HomeMy WebLinkAboutLUA80-129 July 29, 1982 OFFICE OF THE LAND USE HEARING EXAMINER CITY OF RENTON REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE RENTON CITY COUNCIL. APPLICANT: Alterra Corporation FILE NO. R-129-80 LOCATION: North of S.W. 7th Street, east of the proposed P-1 Channel , south of the old Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul Railroad right-of-way,, and west of the extension of Thomas Avenue S.W. SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant seeks a rezone of the subject site from G-1 to M-P for future warehouse and office use. SUMMARY OF Building & Zoning Department: Dismissal without prejudice. RECOMMENDATION: Hearing Examiner: Approval subject to conditions and covenants. BUILDING & ZONING The Building & Zoning Department report was received by the DEPARTMENT REPORT: Examiner on June 8, 1982. PUBLIC HEARING: After reviewing the Building & Zoning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on June 15, 1982 at 9:00 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, presented the Building & Zoning Department report, and entered the following exhibits into the record: Exhibit #1 : Application File containing Building & Zoning Department report, draft and final EISs , and other pertinent documents Exhibit #2: Conceptual Land Use Preservation Plan Exhibit 113: Site Plan indicating ERC conditions Aerial Photograph for subject area (illustrative purposes) Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding uses located north of the subject site, Mr. Blaylock advised that the railroad right-of-way and a vacant parcel are located to the north. He also indicated that the dedication areas denoted in Sections L.4.b and c. of the staff report should be corrected to 3.9 acres. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding whether the Building & Zoning Department is recommending denial rather than dismissal without prejudice of the matter, David Clemens, Policy Development Director, stated that a recommendation of denial would have precluded reapplication of the rezone within a period of one year. The Examiner requested testimony by the applicant. Responding was: i. Joel 'Haggard 1700 Daon Building 720 Olive Way Seattle, WA 98101 Mr. Haggard, legal counsel for the applicant, advised that one of the applicant's expert witnesses, Richard Carothers , landscape architect, was unable to attend the hearing due to another commitment, and a continuance would be requested if warranted. Referencing an appeal filed by Mr. Haggard on June 10, 1982 of certain conditions imposed by the Environmental Review Committee, Mr. Haggard requested that Conditions No. 1 and 2 be reviewed this date. The Examiner indicated thatialthough the appeal had been received prior to the scheduled hearing, there' had been insufficient time to publish legal notice of the appeal ; however, to expedite testimony for citizens in attendance as well as the applicant's expert witnesses , certain testimony regarding the rezone could be incorporated into the record of the appeal when it is scheduled for hearing. Mr. Haggard called his first witness. Responding was: Delton Bonds • P.O. Box 66101 Seattle, WA 98166 t • R-129-80 Page Two Mr. Bonds, one of the owners of the property, indicated that purchase had been predicated ' upon the Manufacturing Park designation of the subject site on the Comprehensive Plan, and disregarding the current economy, the request for rezone had been submitted to accommodate future needs in the community. He discussed development plans which have been proposed and discussed with city staff which include measures for retention of trees, limitation of gross size of buildings, elimination of western access to the site; and donations for P-1 Channel and wildlife habitat. Responding to staff comments in the report concerning a current surplus of Manufacturing Park zoned property in the city, Mr. Bonds advised that the majority of that property is owned by a sole property owner who chooses not to develop at this time due to high interest rates. Because a time frame of from two to two and one-half years is required from commencement of a large development to completion, approval of the subject request will allow proceeding with the project to provide additional space to meet needs which will be evident in the near future. Mr. Bonds submitted a 'graph which denotes issuance of industrial building permits in the City of Renton from 1975 through 1980 to illustrate his point. The graph was entered into the record as follows: Exhibit #4: Issuance of Industrial Building Permits in City of Renton Responding for the applicant was: David Markley Transpo Group 23-148th Avenue S.E. Bellevue, WA 98007 Mr. Markley was affirmed by the Examiner, who accepted and entered his resume into the record as follows: Exhibit #5: Resume for David Markley Mr. Markley, partner in the Transpo Group, an engineering and traffic consulting firm, advised meeting with the Public Works Director and Traffic Engineer of the city to discuss the EIS for the subject proposal , and it was determined that the document should address the overall traffic impacts of the range of possible developments , with an in- depth traffic operational study required upon submission of a specific proposal to define problem areas and provide mitigation measures. A letter from the Public Works Director confirming this matter was submitted into the record as follows: Exhibit #6: Letter from R. Houghton to David Clemens , dated August 7, 1981 Mr. Markley described the process of comparison in determining that the revised proposal falls within the limits of the o'riginal proposal in comparing square footage of building areas of both proposals as well as total trip generation. Both ranges, he noted, fall within the limits denoted in the EIS analysis. The revised site plan does not propose a connection to Monster Road, and traffic would utilize the south or east accesses to and from destinations. At the time' specific building plans are developed, critical areas to be specifically analyzed would be defined by 1-405 on the south, Sunset Boulevard S.W. on the north, Rainier Avenue on the east and the West Valley Highway on the west. Referencing Attachment D of the EIS the Examiner asked Mr. Markley if he still believed that even with mitigation measures denoted on the attachment, traffic flbw in the area will not be improved or maintained, and any new development will have adverse impacts. Mr. Markley responded affirmatively. The Examiner inquired if, i;n Mr. Markley's opinion, elimination of the westerly access to Monster Road would exacerbate traffic impacts in the area more or less than stated in the draft EIS. Mr. Markley advised that although traffic would be aggravated it would not be more so than predicted to occur in the final EIS. The , Examiner inquired if development other than office park would have a greater impact on roads, noting that a warehouse use would have less employees, thereby reducing the number of vehicles accessing the site. Mr. Markley agreed that a mix of uses would have varying impacts. Mr. Haggard asked Mr. Markley a series of questions regarding trips generated from warehouse and office uses based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual . Mr. Markley stated that 21 trips would be generated per 1 ,000 square feet of office spate with six trips per 1 ,000 square feet of warehouse space, and figures denoted in the EIS reflect 100% office use for the maximum number of trips and 60% for the low figure. Mr. Clemens inquired regarding Mr. Markley's definition of light warehousing in terms of rail-served projects . Mr. Markley stated that non-rail use of six trips per 1 ,000 square feet had been denoted in EIS figures , but rail-served use would decrease trips to five per 1 ,000. Mr. Haggard inquired if Mr. Markley concurred in Mr. Blaylock's statement that approval of the rezone itself will have no environmental impact but development that follows will have impact. Mr. Markley concurred. An explanation ofthe recommendation of the ERC to maintain a water surface elevation of R-129-80 Page Three 17. 1 feet was requested by Mr. Haggard: Mr. Clemens stated that the ERC had reviewed all analyses and concluded that the appropriate level of flood safety applied to the general vicinity of the site was a future condition for future development of the drainage basin, and the 100 year flood surface elevation is 17. 1 feet with 400 cfs maximum. As a result of that finding, the committee concurred in the requirements of the county that flood storage to that elevation should be provided. Responding to Mr. Haggard's request that the hydrology expert from the ERC, Richard Houghton, Public Works Director, respond to his questioning, the Examiner requested that since a full appeal hearing is not currently being held, Mr. Haggard should not proceed with that line of questioning. Although Mr. Haggard felt the questioning was relevant, he reserved further questions for Mr. Houghton. The Examiner advised that Mr. Haggard may make his case as far as the 100 year flood storage elevation which is independent of the ERC condition. Responding to Mr. Haggard's questioning regarding the appropriate time for evaluation of impacts from a proposal , Mr. Clemens. stated that SEPA suggests that those impacts should be evaluated at :;,the earliest possible stage, which in this case would be the time of rezone review. 'Responding to further questioning by Mr. Haggard, Mr. Clemens acknowledged that the City Council has made a determination that the land use of the property should be manufacturing park, that when a manufacturing park is proposed for development, a permit application will be made to the city, and review of the application will include additional studies pertaining to flood control and traffic. Mr. Clemens also concurred that FEMA reviews present conditions in establishing the 100 year flood plain elevation, and the subject application is the first in which the city had based the 100 year flood storage upon a 17 foot elevation. ,: Following a recess from 10:24 a.m. to 10:38 a.m. , Mr. Haggard called his next witness. Responding was: Gerald Rasmussen Senior Project Engineer ENTRANCO 1515 116th Avenue N.E. Bellevue, WA 98004 Mr. Rasmussen reviewed his educational and professional background. Responding to Mr. Haggard's questioning, he advised that. the elevation for the 100 year flood plain in the past has been 15 feet. It is FEMA's responsibility to review only the present elevation of development and not future elevations , and the discharge rate of 23 hours or until the Auburn guage reaches 12,000 cfs of unlimited pumping followed by 400 cfs discharge, a condition reviewed and examined by several hydrologists, is the estimated travel time of a release from Howard Hanson Dam to reach the Black River. Mr. Rasmussen also advised that since 1962, the Auburn guage at the Green River has reached 12,000 cfs only once (1976) . Following review and description of a three page listing of annual peak discharges of the Green River by Mr. Rasmussen, the Examiner entered it into the record as follows: Exhibit #7: Annual Peak Discharge of Green River from 1936 to 1976 Mr. Rasmussen described the procedure utilized by King County in the operation of the pump station for unlimited pumping for 22.5 hours and then 400 cfs discharge beyond that period of time. In actual practice, When a storm is occurring in the area a watch is maintained both by the county and the Corp of Engineers to allow operation of the pump station on the basis of levee safety. Very frequently., the 12,000 cfs and the 400 cfs maximum can be exceeded if the levee so permits. The Examiner inquired regarding specifics of the occurrence in 1976 when the Green River reached 12,000 cfs and whether flood conditions were occurring upstream from the pumping station. Although Mr. Rasmussen was uncertain of specifics, he stated that the 400 cfs limitation was not in existence in 1976, but was a concession obtained from the Corp of Engineers in recent years. Responding to Mr. Haggard's inquiry, Mr. Rasmussen indicated that unlimited discharge at the pump station to the river is desired because storage inundates the land behind the Black River pump station and reserve capacity is lost. Responding to Mr. Haggard 's question regarding the appropriateness of the King County procedure for operation of the pump station, Mr. Rasmussen stated his opinion that it is appropriate since it is based on actual occurrences in the field. He cited occurrence of a heavy storm in October of 1981 , approaching 100 years ; however, due to prior dry conditions in the area, the Green River was very low, it had unlimited pumping, and a' severe condition did not occur. He indicated that 400 cfs maximum discharge is a, very conservative limitation, and two factors, the intensity of the storm and the:existing conditions affect the pumping capacity, and the percentage of both of those factors occurring simultaneously has a lesser frequency than a 100 year period. Mr. Haggard inquired if any of the operating scenarios, either full storage, limiting discharge for all time, or operating in accordance with King County procedures of unlimited pumping for 22 hours followed by 400 cfs maximum and levee watching were • r t 4 R--..,-80 Page Four `. recommended specifically by Mr. Rasmussen in his report. Mr. Rasmussen indicated that no selection had been made; however, the ERC had determined that none of the recommendations would be followed. Responding to Mr. Haggard's inquiry regarding Mr. Rasmussen's recommended scenario, Mr. Rasmussen advised his choice of the three would be the procedure followed by King County, which would have a frequency of less than one percent or a return greater than 100%. Mr. Haggard asked Mr.- Rasmussen to confirm that the one condition selected ,by the ERC assumes future conditions; however, the future FEMA study which prompted the ERC's recommendation for dismissal will not consider future conditions. Also, although the ERC assumes that the P-1 Channel will not be constructed, the applicant has volunteered a dedication of P-1 Channel property. Mr. Rasmussen confirmed Mr. Haggard's statements. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry, Mr. Rasmussen described the differences which will occur with or without the channel , noting that the channel will modify the hydrograph, time water flow, and expedite the water to the dam faster than would a meandering route, and would have a benefit in confining the water within channel boundaries. Without the channel , waters will overflow the banks and flood the lands adjacent to the river in Kent and Orillia upstream from the Black River pump station. Cross-examination and response then occurred between Mr. Haggard and Mr. Rasmussen regarding the timing for providing compensating storage for the 100 year flood plain, and whether a flood level requires specification at the rezone stage. It was determined that since no development is occurring as a result of a change in zoning classification of the property, the level for compensating storage should be established when development plans are submitted. The Examiner inquired regarding computations of the holding capacity of vegetation on site to retain water during a 100 year storm to allow determination of whether removal of that vegetation would have an impact. Mr. Rasmussen felt the amount would be minimal , particularly during the flood season, but vegetation would hold some water during the growing season. Cross-examination then occurred between Mr. Clemens and Mr. Rasmussen, and it was determined that the significant information contained in Exhibit #7 is limited to data collected after 1962; that dedication of P-1 property by the applicants will not assure that the P-1 Channel will be constructed; that other costs are associated with channel construction besides the acquisition of property; and the Corp of Engineers within the past six weeks has withdrawn its permission for downstream pump stations to pump into the Green River, and as a result, the county is reevaluating its ability to discharge into that river north of the Auburn guage, although, the informal agreement had been more of a privilege than a contractual right. The Examiner inquired regarding the effect that water immediately pumped out to the Green River instead of retained on site would have on ground water recharge, Springbrook Creek;, and the rest of the wetlands. Mr. Rasmussen advised that the pump station is operated in such a manner that Springbrook Creek and other drainages in that area would not be adversely affected other than during storm conditions. The Examiner inquired regarding the effect on wetlands if no slow water recharge occurs from the 70 acre site if all water on site is immediately discharged. Mr. Rasmussen stated that all water is not immediately pumped out except during storm periods when water is emptied from the site to provide available storage for replacement. Referencing Section L.4.b. of the staff report which denotes a condition imposed by the ERC to dedicate a 3.9 acre area in perpetuity for wildlife and natural vegetation mitigation purposes, Mr. Haggard questioned Mr. Clemens regarding revisions 'in location of the dedicated area denoted on Exhibits #2 and #3. After lengthy discussion, it was determined that the specific item should be continued until the applicant's representative, Mr. Richard Carothers, can attend to testify on his own behalf. Also responding on the subject was: Tom Gessford 814 E. Pike Seattle, WA 98122 Mr. Gessford, landscape architect for Richard Carothers , described his role in preparation of graphics for the subject proposal , explaining methods and rationale for revision of exhibits following submission to the city. He also discussed field trips to the site during which certain large trees were identified from a distance as satisfactory in condition. The Examiner requested testimony in support of the application. Responding was: Loren Davis 1818 Westlake N. , Suite 308 Seattle, WA 98109 Mr. Davis , representative of Holvick •deRegt Koering , adjacent property owner to the south, advised working closely with the applicant for a period of time to resolve the ' c�s R-147=80 Page Five flood hazard issue involving both sites. Due to constraints imposed on the P-1 Channel to which the city is unable to respond, it was his opinion that construction of the P-1 Channel is unlikely. Therefore, in cooperation with ENTRANCO engineering firm, the city, and the applicant, an alternative has been developed to resolve the flood hazard issue based on providing compensating storage for the 100 year flood elevation. He supported the applicant's design criteria which are limited to current conditions in accordance with expert testimony on the flood storage issue provided by the applicant's representative. Responding to Mr. Haggard's inquiry, ,Mr. Davis reviewed his civil engineering educational and professional background. The Examiner requested testimony in opposition to the proposal . Responding was: Carol Stoner 19708 121st Avenue S.E. Renton, WA 98055 Ms. Stoner was affirmed by the Examiner. She advised that she is speaking on behalf of the Green River Study Group, which submitted a letter of response upon publication of the draft EIS. Referencing the applicant's revised site plan, she indicated concern that large trees in the riparian forest, a unique habitat in the area, are not included in the area designated for preservation. Referencing the Renton Wetlands Study, she noted that the Black River Forest was the most highly rated habitat evaluated, and the study recommended a preservation of at least 40 acres to keep the habitat intact. Ms. Stoner recommended preservation of the area around the SCS forebay area to buffer the public from birds and wildlife utilizing that area. She also indicated concern regarding the effect of immediate discharge from the property on the water quality of the Green River, noting that if the area becomes urbanized, urban pollution will become a factor. The Examiner requested further testimony. Mr. Haggard requested a continuance for the sole purpose of receiving testimony from Mr. Richard Carothers. The Examiner concurred in the request, and the hearing was continued for purposes of limited testimony to July 13, 1982 at 9:00 a.m. Time: 12: 15 p.m. CONTINUATION: The continued hearing was reopened on July 13, 1982 at. 9:05 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. Roger Blaylock, Zoning Administrator, summarized the previous hearing, noting his wish to reserve the opportunity for final ' recommendation at conclusion of testimony. Joel Haggard, legal counsel for the applicant, advised submission of a supplemental memorandum, which was received by the Examiner on July, 12, 1982. The memorandum was entered as follows: Exhibit #8: Supplemental Memorandum, July 12, 1982 Also submitted in lieu of a previous landscape guideline submission was a revised version, prepared by Richard Carothers Associates. The Exami-ner entered the document along with an additional submission into the record as follows: Exhibit #9: Modified Landscape Plan Exhibit #10: Letter to Hearing Examiner from Carol Stoner, July 13, 1982, regarding Black River Forest Mr. Haggard requested testimony by the applicant's landscape architect. Responding was: Richard Carothers Richard Carothers Associates 814 E. Pike Seattle, WA 98122 Mr. Carothers briefly reviewed his educational and professional background, and entered a resume into the record: Exhibit #11 : Resume for Richard Carothers A brief site evaluation chronology was presented by Mr. Carothers , who described broad scale environmental conditions in existence on the property. He advised that the climax riparian forest is at the end of its life span since it is no longer restoring itself with revegetation of cottonwood, ash and alder trees. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding the ultimate result if the site is left in• its natural state, Mr. Carothers advised that only the alder will reseed itself. He described the change in hydrology on the site since the early 1900's when the property was a back water of Lake Washington; R-129-80 Page Six however, at the present time, most of the water on site is flood plain residual . Addressing the matter of wildlife habitat, Mr. Carothers reviewed conditions which attract wildlife, noting his opinion that the Black River Forest is a relatively poor habitat for both birds and small mammals except rodents such as mountain beaver and rats, although the fringes of the site do provide habitat for birds. Evaluation of the site for recreational purposes and a nature preserve had occurred; however, the wetland character , of the land precludes recreational use, and a nature preserve would not be suitable due to brittle nature of cottonwoods in the climax forest and lack of potential for appropriate vegetation to encourage that use. Development potential had been evaluated, and a determination made that the site was suitable for development due to several factors including surrounding existing M-P zoning, designation in the Green River Comprehensive Plan, and previous rezoning of other sites surrounding the subject property to designations in conformance to the Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Carothers described the process of developing a site sensitive to both the preserve area and development, and the original concept set aside approximately 28 acres or approximately 40% of the property for preserve areas. However, following a compromise reached with the owner, a preserve area containing approximately 19 acres was agreed upon, that area designated to remain in a relatively large single expanse, a concept which allowed maximum flexibility for development while still preserving the large area adjacent to the P-1 Channel area should it be constructed. Responding to Mr. Haggard's inquiry regarding discrepancies in numbers on Exhibits #2 and #3 and whether Mr. Carothers has had an opportunity to review the location of large trees and their size, Mr. Carothers advised that a survey had been performed since the last hearing which confirms the numbers of large, specimen trees and their location on the site. He submitted the survey which was entered into the record as follows: Exhibit #12: Map of Tree Inventory in area of concern and Revised Plan Using a green marking pen, Mr. Carothers designated on Exhibit #12 the redefinition of boundaries of areas vegetated with large trees which should be preserved through development, amounting to just less than 20 acres in size. He noted that certain large trees located in areas for development may be retained if determined feasible by a plant pathologist or arborist, by development of wells around the trees to maintain ground water for survival . Mr. Clemens asked Mr. Carothers to describe specific considerations in reducing his original proposal from 28 to 20 acres. Mr. Carothers advised that the reduction had occurred through achieving a reasonable balance between areas of preserve and areas of development. Discussion ensued between Mr. Clemens and Mr. Carothers regarding preservation of the west end of the site and areas adjacent to railroad tracks which contain relatively few trees. Mr. Carothers advised that as a result of the tree survey, boundaries were established to preserve large groupings of trees and show a debarkation line between the preserve and proposed development. Following further discussion regarding: possible plans to clear and thin the preserve zones and intersperse a variety of' plant materials in that area should trees die out as well as protection of small stands of trees from prevailing winds, Mr. Carothers advised his recommendation for review of these matters oy an arborist during site development. - Responding to Mr. Haggard's questioning, Mr. Carothers described the broad base landscape guidelines for the project which will enhance the environmental quality of the development, and advised that corrections to Exhibit #9 to reflect modifications illustrated on Exhibit #12 will be submitted later. He also noted that although the western end of the subject site contains little vegetation, it is designated to be preserved because a roadway cannot be constructed to that area due to its potential impact to the environmental quality of the central preserve area and effect to water supply. Therefore, use of that portion for site development i.s not feasible. Mr. Haggard inquired which of the three plans, Exhibit #2, #3 or #12 would reflect Mr. Carothers' recommendation. Mr. Carothers stated that #12 reflects his recommendation subject to conditions of the landscape guidelines and subject to the tree well concept discussed above. The Examiner noted that the name of the development, Black River Office Park, indicates a proposed business use rather than manufacturing park, and he inquired why B-1 zoning had not been requested. Mr. Haggard described the concept of providing warehousing along the north boundary and constructing offices in the interior; however, the office concept will be industrially related, and the requested zoning conforms to the Comprehensive Plan designation for the subject site. Responding to the Examiner's comment that the Comprehensive Plan is not a binding document, Mr. Haggard submitted RCW 35A•63.080 into the record, which rules that although the Comprehensive Plan shall serve as a basic source of reference for future legislative and administrative action, it shall not be construed as a regulation of property rights or land uses. - - Based upon testimony previously heard, Mr. Blaylock modified the staff recommendation to R-1zg-80 Page Seven conform to specifics denoted on Exhibit #12 with the condition that specific areas • proposed to be dedicated to the SCS and City of Renton and all preserve areas will be excluded from the rezone to M-P. Additionally, Exhibit #9 contains minimum design criteria; therefore, site plan analysis and approval shall also be required prior to development. Responding to the revised recommendation, Mr. Haggard requested a brief recess to allow review of the proposal with his clients. The hearing was continued at 10:20 a.m. and reconvened at 10:33 a.m. Responding to Mr. Blaylock's recommendation, Mr. Haggard indicated concern that 28% of the total site would not be included lin a calculation of development potential by exclusion from the rezone request. He suggested instead that the entire site be rezoned to M-P and a restriction placed on the title which states that areas designated in green on Exhibit #12 should be preserved with two, conditions : 1) that legal descriptions be submitted for preserve boundaries; and 2) that structures related to the functioning processes of flood storage or storm water control could be constructed in the areas designated in green on Exhibit #12. He suggested that the dedication of the SCS area to the city for the P-1 Channel area could occur with a restriction in the transfer that the area could be used for the benefit of the entire property for flood storage if the P-1 Channel project does not proceed. He summarized the applicant's recommendations for rezone of the entire site to M-P subject to all conditions contained .in the applicant's letter of May 25, 1982 except for No. 14 as modified by the letter of June 10, 1982; subject to landscape guidelines in Exhibit #9 except as modified by Exhibit #12 and i supplemented with additional tree retention material ; and subject to conditions that a non-building restriction may be placed on all green ares identified on Exhibit #12 and that the applicant deed to the City of Renton the area identified as SCS on Exhibit #12 subject to utilization by the applicant for flood control . Mr. Clemens concurred with the applicant's recommendations to the extent that the areas designated CR or P or preserve area be dedicated as open space easements to the city prior to adoption of the rezone with the underlying title, to remain with the property owner. Mr. Haggard indicated concern with legal implications if a non-building restriction is placed on the title that development potential has been lost for the 28% of site acreage. Mr. Clemens felt that restrictive covenants do not work and become confused over a period of time resulting in a loss of original intent, and preferred dedication of an easement. Mr. Haggard asked if development rights for the dedication areas could be reserved for transfer of the property subject to the applicant's Condition No. 1 which establishes a maximum upper limit on the total development of the property. Mr. Clemens concurred. He also suggested' that the testimony of the rezone hearing be incorporated by reference into the appeal hearing to follow. The record was so entered by the Examiner. Responding to the Examiner's request for additional time in which to publish .a recommendation regarding the matter, Mr. Haggard waived the two week requirement. Since there were no further comments offered, the hearing regarding File No. R-129-80 was closed by the Examiner at 10:50 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1 . The applicant, Alterra Corporation, filed a request for approval of a reclassification of approximately 71 acres of property from G-1 (General ; Single Family Residential ; Minimum lot size - 35,000 square feet) to M-P (Manufacturing Park) . 2. The application file containing the application, SEPA documentation, the Building and Zoning Department report, and other pertinent documents was entered into the record as Exhibit #1 . 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , RCW 43.21C, as amended, draft and final Environmental Impact Statements were prepared for the subject proposal . 4. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development. 5. The subject site is located south of the Chicago-Milwaukee-St. Paul Railroad right- of-way, generally north of the Black River Channel ; and west of Thomas Avenue S.W. (extended) . 6. The subject site was annexed into the city by Ordinance No. 1745 in April of 1959 at which time the current zoning classification was applied. 7. The subject site is generally level although in the generally northwest area, fill material has been incorporated into the site as part of the railroad right-of-way. R-129-80 Page Eight The site slopes downward to the south very slightly. The elevations of the site vary and some filling will be required to bring portions of the site above the 100 year flood plain. The 100 year flood level used by FEMA had been approximately 15 feet. The ERC imposed a level of approximately 17 feet which was subsequently modified and will be based on FEMA calculations. .FEMA 'uses the current level of development to calculate the flood elevation and does not forecast future development or its impacts on flood waters. As more property is developed there are more structures with the potential to displace flood water. , There is also a corresponding loss of permeability by covering soils with buildings and asphalt paving which results in further loss of , water holding capacity. The city requires on-site retention/detention of storm water. The applicant's expert indicated•,that a conservative range for the 100 year flood would be about 15.0 feet to 17.0 feet. While the Army Corp of Engineers (Corp) presently permits pumping from the Black River's tributaries into the Green River, they have indicated that this verbal agreement is not binding' and may be subject to modifications. During flood stage the areas of the Black's tributaries' .closest to the City would pump water into the Green prior to the flood waters of the Green itself reaching. the area of the pump station. Approximately 22- hours of lead time is available for this operation. 8. The site contains about 40 acres of unique forest area consisting of wetlands and old growth riparian forest. . The water table is at or near the surface of portions of the site during most of the year. The holding capacity of the site is high while the erosion hazard is slight. The environmental impact statement prepared for the site gives an extensive hydrological and vegetational analysis of the site. The forest is one of the last remaining riparian forests in the Seattle area. The trees consist of ash, willow, alder and cottonwood. The understory is very thick and contains blackberry bushes and grasses. 9. The subject site is located immediately north of the proposed forebay for the flood control channel (P-1) and portions of said channel are located within the boundaries of the subject site. The applicant has consented to convey those portions of the previously designed channel within its boundaries subject to credit for both flood water storage capacity and land development acreage equivalencies. The applicant would have to provide on-site retention of storm water which would ' otherwise be displaced by development of the site. The dedication of land for the channel would prevent development of that land, and thereby Prevent displacement of any storm water as to that land. The enlarging of the channel to greater widths and depths would accommodate even greater amounts of water, which the applicant wants credit for storing. This credit would then allow a certain amount of water displacement from other portions of the subject site. . ., The hundred year flood level is subject to further analysis by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) . The applicant agreed to provide compensating flood storage capacity equivalent to the elevation determined by that agency. The amount of property, involved in the Channel is approximately nine acres. The exact amount of property and the boundaries would be ascertained subsequent to a survey. 10. The vegetation comprising .the riparian forest provides wildlife habitat, and a unique wetland environment. The forest also provides visual relief from the relatively flat flood plain, and the greenbelt forest area also helps retain water and cool the water by providing shade trees over the channel . The wetlands cleanse the..water of, sediment by providing wetland treatment to storm waters. The water current slows upon entry into the wetland area and sediments are both deposited due to the change in speed and filtered by wetland vegetation. Contaminants are also cleansed by the wetland treatment, a biophysical action which allows breakdown of contaminants. The wetlands also act as a sponge retaining large volumes' of storm water and slowly releasing them after precipitation has ceased. The wetlands store water from the wet periods and release them over the dryer summer months providing a more or less continuous flow of water to the area and thereby retaining the wetland,;,environment year round. 11 . The areas of significant vegetation were in contention because of the definition of "significant." While either large trees or unique trees for the region, i .e. hardwoods , could qualify,, the larger trees may actually be nearing the end of their lifespan. Significant ,trees, either singly or in stands, have been identified under both criteria, size and/or type. The applicant has indicated that larger areas containing probably about nine acres plus additional separate trees would be preserved per Exhibit #12. R-129-80 Page Nine The total preservation acreage, while not precise until legal descriptions and surveys are completed, would be approximately 11 acres. This would include the areas at the extreme western end of the site which would be more open space in nature and less forested. The larger stand adjacent to the channel: would withstand wind damage more readily and there would be little or no alteration of their environment. The separate isolated stands may succumb to wind damage or development pressures. The applicant has indicated that protective measures such as creating tree wells surrounding the trees would be taken per the recommendation contained within Exhibit #12. 12. The applicant proposes developing in excess of 900,000 square feet of gross square footage on the property depending on the parking requirements which may be associated with one or more of the possible uses. The applicant indicated a maximum figure of 995,781 .5 square feet would be developed on the subject site. 13. The number of employees would be dependent upon and proportional to the square footage. The estimate of the number of permanent employees would be approximately 4,105. Many of these employees would come from outside the city boundaries. 14. Again, the square footage and mix of uses would determine the number of vehicle trips per day attracted to the subject site and generated by the development of the subject site. The number of trips range from a low of approximately 9,070 trips to a high of approximately 34,030 trips. Peak hour trips would range from 1 ,250 to 3,970 trips for the afternoon/evening rush hour. The major access to the subject site is to the south, through the Washington Technical Plat, via Powell Avenue S.W. There is planned connection to the west via a bridge across the P-1 Channel to Monster Road. The Monster Road connection, if constructed, will not be implemented until Phase II of the Washington Technical Park development occurs. Phase I traffic will , therefore, use the southern access via intersections which are already functioning at capacity. The critical intersections are located between 1-405 on the south and Sunset Boulevard S.W. on the north, and Rainier Avenue S. on the east and the West Valley Highway on the west. While the EIS indicates that alternative routes would be used, in this area of the city there is only limited opportunity for such route selection. Increased reliance upon alternative modes such as car pools and van pools and Metro transit may hold some potential for alleviating the capacity problems at the intersections. The immediate impact will be adverse and probably cause a prolonged peak hour at many of the intersections. The peak hour which is a term which reflects the peak period and is not confined to one single chronological hour, may well extend beyond an hour. Such an increase will occur with the expanding development in the southwest quadrant of the city. South of the subject site and south of 1-405 is a large M-P zone which is part of the Orillia Industrial Park of Burlington Northern. There are approximately 458 acres of undeveloped M-P property. Burlington Northern is preserving this acreage for potential rail users. The M-P zoning of; the Washington Technical Park consists of approximately 109 acres . Development is just beginning on these lands. Other properties in the. valley are owned by individual companies and will be developed for their specific needs. 15. The subject site has about three miles of rail .lines and would be capable of providing rail service to tenants. Major access routes near the site are 1-405, the East and West Valley Highways, and Rainier Avenue S. 16. The Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of manufacturing park uses. CONCLUSIONS: 1 . The proponent of a rezone must demonstrate the the request is in the public interest and will not impair the public health, safety and welfare. In addition, the rezone must comply with at least one of the three criteria listed in Section 4-3014 which provides in part that: a. The subject site has not been considered in a previous area rezone or land use analysis; or b. The subject site is potentially designated for the new classification per the Comprehensive Plan; or ' R-129-80 Page Ten c. There has been material and substantial change in the circumstances in the area in which the subject site is located since the last rezoning of the property or area. The applicant has demonstrated that the subject site should be reclassified to M-P subject to the conditions indicated below. 2. The subject site abuts railroad right-of-way and would be imminently suitable for rail-served warehousing. 3. The area in which the subject site is located has become a focal point for manufacturing park uses , especially south and east of the subject site. The classification would be compatible with the Comprehensive Plan. 4. While access to and from the subject site during peak hours may be difficult and reclassifying the subject site will exacerbate an already critical traffic situation, the site is ideally located with reference to major highway and arterial routes , such as the East and West Valley Highways , 1-405 and Rainier and Lind Avenue during off peak hours. Alternative modes of transportation would be expected to accomplish some diminution of traffic, and the eventual opening of a connection to Monster Road will permit traffic to avoid the Grady Way/Rainier corridors. 5. While there is a question of the timeliness of the conversion of this property to M-P in light of the more than 600 acres of land already zoned M-P south of the site which has not been developed, much of that land is in the ownership of Burlington Northern and is not available to other private, independent developers. 6. The agreement by the applicant to dedicate certain portions of the subject site for both flood control and greenbelt will preserve portions of the riparian forest along with wetland habitat. The applicant will also be able to make reasonable use of the remainder of the subject site. 7. In order to maintain the natural and open space quality of the main preserve area which is that area confined to the contiguous lands and includes the channel area and ' the lands immediately adjacent to it as generally shown on Exhibit #12, the applicant should dedicate those lands to the city to be used for greenbelt and open space. The conveyance should include covenants which prohibit the development or placement of any structures on those lands with the exception of flood control structures which may be placed in and upon the lands generally defined as the P-1 Channel . The covenants should also indicate that the donee has received development credit for the acreage and the land must remain perpetually undeveloped. The remaining preserve, that is , the small pockets of significant trees indicated upon Exhibit #12 shall be protedted by the execution of restrictive dovenants requiring the preservation by appropriate means Which are indicated generally by the criteria found in Exhibit #9 and subject to the approval of the city's landscape architect with the proviso that approximately 5 square feet of land is necessary for each capiper inch as indicated by testimony at the public hearing. 8. In order to secure to the applicant reasonable use of the entire property and preserves the development benefit of the dedicated and restricted property identified above, the applicant should receive pro rata credit for such acreage. , Such credit should be ; applied to the remaining acreage or to each lot created by a subsequent subdivision on' a pro rata basis. That.. is, the 51 or so remaining acres should be treated for development purposes as 71 acres subject to the 995,781 .5 square foot maximum and other regulations of the city. 9. The applicant's dedication of the areas designated for the P-1 Channel or counterpart should be acknowledged and the applicant granted flood storage capacity credit to be utilized upon the remaining acreage. This figure will have to be derived from calculations based upon analysis by FEMA of the one hundred year flood level and further calculations of the amount of credit which would be created by the dedication and eventual construction of some form of flood control channel . The applicant's hydrologist indicated that hydrology is not an exact science and therefore the calculations will approach a best estimate which should be based upon reasonable engineering standards erring on the side of caution. 10. The elevation at which the property will have to be developed to ensure flood proofing will be determined by the FEMA studies, but until that information is available the city and the applicant will lack any basis for determining the base elevation 'for construction. Similarly, the land dedicated for the channel may not provide the full measure of equivalent storage capacity to that lost by development Kr R-129-80 Page Eleven on the site, and this will also be determined by further analysis. The applicant will have to provide equivalent storage capacity to that lost to development if such loss is greater than the capacity of the P-1 Channel acreage. 11 . The applicant should develop the land in accordance with the landscape concepts submitted in Exhibit#9. 12. The applicant has presented landscape concept plans which, supplemented by the dedication of open space and the provision of flood control acreage, appear to • benefit the public. Therefore;, the City Council should approve the request which is compatible with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and reclassify the property to M-P. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council should reclassify, the subject site from G-1 to M-P subject to the execution of an agreement implementing the conditions outlined in the above conclusions.

