the site-specific MCER response
spectrum. The methodology used and the details of the site-specific ground response analyses are
presented in Appendix C. The recommended MCER site-specific response spectrum is presented in Figure 7
and is defined in Table 1. The design spectrum is taken as two thirds of the MCER values presented in
Table 2 per ASCE 7-10 Section 21.3.

4.1.2. Seismic Hazards
4.1.2.1. Surface Fault Rupture
The site is located about 2.4 miles south of the Seattle Fault zone. Based on the distance from mapped
faults, it is our opinion there is a low risk of fault rupture at the site.
4.1.2.2. Liquefaction Potential
Liquefaction refers to a condition in which vibration or shaking of the ground, usually from earthquake
forces, results in development of high excess pore water pressures in saturated soils and subsequent loss
of stiffness and/or strength in the deposit of soil so affected. In general, soils that are susceptible to
liquefaction include loose to medium dense, clean to silty sands and low-plasticity silts that are below the
water table. Ground settlement, lateral spreading and/or sand boils may result from soil liquefaction.
Structures, such as buildings, supported on or within liquefied soils may experience foundation settlement
or lateral movement that can be damaging.
We evaluated the liquefaction potential of the site soils based on the information from the borings and
CPTs and using the Simplified Procedure (Youd and Idriss 2001 and Idriss and Boulanger 2008). The
Simplified Procedure is based on comparing the cyclic resistance ratio (CRR) of a soil layer (the cyclic shear
stress required to cause liquefaction) to the cyclic stress ratio (CSR) induced by an earthquake. The factor
of safety against liquefaction is determined by dividing the CRR by the CSR. Liquefaction hazards, including
settlement and related effects, were evaluated when the factor of safety against liquefaction was calculated
as less than 1.0.
Based on our analyses, the potential exists for liquefaction within the sandy and low-plasticity silt alluvial
deposits encountered in the explorations completed at the site. The cohesive soils (i.e. sandy silt
encountered within the alluvium soils) may also experience loss of shear strength during seismic loading.
We estimated the factor of safety to be less than 1.0 during a MCE event (i.e. earthquake event with
2,500-year return period), which has a rock outcrop peak ground acceleration (PGA) of 0.45g and mean
earthquake magnitude of 7.2 at the project site based on our site-specific response analysis.
4.1.2.3. Liquefaction-induced Settlement
Estimated ground settlement resulting from earthquake-induced liquefaction was analyzed using empirical
procedures based on correlations from the standard penetration test (SPT) results from the soil borings
(Tokimatsu and Seed 1987; Ishihara and Yoshimine 1992; Idriss and Boulanger 2008) and the tip
penetration resistance results from the CPTs. Liquefaction potential of the site soils was evaluated using
the PGA of 0.45g and mean earthquake magnitude of 7.2.
Liquefaction-induced ground settlement of the potentially liquefiable soils is estimated to be on the order
of 16 inches. Based on the research completed by Cetin et al. (2009), liquefaction at depths greater than
60 feet does not result in settlement that can be observed at the ground surface. In addition, the
liquefaction between depths of 40 to 60 feet results in settlement that is approximately one-third of
settlement estimated using empirical procedures. Therefore, we estimate the ground surface liquefaction-
induced settlement to be on the order of 3 to 15 inches, with the differential settlement between column
footings equal to the total estimated settlement.
4.1.2.4. Residual Strengths of Liquefiable Soils
The residual strength of liquefiable soils was estimated for use in our deep foundation capacity analysis.
The loose to medium dense sandy and low-plasticity silt alluvial deposits at depths shallower than 50 to
60 feet are susceptible to liquefaction and do not have strengths sufficient for deep foundation or ground
October 29, 2019 | Page 6 File No. 23325-001-00
improvement load bearing. However, the medium dense to dense alluvial deposits at depths greater than
50 to 60 feet, while including layers of soils that are potentially liquefiable under the design seismic event,
are estimated to have residual strength that will contribute to the capacity of deep foundations. The residual
strength of the medium dense to dense alluvial deposits was estimated using the method proposed by
Idriss and Boulanger (2008).
4.1.2.5. Lateral Spreading
Lateral spreading involves lateral displacements of large volumes of liquefied soil. Lateral spreading can
occur on near-level ground as blocks of surface soils are displaced relative to adjacent blocks. Lateral
spreading also occurs as blocks of surface soils are displaced toward a nearby slope or free-face such as
a nearby waterfront or stream bank by movement of the underlying liquefied soil. Due to the distance to a
nearby free-face and the relatively flat grade, it is our opinion the risk of lateral spreading is low.
4.2. Building Foundations
Based on the presence of the compressible peat and organic silt layers and the presence of the potentially
liquefiable soils, feasible foundation support for the proposed building can be provided by augercast piles
or by shallow foundations bearing on improved ground. Specific design and construction recommendations
for each of these options are presented in the following sections of this report.
4.2.1. Augercast Piles
Augercast piles are constructed using a continuous-flight, hollow-stem auger attached to a set of leads
supported by a crane or installed with a fixed-mast drill rig. The first step in the pile casting process consists
of drilling the auger into the ground to the specified tip elevation of the pile. Grout is then pumped through
the hollow-stem during steady withdrawal of the auger, replacing the soils on the flights of the auger.
The final step is to install a steel reinforcing cage and typically a center bar into the column of fresh grout.
One benefit of using augercast piles is that the auger provides support for the soils during the pile
installation process, thus eliminating the need for temporary casing or drilling fluid.
4.2.1.1. Construction Considerations
The augercast piles should be installed using a continuous-flight, hollow-stem auger. As is standard
practice, the pile grout must be pumped under pressure through the hollow stem as the auger is withdrawn.
Maintenance of adequate grout pressure at the auger tip is critical to reduce the potential for encroachment
of adjacent native soils into the grout column. The rate of withdrawal of the auger must remain constant
throughout the installation of the piles to reduce the potential for necking of the piles. Failure to maintain
a constant rate of withdrawal of the auger should result in immediate rejection of that pile. Reinforcing
steel for bending and uplift should be placed in the fresh grout column as soon as possible after withdrawal
of the auger. Centering devices should be used to provide concrete cover around the reinforcing steel.
The contractor should adhere to a waiting period of at least 12 hours between the installation of piles
spaced closer than 8 feet, center-to-center. This waiting period is necessary to avoid disturbing the curing
concrete in previously cast piles.
Grout pumps must be fitted with a volume-measuring device and pressure gauge so that the volume of
grout placed in each pile and the pressure head maintained during pumping can be observed. A minimum
grout line pressure of 100 pounds per square inch (psi) should be maintained. The rate of auger withdrawal
should be controlled during grouting such that the volume of grout pumped is equal to at least 115 percent
October 29, 2019 | Page 7 File No. 23325-001-00
of the theoretical pile volume. A minimum head of 10 feet of grout should be maintained above the auger
tip during withdrawal of the auger to maintain a full column of grout and to prevent hole collapse.
The geotechnical engineer of record should observe the drilling operations, monitor grout injection
procedures, record the volume of grout placed in each pile relative to the calculated volume of the hole and
evaluate the adequacy of individual pile installations.
4.2.1.2. Axial Capacity
Axial pile load capacity in compression is developed from end bearing and from side frictional resistance in
the lower medium dense to dense/stiff alluvial soils. Uplift pile capacity will also be developed from side
frictional resistance in these soils. Axial pile capacities are presented in Tables 3 and 4 below, for 18- and
24-inch-diameter augercast piles, respectively.

Allowable pile capacities were evaluated based on Allowable Stress Design (ASD) and are for combined
dead plus long-term live loads. The allowable capacities are based on the strength of the supporting soils
and include a factor of safety of 3 for end bearing, 2 for side friction and a factor of safety of 1.1 for seismic
conditions. The allowable seismic capacities include the effects of downdrag and the residual strength of
potentially liquefiable layers within the lower medium dense to dense alluvium. The capacities apply to
single piles. If piles are spaced at least three pile diameters on center, as recommended, no reduction of
axial capacity for group action is needed, in our opinion.
The structural characteristics of pile materials and structural connections may impose limitations on pile
capacities and should be evaluated by the structural engineer. For example, steel reinforcing will be needed
for augercast piles subjected to uplift or large bending moments.
October 29, 2019 | Page 8 File No. 23325-001-00
4.2.1.3. Lateral Capacity
Lateral loads can be resisted by passive soil pressure on the vertical piles and by the passive soil pressures
on the pile cap. Because of the potential separation between the pile-supported foundation components
and the underlying soil from settlement, base friction along the bottom of the pile cap should not be
included in calculations for lateral capacity.
Tables 5 and 6 summarize recommended design parameters for laterally loaded piles. We recommend that
these parameters be incorporated into the commercial software LPILE to evaluate response and capacity
of piles subject to laterally loading. For potentially liquefiable soils, a reduced p-multiplier should be applied
to the model P-Y curve of the relevant soil units for evaluating seismic conditions (Boulanger, et al. 2003).

Piles spaced closer than five pile diameters apart will experience group effects that will result in a lower
lateral resistance for trailing rows of piles with respect to leading rows of piles for an equivalent deflection.
We recommend that the lateral load capacity for piles in a pile group spaced less than five pile diameters
apart be reduced in accordance with the factors in Table 7 per American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications
Section 10.7.2.4.

Notes:
1 The P-multipliers presented are a function of the center-to-center spacing of piles in the group in the direction of loading expressed
in multiples of the pile diameter, D.
2 The values of Pm were developed for vertical piles only.
3 The P-multipliers are dependent on the pile spacing and the row number in the direction of the loading. To establish values of Pm
for other pile spacing values, interpolation between values should be conducted.
We recommend that the passive soil pressure acting on the pile cap be estimated using an equivalent fluid
density of 350 pounds per cubic foot (pcf) where the soil adjacent to the foundation consists of adequately
compacted structural fill. This passive resistance value includes a factor of safety of 1.5 and assumes a
minimum lateral deflection of 1 inch to fully develop the passive resistance. Deflections that are less than
1 inch will not fully mobilize the passive resistance in the soil.
4.2.1.4. Pile Settlement
We estimate that the post-construction settlement of pile foundations, designed and installed as
recommended, will be on the order of 1 inch or less. Maximum differential settlement should be less than
about one-half the post-construction settlement. Most of this settlement will occur rapidly as loads are
applied.
4.2.2. Shallow Foundations
4.2.2.1. Allowable Bearing Pressure
The building can be supported on shallow foundations provided the foundations bear on improved ground.
Rigid inclusion ground improvement was considered for this evaluation and is discussed in further detail in
the “Ground Improvement” section. For preliminary purposes, footings may be designed using a maximum
net allowable soil bearing value of 6,000 psf on properly-compacted structural fill consisting of at least a
2-foot-thick layer of crushed rock above ground improved with rigid inclusions with an area-replacement
ratio of about 10 to 12 percent. The net allowable soil bearing values apply to the total of dead and long-
term live loads and may be increased by up to one-third for wind or seismic loads.
4.2.2.2. Size and Embedment
The design frost depth for the Puget Sound area is 12 inches; therefore, we recommend that exterior
footings for the structures be founded at least 18 inches below lowest adjacent finished grade. Interior
footings should be founded at least 12 inches below bottom of slab or adjacent finished grade. For shallow
October 29, 2019 | Page 10 File No. 23325-001-00
foundation support, we recommend widths of at least 18 and 36 inches, respectively, for continuous wall
and isolated column footings supporting the proposed building.
4.2.2.3. Settlement
Provided all loose soil is removed and the subgrade is prepared as recommended under “Construction
Considerations” below, static settlement of shallow foundations bearing on improved ground is anticipated
to be less than 1 inch. The settlement will occur rapidly, essentially as loads are applied. Total settlement
(including liquefaction-induced settlement) of shallow foundations bearing on improved ground is
anticipated to be in the order of 2 to 4 inches. Differential settlements measured along 25 feet of wall
foundations or between similarly loaded column footings are expected to be less than 1 inch.
4.2.2.4. Lateral Resistance
Lateral foundation loads may be resisted by passive resistance on the sides of footings and by friction along
the base of the footings. For footings supported on structural fill placed and compacted in accordance with
our recommendations, the allowable frictional resistance may be computed using a coefficient of friction
of 0.35 applied to vertical dead-load forces.
The allowable passive resistance may be computed using an equivalent fluid density of 350 pcf (triangular
distribution). This value is appropriate for foundation elements that are surrounded by structural fill. The
structural fill should extend out from the face of the foundation element for a distance at least equal to
three times the height of the element and be compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum dry density
(MDD).
The above coefficient of friction and passive equivalent fluid density values incorporate a factor of safety
of about 1.5.
4.2.2.5. Footing Drains
We recommend that perimeter footing drains be installed around the building where the lowest finished
floor is lower than adjacent site grades. The perimeter drains should be installed at the base of the exterior
footings. The perimeter drains should be provided with cleanouts and should consist of at least
4-inch-diameter perforated pipe placed on a 3-inch bed of, and surrounded by, 6 inches of drainage
material enclosed in a non-woven geotextile fabric such as Mirafi 140N (or approved equivalent) to prevent
fine soil from migrating into the drain material. We recommend that the drainpipe consist of either
heavy-wall solid pipe (SDR-35 polyvinyl chloride [PVC], or equal) or rigid corrugated smooth interior
polyethylene pipe (ADS N-12, or equal). We recommend against using flexible tubing for footing drainpipes.
The drainage material should consist of Gravel Backfill for Drains conforming to Section 9-03.12(4) of the
2018 Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Standard Specifications. The perimeter
drains should be sloped to drain by gravity to a suitable discharge point, preferably a storm drain. We
recommend that the cleanouts be covered and be placed in flush mounted utility boxes. Water collected in
roof downspout lines must not be routed to the footing drain lines.
4.2.2.6. Construction Considerations
Immediately prior to placing concrete, all debris and soil slough that accumulated in the footings during
forming and steel placement must be removed. Debris or loose soils not removed from the footing
excavations will result in increased settlement. We recommend that the footing excavations be cut using a
smooth-edged bucket to reduce the amount of disturbed soil exposed at the subgrade.
October 29, 2019 | Page 11 File No. 23325-001-00
If wet weather construction is planned, we recommend that all footing subgrades be protected using a lean
concrete mud mat. The mud mat should be placed the same day that the footing subgrade is excavated
and approved for foundation support.
The condition of all footing excavations should be observed by the Geotechnical Engineer to evaluate if the
work is completed in accordance with our recommendations and that the subsurface conditions are as
anticipated.
4.2.3. Ground Improvement
Ground improvement is recommended to mitigate potentially liquefiable soils and to control foundation
settlement. Based on our experience, rigid inclusions are a feasible and economical ground improvement
option for this site. GeoEngineers can design the ground improvement system in collaboration with the
general contractor and structural engineer. General recommendations are provided below for ground
improvement using rigid inclusions. During the design phase of the project, foundation support options
should be reviewed with the project team to determine the preferred foundation support alternative.
The purpose of ground improvement is to mitigate potential static and/or seismic induced settlement
resulting from consolidation and seismic liquefaction of the alluvial deposits. The benefits of ground
improvement for this site include:
■ Ground improvement will allow for conventional shallow foundations and slabs on grade, both of which
are anticipated to result in more efficient and more cost-effective construction; and
■ Ground improvement will mitigate the potential settlement resulting from liquefaction of the native
alluvial soils during the design seismic event to tolerable magnitudes.
4.2.3.1. Rigid Inclusions
Rigid inclusions consist of unreinforced lean concrete columns installed below the building foundation
elements on a variable grid pattern. The purpose of the rigid inclusions placed in a grid pattern is to provide
a significantly higher strength material capable of dissipating building loads in a less concentrated manner
and to provide a ‘block’ of a composite soil and lean concrete material that will reduce the potential for
differential settlement.
Advantages with the use of rigid inclusions include the following:
■ They are more economical than augercast piles (shorter length, no reinforcement and allows for the
use of conventional spread footings/slabs on grade);
■ There is minimal disturbance of adjacent structures during installation; and
■ There is a lower level of construction noise (i.e. no pile driving), there will be lesser impacts to nearby
businesses/residences/buried utilities during construction.
Rigid inclusions for this site would be constructed using similar techniques for installing augercast piles.
Where augercast methods are used, the first step in the rigid inclusion casting process consists of drilling
the auger into the ground to the specified tip elevation of the column. Grout is then pumped into the hole
through the base of the auger.
October 29, 2019 | Page 12 File No. 23325-001-00
The layout/design of the rigid inclusions will be completed once the building design has been finalized.
For preliminary design and pricing purposes, rigid inclusions may consist of the following:
■ 18- to 24-inch-diameter rigid inclusions constructed using 1,000 to 2,000 psi concrete.
■ An area of replacement of about 10 to 12 percent. The appropriate area replacement ratio and the
need for the rigid inclusions to extend beyond the edges of the foundation footprint will be influenced
by seismic total and differential settlement tolerances.
■ Rigid inclusions should extend 60 to 70 feet deep beginning about 2 feet below the bottom of
foundations and floor slabs.
■ Rigid inclusions should be located under shallow foundations and should extend a distance equals to
at least one spacing beyond the foundation footprint.
■ At least 2 feet of clean crushed rock with negligible sand and fines should be placed over the top of the
rigid inclusions under the floor slab and foundations. A woven soil stabilization geotextile should be
placed within this layer. In addition, a non-woven geotextile filter fabric should be used between the top
of the rigid inclusions and this layer to minimize migration of soil from the subgrade to the crushed rock
layer. This layer of crushed rock will help transfer loads from the foundations and slab-on-grade to the
rigid inclusions and will help reduce differential settlement.
GeoEngineers can assist the project team with preparation of the ground improvement plan and
specifications once the foundation layout and building loads have been finalized.
4.3. Lowest-Level Building Slab
4.3.1. Subgrade Preparation
Floor slab support will be dependent of the type of foundation support selected for the building, the
potential for long-term static settlement due to the building pad fill, and the tolerance for
liquefaction-induced settlement. If mitigation of static and/or liquefaction-induced settlement is required,
the slab can be supported structurally (augercast piles) or constructed as a slab-on-grade with ground
improvement below the slab (rigid inclusions). If settlement mitigation is not required, the slab can be
constructed as a slab-on-grade without ground improvement.
4.3.2. Design Features
We recommend that the floor slabs be underlain by a capillary break gravel layer consisting of at least
6 inches of clean crushed gravel meeting the requirements of Mineral Aggregate Type 22 (¾-inch crushed
gravel), City of Seattle Standard Specification 9-03.16. The gravel layer should be placed directly over
compacted structural fill. If a 2-foot-thick layer of crushed rock is placed as part of ground improvement
plans, it will also suffice as a capillary break layer. For slabs designed as a beam on an elastic foundation,
a modulus of subgrade reaction of 85 pounds per cubic inch (pci) may be used for subgrade soils prepared
as recommended above.
If water vapor migration through the slabs is objectionable, the gravel should be covered with a heavy
plastic sheet, such as 10-mil plastic sheeting, to act as a vapor retarder. This will be necessary in occupied
spaces and where the slabs will be surfaced with tile or will be carpeted. It may also be prudent to apply a
sealer to the slab to further retard the migration of moisture through the floor. The contractor should be
made responsible for maintaining the integrity of the vapor retarder during construction.

4.4. Net Poles
4.4.1. General
Based on information provided by ARCO Murray, it is our understanding that typical net pole foundations
consist of 3-, 4- and 5-foot-diameter drilled concrete piles. The net pole foundations are to be designed by
others. The following sections present our design recommendations for each of the net pole foundation
sizes being considered for this project.
4.4.1.1. Axial Capacity
We understand that the net pole design is controlled by lateral capacity. Axial pile load capacity in
compression is developed from end bearing and from side frictional resistance in the underlying soils, and
uplift pile capacity will also be developed from side frictional resistance. Table 8 presents allowable axial
capacities for 3-, 4- and 5-foot-diameter drilled concrete piles embedded at least 15 feet into the lower
medium dense to dense/stiff alluvium. Allowable pile capacities were evaluated based on Allowable Stress
Design (ASD) and are for combined dead plus long-term live loads. The allowable capacities are based on
the strength of the supporting soils and include a factor of safety of 3 for end bearing, 2 for side friction
and a factor of safety of 1.1 for seismic conditions. The allowable seismic capacities include the effects of
downdrag and the residual strength of potentially liquefiable layers within the lower medium dense to
dense/stiff alluvium.
TABLE 8. ALLOWABLE STATIC AXIAL CAPACITY FOR NET POLE FOUNDATIONS

4-foot -42 350 160 250 300
5-foot -42 500 200 350 400
The capacities apply to single piles. If piles are spaced at least three pile diameters on center, as
recommended, no reduction of axial capacity for group action is needed, in our opinion.
4.4.1.2. Lateral Capacity
Lateral loads can be resisted by passive soil pressure on the vertical piles for the net pole foundations.
Table 9 summarizes recommended design parameters for laterally loaded net pole foundations. We
recommend that these parameters be incorporated into the commercial software LPILE to evaluate
response and capacity of shafts subject to laterally loading. For potentially liquefiable soils, a reduced
p-multiplier should be applied to the model P-Y curve of the relevant soil units for evaluating seismic
conditions (Boulanger, et al. 2003).

Piles spaced closer than five pile diameters apart will experience group effects that will result in a lower
lateral resistance for trailing rows of piles with respect to leading rows of piles for an equivalent deflection.
We recommend that the lateral load capacity for piles in a pile group spaced less than five pile diameters
apart be reduced in accordance with the factors in Table 6 per AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications
Section 10.7.2.4.
We recommend that the net pole foundations be designed using a static allowable lateral bearing pressure
of 1,000 psf where the soil adjacent to the foundation consists of undisturbed native soil. For seismic
design conditions, the lateral capacity should be evaluated using the parameters presented in Table 8
above, with the appropriate P-multiplier.
4.5. Outfield and Pavement Area Settlement Mitigation
The outfield and pavement areas are underlain by compressible alluvial soils that will experience long-term
static settlement if subjected to new loads from site fill. The site grading plan indicates that fill ranging up
to 7 feet in thickness (up to 9 feet in local isolated areas) are planned for portions of the outfield and (up
to 3 feet of net fill are planned) to level site grades within the main building footprint. Based on our analysis,
we estimate up to 5½ inches of long-term static settlement resulting from up to 7 feet of new site fill without
mitigation. We anticipate that settlement below the building slab will not be desirable and also understand
that the outfield target structures are settlement sensitive. Options for mitigation include the installation of
deep foundations or ground improvement below settlement sensitive structures. A surcharge and preload
program can also be incorporated into the construction schedule to mitigate static settlements due to new
loads where long term static settlement is not desirable. Our design recommendations for surcharge and
preload are presented below.
4.5.1. Surcharge and Preload Program
The purpose of the preload fill is to induce, prior to final site grading and project completion, a significant
portion of the settlement that will occur when new loads are applied. The program will significantly reduce
post-construction settlement and potential differential settlements due to variability in areal loading and
October 29, 2019 | Page 15 File No. 23325-001-00
thickness of compressible soils. We evaluated preload scenarios for planned fill thicknesses ranging from
3 to 7 feet for preload periods of 9 to 12 weeks. Table 10 summarizes the results of our evaluation.