SHINPOCH MAYOR MEMORANDUM i DATE: November 20, 1987 TO: Black River Task Force FROM: Nancy Laswell Morris SUBJECT: DOE Administrative Order for Rehabilitation In the meeting between DOE and the City last Friday, Terra Prodan stated that DOE would be willing to compromise their order requiring rehabilitation of the Black River site by possibly "trading" some portions of the current natural area on an acre-for-acre basis for a new area to be designated natural on the Shoreline Amendment which would more realistically reflectiresources and habitat values. To that end she proposed a series of overlays which defined a possible new natural area. For discussion purposes we have planimetered the existing "natural" area and the proposed preservation/rehabilitation areas: EXISTING NATURAL AREA 20. 3 acres (north of confluence of Springbrook Creek and Old Black River channel) PROPOSED PRESERVATION/REHABILITATION AREA 20.6 acres Existing Preserve 7.7 acres 200 feet from Shoreline 3 .5 acres 600 feet from Rookery 5.2 acres S4 area from Study 2.8 acres E 02/3 and E 2/3 area 144 acres SUMMARY OF ALTERRA REZONE (Blackriver Corporate Park Site) Description: Application for rezone of approximately 71 acres of property from G-1, General Use to Manufacturing Park for future warehouse and office use. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (May 28, 1982) (Modified July 16, 1982) The Environmental Review Committee, after reviewing comments on the final EIS, imposed the following conditions to mitigate adverse impacts of the proposed office park: 1. Prior to second reading of any ordinance rezoning the subject property, the property owner shall: a. Dedicate in perpetuity for storm drainage purposes that area (approximately 9. 14 acres) identified in the SCS P-1 project as the forebay pending area, and; b. Preserve in perpetuity by open space easement to the City of Renton for wildlife and natural vegetation mitigation purposes, that area of approximately 10.5 acres, illustrated in Exhibit 12, R-129-80, as CR and P. 2 . "Any development of the subject property shall maintain the current 100 year flood storage volume at the time of actual development. " 3 . This condition was modified by the executive in a letter dated July 16, 1982, as a result of uncertainties surrounding the determination of the final 100 year flood level by FEMA. a. Adequacy of Transportation Access: Any intersection impacted by the proposed development, if above LOS- C, shall not fall below LOS-C. Any intersection below LOS-C prior to development shall be maintained at its present LOS by improvements by the developer. If the intersection is presently below 1. 0 V/C, the developer shall make any improvements to insure the existing V/C ratio. Summary of Alterra Rezone January 22, 1988 Page 2 b. Adequacy of Fire Response: The applicant shall demonstrate how ,a satisfactory response time can be established for fire apparatus. c. Adequacy of Water and Sewer Utilities: Water and sewer systems shall be established at such size capacity and location to meet the requirements of the buildable area established by paragraph 3a and 3b above and the Utilities Comprehensive Plan. 4. The cost of any capital improvements required to implement paragraph 3 above shall be the sole initial responsibility of the developer. Any latecomer provisions provided by local ordinance shall apply. LAND USE HEARING EXAMINER'S RECOMMENDATION/DECISION (July 29, 1982) The Land Use Hearing Examiner recommended approval of the rezone application to the City Council subject to an agreement implementing the following conditions: 1. The applicant dedicate the lands contiguous to the main preserve, including the channel area and the lands immediately adjacent to it, to the City to be used as greenbelt and open space. 2 . Restrictive covenants be prepared to ensure the following items are complied with: a. Prohibit the development or placement of any structures on these lands with the exception of flood control structures on lands defined as the P-1 Channel. b. Indicate that the Donee has received development credit for the acreage and the land must remain perpetually undeveloped. c. Preserve the small pockets of trees by appropriate means as indicated in the landscaping guidelines and subject to approval by the City's landscape architect with the provision that approximately 5 square feet of land is necessary for each caliper inch. Summary of Alterra Rezone January 22, 1988 Page 3 3 . The property not in the preserve area (51 acres) should be treated for developmental purposes as 71 acres subject to 995,781.5 square foot maximum and other regulations of the City. 4 . The applicant's dedication of the areas designated for the P-1 Channel or counterpart should be acknowledged and the applicant granted flood storage capacity credit to be utilized upon the remaining acreage. This figure will have to be derived from the calculations based upon analysis by FEMA of the one-hundred year flood level and further calculations of the amount of credit which would be created by the dedication and eventual construction of some form of flood control channel 5. The elevation at which the property will have to be developed to ensure flood proofing will be determined by the FEMA studies. If the land dedicated for the P-1 Channel does not provide the necessary storage capacity lost by development on the site, then the applicant will have to provide equivalent storage capacity. 6. The land should be developed in accordance with the landscape concepts in the landscape guidelines. CITY COUNCIL DECISION (December 27, 1982) The City Council approved the rezone with the passage of Ordinance No. 3694. The ordinance was accompanied by an agreement between the City and Jag-Renton Associates and Renton Property Associates providing easements for greenbelt, open space, wildlife habitat, flood control, and utilities. SUMMARY OF AGREEMENT (Renton Property Associates, Jag-Renton Associates, and City of Renton) Agreement States That: Section 1 - Condition: States agreement null and void if City does not change zoning classification to M-P, Manufacturing Park. Summary of Alterra Rezone January 22 , 1988 Page 4 Section 2 - Easement Grant: States that RPA conveys and quit- claims the City an easement for greenbelt and open space purposes and easements for flood control, greenbelt, open space, and wildlife habitat in Parcels A, B, and C. Both RPA and the City has the right to excavate the Flood Storage Control property and locate structures only for flood control. In addition, the City and Jag/RPA agree to retain property by which the City may have access across the retained property and that utility lines could be located over and across greenbelt and/or flood control property. In each case, efforts are to be made tolrestore sites to original condition after installation , and utility lines are not to interfere with existing City or other utility lines. Section 3 - Limitation: Easement rights granted the City on quit-claims basis only; areas are subject to all rights, covenants, reservations, and restrictions applied to the greenbelt and flood storage property. Section 4 - Fee Title: Discuss conditions of quit-claim of fee title to City of greenbelt and flood control properties. Section 5 - Development Credit: Discusses that the retained property will be treated as if it included the area of the greenbelt property and flood control property within its boundaries and credit retained property with the flood storage capacity of the flood control property and that no buildings, structures or improvements in the conveyed properties shall reduce the number of gross square feet which may be constructed nor increase flood storage capacity for the retained property. Section 6 - Joinder: Agreement to join in any further conveyances described in Section 4 binding on Hansen successors. Section 7 - Miscellaneous: Discusses how document could be used and that it was binding on all parties and heirs, successors and assigns of the agreement. Rezone for Holvick, deRegt, and Koenig R-072-82 Description: Rezone of 25.89 acres of property for G-1 to M-P for office/research and development use. Environmental decision: The Environmental Review Committee issued a memorandum of concurrence. Blackriver Disc-a:blksum 3595Z BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK FEIS SYNOPSIS OF COMMENTS FROM GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND UTILITIES U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE - SOIL CONSERVATION SERVICE:- - (06-01-81) The Soil Conservation Service recommended that development be deleted north and northeast of the Black River pump plant. They also felt the riparian forest is not recognized as . a natural resource having "scientific and educational value", but instead,, more of a visual resource. They questioned. that isolated trees to be preserved may not survive because of the change of , the ecosystem. They also feel that the forest is an important design feature of the Green River's holding pond and good for wetland wildlife habitat. They desired clarification as to drainage into the area because of the wetland, and . finally, the adequacy of the present road for high volume traffic was questioned. STATE OF WASHINGTON - DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES: (05-28-81) Because a 50 foot setback would be maintained from the bank of the Black River channel, they wanted to know what was considered the top of the bank and what would be the physical dimensions and configurations of the riparian zone. They were encouraged that oil/water separators would remove most pollutants from stormwater runoff. They realized that urban pollutants would increase with runoff and wanted to know its effect upon the wetland. They also wanted to know if the character of the riparian wetland (70 acres) would be altered. They corrected the E.I.S. in that chum salmon do not migrate into Springbrook Creek. They felt it helpful to show- how the project would relate to the plans developed by the SCS for flood storage upstream of the P-1 plant. Finally, they noted that a Hydraulic Project Approval issued by the Department of Fisheries and the Department of Game would be required prior to the start of any work within the "ordinary high flow line of Springbrook Creek, the Black River, or their tributaries". STATE OF WASHINGTON - DEPARTMENT OF GAME: (06-08-81) They felt that the woodlands was important for fish and wildlife resources and is useful to maintain winter and summer stream flows. The project proposal would have serious consequences also for water quality because the loss of : wetlands would reduce dissolved oxygen in the creek and river during summer flows. pp Rvopp sarEIS synopsisf commmentfom Governmental Agencies and Utilities Page 2 They state that water quality degradations would impact fish resources of Springbrook Creek and the Black River. They stressed the importance of wetlands for wildlife habitat - especially along streams and how the loss of wetlands would be mitigated. In summary, ' they were concerned with the loss of the public's fish and wildlife resources because of the project and stressed that growth would have' to be planned for fish and wildlife to survive with urbanization. STATE OF WASHINGTON - DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION: (05-18-81) They estimated that 9,070 to 34;030 vehicle trips per day would pass through the Monster Road/Sunset boulevard intersection, and that it may require rechannelization and possibly signalization of that intersection. They wanted the developer to pay for the street improvements since they had no money in their operating program. SEATTLE/KING COUNTY COMMUTER POOL': (05-28-81) They were encouraged of the methods addressed that gave alternatives to the single occupancy vehicle. They did recommend for a detailed study to explore the potential for supplementing an aggressive ride sharing program which would include preferential carpool/vanpool parking, sponsorship of a vanpool program, and other affirmative efforts as a means to reduce the traffic/parking impacts. They feel from experience, that in order for large numbers of commuters to change their travel behavior, they must be given the opportunity to do so through an organized ridesharing program. They also included a list of possible methods that the proponent could employ in devising solutions to the traffic/parking problem. METRO: (05-26-81) With respect to Wastewater Facilities/Water Quality, the following concerns were addressed: ! 1. Design and maintenance plans for the on-site stormwater detention facilities should be incorporated into the final E.I.S. Also, the riparian forest and wetland would serve in the control of stormwater control system if saved from,development. 2. They wanted the proponent to provide a schedule of the East Watershed Project as it relates to the schedule for development of the office park. With respect to transportation, METRO's Transit Development Division was mentioned for possible extentions to the site, and their Customer Assistance for transit incentive measures. �, Black River Office Park FEIS • Synopsis of Comments trom Governmental Agencies and Utilities Page 3 • PUGET SOUND AIR POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY: (05-27-81) They did not feel that air quality was addressed well because of the impact of traffic and suggested that on-site monitoring and modeling be performed to determine current and future carbon monoxide concentrations; They also stated that upgrading of existing roadways and other mitigating measures discussed in the E.I.S. should be implemented. KING COUNTY - DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: (05-29-81) They felt that the future E.I.S. and site plans should acknowledge the significance of the Springbrook Creek riparian edge and discuss how to minimize adverse affects that would compromise enhancement plans for the storage pond area. They also did not feel .a rezone decision should be made until environmental and economic consequences of the proposed development are substantially evaluated and completed. Studies as part of the County-wide parks and open space bond program, recommended the property as the third highest priority wetland for acquisition under the bond program. They did not feel that mitigation proposed would be adequate to compensate for the detrimental impacts of the proposed project. Their letter went on to discuss other areas of concern, i.e. , impacts of recreation, the flood storage pond upstream of the P-1 pump plant, saving of top soils, erosion potential, surface runoff, flooding elevations, vegetation, street access, fire services, educational value of area, linkage to other parks and facilities, wetland treatment, use and open space of the site and concentrated development of the site. . i . BLACK RIVER CORPORATE PARK HISTORY & CHRONOLOGY OF LAND USE DEVELOPMENTS FOR PORTIONS OF PARK SURROUNDING FOREBAY • ''• Rezone for John Hanson - file R-432-79 Description: Rezone of approximately 40 acres of property from G to M-P. _ - Environmental Decision: October 29, 1979: The Responsible Official issued a proposed declaration of significance due to: 1) limited access, 2) the substantial impact on the riparian forest, and 3) impact on the P-1 channel program together with the impact of the removal of vegetation on the wildlife. The Black River Office Park E_IS was prepared: c. Unique Physical Features Impacts Development of the proposal will necessitate removal of 38.6 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site. I Mitigating Measures - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50 to 100 foot setback from the top of the bank. 3. Water a. Surface Water Quantity/Quality Impacts Increased surface runoff from the site as well as increased levels of polluted surface runoff would result from the proposed action. Alteration of runoff characteristics will occur in that diversion of stormflow into ditches and storm pipes will prevent water from flowing to low lying areas and may cause some drying up of wetlands that will be preserved on site, unless storm drainage measures are undertaken to protect them. . I Black River Corporate Park History & Chronology Page 2 Mitigating Measures , - Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. - Stormwater runoff will be collected in a,__storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. - Oil/water separators should be utilized to remove petroleum products from storm water. ... - Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. - Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the, Black River Channel . b. Floods Impacts Fill material will be utilized to bring building sites above the 100 year flood elevations. Mitigating Measures - Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 year flood plain which will prevent on-site flooding. - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amounts of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. c. Groundwater Quantity/Movement Impacts Project development would result in an increase of impervious surface on the site, which would decrease the amount of infiltration of precipitation. • Mitigating Measures A reduction in building site coverage could require less filling. Black River Corporate Park History & Chronology Page 3 4. Flora -- - Impacts Approximately 84% of the site consists of a unique wetland deciduous forest, a part of the largest forest of this type in- the Seattle area. As a result of the proposed action about 78% of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced by building foundations, roads and parking areas. Mitigating Measures - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - Placement of building sites, parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. - Vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. 5. Fauna Impacts Removal of most wildlife habitat and reduction in most native wildlife due to intrusion of human activity. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. - As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. - Surface water quality along Black River should be preserved by planti7g natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible.

It was noted that an EIS would be required prior to site development. The checklist noted that there may be some changes in the diversity of species or numbers of any species of fauna and that there would be no reduction of the number of unique, rare or endangered species of fauna (p. 4 of checklist). Earlington Park EIS (DEIS - July 1980 and FEIS - May, 1981) SUMMARY OF MITIGATIONS * - Those mitigations which are presently scheduled to be implemented by the developer are noted with an asterisk. EARTH * The City's requirements on grading and excavation will be followed. (Phases 1 and 2) * The recommendations of the souls engineer will be followed. (Phases 1 and 2) • Detailed soils profiles will be established when final site plans are avai$able. These profiles will facilitate design of the most suitable footings and minimize the need for excavation or structural fill to accommodate foundations. (Phases 1 and 2) An alternative site design could preserve the northern portion of Springbrook Creek in open space. (Phase 2) • EROSION • Restrict major clearing and filling activities to summer months. (Phases 1 and 2) Revegetate exposed xposed soils in a timely manner so as to prevent further erosion. (Phases 1 and 2) ▪ Retain vegetation buffer strips between construction activities and streams and associated wetlands. (Phases 1 and 2) Black River Corporate Park History & Chronology Page 5 AIR (Phases 1 and 2) * Utilize low-emission construction equipment whenever possible. * Measures to control construction dust, such as watering and reseeding of cleared areas, cleaning and sweeping of streets will be implemented. Refer to the mitigating measures under "Transportation/Circulation- vehicular Transportation Generated" on page 73 of this document. WATER (Phases 1 and 2) * The vegetation along the remaining 1.89 acres of old Black River Channel will be retained and enhanced with additional plantings. * The existing 60-inch storm sewer outfall will be extended approx- imately 550 feet to the west. * All site runoff, save for the northwest portion drainage, will be dis- charged into the upstream end of the old Black River Channel, where it will undergo wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek/Black River. * Careful construction practices will prevent litter, debris or other pollutants from entering drainage. Utilize temporary detention ponds during construction phases to collect silt. * Collect stormwater runoff in a storm sewer system, as approved by Renton Public Works Department. • Utilize catch basins and screens to collect litter and debris. ▪ Utilize oil/water separators to retain gas, oil and grease for removal from stormwater. ▪ Settling basins would remove solids from runoff. Skimmers would remove petroleum Products and floating debris. Provide adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system. * The drainage from the northwest portion of the site will be directed to either an on-site detention pond or the P-1 Channel if it is constructed. Wetland treatment could be enhanced by constructing a gabion at the downstream end of the Black River Channel as a means of increasing runoff detention time and increasing surface water contact area for the one- year storm and smaller flows. Black River Corporate Park History & Chronology Page 6 3 ' FLORA/FAUNA (Phases 1 and 2) * Retention of as many of the existing trees as possible through sensitive site planning as indicated in Figure 4, p. 2 of the Draft EIS. * A landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and consistency throughout the site. * Retain vegetation outside of road and railroad improvements until buildings are constructed, as feasible. The new landscaping plan should include compatible and similar species to the existing vegetation. Minor modifications of building siting could occur based upon tree inventories provided by field surveys. * New natural riparian vegetation shall be planted along the drainageway banks, providing cover and habitat. Utilize landscaping materials, that provide food sources for birds and small animals. Mitigations to preserve surface water quality should be implemented. • � I s II 9 I d • Black River Corporate Park History & Chronology Page 7 • Rezone for Alterra - file R-129-80 Description: Rezone of 71.116 acres of property from G-1 to M-P for future warehouse and office use.

I:aSTORY/BACKGRoD: The subject site was annexed into the City by Ordinance No. 1745 of April 14 , 1959 at which time the present zoning classification was applied. D. Pl; ,SICM BACKGROUND: • 1 . Topography: The site is generally level with variations in elevation of approximately 12 feet where a large amount of fill has be placed. To the south of the railroad tracks the site slopes slightly downward toward the south at a minor gradient. 2 . Soils : Tukwila Muck (Tu) . Permeability is moderate. There is a seasonal high water table at or near the surface. Available water capacity is high. Runoff is p"onded and the erosion hazard is slight. If drained, the woil is used for row crops . It is also used for pasture. Woodinville Silt Loam (We) . Permeability is moderately slow. There is a seasonal highwater table at or near the surface. Runoff is slow and the erosion hazard is slight. • Stream overflow is a severe hazard unless flood protection is provided. This soil is used for row crops , pasture and urban development. 3. Vegetation: The southerly portion of the property consists of the floodplain of the old Black River channel while the northern part is heavily wooded • riparian forest composed of ash, willow, alder and other species of trees with an understory of blackberries and grasses . 4 . Wildlife: The existing vegetation provides suitable habitat for a variety-of birds, mammals , reptiles and fish. 5 . Water: A number of locations with standing water are found on the subject site. 6 . Land Use: Between the site and the Renton Shopping Center are a scattering of single family homes . South of these homes and east . of the site the' land use consists mainly of warehousing and some office buildings. To the •south is the site of the old Earlington Golf Course, the METRO Treatment Plant • and the P-1 pump station.

DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: 1 . The subject site was annexed to the City in 1959 , at which time the present zoning of "G" General Use Classification was applied. . The property ' has not been considered except in the Green River Compreh- ensive Plan since the time of annexation. Thus, this would appear to comply with Section 4-301•4 (C) (1 ) (a) of the Land Use Hearing Examiner Ordinance. 2, In 1979, Ordinance #3344 rezoned the adjacent property to the south, commonly known as the Earlington Golf Course from "G" General Use to M-P, Manufacturing Park.. Development of that 90+ acre parcel..has not occurred. Further to the south and east Earlington Industrial Parks #1 and #2 were developed in the late 1960 ' s after being rezoned in 1966 to manufactur- ing park by Ordinances 2237 and 2205 . This would appear to comply with the third criteria under Section 4-3014 (C) (1 ) (c) that states that the subject • property has undergone significant and material change as a result of other public and private developments in the area. 3. The applicant on May 25, 1982, modified the basic application by specifically submitting a revised site plan along with 14 qualifications (copy attached) . In actuality these are more of design qualifications which would be reviewed at the time of site plan approval and should not be included in the rezone except for the necessary dedications for storm water storage and natural areas. 4. The Environmental Review Committee on May 26th imposed additional conditions to mitigate or avoid adverse impacts from the proposal under Section 4-2810 (C) of the City of Renton Environmental Ordinance (copy attached) . Specifically, they required prior to second reading of any ordinance rezoning the subject property, the property owner shall a. Dedicate in perpetuity for storm drainage purposes the entire area identified in the Soil Conservation Service P-1 Project as a forebay ponding. b. Dedicate in perpetuity for wildlife and natural vegetation mitigation purposes that 3. 5 acre area illustrated for dedication to the City of Renton on the applicant' s revised site plan. c. Preserve in perpetuity by restrictive covenant running with the land for additional wildlife and natural vegetation mitigation an area of 8.5+ acres parallel to and contiguous with the dedicated 3. 5+ acre dedication. In addition, the ERC required that any development of the subject property shall maintain the current one hundred year flood storage volume of water surface elevation of 17. 1 feet msl (equivalent • to future conditions with 400 cfs maximum discharge) . • • PRELIMINARY REPORT THE HEARING EXAMINER • ALTERRA CORPORATION' JUNE 15, 1982 PAGE FIVE The ERC specifically denotes that future environmental review of total building floor area and type established will be considered as separate projects and not included in the environmental review for the rezone. Review at that time shall specifically look at the adequacy of (1 ) transportation access, (2) fire response, and1 (3) water and sewer utilities. With the further condition that any capital improvements required to implement adequate public services shall be the sole initial responsibility of the developer with any latecomer provisions provided by local ordinance' shall apply. 5. The proposal as originally submitted to rezone the 71 . 16 acres to manufacturing park would allow a greater development potential than that modified by the letter of May 25th. The ERC has limited the project to a further degree by the conditions imposed. However, it should be pointed out that the property is still developable under those con- ditions. It may require substantial design modifica- tions to include buildings located on pilings and additional storm water storage areas for the increased surface water runoff from the site. The conditions imposed by the Environmental Review Committee were based upon the environmental impact statement and the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and Green River Plan. 6. Even though the subject proposal complies with the Comprehensive Plan designation of Manufacturing Park, it does not specifically comply with the intent of the goals and policies. The primary issue revolves around the flood water storage on the subject site. At the present time, the site is a natural flood water storage area for the Eastside Water Project of the Green River Valley. Under the goals and policies established by the City in 1980 under the Balanced Development Objective, it states, "Urban development should be permitted when it is compatible with the natural and human environment. " It is a fact that the area serves as a necessary natural environment along with its flood storage capabilities. Under the policies established for open spaces (1 .C. 1 and 2) , "existing open space that serves • a public purpose should be retained and made available for a variety of open space uses. " The public purpose and use of this open space is for flood water storage. The policies go further to state, "Natural vegetation', ravines, slopes, and water bodies should be preserved to retain open space. " This is supported by the wildlife policies #1 and #2, which state, "Desirable natural vegetation should be retained wherever possible. " and furthermore, "An unique and/or fragile areas desirable natural vegetation should be retained or enhanced. " The Environmental Review Committfee' s requirement of an additional 8. 5 acres in open space is specifically correlated to the primary location of a major portion of the riparian forest. Many large trees measuring in excess of six feet in diameter will be saved by inclusion of this 8. 5 acre area, thus supporting both the natural wildlife area and the necessary flood storage issues of the Comprehensive Plan. PRELIMINARY REP(. TO THE HEARING EXAMINER ' • ALTERRA CORPORAi1•6A JUNE 15, 1982 PAGE SIX Under Section 1 .G. 11 , Policies for Surface Drainage, it stated, "Storm water should be retained on site and then released at a natural rate and quality. -- . The •City storm drainage system should be designed to incorporate natural drainage features. " . The Black River Channel was originally the outlet for Lake Washington. With changes in the lake level • at the early part of this century, the Black River Channel' s function was changed. However, it retained its flood storage capacity and natural environment as a result of water coming in from the south out of the Green River Basin. Inclusion of this natural area as part of the storm water storage area would support this policy. Policy 1 .H. 5. also supports non-development of the subject site by stating "Selected marshes, bogs and swamps should be preserved and enhanced. " All of the issues focus upon the policies established under the Flood Plain Objective, 1 . I. , of the Goals and Policies of the City of Renton- Comprehensive Plan. It specifically states its objective as "to protect life and property and provide open .space floodplains' should be preserved and enhanced. " The Policies state, (1 ) "Land uses within floodplains should be limited to those not harmed by flooding. " ; (2) "Land uses should not cause backwater or increase the velocity of water. " ; and (3) "Fill should be allowed only when alternatives of design and location are not available. " The Environmental Review Committee' s conditions require the present on site flood storage cpacities to be maintained. Increased surface water run off will have to be provided per the final EIS and ERC decision. 7. The Green River Comprehensive Plan supports the above goals and policies of the general Comprehensive Plan for the City of Renton. At the original time of implementation of that plan in 1976, its goals included the preservation' and/or enhancement of wildlife habitat. This is definitely an area of major wildlife significance. Under the Valley Objectives, Land Use, it states that "Certain areas should be retained in their natural state to meet U. S. Soil Conservation Service requirements and community needs for mitigation of wildlife habitat and open space. " In addition, greenbelts should be expanded into suitable areas.. The landscaping and open space objectives suggest that large areas should be permanently reserved and maintained for wildlife habitat and wherever feasible unique natural features should be incorporated into the development plans to preserve the character of the Valley. Concern was stated over premature expansion of industrial activities. In the past we have seen large tracts filled and nothing developed on them. The policy states fairly clearly that "Areas set aside for future expansion should remain in the ' original state or rehabiltated to support wildlife until expansion is needed. " • • • PRELIMINARY REPORT ' I'HE HEARING EXAMINER ALTERRA CORPORATION JUNE 15, 1982 PAGE SEVEN • 8. A unique and perplexing situation arises in that the applicant is proposing dedication of major portion of the forebay necessary for the development of the Eastside Watershed Project to support the City into granting the rezone. However, granting of the rezone should not be predicated solely upon this issue. Benefit to the general public of zoning and developing the subject site must be fully weighed. 9. The fourth criteria that must be evaluated in any rezone process is a question of timeliness. The applicant has not demonstrated either in the application or in the disclosure through the environmental impact statement that rezoning the subject site is warranted at this time. In fact, on page 68 of the final EIS under comment #7, the data shows that the City of Renton presently has a surplus of property zoned Manufacturing Park. Some of the estimated +1 , 000 acres of potentially zoned property has been developed, however, under recent rates of industrial development there are sufficient areas for industrial expansion for many years. Based upon past performance of industrial sites with rail access, it should be pointed out that. very little development has occurred in the Glacier Park development in the southern portion of the Valley floor during the last 4 years. In fact, the preliminary market for the adjacent Washington Technical Center suggests that rail access demand is very low, and the site plans now on file have eliminated the rail access. 10. At the present time the FEMA, Federal Emergency Management Association., is recalculating the storm water drainage system for the Black River basin. Without specific data any development or approval of any rezone of the subject site at this time would be premature. Once the FEMA flood hazard study is complete the City will ,be able to more precisely determine the development potential of the subject site. 11 . The applicant has not shown either the precedent or the timeliness of the proposed rezone. The primary issue of storm water storage is insurmountable and in itself would suggest denial. However, adding to this the fact the City has extensive property presently zoned manufacturing park that' is undeveloped. and without active economic indicators that would suggest potential development within the near future, it would appear that the application .is similar to those approved in the 1960' s which were not developed for extensive periods of time and is inappropriate and untimely. M. DPPM E1 iTAiL; !$( DATION Based upon the above analysis, it is recommended that the rezone request by Alterra Corporation, R-129-80, be dismissed without prejudice and reheard when the FEMA study is complete. • L • .

The EIS was 20 used by the applicant to consider the viewpoints of our 21 agencies and people, by the rezone. And out of this 22 23 listening and learning process has evolved a sensitive and sensible balance between land preservation and land 24 25 utilization. 26 Utilizing the expertise of Mr. Richard Carothers 27 in informal consultation with City Staff (NOTE: in no way 28 Applicant' s Pre-Hearing HAGGARD,TOUSLEY&BRAIN Brief a 1 ATTORNEYS AND COUNSELORS AT LAW 1700 DAON BUILDING 720 OLIVE WAY SEATTLE,WASHINGTON 98101 624-5299 1 . do .we' presume to, suggest..such consultation has resulted. in 2 Staff concurrence) and the owners, a, revised site 3 development master plan was developed. The key elements 4 of the masted plan concept are reflected in Exhibit 5 (to be identified in the hearing) •and provide for 6: i. a) Dedication: of 9. 14 acres to the City for use solely for the. P-1 Channel and 8 associated facilities; 9 . . b) Preservation of about .10 .52 acres. in 10 . its existing state land, basically. on 11 the western and southern portions of 12 . the site; 13 • . c) Limitation of the maximum gross square 14 footage of building to 995 ,781.5 square 15 ' feet; and 16 d) Establishment of Landscape Guidelines 17 : . , in excess of City code requirements to 18 govern development implementation. 19 Other conditions proposed as part of this rezone are 20 included in our letters of May 25 and. June •10 , 1982. 21 We have also revised the traffic access to , 22 preclude road construction through the western portion of ! 23 the site. As Mr. David, Markley 'of TRANSPO will testify 24 the revised proposal yields maximum traffic impacts within ' 25 the range of that already considered in the EIS. So what 26 the revised proposal does is reduce the maximum traffic 27 -- _ 28 -- Applicant ' s Pre-Hearing Brief 2 1 impact considered in the EIS while at the same time 2 allowing the western portion of the site to be preserved. 3 We however have agreed with Mr. Houghton' s recommendation 4 for development traffic studies (See Haggard, Tousley and 5 Brain letter of June 10 , 1982 ) so further refined review 6 will be assured. 7 Itiis strange that the, Staff report mentions 8 little of anything as to the extensive, good faith efforts 9 the owners. hs gone to in assuring a sensitive and 10 sensible balance between preservation and utilization. We. 11 recognize that Staff has obliquely inferred that the 12 dedication of the P-1 channel , area is of public benefit. 13 And surely it .is for such dedication will accellerate the 14 timetable and provide substantial savings to the City 15 ( i. e. , about $400,000 to $500 ,000) . The Staff apparently . 16 discounts this by saying that the rezone should not be 17 predicated solely upon this issue. Certainly we agree - 18 but it is a significant, though not sole, reason. As 19 discussed below there is a presumed public interest since 20 the rezone exactly implements the Comprehensive Plan. And 21 there is a public benefit in also preserving an added 10. 5 22 acres. 23 THIS REZONE PROPOSAL NOW IMPLEMENTS THE CITY'S 24 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN 25 The Court of Appeals (Division II ) stated in 26 . dicta that a , nonproject zoning action has no immediate or 27 -- 28 -- Applicant ' s Pre-Hearing. . Brief 3 l measureablelenvironmental consequences. See Ullock v. 2 Bremerton, 17 Wn. App. 573, 581 (1977 ) . This is 3 self-evident when considering only the, action of zoning. 4 For indeed subsequent proposals to develop rezoned ' 5 property entail separate governmental review of what is 6 proposed and its projected environmental . consequences. 7 While it is ,appropriate (in fact necessary) under SEPA to 8 consider the total proposal, i .e. , zoning 'and development 9 enabled thereby, ' SEPA. provides' no basis for enlarging the 10 City' s scope, of decision-making with respect to zoning 11 . decisions. See RCW 43.21C.060. This conceptually has 12 '' been discussed by the Court of Appeals (Division II ) in 13 dicta when it wrote in Ullock v. Bremerton, supra, that: 14 ; " . . .It would be unreasonable to require every rezoning petition to be accompanied by 15 'a' site plan solely to generate exact environmental consequence information. . . 16 j It would also make zoning changes depend upon development projects, rather than 17 desirable long 'range`:planning . " 18 This rezone proposal is properly reviewed as a i 19 planning effort. implementing the City' s Comprehensive 20 ' Plan.: As a planning activity, this rezone exactly 21 implements the City' s Comprehensive Plan. Revised just 22 . recently (January, ' 1980) the Renton Comprehensive Plan 23 , ' designates the site for light industry or manufacturing 24 park. That is exactly what we are requesting. The more 25 , specific Green River .Valley ' Comprehensive Plan done about 26 3 1/2 years earlier recommended manufacturing park. That 27 -- �. '28. -- Applicant 's Pre-Hearing . Brief , 4 1 1 is exactly what we are requesting. Both these plans are 2 adopted policy of the City and this rezone should be 3 granted as an "official control" implementing those 4 plans. [Welrequest the Examiner to take. Official Notice 5 of each P'lari' s land use designation for the site] . 6 Land Use planning involves both the development 7 of a Comprehensive Plan and official, controls to implement 8 it . One fundamental control is zoning . The City has no 9 adopted regulation establishing that rezones are to be 10 withheld until all other land zoned as the rezone requests 11 is used. Inldeed, such an approach is the antithesis of 12 proper planning and contrary to the Ullock case' s 13 reasoning since this approach wold coerce rezoning to 14 depend upon specific development projects. Accordingly, 15 the City's contention that this zoning is premature due to 16 the existence of unused MP zoned proper is inappropriate 17 But, the Staff' s contention that the zoning is 18 premature also ignores critical facts distinguishing this 19 site from others. The City, in its own EIS for this 20 proposal, admits that this zoning action may be considered 21 as "in-filling. " See pp. 57, 68 Final EIS. And indeed 22 ' the specific facts of this case support independently that 23 conclusion due to Earlington Park on the south and a 24 natural topographic break ( i . e. , the railbed) on. the 25 north. The Hearing Examiner' s prior findings in the 26 Earlington Park case (PP-056-80 ) affirm this. Conclusion 27 -- 28 -- . Applicant' s Pre-Hearing Brief 5 • #5 in. the Examiner ' s, report. of April .28, 1981 affirms the 2 area ( i .e. , IEarlington Park and Black River Office Park) 3 • as unique d e to adjacency,. to rail spurs and just north of 4 I-405 and the Valley Freeway (SR-167 ) . (Note: Official 5 Notice is requested of this Conclusion) . Further the 6 City' s own EIS affirms that this site is "unique" as one 7 of the two sites in the Valley equipped with reciprocal 8 switching frlom two railroad lines without penalty to the 9 shipper, in post cases. Page 69, Final . EIS. Rezoning of 10 this admitted infilling of a unique site is accordingly 11 appropriate .°IIregardless of any other undeveloped similarly 12 zoned land currently existing in Renton. 13 Staff finally suggests that this rezone does not 14 comply with !the intent of the Plan' s goals and policies. 15 This is' simple unsustainable as a matter of law. The City 16 Council is presumed mindful of all goals "and. policies . in 17 its Comprehensive Plan when it made the legislative 18 decision to establish land uses for specific . areas. Staff 19 is in effect subverting this legislative determination 20 with its own thoughts. Besides, as a general rule 21 specific controls over the general; and so the specific 22 land use designation controls and M-P zoning is 23 appropriate and presumptively in the public interest ., . 24 Let ' us not forget what is printed on the bottom 25 of the Comprehensive Plan map handed out by Staff. 26 1 "The Land Use Element of the Comprehensive , Plan is an' official' public document adopted 27 --, 28 Applicant ' s Pre-Hearing Brief 6 1 j by the City Council as a policy guide to decisions regarding the physical development 2 of the community.

And this body of restrictions 13 , upon property use shuld be sufficient as a matter of law. 14 Applicant ha's' gone further in volunteering to constrain 15 ' the eventual' property development by proposing 15 16 i conditions. , The first thirteen are contained in our 17 letter of May 25, the fourteenth in our letter of June 10 , 18 and the fifteenth is the Landscape Guidelines transmitted 19 ' to. the City on:June 10, 1982. In this writer' s experience 20 seldom has any applicant gone so far to assure voluntarely 21 that conditions on a rezone are developed to protect the 22 public and, the owner. 23 There. appears only to be three disputes . over 24. t ; conditions -' although the City has largely ignored any 25 , 26 comment on applicant ' s voluntary specification .of conditions. 27 28 Applicant 's Pre-Hearing Brief . . • 1 First: Staff seems unwilling to accept the P-1 2 channel area dedication even though it saves the City 3 substantial time and money. We are willing to make this 4 dedication provided that the area be used for the purpose ' 5 of dedication within a reasonable time period. 6 Second:. the Staff has demanded an added two 7 acres or so ,for ,preservation. Actually, th'e difference 8 may be slightly less; a) Applicant preserves 3 .91 plus 9 6 .61 acres or 10 .52 total; .b) City. demands 3.5 plus 8 . 5 or 10 12 acres. Mr. Richard Carothers made extensive site 11 evaluations In his capacity as a professional landscape 12 architect and. recommended 10.5 acres,, which applicant 13. reluctantly agreed to. Mr. Carothers will explain his 14 rationale considering the total site- and upon this basis 15 we believe that the Examiner will agree with Mr. Carothers. 16 Third: The Staff argues that we should maintain 17 the current one hundred year flood storage volume of, water 18 - and we agree, See, Condition 5, Haggard, Tousley & 19 Brain letter' of May 25, 1982. But the City asserts this 20 .. is a surface, elevation of 17 .1 feet msl - and we 21 disagree. The 100 year flood plain elevation is and has 22 been uniformly applied by the City as at an elevation of 23 15 feet msl in this area. To impose a higher elevation on 24 this one property is unconstitutionally discriminatory and 25 unsupported in: the :record. To require applicant to 26 provide additional storage beyond 15 feet msl also would 27 28 -- Applicant ' s Pre-Hearing Brief 8 I , 1 I constitute an unconstitutional taking since any added 2 storage is excessively conservative and can only be 3 related to upstream owners and the general public . Mr. 4 Jerry Rasmussen (Entranco) will provide testimony 5 supporting applicant ' s. position. And such testimony will 6 establish° that the ERC recommendation is improper. 7 Perhaps it is short sighted for this writer to 8 argue that there is a way out of this apparent problem 9 involving the storm water storage volume condition. For 10 Staff argues that this application should be dismissed 11 without prejudice and reheard when the FEMA study is done 12 (Q. This would require applicant to refile and pay another 13 application fee) . Staff admits (Para. L.10 ) that such a 14 study will b,e usable to more precisely determine the 15 site' s development potential. This admits that 1) the 16 study is not' needed until devlelopment of the site is 17 proposed (See Ullock v. Bremerton, supra) , and 2 ) the City 18 can evaluate' .development potential now without the study. 19 What we suggest to resolve the problem is a solution 20 inferred by this Examiner ' s Finding #18 in the Earlington 21 Park case (File PP-056-80) . That is, require the owner to 22 maintain the current one hundred year flood storage volume 23 of water, except as this is partially or totally provided 24 by use of the property for the P-1 channel.

We were at the site at noon and not at a time that is best to observe wildlife. Even so, we saw bittern, gadwall, mallard, coot, and red-winged blackbirds. Great blu heron, ruddy duck, cinnamon' teal, Canada goose, marsh wren, shrike, red-tailed hawk, violet-green swallow, tree swallow, meadowlark, and muskrat have also been reported at this marsh. The pond 'could support spiny-rayed fishes. Its vegetation consists of yellow iris, cattail, and rush. The wetland is a critical wildlife' habitat, and all wildlife dependent upon it will perish when the site is filled. This area and similar wetlands could be incorporated into an urban wilds system in the city that could take advantage of the values of these areas for the public' s benefit. We have enclosed some information on the values of wetlands. We would be happy to visit wetlands and other critical sites with members of your staff to provide early information. We did not receive you* declaration of non-significance when you issued it in 1979 even though the proposal includes loss of critical wildlife habitat. In 1980 we wrote you arid stated, "Many wetlands are being filled in the Renton area for 'Iindustrial expansion. Since marshes, bogs, and swamps are important wildlife resources, we are concerned when they are lost, especially without compensation, mitigation, and public review. . .Landfill or work in wetlands may require permit from U.

" • Mr. Gordon Erickson June 1, 1982 Page Two Since all land (except what has been filled and/or developed) to Springbrook Creek appears to be wetlands, the Corps of Engineers could require a 4041permit for fill in this area. 1 We request you sendlus your declarations of non-significance (plus environmental checklists) and your environmental impact statements on all projects that require SEPA compliance and are near or over water and wetlands. With Hydraulic Project Approval, we are an agency with jurisdiction and interest. We hope to work with you and your staff to ensure consideration of public resources in the city' s land use planning.