Our estimates for the settlement of the preload fill were developed assuming that the preload fill has a total
moist density of at least 120 pcf. If the material used for the preload weighs less than 120 pcf, the height
of the preload fill mound should be adjusted.
Because the site soils have sandy interbeds, the long-term settlement is expected to occur relatively quickly.
Additional surcharge fill can be used to expedite the settlement if needed due to the construction schedule.
The following outlines a summary of our recommendations for grading and constructing the preload area:
■ The preload fill area should extend a distance beyond the extent of the area where settlement is being
mitigated equal to the height of the preload fill.
■ The preload fill toe should be sloped at a 1H:1V (horizontal to vertical) slope. The top of the mound
should be crowned and sloped for drainage.
■ The preload fill should be placed in lifts (not to exceed 12 inches in thickness) and compacted to
95 percent MDD to planned final grade elevation per the project civil engineer. A minimum compaction
level of 85 percent should be achieved for the surcharge fill (if any) above planned final grade elevation.
■ Settlement plates should be installed within the preload fill area. Settlement plate weekly survey
readings should be obtained during construction of preload fill. The first round of survey readings
should be obtained before the first lift of preload fill is placed. After the preload fill has been fully
constructed the settlement plates should also be surveyed on a weekly basis. The settlement
monitoring data will be used to confirm that the preload program is adequately completed.
4.6. Below-Grade Walls
Conventional cast-in-place walls may be necessary for small retaining structures (i.e. retaining or dock-high
walls) located on-site. The lateral soil pressures acting on conventional cast-in-place subsurface walls will
depend on the nature, density and configuration of the soil behind the wall and the amount of lateral wall
movement that can occur as backfill is placed.
For walls that are free to yield at the top at least 0.1 percent of the height of the wall, soil pressures will be
less than if movement is limited by such factors as wall stiffness or bracing. Assuming that the walls are
backfilled, and drainage is provided as outlined in the following paragraphs, we recommend that yielding
walls supporting horizontal backfill be designed using an equivalent fluid density of 35 pcf (triangular
October 29, 2019 | Page 16 File No. 23325-001-00
distribution), and that non-yielding walls supporting horizontal backfill be designed using an equivalent fluid
density of 55 pcf (triangular distribution). For seismic loading conditions, a rectangular earth pressure
equal to 8H psf, where H is the height of the wall, should be added to the active/at-rest pressures. For
lateral earth pressure due to surcharge loads, a rectangular earth pressure equals to 0.2q, where q is the
uniform surcharge pressure on top of wall, should be added to the active/at-rest pressures. Lateral
resistance for conventional cast-in-place walls can be provided by frictional resistance along the base of
the wall and passive resistance in front of the wall in accordance with the “Lateral Resistance” discussion
earlier in this report.
The above soil pressures assume that wall drains will be installed to prevent the buildup of hydrostatic
pressure behind the walls, as discussed in the paragraphs below.
If retaining walls, vaults, or recessed target structures are installed without drainage, hydrostatic pressure
behind the walls should be estimated by 62.4Hw psf (triangular distribution), where Hw is the height of the
lowest drainage outlet behind the wall.
4.6.1. Drainage
Positive drainage should be provided behind cast-in-place retaining walls by placing a minimum 2-foot-wide
zone of Gravel Backfill for Walls conforming to Section 9-03.12(2) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard
Specifications. A perforated or slotted drainpipe should be placed near the base of the retaining wall to
provide drainage. The drainpipe should be surrounded by a minimum of 6 inches Gravel Backfill for Drains
conforming to Section 9-03.12(4) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications. The Gravel Backfill for
Drains should be wrapped with a geotextile filter fabric meeting the requirements of construction geotextile
for underground drainage, WSDOT Standard Specification 9-33. The wall drainpipe should be connected to
a header pipe and routed to a sump or gravity drain. Appropriate cleanouts for drainpipe maintenance
should be installed. A larger-diameter pipe will allow for easier maintenance of drainage systems.
4.7. Earthwork
4.7.1. Clearing and Site Preparation
All areas to receive fill, structures or pavements should be cleared of vegetation and stripped of topsoil.
Clearing should consist of removal of all trees, brush and other vegetation within the designated clearing
limits. The topsoil materials could be separated and stockpiled for use in areas to be landscaped. Debris
associated with building and site work demolition should be removed from the site, but organic materials
could be chipped/composted and reused in landscape areas, if desired.
We anticipate that the depth of stripping to remove topsoil will generally be about 6 to 12 inches, where
present. Stripping depths may be greater in some areas, particularly where trees and large vegetation have
been removed. Actual stripping depths should be determined based on field observations at the time of
construction. The organic soils can be stockpiled and used later for landscaping purposes or may be spread
over disturbed areas following completion of grading. If spread out, the organic strippings should be in a
layer less than 1-foot-thick, should not be placed on slopes greater than 3H:1V and should be track-rolled
to a uniformly compacted condition. Materials that cannot be used for landscaping or protection of
disturbed areas should be removed from the project site.
October 29, 2019 | Page 17 File No. 23325-001-00
Care must be taken to minimize softening of the subgrade soils during stripping operations. Areas of the
exposed subgrade which become disturbed should be compacted to a firm, non-yielding condition, if
practical, prior to placing any structural fill necessary to achieve design grades. If this is not practical
because the material is too wet, the disturbed material must be aerated and recompacted or excavated
and replaced with structural fill.
4.7.2. Subgrade Preparation
Prior to placing new fills, pavement or hardscape base course materials, and gravel below on-grade floor
slabs, subgrade areas should be proof-rolled to locate soft or pumping soils. Prior to proof rolling, unsuitable
soils should be removed from below building and pavement/hardscape areas. Proof-rolling can be
completed using a piece of heavy tire-mounted equipment such as a loaded dump truck. During wet
weather, the exposed subgrade areas should be probed to determine the extent of soft soils. If soft or
pumping soils are observed, they should be removed and replaced with structural fill.
If deep pockets of soft or pumping soils are encountered outside the building footprint, it may be possible
to limit the depth of overexcavation by placing a woven geotextile fabric such as Mirafi 500X (or similar
material) on the overexcavated subgrade prior to placing structural fill. The geotextile will provide additional
support by bridging over the soft material and will help reduce fines contamination into the structural fill.
This may be performed under pavement areas depending on actual conditions observed during
construction, but it should not occur under the planned building.
After completing the proof-rolling, the subgrade areas should be recompacted to a firm and unyielding
condition, if possible. The achievable degree of compaction will depend on when construction is performed.
If the work is performed during dry weather conditions, we recommend that all subgrade areas be
recompacted to at least 95 percent of the MDD in accordance with the American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) D 1557 test procedure (modified Proctor). If the work is performed during wet weather
conditions, it may not be possible to recompact the subgrade to 95 percent of the MDD. In this case, we
recommend that the subgrade be compacted to the extent possible without causing undue heaving or
pumping of the subgrade soils.
Subgrade disturbance or deterioration could occur if the subgrade is wet and cannot be dried. If the
subgrade deteriorates during proof rolling or compaction, it may become necessary to modify the proof
rolling or compaction criteria or methods.
4.7.3. Subgrade Protection
Site soils may contain significant fines content (silt/clay) and will be highly sensitive and susceptible to
moisture and equipment loads. The contractor should take necessary measures to prevent site subgrade
soils from becoming disturbed or unstable. Construction traffic during the wet season should be restricted
to specific areas of the site, preferably areas that are surfaced with crushed rock materials not susceptible
to wet weather disturbance.
4.7.4. Structural Fill
All fill, whether on-site soils or imported fill for support of foundations, floor slab areas, pavement areas
and as backfill for retaining walls or in utility trenches should meet the criteria for structural fill presented
below. Structural fill soils should be free of organic matter, debris, man-made contaminants and other
October 29, 2019 | Page 18 File No. 23325-001-00
deleterious materials, with no individual particles larger than 4 inches in greatest dimension. The suitability
of soil for use as structural fill depends on its gradation and moisture content.
4.7.4.1. Fill Criteria
Recommended structural fill material quality varies depending upon its use as described below:
■ Structural fill to construct pavement areas, to place below foundations and slabs, to construct
embankments, to backfill retaining walls and utility trenches, and to place against foundations
should consist of gravel borrow as described in Section 9-03.14(1) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard
Specifications, with the additional restriction that the fines content be limited to no more than
5 percent, especially if the work occurs in wet weather or during the wet season (October through May).
However, if earthwork occurs during the normally dry months (June through September) on-site sandy
soils that are properly moisture conditioned, that are free of concrete rubble and other debris, and that
can be properly compacted may be used as structural fill in these areas. It may be possible to use
on-site sandy soils during wet weather for areas requiring only 90 percent compaction provided the
earthwork contractor implements good wet weather techniques and drier soils are used; however, we
recommend gravel borrow be specified for planning/bidding purposes.
■ Structural fill placed in the minimum 2-foot-wide drainage zone behind retaining walls consist of Gravel
Backfill for Walls conforming to Section 9-03.12(2) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications.
■ Structural fill placed around wall and footing drains should consist of Gravel Backfill for Drains
conforming to Section 9-03.12(4) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications.
■ Structural fill placed as capillary break material below slab-on-grade floors should consist of clean
crushed rock and meet the gradation requirements of Mineral Aggregate Type 22 (¾-inch crushed
gravel), City of Seattle Standard Specification 9-03.16. The capillary break may be eliminated if ground
improvement methods are used to support the buildings and a 2-foot thick crushed rock layer is placed
below the slabs.
■ Structural fill placed as crushed surfacing base course below pavements should conform to
Section 9-03.9(3) of the 2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications.
We recommend that the suitability of structural fill soil from proposed borrow sources be evaluated by a
representative of our firm before the earthwork contractor begins transporting the soil to the site.
4.7.4.2. Reuse of On-site Soils
On-site silty soils located within the upper few feet across the site will be difficult to reuse in the wet season
or wet weather conditions. The silty soils should not be reused under the planned structures. The on-site
sandy soils located above the water table may be used as structural fill in all areas during dry weather
conditions (typically June through September), provided the material is properly moisture conditioned.
Imported Gravel Borrow may be required for use as structural fill during wet weather conditions and during
the wet season (typically October through May) if the on-site sandy soils cannot be properly moisture
conditioned and compacted. The existing sandy soils are expected to be suitable for structural fill in areas
requiring compaction to at least 95 percent of MDD (per ASTM D 1557), provided the work is accomplished
during the normally dry season (June through September) and that the soil can be properly moisture
conditioned to within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content. Concrete rubble and other debris must
be removed from the existing fill soils before they can be reused as structural fill. Imported structural fill
consisting of sand and gravel (WSDOT Gravel Borrow) should be planned under all building floor slabs and
October 29, 2019 | Page 19 File No. 23325-001-00
foundation elements and as wall backfill, especially if construction occurs during wet weather or the wet
season (typically October through May).
The contractor should plan to cover and maintain all stockpiles of on-site soil with plastic sheeting if it will
be used as structural fill. The reuse of on-site soils is highly dependent on the skill of the contractor and
the weather conditions, and we will work with the design team and contractor to maximize the reuse of
on-site soils during the wet and dry seasons; however, imported gravel borrow should be planned for and
specified for wet weather construction.
4.7.4.3. Fill Placement and Compaction Criteria
Structural fill should be mechanically compacted to a firm, non-yielding condition. Structural fill should be
placed in loose lifts not exceeding 12 inches in thickness if using heavy compactors and 6 inches if using
hand operated compaction equipment. The actual lift thickness will be dependent on the structural fill
material used and the type and size of compaction equipment. Each lift should be moisture conditioned to
within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content and compacted to the specified density before placing
subsequent lifts. Structural fill should be compacted to the following criteria:
■ All fill placed under the proposed structures should be placed as structural fill compacted to at least
95 percent of the MDD estimated using the ASTM D 1557 test method.
■ Structural fill placed against foundations should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the MDD.
■ Structural fill placed behind below-grade walls should be compacted to between 90 to 92 percent of
the MDD estimated using ASTM D 1557. Care should be taken when compacting fill near the face of
below-grade walls to avoid over-compaction and hence overstressing the walls. Hand operated
compactors should be used within 5 feet behind the wall. The upper 2 feet of fill below floor slab
subgrade level should also be compacted to at least 95 percent of the MDD. The contractor should
keep all heavy construction equipment away from the top of retaining walls a horizontal distance equal
to half the height of the wall, or at least 5 feet, whichever is greater.
■ Structural fill in new pavement and hardscape areas, including utility trench backfill, should be
compacted to at least 90 percent of the MDD, except that the upper 2 feet of fill below final subgrade
level should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the MDD.
■ Structural fill placed as crushed surfacing base course below pavements should be compacted to
95 percent of the MDD.
■ Non-structural fill, such as fill placed in landscape areas, should be compacted to at least 90 percent
of the MDD.
An adequate number of in-place moisture and density tests should be performed during the placement and
compaction of structural fill to evaluate whether the specified degree of compaction is being achieved.
4.7.4.4. Weather Considerations
Disturbance of near surface soils should be expected, especially if earthwork is completed during periods
of wet weather. During dry weather, the soils will: (1) be less susceptible to disturbance; (2) provide better
support for construction equipment; and (3) be more likely to meet the required compaction criteria.
October 29, 2019 | Page 20 File No. 23325-001-00
The wet weather season generally begins in October and continues through May in western Washington;
however, periods of wet weather may occur during any month of the year. For earthwork activities during
wet weather, we recommend the following steps be taken:
■ The ground surface in and around the work area should be sloped so that surface water is directed
away from the work area. The ground surface should be graded so that areas of ponded water do not
develop. Measures should be taken by the contractor to prevent surface water from collecting in
excavations and trenches. Measures should be implemented to remove surface water from the
work area.
■ Surface water must not be directed toward slopes and we recommend that storm water drainage
ditches be constructed where needed along the crest of slopes to prevent uncontrolled surface water
runoff.
■ Earthwork activities should not take place during periods of moderate to heavy precipitation.
■ Slopes with exposed soils should be covered with plastic sheeting.
■ The contractor should take necessary measures to prevent on-site soils and soils to be used as fill from
becoming wet or unstable. These measures may include the use of plastic sheeting, sumps with pumps,
and grading. The site soils should not be left uncompacted and exposed to moisture. Sealing the
surficial soils by rolling with a smooth-drum roller prior to periods of precipitation will help reduce the
extent that these soils become wet or unstable.
■ The contractor should cover all soil stockpiles that will be used as structural fill with plastic sheeting.
■ Construction traffic should be restricted to specific areas of the site, preferably areas that are surfaced
with the existing asphalt or working pad materials not susceptible to wet weather disturbance.
■ Construction activities should be scheduled so that the length of time that soils are left exposed to
moisture is reduced to the extent practical.
Routing of equipment on the existing fill and native silty soils during the wet weather months will be difficult
and the subgrade will likely become highly disturbed and rutted. In addition, a significant amount of mud
can be produced by routing equipment directly on these soils in wet weather. Therefore, to protect the
subgrade soils and to provide an adequate wet weather working surface for the contractor’s equipment
and labor, we recommend that the contractor protect exposed subgrade soils with crushed rock or
asphalt-treated base (ATB), as necessary.
4.7.5. Temporary Cut Slopes
For planning purposes, temporary unsupported cut slopes more than 4 feet high may be inclined at 1½H:1V
in the fill and native soils. These inclinations may need to be flattened by the contractor if significant
caving/sloughing or groundwater seepage occurs. For open cuts at the site, we recommend that:
■ No traffic, construction equipment, stockpiles, or building supplies be allowed at the top of cut slopes
within a distance of at least 5 feet from the top of the cut;
■ The excavation not encroach on a 1H:1V influence line projected down from the edges of nearby or
planned foundation elements;
October 29, 2019 | Page 21 File No. 23325-001-00
■ Exposed soil along the slope be protected from surface erosion using waterproof tarps or plastic
sheeting or flash coating with shotcrete;
■ Construction activities be scheduled so that the length of time the temporary cut is left open is reduced
to the extent practicable;
■ Erosion control measures be implemented as appropriate such that runoff from the site is reduced to
the extent practicable;
■ Surface water be diverted away from the excavation; and
■ The general condition of the slopes be observed periodically by GeoEngineers to confirm adequate
stability.
Because the contractor has control of the construction operations, the contractor should be made
responsible for the stability of cut slopes, as well as the safety of the excavations. Shoring and temporary
slopes must conform to applicable local, state and federal safety regulations.
4.7.6. Permanent Cut and Fill Slopes
We recommend that permanent cut or fill slopes be constructed at inclinations of 2H:1V or flatter and be
blended into existing slopes with smooth transitions. To achieve uniform compaction, we recommend that
fill slopes be overbuilt slightly and subsequently cut back to expose well compacted fill.
To reduce erosion, newly constructed slopes and disturbed existing slopes should be planted or
hydroseeded shortly after completion of grading. Until the vegetation is established, some sloughing and
raveling of the slopes should be expected. This may necessitate localized repairs and reseeding. Temporary
covering, such as clear heavy plastic sheeting, or erosion control blankets (such as American Excelsior
Curlex 1 or North American Green SC150BN) could be used to protect the slopes during periods of rainfall.
4.7.7. Erosion and Sediment Control
In our opinion, the erosion potential of the on-site soils is low to moderate. Construction activities including
stripping and grading will expose soils to the erosional effects of wind and water. The amount and potential
impacts of erosion are partly related to the time of year that construction occurs. Wet weather construction
will increase the amount and extent of erosion and potential sedimentation.
Erosion and sedimentation control measures may be implemented by using a combination of interceptor
swales, straw bale barriers, silt fences and straw mulch for temporary erosion protection of exposed soils.
All disturbed areas should be finish graded and seeded as soon as practicable to reduce the risk of erosion.
4.7.8. Utility Trenches
Trench excavation, pipe bedding and trench backfilling should be completed using the general procedures
described in the 2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications, or City of Renton requirements, or as specified by
the project civil engineer.
Utility trench backfill should consist of structural fill and should be placed in lifts of 12 inches or less (loose
thickness) when using heavy compaction equipment, and 6 inches or less when using hand compaction
equipment, such that adequate compaction can be achieved throughout the lift. Each lift must be
compacted prior to placing the subsequent lift. Prior to compaction, the backfill should be moisture
October 29, 2019 | Page 22 File No. 23325-001-00
conditioned to within 2 percent of the optimum moisture content. The backfill should be compacted in
accordance with the criteria discussed above.
4.8. Pavement Recommendations
4.8.1. Subgrade Preparation
We recommend the subgrade soils in new pavement areas be prepared and evaluated as described in the
“Earthwork” section of this report. Where existing fill is present, we recommend placing a 6-inch-thick
imported granular subbase layer meeting the requirements of Gravel Borrow (Section 9-03.14(1) of the
2018 WSDOT Standard Specifications) below the pavement sections described below. If the subgrade soils
are excessively loose or soft, it may be necessary to excavate localized areas and replace them with
additional gravel borrow or gravel base material. Pavement subgrade conditions should be observed and
proof-rolled during construction and prior to placing the subbase materials to evaluate the presence of
unsuitable subgrade soils and the need for over-excavation and placement of a geotextile separator.
The following pavement recommendations are for standard hot-mix asphalt (HMA) pavement designs. We
understand that permeable pavement may be considered at the site. We can provide permeable pavement
recommendations upon request.
4.8.2. New Hot-Mix Asphalt Pavement
In light-duty pavement areas (e.g., pedestrian access or passenger car parking), we recommend a
pavement section consisting of at least a 3-inch thickness of ½-inch HMA (PG 58-22) per WSDOT
Sections 5-04 and 9-03, over a 4-inch thickness of densely compacted crushed surfacing base course
(CSBC) per WSDOT Section 9-03.9(3).
In medium-duty pavement areas (e.g., drive aisles), we recommend a pavement section consisting of at
least a 4-inch thickness of ½-inch HMA (PG 58-22) over a 6-inch thickness of densely compacted CSBC per
WSDOT Section 9-03.9(3).
The crushed surfacing base course in both light-duty and medium-duty areas should be compacted to at
least 95 percent of the MDD (ASTM D 1557). We recommend that a proof-roll of the compacted base
course be observed by a representative from our firm prior to paving. Soft or yielding areas observed during
proof-rolling may require over-excavation and replacement with compacted structural fill.
The pavement sections recommended above are based on our experience and typical traffic data provided
by ARCO Murray. Thicker asphalt sections may be needed based on the actual projected traffic data, bus
or truck loads, and intended use.
4.8.3. Portland Cement Concrete Pavement
Portland cement concrete (PCC) sections may be considered for loading dock aprons, trash dumpster areas
and where other concentrated heavy loads may occur. For heavy-duty (e.g., service trucks, fire trucks, etc.)
concrete paving, we recommend 8 inches of PCC overlying 6 inches of CSBC per WSDOT Section 9-03.9(3).
The concrete thickness should be increased by the thickness of the reinforcing steel, if steel reinforcement
is used.
October 29, 2019 | Page 23 File No. 23325-001-00
The crushed surface base course in both light duty and heavy-duty areas should be compacted to at least
95 percent of the MDD (ASTM D 1557). We recommend that a proof-roll of the compacted base course be
observed by a representative from our firm prior to paving. Soft or yielding areas observed during
proof-rolling may require over-excavation and replacement with compacted structural fill.
We recommend PCC pavements incorporate construction joints and/or crack control joints spaced
maximum distances of 12 feet apart, center-to-center, in both the longitudinal and transverse directions.
Crack control joints may be created by placing an insert or groove into the fresh concrete surface during
finishing, or by sawcutting the concrete after it has initially set-up. We recommend the depth of the crack
control joints be approximately one-fourth the thickness of the concrete. We also recommend that the
project team consider sealing crack control joints with an appropriate sealant to help restrict water
infiltration into the joints.
4.9. Construction Dewatering
Static groundwater was observed in the borings at the time of exploration, as described in the “Groundwater
Conditions” section of this report. Therefore, shallow excavations for utility trenches, underground vaults
and elevator shafts may encounter groundwater.
Dewatering during construction of these areas and other excavations on site may be required. Based on
the soil conditions and our experience in the area, we expect that groundwater in excavations less than
about 5 feet below existing grades can be controlled by open pumping using sump pumps. For excavations
extending deeper and below the static ground water table dewatering using well points or deep wells will
be necessary. We recommend that the contractor be required to submit a proposed dewatering system
design and plan layout to the project team for review and comment prior to beginning construction.
The level of effort required for dewatering will depend on the time of year during which construction is
accomplished. Less seepage into the work areas and a lower water table should be expected if construction
is accomplished in the late summer or early fall months, and correspondingly, more seepage and a higher
water table should be expected during the wetter periods of the year and into the spring months. We
recommend that earthwork activities be completed in the late summer or early fall months when
precipitation is typically at its lowest.
4.10. Infiltration Considerations
The feasibility of infiltration was assessed at the site through review of near surface soil conditions and
groundwater levels. Due to a relatively shallow groundwater table (as shallow as 4 feet based on
observations during drilling) and the presence of low permeability silt soils near the ground surface, we
conclude that the use of large scale infiltration facilities is not feasible at this site. GeoEngineers can
provide design infiltration rates for on-site best management practices (BMPs) such as permeable
pavement or rain gardens, if required.
4.11. Recommended Additional Geotechnical Services
Throughout this report, recommendations are provided where we consider additional geotechnical services
to be appropriate. These additional services are summarized below:
■ GeoEngineers can prepare construction drawings and specifications for ground improvement (such as
stone columns or rigid inclusions) for the project, if requested.
October 29, 2019 | Page 24 File No. 23325-001-00
■ GeoEngineers should be retained to review the project plans and specifications when complete to
confirm that our design recommendations have been implemented as intended.
■ During construction, GeoEngineers should observe stripping and grading; observe and evaluate
installation of ground improvement elements or deep foundations; observe and evaluate the suitability
of foundation, wall and floor slab subgrades; observe removal of unsuitable fill and debris/rubble from
below the building and parking garage footprints and hardscape areas; observe and test structural fill
including wall and utility trench backfill; observe installation of subsurface drainage measures and
infiltration facilities; evaluate the suitability of pavement subgrades and other appurtenant structures,
and provide a summary letter of our construction observation services. The purposes of GeoEngineers’
construction phase services are to confirm that the subsurface conditions are consistent with those
observed in the explorations, to provide recommendations for design changes should the conditions
revealed during the work differ from those anticipated, to evaluate whether or not earthwork and
foundation installation activities are completed in accordance with our recommendations, and other
reasons described in Appendix D, Report Limitations and Guidelines for Use.

APPENDICES
APPENDIX A Field Explorations

APPENDIX A
FIELD EXPLORATIONS
Subsurface conditions at the site were evaluated by drilling 24 borings (B-1, B-2, PB-1, AB-1 through AB-3,
OB-1 through OB-7, GEI-1, GEI-2, B-1-19 through B-4-19, and GEI-1-19 through GEI-5-19) and advancing
six cone penetration tests (CPTs) (CPT-1 through CPT-6) to depths ranging from approximately 10 to 85 feet
below existing site grades. CPTs were advanced to practical refusal. The borings were completed by
Advanced Drill Technologies, Inc. from April 3 to April 4, 2018, from July 29 to August 1 and August 23,
2019. The CPTs were completed by In Situ Engineering on April 3, 2018.
The locations of the explorations were estimated by taping/pacing from existing site features as well as
surveyed. The approximate exploration locations are shown on the Figure 2, Site Plan.
Borings
The borings were completed using a D-50 track mounted drill rig with continuous-flight, hollow-stem auger
drilling equipment. The borings were continuously monitored by a technician from our firm who examined
and classified the soils encountered, obtained representative soil samples, observed groundwater
conditions and prepared a detailed log of each exploration.
The soils encountered in the borings were generally sampled at 2½- and 5-foot vertical intervals with a
2-inch, outside-diameter split-barrel standard penetration test (SPT) sampler. The disturbed samples were
obtained by driving the sampler 18 inches into the soil with a 140-pound automatic hammer. The number
of blows required for each 6 inches of penetration was recorded. The blow count ("N-value") of the soil was
calculated as the number of blows required for the final 12 inches of penetration. This resistance, or
N-value, provides a measure of the relative density of granular soils and the relative consistency of cohesive
soils. Where very dense soil conditions precluded driving the full 18 inches, the penetration resistance for
the partial penetration was entered on the logs. The blow counts are shown on the boring logs at the
respective sample depths.
Soils encountered in the borings were visually classified in general accordance with the classification
system described in Figure A-1, Key to Exploration Logs. A key to the boring log symbols is also presented
in Figure A-1. The logs of the borings are presented in Figures A-2 through A-26. The boring logs are based
on our interpretation of the field and laboratory data and indicate the various types of soils and groundwater
conditions encountered. The logs also indicate the depths at which these soils or their characteristics
change, although the change may actually be gradual. If the change occurred between samples, it was
interpreted. The densities noted on the boring logs are based on the blow count data obtained in the borings
and judgment based on the conditions encountered.
Observations of groundwater conditions were made during drilling. The groundwater conditions
encountered during drilling are presented on the boring logs. Groundwater conditions observed during
drilling represent a short-term condition and may or may not be representative of the long-term groundwater
conditions at the site. Groundwater conditions observed during drilling should be considered approximate.
October 29, 2019 | Page A-2 File No. 23325-001-00
Monitoring Wells
A groundwater monitoring wells was installed next to boring GEI-3-19. The monitoring well was constructed
using 2-inch-diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) casing. The depth to which the casing was installed was
selected based on our understanding of subsurface soil and groundwater conditions encountered during
drilling. The lower portion of the casing was slotted to allow entry of water into the casing. Medium sand
was placed in the borehole annulus surrounding the slotted portion of the casing. A bentonite seal was
placed above the slotted portion of the casing. The monitoring well was protected by installing flush-mount
steel monuments set in concrete. Completion details for the monitoring well is shown on Figure A-24.
Groundwater levels in the monitoring wells were measured on August 8, 12 and 23, 2019, as summarized
in the main body of the report.
The groundwater monitoring wells should be abandoned during construction in accordance with the
procedures of the Washington State Department of Ecology.
Cone Penetration Tests
The CPT is a subsurface exploration technique in which a small-diameter steel tip with adjacent sleeve is
continuously advanced with hydraulically operated equipment. Measurements of tip and sleeve resistance
allow interpretation of the soil profile and the consistency of the strata penetrated. The tip resistance,
friction ratio and pore water pressure are recorded on the CPT logs. The logs of the CPT probes are
presented at the end of this appendix as Figures A-27 through A-34. The CPT soundings were backfilled in
general accordance with procedures outlined by the Washington State Department of Ecology.

APPENDIX B
LABORATORY TESTING
Soil samples obtained from the explorations were transported to GeoEngineers’ laboratory and evaluated
to confirm or modify field classifications, as well as to evaluate engineering properties of the soil samples.
Representative samples were selected for laboratory testing to determine percent fines (material passing
the U.S. No. 200 sieve) and gradation test (sieve analysis). The tests were performed in general accordance
with test methods of ASTM International (ASTM) or other applicable procedures.
Moisture Content
Moisture content tests were completed in general accordance with ASTM D 2216 for representative
samples obtained from the explorations. The results of these tests are presented on the exploration logs in
Appendix A at the depths at which the samples were obtained.
Percent Passing U.S. No. 200 Sieve (%F)
Selected samples were “washed” through the U.S. No. 200 mesh sieve to estimate the relative percentages
of coarse- and fine-grained particles in the soil. The percent passing value represents the percentage by
weight of the sample finer than the U.S. No. 200 sieve. These tests were conducted to verify field
descriptions and to estimate the fines content for analysis purposes. The tests were conducted in general
accordance with ASTM D 1140, and the results are shown on the exploration logs in Appendix A at the
respective sample depths.
Sieve Analyses
Sieve analyses were performed on selected samples in general accordance with ASTM D 422. The wet
sieve analysis method was used to determine the percentage of soil greater than the U.S. No. 200 mesh
sieve. The results of the sieve analyses were plotted, were classified in general accordance with the
Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) and are presented in Figures B-1 through B-5, Sieve Analysis
Results.
Atterberg Limits
We completed Atterberg limits tests on selected fine-grained soil samples. We used the test results to
classify the soil as well as to evaluate index properties and consolidation characteristics. Liquid limits,
plastic limits and plasticity index were obtained in general accordance with ASTM Test Method D 4318.
Results of the Atterberg limits tests are summarized in Figures B-6 through B-10.

APPENDIX C Site-Specific Seismic Response Analysis
October 29, 2019 | Page C-1 File No. 23325-001-00
APPENDIX C
SITE-SPECIFIC SEISMIC RESPONSE ANALYSIS
Nonlinear site response analyses were completed using the computer software FLAC (Fast Lagrangian
Analysis of Continua) developed by Itasca of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The purpose of the nonlinear site
response analyses is to evaluate site-specific soil amplification factors (AFs) and develop site-specific risk-
targeted maximum-considered earthquake (MCER) response spectra based on ASCE 7-10 (2010) using the
following approach:
1. Complete a site-specific probabilistic seismic hazard analyses (PSHA) to compute rock outcrop uniform
hazard spectra (UHS) for the maximum-considered earthquake (MCE) (2 percent probability of
exceedance in 50 years, 2,475-year return period). Rock outcrop conditions are defined as the Site
Class B/C boundary or Vs30=760 meters per second (m/sec).
2. Complete seismic hazard deaggregation for the 2,475-year event at the periods of interest and select
a suite of seven acceleration time histories that represent the contributing seismic sources to the total
hazard at the site.
3. Modify the frequency content of the time histories via spectral matching to match the input time history
response spectra to the target rock outcrop response spectra.
4. Develop shear wave velocity profiles and one-dimensional (1D) soil models based on the shear wave
velocity measurements obtained at the site and its vicinity and using subsurface information collected
from the geotechnical explorations completed at the site.
5. Complete nonlinear site response analyses to compute the soil response spectra at ground surface
and calculate site-specific soil AFs.
6. Evaluate maximum component adjustment (MCA) factors and risk coefficients per ASCE 7-10
Section 21.2.1.2.
7. Develop probabilistic MCER ground motions by multiplying the probabilistic MCE ground motions from
(1) by the site-specific soil AFs, MCA factors, and risk coefficients.
8. Develop deterministic MCER ground motions per ASCE 7-10 by evaluating the 84th percentile maximum
direction deterministic response spectrum including the MCA factors.
9. Develop the recommended site-specific MCER response spectrum by taking the lesser of the
probabilistic and deterministic MCER response spectra and comparing it to 80 percent of the ASCE 7-10
code-based response spectrum.
Rock Outcrop Uniform Hazard Spectrum
A site-specific PSHA was completed using the computer code Haz45.2 to develop the rock outcrop uniform
hazard spectrum. Relevant seismic sources based on the 2014 United States Geological Survey (USGS)
seismic source characterization (SSC) model were considered for the project. The 2014 USGS SSC model
contains seismic source characteristics and recurrence models developed by USGS for the 2014 update of
the National Seismic Hazard Maps (Petersen et al. 2014). The UHS for the 2,475-year event was computed
for rock outcrop conditions (i.e. Site Class B/C boundary, Vs30=760 m/sec). The suite of ground motion
models (GMMs) and corresponding weights that were used to complete the PSHA are presented in
Table C-1 below. Table C-2 presents the 2,475-year rock outcrop UHS.

Selection of Input Acceleration Time Histories
The seismic hazard deaggregation was performed at a spectral period (T) of 1.0 and 2.0 seconds to
evaluate the percent contribution of the various source-types to the uniform hazard associated with the
2,475-year earthquake event. The deaggregation results are presented in Table C-3. Based on the results,
four crustal events, one subduction-intraslab event, and two subduction-interface events were selected to
represent the 2,475-year event. Table C-4 summarizes the 2,475-year record suite used.