Mets 13016 S.E. 236th Place Kent, Washington 98031 RE: Renton ' s Declaration of Non- Significance for Austin Company Valley Office Park 2 , King County Ms. Mets, ' You requested our comments on the City of Renton' s declaration of non-significance for Valley Office Park 2 (the Austin Company' s application for filling and grading of approximately 300 , 000 cubic yards of material on a 29-acre site along East Valley Road) . The declaration of non-significance was issued by the City of Renton on April 12 , 1979. Unfortunately, we were not sent a copy of the declaration of non- significance in 1979 (even though we are an agency with jurisdiction/ expertise) . We appreciate you sending. a copy of the declaration and environmental checklist. After a site investigation, we have the following comments. With the exception of what appears to have been filled, almost all the land between Springbrook Creek and the property appears to be wetlands. On the property there is a one to two-acre pond surrounded by marsh. Vegetation in the marsh consists of yellow iris, cattail, and rush. Across the fill that serves as a road, there is another extensive marsh-swamp wetland with cattail being the predominant vegetation, but also finding pondweed, iris , rush willow, and snags. These habitats are critical for wildlife resources, especially waterfowl and furbearers. They not only provide nesting areas for waterfowl, but are located in a major flyway and serve as important resting and feeding areas for these migratory birds . While we did not sample the pond for fish, it is capable of supporting spiny-rayed fishes. We observed bittern, gadwall, mallard, coot, and redwing blackbird in a noontime visit. As you know, great blue heron, ruddy duck, cinnamon teal, Canadian goose, marsh wren, shrike, red-tailed hawk, violet-green swallow, tree swallow, meadowlark, and muskrat have been reported at this marsh. 3 • Debra E. Mets May 26, 1982 • Page Two When fish or wildlife habitat is lost, the wildlife dependent upon that habitat is lost; it perishes. All habitats will fill to their capacity. That is,, habitats will naturally hold all the wildlife possible. When wildlife is displaced or forced to a habitat that is already filled ,to capacity, starvation or disease will reduce the wildlife population to its original limits . When habitat is lost not only do displaced animals perish, but that number of animals is, in effect, eliminated each year because all production is eliminated. When a wetland is filled not only are public resources lost, but other human values of wetlands are also lost. For example, once filled the area will no longer provide flood and drainage protection nor will it have the recreational value that these urban wilds now have. Boeing workers and others use these areas for their aesthetic value, a respite from the urban environment, and an opportunity to observe wildlife. The environmental checklist appears to have some inaccuracies . If the pond is filled there would be a change in the amount of surface water. Fill in wetlands will increase storm water flows and eventual discharges to Springbrook Creek (checklist item (3) (d) ) . Wetlands clean storm water and surface water. When wetlands are removed, water quality in a drainage area can be reduced (checklist item (3) (e) ) . Fill placed in the wetlands will serve as a barrier to the establish- ment of wetland vegetation (checklist item (4) (c) ) . As we mentioned before, the proposal would reduce the diversity and numbers of wildlife in the area. The area supports a more diverse fish and wildlife habitat than the rabbits and field mice mentioned (checklist item (5) (a) ) . Fill in these wetlands would produce a loss of critical and significant wildlife habitat (checklist item (5) (d) ) . For the above reasons we would not concur with the "no" answers for items (3) (d) , (3) (e) , (4) (c) , (5) (a) , and the "maybe" answer to (5) (d) . Thank you for your concern for the public' s fish and wildlife resources . We hope you find these comments helpful.

Wetlands include marshes, bogs, swamp, intertidal areas, sloughs, potholes, wet meadows, wet forest, river overflows and natural ponds. Riparian areas are those areas adjacent to a stream, wetland or lake, that directly or indirectly affect the natural character of that water. Examples of riparian areas include stream corridors, flood plains , and buffer strips. Wetlands and riparian zones have substantially higher fish and wildlife use than other terrestrial habitats. These areas are in relatively short supply and a large percentage of species found in these areas are highly vulnerable to habitat modifications. When wetlands and riparian areas are altered, im- pacts on fish and wildlife can be severe. The relationships that exist be- tween the water, intermediate, and upland environments are intertwined into a natural system that can be severely upset when a component is removed. Ecosystems can be viewed as a flow of energy from producers to consumers. As much as 90 percent of the energy processed into a stream comes from stream- side vegetation. This energy is transferred to aquatic insects such as caddis- fly and onto trout and salmon. Streamside vegetation keeps stream temperatures cool by shading and plant litter, adds to the humus content of the soil and reduces erosion that comes from stormwater and raindrops. Vegetation filters stormwater runoff and maintains water quantity. Wetlands adjacent to streams serve as sponges. They store water in winter and help control flooding. In summer, these wetlands dry out and release their water to the stream and help maintain quantity of water in low flow periods. What happens in the watershed's uplands has a direct effect on fish and other aquatic organisms. • Page 2 WETLANDS AND STREAM CORRIDORS CRITICAL AREAS WORTH PRESERVING Because of the inter-relationship that exists between aquatic and terrestrial systems, it is in general , wise to follow the advice of Aldo Leopold who said in 1941 , "A prudent technology should alter the natural order as little as possible. " e i Values • Wetlands and riparian areas have value beyond fish and wildlife. They include 1 natural valley storage, 1tertiary water treatment, sediment basins, recreation areas, educational and scientific opportunities and aesthetics. Replacement costs for these "free work" functions are usually quite high; stream rehabilita- tion, dams,: hatcheries, treatment plants, and levees. The Environmental Impact Statement on King County's General Development Guide states, "In addition to their biologic functions, wetlands perform a valuable hydrologic function by providing storage and partial retention of storm water. For example, a 6 inch rise in water level over a 10 acre marsh will provide a temporary storage and sedi- ment trap for 1 . 5 million gallons of storm water. " • Stream corridors in urban areas are frequently used for picnics and areas where urban workers eat lunch and get away from the "concrete jungle". In residential areas, streams provide local residents with a natural area close to home. People pursuing recreation in these wildlife areas (bird watching, photography, hunting, fishing) contribute to local economies as they pay for food and lodg- ing, buy film and supplies. In some areas these recreationists are the mainstay of the local economies. Because of these values, a recent study shows a greater economic value can be realized from retaining a 100 foot buffer strip along streams in a, logging operation than could be realized from harvesting and sell- ing that timber. Page 3 WETLANDS AND STREAM CORRIDORS CRITICAL AREAS WORTH PRESERVING Planning for Fish and Wildlife in Land Use Decisions • Since natural resourceshave not figured into land use planning, significant losses have occurred to fish and wildlife resources as open space land is con- verted to other uses. EPA performed a study on stream invertebrates in the Renton area. They found an inverse relationship between percent of urbaniza- tion in a subdrainage basin and percent of important fish food organisms. They conclude, the greater the increase in urban acres, the fewer fish in a stream. Studies have shown that when habitat is altered, significant reductions of wildlife species usually occurs. The impacts of land use changes need not be as severe as they are. A California study showed that when 100 foot buffers were left along streams in an area that was logged, no impact of sedimentation was measured in the stream. However, when less than 100 feet was left, stream sedimentation was large enough to cause a change in the aquatic insect communities that create the components of fish diets. This would indicate that the minimum riparian vegetation necessary to filter silt from stormwater is 100 feet. In. the eastern United States , regional extinctions of wildlife are occurring because large patches of forest are decreasing in size and because these frag- mented forests are beooming isolated from larger forests which act as reservoirs for wildlife populations. Large patches of forest open space can be connected by corridors or bands of woodland along streams. If trees are maintained along streams, urbanized areas can benefit from the more extensive forests to which they are connected. Size of Corridors Whenever possible, the Department of Game recommends that buffer strips extend 4 for 200 feet from the water or wetland's edge. A minimum of 100 .feet should be the rule. Narrower buffers can be tolerated in some cases, but often a wider buffer must be used to protect water quality and habitat values. • Page 4 WETLANDS AND STREAM CORRIDORS CRITICAL AREAS WORTH PRESERVING Land Use Planner, Ian L. McHarg recommends in his book, Design with Nature (1969) -. "Surface water courses should be retained in their natural condition. to a width of not less! than 200 feet on each side of the stream. In general , they should not be Cultivated. " (page 86) The. California Coastal Commission Statewide Interpretive Guidelines , 1981 , discusses criteria for buffers. "The buffer area should be a minimum of 100 feet for small projects on existing lots (such as one single family home or one commercial office building) unless the applicant can demonstrate that 100 feet is unnecessary to protect the resources of the habitat area. If the project involves substantial improvements or increased human impacts, such as a subdivision, a much wider buffer area should be required. " "For wetland, the buffer area should be measured from the landward edge of the wetland. For a ,stream or river, the buffer area should be measured landward from the landward edge of riparian vegetation or from the top edge of the bank (e. g. , in channelized stream) . " • Why Should Buffers'Be Required Buffers along sensitive areas help preserve public resources such as water quality, -fish, wildlife, recreation, and aesthetics. However, there are reasons other than high quality of life, healthy environment and public good for pre- serving these areas. These areas provide economic return from wildlife as well as sports, commercial and Indian fisheries. The Orrick decision on Treaty Indian Fishing Rights stated that as a result of the treaty, tribes are guaranteed the right to have fish habitat protected from manmade destruction. Indian fishing rights and protection of their fishery habitat takes priority over other econo- mic benefits. • Page 5 WETLANDS AND STREAM CORRIDORS CRITICAL AREAS WORTH PRESERVING By preserving these arelas we have passive recreation sites and preserve some of our quality ;of life so that it might be passed onto our children and their children. . AsIconservative U.S. Senator James Buckley stated: "When all the facts arel placed in their proper perspective, when we truly come to understand the full consequences of abusing the natural systems on which life depends, then it will be generally accepted that man cannot conduct his economic activities, in an ecological void except at tremendous ultimate cost. If we care aboutithe economic well being of the next generation then we must care more than we have in the past about the quality of the physical and biological world' they will inherit.

Studies have shown 60-90 percent removal of suspended sediments in waters that flow through wetlands. Flow rates are decreased and vegetation promotes fallout of suspended particles. Removal of organic sediments reduces turbi- dity and biological oxygen demand, thereby improving water quality. Saltwater in estuaries further enhances sediment removal by flocculation of clay parti- • cl•es. This sediment-settling function helps reduce siltation problems in re- servoirs, rivers and harbors. In a number of studies, filtration of wastewater or polluted discharges through wetlands has resulted in significantly reduced biological oxygen demand (BOD) , from as much as 49. 3 to 5.3 milliliters per liter. • A study of Mountain Creek in Georgia revealed that the waterway was polluted with human sewage and chicken offal . After traveling 2.75 miles through the Alcovy River Swamp, the water was designated as clean by the Water Quality Control Board. After seven miles, the water was termed excellent. In 1970, the value of the 2,300 acre Alcovy River Swamp for water pollution control was estimated at $1 million per year. A study of Wisconsin watersheds concluded that flood flows are 80 percent lower and sediment yields are 90 percent lower in basins consisting of 40 percent • lake and wetland areas than in basins with no lakes or wetlands. • • • .. 3 Page 2 ' STUDIES ACROSS THE NATION DEMONSTRATE WETLAND USED WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY A highly publicized report of wetlands storage in northern Minnesota and North Dakota in the Red River, basin showed that wetlands significantly reduce flood , levels in major metropolitan areas downstream. The study analyzed the value of protected wetlands in the Thief Lake Wildlife Management Area and the Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge, and demonstrated that during the flood of 1979 , these wetlands reduced flood peaks in Crookston, Minnesota, and Grand Forks, North Dakota, by 1 .5 and 0.5 feet, respectively. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers determined, in 1971 , that the protection afforded by 8,422 acres of wetlands in the Charles River basin in Massachusetts prevented flood damages of about $3.2 million annually. Each acre of wetland maintained was estimated worth $2,002 per year for flood damage prevention and reduction alone. Groundwater recharge The Cedarburg Bog in southeastern Wisconsin is of great importance in supplying water to a growing suburban area outside Milwaukee. The 5 square mile wetland controls groundwater supply for an approximately 165 square mile area. Increas- ing runoff associated with urbanization will affect the quality of the region's groundwater. In addition., new development within or adjacent to the bog, which causes increased withdrawal of groundwater but decreases the area available for recharge, eventually will result in a decline of groundwater and surface levels affecting the entire 165- square mile region. Many groundwater aquifers in Massachusetts are fed by wetland recharge. In attempting to quantify the value of Massachusetts' wetlands for water supply, it has been estimated that the water supply function of wetlands is equal to the difference between the cost of wetland-fed wells and the cost of providing water from the next best source. In Massachusetts ' Charles River Basin, the alternative to using well water is purchasing water from the Metropolitan Dis- trict Commission, a regional agency that maintains reservoirs and sells the water to municipalities. Comparing estimates of obtaining well water that could be Page 3 STUDIES ACROSS THE NATION DEMONSTRATE WETLAND USED WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY supplied by one acre ofi wetland recharge and the cost of water from the Metropolitan District Commission, -the resulting savings from well water use is about $16.50 per day, or $6,044 per year. The 1981 value of one acre of wetland forrgrdundwater recharge was $100,730. Fish. and Wildlife Wetlands are important 'habitats for many of the nation's fish and wildlife. For these many specifies; wetlands serve as critical habitat in at least one season of the year Or during the animals' life cycle. In essence, wetlands provide and sustain wildlife populations and their attendant economic and recreational benefits to both consumptive and nonconsumptive users. Of 276 threatened wild endangered species listed in 1980, 80 species were highly dependent on wetlands for survival . In Colorado, 90 percent of the State's 800 species of fish and wildlife depend on riparian habitat: In Arizona and New Mexico, 40 percent of these States' wildlife depend on these habitats. Over an annual cycle, waterfowl -- particularly migratory populations -- utilize a diverse and widely distributed series of wetlands. At any phase in the annual cycle, and especially 'during the reproductive season, waterfowl may require a diverse group of closely associated wetlands. In 1975, 8.3 million Americans hunted migratory waterfowl , and spent $949 million for this wetland-dependent activity. Of .2,100 native fish species in the United States , 400 are important to commer- cial and sport fisheries ; most of the other 1 ,700 are associated with harvest species as either prey, predators or competitors. Nearly all species depend on the estuarine zone for survival . Page 4 STUDIES ACROSS THE NATION DEMONSTRATE WETLAND USED WATER QUANTITY AND QUALITY Nationwide, in 1979, the commercial marine fishing harvest (including foreign catches) was 9.9 Million pounds of seafood, with a total retail value of $7.8 billion -- a major part of this catch was dependent on estuaries for at least part of their life cycle. Pp In Alaska, 25 percent of the 1978 work force was employed in the salmon fishing industry. Sport fishing for salmon also contributes millions of dollars to the local economy. Salmon require pristine streams and wetlands for spawning and survival of young. In 1975, 53. 9 million Americans ,participated in more than 2.3 billion days of fishing, or an average of 24.5 days per angler. They spent $15.2 billion for fishing activities for an average expenditure of $282 per angler ($11 .50 per fishing-day) . Wetlands also support a wide variety of other recreational activities, including bird watching, photography and nature study. Wetland Losses Unfortunately, many wetlands are subject to Intense pressure from natural and man-made losses. It has been estimated that 30-40 percent of the nation 's Wetlands have been lost. In 1954, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) estimated that 74.4 million acres of wetlands in the contiguous 48 United States remained from an original wetland acreage (estimated by the Soil Conser- vation Service) of 127 million acres. Precise figures on the present extent of the nation's wetlands are not available because no thorough national inventory has evern been conducted. Nevertheless, best estimates indicate that 300,000-400,000 acres (470-625 square miles) in the United States are lost each year. California has less than 0.45 million acres (13 percent) of its original 3. 5 million acres of wetlands left. By the year 2000, Connecticut will have only 14 percent of its marshes present in 1914. 1111..11...“111 .. ... . . , . . , • .

Renton, WA 98005 MAY 1 U 1982 Attn: Dave Clemens , Planning Director POLICY ()fvFL.OPMFNT f'I FT SUBJECT: Black River Office Park Although we did not take the opportunity to comment on the draft environmental impact statement for this project, we now have concerns that development ap- proval of this project in the absence of eastside drainage improvements is pre- lude to disaster. The disposition of floodwaters and the project's anticipated impact on drainage basin storage capacity could result in major adverse im- pacts. The"unavoidable adverse impact" section on Page 57 of the DEIS under the topic heading "Floods" indicates that the project will contribute to flood conditions until construction of the P-1 Channel is completed. Yet, on Page 88, the following statement appears in context of discussing the Eastside Wa- tershed Project: "Planning for the Eastside Watershed Project has been under consideration more than 15 years . Due to this lengthy time frame, the possiblity that the drainage project may not be completed should be examined. In the absence of an S.C.S . channel system, stormwater drainage from the project site and from other urban developments within the Black River drainage sub-basin would severely impact the existing drainage system. " The report than goes on to state: "Local jurisdictions would have to seek alternative means of handling stormwater runoff. Conceivably, Springbrook Creek would need to be improved and stormwater storage facilities would have to be provided at various loca- tions in the valley. " In this era of restricted local government budgets and diminished expectations of Federal assitance. the "alternative means" of dealing with excessive run-off in downstream communities such as Tukwila, Duwamish and Allentown are relatively few. Page Two Dave Clemens 4 May 1982 Hopefully, development approval of this proposed action will not precede a determination of the Eastside'Drainage Basin improvement requirements.

As one property owner involved , we have reviewed this matter. As you are aware, we have a pending re-zone application before the City of Renton. The final EIS is expected to be published soon, and hearings are anticipated in the near future. We are willing to execute a deed in form substantially similar to Exhibit "A" attached hereto, by which approximately seven (7) acres of our property would be donated to the City of Renton. This offer assumes that the P-1 Channel and Pond Development will be completed within the next twelve (12) months. This offer further assumes that the donated property would be credited by the City of Renton against any open space requirement associated with the development of our property when re-zoned as requested. This offer also assumes that the requested re-zone will be granted subject to the conditions that are , in our opinion, reasonable. r ., ~ r So long as the above assumptions are realized , the deed will be delivered to the City of Renton at no cost to the city. In so doing, however , we further assume that the fair market value of the seven ( 7) acres will be credited against any assessments or charges levied against our property in connection with the P-1 Channel project. ry truly y ur DELTON J.

Houghton, Acting Public Works Director --�� SUBJECT : Black River Office Park Please be advised that David Markley of The Transpo Group, Bob Thorpe of R. W. Thorpe & Associates, Gary Norris and myself met to discuss the EIS for the subject proposal . From that meeting, we determined that the best approach would be a document which addressed the overall traffic impacts of the range of possible developments on that parcel of land. From such an analysis, we believe that we can develop a "feel" for the appropriate scale for the proposed development. When a definite proposal is secured for that parcel of land, the developer will be required to do an in-depth traffic operational study to define problem areas and offer measures of mitigation. This analysis will involve all critical intersections within an area defined by FAI 405 on the south, Sunset Highway on the north, Rainier Ave. on the east and West Valley Highway on the west. The above should be placed as a condition for all permit processes regarding this parcel of property. If you have any questions, please contact Gary Norris. Thank you.

At one-half mile distance, the range is 55 to 76 dBA. gi ll Trains are required by law to sound their whistles when crossing a ob iright-of-way or when an object is blocking the track. Train whistles can increase noise levels. by approximately 15 dBA for very short M. periods of time, but there are no grade crossings in the vicinity and whistle noises rarely occur within a mile of the site. y Planned land use to the south of the site is industrial park, a potential generator of noise from increased traffic and industrial activities. Planned land use to the east of the site is a Planned / Unit Development which would contain multiple-family housing and business/commercial development. This residential use is considered }' noise sensitive. d " In summary, slightly adverse noise levels exist on much of the site due to nearbyvehicular v hicular traffic. Aircraft noise is audible but within ithe acceptable range, and the adjacent rail activity produces intermittent adverse noise levels for short time periods. Impacts (S hort-term) is (Short term) IDuring the construction period, noise levels will increase substantially as outlined in Tables 7 and 8, pp.70-71 .

Natural Resources Existing Conditions The vegetation on the site and its open space characteristic are both natural resources. 11 \\ Impacts The proposed development will alter the majority of the existing open space and cause the removal of most of the existing vegetation on the site. il 11 Construction of the buildings and roads will consume natural resources, including energy and raw materials used in concrete, steel , 11 aluminum, glass, copper and other materials of varying scarcity. 11 Building operation will require cosumption of energy in the form of electricity and natural gas. Gasoline and diesel fuels will be expended by employee and service vehicles of the industrial park. 11 Mitigating Measures PI Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever 11 possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. • Unavoidable Adverse Impacts a) Consumption of building materials and energy. b) Conversion-of natural open space to warehousing and office use with removal of vegetation. 11 • least 5% or employees would occupy the s. t.c at any given time of the day or night. It is reasonable to assume that most of the permanent employees would reside within a 20 to 30 minute commute of the site, but it is difficult to specify precisely where the new residents would locate. iti atin M g g Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. • 3. Transportation/Circulation Vehicular Transportation Generated (Refer to Figures 2 and 3, pp. xi_i and xiii) A preliminary analysis of traffic impacts and mitigations associated with the proposed action was conducted by the TRANSPO Group which forms the basis for this discussion below. The consultant's letter has been included in Appendix D beginning on page D-7. Impacts The project is proposed to be constructed in two phases. Access to Phase I will be provided by a single road that connects to the pro- posed road system which serves the Earlington Park Development. Phase 2, on the western portion of the site, will connect with the Phase 1 road system and will build a secondary access to Monster Road across 0.4:\vsr the proposed P 1 Channel. •, Trip generation estimates were made using a range of assumptions re- . S +;i4 garding building design and function (e.g. , one-story or two-story of- Sy,.�ctti� fice buildings; office park or general office development, etc.) . The '3\1\P- a.. Vnstitute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 1979 and v,� a. 1 •QiiN"` 04 Arizona DOT Trip Generation Intensity Factors Manual, 1980, were the 06 44' 41 sources of trip generation rate information.

H *V" hW South and contiguous to the site is the 18-hole Earlington Golf Course. However, this golf course has been proposed to be replaced by the Earlington Manufacturing Park. The, site is presently very heavily vegetated, which precludes any opportunity for traditional forms of active recreation and discourages most attempts of passive recreation, such as nature walks and bird- watching. Impacts Development of the site will preclude any future development or designation for park use. In conformance with the Green River Basin program and to be compatible with Earlington Park's trail system, the project would continue the lineal park along Springbrook Creek. Passive greenbelts will also be included as indicated in the conceptual site plans. (Figure jig, on page xiii.) Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. • E. Maintenance Existing Conditions - Roads, water, sanitary sewers and- storm- drainage systems in the vicinity of the project area are presently maintained by the City of Renton.

Because of constraints in operating Howard Hanson Dam on the Green River, continuous pumping capability is limited and storage must be provided within the East Side Project system. Most Of this t. stormwater storage will • be incorporated in two detention basins, one il ' of which will be located behind the P-1 pump plant adjacent to the •^ a. subject site. Springbrook Creel runs adjacent to the site. At the present time, Springbrook Creek does not have sufficient capacity to pass flood flows from upstream to the P-1 pump plant. The East Side Watershed Project proposes to replace Springbrook Creek with a wider - 180 to 220 feet - man-made channel . This channel would abut the subject site to the southwest. Because -, • r the subject site is situated close to the existing P-1 pump plant and is adjacent to Springbrook Creek, stormwater drainage plans for the ;.4 development will be designed to deliver runoff to the creek and the pump plant as quickly as possible. No permanent on-site retention is 1. Y is anticipated. However, the proposed development would be expected to participate fully in the East Side Project or in other drainage . improvements in the area. Another element of the S.C.S. East Side Project affecting the proposal is a )9®acre detention basin immediately upstream of the pump plant N : and adjacent to Springbrook Creek. This basin, together with another yy�� detention basin further upstream, t'rge been designed to provide flood storage during periods of restricted pumping and to provide a large drawdown pool for the pump plant. . .

Stormwater Existing Conditions Presently there is no closed stormwater drainage system on the site. All water either percolates back into the ground, ponds, or flows off the site in the form of runoff. Nearly all soils- on the site are moist to wet throughout the year, with large areas of seasonal ponding. An 18-inch line runs along Powell Avenue S.W. and empties into a 36-inch line along S.W. 10th Street. This line empties into Springbrook Creek south of the site. A 60-inch line along S.W. 7th Street, which serves properties to the east, discharges into the old/ I' Black River Channel . ��,,,�" v IAA° ` w° Eoly k "A 1.,)r ods 5a k 8 ,. tee, glee of -foreas So L1/41-11pro r47 Runoff from the hillside north of the site is partially diked from theput,141, site by the railroad. pvt044At 1A'' e Impacts • The total volume of runoff from the site will increase due to greater impervious surface. The drainage system for the site will be designed for no detention capacity and will be able to carry off a 25 year frequency storm. It is planned that surface water runoff would be directed to the existing Black River Channel to receive treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. Mitigating Measures Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts _ Increased stormwater runoff-volume as a-result-of -project development. — D. Solid Waste Existing Conditions The businesses and residences in the surrounding vicinity are currently served by General Disposal Company. Dumpsters will be required and can be rented from General Disposal , available in 1 to 40 94 Although noise levels during construction may exceed comfortable levels for area residents, during occupancy, average noise levels are expected to remain below the Washington State Department of Energy Noise Limitations. (See Table 4, p. 67 .) Mitigating Measures See Noise - Mitigating Measures", p. 71-72. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increase in potential of aggravation of mental health of nearby residents due to an increase in noise levels. 9. Aesthetics Existing Conditions The site, located at the southern base of Earlington Hill , is presently undeveloped and heavily vegetated with riparian forest. It serves as a visual extension of the open space provided by the Earlington Golf Course to the south. The site is most clearly visible from the Empire Estates residential complex situated atop Earlington Hill to the north of the site. At this time, southerly views from the higher units afford a vista consisting of mixed deciduous and conifer hillside in the foreground, Earlington Golf Course, Longacres and industrial warehousing in the middle distance, and Mount Rainier and the Cascade foothills in the far distance. exing The dvc hillside i., t- e southeast of Empire Estates is slated to be replaced by the Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development. - Impacts Development of the site will convert a dense riparian forest into an office park characterized by warehouses and office buildings with preserved wetland areas incorporated into the design. The development will be --visible to occupants of Empire Estates, Earlington Golf Course (proposed to be developed as a manufacturing park) , Earlington Woods P.U.D. and motorists on Monster Road. • 96 Y The Institute for Environmental Studies' Office of Public Archaeology at the University of Washington has conducted a preliminary assessment of the potential archaeological significance of the subject site. A letter indicating its findings and recommendations has been included 1 in Appendix D, p. D-2 of this document. It is suggested that a subsurface coring program be implemented at intervals of 25 meters in Il • those areas that are- judged to have high archaeological potential and at 50 meter intervals in other disturbed areas. Thus, coring would . 11 not be conducted along the old Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad grade bisecting the site from east to west, the present railroad tracks at the northern boundary of the property and in the channel of the old Black River. _ i/K caexS tkPejoemeA2010 !

Economics Existing Conditions The site of the proposed • action is located within the Seattle metropolitan area which is currently experiencing ubstantial -economic -- growth. The lower Green-Duwamish River Valley is evolving as an industrial-distribution center and has long served as a transportation ux center.. • A representative of Coldwell Banker, Cozmmercial Real Estate Services 11 has provided an informational letter which has been incliidPd as page D-6 of Appendix D. -- 1. It states that presently there exist 32-million square feet (s.f.) of - 97 — -;1 industrial space in Renton-Tukwila-Kent area.- Of this space, approx- I imately 1 million s.f. is vacant, which represents a vacancy factor of 37o. (About 485,000 s.f. of this total vacant space was constructed during 1980.) At the present rate of absorption of 200,000 s.f. per month, the existing inventory of vacant industrial space would be oc- cupied in five months. . i 4\--. / It is acknowledged that industrial real estate conditions may alter con- siderably prior to the time the Black River Office Park is scheduled for 1 completion. However, the proposed site would be attractive to tenants needing rail access because it is one of two sites in the Valley equip- // / ped with reciprocal switching from both Burlington-Northern and Union t Pacific without penalty to the shipper, except on very short, local i hauls. i 1' Impacts 1 The project would create short-term construction employment. The development would also partially ease the demand for industrial 1 I 1 buildings space. The City of Renton will receive an increase in tax revenues and municipal costs generated from the project. • \ Mitigating Measures None, • Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Unknown. p ,1 if_, cui ofk4344,„,e4)44.„, i'LL iti 4.!.',112.4. 4 L•41,' 144.,,t a , ,411 \\\\ -;tr.-- '23 v7v _ -2-fek;)----13faci,e.. fe:-.4.v.e.A.

Unique Physical Features - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that the large groups- of trees sW and understory remain undisturbed. • 9Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to '' collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the tops of the v . bank of the Black River Channel . - Fill material will be required to bring some building site's above the 100 year flood plain. - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amount of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. Air Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. 1 - Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, cleaning and rF_ - 107 - Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. Land Use - An alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space.

No Development Description This alternative would leave the site in its undeveloped state on a permanent basis or on a temporary basis until some other proposal for development is approved by the City. Impacts All adverse environmental impacts of the project would be eliminated. The positive economic benefits of the project are increased property taxes, creation of short and long-term employment and partial alleviation in vacant industrial land demand. Municipal services ed9 capital costs would not be incurred. The most significant impact •of this alternative would be preservation of the riparian forest. This ,would extend the opportunity for the City to purchase the site and preserve it as a green belt. However, no development would shift the impacts of development to other sites which could be more or less suited for these uses. • However, pressure to develop would continue due to Manufacturing Park designation on the Comprehensive Plan, development of the surrounding properties and, increasing demand for industrial land development. Feasibility The "no development" alternative would not meet the objectives of the proponents. The feasibility of the City acquiring the site for the purpose of preservation is unknown, but the market value of property is - - -high and the City' s Comprehensive Plan designates the site for manufacturing park use. 110 t of 7g% ® Development • Description • Alternative 1 - Development of 75% of the site with 25% in concentrated open space. fier.QS Site Coverage Mk'-' L1j.Q.

Impacts dayAr,, This alternative would leave approximately 25% of the site in open space. 00 The impacts of this development would be proportionately greater than the , \ 0 00 proposed although this difference is not quantifiable. However, impacts of this alternative would be greater in the following elements: soils, '`''; , 12V74: topography, erosion, air quality, runoff, flora, fauna, noise, light and b '� � glare, natural resources, employment, transportation/circulation, public z` `; ' services, energy, utilities, aesthetics, and economic factors. When definite site plans become available for review, specific differences in /°' impacts can be assessed. Feasibility Economically, this .alternative is desirable to the proponent. However, the increased impacts caused by an increase in density would reduce. feasibility in regard to service from city and public utilities, as well as diminishing the acceptability of project development with respect to ' the physical environment (soil , topography, runoff.-patterns , flora fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources.) . .. 111 Concentrated Development Description Development of 50% T acres) of the site with 35+ acres remaining in open space. • Site Coverage Percentage Use Acreage (of 33 acres) Warehouse 5.86 16% Office 16.62 50% Roads .33 1% Open Space 11.0 33% (About 4.5 acres of the to-be-developed half of the site is presently cleared. 28.5 acres of this one-half is comprised. of riparian forest. 38% (or 11 acres) of this riparian forest would be retained on the developed half of the site and 72% of the riparian forest would be retained over the entire site.) Impacts dverall , this alternative would place decreased demand on the physical environment. Specifically, no development would take place in the eastern portion of the site. This area would be preserved as open space which would eliminate the impacts on soils, topography, runoff patterns, 4(19;)1\(11flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources for tthat area. Impacts to the physical environment in the developed areas It hat P Y P bpra(31./ tit would be comparable to those of the proposed project. % Impacts to the human environment (public services, utilities, energy and archaeological resources) would be nearly the same as under the proposed project. However, elements such as transportation/circulation, air quality, noise and employment impacts would be diminished. Feasibility This alternative would reduce the amount of leasable building space by an undetermined amount. Further, there is a high demand for rail-served warehousing which may not be fully utilized if the project were to exclude this use. For those reasons, the proponent considers this ' . alternative economically infeasible. I ' llla lif eI pane-.

Hansen. They own approximately 71 acres of real property adjacent to the Earlington Golf Course in Renton. My clients purchased 46 acres of this property in 1979, and an additional 25 acres in 1980. The reason my clients purchased the property was that in 1976 the City of Renton passed a comprehensive plan which designated this property for use as a manufacturing park. During the last two and one-half years , my clients have been continually dealing with the City of Renton regarding the development of the property and seeking zoning classification for a manufacturing park. For example: 1. In September of 1979, Mr. Hansen filed his original application with the City of Renton for classification as a manufacturing park with respect to the original 46 acres; 2. In January of 1980, Mr. Hansen submitted the preliminary environmental impact statement with respect to the same; 3. In October of 1980, my clients requested and secured the City' s permission for R. W. Thorpe & Associates to • * Licensed to practice in Washington and Hawaii • Hawaii Bar No.2379 111 Mr. David Clemens -2- March 16, 1981 prepare the environmental impact statement with respect to the development of the entire tract as a manufacturing park; 4. On October 24, 1980, my clients deposited $7,500 to the City as partial payment for the preliminary environmental impact statement; 5. On November 7 , 1980, my clients filed the preliminary environmental impact statement with the City of Renton. Throughout that period of time, my clients have dealt in good faith with the City of Renton, and have always believed that the City has dealt in good faith with them. My clients have spent in excess of $20,000 to survey the property. Furthermore: 1. They have arranged the location of utility service to the property and prepared preliminary designs for road access and a storm sewer system. 2. They have been involved in lengthy and extensive negotiations with King County and Metro regarding the location of the pump station adjacent to the property, and the creation of a rentention pond adjacent thereto. 3. They have negotiated with Milwaukee Railroad regarding road access to the site, and Burlington Northern with respect to railroad trackage. 4. They have negotiated with the City through First City Equities Corp. for the provision of sewer, water, and power to the site. 5. They have negotiated with the City through CHG International Corporation to resolve drainage problems on the site. 6. They have spent many hours with the Hydraulics Department of the City with respect to the site. Mr. David Clemens -3- March 16, 1981 7. They have spent almost $25,000 for the preparation of an environmental impact statement, which is virtually completed and is enclosed with this letter. This letter and the environmental impact statement constitute filing of said statement with the City of Renton. 8. My clients have dealt not only with the above agencies, but also the University of Washington, the Washington State Department of Ecology, and the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, regarding not only the above problems but also the aspects of land use. During this process of negotiations , my clients have been willing to make several concessions in order to obtain zoning classification consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. For example, they have discussed with the City the possibility of providing a green belt along the old Black River and Spring Brook. They have also agreed to permit seven acres to be used by King County for a retention pond, that would serve the entire Kent Valley. They have also arranged to install roads, utilities , and rail access to the site, which would benefit the entire community. Obviously, my clients have gone through this entire process on the assumption that the City of Renton would fairly and openly consider their request for a zoning classification that would merely comply with the City of Renton' s own Comprehensive Plan. Throughout the entire thirty-month process , my clients have been led to believe by a number of various city officials that such a full and fair consideration of the application would be made. All of a sudden, without any notice or warning to my clients, on March 3, 1981, the City of Renton published a • Mr. David Clemens -4- March 16, 1981 document entitled "City of Renton Wetlands Study. " The report indicated that it was financed by an 1978 federal grant. Among other things, the study designates the area owned by my clients as a proposed "Black River Riparian Forest. " This recommendation is, made despite acknowledging the fact that as recently as 1976 the City of Renton adopted a Comprehensive Plan designating the same area for use as a manufacturing park. The report furthermore acknowledges that only a portion of the "Forest" qualifies as "wetlands" under the Washington State Shorelines Managment Act. This Study furthermore recommends that the City of Renton "should investigate the purchase of the entire 65 to 70 acre habitat for a wildlife/recreation area. . . . " This recommendation is made despite the fact that the study was commissioned three years ago, my clients have been involved in the purchase and attempted development of the property for at least the last two years , and have never been informed as to the possibility of this recommendation being made. In fact, the field notes attached as Appendix 1 to the Study are all dated November 7, 1980, more than two years after the report was commissioned. My clients are obviously surprised and somewhat amazed at the publication of this new study, because of the facts cited above. They are also obviously unwilling to permit their property - which the City of Renton currently has designated for use as a manufacturing park - to be preserved in its natural environment. Because of the enormous investment already made by my clients in the property based upon representations made by the City through its Comprehensive Plan and through contacts with City officials, my clients cannot afford to delay their efforts in obtaining the zoning reclassification. However, my clients do want to give the City of Renton an opportunity to express its intent to purchase the property herein involved, at its fair market value, before they invest additional time and money in seeking to obtain the zoning classification for the use of the property as a manufacturing park. The fair market value of the real property owned by my clients, for the use designated in the City of Renton • 411 Mr. David Clemens -5- March 16, 1981 Comprehensive Plan is $2. 25 per square foot. There are three million square feet involved: the fair market value of the real property therefore is a total of $6. 75 million. We thereby give the City of Renton an opportunity to declare its intent to purchase the real property owned by my clients for $6.75 million by March 24, 1981. At this point, my clients are obviously not insisting upon receiving the funds from the City. However, this timetable provides the City with sufficient time to determine whether or not it seriously intends to purchase my clients ' real property at its fair market value. I would appreciate receiving a written response to this letter, expressing the City 's intent with respect to the above by March 24, 1981. I would also be willing to discuss the matter further with the City of Renton in the interim. Should we not receive notification from the City that it does intend to purchase the property for the price mentioned above, we request the City to immediately complete its review of our application for designation of the property as a manufacturing park, and pass an ordinance so authorizing its use consistent with the City of Renton Comprehensive Plan.