Ground Motion Modification
The suites of input acceleration time histories were modified via spectral matching to match the target rock
outcrop 2,475-year response spectra from T=0.01 to 5.0 seconds. Spectral matching was completed
using RSPMatch09 (Fouad et al. 2012) based on the improved spectral matching approach proposed by
Al Atik, et al. (2010). The ground motions were processed with a Butterworth low pass filter to filter out
frequencies greater than 25 Hertz. The as-recorded and spectrally matched response spectra are
presented in Figures C-1 and C-2.
One-Dimensional Soil Models
Shear wave velocity (Vs) profiles were developed using measurements collected the site, and shear wave
velocity data for alluvium soils to account for the variability and uncertainty in the dynamic properties of the
soil. In-situ measurements were collected at two CPT locations (CPT-1 and CPT-2). Additionally, shear wave
velocity measurements for Alluvium soils were collected as part of the nearby Project Impact (Wong et
al. 2003).
We developed shear wave velocity profiles based on the in-situ measurements from CPTs, correlations with
SPT measurements from the borings completed at the site, and shear wave velocity data for alluvium soils
from a nearby study. Uncertainty in the shear wave velocity profile was incorporated into the analysis by
considering the difference between the CPT in-situ measurements and the shear wave velocity
measurements within alluvium soils, completed nearby. Two shear wave velocity profiles, lower bound (LB),
and upper bound (UB), were developed to capture the range of the measured shear wave velocity of the
soils to account for the uncertainty in the shear wave velocity of the subsurface soils encountered at the
October 29, 2019 | Page C-4 File No. 23325-001-00
site. The two profiles developed are presented in Figures C-3 and C-4, for depths extending to 100 feet
(shallow) and 400 feet (deep), respectively.
Table C-5 summarizes the soil type, layer depth, soil unit weight, plasticity index (PI), and shear modulus
reduction (G/Gmax) and damping curves used in the representative FLAC 1D soil model.

Site-Specific Amplification Factors
Site-specific soil AFs were computed for a 2,475-year event using the following approach:
1. Compute ground surface response spectra by propagating the suite of ground motions upward through
the LB and UB 1D soil models.
2. Compute lower bound and upper bound soil AFs as the average of the ratio of the ground surface
response spectra and the input rock outcrop response spectra for each ground motion suite.
3. Evaluate site-specific soil AFs as the weighted-average of the LB and UB soil AFs by assigning
0.5 weights to both LB and UB soil profiles.
Figures C-5 and C-6 present the individual and average soil AFs computed for the LB and UB profiles for
the 2,475-year event, respectively. Figure C-7 presents the recommended site-specific soil AFs. Figure C-8
presents the effect of site amplification by comparing the probabilistic MCE before (target rock outcrop
UHS) and after applying the recommended site-specific soil AFs (MCER).
Maximum Component Adjustment Factors and Risk Coefficients
Per ASCE 7-10, the probabilistic and deterministic MCER ground motions are to be taken in the direction of
maximum horizontal response. MCA factors are used to convert the geometric mean spectral ordinates to
spectral ordinates that correspond to the direction of maximum horizontal response. The MCA factors per
Shahi and Baker (2014) were used for this evaluation.
Risk coefficients are used to convert the probabilistic MCE ground motions (2 percent probability of
exceedance in 50 years) to MCER ground motions, which correspond to a 1 percent probability of collapse
in 50 years. Risk coefficients were calculated according to Section 21.2.1.2 of ASCE 7-10 using a MATLAB
script provided to us by Nico Luco of USGS. The risk coefficients were computed based on the seismic
hazard curves based on the average Vs30 calculated from the ground surface. Table C-6 presents the MCA
factors and the risk coefficients.

Deterministic (MCER) Ground Motions
Deterministic MCER ground motions were evaluated per ASCE 7-10 Section 21.2.2. Figure C-9 presents the
development of the crustal deterministic (MCER) response spectrum. Based on our experience in the area,
crustal ground motions generally govern when computing deterministic response spectrum, hence only the
crustal deterministic response spectrum is presented.
The deterministic response spectrum was developed by computing the 84th percentile response spectrum
for rock outcrop conditions for the Seattle Fault (MW=7.2, RRUP=2.9 km) with the average Vs30=143 m/sec
using four equally-weighted NGA-West2 GMMs (ASK14, BSSA14, CB14, and CY14) (dashed gray lines
[individual GMMs] and solid red line [weighted average]). Lastly, MCA factors were applied to convert the
deterministic response spectrum (weighted average) to the direction of maximum horizontal response
(solid black line presented in Figure C-9).
Probabilistic (MCER) Ground Motions
Probabilistic MCER ground motions were evaluated per ASCE 7-10 Section 21.2.1. Probabilistic MCER
ground motions were computed by first multiplying the target rock outcrop UHS (Probabilistic MCE) by the
recommended MCA factors and risk coefficients. Lastly, soil AFs were applied to compute the probabilistic
MCER (dashed black line in Figure C-10).
Recommended Site-Specific MCER Response Spectrum
The recommended site-specific MCER response spectrum was developed by taking the lesser of the
probabilistic and deterministic MCER response spectra and comparing it to 80 percent of the ASCE 7-10
Site Class E MCER response spectrum (allowable code minimum) (Figure C-10). The recommended site-
specific MCER response spectrum is a smoothed version of the site-specific MCER response spectrum and
code spectrum. Table C-7 presents the recommended site-specific response spectrum.

APPENDIX D
REPORT LIMITATIONS AND GUIDELINES FOR USE1
This appendix provides information to help you manage your risks with respect to the use of this report.
Geotechnical Services Are Performed for Specific Purposes, Persons and Projects
This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of ARCO Murray Design Build and other project team
members for the Logan Avenue North and North 8th Street development project. This report is not intended
for use by others, and the information contained herein is not applicable to other sites.
GeoEngineers structures our services to meet the specific needs of our clients. For example, a geotechnical
or geologic study conducted for a civil engineer or architect may not fulfill the needs of a construction
contractor or even another civil engineer or architect that are involved in the same project. Because each
geotechnical or geologic study is unique, each geotechnical engineering or geologic report is unique,
prepared solely for the specific client and project site. Our report is prepared for the exclusive use of our
Client. No other party may rely on the product of our services unless we agree in advance to such reliance
in writing. This is to provide our firm with reasonable protection against open-ended liability claims by third
parties with whom there would otherwise be no contractual limits to their actions. Within the limitations of
scope, schedule and budget, our services have been executed in accordance with our Agreement with the
Client and generally accepted geotechnical practices in this area at the time this report was prepared. This
report should not be applied for any purpose or project except the one originally contemplated.
A Geotechnical Engineering or Geologic Report Is Based on a Unique Set of Project-specific
Factors
This report has been prepared for the Logan Avenue North and North 8th Street development project in
Renton, Washington. GeoEngineers considered a number of unique, project-specific factors when
establishing the scope of services for this project and report. Unless GeoEngineers specifically indicates
otherwise, do not rely on this report if it was:
■ Not prepared for you,
■ Not prepared for your project,
■ Not prepared for the specific site explored, or
■ Completed before important project changes were made.
For example, changes that can affect the applicability of this report include those that affect:
■ The function of the proposed structure;
■ Elevation, configuration, location, orientation or weight of the proposed structure;
1 Developed based on material provided by ASFE, Professional Firms Practicing in the Geosciences; www.asfe.org .
October 29, 2019 | Page D-2 File No. 23325-001-00
■ Composition of the design team; or
■ Project ownership.
If important changes are made after the date of this report, GeoEngineers should be given the opportunity
to review our interpretations and recommendations and provide written modifications or confirmation, as
appropriate.
Subsurface Conditions Can Change
This geotechnical or geologic report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was performed.
The findings and conclusions of this report may be affected by the passage of time, by manmade events
such as construction on or adjacent to the site, or by natural events such as floods, earthquakes, slope
instability or groundwater fluctuations. Always contact GeoEngineers before applying a report to determine
if it remains applicable.
Most Geotechnical and Geologic Findings Are Professional Opinions
Our interpretations of subsurface conditions are based on field observations from widely spaced sampling
locations at the site. Site exploration identifies subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface
tests are conducted or samples are taken. GeoEngineers reviewed field and laboratory data and then
applied our professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface conditions throughout the site.
Actual subsurface conditions may differ, sometimes significantly, from those indicated in this report. Our
report, conclusions and interpretations should not be construed as a warranty of the subsurface conditions.
Geotechnical Engineering Report Recommendations Are Not Final
Do not over-rely on the preliminary construction recommendations included in this report. These
recommendations are not final, because they were developed principally from GeoEngineers’ professional
judgment and opinion. GeoEngineers’ recommendations can be finalized only by observing actual
subsurface conditions revealed during construction. GeoEngineers cannot assume responsibility or liability
for this report's recommendations if we do not perform construction observation.
Sufficient monitoring, testing and consultation by GeoEngineers should be provided during construction to
confirm that the conditions encountered are consistent with those indicated by the explorations, to provide
recommendations for design changes should the conditions revealed during the work differ from those
anticipated, and to evaluate whether or not earthwork activities are completed in accordance with our
recommendations. Retaining GeoEngineers for construction observation for this project is the most
effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions.
A Geotechnical Engineering or Geologic Report Could Be Subject to Misinterpretation
Misinterpretation of this report by other design team members can result in costly problems. You could
lower that risk by having GeoEngineers confer with appropriate members of the design team after
submitting the report. Also retain GeoEngineers to review pertinent elements of the design team's plans
and specifications. Contractors can also misinterpret a geotechnical engineering or geologic report. Reduce
that risk by having GeoEngineers participate in pre-bid and preconstruction conferences, and by providing
construction observation.
October 29, 2019 | Page D-3 File No. 23325-001-00
Do Not Redraw the Exploration Logs
Geotechnical engineers and geologists prepare final boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation
of field logs and laboratory data. To prevent errors or omissions, the logs included in a geotechnical
engineering or geologic report should never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design
drawings. Only photographic or electronic reproduction is acceptable, but recognize that separating logs
from the report can elevate risk.
Give Contractors a Complete Report and Guidance
Some owners and design professionals believe they can make contractors liable for unanticipated
subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent costly problems,
give contractors the complete geotechnical engineering or geologic report, but preface it with a
clearly written letter of transmittal. In that letter, advise contractors that the report was not prepared for
purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with
GeoEngineers and/or to conduct additional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or
prefer. A pre-bid conference can also be valuable. Be sure contractors have sufficient time to perform
additional study. Only then might an owner be in a position to give contractors the best information
available, while requiring them to at least share the financial responsibilities stemming from unanticipated
conditions. Further, a contingency for unanticipated conditions should be included in your project budget
and schedule.
Contractors Are Responsible for Site Safety on Their Own Construction Projects
Our geotechnical recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor’s procedures, methods,
schedule or management of the work site. The contractor is solely responsible for job site safety and for
managing construction operations to minimize risks to on-site personnel and to adjacent properties.
Read These Provisions Closely
Some clients, design professionals and contractors may not recognize that the geoscience practices
(geotechnical engineering or geology) are far less exact than other engineering and natural science
disciplines. This lack of understanding can create unrealistic expectations that could lead to
disappointments, claims and disputes. GeoEngineers includes these explanatory “limitations” provisions in
our reports to help reduce such risks. Please confer with GeoEngineers if you are unclear how these “Report
Limitations and Guidelines for Use” apply to your project or site.
Geotechnical, Geologic and Environmental Reports Should Not Be Interchanged
The equipment, techniques and personnel used to perform an environmental study differ significantly from
those used to perform a geotechnical or geologic study and vice versa. For that reason, a geotechnical
engineering or geologic report does not usually relate any environmental findings, conclusions or
recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated
contaminants. Similarly, environmental reports are not used to address geotechnical or geologic concerns
regarding a specific project.
October 29, 2019 | Page D-4 File No. 23325-001-00
Biological Pollutants
GeoEngineers’ Scope of Work specifically excludes the investigation, detection, prevention or assessment
of the presence of Biological Pollutants. Accordingly, this report does not include any interpretations,
recommendations, findings, or conclusions regarding the detecting, assessing, preventing or abating of
Biological Pollutants and no conclusions or inferences should be drawn regarding Biological Pollutants, as
they may relate to this project. The term “Biological Pollutants” includes, but is not limited to, molds, fungi,
spores, bacteria, and viruses, and/or any of their byproducts.
If Client desires these specialized services, they should be obtained from a consultant who offers services
in this specialized field.

Subject:RE: Topgolf Renton; High-Use Site
Hi Jenelle,
Thanks for your email. Using the data we received from existing TopGolf sites, the Renton TopGolf will not meet the trip
thresholds required for a high-use site. The minimum threshold for a high-use site is 100 daily trips per 1,000 square
feet, or 6,440 daily trips for the size of the Renton site. We looked at the daily trip counts provided from existing TopGolf
sites in Scottsdale, AZ and Edison, NJ. Both sites are also 102-bay facilities and we anticipate would be similar in size to
the Renton TopGolf. The midweek average daily volume at the Scottsdale and Edison TopGolf locations is 1,637 daily
trips, with an average of 3,160 daily trips over the weekend. These daily volumes are not high enough to reach the
threshold for a high-use site. Let us know if you have questions or if you need additional information.
Thank you,
Francesca Liburdy, EIT

Hi Francesca,

Yes, we do. We need to know if the site is considered a high-use site, which determines whether or not we need an
oil/water separator for stormwater runoff treatment. Thank you!

Hi Jenelle,
Do you still need this information from us? We will need to get some additional data from TopGolf to
determine a daily trip rate if it is necessary.

We were only provided peak hour trips rates from TopGolf. We will do some digging on Monday and see
what we can come up with.
What is the gsf for the facility? We only noted the number of bays as that was the basis for our tg
estimates.

Hi Mike,
Would you be able to provide us with an ADT number for the Topgolf Renton site for us to determine
whether we meet the definition of a high-use site (see below)? Thank you!

PROJECT OVERVIEW
DESIGN CRITERIA
The stormwater management facilities have been designed to meet the 2017 City of Renton
Surface Water Design Manual (SWDM) with reference to the 2016 King County Surface Water
Design Manual.
2017 MANUAL REQUIREMENTS
Duration Analysis: Peak Rate Flow Control Standard
(match existing conditions for the 2-,
10-, and 100-year peak storm events)
Water Quality Menu: Enhanced WQ
Downstream Analysis: ¼ mile
Since the project proposes more than 2,000 SF of new plus replaced impervious area, a Full
Drainage Review will be required. This project is subject to all nine core requirements and all six
special requirements listed in the 2017 City of Renton SWDM.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The proposed project is located at 780 Logan Avenue North in Renton, Washington (King County)
and consists of a single parcel, #20100602900006, totaling approximately 13.68 acres. The site is
currently vacant and is comprised of grassy areas throughout with some pavement areas associated
with previous site development. There are no trees on-site and there are no known critical areas,
other than a small portion at the southeastern corner of the site that is within Zone 2 of the Aquifer
Protection Area. This zone prohibits the use of open facilities for stormwater control or otherwise,
which are not being proposed as part of the development. See Figure 1 below for the Existing
Conditions Map.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 5
Figure 1: Existing Conditions Map
The site is bound by North 8th Street to the north, Logan Avenue North to the west, Park Avenue
North to the east, and office buildings with parking structures to the south. It is zoned UC-C, Urban
Center Design District C. All adjacent properties surrounding the site are similarly zoned as UC-C.
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report by GeoEngineers, Inc., dated October 29, 2019, on-site
soils are comprised of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits, which consist of very soft to
stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content.
Groundwater was observed as shallow as 4 feet from existing ground surface. The site will not be
conducive to stormwater management by means of infiltration.
PRE-DEVELOPMENT STORMWATER RUNOFF
The project site is divided into two on-site storm drainage sub-basins and one off-site tributary sub-
basin as shown in Figure 2 below. Please see further below for a general description of the two on-
site basins and the off-site tributary basin.

NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 6
Figure 2: Existing Sub-Basins Map
West Basin: Drainage from the western portion of project site (West Basin) is conveyed through
existing on-site swales and closed conveyance pipes to the basin’s connection point to the existing
municipal conveyance system in N 8th Street. From there, the stormwater runoff flows westerly to
the intersection of N 8th St and Logan Ave N. The runoff is then conveyed southerly to an existing
stormwater detention vault located under Logan Ave N, directly west of the project site. The runoff
leaves the detention vault and is conveyed northeasterly to the conveyance system convergence
point located at the intersection of Logan Ave N and Park Ave N. After this, the runoff enters a
drainage ditch and flows to the eastern side of Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park where it enters a
stream. The runoff eventually outfalls to Lake Washington. See downstream analysis section of this
report for more details.
East Basin: Drainage from the eastern portion of project site (East Basin) is conveyed through
existing on-site swales and closed conveyance pipes to the basin’s connection to the existing
municipal conveyance system in Park Avenue N. The stormwater runoff is conveyed northwesterly
to the conveyance system convergence point located at the intersection of Logan Ave N and Park
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 7
Ave N, where it combines with the runoff from the western portion of the project site. See
downstream analysis section of this report for more details.
Off-Site Basin: Off-site runoff from the Boeing property to the south enters the project site from
the Boeing 10-80 office building area and the adjacent off-site parcel to the southeast as shown in
Figure 3 below as the Boeing Basin. Runoff is conveyed by an existing 18-inch storm drainage pipe
that enters the eastern portion of the project site. As it traverses northeasterly across the property,
it combines with the runoff from the eastern on-site basin and connects to the existing municipal
conveyance system within Park Avenue N as described above. This off-site conveyance system will
be rerouted as described in the Proposed Conditions section below.
Figure 3: Existing Off-Site Conveyance Systems
PROPOSED CONDITIONS
The proposed project will consist of a Topgolf recreational facility with multiple hitting bays, a
surface parking lot, and associated underground utilities. The project will also include a mixed-use
development within the excess acreage to the east that will be developed as part of Phase 2 of
overall site development.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 8
Main access to the Topgolf portion of the site will be provided by two driveways off Logan Avenue
North. Access to the mixed-use development component will likely be from a driveway off North
8th Street and a driveway off Park Avenue North. The two developments will be connected via an
on-site drive aisle along the south side of the site. No additional right-of-way improvements are
anticipated. See Figure 4 below for the Developed Conditions Map.
Figure 4: Developed Conditions Map
POST-DEVELOPMENT STORMWATER RUNOFF
Stormwater will be managed on-site in accordance with the standards of the 2017 City of
Renton SWDM. Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak
Rate Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area. Per this standard, flow control is not
required if the proposed developed condition will not generate more than 0.15-cfs increase in
the 100-year peak flow under existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project
site is the previous Boeing development, which had roughly 95% impervious surface coverage
as confirmed by the City of Renton. Because the proposed Topgolf development will decrease
the impervious surface coverage to less than 85%, the proposed developed condition will not
generate more than a 0.15-cfs increase in the 100-year peak flow. See WWHM input and
output for the previously developed Boeing site and developed conditions as proposed in this
report in Appendix D. Flow control, therefore, is not required. Water quality treatment,
however, will be provided to clean the stormwater runoff before it is discharged to the City’s
municipal storm conveyance system.
Flows from the two existing western and eastern basins will be maintained as close to the
existing conditions as possible as described further below.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 9
West Basin: For the West Basin, runoff from the proposed western parking lot area will be
conveyed to the existing municipal conveyance system within Logan Ave N, which is the existing
downstream discharge point for runoff from the West Basin. Prior to discharge from the site,
pollution-generating runoff from the parking lot area will be directed to a Biopod Biofilter unit to
receive enhanced water quality treatment. Runoff from the proposed building roof and the
western portion of the outfield area will be conveyed to the existing municipal system in N 8th
St. The discharge point in N 8th St is upstream of the municipal system and the connection for
the treated western parking lot area in Logan Ave N.
To match the tributary areas of the western and eastern basins exactly, runoff from the
proposed outfield, which straddles the western and eastern basin boundary, would need to be
precisely split. Splitting the outfield runoff presents considerable complexity, such as the need
for multiple, separate stormwater pumps to route the stormwater runoff collected in the
outfield targets. To avoid having to split the outfield runoff, runoff from most of the outfield
area will be routed to the East Basin to its connection point in Park Avenue N.
East Basin: For the East Basin, in addition to receiving runoff from the outfield area as
described above, stormwater runoff from the proposed mixed-use development area and from
the proposed eastern parking lot area will be routed to the discharge point at the City municipal
conveyance system in Park Avenue N. Pollution-generating runoff from the parking lot area will
be directed to a Biopod Biofilter unit to receive enhanced water quality treatment prior to
discharge.
Please see Figure 5 below for the storm drainage sub-basins in the proposed condition. To
avoid additional stormwater pumps for the outfield runoff, roughly 1.74 acres of additional area
is being routed to the East Basin as compared to the existing condition. However, the municipal
conveyance system has sufficient capacity to handle the flow from this additional 1.74 acres of
tributary area as described in the Conveyance Analysis section further in this report.

PROJECT
SITE
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 20
SOILS
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report by GeoEngineers, Inc., dated October 29, 2019, the on-site
soils consist of relatively shallow fill overlying alluvial deposits. The fill was encountered in each of
the borings. The fill was observed below the pavement or topsoil, and generally consisted of loose
to dense sand with varying silt and gravel content. A thin layer of stiff sandy silt with occasional
gravel was encountered within the fill at boring B-1. The thickness of fill ranged from 4 feet up to
approximately 5 feet. Alluvium was observed below the fill. The alluvium typically consists of very
soft to stiff silt with varying sand content and very loose to dense sand with varying silt content.
Thin layers of peat were observed within the alluvium layer at various boring locations. The
alluvium soil observed at the site includes two sub-layers; upper loose to medium dense alluvium,
and lower medium dense to dense alluvium.
Groundwater was observed on-site and is located at depths of approximately 4 feet to 12.5 feet
below the existing ground surface, which corresponds to approximately Elevations 17.5 feet to 25
feet based on NAVD 88 vertical datum. Based on this, the geotechnical engineer suggests a design
groundwater elevation of 25 feet.
Per the Geotechnical Engineering Report and Geotechnical Infiltration Feasibility Evaluation, the
feasibility of infiltration was assessed at the site through review of near surface soil conditions and
groundwater levels. Due to a relatively shallow groundwater table, at approximately 4 feet below
grade, and the presence of low permeability silt soils near the ground surface, the use of small- or
large-scale infiltration facilities is not feasible at this site. See Special Reports and Studies in
Appendix B and section on on-site stormwater management BMP’s further below for additional
discussion.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 21
CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY
As required by the 2017 City of Renton SWDM, this project is subject to a Full Drainage Review.
Therefore, the storm drainage design for this project is required to comply with, or explain
exemptions for, all nine (9) Core Requirements as well as all six (6) Special Requirements. The
applicable requirements have been met as follows:
CORE REQUIREMENTS
Core Requirement #1: Discharge at the Natural Location
All surface and storm water runoff from a project must be discharged at the natural location so as
not to be diverted onto or away from downstream properties. The manner in which runoff is
discharged from the project site must not create a significant adverse impact to downhill properties
or drainage systems.
Response: Runoff will be collected on-site and discharged to one of two existing municipal
conveyance systems, to which the site currently discharges. No downstream impacts are
anticipated.
Core Requirement #2: Offsite Analysis
All proposed projects must submit an offsite analysis report that assesses potential offsite drainage
impacts associated with development of the project site and propose appropriate mitigations of
those impacts. The initial permit submittal shall include, at a minimum, a Level 1 downstream
analysis as described in Section 1.2.2.1 of the 2016 Manual.
Response: A Level 1 Downstream Analysis was completed for this project. See the Offsite Analysis
section for details.
Core Requirement #3: Flow Control Facilities
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide onsite flow control facilities
to mitigate the impacts of storm and surface water runoff generated by new impervious surface,
new pervious surface, and replaced impervious surface targeted for flow mitigation as specified in
the following sections. Flow control facilities must be provided and designed to perform as
specified by the area-specific flow control facility requirement in Section 1.2.3.1 and in accordance
with the applicable flow control facility implementation requirements in Section 1.2.3.2.
Response: Stormwater will be managed on-site in accordance with the standards of the 2017 City of
Renton SWDM. Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak Rate
Flow Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area. Per this standard, flow control is not required if the
proposed developed condition will not generate more than 0.15-cfs increase in the 100-year peak
flow under existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project site is the previous
Boeing development, which had roughly 95% impervious surface coverage as confirmed by the City
of Renton. Because the proposed Topgolf development will decrease the impervious surface
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 22
coverage to less than 85%, the proposed developed condition will not generate more than a 0.15-cfs
increase in the 100-year peak flow. Flow control, therefore, is not required.
In the western portion of the site that includes the new Topgolf building and adjacent parking lot
areas, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod
Biofilter unit for water quality treatment prior to discharging to the municipal conveyance system in
Logan Avenue N. The building roof area and western portion of the outfield surface will be routed to
the existing municipal conveyance system in N 8th St.
In the eastern portion of the site that includes the outfield area, the mixed-use development area,
and the surface parking lot to the southeast, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating
parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod Biofilter unit prior to discharge to the existing municipal
conveyance system in Park Avenue N. See flow control section of this report for additional
information.
Core Requirement #4: Conveyance System
All engineered conveyance system elements for proposed projects must be analyzed, designed, and
constructed to provide a minimum level of protection against overtopping, flooding, erosion, and
structural failure as specified in Sections 1.2.4.1, 1.2.4.2, and 1.2.4.3 of the 2016 King County
Surface Water Design Manual.
Response: Spill control requirements will be met per section 1.2.4.3.G by installation of a tee section
at SDCB#5 and SDCB#20 per section 4.2.1.1.A. Please see the Conveyance System Analysis and
Design section of this report for more information.
Core Requirement #5: Erosion and Sediment Control
All proposed projects that will clear, grade, or otherwise disturb the site must provide erosion and
sediment controls to prevent, to the maximum extent practicable, the transport of sediment from
the project site to downstream drainage facilities, water resources, and adjacent properties. All
proposed projects that will conduct construction activities onsite or offsite must provide
stormwater pollution prevention and spill controls to prevent, reduce, or eliminate the discharge of
pollutants to onsite or adjacent stormwater systems or watercourses. To prevent sediment
transport and pollutant discharges as well as other impacts related to land-disturbing and
construction activities, Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) measures and Stormwater Pollution
Prevention and Spill Control (SWPPS) measures that are appropriate to the project site must be
applied through a comprehensive Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (CSWPP) plan as
described in Sections 1.2.5.1 and 1.2.5.3 and shall perform as described in Section 1.2.5.2. In
addition, these measures, both temporary and permanent, shall be implemented consistent with
the requirements in Section 1.2.5.3 that apply to the proposed project.
Response: Construction stormwater pollution prevention measures are an integral part of the
project construction documents. These measures will include methods to reduce erosion of on-site
site soils and to prevent sediment from inadvertently leaving the project site, such as silt fencing,
inlet protection, and marking clearing limits. Erosion and sediment control measures will be
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 23
designed in conformance with the 2017 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual standards.
Please see the CSWPPP Analysis and Design section of this report for more information.
Core Requirement #6: Maintenance and Operations
Maintenance and operation of all drainage facilities is the responsibility of the applicant or property
owner, except those facilities for which King County is granted an easement, tract, or right-of-way
and officially assumes maintenance and operation. Drainage facilities must be maintained and
operated in compliance with Appendix A, or other maintenance standards as approved by the City.
Response: Please see the Operation and Maintenance Guidelines section of this report for more
information.
Core Requirement #7: Financial Guarantees and Liability
All drainage facilities constructed or modified for projects (except flow control facilities to be
privately maintained) must comply with the financial guarantee requirements and the liability
requirements of the City. There are two types of financial guarantees for projects constructing or
modifying drainage facilities; the drainage facilities restoration and site stabilization guarantee, and
the drainage defect and maintenance guarantee.
Response: A Bond Quantity worksheet is provided as an appendix to this report.
Core Requirement #8: Water Quality
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide water quality (WQ) facilities
to treat the runoff from new and replaced pollution-generating impervious surfaces and pollution-
generating pervious surfaces targeted for treatment. These facilities shall be selected from one of
the area-specific WQ menus described in Section 1.2.8.1 and implemented according to the
applicable WQ implementation requirements in Section 1.2.8.2.
Response: This site is subject to Enhanced Water Quality Treatment, which will be provided by
means of a BioPod Biofilter Unit in each of the site sub-basins. The BioPod Biofilter Unit has Ecology
GULD approval to provide enhanced treatment for the offline water quality flow rate as determined
by WWHM2012. Please see the Flow Control, LID, And Water Quality Facilities Analysis and Design
section of this report for detailed modeling inputs and calculations.
Core Requirement #9: On-Site BMPs
All proposed projects, including redevelopment projects, must provide onsite flow control BMPs to
mitigate the impacts of storm and surface water runoff generated by new impervious surface, new
pervious surface, existing impervious surfaces, and replaced impervious surface targeted for
mitigation as specified in the following sections. Flow control BMPs must be selected and applied
according to the basic requirements, procedures, and provisions detailed in this section and the
design specifications for each BMP in Appendix C, Section C.2.
Flow control BMPs are methods and designs for dispersing, infiltrating, or otherwise reducing or
preventing development-related increases in runoff at or near the sources of those increases. Flow
control BMPs include, but are not limited to, preservation and use of native vegetated surfaces to
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 24
fully disperse runoff; use of other pervious surfaces to disperse runoff; roof downspout infiltration;
permeable pavements; bioretention; limited infiltration systems; and reduction of development
footprint.
Response: Soil amendment is proposed to meet on-site BMPs requirement. Please see the Flow
Control, LID, And Water Quality Facilities Analysis and Design section of this report for more
information.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
Special Requirement #1: Other Adopted Area-Specific Requirements
The drainage requirements of adopted MDPs, BPs, SCPs, LMPs, HMPs, SDFPs shall be applied in
addition to the drainage requirements of the 2016 Manual unless otherwise specified in the
adopted regulation. Where conflicts occur between the two, the drainage requirements of the
adopted area-specific regulation shall supersede those in the 2016 Manual.
Response: There are no known adopted area-specific requirements that apply to the proposed
development.
Special Requirement #2: Flood Hazard Area Delineation
Floodplains and floodways are subject to inundation during extreme events. The 100-year
floodplains are delineated in order to minimize flooding impacts to new development and to
prevent aggravation of existing flooding problems by new development. Regulations and
restrictions concerning development within a 100-year floodplain are found in the Sensitive Areas
Ordinance.
Response: Per the most current FIRM Map, shown in the 100-year flood/overflow condition section
of this report, the project site does not lie within the 100-year floodplain.
Special Requirement #3: Flood Protection Facilities
Developing sites protected by levees and revetments require a high level of confidence in their
structural integrity and performance. Proper analysis, design, and construction are necessary to
protect against the potentially catastrophic consequences if such facilities should fail.
Response: The project site does not contain levees, revetments, or berm protection.
Special Requirement #4: Source Control
Water quality source controls prevent rainfall and runoff water from coming into contact with
pollutants, thereby reducing the likelihood that pollutants will enter public waterways and violate
water quality standards and County stormwater discharge permit limits. The County may require
mandatory source controls at any time through formal code enforcement if complaints or studies
reveal water quality violations or problems.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 25
Response: All applicable non-structural Source Control BMPs will be implemented as outlined in the
2017 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual and the 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Manual. These include Required Best Management Practices for all Properties with
Commercial Activities, Storage of Solid Wastes and Food Wastes (Including Cooking Grease),
Cleaning or Washing of Food Service Areas and Equipment, Landscaping Activities, Vehicle and
Equipment Parking and Storage, and Sidewalk Maintenance.
Roof cover over the dumpster area will be implemented as a structural source control measure.
Special Requirement #5: Oil Control
Projects proposing to develop or redevelop a high-use site must provide oil controls in addition to
any other water quality controls. Such sites typically generate high concentrations of oil due to high
traffic turnover or the frequent transfer of oil.
Response: A high-use site is defined in the 2016 KCSWDM as “a commercial or industrial site that
has an expected average daily traffic (ADT) count equal to or greater than 100 vehicles per 1,000
square feet of gross building area”. Per the email from the Transpo Group located in Appendix B,
the project is not considered high-use; therefore, oil control in not proposed.
Special Requirement #6: Aquifer Protection Area
If a proposed project is located within an aquifer protection area, the project is required to
determine and delineate applicable components on the project’s site improvement plan.
Response: A small portion at the southeastern corner of the site is within Zone 2 of the Aquifer
Protection Area. This zone may require open facilities and conveyance systems to have a liner in
accordance with the design criteria in Section 6.2.4. and Section 1.2.4.3. respectively of the 2017
SWDM. No open facilities are being proposed as part of the development.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 26
OFFSITE ANALYSIS
TASK 1: STUDY AREA DEFINITION AND MAPS
Available resources such as the survey and topographic maps were utilized to prepare the
downstream analysis. The study area extended beyond the required 1/4-mile downstream of the
project site. The two conveyance systems impacted by this development have been investigated.
Figure 9 shows the general location of the critical areas relative to the proposed project site as
designated on the City of Renton Critical Areas Map. No sensitive/critical areas are located on-site,
aside from a small portion at the southeastern corner of the site is within Zone 2 of the Aquifer
Protection Area. This zone may require open facilities and conveyance systems to have a liner in
accordance with the design criteria in Section 6.2.4. and Section 1.2.4.3. respectively of the 2017
SWDM. No open facilities are being proposed as part of the development.