CONFIDENTIAL M March 27 , 1981 ME u' AN ;Up TO: Richard btredicke City Council President FROM: David R. Clemens Acting Planning Director RE: BLACK .RIVER RIPARIAN FOREST The following is a brief response to the letter from the offices of Neubauer and Mussehl regarding the application and property contained within the Black River Riparian Forest. Mr. Hunsinger correctly states in his letter that Mr. John R. Hansen did submit a rezone application in September of 1979. Comment #2 regarding the submission of an environmental impact statement in January of 1980 is incorrect. What was submitted was an expanded environmental checklist, which dealt with a number of issues which were inadequately presented in the original rezone application submission. Mr. Ericksen' s memorandum of August 7 , 1980, (copy attached) describes the meetings and correspondence which occurred between January and July of 1980. Between April. and October of 1980, this office met with and discussed with the applicant the process for obtaining consul- tants for preparing the environmental impact statement, and on October 15 , 1980, this department did approve R. W. Thorpe Associates to prepare the environmental impact statement and set the cost of the preparation of that draft at $7500. 00 L A per the scope of work presented by Thorpe and Associates. 6/ �/ ?46�D�7/� On November 19th, the City received a preliminary draft of the EIS and comments on that preliminary draft were returned to the consultant on December 30th. On January 22nd, a meeting was held between this department and the consultant to discuss the issues surrounding the comments transmitted on December 30. Finally, on March 16th, Mr. Hunsinger' s letter transmitted "proof" drafts of the impact statement for our final review. That review process should be completed by early next week. Richard Stredicke March 27, 1981 Page Two On page three, item #7, Mr. Hunsinger states that $25,000 was expended in the preparation of the environmental impact statement. This cost apparently includes expenditures for purposes other than the EIS in that the fee established for preparation of the draft is $7500, which is being maintained in an escrow account by the City. Other costs such as engi- neering and design consulting time may have contributed to the $25,000 figure listed in item #7. This department has maintained from the commencement of this project, and has included in numerous pieces of our corres- pondence, that this proposal to rezone the Black River Forest for industrial park uses may not be feasible due to environmental considerations. The Wetland Study alluded to in Mr. Hunsinger ' s letter was simply the culmination of an effort to establish the relative quality of wetland areas within the City. Although this report was unavailable to the EIS consultant, when this department met with his staff on January 22, 1981 , we did discuss a number of the details of that report as it related to the Black River Forest. I , therefore, question Mr. Hun- singer' s comment that "without any notice or warning to my clients , " the City published the Wetland Study. The future use and protection of the Black River Riparian Forest has been the key issue throughout the discussions with the propo nents of this rezone application. The implication contained in this letter that the City withheld information from the proponents is totally erroneous.

Attached for your consideration is a memorandum from the Police Department regarding various aspects of the impact statement. One of the significant areas of concern in the EIS involves the dicussion of the relationship of the proposal to existing plans and policies. Although not currently adopted, the policy element of the Comprehensive Plan has been recommended to the Council, and the Planning Development Committe will commence its deliberations this week. We expect final adoption by the Council within the next few weeks . It should be noted that the Environmental goal discusses in detail the preser- vation of natural resources , wildlife habitat, and wetland areas. Upon adoption, these policy criteria will be considered by the Hearing Examiner in his review of the rezone proposal for the site. We will keep you informed as to the progress of the policy element, and have attached a copy for your consideration. At such time as the corrections noted in the previous draft and comments from other departments have been corrected we will be happy to further review this EIS. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact myself or Gene Williams at your convenience. Vy // er. truly .y , C.' atzti-a avi Cl ens, Acting Planner Director DRC :yb cc : Gene Williams / . . ME '; 0 RA N '. 'iUM • TO DAVE CLEMENS, Sr. Planner DATE 12/10/80 FROM Lt. D.R. Persson SUBJECT Black River Industrial Park After reviewing the draft E. I .S . on this particular project I have the following areas of concern. (1) Traffic access to the area. I do not believe that the roadway system should be built in stages. The present roads into the area cannot handle the increased traffic that the proposed development will generate without additional access points. Thus, the entire roadway system should be developed prior to any building in the area so that the road system is connected at Monster Rd. and Longacres Parkway. By completing the roadway system prior to construction, the traffic impact of this project will be minimized. Also, the development should assist in the installation of a traffic signal at Hardie SW and SW 7th prior to any road construction as this particular area is extremely overcrowded with traffic congestion at the present time and cannot handle even the added traffic that the road construction would create. (2) Light glare from the proposed buildings. This type of complex creates extra patrol work for the police officers on the street due to the necessity of checking the buildings during the hours of darkness. The police officer ' s job is made easier and safer by placing the outside lighting on the fringes of the property so that the light shines in on the building. This allows more safety to the. officer as he is not blinded by lights that are shining off cf the building when responding to calls late at night or while merely checking the building. (3) Railroad crossings. The railroad crossings in the area should be the new style rubberized railroad crossings so as to prevent excess noise and also to make it easier to maintain safe crossings in the future. In the past we have found that railroad crossings were installed that become in disrepair after a year or two and when big trucks cross over these crossings late at night, a large amount of noise is generated that can be heard in surrounding residential areas on Earlington Hill. If the above three conditions are met, I believe the park will not have a major overall impact on our police services. Lt. D.R.

The EIS will discuss the impacts of changing all or part of the current undeveloped riparian forest to an intensive, urban industrial use. No specific site development plans have been prepared, therefore, this EIS will only address the environmental impacts at the general "land use" level. At such time as site specific construction plans are prepared, a further EIS will be prepared, or if appropriate a supplement to this EIS may be utilized. In order to effectively utilize this EIS in the zoning review process , this EIS will discuss both the proponents rezone proposal of the site in its entirety and three primary zoning options . These alternatives are as follows: 1 . Development of 75% of the site (53+ acres) in industrial park use while retaining 25% of the site in scattered open space and natural habitat. 2. Retention of the east or west one-half of the site (35+ acres) in its natural state while allowing industrial development of the remainder. 3. No industrial or other urban development and retention of the site in its entirety in the current undeveloped state. The following table illustrates the comparison of the proposal and three alternatives : Insert table similar to page Ii 20 The alternatives section of this EIS (pg ) provides a qualitative analysis and comparison of the four land use alternatives discussed above. Those aspects of the natural or human environment, such as earth, watery flora and fauna, aesthetics, and recreation which will specifically distinguish geographical areas of the site which may be considered for retention in its natural state are expanded in detail. Thus the alternatives section provides a ready reference for the City' s decision makers in the rezone process. • INTEROFFICE CORRESPONDENCE Date December 8, 1980 TO: / Warren Gbne ason % . �• ., f•� /(7 ) FROM: Dic Houghton/Gary Norris -, SUBJECT: Proposed Draft EIS - Black River Industrial Vats This is a joint memo to provide comments in response to the subject E. I.S. Traffic comments will come first followed by Engineering. TRAFFIC 1. The traffic analysis is very general in nature as a specific analysis is not feasible until a site plan has been developed. 2. I disagree with the statement made in the third paragraph, last sentence. I do not believe enough information is available at this time to make such a statement. 3. To this point in time all other statements appear reasonable; however judgement is withheld as to their acceptability until an in-depth traffic study has been made. 4. Developer should be notified that he will be required to make all traffic related improvements adjacent to the site necessary to serve his development in addition to paying a $20 fee per trip generated (ITE standards) to cover traffic system improvements in addition to those adjacent to the site.

Thorpe & Associates 815 Seattle Tower 3rd & University Seattle, WA 98101 SUBJECT: BLACK RIVER INDUSTRIAL PARK Dear Mr. Thorpe: Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make a preliminary review of access considerations for the proposed project. The purpose of this letter is to identify anticipated adverse traffic impacts and to suggest several alternatives that might be investigated after a more detailed traffic analysis is prepared. As we understand,. this project will be developed with a combination of rail-served manufacturing and/or warehousing uses. The proposal is planned to be developed in two phases: the first phase adjacent to the east side of the proposed Earlington Industrial Park, and the second phase west and adjacent to the proposed P-1 Channel . Access to the first phase is planned to be provided through the Earlington Industrial Park via Powell Avenue SW and another internal access street. If no road improvement were made, access to phase two development would be provided off Monster Road. As we understand, these two phases of de- velopment would be connected via an internal road system. Although specific site plans for the proposal have not been developed, there are several observations that can be made relating to traffic access. During phase one, the majority of traffic will utilize Powell Avenue SW as a primary access route. The additional traffic generated by this proposal should be expected to increase volumes at several primary intersections including Grady Way and Powell Avenue SW, Grady Way and Rainier Avenue South, and 7th Avenue SW and Rainier Avenue. These additional traffic volumes would add to the congestion experienced at these intersections; however, this congestion would be somewhat less than normally experienced with other types of land uses such as office uses, because the working shifts normally associated with these types of uses start earlyend .,,�,._,._ z;�,- r,. i n theme morning and i n the mid-aftern ;C `,;�,;` �e�ue��sE��,°�t(r,,1,P�t�A�o�lv►ir�'°� ��1. ,/'��,,. o n. o;n. o rt 1 °tNp ➢ry 19d►�,i nd 1" `l dF". ly .. ppa,;hatir that ;o cur.,F,b ° p rt^l n .' he h ' Access for phase two is planned to extend out to Monster Road. This connection may be less than desirable from two aspects: the first relates to the difficulty of constructing the road across the P-1 Channel at a bend in Monster Road, and the second relates to the ability of Monster Road to carry the anticipated level of truck traffic. While ,✓/ Mr. Robert W. Thorpe 115 • November 24, 1980 Page Two ` 14srs. • Cro 1p construction problems could be overcome, the structures required could be very costly. In addition, Monster Road is a relatively narrow, two- lane road that has not been designed to serve the anticipated levels of heavy truck traffic. Moreover, the vertical and horizontal alignment of the roadway often restricts sight distance along the road and at its intersection with Grady Way. To alleviate some of these impacts, one alternative might be to completely rebuild Monster Road between the site and Grady Way. This, however, would not eliminate the construction problems associated with connecting the site with Monster Road. Another alternative would be to work in association with the development of Earlington Industrial Park to' con- struct a portion of the proposed Longacres Parkway from Grady Way north to its proposed connection with Monster Road. This would provide a more direct access to the major arterial network. Regardless , the alternative selected to connect the site to and .from Monster Road, it is likely that Monster Road north of the site will have to be upgraded with certain safety improvements and improved traffic control at the intersection of Monster Road and Empire Way would have to be constructed. I trust this letter serves your needs regarding our preliminary observa- tions relative to traffic access to this proposal . If you have any further questions, I invite you to call me so we might refine these alternatives or discuss some alternatives that we may have overlooked.

Ericksen, Planning Director RE: Rough Draft - E.I .S . for Black River Industrial Park My comments regarding the development of Black River Industrial Park are based upon present capabilities of the fire department given the follow- ing information. 1. Virtually the entire area is located outside the 12 mile service radius of the fire departments ' first response engine company, and 2 mile service radius of the first response ladder company as re- quired by the Survey and Rating Bureau standards. 2 . The present statistics indicate that the amount of responses per calendar year are increasing at a rate of 25% . Present crews are working at or near capacity to maintain required drill and inspection time. 3. Average response time for the area based on statistics gathered in 1979 is one minute over the minimum required under the guide lines of the Renton Fire Department Master Plan. 4 . Plans for a future fire station located on Benson Hwy in the vacinity of S .E. 170th will not improve the first response capabilities to this development. 5. Accessibility of surrounding fire departments to the area is limited by a man-made and natural barriers; and is subject to inter-agency agreements. 6. The typical type of occupants in this kind of development is of a high hazard classification either high piled stock or of a highly flammable or hazardous nature requiring special fire protection considerations and increased intervals of inspection. Based upon these considerations, further development of this area should be limited until such time as improvements can be made to provide timely first response capabilities . I would refer you to the Renton Fire Station Location Study conducted in 1973. In it, under recommendations , it mentions considerations for a fire station located in the industrial area. James F.

A Hearing Examiner City of Renton City Hall Renton, Washington 98055 The Black River Forest has been identified as a unique area of climax riparian forest in both the Renton Wetland Study and the DEIS for the Black River Office Park. The Landscape Guidelines for the project prepared by Richard Carothers Associates that I received July 9th from Joel Haggard make no mention of the existing vegetation or preservation of the mature trees on the site. On the basis of the landscape guidelines and the testimony at the June 15th hearing, the Green River Study Group strongly supports the recommendations of the Environmental Review Committee to move the "preservation area" so that it adjoins the 50 foot buffer strip near the Black River Channel. This is the only plan put forward to date that attempts to preserve any remnant of the mature forest that is the unique feature of this site. Even this proposal fails to address the issue of wildlife habitat. Preserving significant habitat for mammals and birds has unfortunately been ignored in the hearing to date. Even so, the concept of a preservation area seems to us a worthwile idea if it is applied to significant features of the site rather than the scnub'alder on the, eastern portion of the site.

CQev1e11) Alterra Corporation . ITEM NO. by Richard Carothers Associates July 1982 1 .01 INTRODUCTION LANDSCAPE GUIDELINES The landscape consists of elements that give form to exterior spaces. Thus, the character of the landscape is created by elements such as streets and building setbacks, the variety and placement of elements such as signing, site lighting, walkways, and plant materials, and the arrangement of major func- tional elements such as project entrances,. parking lots, buildings, service areas etc. Given that project architecture and building sites within Black River Office Park will most likely be of varying types and sizes, landscaping as a design element will play the key role in creating and conveying the. overall character of Black River as a "park-like" working environment. The purpose, then, of these Landscape Guidelines, is to provide design criteria which will help to insure that Black River Office Park achieves an image that is distinctive, clearly understandable and unified. The Landscape Guidelines recognizes that the Black River Office Park consists of three prominent zones, namely, the streetscape zone, the interior zone, and the "preserve" zone. While the "preserve" zone is precisely as it suggests, areas of no disturbance, an understanding of the nature of the other two zones is important to understanding the landscape guidelines and their intent. 4°111.1.1.1111. 1111111111 r. hIAU-IDS A�. • �WELL A .

All improvements within this zone will have the greatest degree of control. Attributes within this zone include: 1. The Landscape Easement - This easement begins at the back of the curb of the main roadway and extends inward for a distance of 30 feet along the entire length of the main roadway. The first 13 feet minimum (including a 5 foot walk) to 24 feet maximum are designated as a Public Parkway and shall be installed by the Developer. The remaining 6 feet minimum to 17 feet maximum shall be a Transition Zone to be improved by the adjacent user. Common elements within • the Landscape Easement include walkways, planting, irrigation, street lighting, project signing and project entries. • $4 H Avg• 4.W.--1 t R au- Ave:.

Lawn shall occur from the curb to the walkway. Informal tree, shrub and ground cover plantings shall occur between the walkway and the landscape easement. • 1Y41 4 OD OS a a --Lo 46• to %pygmy IhNFof MAL FLANi l N( : k 441\v";VA U�oUN.Dc..c>vm.R.

This zone is subject to the needs of each User and, thus, is meant to have a greater degree of flexi- bility than the streetscape zone. Common concerns within this zone in- clude: parking lot arrangements and landscaping, site lighting, regula- tory and directional signing, and service area screening. _ Y . Tv - NACh-IE.

(Refer to Section 1 .2.4.b-4 for plant types.) Subtle light levels, re- strained graphics and screening of service areas will all contribute to reinforcing .the Black River landscape design concept. 1 .2. LANDSCAPE DESIGN GUIDELINES 1.2.1 Assessment District Installation and Maintenance Agreement 1 . All landscape improvements within the Public Parkway (Section 1 .1.1-1 ) will be installed by the Developer or successor. 2. The 30 foot Landscape Easement (Public Parkway and Transition Zone) landscaping and irrigation will be installed as a continuous linear system the entire length of the streetscape zone. Occasional demolition and interruption of this system will be necessary during the process of access drive installations. It is a responsibility of the User to maintain the flow of the irrigation .system during construction, and to re-establish the planting, grading and final irrigation layout that has been interrupted.

Nqites that are not improved or built upon shall be maintained in a clean and neat appearance by the User. Weeds, brush and trash will be removed twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall , or more often as required to maintain a high quality appearance. The Developer and their representative have the right to perform the necessary maintenance and charge the individual User as neces- sary. - 1 .2.3 Landscape Coverage 1 . A minimum of five (5) percent of the area within the property lines of a development site shall be devoted to landscape materials unless otherwise approved in writing by the Grantor or successors. 1 .2.4 Street Frontage Zone Design Guidelines 1 .2.4.a Definition of Street Frontage Zone • 1.

Provide approximately 5 sq. ft. for each caliper inch of trunk measured at 48" above existing grade. The tree well shall be constructed in a manner to protect all roots. No root cutting allowed. Special care shall be taken to maintain ground water level and quality as nearly as possible to pre-development conditions. This may include special irriga- tion and drainage systems or culvert systems connecting the tree wells to nearby wetlands so that the rise and fall of ground water will be similar to pre-development conditions. Storm water may be retained on-site as necessary or desirable to assist in maintaining ground water levels. Tree wells shall be constructed of railroad ties (or treated timbers) with an 8 inch high curb of timber, concrete or asphalt on all sides. Provide hand rails where resultant depressions are more than 30 inches deep. Conditions may vary at each tree location. Analyze each tree to ascertain the best solution or combination of solutions to minimize adverse environ- mental impacts. Consult an Aborist regarding selection of trees to be preserved and preserva- tion procedures to be used. Selected trees are subject to review and approval by the City of Renton.

Thus, the character of the landscape is created by elements such as streets and building setbacks, the variety and placement of elements such as signing, site lighting, walkways, and plant materials , and the arrangement of major func- tional elements such as project entrances, parking lots, buildings, service areas etc. Given that project architecture and building sites within Black River Office Park will most likely be of varying types and sizes, landscaping as a design element will play the key role in creating and conveying the overall character of Black River as a "park-like" working environment. The purpose, then, of these Landscape Guidelines , is to provide design criteria which will help to insure that Black River Office Park achieves an image that is distinctive, clearly understandable and unified. The Landscape Guidelines recognizes that the Black River Office Park consists of three prominent zones, namely, the streetscape zone, the interior zone, and the "preserve" zone. While the "preserve" zone is precisely as it suggests , areas of no disturbance, an understanding of the nature of the other two zones is important to understanding the landscape guidelines and their intent. , C-----lir PegWELL AvF-.s.1..1 5'T1zEET APE z1>1a1a. • iCi7'' ••`......i.•. -.11.4.4fol,,,,...t.,,4.•,.1. ,..t.,v,fip.v.:3f441,t,,,,.4.,-„,„: :.,..,- , -_.,..,.,. fi ti0 d' �,II t•rt, ` rt ,11,. .0`^`'.'i'v is�:,;- H .H65.

All improvements within this zone will have the greatest degree of control . Attributes within this zone include: 1 . The Landscape Easement - This easement begins at the back of the curb of the main roadway and extends inward for a distance of 30 feet along the main roadway. The first 13 feet minimum (including a 5 foot walk) to 24 feet maximum are designated as a Public Park- way and shall be installed by the Developer. The remaining 6 feet minimum to 17 feet maximum shall be a Transition Zone to be improved by the adjacent user. Common elements within the Landscape Easement include walkways, planting, irrigation, street lighting, project signing and project entries. .......mb.\\ N H Aug.. S.W..

This zone is subject to the needs of each User and, thus, is meant to have a greater degree of flexi- bility than the streetscape zone. Common concerns within this zone in- . clude: parking lot arrangements and landscaping, site lighting, regula- tory and directional signing, and service area screening. • 4 1d'uk• •'i•..• k dg-1t ,.,'ilt., N AU-1�i AvE."S.W.

(Refer to Section 1 .2.4.b-4 for plant types.) Subtle light levels, re- strained graphics and screening of service areas will all contribute to reinforcing the Black River landscape design concept. 1 .2. LANDSCAPE DESIGN GUIDELINES 1 .2.1 Assessment District Installation and Maintenance Agreement 1 . All landscape improvements within the Public Parkway (Section 1 .1 .1-1 ) .will be installed by the Developer or successor. • 2. The 30 foot Landscape Easement (Public Parkway and Transition Zone) landscaping and irrigation will be installed as a continuous linear system. Occasional demolition and interruption of this system will be necessary during the process of access drive installations. It • is a responsibility of the User to maintain the flow of the irriga- tion system during construction, and to re-establish the planting, grading and final irrigation layout that has been interrupted. 1 � 1 N-WAY 'a-' ! %',i.T`n '•J-71- si.;>'.�5: �;i',ttcc'Lt'� •i11••'1:!.; _ uFi�f�' •r.

R-129-80' 7 OFFICE PARK ) ) APPLICANT' S SUPPLEMENTAL 8 ) MEMORANDUM 9 ) 10 The Examiner has scheduled applicant' s appeal on • 11 the ERC conditions for the subject property coincident 12 with the conclusion of the rezone hearing. The purpose of 13 this memorandum is to provide applicant' s position on the 14 ERC appeal and to provide supplementary comments upon the 15 rezone. 16 17 Appeal of ERC Conditions 18 19 An EIS was prepared for the total proposal, re- zone and subsequent development. Subsequently applicant 20 tendered to the City on May 25, 1982 additional conditions 21 as part of our total proposal. On May 28, 1982 the ERC 22 23 imposed four conditions on the total proposal, from which 24 this appeal was taken. Our specific concerns and sug- 25 Bested resolutions follow. 26 Conditions l,a. We understand that as of July 1, 27 1982 the P-1 channel project sponsorship underwent signifi- 28 cant change. The predictability that the P-1 channel, as APPLICANT'S SUPPLEMENTAL HAGGARD,TOUSLEY&BRAIN MEMORANDUM 1 ATTORNEYS AND COUNSELORS AT LAW 1700 DAON BUILDING 720 OLIVE WAY SEATTLE,WASHINGTON 98101 624-5299 1 it hasbeen discussed, would be built maybe open to doubt . 2 We had previously agreed to dedicate a portion of the pro- perty to Renton for the P-1 channel. use. , Due to the 4. change, it appears more appropriate not to dedicate the 5 P-1 channel area now but rather to .put .a non-building de- • 6 signation upon it. If it turns out that the area is at 7 some, future time to be used by ,a governmental agency for a 8 flood control and storm drainage project, applicant. is 9 still willing to dedicate the property. Accordingly we 10 recommend Conditions l.a .be revised to read:• , 11 "The area identified as P-1 in Exhibit shall not have any structures other than for 12 flood control or' storm drainage constructed within its boundaries. " 13 Conditions. 'l. b' and l. c. We simply do not under- 14 stand the City' s position and the ERC has no authority 15 under RCW; 43.21C.060 to impose this condition. The City 16 has no adopted resolution, regulation, ordinance, plan or 17 code providing specific authority for such conditions. 18 However, applicant has voluntarily agreed to preserve or 19 dedicate certain areas, within the property (designated 20 . . Preserve or City ,of.. Renton .on Exhibit ) and substitu- 21 tion of. these for the ERC language is not objectionable. 22 ' Condition 2. As articulated above in "Condition 23 . l..b and l. c" the ' ERC has no authority pursuant to RCW 24 25 43 ..21C.06.0 to impose this condition. We are aware that as 26 a result of the testimony of Mr. Jerry Rasmussen (Entranco) , 27 the ERC on. June 30, 1982 changed its position. The ERC' s revised position appears to generally concur with 28 APPLICANT 'S SUPPLEMENTAL MEMORANDUM '. ' 2 1 applicants. However, we will need to explore with the 2 appropriate ERC representative at the hearing certain 3 questions on interpretation of its revised condition 4' before being able :to withdraw this point of dispute.. 5 Conditions 3 and 4. Initially, it may be appro- 6 priate to simply dismiss this appeal without prejudice and 7 allow applicant (or its successor) to challenge these con- 8 ditions at the time specific development proposals are 9 made. For, at this point in time no development is pro- m posed and the issues may be premature. However, the ap- 11 peal was filed due to the time period within which appeals 12 had to, be filed to avoid applicant foregoing its rights. 13 This approach appears consistent with the Ex- 14 aminer' s approach in Earlington Park ( See File PP-056-80, 15 Examiner' s Report of April 28, 1982 at page' 14, para. 11) . 16 Assuming that the Examiner does not wish, to post- 17 pone the appeal until it is ripe, further comments are 18 provided here. 19 Condition 3a . This condition is beyond the ERC ' s 20 authority pursuant to RCW 43 .21C.060. Additionally, this 21 condition is directly prohibited by recent state law.

Houghton, Acting Public Works Director SUBJECT: Black River Office Park Please be advised that David Markley of The Transpo Group, Bob Thorpe of R. W. Thorpe & Associates, Gary Norris and myself met to discuss the EIS for the subject proposal . From that meeting, we determined that the best approach would be a document which addressed the overall traffic impacts of the range of possible developments on that parcel of land. From such an analysis, we believe that we can develop a "feel" for the appropriate scale for the proposed development. When a definite proposal is secured for that parcel of land, the developer will be required to do an in-depth traffic operational study to define problem areas and offer measures of mitigation. This analysis will involve all critical intersections within an area defined by FAI 405 on the south, Sunset Highway on the north, Rainier Ave. on the east and West Valley Highway on the west. The above should be placed as a condition for all permit processes regarding this parcel of property. If you have any questions, please contact Gary Norris.

Box 66101 Seattle, Washington 98166 RE: Archaeological Assessment of the Black River Industrial Park, Renton, Washington, T23N/R4E/Section 13. Dear Mr. Bonds: In accordance with your request we have assessed the archaeological potential of the property on which the Black River Industrial Park is to be located. This parcel of land lies within the drainage of the former Black River, which flowed from Lake Washington (prior to 1917 when the water level of the lake was lowered due to construc- tion of the Montlake Cut and Hiram Chittenden Locks) meandered southwest and drained into the Duwamish River. Two archaeological sites have been discovered and excavated in the area in the last three years. The Sba' badid site includes two loci of cultural activity and is located just west of the Renton Shopping Center. The two locations at Sba'badid have been interpreted by the investigator as two historic Native American villages, probably occupied by members of the Duwamish group of Indians. The older of the two locations revealed the remains of at least one long house approximately 30' x 75' in size. Early deposits here contained few trade goods while in the later deposits trade goods were common. On the basis of artifacts and subsistence remains, it is thought that this location was probably occupied as a winter village in the first years of the 19th century. The second location at Sba'badid was occupied sometime later, possibly as late as 1865. Preservation at both locations in Sba'badid was excellent due to the sealing action of the silt and sand deposited by the Black River. As you are aware, the Office of Public Archaeology conducted archaeological assessment and testing of the proposed site of the Earlington Industrial Park which will be located at the present Earlington Golf Course. As the result of a systematic subsurface coring project , a buried archaeological site was found at the north- east extremity of the property. The portion of the site located 4 Recycled Paper 4 fa 1 Mr. Del Bonds December 11 , 1980 Page Two within the boundaries of the Earlington Industrial Park was excavated by a crew from the Office of Public Archaeology. The site is presently interpreted as a seasonally reoccupied fishing camp which was probably used before the time of the occupation of the two areas at Sba'badid. Analysis is currently proceeding on the cultural remains taken from the site. Our knowledge of the settlement patterns and subsistence practices of groups occupying the Black River has been substantially augmented by the archaeological studies at the two sites. It should be noted however, the northern limits of the site on the Earlington Golf Course have not been surely established. The possibil - ity exists that the site (45KI59) may extend into the property to be occupied by the Black River Industrial Park. This possibility, coupled with the fact that we are now aware of the existence or former exist- ence of several village sites in the general area and that local Indians tended to move their villages often, lead us to believe that the Black River Industrial Park property has a high potential for cultural resources. In order to test the property for possible archaeological sites , we propose a subsurface coring program because past work in the area has shown that aboriginal living surfaces tend to have been buried by alluviation. Both the Sba'badid and the Earlington Golf Course sites lay buried some depth beneath present ground surface, sealed in by the sands and silts deposited by the Black River. We would suggest that coring be carried out in 25M intervals in areas judged to have high archaeological potential and at 50M intervals in other undisturbed areas. This would exclude coring along the old Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad grade which bisects the property from east to west ; the present railroad tracks at the northern boundary of the property since this area is covered with a large amount of fill ; and the channel of the old Black River. These three areas would be excluded from the coring program. Coring of the remaining area, should serve to detect the existence of presently unknown archaeological resources as well as delineate the northern boundary of 45K159, the Earlington Golf Course Site. Mr. Del Bonds December 11 , 1980 Page Three I hope that this assessment and its associated recommendations will prove adequate to your needs. Please contact me if you have , questions or comments.

The Draft EIS is not reprinted herein. This EIS has been prepared pursuant to WAC 197-10-580(2) . ix I ' SUMMARY OF TIE •PROPOSAL r - I. The Proposed Action The project sponsor proposes to rezone a 71.16 acre site from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) designation in order to construct, in 2 phases, an office park and rail served warehousing. Future environmental consequences of specific on-site development will be addressed in more detail in future environmental documents. Off-site improvements may be required to serve this proposal , or this proposal in conjunction with other developments anticipated in the future in this area.. These include improvements to the P-1 drainage channel (see other Governmental Services, p. 86 . of the DEIS) ,. and con- struction of the Valley Parkway. II. Impacts and Mitigating Measures A. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT 1... Earth a. Geology and Soils Impacts Import of fill and reposition and cover of topsoils due to excavation and filling activities. Mitigating Measures Excavation and grading operations on the site will be performed in • conformance with the City of Renton Mining, Excavation and Grading • Ordinance b. Topography Impacts Topography will be modified in order to create buildings and road sites. Mitigating Measures Topographic changes could be restricted to limited areas of the site. c. Unique Physical . Features Impacts Development of the proposal will necessitate removal of 38.6 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site. Mitigating Measures - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained -, through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50 to 100 foot setback from the top of- the bank. 2. Air Impacts There will be a short-term increase in dust and fumes during construction. Over the long-term, automobile-related pollutants will increase as local traffic levels increase. Mitigating Measures - Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. - Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, cleaning and sweeping of streets at the end of hauling activities should be performed by the contractor. 3. Water a. Surface Water Quantity/Quality Impacts Increased surface runoff from the site as well as increased levels - of polluted surface runoff would result from the proposed action. Alteration of runoff characteristics will occur in that diversion of stormflow into ditches and storm pipes will prevent water from flowing to low lying areas and may cause some drying up of wetlands that will be preserved on site, unless storm drainage measures are undertaken to protect them. -xi- • Mitigating Measures - Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. - Stormwater runoff will be collected in a storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. - Oil/water separators should be utilized to remove petroleum products from storm water. • - Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. - Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River Channel . b. Floods Impacts • Fill material will be utilized to bring . building sites above the . 100 year flood elevations. Mitigating Measures - Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 year flood plain which will prevent on-site flooding. - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amounts of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. c. Groundwater Quantity/Movement Impacts Project development would result in an increase of impervious surface on the site, which would decrease the amount of infiltration of precipitation. Mitigating Measures A reduction in building site coverage could require less filling. -xii- 4. Flora Impacts Approximately 84% of the site consists of a unique wetland deciduous forest, a part of the largest forest of this type in the Seattle area. As a result of the proposed action about 78io of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced by building foundations, roads and parking areas. Mitigating Measures - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - Placement of building sites, parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. - Vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. 5. Fauna Impacts Removal of most wildlife habitat and reduction in most native wildlife due to intrusion of human activity. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. - As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. - Surface water quality along Black River should be preserved by planting natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible. • -xiii- 6. Noise Impacts (Short-Term) Noise levels will increase considerably during construction activities with frequent noise peaks depending on the type of equipment used: Traffic noise will increase on adjacent streets. Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00a.m. and 7:00p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of , Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. Impacts (Long-Term) Increase in traffic and train movements will result in a proportionate increase in noise levels. Increases in noise levels due to human activity at the site will occur. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping, careful site design and berming should be utilized near main roads to deflect noise and reduce its impact. - See "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," p• 81 of the DEIS. - Installation of rubberized railroad crossings where the access road would intersect the railroad spurs to the south of the site would decrease noise generation. -xiv- • 7. Light and Glare Impacts Addition of low level lighting on the site. The traffic generated by the site will increase the incidence of headlight glare. Some • glare will be produced by reflections from windows and possibly the buildings themselves. Mitigating Measures - Building wash lighting should not be used. - Perimeter landscaping, fencing and berming, especially around parking areas and road entrances could reduce light spillage. - Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. 8. Land Use Impacts Change in the land use from old growth riparian forest and open space to office park with warehousing. Mitigating Measures An. alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space. 9. Natural Resources Impacts Removal of most of the existing vegetation and open space on the site. Consumption of some natural resources for construction and maintenace of the project. Mitigating Measures Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. 10. Risk of Explosion or Hazardous Emission - Impacts There will be a slight risk of hazardous emission or explosion during construction and potentially from future tenants. -xv- Mitigating Measures None. B. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT 1. Population and Housing Impacts A slight increase in local housing demand may result due to employees desiring to relocate near .their work. Also, day time population levels 'at the site will increase to about approximately 4,100 permanent employees. • 2. Employment Impacts Increased short-term employment during construction and long-term employment. once the development is complete. Mitigating Measures None. • 3. Transportation/Circulation Impacts The proposed Black River Office Park is anticipated to generate be— tween 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day and between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles during the evening peak hour. This additional volume will exacerbate the existing congestion at most of the intersections along major arterials. Mitigating Measures' a) To reduce potential safety hazard, Monster Road should be upgraded to accommodate heavy trucks and increased traffic volumes. This may involve recharmel i 7ntion and possible sig al;zation of the Sunset Boulevard/Monster Road inter- section. . -xvi- b) To discourage the use of single occupant vehicles, the City may consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by the zoning code. c) The road proposed to be constructed along the west edge of Earlington Park, to the south of the site, could be extended in such a way to provide westerly access from the Black River Office Park, in order to reduce traffic volumes that flow through Earlington Park. d) Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. e) If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. f) Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and car- pool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park manage- ment should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. g) As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period. h) Any roadwork on-site could be conditioned to allow open at all times a portion of the road wide enough to permit emergency vehicle access. i) Grade an alignment from was Avenue S.W. which would intersect the road system on-site with a gravel sub base wide enough to allow emergency vehicle access. j) Disruption of traffic flail in the internal road system could be minimized by installing utilities, within the right-of-way, but outside the roadway proper. -xvii- 4. Public Services a. Fire Service Impacts Over the short-term, construction activity may increase the hazards of fire fighting. Construction of the proposal would significantly impact the fire protection responsibilities of the Renton Fire Department. This development, coupled with future development in the area, would necessitate improvements to provide timely first response capabilities. Mitigating Measures - Sprinkler systems installed in buildings per City Code and Fire Marshall 's requirements, will reduce the amount of fire flow required. - Non-combustible building materials would reduce risks of fire. ▪ Industrial tenants could be limited to uses that do not utilize flammable materials. b. Police Service Impacts Demand for police protection will increase. Mitigating Measures - Tax revenues generated from the development will help offset the cost of additional service.. -xviii- - Internal security systems could be installed in the building. - Exterior lighting should be placed at strategic locations to provide additional security measures. c. Hospital Facilities Impacts The proposed project is not expected to significantly affect usage of the Valley General Hospital . Mitigating Measures On-site first aid facilities within major buildings should be provided. d. Parks and Recreation Impacts Development of the site will preclude any future development or designation for park use. Mitigating Measures None. e. Maintenance Impacts Increased demand for City maintenance of streets, water, sanitary sewer and stormwater drainage systems. Mitigating Measures None. 5. Energy Impacts .Increase in demand for electrical power and natural gas and possible increase in demand for energy associated with transportation. -xix- Mitigating Measures - Insulation in roof, walls, flooring and glass should be utilized. - Energy analysis of building design should be performed. 6. Communication Impacts Increase in demand for telephone service. Mitigating Measures - All telephone lines will be installed underground. - Installation of telephone lines will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. 7. Public Utilities Impacts Existing water supply and system would experience some additional demand. Deterioration of water quality entering the combined sewer and storm drainage system is possible during construction activities. In the long-term, the quantity of water entering the system will increase due to increased impervious surfaces on the site. Also, project development would generate increased solid waste and sewage flows from the site. Mitigating Measures Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to its discharge into Springbrook Creek. 8. Human Health Impacts Increased noise levels due to construction, traffic and other human activities may affect the health of nearby residents. -xx- Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. • 9. Aesthetics Impacts • Visual appearance of the site will be altered. Mitigating Measures Site design and retention of some existing vegetation will soften the impacts of the bulk and mass of buildings. 10. Archaeological/Historical Impacts Project development may cover potentially archaeologically significant portions of the site, specifically Duwamish Indian sites. (Refer to the letter from the Office of Public Archaeology in Appendix D of the DEIS.) Mitigating Measures The Office of Public Archaeology of the University of Washington will conduct borings at 25 meter intervals in the areas considered to have high archaeological potential and at 50 meter intervals at other undisturbed areas to confirm specific locations prior to development of the site. -xxi- 11. Economic Factors Impacts The project would create short-term construction employment. The development would also partially ease the demand for industrial building space. The City of Renton will receive an increase in tax revenues and municipal costs generated from the project. Mitigating Measures None. III. Alternatives - Please refer to the comparative analysis in Table 10 on page 111a. Alternative 1 - Development of 75% of the site with 25% in concentrated open space. • This alternative is slightly greater in density than the proposed action, but the site plan would be so designed to allow 25% of the site to remain in concentrated open space. This open space would most likely manifest as' a greenbelt of varying width along the old Black River Channel and Springbrook Creek located at the site' s southern perimeter. Impacts This alternative would retain approximately 25% of the site in its natural state as a riparian forest. The impacts of this development alternative would be slightly greater than the proposed action; however, the difference in impacts is not readily quantifiable. It is expected that this alternative would generate slightly greater impacts in the following elements: soils, topography, erosion, air quality, runoff, flora, fauna, noise, light and glare, natural resources, employment, transportation/circulation, public services, aesthetics, and economic factors. When definite site plans become available for review, specific differences in impacts can be assessed. -xxii- Feasibility According to the developer, this alternative is economically desirable and feasible. However, the increased impacts caused by an increase in density would reduce feasibility with respect to service from city and public utilities, as well as diminish the acceptability of project development in regard to the physical environment (soil , topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources.) Alternative 2 - Development of 46% (33 acres) of the site with 38 acres remaining in open space. Description This alternative differs from the proposal in that building would occur on only Phase 1 of the property with the remaining 38 acres (the western one-half of the site) preserved in open space reserve to mitigate the development impacts. Impacts Overall , this alternative would place decreased demand on the physical environment. Specifically, no development would take place in the western portion of the site. This area would be preserved as open space which would eliminate the impacts on soils, topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources for that areas Impacts to the physical environment in the developed areas would be comparable to those of the proposed project. Impacts to the human environment (public services, utilities, energy and archaeological resources) would be similar to the proposed project. However, impacts on such elements as transportation/circulation, air quality, noise and employment would be diminished. Feasibility This alternative would reduce the amount of leasable building space by an undetermined amount. There is a high demand for rail-served warehousing which may not be tapped if the project were to exclude this use. -xxiii- Alternative 3 - No Development Description This alternative would leave the site in its undeveloped state on a permanent basis or on a temporary basis until some other proposal for development is approved by the City. However, pressure to develop would continue due to Manufacturing Park designation on the Comprehensive Plan, development of the surrounding properties and increasing demand for industrial land development. Impacts All adverse environmental impacts of the project would be eliminated with this alternative. The positive economic benefits of the project, such as increased property taxes, creation of short- and long-term employment and partial alleviation in demand for industrial land would also not occur. The most significant impact of this alternative would be preservation of the riparian forest which would extend the opportunity to the City to purchase the site and preserve it as a green belt. No development would shift the impacts of development to other sites which may be more or less suited for these uses. Feasibility . The "no develoment" alternative would not meet the objectives of the proponents. The feasibility of the City in acquiring the site for the purpose of presesrvation is unlikely due to the market value of property and the City's Comprehensive Plan designation of the site for manu- facturing park use. However, the City may require preservation of substantial portions of the site due to the potentially adverse environmental consequence of development. IV. Unavoidable Adverse Environmental Impacts I. The Physical Environment A. Earth 1. Changes in the contours of the site, including excavation depths of a maximum of 10 feet for utilities. 2. Addition of fill over native soils. -xxiv- • I B. Air 1. Increased air pollution from automobile emissions. 2. Increased particulate levels due to construction activity and additional traffic volumes. 3. Short-term odors during construction activities. C. Water 1. Increased surface runoff from the site which may contain an increased level of urban pollutants. 2. Potential alteration of ground water movement, quantity and quality on it the site. D. Flora About two-thirds of the natural riparian vegetation on the site would be removed. E. Fauna 1. A reduction in the ability of the site to serve as habitat for wildlife. 2. Reduction in number and diversity of wildlife. F. Noise 1. Increased noise levels over the short-term due to construction i activity. 2. Increased noise levels over the long-term due to human activity and increased traffic and rail volumes. G. Light and Glare Light and glare will be emitted from the site to surrounding properties. -xxv- H. Land Use 1. Loss of open space. 2. Preclusion of alternative land uses for the site during the life of the project. I. Natural Resources 1. Consumption of building materials and energy. 2. Conversion of open space to warehousing and commercial uses. II. The Human Environment A. Population and Housing Very slight increase in population to the City. B. Employment None. C. Transportation/Circulation Traffic impacts will be increased as a result of project development. D. Public Services and Utilities Increased demand for all public utilities and public services. Cumulatively, with other developments in the valley, utilities and services will eventually need to be increased. E. Aesthetics Visual appearance of the site will be altered. F. Archaeological/Historical The potential removal of an archaeological site. G. Economics Unknown. -xxvi- DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL I. Name of Proposal Black River Office Park II. Project Sponsor Alterra Corporation 2120-A S.W. 152nd St. P.O. Box 66101 Seattle, WA 98166 The proponents have requested a rezone of 71.16 acres from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP). The development, to be completed in two phases, will contain rail-served warehouse and an office park. III. Project Location The proposed project is to be located on a 71.16 acre site, approxi- mately one mile west of the Renton central business district. The site is bounded on the north by the Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of- Way, on the east by the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development, on the south by the proposed Earlington Industrial park, ' and on the west by Monster Road and the P-1 pumping station. IV. Other Agencies Maintaining Files on the Proposal None. • V. Site Description Roughly 11.5 acres of the 71.16 acre site have been cleared and about 59.5 acres consist of riparian forest. Approximately 5 acres of the cleared portion of the site is presesntly used for dumping purposes for a land fill . Access to the fill area is via a dirt road adjacent to the railroad intersecting Monster Road. The remainder of the site is heavily vegetated by a riparian forest. The site is generally level except for those areas near the railroad tracks which have been filled. -xxvii- VI. Description of the Surrounding Area The immediate vicinity of the project site is characterized by a com- bination of rapidly developing industrial lands and undeveloped open space with several residences to the east. The site is north of and contiguous with the Earlington Golf Course; this acreage has been proposed for industrial park. North of the site is the Burlington Northern railroad tracks. Across the tracks from the site is a heavily wooded slope covering the south side of Earlington Hill . To the west is the King County Black River Wastershed pump station and Monster Road. To the east and northeast is the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development, VII. Major Physical and Engineering Aspects of the Proposal • Definite site plans have not been determined. However, tentative land use percentages are as follows: Site Coverage Use Acreage Percentage Warehouse, 12.09 . 17% Office 35.58 50% • Roads 2.85 4% Total Developed 50.52 71% Open Space 20.64 29% (Approximately 35% of the riparian forest would remain upon development.) Also, the proponent intends to impose development restrictions, including the following: 1. The minimum tract size for any development shall be 2 acres. 2. Maximum land coverage by building shall be 40 percent. 3. Maximum site coverage by impervious surfaces shall be 70 percent. 4. Each developed site shall retain a minimum of 20 percent of the is natural vegetation in a contiguous pattern. 5. An architectural control committee shall approve all structures in order to ensure that the design is complementary to the existing environment in the area. -xxviii- II . II yf .

Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, a Department of the Army permit is required for the discharge of dredged or fill material into L the Black River west of the dam and pumping stations near Fort Dent Park, as well as for any fill in wetlands associated with the western- most reach of the Black River. 2. Page 3, paragraph b, Floods. The majority of the proposed site is classified as a Broadleaf Swamp, with a smaller portion on the northwest 2 border classified as Shrub Swamp, according to classification criteria developed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in their National Wetland Inventory. Both classifications provide valuable benefits for storm water retention, wildlife habitat, and water filtration/purifica- tion. Filling or alteration of these areas may also require concurrence on the project from the FWS, as well as a Section 404 permit from the 3 Corps of Engineers. 3. Detailed analyses are required to evaluate impacts on flooding from deletion of existing storage areas and acceleration of runoff to assure that flooding will not be aggravated. 4. Page 55, paragraph 3A, second paragraph, and page 88, paragraph 4F, last paragraph. The proposed development would have little adverse effect on runoff if the proposed Soil Conservation Service (SCS) East Side Watershed Project is completed. The SCS design has sufficient hydraulic capacity to accommodate all the increase in runoff related to the development described in the EIS. The Black River pumping plant has sufficient capacity with or without completion of the channel improve- ments upstream of the pump plant. However, since conveyance to the pump plant is insufficient without cha.no.el improvements, loss of storage r 4 spa'-e by landfill would force water presently stored in the proposed office park area to other areas. 5. The EIS clearly (and correctly) states that "project development will result in increased surface runoff and simultaneous reduction in flood storage capacity of the site which will contribute to flooding conditions. . ." (page 98). However, it does not provide enough detailed information or data to adequately assess the impacts from this increase in surface runoff, decrease in flood storage, and the contribu- tion to flooding. a. There is no quantitative data to indicate the magnitude of increase in runoff, decrease in flood storage, or the type and magnitude of change in flooding proolems resr.1`ing from the proposed project. ., •ti / -3 • - b. More specifically, there is no quantitative data on the impacts of this project on the SCS.'s Eastside Watershed Project. Will it impact the feasibility or flexibility of the SCS project? SCS's project should be listed on page 19, "The Relationship of Proposal to Existing Laws, Policies, and Plans." c. There is no discussion of what will be done about the proposed project's "contribution to flooding conditions" until the construction of SCS's P-1 channel and detention pond are completed (see page 98). The proposed Black River project will contribute to the flooding problem and there is no guarantee of when, if ever, the Eastside SCS project will be constructed. Further analysis is needed on the impacts of the project on flooding in the absence of the SCS project. The EIS should indicate alternatives available, if any, to the valley cities in con- taining additional rates of storm water runoff. If studies indicate that the expected increases in runoff rates and volumes cannot be pro- vided �'• for, the EIS should then point out anticipated impacts to the natural environment as well as to plans for valley flood reduction measures now proposed by the Corps of Engineers, King County, and other valley cities. d. The EIS does not discuss the combined impacts and/or cumulative effects of the proposed Black River Office Park project and the Earling- ton Woods Planned Unit Development (PUD), located east of the proposed project site, with regard to increased surface runoff, changing drainage patterns, etc. The Earlington Woods PUD is being constructed, and run- off from the site is and will be routed through the Black River Office Park site and into Springbrook Creek which drains the wetlands at the proposed site (page 54). .a e. The EIS states that storm water runoff will receive "wetland treatment." First, this term needs to be defined. Second, since the 5 proposed project will increase surface runoff and decrease the wetlands, will the remaining wetlands be adequate for "wetland treatment" of the runoff? 6. Generally, the EIS lacks detailed information. It is difficult to assess the impacts of the project on flood plain management objectives, water quality, the need for a 404 permit, the SCS project, and induced flooding (these last two are of interest and indirectly related to the Corps' Green River Flood Damage Reduction Study). -4- Response to Comments from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers Comment Number: 1 The applicant has discussed with representatives of the Corps of Engineers the applicability of the Section 404 permit to potential development on the subject site. The Corps of Engineers indicated that a previous decision regarding waterways upstream from the P-1 Pump Plant could possibly exempt the site from the requirements of the 404 permit. This matter will be reviewed in. full at such future. time when building permits are sought in association with a specific development proposal. Comment Number: 2 To incorporate the information provided in the comment letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, the following sentence is hereby added to the discussion of "Surface Water Quantity/Quality - Existing Conditions," on page 54 of the Draft EIS: - "These. swamps provide valuable benefits for storm water retention, wildlife habitat, and water filtration/purification." • Comment Number: 3 Please refer to the response to comment 1, above. Comment Number: . 4 The consulting firm of Entranco Engineers has conducted a drainage analysis for the Black River Office Park which has been included as Appendix D of this document. The report addresses in detail the existing and future conditions of estimated flood elevations and the rate and volume of local stormwater runoff generated on the project site. Table 1 on page 6 of Appendix D summarizes the estimated volume of runoff accumulation and corresponding flood stage ele- vation both with and without the P-1 Channel and for present and projected future levels of development as indicated in accordance with existing land use plans. -5- I I Comment Number: 5 • Entranco Engineers has conducted a water quality impact analysis, the results of which have been included in this document as Appendix A. The details of the wetland treatment proposed for the Earlington Park and Black River Office Park developments are discussed on page A-3 • of that report. Entranco Engineers has concluded that the old Black River Channel has adequate storage ability "to provide a high degree of water quality treatment for the combined stormwater runoff from • existing and proposed projects in the vicinity." (page A77) • These water quality improvements can not be achieved with the imple- mentation of the P-1 forebay since the forebay includes major portions of the existing Black River Channel. However, the existing quality of Springbrook Creek is only slightly better than anticipated runoff quality, and it is unlikely post development runoff will result in any measurable increase in pollutant concentrations in Springbrook Creek.

EIS for Black River Office Park and' has the following comments: --The relationship of the proposed development to the current plans fcr the East Side Green River Watershed Project should be discussed in greater length than as on page 55. The site plan indicates that the area north �. and northeast of the Black River pump plant will be developed. Green River•. • Project Plans include this area as part of a holding pond (forebay) . We, therefore, recommend that this area be excluded from development. --0n page 61, the report; states that "vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent." It is important that the width and length be stated, as'the forest is an important design 2. feature of Green River's holding pond. The pond area will be designed to provide habitat for wetland wildlife which will be enhanced by the "edge effect" provided by the existing forest. --Page 22, the development of. the : :parian forest would be a loss of a natural resource which has scientific and educational value. This is not recognized. 15,6. The forest is a rare, old growth riparian stand of mature trees similar to the vegetation that once existed along the Green River in this area. In addition the riparian forest is a unique visual resource, in that it has high .4. visual resource quality. It provides the large mass of green relief needed in the landscape and acts as a screen and landmark. --The statement considers saving isolated trees to enhance the visual effect of the development. Considering the species involved and their tolerance to development, it is questionable whether the trees designated to be re- tained will survive. . Such development will severely interrupt the ecosystem presently functioning in the riparian forest. --On page 37, there is a list of cer- in basic factors and site conditions 1, 1(,. desirable for industrial development.

Soil Conservation Service Comment Number: 1 The East Side Wastershed Project is discussed in reasonable detail on pages 86-88 of the Draft EIS, under "F. Other Governmental Ser- vices." According to David Clemens of the Renton Planning Department, the design for the placement of the P-1 Channel calls for a small portion of the project site to be included in the forebay area, but none of the forest is planned to be included. However, the proponent of the Black River Office Park has indicated that he will revise the site design as necessary to accommodate the placement of the P-1 improvements, once its. plans are finalized. See also the response to comment 4, letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, on page 5 of this Final EIS. Comment Number: 2 . As illustrated on the conceptual site plan on page. viii of the Final EIS, the vegetative setback from the southern property line would vary from 50 feet to 150 feet and extend the. full length of the southern property line,, .excluding the 'segments intersected by the access roads. The southern property line is approxmiately 5800 feet long of which 1150 feet have previously been filled. The remaining 4,650 lineal feet is pre- sently forested. Comment Number: 3 To incorporate the concerns of the Soil Conservation Service, the following information is hereby included in the discussions of "1.F. RESOURCE OBJECTIVE" (page 22) and "Parks and Recreation - Impacts" (page 85) of the Draft EIS: "The site, characterized by a rare, old growth riparian stand of mature trees, exhibits scien- tific and educational value which would be af- fected upon project development.:'Development of the property as proposed in Figure 3 would elim- inate approximately 65% of this resource." -9- Comment Number: 4 • The final sentence of the initial paragraph of the discussion of • "Aesthetics - Existing Conditions" on page 94 of the Draft EIS is hereby amended to read as follows: "It serves as a visual relief from the sur- rounding developed areas of the Valley." The final sentence of the discussion of "Aesthetics - Impacts" on page 95 of the Draft EIS is hereby amended to read as follows: "Development of the property as illustrated by Figure 3 will eliminate a portion of this visual relief. (Approximately 65 percent of the riparian forest is proposed to be removed) . The perception of reduction in visual relief will vary depending on vantage points." Comment Number: 5 Comment noted. These impacts are acknowledged on page 61 of the Draft EIS. • Comment Number: 6 The factors and site conditions considered desirable for industrial 'development listed on pages 37 and 39 of the Draft EIS were quoted from the Renton Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The discussion of consistency of the proposed Black River Office Park with these guide- ' { lines commences on page 40, where it is acknowledged that the proposal site is characterized by poor drainage and that it will be necessary to introduce fill material in order to bring some areas of the site above the 100-year flood level. The proposal is also inconsistent with several related objectives of the City's Comprehensive Plan as described on pages 21 - 24 in the Draft EIS. i~ Comment Number: 7 The TRANSPO Group has conducted a general traffic analysis of the po- tential impacts of the proposed rezone of the subject site, which has been included in this document as Appendix B. On page 4 and 5 of that report, the existing conditions as well as proposed mitigations for ' Monster Road are discussed. -10- Funding of the improvements outlined in the attached traffic analysis, (Appendix B) , will be based on a proportional use formula. The costs for road and intersection improvements should be allocated in propor- tion to the traffic volumes generated by the proposal compared to the total traffic volume using the section of road and/or intersection that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the bene- fit received. Necessary transportation improvements will be consistent with phasing of development. The issue of how the City of Renton and/or other developers fund nec- essary improvements, excluding those required of the development des- cribed in this EIS, are beyond the scope of this EIS. An in depth traf- fic.:operational study to define problem areas and offer measures of mitigation will be done when a definite development proposal is submit- ted for this site. See letter from City of Renton Public Work Director Richard Houghton, last page of this EIS. Comment Number: 8 On February 28, 1981, the City of Renton issued Wetlands Study: A Reconnaissance Study of Selected Wetlands in the City of-Renton which evaluates significant remaining wetlands in the City with the intention to develop an overall policy for protection of wetland functions. The study contains general policy recommendations as well as specific recommendations for preserving certain wetlands. The • Black River Riparian Forest, contained within the subject site, was ranked by the study as the most important wetland in the study area, thereby warrenting all reasonable measures to permanently'protect it. According to David Clemens of the Renton Planning Department, the study . has been accepted as a technical document and is awaiting review by the Planning Commission. . It has not been adopted as policy by the City Council.

The Fish and Wildlife Service has repeatedly emphasized the wildlife values of the Black River Riparian Forest in our review of various proposed projects (e.g. the SCS East Side Green River Project) . Its value is also mentioned in the EIS itself, as well as in your own City of Renton Wetlands Study: "This forested wetland in (sic) considered the most valuable wetland within the City. It is large, fairly isolated, has high overall wildlife diversity, high wildlife and waterfowl potential , and an extremely unique vegetational character composed of a complex of old growth riparian species. It provides high value open space and aesthetic qualities. The interaction with Springbrook Creek and the P-1 channel detention basin increases its wildlife habitat value (p. 11 )." Although we have not made a detailed study of the area, wildlife charac- teristic to this type of habitat include: mink, long-tailed weasel , river otter, raccoon, screech owl , great horned owl , red-tailed hawk, . grouse, swallows, belted kingfisher, land great blue heron. These animals and the forest itself can provide a valuable recreational and educational resource for your community. These urban wildlife areas are increasing in importance as both general public appreciation and recrea- L tional travel costs rise. Accordingly, we do not believe a decision to enact the proposed rezone would be defensible from a public interest perspective. We appreciate the very real difficulties faced by a city in acquiring such lands, but we firmly believe such long-term protection is as vital to the public interest as a viable business community. The uniqueness 2. of this area may make its acquisition of interest to the Nature Conservancy. Additionally, it is our understanding that the area is under priority consideration for acquisition under King County's proposed Park and Open -12- • Space Bond Program. King County presently has a landscape architect preparing conceptual development plans for including the forest in a 2. recreation system linking Fort Dent Park and other areas along P-1 Channel and the Green River. Obviously, the final decision is up to the city and will reflect your underlying goals and objectives for, presumably, a balance between economic development and resource protection that will result in the quality of life desired by your constituents. We urge you to give our comments your serious consideration. Yours sincerely, SorICharles A. Dunn Field Supervisor • • -13- Response to Comments from the United States Department of the Interior Comment Number: 1 Comments reflecting opposition to the proposed rezone are noted. Any future zoning or other land use decisions must balance the benefits and detriments of development of the subject site. The proponent must clearly support the proposals consistency with appropriate public plans and policies, and show that the proposal is timely. If any of these is- sues are unresolved, the plan as proposed could be modified, rejected or deferred until sufficient certainty is achieved. Comment Number: 2 According to Jeanette Veasey of the King County Parks Planning Department, the King County Parks and Open Space General Obligation Bond Proposal is tentatively scheduled to be placed on the ballot in the Fall of 1982. The General Obligation Bond proposed is recommended in a report devel- oped by a citizen committee entitled "Pro-Parks." However, Ms. Veasey indicated that the riparian forest on the site is not included in the acreage to be considered for acquisition. • -14- • • ;t IN5!'I I l,`:1Ai'� DONALD W.MOOS Director 5!: ii:: v,SI-iUNC,lONE DE),AR `MLN ( ECOLOGY • M'iia Stop I'V-i 1 a ayirpiv, '✓ ,Ishinrton 98504 ,, (206)753-2800 May 21, 1981 • • • Mr. David Clemens • Acting Planning Director City of Renton . • • Municipal Building ' 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 • Dear Mr. Clemens: Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the draft environmental impact statement (EIS) , Black River Office Park.

Environmental Impact Statement and have the following concerns. Reference is made several times in the EIS that a 50-foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River channel will be maintained. The EIS also indicates that the majority of the site is wetland and will require fill . For the purpose of measuring the 50-foot setback, what is considered to be �. the top of the bank? What would be the physical dimensions and configuration of the riparian zone? The EIS indicates that oil/water separators could remove most pollutants from the stormwater runoff. Apparently the applicant or the City of Renton is designing an improved, system. This is encouraging from the standpoint that 2. most of the systems currently in use are inadequate to maintain desired water quality. We would be interested in reviewing the updated designs for oil/water separator .systems. It is also planned to route stormwater runoff from the site to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. However, one of the unavoidable adverse impacts will be an increase in urban pollutant levels in the runoff. What will be the effects of these pollutants upon the wet:and? Will the character of the wetland be 3 altered, thus further eliminating what is described in the Draft EIS as, • . . a 70-acre climax riparian hardwood ecosystem, the last remaining example in the lower Green River Valley" (page 49)? • The statement on page 63 should be corrected. .

The applicant, as well as Other owners of property abutting the proposed P-I Channel improve- ments, are continuing to negotiate with the King County Hydraulics and Soil Conservation District in considering their design criteria in re- lation to proposed development for adjacent properties. In this respect, the precise location of the preserved riparian zone has yet to be finalized. In order to assure a minimum natural setback of 50 •feet the final land use design should calculate this setback from the future P-1 forebay property line. It should be noted that the 50 foot setback is the proponent's de- sign proposal. Specific dimensions approved by the city in the land use approval process may be more or less than this dimension. , Comment Number: 2 ' As discussed on page A-3 of Appendix A, entitled Water Quality Impact Assessment by Entranco Engineers, the use of oil/water separators, in conjunction with the proposed wetland treatment, and gabion structures, as well as frequent street cleaning, should result in sufficient water quality treatment so that no significant degradation to Springbrook , Creek would occur. Installation and maintenance costs of the storm • water system which treats On-site storm water will be borne by the pro- ponent. Comment Number: 3 Development of the property as currently proposed would eliminate approx- - imately 77 percent of the riparian forest. Entranco Engineers has ana- lyzed the influence of. the combined surface water runoff from Earlington Woods PUD, Earlington Park and the proposed Black River Office Park on the proposed wetland treatment of the old Black River Channel. The results of analysis have been included in this document as Appendix A. As stated on page A-5 of that report, ". . . the treatment available in the old Black - River is sufficient to remove more than 70 percent of pollutants." result- -19- ing a higher quality of runoff than presently exists in Springbrook Creek. However, implementation of the P-1 Forebay would eliminate the Black River Channel's ability to filter out pollutants since the forebay includes major portions of the existing Black River Channel. (See the Water Quality Analysis, Appendix A, page 7 of the Draft EIS.) Comment Number: 4 The discussion of "Fauna - Existing Conditions," on page 63 of the Draft EIS is hereby revised as follows: "A Washington State Department of Fisheries report indicates that Springbrook Creek is one of the im- portant tributaries supporting runs of Coho salmon. However, Chum salmon do not migrate into Springbrook Creek." Comment Number: 5 A graphic depiction of the proximity of the subject site to the current design of the SCS forebay area is shown on the site plan on page viii of this document. This forebay area would require about Without the P-1 system, implementation of the proposal would increase flood storage elevations by up to .3 feet. In addition, included as Appendix D of this document is a Drainage Analysis conducted by Entranco Engineers, which examines the estimated flood elevations with and without the P-1 Channel project for both present and future levels of development.

You state, "Approximately 84% of the site consists of a unique wetland deciduous forest, a part of the largest forest of this type in the Seattle area. As a result of the proposed action about 78% of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced by building foundations, road and parking areas. " (page 4) As you know, wetlands such as this wooded swamp are important for fish and wildlife resources. Wetlands serve as sponges. They store water in winter and buffer flood flows. In the summer they dry out and release their water to adjacent streams. This helps maintain low flows in the stream in summer. You mention on page 54, "The Black River exhibits relatively high nutrient concentrations and low levels of both dissolved oxygen concentrations and turbidity. Springbrook Creek is characterized by high bacterial contamination and nutrient concentration; in addition, state standards for dissolved oxygen concentrations are exceeded. " The loss of wetlands would be expected to reduce dissolved oxygen in the creek and river as flows are reduced in summer. This proposal as planned may have some very serious consequences for water quality. 21 =4-,•3 Mr. David Clemens June 8, 1981 Page Two You state on page 55, "It is planned that stormwater runoff will be directed to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. " Under this proposal, would silt, oil, grease, and other contaminants be routed to the wetland? It is unlikely the remaining wetland (50-foot wide) would be able to remove silt, let alone prevent oil and grease from entering Springbrook Creek and Black River. Further water quality degradations would impact fish resources in the creek and river. Wetlands are important wildlife habitat. Wooded swamps provide habitat for several tiers of wildlife. Because they border a stream, they have increased wildlife value. Riparian areas serve as wildlife corridors. Your document lists mitigation measures that should or might be done. We wonder what requirements would be placed on the develop- 3. ment to mitigate impacts, especially loss of wetlands, water quality, and fish and wildlife habitat. From your discussion of fauna and flora, it seems that a U. S. Army Corps of Engineers section 404 permit would be required for any fill in the wetlands. You will need to contact the Corps 4. to find out if they have jurisdiction. However, any unauthorized wetland fill in an area under the Corps' jurisdiction could be _ subject to removal and financial penalty. In short, we are very concerned over the loss of the public' sIF 5 fish and wildlife resources that would accompany this project. Growth is going to have to be planned and be orderly if fish and wildlife are to survive while urbanization is directed to those areas most suited for it. Thank you for sending your document.

Comment Number: 3 When the Draft EIS states that mitigating measures "will" be undertaken, it indicates that such measures are already planned as part of the proposal or that the action sponsor will implement them. Use of other language (such as "should" or "could") indicates that the City, at its discretion, and in conformance with the City SEPA Ordinance and SEPA policies, will consider these mitigating measures as possible conditions in association with approval of a rezone or other development permit.

The traffic that this proposal will generate was not assigned to any of the existing or proposed site access roads. Therefore, we have to assume that a large number of the potential 9,070 to 34,030 vehicle trips per day that this development may generate will pass through the Monster ' Road (68th Avenue 'South)/Sunset Blvd. (SR 900) intersection. Given this assumption we agree with the statement made on Page 81a of this document, "This may involve rechannelization and possible sig • - nalization of the Sunset Blvd./Monster Road intersection." The Department would like to point out that we have no money in our current operating program to finance these improvements. The developer through the lead agency should arrange to finance these improvements in the project capitilization to prevent the existing and new users of the aforementioned intersection from suffering under poor safety and operative conditions for the foreseeable future.

It con- tains a travel. assignment estimate for volumes on Monster Road (page 2) and recommends various mitigations and improvements to enhance smooth traffic flows (pages 4 and 5) . Because of the wide range of potential traffic volumes that could use Monster Road (because of the . wide range, of development potentials for this and other parcels in this area) ,' it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more refined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic as- signment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. - The City indicates that any roadway and intersection improvements -1 j shall be installed by the developer with appropriate reimbursement through a latecomers agreement. The developer, however, has questions regarding the legality of this approach. Comment Number: 2 • As noted above, the funding for any of the improvements recommended in the Traffic Analysis is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. The costs for improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should . be allocated in proportion to the traffic volumes generated by this • proposal compared with the total traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development poten- tentials for this and other areas, in the area) , it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point..

With respect to the Transportation/Circulation section King Countyof the EIS, Commuter Pool would like to make the following comments. Director of Public Works We commend and encourage the proponents initiative in addressingthe City of Kirkland g P � Manager of transportation impacts and possible mitigating measures at this early Transit Development stage of project development. The suggestions to reduce parking space Metro requirements at the project site, to provide subsidized transit Transportation Engineer passes, to actively inform tenants and employees of fleetride, van- City of Bellevue pool, and carpool options, and to encourage the flex-time system of Traffic Engineer work scheduling, are all acceptable methods to encourage alternatives City of Seattle to the single occupancy vehicle. We realize this DEIS is intended to address the environmental impacts of the proposed rezone only at-the general "land-use" level and that specific site plans and au:'. mpanying detailed traffic/parking data are still forthcoming. We nevertheless feel compelled at this time to make several additional suggestions in an effort to more clearly spe- cify the level of commitment required of the proponent to successfully • mitigate the adverse traffic impacts of this proposal. We would like to recommend, upon completion of a detailed study of on- site parking availability and usage, that the proponent thoroughly • explore the potential for supplementing an aggressive ridesharing program which would include preferential carpool/vanpool parking, sponsorship of a vanpool program, and other affirmative efforts as a means to reduce the traffic/parking impacts. We believe this is important because merely "advising" tenants and employees of the advantages of fleetride, carpool, vanpool etc. is an insufficient degree of commitment to brir, about the desired results. Neither is it sufficient to assume that the worsening traffic conditions will persuade commuters to seek alternative modes of travel.

The following water quality concerns should be discussed in the FEIS: •- Design and maintenance plans for the on-site stormwater detention facilities should be incorporated into the Final EIS . The riparian forest and wetland on the site are water recharge areas, and would serve a valuable function in the stormwater control system if they were saved from development. • The Soil Conservation Service' s East Watershed Project is described on pp. 86-88 of the DEIS.

Carol ^ ' Jerry Dow Monitoring & Analysis -32- I , Response to Comments from the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle Comment Number: l Development of the site as currently proposed would eliminate approx- imately 65.4% of the riparian forest on the project site, and would replace approximately 70% of the site with impervious surfaces, thereby reducing the natural stormwater control and groundwater recharge propor- tionately. As stated on page 55 of the Draft EIS, the stormwater drainage will not be detained on the site, in accordance with the East Side Green River Watershed Project. The EIS suggests that temporary stormwater detention facilities be installed during the construction period. This mitigation may be required as a condition of development, in which case, the developer will install the facilities. This EIS has addressed the impacts of rezoning the site from General Classification to Manufacturing Park and development generally consistent with this zoning. When specific development plans are proposed, additional...EISs will be issued and, at that time, specific design plans for on-site stormwater detention facilities will be included. Comment Number: 2 As stated above, this EIS has addressed the impacts of the rezone of the site from General Classification to Manufacturing Park, and the general uses allowable by such rezone, rather than the impacts of a specific development proposal. This site plan on page viii of this Final EIS is intended to be representative of probable development to occur on the site; however, as yet, no specific proposal is planned. Therefore, the relation- ship of site development to the scheduling of the Eastside Drainage Project cannot be determined at this time. However, failure of the SCS P-1 system to be developed could affect development of the subject property. Natural flood storage wouldlneed to be maintained unless an alternate flood reduc- tion system were established. Such a program would be the subject of other environmental documents and permit approval requirements.

Dear Mr. Clemens: Alg.,_DEPA Black River Office Park J' • We are submitting the following comments based on our review of the Black River Office Park draft e:rrironmental impact statement. • - - It does not appear that the air quality impact from the estimated 9;000 to 34,000 vehicle trips per day has been addressed. This is • a significant amount of vehicle trips and the amount of potential pollutants needs to be evaluated. It is suggested that on-site I. 1 monitoring and modeling be performed to determine current and future • carbon monoxide concentrations. We strongly recommend that modeling be performed to determine whether the project will delay attainment of the carbon monoxide and ozone standards, since this project is - located in the carbon monoxide and ozone nonattainment area. It is. also recommended that all mitigating measures discussed in the re- 2. • port (page 53) be implemented to reduce construction related emissions. The upgrading of existing roadways and other mitigating measures dis- cussed in the Transportation section (page 80) should be implemented. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

The peak hour carbon monoxide concentration re- corded at that facility was 3.2 parts per million (ppm) , substantially less than'. the Washington State ambient air quality standard of 35 parts per. million. It may be assumed that existing peak hour carbon monoxide concentrations have increased from the 1977 level due to the increase in traffic volumes in the area. The methodology outlined in AP-42 "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors," Second Edition, Supplement No. 5, February, 1976 was utilized in calculating the potential increases in carbon monoxide concentrations resulting from development of the proposed Black River Office Park. This analysis was based upon worst case conditions occuring during the evening peak hour, during which, according to the traffic consultant, maximum of 3,790 vehicles could be generated. In addition, base conditions for this analysis are as follows: rush hour conditions (50% cold start, 10% hot start)'; vehicle mix for a central city area at 10 miles per hour; 100 - foot receptor distance; parallel winds (2 mph wind speeds) and 50o temper- atures. The results of this analysis indicate that maximum traffic vol- umes generated by project implementation could potentially produce average peak one-hour carbon monoxide concentrations of approxmiately 10.4 parts per million (ppm) . The Washington State Air Monitoring Data for 1980, published by the Washington State Department of Ecology, indicates that the nearest moni- toring station recording levels of ozone is located in Kent, at which there were no recorded violations of the national standard. A more detailed air quality impact analysis will be prepared when speci- fic development plans are proposed.

Our concerns are as follows. GENERAL COMMENTS Relationship of Riparian Forest to East Side Project Local sponsors of the East Side Watershed Project with the cooperation of the Soil Conservation Service are completing right-of-way and design studies for the first phase of the project, which includes the storage pond area immediately south of the proposed action. Design studies include plans dealing with revegetation and landscaping, fish and wild- life enhancement and passive recreation development, all intended to promote the storage pond area as a viable wetland marsh and wildlife habitat offsetting the adverse impacts of channel construction in the Renton area. The riparian "edge" between the storage pond and Black River woods has been identified as a significant element, important in its unaltered form, for the habitat and wildlife potential of the storage pond to realize its maximum potential . The final EIS and future site plans should acknowledge the significance of the Springbrook Creek riparian edge and should discuss what measures are proposed to minimize adverse affects that would compromise enhancement plans for the storage pond area. Additional Studies and Analysis The draft EIS indicates that future environmental and economic consequences —36— Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 2 of the proposed development will be addressed in supplementary plans and studies. These additional studies are noted throughout the draft statement and include detailed site plans, additional environmental documents, economic analyses of costs and revenues accruing to Renton from the development, groundwater and soils studies, transportation and traffic analyses and a subsurface coring program to determine if ar- chaeological significant resources exist on the site. The process and schedule for conducting these studies and their relationship to the current EIS and future actions by the City of Renton on the project 2 need to be more clearly outlined in the final statement. Based on the number of additional studies and the significance of their scope, we feel the rezone decision should be not be made until these analyses are substantially completed. Public Acquisition of Black River Woods Site The EIS has understated the nu action alternative and potential for e public acquisition of the site, suggesting that because of the high I, market value of the property and its designation in the comprehensive plan for manufacturing park use the feasibility is unlikely. Current 3 studies underway as part of a County-wide parks and open space bond program have recommended the Black River woods property as the third highest priority wetland for acquisition under the bond program. The site was originally recommended to the parks bond program by the City of Renton. It is expected the bond issue will be presented for voter approval in 1982 with funds potentially available later in the year for site acqui- sition. Public acquisition of the site is. a potential alternative which should be developed more comprehensively in the final EIS including a detailed evaluation contrasting the benefits and impacts of such an al- ternative with other development alternatives. Balance Goals for Resource Protection and Economic Development The proposed action and alternatives 1 and 2 which require removal of from 67 to 80 percent of the riparian forest are inconsistent with many of the environmental , open space and resource preservation objectives of the City's recently adopted Comprehensive Plan--Policy Statement. Miti- gation measures proposed to offset these adverse impacts are generally limited to saving of significant trees and vegetation in undefined greenbelt areas, implementation of a master landscape plan, and preservation of vegetation in a 50 foot corridor along the Black River channel . We do not feel these measures compensate for the detrimental impacts the proposed action will have on the riparian forest which is acknow- ledged in the EIS as unique, rare and the best remaining climax -37 ' Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 3 riparian forest in the Seattle area. The final EIS should clearly discuss how the City's goals and objectives for protection and preservation of 4 unique natural resources have been balanced with goals for economic development. SPECIFIC COMMENTS pg. xiii The conceptual site plan should be corrected to show the flood storage pond upstream of the P-1 pump plant in its present design configuration. Preliminary land rights maps, including 5 proposed spoil disposal areas, are available from the Renton Watershed Office of the Soil Conservation Service. pg. 9 Park and recreation impacts fail to note the substantial re- I] (9 creation demand which will be created by the projected 4,100 employees who wi77 work at the business park. pg. 19 The statement does not reference the Renton Parks and Recreation Plan which cites the Black River Woods as "potential wetland" 7 or the Renton Wetlands Report which describes in detail the unique ecological significance of the Black River woods. pg. 48 The draft EIS notes that up to 70 percent of the surface top soils will be displaced or covered by landfill as a result of g the development. The final statement should discuss opportunities for utilizing topsoils in landscaping and berming and the potential for removing and stockpiling topsoil resources prior to landfilling the site. Low slope gradients to not guarantee that erosion will be minimal during disruptive e:._avation, filling and construction activities. Erosion and sedimentation control plans should be prepared for 9 the development, particularily due to the close proximity of the site to the Black River channel and Springbrook Creek. _ pg. 55 The East Side Watershed project does not require that surface runoff be removed from the site as quickly as possible. Runoff controls are regulated by the City of Renton which re- quire stormwaters to be retained on-site and released at a to natural rate incorporating natural drainage features (pg. 22) . The final EIS should contrast the trade-offs between retaining runoff on-site in retention ponds which could be developed as site amenities and piped stormwater systems discharging directly — to receiving waters as proposed for the project. pg. 57 State Flood Control regulations do not require that lands in floodplain areas be filled to accomplish flood protection, only 11 that development be floodproofed above future flooding elevations. -39- Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 4 Landfill has been the conventional method of floodproofing in the Green River Valley however, other alternatives are available. pg. 60 The vegetation map is very general and not completely consis- tent with the Renton Wetlands report and other existing field i inventories. Further we do not agree that trees in this area will tolerate a heavy layer of crushed rock and resulting soil compaction. Tree inventories should be done in the context of site and open space planning, considering opportunities to mass greenbelt areas around important trees and other significant vegetation i3 or wetland areas. Saving individual trees without attendant plant and soil support systems will not enhance the surviv- ability of the trees or their significance as part of the overall site plan. pg. 81a Access to Monster Road to the west via a bridge across the pump- ing plant outlet channel may result in a hazardous and ineffi- cient intersection without substantial improvements to Monster Road. Although the EIS suggests that Monster Road should be upgraded, it should go on to discuss the specific improvements proposed, a schedule for their implementation and how these improvements will be funded. The statement suggests an alternative westerly access from the Black River site by extending the west perimeter road in Earlington Park to the north. Such an extention would appear to require a crossl"g of the planned flood storage pond upstream of the P-1 pumping plant which would be inconsistent with pro- grams under study to enhance the storage pond for wildlife and t4 recreation purposes. The final EIS should clearly document the need under any circumstances for a westerly access from the site particularily for site plans which would concentrate development on the eastern part of the site. pg. 82 The mitigating measures proposed under fire s rvices do not deal with the impacts and concerns expressed by th Fire Marshall in is Appendix D; specifically, that "further develo ment in this area should be limited until such time as improvements can be made to provide timely first response capabilities." pg. 85 Field inventories ari recreation analysis currently being con- ducted for the East Aide Project have not concluded that heavy vegetation on the Black River woods site preclude opportunities for passive forms of recreation. To the contrary, the site is seen to have outstanding potential for scientific, educational and interpretive forms of recreation with very minor site alter- ations to improve access. -39- Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 5 Conceptual recreation plans for the East Side Project will be completed later this year. A significant component of these plans will be recreation guidelines dealing with the relation- ship of the East Side project rights-of-way with other adjacent 17 park and open spaces as well as trail linkages between Green River parks and other facilities. Trail corridors through the Black Ri""er woods and Earlington Park areas will be more definitive at that '.ime and hopefully can be incorporated into site development plans. pg. 88 The term "wetland treatment" needs additional definition. ' • Discharging storm drainage immediately into the Black River channel where residence time in a wetland environment may. . !S tend to enhance; the quality of the water leaving the channel should be compared with the effect such discharges will have on the health and ecological viability of the wetland. — pg. 109 Tables showing acreages for different uses and percentages of expected site coverage for these uses under the several r9 alternatives are very confusing and not consistent with textual descriptions of the alternatives describing how much of the site will be developed and how much will be left in open space. Further, these acreages and percentages are not consistent zo with one another throughout much of the EIS (e.g. , pg. 2, pg. 15 and pg. 55). The concentrated development alternative may not result in reduced building space and profitability if transfer of Z� development credits concept is applied. Alternative 2 should be expanded or another alternative should be developed to discuss such an option. Thank you for the opportunity to review the statement.