FLOW CONTROL SYSTEM
Stormwater will be managed on-site in accordance with the standards of the 2017 City of Renton
SWDM. Per the Flow Control Application Map, the project site falls within the ‘Peak Rate Flow
Control Standard – Matching Existing’ area. Per this standard, flow control is not required if the
proposed developed condition will not generate more than 0.15-cfs increase in the 100-year peak
flow under existing site conditions. The existing site condition for the project site is the previous
Boeing development, which had roughly 95% impervious surface coverage as confirmed by the City
of Renton. Because the proposed Topgolf development will decrease the impervious surface
coverage to less than 85%, the proposed developed condition will not generate more than a 0.15-
cfs increase in the 100-year peak flow as compared to the existing site condition. Flow control,
therefore, is not required.
In the western portion of the site that includes the new Topgolf building and adjacent parking lot
areas, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod
Biofilter unit for water quality treatment prior to discharging to the municipal conveyance system in
Logan Avenue N. The building roof area and western portion of the outfield surface will be routed
to the existing municipal conveyance system in N 8th St.
In the eastern portion of the site that includes the outfield area, the mixed-use development area,
and the surface parking lot to the southeast, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating
parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod Biofilter unit prior to discharge to the existing municipal
conveyance system in Park Avenue N.
WATER QUALITY SYSTEM
The proposed development is subject to Enhanced Water Quality Treatment. The water quality
design flow for projects that do not require detention is equal to 91% of the developed water
quality volume as determined using WWHM2012.
In the western portion of the site that includes the new Topgolf building and adjacent parking lot
areas, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod
Biofilter unit for water quality treatment prior to discharging to the municipal conveyance system in
Park Ave N. The building roof area and western portion of the outfield surface will be routed to the
existing municipal conveyance system in N 8th St.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 55
and the surface parking lot to the southeast, stormwater runoff from the pollution-generating
parking lot area will be routed to a Biopod Biofilter unit prior to discharge to the existing municipal
conveyance system in Park Avenue N. The outfield is turf and does not use pesticides or fertilizer
and is, therefore, not considered pollution generating impervious surface. Outfield material product
data and maintenance instructions are included in Appendix H .
See Figure 14 below for the locations of the proposed water quality facilities.
Figure 14: Water Quality Systems
The BioPod Biofiltration Units are sized using 91% of the 24-hour runoff volume as estimated by
WWHM2012. Per the Department of Ecology’s GULD approval (see GULD approval below), the
BioPod Biofiltration Units treat the 15-minute water quality flow rate as calculated by WWHM2012.
However, per the 2017 SWDM Section 6.2.1, WWHM water quality flow rates require a
modification factor per Table 6.2.1.A. Therefore, from regional isopluvials in Figure 3.2.1.A and
Department of Ecology modification factors in Table 6.2.1.A, an interpolated k-value of 1.93 has
been applied to the online 15-minute WWHM2012 water quality flow rate for the western basin
and an interpolated k-value of 3.53 has been applied to offline 15-minute WWHM water quality
flow rate for the eastern basin. (The western and eastern basins were analyzed at separate times,
hence the use of both online and offline flows for sizing.) The BioPod Biofiltration Units include an
internal high flow bypass weir system to accommodate higher flows without the need for a flow
splitter.
The modified water quality flow rate from the West Basin (shown in Figure 15 below) using the
offline water quality flow rate, is 0.217 * 3.50 = 0.76 cfs with a peak 100-year developed flow rate
of 2.0891 cfs. Please note that the water quality flow rate of 0.76 CFS is 0.04 CFS greater than the
Figure 14: Water Quality Systems
Biopod Biofilter
Unit (Western Basin
Enhanced Water
Quality Facility)

Unit (Eastern Basin
Enhanced Water
Quality Facility)
note this is 3.53, resultant
difference is still acceptable.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 56
0.72 CFS flow rate to which the already installed water quality facility was designed to treat.
However, City of Renton staff has indicated this 0.04 CFS difference is acceptable.
The modified water quality flow rate from the East Basin (shown in Figure 16 below) using the
offline water quality flow rate is 0.3773 * 3.53 = 1.331 cfs with a peak 100-year developed flow rate
of 3.3183 cfs. Please note that water quality flow rate for the East Basin was calculated assuming
the basin is comprised of 90% pollution generating impervious surface to be conservative (4.14
acres). See the BioPod sizing letter below as well as the WWHM2012 input and output in Appendix
D.

CONVEYANCE SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
CONVEYANCE CALCULATIONS
The conveyance capacity of the proposed on-site conveyance system is analyzed per basin,
including the off-site tributary basins, as discussed further below.
West Basin: For the West Basin, runoff from the on-site areas, including the proposed building roof
and the proposed western parking lot area, will be conveyed to the existing municipal conveyance
systems within Logan Avenue N and N 8th Street, as described previously. See Figures 18 and 19 for
the areas draining to N 8th Street and Logan Avenue N respectively.
Figure 18: West Basin Areas (to N 8th Street)
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 68
Figure 19: West Basin Areas (to Logan Avenue N)
The peak 100-year flow from the West Basin to N 8th Street is 1.754 cfs as determined using
WWHM2012 (see Appendix D). As demonstrated in the Manning’s calculation below, the proposed
12-inch conveyance pipe through which the West Basin areas shown in Figure 18 discharge to the
municipal system in N 8th Street sloped at a minimum 0.5% has sufficient capacity to convey the
100-year peak flow.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 69
The peak 100-year flow from the West Basin to Logan Avenue N is 2.089 cfs as determined using
WWHM2012 (see Appendix D). As demonstrated in the Manning’s calculation below, the 18-inch
conveyance pipe and the associated 18-inch stub through which the West Basin areas shown in
Figure 19 discharge to Logan Avenue N sloped at a minimum 0.5% has sufficient capacity to convey
the 100-year peak flow.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 70
Combined East Basin: For the East Basin, stormwater runoff from the proposed outfield area,
the proposed eastern parking lot area, future mixed use parcel, and the Boeing Basin will be
routed to the discharge point at the City municipal conveyance system in Park Avenue N, which
is the existing downstream discharge point for runoff from the East Basin. As described
previously, runoff from the Boeing Basin, which includes the existing Boeing 10-80 office
building and the adjacent Boeing parcel to the southeast, will combine with the on-site runoff
from the eastern basin and runoff from the future mixed use parcel (here conservatively
assumed to be 100% impervious cover). See Figure 20 below for the combined East Basin areas
draining to Park Avenue N.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 71
Figure 20: Combined East Basin Areas (to Park Avenue N)
The runoff from the combined East Basin area will be conveyed by a 24-inch pipe to an existing
24-inch pipe in Park Avenue N. The peak 100-year flow from the East Basin is 6.506 cfs as
determined using WWHM2012 (see Appendix D). As demonstrated in the Manning’s calculation
below, the 24-inch conveyance pipe and the associated 24-inch stub sloped at a minimum 0.5%
has sufficient capacity to convey the 100-year peak flow from the combined East Basin.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 72
See Appendix J for detailed conveyance calculations for both the proposed on-site conveyance
system and the existing municipal conveyance system in Park Ave N and Logan Ave N. From these
analyses, the on-site and existing off-site conveyance systems are adequately sized to convey the
25-year developed peak flow as required by the 2017 SWDM Sections 1.2.4.1 and 1.2.4.2.
SPILL CONTROL
As required by the 2017 SWDM Section 1.2.4.3.G, spill control devices will be installed for runoff
from pollution generating impervious surfaces prior discharging from site. Flow restrictor (tee)
sections per Section 4.2.1.1. will be installed at SDCB #5 and SDCB #20 to provide spill control for
the east and west basin parking lots prior to water quality treatment and subsequent discharge
from the site.
OUTFIELD BASIN PUMP
As mentioned previously, the outfield is not a pollution generating surface and does not require
water quality treatment. Due to the shallow nature of the downstream stormwater connection
however, the project will require installation of a stormwater pump to convey runoff from outfield
surface drainage and targets.
The pump has been sized to handle the 100-yr peak flow of 1.82 cfs as calculated using the rational
method. The flow generated by this storm event will be completely removed within 24 hours
without ponding more than 12” at the lowest target. Moreover, the 100-yr peak flow of 1.82 cfs is
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 73
greater than the 25-yr peak flow of 1.16 cfs as calculated using WWHM, the minimum city required
storm event for pump sizing. Therefore, the pump is sized to adequately handle the required flow.
Outfield basin pump runoff inputs and outputs can be found in Appendix D. Detailed pump
information can be found in Appendix I. See Figure 21 below for outfield and target pump basin
area.
Figure 21: Outfield and Target Pump Basin
PUMP SYSTEMS DESIGN CRITERIA
As required by the City of Renton 2017 SWDM, pump systems must meet minimum design criteria
of Section 4.2.3.1. See requirements and how the proposed system meets them below.
1. The proposed pump system is privately owned and maintained.
2. The proposed pump system is used to convey water from one location to another within the
site.
3. The proposed pump system has a dual pump equipped with external alarm system.
Additional pump design and specifications can be found in Appendix I.
4. The proposed pump system does not circumvent any other City drainage requirements and
construction and operation will not violate any other City requirements.
5. Pump failure will not result in flooding of a building or emergency access. As the pump
discharge piping IE is lower than the rim of the lowest outfield target, pump failure would
result in backwater of the target drainage system until the discharge piping acts as a
release.
6. The proposed pump system has emergency backup power installed.