Pla::.ling Division • HR:le cc: Bob Edmundson, County SEPA Coordinator Herb Young, Surface Water Management -an- ^ -I Response to Comments from the King. County Department of Planning • and Community Development • • Comment Number.: 1 The conceptual site plan for the proposed rezone action has indicated that a 50-150, foot buffer preserved from development would be maintained along the southern property. line, which would. ensure that the valuable Springbrook Creek riparian edge would remain undisturbed. Also, see corn- ment 1 on page 19 of this EIS. Comment Number: 2 This Draft and Final EIS are intended to address the environmental impacts of the proposed rezone and the total proposal. Development parameters have been. assumed to permit reasonable. analysis of impacts 'which may occur as a result of development, although specific development plans have not been developed. Specific site plans and detailed economic and groundwater anal- yses, as well as tree inventories, and traffic and parking data will be developed if and when site specific development plans are proposed. The scheduling for the subsurface coring program will be decided by the City of Renton Environmental Review Committee. As noted in response to comment number 1, page 14, establishing the propriety of a rezone .proposal lies with the proponent. If the support provided by the applicant and evaluated for its environmental impacts herein are insuf- ficient, the proposal may be modified or rejected. Comment Number: 3 According to Jeanette Veasey of the King County Parks Planning Department, the King County Parks and Open Space General Obligation Bond Proposal is tentatively scheduled to be placed on the ballot in Fall of 1982. However, Ms. Veasey indicated that the riparian forest on the site is not included in .the acreage to be considered for acquisition. Comment Number: 4 In as much as 78% of riparian forest will be removed, the proposal is not consistent with the Balanced Development Objective. The proposal is gener- ally a tradeoff between private gain as well as additional commercial and -41- industrial facilities for the city and the transformation of a natural area. This tradeoff will be evaluated during consideration of the rezone proposal and at further points in the review of specific site plans. Comment Number: 5 Please refer to the conceptual site plan on page viii of the Final EIS for graphic depiction of the proposed P-1 storage pond in relation to the • site. Comment Number: 6 To reflect the concern raised in the letter from the King County Planning Division, the following information is hereby inserted in the discussion • of "Parks and Recreation - Impacts," on.pages 9 and 85 of the Draft EIS, as follows: "An increase in demand for recreational outlets will be created on .the site with the addition of approxmiately 4,100 em- ployees." According to Mr. John Webley, City of Renton Parks' and Recreation Director, there is no accepted set of standards for determining park and recreation facility demand based upon projected employment. However, at the time specific site plans, are developed, the proponent will work with the City of Renton Park and Recreation Department to develop on-site recreational facilities in order, to mitigate demand generated by the proposed develop- ment for existing off-site recreational facilities. (Source: Telephone I_ conversation with Mr.. John Webley, Director. of Parks and Recreation for the City of Renton, March 11, 1982.) . Comment Number: 7 For a discussion of the Renton Wetlands Report please refer to the response to comment 8, letter from the U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation Service on page 11 of the Final EIS. The following discussion of the City of Renton Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Plan is hereby inserted into the Draft EIS on page 44 as follows: ; -42- "This document contains an inventory and evaluation of existing recreation condi- tions by geographical area, as well as recommendations for future acquisition and development of parklands. Specific to the subject proposal, a graphic on page G-15 of the report indicates that a portion of the subject site is desig- nated for acquisition as wetlands. On page H-1 of the Plan, the Summary of Recommended Acquisition Priorities ranks wetland acuqisition as the fourth prior- ity. According to the Plan, $400,000 was budgeted for wetland acquisition for 1980. None of the budgeted funds have been allo- cated to purchase of the Black River forest. " Comment Number: 8 According to the project soils engineer, the topsoil on the site is intended to remain to serve as a mat separating the fill and construction machinery from the silty fine sand underneath, which, if disturbed, would turn to unsupporting mud. Comment Number: 9 On pages 3 and 56 of the Draft EIS, it is suggested that temporary storm water detention and settling facilities be installed during the construction period to collect silt and minimize turbidity. This mi- tigation may be required as a condition of project approval, in which case, the developer will install the facilities. This EIS has addressed the impacts of the rezone of the site from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) . When specific development plans are proposed, supplemental environmental analysis may be required in accord with the SEPA guidelines. At such time, engineering information and details re- sonable related to the proposal's definiteness will be prepared. Comment Number: 10 It is the intention of the designers of the East Side Drainage Project and consistent with the City of Renton policy that storm water runoff be discharged from the site to the P-1 pump station as quickly as pos- sible before the peak flow from upstream reaches it. The proximity of the subject property to the P-1 Channel precludes the need for on-site -41- storm water detention, subject to previously discussed provisions to insure discharge water quality. Comment Number: 11 Comments noted. Comment Number: 12 • A review has been made of the various existing studies of the vegetative character of the subject property and it was concluded that the discrep- ancies between them are not of sufficient magnitude to affect the con- clusions respectively drawn. If rezoning of the site is granted, more specific analysis will be provided regarding the compatibility of the riparian vegetation' with the precise development proposal. Comment Number: 13 As indicated in the response to comment 2, above, when specific site devel- opment plans are proposed following granting of the rezone, then supple- mental environmental analyses, including a tree inventory, may be required by the Renton Planning Department pursuant to the SEPA Guidelines. -44- Comment Number: 14 • It is intended that Monster Road be improved to a minimum two-lane • • roadway with no parking. Right-of-way should be retained in areas where there are existing or possible intersections with driveways and/ . or streets to permit the addition of auxiliary turning lanes where traffic volumes warrent. - The funding for any of the improvements outlined is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. The costs of improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should be allocated in proportion to the peak hour traffic volumes generated by this proposal compared with the peak hour traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion .to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development potentials for this and other parcels in the area) , it is impractical to specify a precise proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more re fined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic .analysis and traffic assignment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs.- The westerly connection could divert up to 25 percent of the traffic generated by the Black River Office Park and a like percentage of the traffic generated by Earlington Park. This mitigating measure is recom- mended since diversion of travel to the west would tend to slow down traffic growth on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way. Such an improve- ment would simply decrease the length of the peak period in the vicinity of the project. This improvement would not eliminate nor result in an improved level of service on these routes since conditions already operate at LOS E (capacity) . If full development of the site is provided for in the zoning process, the westerly access will he required hy the Phase I site development. Initial construction would consist of 2 travel lanes with the remaining improvements accomplished during Phase 2. • -45- Comment Number: 15 Please refer to the added mitigation to offset fire protection impacts, stated as the response to comment 1, letter from the City of Renton Fire Marshall, on page .49 of the Final EIS. Comment Number: 16 To reflect the concerns of the King County Planning Division response • letter, the final sentence of the discussion of "Parks and Recreation - Existing Conditions," on page 85 of the Draft EIS, is hereby revised to read as follows: "The site is presently heavily vegetated, which precludes any opportunity for trad- itional forms of active recreation, but would support scientific, education and interpretative forms of passive recreation with minor site'. alteration to improve access." ' Comment Number: 17 ; Comment noted. Comment Number: 18 Please refer to the response to comment. 5, letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, on page 6,, and U.S. Department of Interior comment 3,-page 19 of the Final EIS. Comment Number: 19 A comparative review of the information contained within the text of the alternatives discussion on pages 109-111 and. that on Table 10 on page 112 of the Draft EIS does reveal discrepancies between them. To correct the inaccuracies, the text of the respective alternatives is hereby revised to reflect the percentages listed on Table 10 entitled "Comparative Analyses of Alternatives." -46- • Comment Number: 20. To correct the inaccuracies in open -space and riparian forest calculations the following revisions are hereby made: The. initial sentence on page 2 li of the Draft EIS is revised to read as follows: "Development of the proposal will necessi- -i tate removal of 46.11 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site." Also, the sentence describing "Flora - Unavoidable Adverse Environmental iI Impacts," on page 15 of the Draft EIS is hereby revised to read as follows: "About 77 percent of the natural riparian vegetation on the site would be removed." This impact would be partially offset by the. introduction of landscaping on the project site. • Comment Number: 21 An additional alternative depicting concentrated development has been included in this Final EIS, -as depicted on the conceptual site plan on the following page. Project design would include the replace- ment of scattered smaller structures with three larger, 6 to 10 story structures. The height would be determined in part by the adequate ratio of parking which could be installed on the site with this alternative. This alternative would result in 29% of the site being developed with 24.7 acres (42%) of the riparian forest preserved from development. The largest nodes of preserved riparian forest vege- tation are illustrated on the site plan. These would include areas of : Node A = 9 acres Node B = 6 acres Node C = 5 acres The remaining 4.7 acres are included in smaller lineal connections between the more prominant nodal areas. The feasibility of this alter- native depends upon future construction costs and market conditions. -46a- j 1 1 • . . • BLACK __ RIVER OFFICE PARK RIM THORPE AND ASSOCIATES Imo,;. \ %z I .. .. ■ o _ .. eo.s^. 0100 _ - 400 _ ._ 800 NORTH .4,„„So ..-iii , IV • A °i t=•°.b� ii: �a Imo_ .i:O ore �e c.

Its impact is very similes_ to that of the Earlington Park Project. To look at one requires considering the overall effect of the total development in the area and its impact on present city services. The mitigating measures expressed on page 82 do not demonstrate how the developer plans to provide the necessary fire services for the area. Our concerns are in regard to site access and timely response to the area. The present site access is limited to essentially a one-way response from the main station at South 2nd and Mill Ave So.. It cannot be assumed that the response will always come from the station, since many times the equipment is in the district on inspection and detail. Access to the proposed development from the north is restricted by nat- ural and man-made barriers. The steep hillside and railroad right-of-way prohibit travel directly from the north. Trucks on detail in the north would have to back- track through Renton in the event of an alarm.in a building located in this de- velopment. The private fire protection proposed is an important aspect of the project but it cannot completely substitute for a ,basic fire response. The need for addition- al fire facilities located in the valley presents itself with this development. The purpose of the SW 19th and Lind Ave S. W. side was dedicated just for this purpose. Mitigation of the response time problem.could be accomplished by the construction of a station at that site, providing an engine company staffed on a 24-hour basis with 3 personnel. . Consideration should be given now to providing a method of funding and timetable nstruction of this station. f 4. d./- 7 /JAMES F. MATTHEW' Fire Marshal • JFM/wp -48- Response to Comment from the City of Renton 'Fire 'Marshall Comment Number: 1 It is recognized that the site is relatively isolated with access generally limited to emergency response from the east. As a result, consideration should be given to methods of reducing the fire hazards and life safety exposure. This can include locating a new station in closer proximity to the site, reducing the overall development density and allocating allowable development only to those areas of the site within a five minute response distance from the current stations. Funding for new fire station capital costs will be borne in part by the developer. Comment Number: 2 The project is proposed to be constructed in two phases with Phase 1 accessed by a single road connecting to the road system to serve the, proposed Earlington Park development adjacent to the south of the site. Phase 2, on the western portion of the site, will connect to the Phase 1 road system and also be served by a secondary access to Monster Road across the P-1 - drainage channel. Thus, at project completion, the total site would be served by roads extending to both the east and west. Also, please refer to the response to comment 1, above. 49 OF o THE CITY OF RENTON U 4/ Z MUNICIPAL BUILDING 200 MILL AVE.SO. RENTON,WASH.98055 _ �h 2 NAL • BARBARA Y. 'SHINPOCH. MAYOR o POLICE DEPARTMENT o HUGH R.DARBY, CHIEF A Q` 0,91TzO soleMO� MEMORANDUM March 31 , 1981 TO: Dave Clemons, Planning Department • FROM: Lt. Don Persson SUBJECT: BLACK. RIVER OFFICE PARK This development will have an impact on police services in three area that are not adequately addressed in the preliminary impact statement. They are: (1 ) Traffic Problems Every roadway into the area is currently operating at its peak level . The addition of phase one of this project without the completion of the entire roadway system needed for both phase one and two would put a burden on the roadway system that would generate numerous traffic collisions and traffic tie-ups. This would dictate additional traffic enforcement and traffic accident enforcement in the area that would put an additional burden on the Renton Police Department Traffic Division. Thus, it is imperative that the entire roadway system for both phase one and phase tto be built prior to any construction. (2) Police Services Since the initial questions were asked ', the police department in regards to the impact of this development, several other projects within the city have been started or completed. Due to these projects, this development will have a major impact that cannot be adequately handled without some mitigating measures such as: (1) all buildings in the area be prewired for intrusion alarms; (2) exterior lighting be placed so it shines in on the building rather than being placed on the building shining outward. Exterior lighting, when placed on the side of a building so that it shines outward blinds the police officer who has to respond to the business during the hours of darkness. (3) dead bolts installed on all doors; (4) large, easily readable building numbers on all buildings; (5) no excavation work on Saturdays or Sundays unless the contractor hires an offduty Renton Police officer -50- MEMORANDUM - Page 2 to monitor the overweight and tracking violations that are generated from this type of operatio9. (3) Noise The department's concern on noise generated from this type project is in two areas. (1) Construction Noise. The hours of construction should be regulated from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday through Friday, 10:00 to 4:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays. Further, the construction, workers should not be allowed to play their stereo systems on the job site as they try to have their stereo systems louder than the construction equipment, which generates numerous complaints from residents in the area.And this particular area will be a problem due to its closeness to Burlington Hill and the new housing development being built behind Sears.(2) Railroad crossings should - be of the new rubber type to reduce the amount of noise when cars and trucks pass over the crossings late at night. DRP:bf -51- Response to Comments from the City of Renton Police-Department Comment Number: 1 It is acknowledged that much of the road system currently operates at capacity. However, not all intersections nor all road sections operate at this level. It is also acknowledged that there is likely to be an increase in the number of accidents resulting from the in-. •• creased traffic volume that would be generated by this and other projects in the vicinity. While it is a general rule that the traffic accident rate increases once a roadway operates at or beyond capacity, the traffic accident history in the vicinity of the project does not support this generalization. Based on several years of traffic accident history data, the traffic accident rate has been equal to or less than the rate of increase in traffic volume. The creation of the road system west of the site is not expected to meas- urably reduce the number of accidents that would occur as a result of this project; rather, it. will simply shift the location of where _ those accidents might occur. As stated in the Traffic Analysis in Appendix B of the Final EIS, because many of the intersections in the site vicinity currently operate at capacity and because relatively little can be done to increase the capacity of these intersections and/or freeway, there will be several impacts associated with this or any new development in Renton: •Capacity conditions at key locations will extend over longer periods of time such that hour-long capacity conditions today may extend for more than one hour in the future. •People will seek alternative routes to avoid congestion. •Some people may shift their mode of travel to transit or may choose to carpool, vanpool, or fleet ride to and from work. -52- Recommended mitigations for congestion are described in the discussion of "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," on pages 7-8 and 81a of the Draft EIS. In addition, the following miti- gation is hereby added to the list on pages 7 and 8 of the Final EIS as follows: •The City could encourage the use of alternative' modes of transportation by installing paid parking areas, reducing the parking supply, and designating a portion of the lot for carpool use." The developer shall provide an operational traffic analysis for each phase of development when specific site plans are available. As indicated on page 2 of the Traffic Analysis in Appendix B of this Final EIS, during Phase 1 all project traffic .will enter and exit via the Earlington Park development to the south. It is, there- % fore, not considered necessary to construct the complete roadway system prior to construction of Phase 1 of the proposed development. The developer will participate in street and intersection improvements, • including the intersection of Monster Road and Sunset Boulevard, Monster Road and the roadway to be constructed along the western peri- meter of the Earlington Park development, paralleling the alignment of the proposed Valley Parkway. There may be other traffic operation improvements which may be made at some intersections in the vicinity of the project. However, such detailed improvements can not be reliably forecast because of the wide range of development potentials for the project. Such detailed analysis will be provided at the time a more specific proposal is developed. Please refer to the letter from Mr. Richard Houghton, Renton Public Works Director, on the final page of. this Final EIS. -53- • Comment Number: 2 To reflect the concerns of the Police Department comment letter, the lists of mitigations regarding police protection on pages 8-9 and 83-84 of the Draft EIS are hereby expanded to include the following: ". - All doors should be equipped with dead bolt locks. - All buildings should be prewired for intrusion alarms. - Indirect exterior building lighting should. be utilized. - Large, easily-read numbers should be placed on all buildings. - No excavation work should be conducted on the weekends." • Comment Number: 3 The suggested mitigations involving construction hours and rubber- ized railroad crossings have been included already on pages 5 and 72-73 of the Draft EIS. To reflect the concerns of the Police Department comment letter, the following mitigation is hereby added to the lists on pages 5 and 73 of the Draft EIS: " - The volume of radios and stereo systems utilized by construction workers should be restricted to a level which does not intrude upon nearby resid- ential uses." -53a- WRITTEN COMMENTS FROM NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY GROUPS, AND OTHER INTERESTED PRIVATE PARTIES AND RESPONSES TO COMMENTS ,:. 1: .

Municipal Building . 200 Mill Ave. So. Renton, Wa. 98055 Dear Mr. Clements, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the DEIS for the Black River Office Park. On behalf of Seattle Audubon, I must say it was discouraging to see this document so soon after Renton' s very commendable Wetlands Study, and its rec- ommendations. More on this later in the letter. The Black River Office Park DEIS is generally clearly written and adequate in meeting SEPA guidelines, however, two il parts of the statement should be strengthened. In the alter- native section, alternative two of a lower intensity develop- f ment is hardly analyzed at all. Certainly some pros and cons of . such an alternative' development scheme should be addressed. Secondly, the hydrologic analysis leaves many questions unan- _, swered. . Where does' the water in the Black River forest come from--overflow of the Black River channel-Springbrook Creek, 2 . . groundwater seepage, or gravity flow from Earlington Hill to the 1 north? What is the yearly or seasonal fluctuation of water levels on various parts of the site? At the very least some — site testing as included in Appendix B should have been dis- cussed,. and such sites monit..red over several months ' time. The property is an importnnt wetland which providers consider- able flood storage, and the riparian forest species (notably the Oregon Ash and Black Cottonwood) are dependent on high — water levels for, most of the year. Although the idea of leaving some of the site undisturbed is a good one,; it is very unlikely such a small tract (13 acres) . will survive as riparian forest. On page 19 of the Renton 3 Wetlands Study, it states, " . . .at least 40 acres of wetland in one contiguous block would have to be retained in its natural con- dition in order for. the riparian forest to continue as a func- tioning habitat. " If a large part of the natural wetland is — filled, then what remains will slowly but surely die off. To preserve the uniqueness of the riparian forest,• the site itself must be mostly preserved. The proposed re-zone of the site to M-P would contradict most of the natural, systems goals of the 1981 Renton Policy 1 -54- 2. Element (see pp.19-2' in tn. EIS) . Furthermore, the Black River woods were identified in the Renton Wetlands Study as the number one wetland area for preservation. The woods have a tremendous present value for flood storage and as a green- 4 belt or urban separator. They provide homes and resting places for many wildlife species, and serve as a close-in • "outdoor laboratory" for education and scientific study.. Surely greater Seattle will need more offices and busi- — ness parks, but at what price? On page 102 the EIS preparers. admit,,"Implementation of the proposed project will convert the best remaining riparian forest in the Seattle area to a warehousing/office park.

It is acknowledged, however, that about 1,000 acres in Renton presently zoned for Manufacturing Park already.feature or are currently developing street access and utilities necessary for industrial devel- opment of this type. As stated on page 97 of the Draft EIS, the site is unique as one of two sites in the Valley equipped with reciprocal switching from two railroad lines without penalty to the shipper, in most cases. The light warehousing use proposed for the site would take advantage of this feature. Alternative rail-served sites also exist in other South King County areas.

Box 772, Kent, Wash. 98031 -';:. -- +-�— May 26, 1981 Mr. navid Clemens, Acting Planning Director City of Renton Planning Department Municipal Building 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 I have reviewed the Black River Office Park DEIS •and I am primarily con- cerned about the impact of this project on a unique wildlife habitat. I am also concerned about the effects on traffic of this gevelopment and others planned for this area. The Black River Office Park is to be built on a 70 acre parcel that is a unique example of a climax riparian forest. According to the City of Renton Wetland Study (February, 1981), the Black River Forest is "the most valuable wetland within the City".(Pg. 11) According to the DEIS (pg. 63) "this tract -- of wetland remains for both wildlife and plants an especially large, mature and varied habitat, considering its urban location. As such, it is one of the only habitats suitable for certain species in the Seattle metropolitan area." Admittedly the proposed development will attempt to leave 22% of the native vegetation in large areas, particularly along the Black River. But, according to the informationon page 61 of the DEIS, the trees in this area areaall shallow rooted and will not survive the soil compaction from heavy traffic or paving. These trees areaalso susceptible to wind damage, and the thinning and clearing during development will magnify the wind damage problem. It seems clear that the efforts to mitigate the impacts of development on the Black River Forest are of questionable effectiveness. Any development on this site will destroy a unique and irreplaceable habitat, and there is no way to mitigate its loss. The impact of the area's transportation system is clearly negative. The development will generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day in an area where the LOS is E to F at the present time. (At no point in this DEIS did I see LOS ratings for the a 'fected arterials and intersections. My information comes from the Earlington Park DEIS.) When the traffic from Z this project is combined with that of other developments in the area, the increase in truck and automobile traffic will be substantial. People will surely seek alternative routes to avoid congestion, but the aternatives in this area are few. Unfortunately, there is little that can realistically be done to improve the capacity of efficiency of I-405, Grady Way, or Rainier Avenue. The already severe congestion will get worse. - -58- • • Black River Rorest Office Park DEIS Page 2 GREEN RIVER STUDY GROUP P.O.

Impact Statement Dear Mr. Clemens: This letter will serve as the comments of our client, the Duwamish Indian Tribe on the Black River Environ- mental Draft Impact Statement. Our client' s primary concern regarding the rezone and ultimate development of the office park and rail-served warehouse is the impact such use will have on the Indian archaeological sites in that location. The assessment done by the Office of Public Archaeology of the University of Washington appended to the draft EIS is an excellent first step toward proper protection of this property. It is our position, however, that further studies need be done as recommended by the Office of Public Archaeology prior to the final EIS and, of course, prior- to the actual rezone. Unless full information is obtained on this issue, a final EIS would never be determined adequate under state law. The Washington Supreme Court has recognized the adoption of the State Environmental Property Act (SEPA) as "an attempt by the people to shape their future environment by deliberation, not default. " Stempel v. Department of Water Resources, 82 Wn.2d 109, 118, 508 P.2d 166 (1973) . SEPA, therefore, "mandates governmental evaluation of environ- mental factors when choices are still available" . Eastlake Community Council v. Roanoke Assoc. , 82 Wn.2d 475, 496, 513 P. 2d 36 (1973) . -61- Mr. David Clemens May 28, 1981 Page Two C Further stressing the importance and function of this informational purpose, the Supreme Court has declared: The clear mandate of SEPA, and the purpose behind the environmental impact statement requirement, is consideration of environmental values based on full information before a decision is made . . . one of the purposes of this complete information requirement is to help the agency decide what protective conditions are needed. Norway Hill v. King County Council, 87 Wn.2d 267, 279, 552 P.2d 674 (1976) (emphasis in original) . We do not feel that a deferral of a full and MEW. proper analysis of this impact until the construction stage of this project is proper under the law. Case law in Washington requires full assessment of known impacts at the earliest stage possible. This rule is �m ently reasonable f. in the instant case. The City has been asked to rezone the entire site but it has the choice of rezoning just part of the property (see p. ix of EIS) . Until the actual location of archaeologiEir sites are known, the City cannot make a reasoned decision about what part of the site should be left _ in its natural state. The means for such further assessment - subsurface coring - is available now, as acknowledged by the EIS. To defer complete analysis would make the EIS inadequate and any rezone decision improper. While we focus on this particular impact, we concur with those comments which we know you will receive regarding the project's eft on the physical environment. The removal of the riparian forest, displacement of a unique wetland, and detrimental effects on groundwater and surface water quality are all significant impacts of this project which should be fully considered by the City before taking this first step of rezoning.

Box 161 Renton, Wash. 98055 `, ;; Renton, Wash. 'N ,o `/ 98055 / , Subject: EIS Proposed Black River Office Park I have read the EIS for the proposed Black River Office Park and believe that any benefits that the public might derive from this project are far out- numbered by the adverse impacts which are certain to occur. The mitigation outlined in the EIS does not show that the environmental damage can be re- duced to an acceptable level. That was the conclusion of the traffic analysis (D-8) as well as the vegetation and bird report (C-3) and the comments from the Renton Fire Marshall (D-5),. Only Alternative 3 will retain riparian forest habitat in an amount large enough to afford significant protection of its unique qualities and this altern • - ative was given little discussion.. Acquisition of this property for a public park was dismissed as unlikely, however, that remains a very viable option. The uniqueness of the Black River forest is well-recognized and the fact that the site remains high on a list of priority projects for a proposed County Parks and Open Space bond issue should not be ignored; nor have other funding altern- atives been thoroughly explored. The recent Renton Wetlands Study indicates that a minimum of 40 contiguous acres of wetland must be preserved in order for the riparian forest to retain its current habitat functions o The EIS fails to relate the probable long-term im- pacts of partial development, whatever the scale, on the ability of any preserved areas of forest to survive. Recommendations on page C-3 seem to conflict with those of the soil report which indicate that extensive filling and an extensive surface water and ground water drainage system will be necessary. The issue of water quality is licitly considerede.and cannot be isolated from that of adjacent projects, as yet uncompleted, whose runoff will also be 3 directed into the Black River channel. The ability of the small wetland area to accept and adequately treat an unlimited volume of runoff must not be assumed. _ The potential revenues to the City were cited as an economic benefit but no figures presented to show how these might offset added public costs necessitated 4 by development of this land. Is there certain funding for the major road im- provements that are discussed? Will police and fire safety be reduced in other. areas of the City? How might the proposed westerly access to this development for mitigation 5 of some traffic impacts affect preservation of the western half of the site should alternative 2 be chosen? There seems to be general agreement among the various governmental bodies that a buffer zone of 200 feet is needed to afford some protection to a river Co environment. What is the justification for this proposal's setback of 50 feet along the Black River channel? -65- Page 2 EIS response There continues to be an abundance of undeveloped valley land which is already properly zoned for industrial purposes and where improvements, includ- ing rail, already exist. The demand for rail-served warehousing can be full- -7 filled elsewhere and, in fact, is planned elsewhere including a site adjacent to the subject property. These sites sho9ld be utilized before additional lands are rezoned for the same purpose. The City's Land Use Comprehensive plan dates back to the 1960fs. Since then there have been several studies of the Black River forest which indicated its unique features as an environmentally sensitive and historical area, a fact g not earlier recognized. The new Plan revisions proposed by the Planning Com- mission for this general vicinity indicate that reduced density of development and additional greenbelt area may be more appropriate. The BIS accurately notes that this proposed rezone represents a signifi- cant change in land use--replacement of one-of-a-kind old growth riparian forest with an office park/warehouse complex now increasingly familiar in our valley. Perhaps no other area remains on the valley floor where such a rezone could effect such a profound alteration of the environment. Attempts to preserve a portion of this sensitive forest habitat are not guaranteed of success. The balance of development and preservation of open space that is sought is best achieved by allowing this property to remain a part of the open space network proposed for the valley floor.

Comment Number: 2 The discussion of "Flora - Impacts," on page 63 of the Draft EIS, which is condensed from the full discussion on page C-3 of Appendix C, does acknowledge the risk of partial development on the remainder of the riparian forest. It is .noted that gradual losses and elim- ination of certain plants and species would likely occur.

The full text of that analysis has been included in this document as Appendix A.

In addition, -67- Comment Number: 4, continued. several mitigations have been added in response to comment 2, letter from the City of Renton Police Department ( on page 53a of this docu- ment) , intended to reduce potential impacts on police protection services. Comment Number: 5 It is acknowledged that the mitigating measure to build a roadway connection to Monster Road would have some impacts on the preservation of vegetation on the western half of the site, since either a direct connection to Monster Road or the extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park would need to cross certain drainage areas and would temporarily disrupt the flow of water to vegetation in this area. The extension of roadways and utilities into the westerly portion of this site could also precipitate future development in these areas, thus reducing the size and value of the remaining riparian forest. Comment Number: 6 As stated on page 43 of the Draft EIS, the Washington State Shoreline Management Act applies to the areas 200 feet from either side of the Black River Channel, measured from the ordinary high water mark. The SMA regulations restrict the type of development permissible within certain distances from designated water bodies. However, they do not prohibit development within 200 feet of the Black River Channel. The rezone approval, Substantial Development permit (SMA regulations) and site development permit can be conditioned upon preservation of vege- tative buffers adjoining the Black River Channel. Comment Number: 7 The proposed action, which would be consistent with the land uses pro- (. posed to the south of the site, may be considered as "in-fill" growth in that it is located in close proximity to an urban center. It is acknowledged, however, that about 1,000 acres in Renton presently zoned for Manufacturing Park already feature or are currently developing street -68- Comment Number: 7, continued. access and utilities necessary for industrial development of this type. As stated on page 97 of the Draft EIS, the site is unique as one of two sites in the Valley equipped with reciprocal switching from two railroad lines without penalty to the shipper, in most cases. The light ware- housing pse proposed for the site would take advantage of this feature. Comment Number: 8 Please refer to the response to comment 8, letter from the U.S.D.A. Soil Coservation District, on page 11 of the Final EIS for a discussion of the City of Renton Wetlands Report. The study has been accepted as a technical document and is awaiting review by the Planning Commission. It has not been adopted as policy by the City Council. As noted in the Draft EIS on pages 19 - 42, the proposal is consistent with the City of Renton Comprehensive Plan Map. However., the proposed development is not in conformance with policies regarding the natural environment (i.e. wetlands, flora, fauna, and open space) .

Black River Office Park Expanded Traffic Analysis C. Correspondence from the Renton Public Works Director D. Black River Office Park Drainage Analysis Supplement APPENDIX A EFFECTS ON COMBINED WETLAND TREATMENT OF STORM RUNOFF DISCHARGE FROM BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK, EARLINGTON PARK, AND EARLINGTON WOODS INTRODUCTION 1I , The information provided in this report is in response to comments received on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Black River Office Park. The lead agency, the City of Renton, requested the project sponsor, Alterra Corporation, provide additional information on the water quality impacts attributable to the project. Specifically, the Environmental Review Committee requested additional study regarding the ". . .ability of the Black River channel to handle runoff from this project in light of Earlington Park and other developments in the vicinity while maintaining a 'wetland treatment' ." DESCRIPTION OF ANALYSIS In the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment (Entranco, 1981) , it was determined that the old Black River channel could provide sufficient wetland treatment for stormwater runoff from Earlington Park and Earlington Industrial Park for a one-year storm. To determine the impact of runoff from the Black River Office Park development, runoff from the total area discharging into the Black River channel was calculated to determine the effect of combined discharge on wetland treatment. The total drainage area includes Earlington Park, Black River Office Park, Earlington Woods PUD, and a portion of the hillside north of the Black River Office Park. The total drainage area for specific land uses was calculated and runoff coefficients were determined. The peak runoff rate was then calculated using the rational method. The total peak runoff for a one-year storm for proposed (post- development) land use conditions was determined to be 110 cfs. 1 . l SUMMARY OF EARLINGTON PARK WATER QUALITY IMPACT ASSESSMENT The existing water, quality in the Black River watershed and the impacts of stormwater runoff and mitigative measures have been thoroughly analyzed and discussed in the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment by Entranco Engineers. (A copy of the assessment is included by reference. ) The following conclusions can be drawn from the Entranco report: - 1 . Existing water quality in Springbrook Creek is relatively poor and only slightly better than typical stormwater runoff quality. Springbrook Creek exceeds water quality standards for dissolved oxygen, total • coliforms, nitrate, ammonia, and phosphorus. J 2. Existing poor water quality in Springbrook Creek is attributable to 1 stormwater discharge from existing commercial , industrial , and residential land uses upstream in the watershed. 3. The existing old Black River channel is providing wetland treatment (physical , chemical , and biological removal of pollutants); for stormwater discharging from the existing 60-inch storm sewer outfall . The concentration of most pollutants is lower in wetland-treated runoff than —' in Springbrook Creek. 4. The quality of wetlands in the old Black River channel has been degraded by the present discharge of storm runoff. Most notable are accumulations of floating oil and grease and other debris. 5. Under existing conditions, the old Black River channel possesses little, if any, value as fish rearing or spawning habitat. Downstream and adjacent upstream segments of Springbrook Creek similarly provide little or no value as spawning and/or rearing habitat for anadromous fish jam, species and are therefore of value only for anadromous fish passage. Other system characteristics, particularly the P-1 pump station, are likely to be more limiting to fish passage than water quality. 2 6. Previous work by Entr::Anco Engineers and others has demonstrated that significant fractions (60 to 95 percent) of stormwater pollutants are contained in suspended and settleable forms that are potentially treatable by sedimentation. 7 . Use of the old Black' River channel wetlands would provide sedimentation treatment as well asjchemical and biological removal of stormwater pollutants from existing and post-development runoff (Earlington Park and Earlington Industrial Park) from stormflows equal to or less than the estimated annual discharge rate of 45 (cubic feet per second) cfs. APWA criteria for sedimentation basin design indicate that 2,030 square feet of sedimentation area are required for each cfs of stormwater discharge to remove particles ;(and associated pollutants) of 10 microns and larger. The old Black River 'channel occupies 97,500 square feet of surface area and actually exceeds1 the surface area (91,350 square feet) necessary to provide the proposed level of, treatment. 8. Gabions should be installed in the old Black River channel to: (a) provide dead storage; (b) increase surface area of wetland contact; (c) reduce hydraulic; scouring during storm events; (d) provide for primary sedimentation separation; and (e) provide for accidental spill control . 9. The provision of wetland treatment as proposed, in conjunction with oil and grease separators and periodic street sweeping, should result in sufficient water quality treatment such that no significant impacts to Springbrook Creek will occur. The basis for this conclusion is derived from the fact that: (a) Springbrook Creek water quality is already very poor; (b) the post-development discharge from the project site will represent less than 6 percent of flow in- Springbrook Creek; and (c) wetland treatment is expected to provide water quality superior to water quality in Springbrook Creek. 3 The following assumptions and limitations should be considered 'in reviewing this water quality impact analysis: i 1 . According to DOE water quality regulations, existing water quality represents the water quality standard in those circumstances where existing water quality exceeds the designated water quality standard. 2. DOE water quality regulations contain a provision for nondegradation of existing water quality. 3. It is assumed that design criteria for water quality treatment facilities can be limited to consideration of the annual discharge rate and that it is reasonable not to provide the same high level of treatment for larger storms of lesser frequency (5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year, design storms) . In this respect, water quality design criteria are intended to provide treatment for the majority of storm volume and not for maximum I i discharge rate. 4. It is possible that pollutants that accumulate during periods of low flow. (annual discharge rate and lower flows) may be flushed from the system during periods of high flow (storm flows exceeding annual discharge rate) . Provisions of gabions and dead storage, and the presence of wetland vegetation, should substantially reduce the probability of such flushing. 5. It is essential that all runoff be discharged to the upstream end of the old Black River channel . 4 INFLUENCE ON WETLAND TREATMENT OF ADDITIONAL RUNOFF FROM BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK AND EARLINGTON WOODS PUD As indicated above, the combined post-development runoff from the Black River Office Park, Earlington Woods PUD, Earlington Park, and Earlington Industrial Park has been estimated at 110 cfs for a one-year storm. The old Black River channel provides approximately 90,000 square feet of wetland treatment area. As shown in Figure 1, this wetland area will remove all particles approximately 16 microns in diameter or greater for the design discharge rate of 110 cfs. Treatment for smaller streamflows will be greater and will remove particles smaller than 16 microns. Entranco Engineers (1980) has reported that significant quantities of most stormwater pollutants are contained in the suspended and settleable solids fractions. These data provide the rationale for physical stormwater treatment and indicate that as much as 60 to 95 percent of stormwater pollutants can be treated by physical removal of suspended and settleable solids. In a study of street surface runoff (Sarter, 1975) , it was found that, with the exception of phosphorus and nitrogen, 70 percent of the pollutants measured (total solids, volatile solids, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, Kjeldahl nitrogen, nitrates, phosphates, total heavy metals, and total pesticides) were contained in particles 43 microns in diameter and larger (44 percent for phosphates) . Therefore, the treatment available in the old Black River channel is 'sufficient to remove more than 70 percent of most pollutants. Ongoing research being carried out by the University of Washington includes observations supporting the wetland treatment concept (1981) . Although the final report has not been published, preliminary results suggest that a grass-lined channel 60 meters (197 feet) long will remove 80 to 100 percent of the initial lead concentration; the results for zinc, total suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand demonstrate similar tendencies. 5 104X ;_ .. . / ' • . • j i • ......:.:. ....i.

If this. design is used for construction, much of the old Black River channel would be eliminated and would no longer be available for wetland treatment. Although the storage pond itself would provide sedimentation treatment, this treatment would not occur prior to discharge into' Springbrook Creek. However, as shown in the • water quality assessment for Earlington Park (Entranco, 1980) ,. the existing quality of Springbrook Creek is only slightly better than anticipated runoff • quality, and it is doubtful that post-development runoff will result in any measurable increases in 'the pollutant concentrations in Springbrook Creek. CONCLUSION The old Black River channel is of sufficient area and length to be able to • provide adequate wetland treatment for the stormwater runoff from the Black River Office Park and the other developments in the vicinity. This conclusion assumes the installation of. gabion structures and implementation of supporting mitigative, measures as proposed in the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment (Entranco Engineers, 1980) , and the Black River Office Park Draft EIS (R!.W. Thorpe & Associates, 1981) . Discharge of all runoff to the upper terminus of the old Black River channel would also be required. • • LIST OF REFERENCES . American Public Works Association, 1974.

W. Thorpe and Associates 815 Seattle Tower Third & University Seattle, WA 98101 SUBJECT: BLACK RIVER REZONE Dear Ms. Krouse: Thank you for asking The TRANSPO Group to expand on our preliminary assessment of traffic conditions associated with the proposed Black River Rezone. This letter presents an estimate of the daily and eve- ping peak hour trip generation, a general estimate of travel distribution _ and and traffic assignment, a summary of anticipated traffic problems or concerns, and a list of reasonable mitigating measures. This letter also responds to comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). We have duplicated much of the information contained in our March 29, 1981 preliminary assessment to avoid cross-referencing of information and to help readers unfamiliar with the background leading to the final environ- mental impact statement a more complete understanding of the traffic issues. We might also mention that in preparing this analysis, we met with Mr. Gary Norris, Traffic Engineer, and Mr. Dick Houghton, Acting Director of Public Works to discuss the specific level of detail that would be required in this analysis. We all concluded that the description of the development proposal as expressed in the rezone application was too general for detailed traffic operations analysis to be meaningful . Thus, we agreed that this general analysis was more appropriate and at such time as a specific project proposal is defined, a more detailed traffic analysis would need to be prepared by the project sponsor. Subsequent to this meeting I spoke with Mr. David Clements, Acting Planning Director. He indicated that he needed some traffic assignment information in order to estimate air quality impacts. Project Description This analysis is based on the site plan and project description which was provided by your office. From this information, we understand the project will include about 35.58 acres of office development and about 12.09 acres of warehousing. The warehousing is proposed to be served by rail The offices could be one or two stories in height, depending on the market for office space at the time the buildings are being designed. We understand the project is proposed to be constructed in two phases with access to Phase I provided by a single road that connects to the road system that • serves the proposed Earlington Park development. The second phase, on the Twenty-three 148th Avenue Southeast •Bellevue,Washington 98007•(206) 641-3881 Ms. Deborah Krouse The November 20, 1981 TRANSPO Page 2 ghrOW western portion of the site, will connect with the Phase I road system and plans a secondary access to Monster Road across the P-1 drainage channel . Trip Generation Trip generation estimates (number of cars in and out of the development) were made using a range of assumptions regarding possible building designs and functions (e.g, one-story or two-story office buildings; office park; or general office development, etc. ) The Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual , 1979 and Arizona DOT Trip Generation Intensity Factors, 1980 were the sources of trip generation rate information (trips per 1000 square feet) . Applying these trip generation rates to the proposed development, it was found that this development could generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day (vpd) . The evening peak hour for the warehousing portion of the project generally falls slightly before the traditional 4:30 to 5:30 PM evening peak hour. Nonetheless, because the office development will comprise the majority of this proposal , a 4:30 to 5:30 PM time period was used as part of this analysis. Combined office and warehouse uses are forecasted to generate between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles per hour (vph) . Trip Distribution and Assignment The travel distribution for a development like tie Black River Office Park ' -, is largely based on the distribution of populate since a majority of the trips to and from an employment center start or end at the employee's home. This distribution needs to be tempered by other travel patterns like those associated with general business activity (e.g. , sales) and service and delivery activities. During Phase I , all traffic will enter and exit via the Earlington Park development. The majority of this traffic is expected to travel along 7th Avenue to Rainier Avenue and Lind Avenue SW (about 70 percent) , while the remainder will use Powell Avenue to gain access to Grady Way. As the access road along the alignment of Valley Parkway is built, this route will also be used by traffic just for the valley area to the south. Because construction of this road is dependent on the action of another developer, no traffic was assigned to this route. Figure 1 shows the travel assignment that is expected to occur after full development, assuming that connection with Monster Road is provided. It can be seen that a large proportion of the traffic (about 25 percent) will be using Monster Road to Sunset Boulevard where it will split with approxi- mately 15 percent traveling north to nearby residential areas and to connect with I-5. The remainder will follow Sunset Boulevard east to Rainier Avenue where traffic will split with some continuing on east and the remainder turning north on Rainier Avenue. The majority of traffic destined to the south will continue to use 7th Street, Rainier Avenue, Powell Avenue and Lind Avenue, and Grady Way as primary access routes. This assignment The Ms. Deborah Krouse TRANSPO November 20, 1981 Page 3 GrOVp reflects both daily and PM peak travel patterns. During the midday, I-405 and other major arteries are less congested than during the PM peak hour so the traffic distributions for each are slightly different. Thus, during the peak hour, travel on minor roads and on routes that may appear to be out of direction is to avoid the congestion on more major, direct routes. Like the trip generation, the travel assignment shown depicts ranges of travel volumes that could potentially use the roadway system. The project enerated traffic volumes are added to estimated 1984 traffic volumes volumes without Black River Office Park) . This shows that Sunset Boulevard east of Monster Road could carry between 2,800 and 6,600 vpd and between 400 and 950 vph during the PM peak hour. Rainier Avenue S south of Grady Way could potentially serve between 66,780 and 76,750 vpd and 6,610 to 7,400 vph during the evening rush hour. Grady Way west of Powell Street is forecasted to carry between 13,490 and 18,400 vpd and 6,160 to 7,400 vph during the evening peak hour. Impacts As you know, a display of traffic volumes alone does not give a true impres- sion of the impacts that would be created from traffic generated by a new development. Rather, traffic volumes must be examined in the context of many factors including, the street and intersection design, traffic control , and characteristics of the traffic flow. Techniques have been developed to incorporate these factors and are called level of service analysis. In urban areas these levels of service are measured at intersections. Unfor- tunately, the range of volumes that could be generated by this project is too broad to give meaningful results. Nonetheless, it is important for the City to have some feeling for the impacts that might be created.. To provide a point of reference, along Rainier Avenue the street is now or will be (before this project is built) operating at capacity (LOS E) . Likewise, some of the major intersections along Grady Way are at or near capacity. Sunset Boulevard, except for the intersection at Rainier Avenue operates above capacity (approximately LOS C) . There is some potential relief to these capacity problems with the construction of Valley Parkway. While this and other improvements like widening of Grady Way will result in some relief to the local street system, the primary traffic arteries like I-405 and Rainier, Avenue will continue to operate at capacity. Thus, even if the majority of the traffic generated by this proposal travels on routes that operate below capacity much of the volume will ultimately travel through one or more of the intersections or on a road that presently operates at capacity. As a consequence, the congestion during peak hours will become more severe resulting in more delay, assuming all drivers attempt to make their trip during the peak hour. In the last several years, other cities have experienced some of the same levels of congestion problems that now exist in Renton. Drivers have responded by modifying their travel habits to avoid this congestion by: The Ms. Deborah Krouse November 20, 1981 unIANSM Page 4 er0\ip • Changing the time they travel to and from work. This does not eliminate traffic but it spreads the peak hour over a longer period resulting in capacity conditions that may extend longer than one hour. • Change from driving alone to carpooling. • Change mode to use transit. The intersection of Monster Road and Sunset Boulevard should be upgraded to serve the increased volume and it is expected that the signal should be set into full operation in contrast to the present flashing operation. While Sunset Boulevard carries a relatively high volume of traffic, this inter- section is expected to operate at about LOS C or LOS D in 1984 with this project. Even though Sunset Boulevard is less congested than some other arterials, it does not provide a direct connection to a majority of desti- nations and it eventually intersects with more congested arterials. Thus, any advantage that can be achieved through using Sunset Boulevard as a bypass is offset by the out of direction travel and down stream congestion problems. As 'a consequence, Sunset Boulevard is not forecasted to be used to the extent that might appear appropriate at a first, cursory review. Following occupancy of Phase II , the street that would experience the largest proportional increase in traffic would be Monster Road. This road is pres- ently a very narrow winding road and has a moderate grade south of Sunset Boulevard, and has not been built to carry all of the volume that is likely to be generated by this project. The increased volume in combination with the substandard design of the road would probably contribute to an increase in the accident rate. In the evaluation of these impacts, it is very important to recognize that any new development in the City of Renton is going to have some individual or cumulative impact on the major streets in the vicinity of this project. Thus, the only way to ensure congestion levels will remain the same as they are today is to stop any and all new development or redevelopment that will add traffic to the street system. Mitigating Measures As discussed before, congestion will get worse or extend over longer time periods when this project is developed. Roads like Rainier Avenue and I-405 } } cannot be widened to increase their capacity so the impacts on these routes will be difficult to mitigate by applying traditional road construction solutions. Some road improvements that can be made include the upgrading of Monster Road to improve both horizontal and vertical alignment to eliminate I line of sight restrictions, and enhance safety. Because of the proposed The Ms. Deborah Krouse TRIANSPO November 20, 1981 Page 5 Gr®Vp construction of a road along the western edge of Earl.ington Park (along the alignment of the proposed Valley Parkway) , it is suggested that im- provements to Monster' Road north of Earlington Park match with this road and extend north to the Sunset Boulevard. In addition, the Monster Road intersection with Sunset Boulevard should be examined at the time a more specific development proposal is proposed and any project-related channeli- zation or signalization improvements (e.g. , vehicle detection) that are warranted be made. There may be other traffic operations improvements that can be made at ' some intersections in the project vicinity but as noted earlier, such detailed improvements cannot be reliably forecast because of the wide range of development potentials for this project. Such a detailed analysis may be appropriate at the time a more specific proposal is developed. While the potential for physical construction solutions to solve problems is limited, there are a number of policy and program improvements that can be effective in reducing or eliminating impacts. These include the following: • Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. • If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide subsidy of bus passes asia company or office park benefit. • Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and carpool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park management should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. • As much as practical , office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 PM peak period, and thus have less impact on the already congested road system. • As an inducement to achieve these objectives, the City may want to consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by code to discourage the use of the single occupant vehicle. Another, less rigorous approach is to reserve a portion of the parking spaces for carpools. Because carpool incentives have not played a large role in the development of new employment centers, it is suggested that about 5 percent of the total number of parking spaces be reserved and that the Seattle- , The Ms. Deborah Krouse IT' a N ST November 20, 1981 Page 6 rovp King County Commuter Pool monitor their use and increase the percentage of reserved spaces when use reaches 80 percent occupancy. Many persons believe these policies are not as effective as physical solutions. Yet in this region in cities like Seattle and Bellevue where traffic volumes have reached capacity congestion levels, these types of policies have had a substantial impact on maintaining or decreasing the rate of increase of traffic growth. To illustrate the effectiveness of these policies, an in- crease of the average vehicle occupancy from 1.1 persons per vehicle to 1.25 persons per vehicle represents an enhanced level of service from LOS E (capacity) to LOS D. In a community like Renton where much of the employment is concentrated along several major employers, policies to encourage ride- sharing are increased. Response to Comments In addition to the above analysis we have been asked to respond to several of the comments that the City of Renton received on the DEIS. The following summarizes these responses. �l Renton Planning Staff - (June 8, 1981) In response to the desire for detailed traffic analysis, we met with the Director of Public Works and the City of Renton Traffic Engineer and it was determined that a detailed traffic analysis is not appropriate for this proposed rezone EIS since the very general nature of the proposal results ,R in a broad range of potential traffic volumes and impacts. The range is too broad to make the detailed traffic analysis that is typically requested by the City meaningful . Please see the attached memo dated August 7, 1981. More important, the level of detailed traffic analysis typically requested by the City is not appropriate for inclusion in an environmental impact statement. We refer you to the State Environmental Policy Act and specifi- cally reference the following: WAC 197-10-440 (7) (i) WAC 197-10-440 (7) (ii) WAC 197-10-440 (7) (a) (iv) Such detail is appropriate as part of detailed design studies. It is not important for the City to know detailed improvements that need to be made. Rather, it is essential that they know where improvements are needed and the general ability for the improvement to mitigate the impact. Because the City must give final design approval on any plans for improvements to the public road system, specifics regarding the design aspects of these improvements can be determined during the preliminary design phase of the preparation of plans, specifications and cost estimates. The Ms. Deborah Krouse November 20, 1981TRANS-.'• Page 7 sbrovp The request to know the difference in impact between the 9,000 vpd and 34,000 vpd range of potential development options is somewhat mute since most major arterials presently operate at or beyond capacity (please see Police Department letter dated March 31, 1981) . We can understand that the City would like some quantified measure of the difference in impacts that would result from the wide range of options. We can understand that they may believe that a detailed estimate of delay or some other measure could be estimated. Unfortunately, the science of traffic engineering is not as discrete as, other physical sciences like hydraulic or structural engineering. Often, people believe that the relationship between traffic volume and the street system is analogous to pouring water through a funnel such that when the water is poured in faster than it goes out, the funnel overflows the top. In the case of the street system, this analogy would mean that delays would simply become longer and longer. . Fortunately, however, cars are not like water molecules - cars have drivers who make decisions. Experience shows that these drivers will withstand only so much inconven- ience (delay) and then they seek some alternative (seek the path of least resistance). As we have discussed above, drivers will attempt to find another route (pour water into another funnel ) ; change the time that they travel (wait to pour water until the funnel is partially emptied or start to pour in water before the funnel is filled) ; or choose another mode like transit or carpooling (convert the water to steam so it can pass with less inter- ference) . Because of the dynamics of driver decision making, there is no reliable way to predict (at the level of detail requested in an EIS) these differences. Because many of the intersections on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way are already at capacity, it can only be said that these capacity conditions will continue and that the peak hour time periods will become longer. If the City chooses to actively encourage the use of transit and high occupancy vehicle modes as suggested in the Seattle-King County letter dated May 28, 1981, the length of these peak periods may be shortened. Unfortunately, there is not an exact method to assess the level of impact that is likely to occur , if these mitigating measures are promoted. King County Planning and Community Development (May 29, 1981) It is intended that Monster Road be improved to a minimum two-lane roadway with no parking. Right-of-way should be retained in areas where there are existing or possible intersections with driveways and/or streets to permit the addition of auxiliary turning lanes where traffic volumes warrant. The funding for any of the improvements outlined is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. In other words, the costs for improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should be allocated in proportion to the The Ms. Deborah Krouse TRANSPO November 20, 1981 Page 8 grow traffic volumes generated by this proposal compared with the total traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development potentials for this and other parcels in the area) , it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more refined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic assignment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. Final determina- 'tion of funding should be negotiated with the City using the proportional use formula as a basis. The westerly connection could divert up to 25 percent of the traffic generated by the Black River Office Park and a like percentpge of the traffic generated by Earlington Park. This mitigating measure is recommended since diversion of travel to the west would tend to slow down traffic growth on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way. Such an improvement would simply decrease the length 1 of the peak period in the vicinity of the project. This improvement would not eliminate nor result in an improved level of service on these routes since conditions already operate at LOS E (capacity) . Seattle King County Commuter Pool (May 28, 1981) The suggestions offered by the Seattle King County Commuter Pool are acknowl- edged. The success of the recommended measures may depend largely on the mix of tenants. In the event the office space is occupied by one or several large tenants, the possibility for these programs to be effective is enhanced. If, on the other hand, the office is oriented towards smaller tenants, the ability to coordinate these programs may be somewhat diminished. As a supple- ment to the mitigating measures proposed, it is recommended that these pro- grams be monitored such that they can be adjusted to respond to changes in the tenant mix and respond to the success and/or failure of any of the measures. If the demand for carpool and vanpool parking spaces increases, the propor- tion as recommended above should be increased. On the other hand, if certain programs prove to be unsuccessful , it is not prudent that they be continued at the recommended levels. li City of Renton Police Department (March 31, 1981) It is acknowledged that much of the road system currently operates at capacity. We do not, however, agree that every intersection or every road section oper- ates at this level . We also generally concur that there is likely to be increase in the number of accidents resulting from the increased traffic vol- ume that would be generated by this and other ap.d—ottrerrprojects in the area. While it is a general rule that the traffic accident rate increases once a roadway operates at or beyond capacity, the traffic accident history in the The Ms. Deborah Krouse November 20, 1981 IMANSPO Page 9 @MI/ vicinity of the project does not support this generalization. Based on several years of traffic accident history, the traffic accident rate has been equal to or less than the rate of increase in traffic volume. The creation of the road system west of the site is not expected to measurably reduce the number of accidents that would occur as a result of this project; rather, it.will simply shift the location where those accidents might occur. Citizen Letter (May 27, 1981) It is acknowledged that the mitigating measure to build a roadway connection to Monster Road would have some impact on the preservation vegatation of the western half of the site since either a direct connection to Monster Road or the extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park would need to cross cerLtain drainage areas and would temporarily disrupt the flow of water and vegptation in this area. Green River Study Group (May 26, 1981) The comments offered by the Green River Study Group are discussed in this letter and mitigating measures are outlined. A discussion of funding for these improvements is also discussed above in the response to comments to the King County Department of Planning and Community Development. Department of Transportation (May 18, 1981) The comments offered by the Washington State Department of Transportation are acknowledged. The formula for funding any improvements outlined in the mitigating measures section of this letter have been discussed above in the response to the King County Department of Planning and Community Development. I trust this letter responds to the questions you and City staff have regarding traffic impacts generated by this project. If you have any questions, I encourage you to call me.

"C • APPENDIX D DRAINAGE ANALYSIS SUPPLEMENT TO BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK EIS March 26, 1982 • _ DRAINAGE ANALYSIS SUPPLEMENT TO BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK EIS Hydrologic/Hydraulic Modeling • There have been at least two comprehensive hydrologic and hydraulic studies of flooding in the Eastside-Green River (e.g. , Springbrook Creek) drainage basin. The first study of note was a Watershed Work Plan developed by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) between 1965 and 1976, to assess the impact of a proposed flood control drainage project (namely, the P-1 Channel pro- ject) upon flooding in the Eastside-Green River area. The second comprehen- sive study of note was a Flood Insurance Study prepared under the sponsorship of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Both studies modeled the Eastside-Green River drainage basin using the SCS-curve number method and the SCS TR-20 hydrologic computer program. The studies also used the same design . storm criteria. Although the same methodology was used by both studies, the results of the analysis are quite dissimilar. The reason for the difference can be attributed largely to the judgments made in estimating curve numbers, time of concentration, and channel flow velocities and in the attention given to the effect that flow retention-detention-control structures have in modi- fying the hydrograph. The SCS study also used a drainage area that was approximately 3% (0.7 sq. mi . ) larger than the drainage area used in the FEMA study. Both studies used similar curve numbers in describing the rainfall-runoff relationship for the future condition in the drainage basin. Therefore, the total volumes of design storm runoff predicted by the two studies for the future condition are similar. This similarity is fortunate since the volume of runoff is singularly the most important parameter in determining the elevation of floodwaters in the lower portion of the Eastside-Green River basin. The time distribution of flood flow arrival at the pump station is also im- portant to floodwater accumulation, but to a lesser extent. The curve numbers used by the FEMA study for existing conditions are, however, significantly lower than the SCS curve numbers; therefore the runoff volume predicted by the FEMA study for existing conditions is approximately 20% less than the runoff volume predicted by the SCS study. For both present and future conditions, the estimated time of concentra- tion and the estimated flood flow channel velocities are respectively longer and lower for the FEMA study than the SCS study. The FEMA study also includes consideration of a greater number of structures that act to retain or detail storm runoff. As a consequence, the design storm runoff hydro- graph developed by the FEMA study exhibits an attenuation of peak flows and a much greater "spreading out" of storm runoff over time than the SCS hydro- graph. Figure 1 illustrates the difference in the runoff hydrographs developed by the SCS and FEMA studies. In our assessment of the two studies we observed that the SCS study devoted much more effort to the development of accurate curve numbers, for each subbasin than did the FEMA study. The FEMA study, on the other hand, appeared to devote more effort to the definition ' and inclusion of channel restrictions that either detain and/or retain storm- water runoff flows. Stage-Storage Relationship The Stage-Storage curves of Figure 2 indicates the volume of flood storage that is available below a given elevation behind the Black River Pump Station. The upper curve represents existing conditions and the lower curve represents conditions estimated to exist following construction of the SCS P-1 Channel project. The curves can be used to obtain an estimate of the elevation that floodwaters will rise for any given volume of floodwater accumulation behind the pump station. I 1 2 The Stage-Storage curves developed for the FEMA Flood Insurance Study differs significantly from the curves developed by the Soil Conservation Service and the difference in the two curves resulted in flood elevation predictions that • varied by as much as three and one-half feet for future conditions. The SCS b cu.rve construction for existing conditions was based on 1962 aerial survey maps with five-foot contour intervals. (1 ) The FEMA existing conditions curve was constructed with a more recent (1975) and more precise Corps of Engineers aerial survey map with two-foot contour intervals. Due to the discrepancy in available data, our staff made an independent. calcu- lation of available flood storage using the most recent, 1980 Corps of Engineers aerial survey map with two-foot contour intervals. The results of our calculations tended to support the stage-storage relationship developed for the FEMA study. (2) Consequently, we are utilizing the existing con- ditions, Stage-Storage curve developed for the FEMA study but modified to reflect a reduction in storage volume due to recent filling for development. The stage-storage curve for the post-project situation reflects the excavation of a little more than 300 acre-feet of soil below the fifteen feet MSL eleva- tion for construction of the pump station forebay pond and phase one of the P-1 channel and assumes redistribution of the spoils within the project limits. be- it tween the elevation of fifteen feet MSL and twenty feet MSL. This assumption accounts for the fact that the pre-project and post-project stage-storage ! ? curves merge at the twenty-foot elevation stage. Aside from the aforementioned. 1I .spoils disposal assumption, if fill is imported into the project area the stage- storage curve will move to the left. Likewise, if excavation spoils are trans ported out of the project area the curve will shift. to the right. The curve presented in Figure 2 is valid only if the imported fill and exported excavation spoils trade-off are equivalent for each elevation interval ' in 'the project area. 1Per the telephone conversation with Keith Busch, SCS, Spokane, WA. 2In developing our stage-storage relationship, all storage below four-foot MSL was assumed dead storage. In addition, it was assumed that non-contiguous' topographic depressions did not provide effective storage below the level of the surrounding ground elevation and that no effective storage was provided by storage volume below elevation ten feet MSL, that was not contiguous with the SRringbrook Creek channel . It was allowed that these non-contiguous low areas i could be subject to seasonal ponding and therefore not be available for flood storage. • . 3 For example, it would require approximately 150 acre-feet of fill to raise 50.5 acres of the proposed Black River Office Park above the 17.0 MSL ele- vation. It would require approximately 50 acre-feet of fill for each foot of fill above the 14-foot MSL elevation. If all of the fill is imported from outside the floodplain area, the stage--storage curves of Figure 2 should be modified by reducing' the storage capacity available at 15.0 feet MSL by 50 acre-feet and reducing the storage capacity available at 16.0 feet MSL by 100 acre-feet, and reducing the storage capacity available at 17.0 feet and above by 150 acre-feet. Flood Volume Accumulation The flood water elevation in the area behind the Black River Pump Station is a function of the volume of water that accumulates behind the pump station. The maximum accumulation can be estimated by applying the continuity equation (storage = inflow-outflow) to the storm runoff flows, arriving at the pump station. Flood waters will accumulate behind the pump station whenever the rate of stormwater inflow exceeds the rate of pump station discharge and the accumulation will continue until the inflow rate receeds below the pump station discharge rate. At present, the maximum discharge of the Black River Pump Station is constrained by the rate of flow in the Green River. The Green River channel has a design maximum flood flow capacity of 12,000 cfs at the Auburn USGS streamflow gaging station. Flows or discharges entering the Green River when the flow is 12,000 cfs at the Auburn gage are in excess of the river systems design limit and en- croach upon the systems flood control safety factor. The Corps of Engineers, who control discharges to the Green River, have agreed to allow the Black River Pump Station to discharge up to 400 cfs when the flow of the Green River is 12,000 cfs at the Auburn gage. The agreement is purported to be a negotiated privilege rather than a contractual right. Assuming that the 400 cfs pumping allowance agreement is honored, the worst case condition for flood water accumulation behind the pump. station (e.g. , maximum flood water accumulation) is the situation where the design flood for the Eastside- Green River drainage area (e.g. , Springbrook Creek drainage area) occurs during 4 1' fl a period when the Green River is at maximum design flood stage. Under this set of conditions the discharge of the Black River Pump Station is limited to 400 cfs. The best case situation (e.g. , no flood water accumulation) is where the design flood occurs when the Green River is at a level that will allow the pump station to discharge at a rate equal to the rate of inflow to . 1 the pump station forebay. , I An intermediate flood water storage design condition that has been presented by the Soil Conservation Service is the situation where the pump station can discharge at an unlimited pumping rate for a period of twenty-two hours, at which time it must curtail pumping to the 400 cfs level . The twenty-two hour unlimited pumping period is based on the estimated time of travel for flood waters released from Howard A. Hansen Dam to reach the point of discharge from the Black River Pump Station. The rationale is based upon the scenario where 1 - the design storm hits the entire Green River drainage basin simultaneously, and in response to the storm the release from Howard A. Hansen Dam is imme- diately increased from some nominal level to the maximum design release rate. Still another condition evaluated is the situation where the pump station can discharge at an unlimited rate for a period of twenty-two hours at which time it must curtail pumping to a 300 cfs level . This particular situation is in- cluded only as it represents the scenario used for the FEMA Flood Insurance Study. . Table 1 gives a summary of the estimated volume of runoff accumulation and corresponding flood stage elevation for each of the aforementioned situations, with and without the P-1 Channel project and for both present and projected future levels of development. The results on Table 1 indicate that the design j storm estimated flood stage elevation behind the Black River Pump Station for present-day conditions is, most probably, in the range of 13.1 feet MSL to 14.7 feet MSL, dependent upon the particular pump station operating scenario adopted, and that these flood stage elevations will increase to the range of 15.0 feet MSL to 17.0 feet MSL without the P-1 project when the drainage basin has attained full development in accordance with existing land use plans. 5 TABLE 1 FLOOD STORAGE REQUIREMENTS AND FLOOD STAGE ELEVATIONS BEHIND BLACK RIVER PUMP STATION Required Storage Estimated Flood Conditions Volume (AcFt) Stage Elevation (Ft)(1 ) 1 .

(2) Future condition assumes compensating storage for fill such that the storage at each elevation remains unchanged from the present conditions. With the P-1 project complete the range of estimated future flood stage elevations will be diminished to a range between 13.9 feet MSL and 16.7 j' feet MSL. The flood volume accumulation and the flood stage elevation are based on the flood hydrographs developed using the SCS TR-20 computer model as modi- fied for use on small computers by Tudor Engineering and the data base developed for the 1980 FEMA flood study, but updated to reflect present (1982) and future (ultimate development in accordance with adopted Land Use Plans for the drainage area) conditions. j ~i ! - Local Storm Drainage The 71-acre site of the proposed Black River Office Park is, for the most part, a fairly level , heavily wooded site of poor, ill-defined drainage, with numerous areas of large, shallow topographic depressions that trap local i drainage and experience ponding following periods of heavy or prolonged pre- cipitation. As a result, the natural retention and detention storage of the existing site is relatively large. Most of the site is at an elevation be- low fourteen feet MSL and the groundwater table at the site is high much of the year.. In fact, several of the site depressions have standing water throughout all but the driest seasons. The site is bordered to the north by a set of Burlington Northern Railroad tracks on a raised grade. Just beyond the tracks is a steep, heavily wooded slope (e.g. , greater than 20% slope) that rises to and beyond the Empire Way Highway. (See enclosed map. ) This slope, due to its steepness, is likely to remain relatively undeveloped in the future. A field inspection of the site located three drainage culverts that pene- trated the BNRR track embankment. Of these three culverts only the most west- erly culvert appeared to discharge to a defined drainage channel , that 7 eventually discharges to the Black River channel just upstream from the existing Pump Station forebay. Discharge from the remaining two culverts appeared to apread overland across the site in an ill-defined pattern, and a large portion of this runoff, particularly from the center culvert, is likely intercepted and detained in topographic depressions and only reaches . the Black River channel via the groundwater or after depression storage has been satisfied. The most easterly culvert penetrating the railroad embankment is a 24-inch diameter culvert that discharges storm drainage from the Earlington Woods • Planned Unit Development located east of the subject site. Runoff from this culvert is ultimately to the old Black River channel . The largest portion of on-site precipitation is subject to the same fate as the discharge from the two most easterly culverts. It is possible, however, for worst case conditions, that the ground could be saturated and the de- ' pression storage satisfied. Under this situation the site could contribute a rate and volume of direct runoff to the Black River channel that far exceeds the textbook-calculated runoff for an undeveloped forested site. It is possible that a wet-season storm could generate runoff from the existing con- ditions that would be in the same ballpark as runoff from post-development conditions. After development, stormwater runoff, either generated from or transported across Black River Office Park site, will be collected in an underground storm drainage system and discharged to the old Black River channel . Underground detention storage will be provided if required; however, it is proposed that the stormwater be discharged directly to the old channel to take advantage of any period of unrestricted pumping that may be available at the Black River Pump Station during periods of intense storms. (See discussion of Flood Volume Accumulation.) The Black River Office Park site is in such close proximity to the Pump Station that stormwater detention appears to serve no beneficial pur- pose and most likely would increase maximum floodwater accumulation and, as a result, maximum flood stage elevation. 8 • it II Table' , below, provides a summation of the estimated 25-year stormwater • ': runoff that discharges to the Black River channel from the proposed develop- ment site.

This is tendered to the City in ac- cordance with its. terms and is subject to City adoption of the zoning and execution by the City. Please send us a copy of the recorded instrument . No signature has been secured from the Chicago, Milwaukee, St . Paul and Pacific Railroad Company as it has been paid off and the Contract Fulfillment Deeds are being prepared for recording . (See December 22, 1982 letter from Mr . R.D. Argue to Mr . Del Bonds - Enclosed) . We have also obtained for our mutual information an updated preliminary title report as of December 21, 1982 (See Enclosure) . There are some differences in format with the earlier one from Pioneer . For example, Restrictions 15 and 16 in Chicago Title amplify its Re- striction 21 to call attention to the terms of the ease- ment . The only substantive difference is that John R. Hansen, Inc. is now vested in title to Parcel C. This eliminates Restriction No. 8 in the Pioneer report . A copy of Instrument No. 8110210021 is enclosed for your information. We accordingly amended paragraph 3 ( i) in Exhibit 9 to reflect the Quitclaim deed which follows Instrument No . 8002220257 .

The agreement appears to further those purposes identified by both the city, the applicant, and other concerned parties at the hearing stage. The conditions were intended to mitigate to some extent the impact of the rezone and development of the subject site upon both the unique riparian forest identified in the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and the flood hazard of the valley. • The purpose for the easements and dedications of land was for both flood control purposes and to preserve certain "valuable" natural habitat. The tenor of the entire hearing was to that • effect. Under terms of the agreement, the applicant will be credited with the land so set aside and will be entitled to develop the remaining acreage at a density equal to the entire acreage. This is not unlike the case in which open space credit is given in the Planned Unit Development process. Conclusion #8 specifically indicates that the applicant will be entitled to develop the 51 remaining acres as though it were 71 acres. There was no evidence presented at the hearing which would have indicated that the land so carefully designated for greenbelt and flood control might be used for other purposes, save utility easement. The only reason the applicant agreed not to develop the entire acreage was the credit given for flood control/habitat preservation which the record reflected was necessary to approve the rezone. By rezoning the property under terms of the agreement, the city will in effect transfer the development rights of the dedicated acreage to the remaining acreage. Since this is the . case, the city could potentially violate the general density standards if it reserved the right to develop the property for other than its intended flood control and open space uses. Conclusion #7 indicated that the land should remain in open space perpetually in order for the applicant to receive the development credit. That was the intent of the recommendation of this office and the agreement as it now stands appears to carry out that intention. I hope this correspondence assists you in your deliberations on this matter. Sincerely, \(0'w*Affj Fred J.

The Engineering Department is reviewing the legal descriptions of the areas to be dedicated and they appear to generally consistent with Exhibit #12 of the rezone, however, Mr. Haggard and I will be reviewing that map in more detail on Friday, December 3rd, at 1:00 p.m. As noted in paragraph #2 of the transmittal letter of November 30, 1982, the issue of "other municipal purposes" for the areas to be dedicated is an issue which deserves City Council deliberation. Based upon the foregoing, we recommend that this matter be set for City Council deliberation on December 6th. Attachments: Revised final documents.

Clemens UC.0 2 1982 Policy Develoment Director POLICY Policy Development Department DEVELOPMENT DEPT. . City of Renton Municipal Bldg . 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98005 RE: Alterra Rezone Dedication Dear Mr . Clemens: Enclosed are two copies of a revised Agreement (the "Agreement" ) which has been modified substantially along the lines suggested in your letter to us of November 24, 1982 . One of the enclosed copies is marked to show changes from the last draft and the other copy is a clean one. Sections 2 .1, 2 .2 and 2 .3 were amended as you suggested, except that "other municipal purposes" was not added to the easement purposes contained in Sections 2 .1 and 2 .2 . We do not believe that it is appropriate for either the applicant or the various departments of the City to go beyond the easement purposes specified by the Hearing Examiner . We do not, however, intend to oppose any suggestion that the City Council expand the easement purposes to "other municipal purposes" and if it does so . we can easily and quickly revise the Agreement . In addition, given that the changes to Sections 2 .1 and 2 .2 contemplate the City locating structures upon the Greenbelt. Property, a new sentence was added to Section 5 to protect the development rights of our clients. With respect to Section 4, we made the form but not the substantive changes which you suggested . The reason is that we have no direct control over the govern- mental approvals which will be needed to segregate the Mr . David R. Clemens December 1, 1982 Page 2 Greenbelt Property and the Flood Control Property into separate legal lots. We did, however, add a sentence to Section 4 which requires our clients to make application, within one year of the final adoption of a rezone ordi- nance to have said properties segregated into separate legal lots.We believe the present version of Section 4 adequately protects the interests of both the City and our clients. If you have any questions, please feel free to call. Very truly yours, HAGGARD, TOUSLEY & BRAIN 41/44-447A?' -1A7 Michael G. Fulbright MGF/ab 9563B Enclosures cc: Mr . Ronald Neubauer Mr .

The Policy Development, Public Works, Building Department and City Attorney will all be recommending the "other municipal purposes" provisions for both the greenbelt and flood control zone areas. These four departments feel that without that provision, the agreement would ultimately become unworkable. At the present time, our intention is to present the Examiner's report along with the revised agreement to the City Council on December 6th.

RE: Alterra Rezone Dedication Dear Mr . Clemens: Enclosed is a Agreement (the "Agreement" ) which has been revised in accordance with our letter to, you of October 22, 1982 . The enclosed Agreement is marked to show the changes from the previous Agreement . In addition to the matters discussed in our letter to you of October 22 , 1982 , a couple of additional typographical errors, which are marked on the enclosed Agreement, were corrected and the second paragraph on page 1 of the Agreement was revised to indicate that Renton Property Associates has acquired fee ownership of Parcel A. Also, with a couple of exceptions, copies of the items set forth on Exhibit 9 to the Agreement are enclosed. The exceptions are the easement granted to the City of Renton on November 14, 1962 under Application No . 27583 and the, Easement granted to King County Drainage District No . 1 on. August 11, 1960 under Application No . 25422 . Apparently, neither of the aforementioned easements was recorded . I assume you can obtain access to the easement granted to the City of Renton. As for the easement granted to King County Drainage District No . 1 , we are in the process of tracking' it down and will forward a copy to you as soon as it is available . Its absences should not be a basis from getting this to the Council. NOV 161982 WARREN&t KELLOGG By I Mr . David R.

Renton; Washington 98055 � k,la Llj OCT 2 5 1982 RE: Alterra Rezone Dedication Dear Mr. Clemens : This letter is in response to your letter to me of October 15; 1982. We agree that "in" should be changed to "and" in the fifth line of the opening paragraph of the draft Agreement (the "Agreement" ) provided you. Copies of the items referred to in Exhibit 9 of the Agreement are being obtained and will be forwarded to you. We do not see a problem with granting a construction easement across our clients ' remaining property as long as there are adequate safeguards for our clients, such as limiting its use to reasonable times and areas reasonably designated by our clients and requiring restoration of any damage caused by such use. As for your request that the uses of the property being dedicated be expanded, we believe that the language contained in the Agreement as drafted is consistent with the Hearing Examiner ' s report. Expansion of uses by either of us would not be appropriate. However, if during the City Council ' s consideration of our rezone request, they desire to expand the uses along the lines you indicate; we would not be inclined to oppose it as long as there are adequate assurances that the expanded uses will not adversely affect the property retained by our clients. \r Mr. David R. Clemens October 22, 1982 Page 2 In addition; as for your suggestion in limiting our rights under Section 2. 3 of the Agreement, we are glad that you believe it appropriate for us to retain the right to locate utility lines across the property being dedicated to the City and are not opposed to placing some reasonable limits on our right to locate those utility lines. However the language you suggest appears too broad. A provision providing that our utility lines may not be located in a manner that would unreasonably interfere with any existing City lines or lines which the City has definite plans to install might solve both our problems. Finally; your request that the City use our property for spoil disposal raises entirely new issues which are beyond the scope of any of the proceedings to date. We think it is inappropriate to try to now add such a taking of our property into the Agreement. The unrestricted dumping of spoil could cause our clients great hardship. We are not; however; unalterably opposed to all spoil disposal and believe this can be worked out in the future. But there should be no delay in adopting the rezone due to this issue. We think an arrangement allowing spoil disposals in areas mutually agreeable to both parties and which meet criteria that ensure against hardship to our clients can be worked out. It will take significant technical input to develope appropriate criteria. We would appreciate your thoughts on this. We will revise the Agreement in the manner described above and forward a new copy to you early next week.

Dear Roger: We have received legal descriptions for the various parcels in the Black River Office Park rezone which would be donated or transferred to the City of Ren- ton. The property is basically divided as we understand it into two lots which will necessitate 1) a splitting of the donations with respect to the existing lot lines, and 2) acquiring signatures from all parties of interest. We are maintaining a high priority on obtaining this infor- mation and will be communicating with you as it develops and a draft of the deeds are prepared. It may be such that we will be able to submit a draft of the deed without identifying all of the parties of interest to you to facilitate your review with respect to the terms and con- ditions of the deeds.