CSWPPP ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
ESC Plan Analysis and Design (Part A)
All erosion and sediment control measures shall be governed by the requirements of Appendix D in
the City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual. A temporary erosion and sedimentation control
plan has been prepared to assist the contractor in complying with these requirements. The Erosion
and Sediment Control (ESC) plan is included with the construction plans.
Erosion Risk Assessment
The degree of erosion risk on the proposed project site is minimal. The following factors contribute
to a low degree of erosion risk:
Slope across the site is slight. Runoff will not travel at high velocities across the site and,
therefore, will not cause noticeable erosion impacts.
The site is already stabilized with hard surfaces and the portions that will be removed will
generally create temporary closed depression areas that will trap stormwater runoff.
Construction Sequence and Procedure
The proposed development will include an erosion/sedimentation control plan designed to prevent
sediment-laden run-off from leaving the site during construction. The erosion potential of the site
is influenced by four major factors: soil characteristics, vegetative cover, topography and climate.
Erosion/sedimentation control is achieved by a combination of structural measures, cover
measures, and construction practices that are tailored to fit the specific site.
Prior to the start of any grading activity upon the site, all erosion control measures, including
stabilized construction entrances, shall be installed in accordance with the construction documents.
The best construction practice will be employed to properly clear and grade the site and to
schedule construction activities. The planned construction sequence for the construction of the site
will be provided with a subsequent submittal.
Trapping Sediment
Structural control measures will be used to reduce erosion and retain sediment on the construction
site. The control measures will be selected to fit specific site and seasonal conditions.
The following structural items will be used to control erosion and sedimentation processes:
Compost socks
Catch basin inlet sediment protection
Proper cover measures
Sediment Pond for each Site Sub-Basin (See Appendix E for sizing calculations)
Weekly inspection of the erosion control measures will be required during construction. Any
sediment buildup shall be removed and disposed of off-site.
Vehicle tracking of mud off-site shall be avoided. Installation of a stabilized construction entrance
will be installed at a location to enter the site. The entrances are a minimum requirement and may
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 76
be supplemented if tracking of mud onto public streets becomes excessive. In the event that mud
is tracked off site, it shall be swept up and disposed of off-site on a daily basis. Depending on the
amount of tracked mud, a vehicle road sweeper may be required.
Because vegetative cover is the most important form of erosion control, construction practices must
adhere to stringent cover requirements. More specifically, the contractor will not be allowed to
leave soils open for more than 14 days and, in some cases, immediate seeding will be required.
Wet Weather TESC Operating Plan
Work between October 1st and April 30th must adhere to the Wet Season Special Provisions noted in
Section D.2.4.2 in Appendix D of the 2017 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual.
SWPPS Plan Design (Part B)
A variety of storm water pollutant controls are recommended for this project. Some controls are
intended to function temporarily and will be used as needed for pollutant control during the
construction period. These include temporary sediment barriers such as silt fences. For most
disturbed areas, permanent stabilization will be accomplished by covering the soil with pavement,
building, or vegetation.
The CSWPPP Worksheet Forms are located in Appendix C. Minimum maintenance recording
requirements can be found in 2017 SWDM Section D.2.4.4.
A. Erosion and Sediment Controls
1. Soil Stabilization - The purpose of soil stabilization is to prevent soil from leaving the
site. In the natural condition, soil is stabilized by native vegetation. The primary
technique to be used at this project for stabilizing site soil will be to provide a
protective cover of grass, pavement, or building.
a) See 2017 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual Section D.2.1.2.6. for
Temporary and Permanent Seeding requirements.
b) Structural Controls – See construction plans for the TESC Plan D-2.0.
Inlet protection and straw wattles are proposed to minimize siltation
of construction activities.
c) Clearing Limits – Clearing limits are defined by the placement of silt
fence or construction fence.
d) Storm Drain Inlet Protection – Curb and grated inlets are protected
from the intrusion of silt and sediment through a variety of measures
as shown on the Construction Drawings. The primary mechanism is to
place controls in the path of flow sufficient to slow sediment-laden
water to allow settlement of suspended soils before discharging into
the storm sewer. Controls typically provide a secondary benefit by
means of filtration. Grated inlets typically include a sturdy frame
wrapped in silt fence or crushed stone-lined perimeter to slow the
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 77
flow of water. Curb inlets typically include crushed stone barriers held
in place with silt fence material or geotextile fabric. Where inlets are
located in paved areas the contractor shall install filter fabric in the
catch basin.
2. Dewatering Controls
a) The water resulting from construction site de-watering activities must be
treated prior to discharge or disposed of as specified. Accumulated water in
foundation areas, excavations, and utility trenches shall be removed and
disposed of in a manner that does not pollute surface waters or cause
downstream erosion or flooding. See 2017 City of Renton Surface Water
Design Manual Section D.2.1.7. for detailed specifications.
3. Flow Control
a) See TESC Plans D-2.1, D-2.2, and D-2.3 for layout of perimeter interceptor
swales, check dams, and sediment ponds. Onsite flow control facilities and
other provisions on the TESC plan sheets aim to prevent runoff peaks from
discharging from the project site during construction.
4. Protect Existing and Proposed Stormwater Facilities and On-Site BMPs
a) All existing stormwater facilities within the limits of disturbance are being
removed or rerouted. See Drainage Plans C-3.1, C-3.2, and C-3.3 for proposed
stormwater facilities and on-site BMPs. Proposed stormwater facilities and
on-site BMPs are separated by a minimum of seven feet from sanitary sewer
facilities and ten feet from water facilities.
5. Maintain Protective BMPs
a) See TESC Plans D-2.1, D-2.2, and D-2.3 for protective BMPs. The contractor
and designated CESCL professional are responsible for the implementation,
monitoring, adaptation, and continued performance of protective BMPs
throughout construction.
6. Manage the Project
a) The contractor and designated CESCL professional are responsible for the
implementation, monitoring, adaptation, and continued performance of
protective BMPs throughout construction. The TESC plans, SWPPS plan,
CSWPP plan, and technical information report provide a detailed construction
sequence, temporary erosion and sediment control BMP calculations, sizing,
and layout, and a template for an inspection and maintenance program for
the project to successfully manage erosion and sediment control.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 78
See 2017 City of Renton Surface Water Design Manual Section D.2.4.5. for Final Stabilization
requirements.
B. Other Pollutant Controls
Control of sediments has been described previously. Other aspects of this SWPPP are
listed below:
1. Sawcutting and Surfacing – Concrete spillage and concrete discharge to waters
of the state is prohibited. The purpose is to prevent slurry and cuttings from
draining to any natural or constructed drainage conveyance including
stormwater systems. Sawcutting and surfacing operations include sawing,
coring, grinding, roughening, hydro-demolition, bridge and road surfacing.
Do not allow process water generated during hydro-demolition, surface
roughening, or similar operations to drain to any natural or constructed drainage
conveyance. Slurry and cuttings must be vacuumed during cutting and surfacing
operation and shall not remain on permanent concrete or asphalt pavement
overnight.
Dispose of waste material and demolition debris in a manner that does not cause
contamination of water. Slurry and cuttings must be collected, handled, and
disposed at an appropriate disposal site in a manner than does not violate
ground water or surface water quality standards.
2. Dust Control - Construction traffic must enter and exit the site at the stabilized
construction entrance. The purpose is to trap dust and mud that would otherwise
be carried off-site by construction traffic.
Water trucks will be used as needed during construction to reduce dust
generated on the site. Dust control must be provided by the General Contractor
to a degree that is acceptable to the owner, and in compliance with applicable
local and state dust control regulations. After construction, the site will be
stabilized (as described elsewhere), which will reduce the potential for dust
generation.
Chemical treatments have not been approved for this site. The Civil Engineer of
Record must be contacted if these are requested to be utilized.
3. Solid Waste Disposal - No solid materials, including building materials, are
allowed to be discharged from the site with stormwater. All solid waste, including
disposable materials incidental to the major construction activities, must be
collected and placed in containers. The containers will be emptied as necessary
by a contract trash disposal service and hauled away from the site. The location
of solid waste receptacles shall be shown on the TESC Plan D-2.0.
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 79
Substances that have the potential for polluting surface and/or groundwater
must be controlled by whatever means necessary in order to ensure that they do
not discharge from the site. As an example, special care must be exercised during
equipment fueling and servicing operations. If a spill occurs, it must be contained
and disposed so that it will not flow from the site or enter groundwater, even if
this requires removal, treatment, and disposal of soil. In this regard, potentially
polluting substances should be handled in a manner consistent with the impact
they represent.
4. Water Source - Non-storm water components of site discharge must be clean
water. Water used for construction which discharges from the site must originate
from a public water supply or private well approved by the State Health
Department. Water used for construction that does not originate from an
approved public supply must not discharge from the site.
5. Concrete Waste from Concrete Ready-Mix Trucks – Discharge of excess or waste
concrete and/or wash water from concrete trucks will be allowed on the
construction site, but only in specifically designated diked areas that have been
prepared to prevent contact between the concrete and/or wash water and storm
water that will be discharged from the site. Waste concrete can be placed into
forms to make riprap or other useful concrete products. The cured residue from
the concrete washout diked areas shall be disposed in accordance with
applicable state and federal regulations. The jobsite superintendent is
responsible for assuring that these procedures are followed.
6. Fuel Tanks – Temporary on-site fuel tanks for construction vehicles shall meet all
state and federal regulations. Tanks shall have approved spill containment with
the capacity required by the applicable regulations. The tank shall be in sound
condition free of rust or other damage which might compromise containment.
Hoses, valves, fittings, caps, filler nozzles, and associated hardware shall be
maintained in proper working condition at all times.
Temporary on-site fuel tanks are not proposed for this project at this time.
7. Hazardous Waste Management and Spill Reporting Plan – Any hazardous or
potentially hazardous waste that is brought onto the construction site will be
handled properly in order to reduce the potential for storm water pollution. All
materials used on this construction site will be properly stored, handled and
dispensed following any applicable label directions. Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS) information will be kept on site for any and all applicable materials.
Should an accidental spill occur, immediate action will be undertaken by the
General Contractor to contain and remove the spilled material. All hazardous
materials will be disposed of by the Contractor in the manner specified by local,
state, and federal regulations and by the manufacturer of such products. As
soon as possible, the spill will be reported to the appropriate state and local
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 80
agencies. As required under the provisions of the Clean Water Act, any spill or
discharge entering the waters of the United States will be properly reported.
The General Contractor will prepare a written record of any such spill and will
provide notice to the Owner within 24-hours of the occurrence of the spill.
Any spills of petroleum products or hazardous materials in excess of Reportable
Quantities as defined by EPA or the state or local agency regulations, shall be
immediately reported to the EPA National Response Center (1-800-424-8802)
and the Washington State Department of Ecology at (360) 407-6300 or 1-800-
258-5990. The reportable quantity for petroleum products is per the State of
Washington is any amount that contacts public waterways or public storm
systems OR equal to or greater than 1 gallon on a commercial project that does
not contact public water systems such as creeks, rivers, lakes, or storm systems
and must be reported within 24 hours.
The EPA guidelines define spills within the public water systems as those that:
violate applicable water quality standards; cause a film or “sheen” upon, or
discoloration of the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines; or cause a
sludge or emulsion to be deposited beneath the surface of the water or upon
adjoining shorelines. The reportable quantity for hazardous materials is per the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
(CERCLA), and is any hazardous substance with reportable quantity that
appears in Table 302.4of 40 CFR parts 302, for other substance not found on
this list, the reportable quantity is one pound.
In order to minimize the potential for a spill of hazardous materials to come in
contact with stormwater, the following steps will be implemented:
a) All materials with hazardous properties (such as pesticides,
petroleum products, fertilizers, detergents, construction chemicals,
acids, paints, paint solvents, cleaning solvents, additives for soil
stabilization, concrete, curing compounds and additives, etc.) will be
stored in a secure location, under cover, when not in use.
b) The minimum practical quantity of all such materials will be kept on
the job site and scheduled for delivery as close to time of use as
practical.
c) A spill control and containment kit (containing for example,
absorbent such as kitty litter or sawdust, acid neutralizing agent,
brooms, dust pans, mops, rags, gloves, goggles, plastic and metal
trash containers, etc.) will be provided at the storage site.
d) All of the product in a container will be used before the container is
disposed of. All such containers will be triple rinsed, with water prior
to disposal. The rinse water used in these containers will be disposed
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 81
of in a manner in compliance with state and federal regulations and
will not be allowed to mix with storm water discharges.
e) All products will be stored in and used from the original container
with the original product label.
f) All products will be used in strict compliance with instructions on the
product label.
g) The disposal of excess or used products will be in strict compliance
with instructions on the product label.
8. Long-Term Pollutant Controls - Storm water pollutant control measures installed
during construction, that will also provide benefits after construction, will not be
applicable to this project since most of the pollution control measures are
already in place. Those sediment barriers that do not interfere with normal
operations and appear to provide long-term benefits can be left in place after
construction is completed.
9. Source Controls – Per Section 1.3.4 of the 2016 KCSWDM, structural source
control measures, such as car was pads or dumpster area roofing, shall be
applied to the entire site containing the proposed project, not just the project
site. Dumpster area roofing is proposed as a structural source control for this
project.
B. Construction Phase "Best Management Practices"
During the construction phase, the General Contractor shall implement the following
measures:
1. Materials resulting from the clearing and grubbing or excavation operations shall
be stockpiled up slope from adequate sedimentation controls. Materials
removed to an off-site location shall be protected with appropriate controls and
properly permitted.
2. The General Contractor shall designate areas on the TESC Plan D-2.0 for
equipment cleaning, maintenance, and repair. The General Contractor and
subcontractors shall utilize such designated areas. Cleaning, maintenance, and
repair areas shall be protected by a temporary perimeter berm, shall not occur
within 150 feet away of any waterway, and in areas located as far as practical
from storm drains.
3. Use of detergents for large scale washing is prohibited (i.e., vehicles, buildings,
pavement surfaces, etc.)
4. Chemicals, paints, solvents, fertilizers, and other toxic materials must be stored in
weatherproof containers. Except during application, the contents must be kept in
trucks or within storage facilities. Runoff containing such material must be
NAVIX Topgolf Renton – Renton, WA 82
collected, removed from the site, treated, and disposed at an approved solid waste
or chemical disposal facility.
C. Off-Site Facilities
Whenever dirt, rock, or other materials are imported to the construction site or
exported for placement in areas off of the primary construction site, the General
Contractor is responsible for determining that all stormwater permitting and pollution
control requirements are met for each and every site which receives such materials or
from which such materials are taken. Prior to the disturbance of any such site, the
General Contractor will furnish the Owner with a copy of the storm water permit issued
for each such site, as well as a copy of the off-site Owners certification statement
agreeing to implement necessary storm water pollution prevention measures. The
General Contractor will also furnish a copy of the SWPPP for each such site, including a
description of the erosion control measures, which will be applied.
At a minimum, each off-site area that provides or receives materials or is disturbed by
project activities must implement erosion control measures consisting of perimeter
controls on all down slope and side slope boundaries and must also provide for both
temporary stabilization measures and for permanent re-vegetation after all disturbance
is ended.