PREFACE This document, together with the Draft Environmental Impact Statement issued July 10, 1981, is the Final EIS for the proposed Black River Office Park Rezone. The Draft EIS is not reprinted herein. This EIS has been prepared pursuant to WAC 197-10-580(2) . ix SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSAL I . The Proposed Action The project sponsor proposes to rezone a 71.16 acre site from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) designation in order to construct, in 2 phases, an office park and rail served warehousing. Future environmental consequences of specific on-site development will be addressed in more detail in future environmental documents. Off-site improvements may be required to serve this proposal , or this proposal in conjunction with other developments anticipated in the future in this area. These include improvements to the. P-1 drainage channel (see other Governmental Services, p. 86 of the DEIS) , and con- struction of the Valley Parkway. II. Impacts and Mitigating Measures A. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT 1. Earth • a. Geology and Soils Impacts Import of fill and reposition and cover of topsoils due to excavation and filling activities. Mitigating Measures Excavation and grading operations on the site will be performed in conformance with the City of Renton Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance b. Topography Impacts Topography will be modified in order to create buildings and road sites. Mitigating Measures Topographic changes could be restricted to limited areas of the site. -x- c. Unique Physical Features Impacts Development of the proposal will necessitate removal of 38.6 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site. Mitigating Measures - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50 to 100 foot setback from the top of the bank. 2. Air Impacts There will be a short-term increase in dust and fumes during construction. Over the long-term, automobile-related pollutants will increase as local traffic levels increase. Mitigating Measures - Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. - Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, cleaning and sweeping of streets at the end of hauling activities should be performed by the contractor. 3. Water a. Surface Water Quantity/Quality Impacts Increased surface runoff from the site as well as increased levels of polluted surface runoff would result from the proposed action. Alteration of runoff characteristics will occur in that diversion of stormflow into ditches and storm pipes will prevent water from flowing to low lying areas and may cause some drying up of wetlands that will be preserved on site, unless storm drainage measures are undertaken to protect them. -xi- Mitigating Measures - Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. - Stormwater runoff will be collected in a storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. - Oil/water separators should . be utilized to remove petroleum products from storm water. • - Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. - Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River Channel . b. Floods . Impacts Fill material will be utilized to bring building sites above the 100 year flood: elevations. Mitigating Measures - Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 year flood plain which will prevent on-site flooding. - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amounts of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. c. Groundwater Quantity/Movement Impacts Project development would result in an increase of impervious surface on the site, , which would decrease the amount of infiltration of precipitation. Mitigating Measures A reduction in building site coverage could require less filling. -xii- 4. Flora Impacts Approximately 84% of the site consists of a unique wetland deciduous forest, a part of the largest forest of this type in the Seattle area. As a result of the proposed action about 78% of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced by building foundations, roads and parking areas. Mitigating Measures - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - Placement of building sites, parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. - Vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. 5. Fauna Impacts Removal of most wildlife habitat and reduction in most native wildlife due to intrusion of human activity. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. - As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. - Surface water quality along Black River I should be preserved by planting natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible. Xiii- 6. Noise Impacts (Short-Term) Noise levels will increase considerably during construction activities with frequent noise peaks depending on the type of equipment used. Traffic noise will increase on adjacent streets. Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00a.m. and 7:00p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. Impacts (Long-Term) Increase in traffic and train movements will result in a proportionate increase in noise levels. Increases in noise levels due to human activity at the site will occur. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping, careful site design and berming should be utilized near main roads to deflect noise and reduce its impact. - See "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," p. 81 of the DEIS. - Installation of rubberized railroad crossings where the access road would intersect the railroad spurs to the south of the site would decrease noise generation. -xiv- 7. Light and Glare Impacts Addition of low level lighting on the site. The traffic generated by the site will increase the incidence of headlight glare. Some glare will be produced by reflections from windows and possibly the buildings themselves. Mitigating Measures - Building wash lighting should not be used. - Perimeter landscaping, fencing and berming, especially around parking areas and road entrances could reduce light spillage. - Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. 8. Land Use Impacts Change in the land use from old growth riparian forest and open space to office park with warehousing. Mitigating Measures An alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space. 9. Natural Resources Impacts Removal of most of the existing vegetation and open space on the site. Consumption of some natural resources for construction and maintenace of the project. Mitigating Measures Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. 10. Risk of Explosion or Hazardous Emission Impacts There will be a slight risk of hazardous emission or explosion during construction and potentially from future tenants. -xv- • Mitigating Measures None. B. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT 1. Population and Housing Impacts A slight increase in local housing demand may result due to employees desiring to relocate near their work. Also, day time , population levels at the site will increase to about approximately 4,100 permanent employees. 2. Employment Impacts Increased short-term employment during construction and long-term employment once the development is complete. Mitigating Measures None. 3. Transportation/Circulation Impacts The proposed Black River Office Park is anticipated to generate be- tween 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day and between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles during the evening peak hour. This additional .volume will exacerbate the existing congestion .at most of the intersections along major arterials. • Mitigating Measures a) To reduce potential safety hazard, Monster Road should be upgraded to accommodate heavy trucks and increased traffic volumes. This may involve recharmelization and possible signalization of the Sunset Boulevard/Monster Road inter- section. • • • -xvi- . b) To discourage the use of single occupant vehicles, the City may consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by the zoning code. c) The road proposed to be constructed along the west edge of Earlington Park, to the south of the site, could be extended in such away to provide westerly access from the Black River Office Park, in order to reduce traffic volumes that flow through rarlington Park. d) Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. e) If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. f) Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and car- pool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park manage- ment should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. g) As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period. h) Any roadwork on-site could be conditioned to allow open at all times a portion of the road wide enough to peLlydt emergency vehicle access. i) Grade an alignment from Thomas Avenue S.W. which would intersect the road system on-site with a gravel sub-base wide enough to allow emergency vehicle access. j) Disruption of traffic flow in the internal road system could be minimized by installing utilities, within the right-of-way, but outside the roadway proper. • -xvii- 4. Public Services a. Fire Service = Impacts Over the short-term, construction activity may increase the hazards of fire fighting. Construction of the proposal would significantly impact the fire protection responsibilities of the Renton Fire Department. This development, coupled with future development in the area, would necessitate improvements to provide timely first response capabilities. Mitigating Measures - Sprinkler systems installed in buildings per City Code and Fire Marshall 's requirements, will reduce the amount of fire flow required. - Non-combustible building materials would reduce risks of fire. - Industrial tenants could be limited to uses that do not utilize flammable materials. b. Police Service Impacts Demand for police protection will increase. Mitigating Measures - Tax revenues generated from the development will help offset the cost of additional service. -xviii- • - Internal security systems could be installed in the building. - Exterior lighting should be placed at strategic locations to provide additional security measures. • c. Hospital Facilities Impacts The proposed project is not expected to significantly affect usage of the Valley General Hospital . Mitigating Measures On-site first aid facilities within major buildings should be provided. d. Parks and Recreation Impacts Development of the site will preclude any future development or designation for park use. ! - Mitigating Measures None. e. Maintenance Impacts Increased demand for City maintenance of streets , water, sanitary sewer and stormwater drainage systems. Mitigating Measures None. 5. Energy Impacts Increase in demand for electrical power and natural gas and possible increase in demand for energy associated with transportation. -xix- Mitigating Measures - Insulation in roof, walls, flooring and glass should be utilized. - Energy analysis of building design should be performed. 6. Communication Impacts Increase in demand for telephone service. Mitigating Measures - All telephone lines will be installed underground. - Installation of telephone lines will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. 7. Public Utilities Impacts Existing water supply and system would experience some additional demand. Deterioration of water quality entering the combined sewer and storm drainage system is possible during construction activities. In the long-term, the quantity of water entering the system will increase due to increased impervious surfaces on the site. Also, project development would generate increased solid waste and sewage flows from the site. Mitigating Measures Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to its discharge into Springbrook Creek. 8. Human Health Impacts Increased noise levels due to construction, traffic and other human activities may affect the health of nearby residents. -xx- Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity. should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. 9. Aesthetics Impacts Visual appearance of the site will be altered. Mitigating Measures Site design and retention of some existing vegetation will soften the impacts of the bulk and mass of buildings. 10. Archaeological/Historical Impacts Project development may cover potentially archaeologically significant portions of the site, specifically Duwamish Indian sites . (Refer to the letter from the Office of Public Archaeology in Appendix D of the DEIS.) Mitigating Measures The Office of Public Archaeology of the University of Washington will conduct borings at 25 meter intervals in the areas considered to have high archaeological potential and at , 50 meter intervals at other undisturbed areas to confirm specific locations prior to development of the site. -xxi- 11. Economic Factors Impacts The project would create short-term construction employment. The development would also partially ease the demand for industrial building space. The City of Renton will receive an increase in tax revenues and municipal costs generated from the project. Mitigating Measures None. III . Alternatives - Please refer to the comparative analysis in Table 10 on page llla. Alternative 1 - Development of 75% of the site with 25% in concentrated open space. This alternative is slightly greater in density than the proposed action, but the site plan would be so designed to allow 25% of the site to remain in concentrated open space. This open space would most likely manifest as a greenbelt of varying width along the old Black River Channel and Springbrook Creek located at the site' s southern perimeter. Impacts This alternative would retain approximately 25% of the site in its natural state as a riparian forest. The impacts of this development alternative would be slightly greater than the proposed action; however, the difference in impacts is not readily quantifiable. It is expected that this alternative would generate slightly greater impacts in the following elements: soils, topography, erosion, air quality, runoff, flora, fauna, noise, light and glare, natural resources, employment, transportation/circulation, public services, aesthetics, and economic factors. When definite site plans become available for review, specific differences in impacts can be assessed. -xxii- Feasibility According to the developer, this alternative is economically desirable and feasible. However, the increased impacts caused by an increase in density would reduce feasibility with respect to service from city and public utilities, as well as diminish the acceptability of project development in regard to the physical environment (soil , topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources.) Alternative 2 - Development of 46% (33 acres) of the site with 38 acres remaining in open space. Description This alternative differs from the proposal in that building would occur on only Phase 1 of the property with the remaining 38 acres (the western one-half of the site) preserved in open space reserve to mitigate the development impacts. Impacts Overall , this alternative would place decreased demand on the physical environment. Specifically, no development would take place in the western portion of the site. This area would be preserved as open space which would eliminate the impacts on soils, topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources for that area. Impacts to the physical environment in the developed areas would be comparable to those of the proposed project. Impacts to the human environment (public services, utilities, energy and archaeological resources) would be similar to the proposed project. However, impacts on such elements as transportation/circulation, air quality, noise and employment would be diminished. Feasibility This alternative would reduce the amount of leasable building space by an undetermined amount. There is a high demand for rail-served warehousing which may not be tapped if the project were to exclude this use. -xxiii- Alternative 3 - No Development Description This alternative would leave the site in its undeveloped state on a permanent basis or on a temporary basis until some other proposal for development is approved by the City. However, pressure to develop would continue due to Manufacturing Park designation on the Comprehensive Plan, . development of the surrounding properties and increasing demand for industrial land development. Impacts All adverse environmental impacts of the project would be eliminated with this alternative. The positive economic benefits of the project, such as increased property taxes, creation, of short- and long-term employment and partial alleviation in demand for industrial land would also not occur. The most significant impact of this alternative would be preservation of the riparian forest which would extend the opportunity to the City to purchase the site and preserve it as a green belt. No development would shift the impacts of development to other sites which may be more or less suited for these uses. Feasibility . The "no develoment" alternative would not meet the objectives of the proponents. The feasibility of the City in acquiring the site for the purpose of presesrvation is unlikely due to the market value of property and the City's Comprehensive Plan designation of the site for manu- facturing park use. However, the City may require preservation of substantial portions of the site due to the potentially adverse environmental consequence of development. IV. Unavoidable Adverse Environmental Impacts I. The Physical Environment A. Earth 1. Changes in the contours of the site, including excavation depths of a maximum of 10 feet for utilities. 2. Addition of fill over native soils. - . B. Air 1. Increased air pollution from automobile emissions. 2. Increased particulate levels due to construction activity and additional traffic volumes. 3. Short-term odors during construction activities. C. Water 1. Increased surface runoff from the site which may contain an increased level of urban pollutants. 2. Potential alteration of ground water movement, quantity and quality on the site. D. Flora About two thirds of the natural riparian vegetation on the site would be removed. E. Fauna 1. A reduction in the ability of the site to serve as habitat for wildlife. 2. Reduction in number and diversity of wildlife. F. Noise 1. Increased noise levels over the short-term due to construction activity. 2. Increased noise levels over the long-term due to human activity and increased traffic and rail volumes. G. Light and Glare Light and glare will be emitted from the site to surrounding properties. -xxv- H. Land Use 1. Loss of open space. 2. Preclusion of alternative land uses for the site during the life of the project. I. Natural Resources 1. Consumption of building materials and energy. 2. Conversion of open space to warehousing and commercial uses. II. The Human Environment A. Population and Housing Very slight increase in population to the City. B. Employment None. C. Transportation/Circulation Traffic impacts will be increased as a result of project development. D. Public Services and Utilities Increased demand for all public utilities and public services. Cumulatively, with other developments in the valley, utilities and services will eventually need to be increased. E. Aesthetics Visual 'appearance of the site will be altered. F. Archaeological/Historical The potential removal of an archaeological site. G. Economics Unknown. -xxvi- DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL I. Name of Proposal Black River Office Park II. Project Sponsor Alterra Corporation 2120-A S.W. 152nd St. P.O. Box 66101 Seattle, WA 98166 The proponents have requested a rezone of 71.16 acres from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) . The development, to be completed in two phases, will contain rail-served warehouse and an office park. III. Project Location The proposed project is to be located on a 71.16 acre site, approxi- mately one mile west of the Renton central business district. The site is bounded on the north by the Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of- Way, on the east by the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development, on the south by the proposed Earlington Industrial park, and on the west by Monster Road and the P-1 pumping station. IV. Other Agencies Maintaining Files on the Proposal None. V. Site Description Roughly 11.5 acres of the 71.16 acre site have been cleared and about 59.5 acres consist of riparian forest. Approximately 5 acres of the cleared portion of the site is presesntly used for dumping purposes for a land fill . Access to the fill area is via a dirt road adjacent to the railroad intersecting Monster Road. The remainder of the site is heavily vegetated by a riparian forest. The site is generally level except for those areas near the railroad tracks which have been filled. xxvii- . • VI. Description of the Surrounding Area The immediate vicinity of the project site is characterized by a combination of rapidly developing industrial lands and undeveloped open space with several residences to the east. The site is north of and contiguous with the Earlington Golf Course; this acreage has been r proposed for development as Earlington Industrial Park. North of the site is the Burlington Northern (B.N.) railroad tracks. Across the tracks • from the site is, a heavily wooded slope covering the south side of Earlington Hill. To the west is the King County Black River Watershed pump station and Monster Road. To the east and northeast is the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development. • • . VII. Major Physical and Engineering Aspects of the Proposal Definite site plans have not been determined. However, tentative land use percentages are as follows: • Site Coverage Use Acreage Percentage • Warehouse 12.09 17% Office 35.58 50% • Roads 2.85 4% Total Developed 50.52 71% . Open Space • 20.64 29% (Approximately 35% of the riparian forest would remain upon development.) Also, the proponent intends to impose development restrictions, including the following: ; 1. The minimum tract size for any development shall be 2 acres.. 2. Maximum land coverage by building shall be 40 percent. 3. Maximum site coverage by impervious surfaces shall be 70 percent. 4. Each developed site shall' retain a minimum of 20 percent of the L natural vegetation in a contiguous pattern. 5. An architectural control committee shall approve all structures in order to ensure that the design is complementary to the existing environment in the area. • .

NPSEN-PL-ER 20 May 1981 COMMENTS: Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) , Black River Office Park Rezone, Renton, Washington • 1. Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, a Department of the Army permit is required for the discharge of dredged or fill material into the Black River west of the dam and pumping stations near Fort Dent Park, as well as for any fill in wetlands associated with the western- most reach of the Black River. 2. Page 3, paragraph b, Floods. The majority of the proposed site is classified as a Broadleaf Swamp, with a smaller portion on the northwest 2. border classified as Shrub Swamp, according to classification criteria developed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in their National Wetland Inventory. Both classifications provide valuable benefits for storm water retention, wildlife habitat, and water filtration/purifica- tion. Filling or alteration of these areas may also require concurrence on the project from the FWS, as well as a Section 404 permit from the Corps of Engineers. 3. Detailed analyses are required to evaluate impacts on flooding from deletion of existing storage areas and acceleration of runoff to assure that flooding will not be aggravated. • 4. Page 55, paragraph 3A, second paragraph, and page 88, paragraph 4F, last paragraph. The proposed development would have little adverse effect on runoff if the proposed Soil Conservation Service (SCS) East Side Watershed Project is completed. The SCS design has sufficient hydraulic capacity to accommodate all the increase in runoff related to the development described in the EIS. The Black River pumping plant has sufficient capacity with or without completion of the channel improve- ments upstream of the pump plant. However, since conveyance to the pump plant is insufficient without charo'el improvements, loss of storage r 4 spa^.e by landfill would force water presently stored in the proposed office park area to other areas. 5. The EIS clearly (and correctly) states that "project development will result in increased surface runoff and simultaneous reduction in flood storage capacity of the site which will contribute to flooding conditions. . ." (page 98). However, it does not provide enough detailed information or data to adequately assess the impacts from this increase in surface runoff, decrease in flood storage, and the contribu- tion to flooding. a. There is no quantitative data to indicate the magnitude of increase in runoff, decrease in flood storage, or the type and magnitude of change in flooding proolems resr:ing from the proposed project. /' I -3- b. More specifically, there is no quantitative data on the impacts of this project on the SCS's Eastside Watershed Project. Will it impact the feasibility or flexibility of the SCS project? SCS's project should be listed on page 19, "The Relationship of Proposal to Existing Laws, Policies, and Plans." c. There is no discussion of what will be done about the proposed project's "contribution to flooding conditions" until the construction of SCS's P-1 channel and detention pond are completed (see page 98). The proposed Black River project will contribute to the flooding problem and there is no guarantee of when, if ever, the Eastside SCS project will be constructed. Further analysis is needed on the impacts of the project on flooding in the absence of the SCS project. The EIS should indicate alternatives available, if any, to the valley cities in con- taining additional rates of storm water runoff. If studies indicate that the expected increases in runoff rates and volumes cannot be pro- 1. vided for, the EIS should then point out anticipated impacts to the natural environment as well as to plans for valley flood reduction measures now proposed by the Corps of Engineers, King County, and other valley cities. d. The EIS does not discuss the combined impacts and/or cumulative effects of the proposed Black River Office Park project and the Earling- ton Woods Planned Unit Development (PUD), located east of the proposed project site, with regard to increased surface runoff, changing drainage patterns , etc. The Earlington Woods PUD "is being constructed, and run- off from the site is and will be routed through the Black River Office Park site and into Springbrook Creek which drains the wetlands at the proposed site (page 54). - e. The EIS states that storm water runoff will receive "wetland treatment." First, this term needs to be defined. Second, since the proposed project will increase surface runoff and decrease the wetlands, will the remaining wetlands be adequate for "wetland treatment" of the runoff? 6. Generally, the EIS lacks detailed information. It is difficult to assess the impacts of the project on flood plain management objectives, (Q water quality, the need for a 404 permit, the SCS project, and induced flooding (these last two are of interest and indirectly related to the Corps' Green River Flood Damage Reduction Study). -4- Response to Comments from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers Comment Number: 1 The applicant has discussed with representatives of the Corps of Engineers the applicability of the Section 404 permit to potential development on the subject site. The Corps of Engineers indicated that a previous decision regarding waterways upstream from the P-1 Pump Plant could possibly exempt the site from the requirements of the 404 permit. This matter will be reviewed in full at such future time when building permits are sought in association with a specific development proposal. Comment Number: 2 To incorporate the information provided in the comment letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, the following sentence is hereby added to the discussion of "Surface Water Quantity/Quality - Existing Conditions," on page 54 of the Draft EIS: "These swamps provide valuable benefits for storm water retention, wildlife habitat, and water filtration/purification." Comment Number: 3 Please refer to the response to comment 1, above. Comment Number: 4 The consulting firm of Entranco Engineers has conducted a drainage analysis for the Black River Office Park which has been included as Appendix D of this document. The report addresses in detail the existing and future conditions of estimated flood elevations and the rate and volume of local stormwater runoff generated on the project site. Table 1 on page 6 of Appendix D summarizes the estimated volume of runoff accumulation and corresponding flood stage ele- vation both with and without the P-1 Channel and for present and projected future levels of development as indicated in accordance with existing land use plans. -5- Comment Number: 5 Entranco Engineers has conducted a water quality impact analysis, the results of which have been included in this document as Appendix A.The details of the wetland treatment proposed for the Earlington Park and Black River Office Park developments are discussed on page A-3 of that report. Entranco Engineers has concluded that the old Black River Channel has adequate storage ability "to provide a high degree of water quality treatment for :the combined stormwater runoff from existing and proposed projects in the vicinity." (page A-7) These water quality improvements can not be achieved with the imple- mentation of the P-1 forebay since the forebay includes major portions of the existing Black River Channel. However, the existing quality of Springbrook Creek is only slightly better than anticipated runoff quality, and it is unlikely post development runoff will result in any measurable increase in pollutant concentrations in Springbrook Creek.

The site plan indicates that the area north I. and northeast of the Black River pump plant will be developed. Green River. Project Plans include this area as part of a holding pond (forehay) . We, therefore, recommend that this area be excluded from development. --On page 61, the report states that "vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent." It is important that the width and length be stated, as the forest is an important design 2. • feature of Green River's holding pond. The pond area will be designed to provide habitat for wetland wildlife which will be enhanced by the "edge effect" provided by the existing forest. --Page 22, the development cf. the ; :parian forest would be a loss of a natural • resource which has scientific and educational value. This is not recognized. )- The forest is a• rare, old growth riparian stand of mature trees similar to the vegetation that once existed along the Green River in this area. In addition the riparian forest is a unique visual resource, in that it has high 4. visual resource quality. It provides the large mass of green relief needed in the landscape and acts as a screen and landmark. • --The statement considers saving isolated trees to enhance the visual effect of the development.

Soil Conservation Service Comment Number: 1 • The East Side Wastershed Project is discussed in reasonable detail on pages 86-88 of the Draft EIS, under "F. Other Governmental Ser- vices. " According to David Clemens of the Renton Planning Department, • the design for the placement of the P-1 Channel calls for a small portion of the project site to be included in the forebay area, but none of the forest is planned to be included. However, the proponent of the Black River Office Park has indicated that he will revise the site design as necessary to accommodate the placement of the P-1 improvements, once its plans are finalized. See also the response to comment 4, letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, on page 5 of this Final EIS. Comment Number: 2 As illustrated on the conceptual site plan on page viii of the Final EIS, the vegetative setback from the southern property line would vary from 50 feet to 150 feet and extend the full length of the southern property line, excluding the segments intersected by the access roads. The southern property line is approxmiately 5800 feet long of which 1150 feet have previously been filled. The remaining 4,650 lineal feet is pre- sently forested. Comment Number: 3 To incorporate the concerns of the Soil Conservation Service, the following information is hereby included in the discussions of "1.F. RESOURCE OBJECTIVE" (page 22) and "Parks and Recreation - Impacts" (page 85) of the Draft EIS: "The site, characterized by a rare, old growth riparian stand of mature trees, exhibits scien- tific and educational value which would be af- fected upon project development. 'Development of the property as- proposed in Figure 3 would elim- mate approximately 65% of this resource." -9- Comment Number: 4 The final sentence of the initial paragraph of the discussion of "Aesthetics - Existing Conditions" on page 94 of the Draft EIS is hereby amended to read as follows: _ "It serves as a visual relief from the sur- rounding developed areas of the Valley." - The final sentence of the discussion of "Aesthetics - Impacts" on page 95 of the Draft EIS is hereby amended to read as follows: "Development of the property as illustrated by Figure 3 will eliminate a portion of this visual relief. (Approximately 65 percent of the riparian forest is proposed to be removed) .The perception of reduction in visual relief will vary depending on vantage points." Comment Number: 5 Comment noted. These impacts are acknowledged on page 61 of the Draft EIS. Comment Number: 6 The factors and site conditions considered desirable for industrial development listed on pages 37 and 39 of the Draft EIS were quoted from the Renton Urban Area Comprehensive Plan. The discussion of consistency of the proposed Black River Office Park with these guide- lines commences on page 40, where it is acknowledged that the proposal site is characterized by poor drainage and that it will be necessary to introduce fill material in order to bring some areas of the site above the 100-year flood level. The proposal is also inconsistant with several related objectives of the City's Comprehensive Plan as described on pages 21 - 24 in the Draft EIS. Comment Number: 7 The TRANSPO Group has conducted a general traffic analysis of the po- tential impacts of the proposed rezone of the subject site, which has been included in this document as Appendix B. On pages 4 and 5 of that report, the existing conditions as well as proposed mitigations for Monster Road are discussed. -10- Funding of the improvements outlined in the attached traffic analysis, (Appendix B) , will be based on a proportional use formula. The costs for road and intersection improvements should be allocated in propor- tion to the traffic volumes generated by the proposal compared to the total traffic volume using the section of road and/or intersection that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the bene- fit received. Necessary transportation improvements will be consistent with phasing of development. The issue of how the City of Renton and/or other developers fund nec- essary improvements, excluding those required of the development des- cribed in this EIS, are beyond the scope of this EIS. An in depth traf- fic operational study to define problem areas and offer measures of mitigation will be done when a definite development proposal is submit- ted for this site. See letter from City of Renton Public Works Director Richard Houghton, last page of this EIS. Comment Number: 8 On February 28, 1981, the City of Renton issued Wetlands Study: A Reconnaissance Study of Selected Wetlands in the City of Renton which evaluates significant remaining wetlands in the City with the intention to develop an overall policy for protection of wetland functions. The study contains general policy recommendations as well as specific recommendations for preserving certain wetlands. The Black River Riparian Forest, contained within the subject site, was ranked by the study as the most important wetland in the study area, thereby warrenting all reasonable measures to permanently protect it. According to David Clemens of the Renton Planning Department, the study has been accepted as a technical document and is awaiting review by the Planning Commission. . It has not been adopted as policy by the City Council.

The Fish and Wildlife Service has repeatedly emphasized the wild1ife'values of the Black River Riparian • Forest in our review of various proposed projects (e.g.. the SCS East Side 'Green River Project) . . Its value is also mentioned in the EIS itself, as well as in your, own City of Renton Wetlands Study: "This ' forested wetland in (sic) considered the. most valuable wetland within . the City. It is large, fairly isolated, has high Overall wildlife diversity, high wildlife and waterfowl potential , and an extremely . • _ unique vegetational character composed of a complex of old growth " riparian species. It provides high value open: space and aesthetic qualities. The interaction with Springbrook Creek and the P-1 channel detention basin increases its wildlife habitat val.ue-(p. 11 )." Although we have not made a detailed study- of the area, wildlife charac- ._ teristic to this type of habitat include: mink, long-tailed weasel , . . river otter, raccoon, scr&^ch owl , great. horned owl , red-tailed hawk, • . . grouse, swallows, belted kingfisher, 4nd great blue heron: These - animals and the forest itself can provide a valuable recreational and educational resource for:your community.

Accordingly, we do not believe a decision to . enact the proposed rezone would be defensible from .a public interest pe'rspective.- • We appreciate the very real difficulties faced by a city in acquiring such lands, but we firmly' believe such long-term protection is as vital • to the public interest as a viable business community. The uniqueness " 2 i of this area may, make its acquisition of interest to the Nature Conservancy. Additionally, it is our understanding that the area is under priority consideration for acquisition under King County's proposed Park and Open -12- 1 .Space Bond Program. King County presently has a landscape architect preparing conceptual development plans for including the forest in a Q. recreation system linking Fort Dent Park and other areas along P-1 Channel and the Green River. Obviously, the final decision is up to the city and will reflect your underlying goals and objectives for, presumably, a balance between economic development and resource protection that will result in the quality of life desired by your constituents. We urge you to give our comments your serious consideration. Yours sincerely, - Charl es A. Dunn Field Supervisor • -13- Response to Comments from the United States Department of the Interior Comment Number: 1 Comments reflecting opposition to the proposed rezone are noted. Any future zoning or other land use decisions must balance the benefits and detriments of development of the subject site. The proponent must clearly support the proposals consistency with appropriate public plans and policies, and show that the proposal is timely. If any of these is- sues are unresolved, the plan as proposed could be modified, rejected or deferred until sufficient certainty is achieved. Comment Number: 2 According to Jeanette Veasey of the King County Parks Planning Department, the King County Parks and Open Space General Obligation Bond Proposal is tentatively scheduled to be placed on the ballot in the Fall of 1982. The General Obligation Bond proposed is recommended in a report devel- oped by a citizen committee entitled "Pro-Parks." However, Ms. Veasey indicated that the riparian forest on the site is not included in the acreage to be considered for acquisition. -14- - ... DONALL)W mOOS r..

Reference is made several times in the EIS that a 50-foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River channel will be maintained. The EIS also indicates that the majority of the site is wetland and will require fill . For the purpose of measuring the 50-foot setback, what is considered to be the top of the bank? What would be the physical dimensions and configuration of the riparian zone? The EIS indicates that oil/water separators could remove most pollutants from the stormwater runoff. Apparently the applicant or the City of Renton is designing an improved system. This is encouraging from the standpoint that . 2. most of the systems currently in use are inadequate to maintain desired water quality. We would be interested in reviewing the updated designs for oil/water separator systems. It is also planned to route stormwater runoff from the site to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Spr.ingbrook Creek. However, one of the unavoidable adverse impacts will be an increase in urban pollutant levels in the runoff. What will be the effects of these pollutants upon the wet:and? Will the character of the wetland be altered, thus further eliminating what is described in the Draft EIS as , 3' " .. a 70-acre climax riparian hardwood ecosystem, the last remaining example in -the lower Green River Valley" (page 49)? The statement on page 63 should be corrected. . Chum salmon are "an important q._ • species in the Green River system, however, they do not migrate into the J Springbrook system. City of Renton -2- May 28, 1981 It would also be helpful to show how this project will relate to the current e plans being developed by the Soil Conservation Service for the flood storage } area upstream of the P-1 pump plant. . A Hydraulic Project Approval issued by the Washington Department of Fisheries and the Washington Department of Game will be required prior to the start O. of any work activity within the 1rdinary high flow line of Springbrook Creek, the Black River, or their tributaries. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. • . Sincerely, • Rolland A. Schmitten, ' Director • • • • • • • -18- Response to Comments from the Washington State Department of Fisheries Comment Number: 1 The minimum 50-foot setback from the Black River Channel depicted on the conceptual site plan on page viii of the Final EIS, was calculated from the southern property line of the site. The applicant, as well as other owners of property abutting the proposed P-I Channel improve- ments, are continuing to negotiate with the King County Hydraulics and Soil Conservation District in considering their design criteria in re- lation to proposed development for adjacent properties. In this respect, the precise location of the preserved riparian zone has yet to be finalized. In order to assure a minimum natural setback of 50 feet the final land use design should calculate this setback from the future P-1 forebay property line. It should be noted that the 50 foot setback is the proponent's de- sign proposal. Specific dimensions approved by the city in the land use approval process may be more or less than this dimension. Comment Number: 2 As discussed on page A-3 of Appendix A, entitled Water Quality Impact Assessment by Entranco Engineers, the use of oil/water separators, in conjunction with the proposed wetland treatment, and gabion structures, as well as frequent street cleaning, should result in sufficient water quality treatment so that no significant degradation to Springbrook Creek would occur. Installation and maintenance costs of the storm water system which treats on-site storm water will be borne by the pro- ponent./ Comment Number: 3 Development of the property as currently proposed would eliminate approx- imately 77 percent of the riparian forest. Entranco Engineers has ana- lyzed the influence of the combined surface water runoff from Earlington Woods PUD, Earlington Park and the proposed Black River Office Park on the proposed wetland treatment of the old Black River Channel.

However, implementation of the P-1 Forebay would eliminate the Black River Channel's ability to filter out pollutants since the forebay includes major portions of the existing Black River Channel. (See the Water Quality Analysis, Appendix A, page 7 of the Draft EIS.) Comment Number: 4 The discussion of "Fauna - Existing Conditions," on page 63 of the Draft EIS is hereby revised as follows: "A Washington State Department of Fisheries report indicates that Springbrook Creek is one of the im- portant tributaries supporting runs of Coho salmon. However, Chum salmon do not migrate into Springbrook Creek." Comment Number: 5 A graphic depiction of the proximity of the subject site to the current design of the SCS forebay area is shown on the site plan on page viii of this document. This forebay area would require about four acres of the proposal site, In addition, included as Appendix D of this document is a Drainage Analysis conducted by Entranco Engineers, which examines the estimated flood elevations with and without. the P-1 Channel project for both present and future levels of development. This information is summarized on Table 1, page 6 of Appendix D.

You state, "Approximately 84% of the site consists .of a unique , wetland deciduous forest, .a. part of the largest forest of this type in the Seattle area. • As a result of the proposed action about 78% of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced . by building foundations, road and parking areas. " (page 4) • • As you know, wetlands such as this wooded swamp are ,important for fish and wildlife resources. Wetlands serve as sponges. They • store water in winter and buffer flood flows. In the summer they dry out and release their water. to adjacent streams. This helps maintain low flows in the stream in summer. . 1 You mention on page 54, "The Black River exhibits relatively high I nutrient concentrations and low levels of both dissolved oxygen concentrations and turbidity. Springbrook Creek is characterized by high bacterial contamination and nutrient concentration; in addition, state standards for dissolved oxygen concentrations are exceeded. " . The loss of wetlands would be expected to reduce dissolved oxygen in the creek and river as flows are reduced in summer. • L This proposal as planned may have some very serious consequences for water quality. • • . . . -21 '- ', � - Mr. David Clemens June 8, 1981 Page Two 0 You state on page 55, "It is planned that stormwater runoff will be directed to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. " Under this proposal, would silt, oil, grease, and other contaminants be routed to the wetland? It is unlikely the remaining wetland (50-foot wide) would be able to remove silt, let alone prevent oil and grease from entering Springbrook Creek and Black River. Further water quality degradations would impact fish resources in the creek and river. ' Wetlands are important wildlife habitat. Wooded swamps provide habitat for several tiers of wildlife. Because they border a stream, they have increased wildlife value. Riparian areas serve as wildlife corridors. Your document lists mitigation measures that should or might be done. We wonder what requirements would be placed on the develop-I 3. ment to mitigate impacts, especially loss of wetlands, water quality, and fish and wildlife habitat. From your discussion of fauna and flora, it seems that a U. S. Army Corps of Engineers section 404 permit would be required for any fill in the wetlands. You will need to contact the Corps 4.. to find out if they have jurisdiction. However, any unauthorized wetland fill in an area under the Corps' jurisdiction could be subject to removal and financial penalty. In short, we are very concerned over the loss of' the public' s \, 5. fish and wildlife resources that would accompany this project. , Growth is going to have to be planned and be orderly if fish and wildlife are to survive while urbanization is directed to those areas most suited for it.

The use of oil/water separators, installation of gabion structures, as well as frequent street cleaning and the proposed wetland treatment, should result in sufficient water quality treatment so that no discernable degradation would occur to Springbrook Creek. Also see response 3 on page 19 of this EIS. Comment Number: 2 , "Existing Conditions - Fauna, " on page 56 of the Draft EIS is hereby amended to include: "Wetlands are important wildlife hab- itat. Wooded swamps provide habitat for several tiers of wildlife. Be- cause they border a stream, they have increased wildlife value. Riparian areas serve as wildlife corridors." Comment Number: 3 When the Draft EIS states that mitigating measures "will" be undertaken, it indicates that such measures are already planned as part of the proposal or that the action sponsor will implement them. Use of other language (such as "should" or "could") indicates that the City, at its discretion, and in conformance with the City SEPA Ordinance and SEPA policies, will consider these mitigating measures as possible conditions in association with approval of a rezone or other development permit. Also see response 1 on page 14 of this EIS, Comment Number: 4 Please refer to the response to comment 1, letter from the Army Corps of Engineers on page 5 of this Final EIS. -23- Comment Number: 5 According to results of the hydrologic analysis conducted by Entranco Engineers, water quality in the site vicinity would not be adversely affected with the implementation of all the recommended mitigations.

The traffic that this proposal will generate was not assigned to any of the existing or proposed site access roads. Therefore, we have to assume that a large number of the potential 9,070 to 34,030 vehicle trips per day • that this development may generate will pass through the Monster Road (68th Avenue South)/Sunset Blvd. (SR 900) intersection. Given • this assumption we agree with the statement made on Page 81a of • this document, "This may involve rechannelization and possible sig • - nalization of the Sunset Blvd./Monster Road intersection. " The Department would like to point out that we have no money in our current operating program to finance these improvements. The developer through the lead agency should arrange .to finance these 2 . improvements in the project capitilization to prevent the existing and new users of the aforementioned intersection from suffering under poor safety and operative conditions for the foreseeable future.

It con- tains a travel assignment estimate for volumes on Monster Road (page 2) and recommends various mitigations and improvements to enhance smooth traffic flows (pages 4 and 5) . Because of the wide range of potential traffic volumes that could use Monster Road (because of the wide range of development potentials for this and other parcels in this area) , it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more refined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic as- signment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. Final determination will be negotiated with the City using the proportional use formula as a basis. (See Traffic Analysis, Appendix B, pages 7 and 8.) Comment Number: 2 As noted above, the funding for any of the improvements recommended in the Traffic Analysis is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. The costs for improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should be allocated in proportion to the traffic volumes generated by this proposal compared with the total traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development poten- tentials for this and other areas in the area) , it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, '.I that at the time a more refined development is planned for the site and its application filed, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic assignment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. -25- Comment Number: 2, (continued)_ Final determination of funding should be negotiated with the City using the proportional use formula as a basis; the applicant has agreed to add this funding mechanism as a condition of the rezone approval. -25a- • • ! - IMMUTER POOL May 28, 1981 VANPOOLS �� RECE{VFb ® BUSPOOLS .

We nevertheless feel compelled at this time to make several additional suggestions in an effort to more clearly spe- cify the level of commitment required of the proponent to successfully mitigate the adverse traffic impacts of this proposal. We would like to recommend, upon completion of a detailed study of on- site parking availability and usage, that the proponent thoroughly explore the potential for supplementing an aggressive ridesharing program which would include preferential carpool/vanpool parking, • sponsorship of a vanpool program, and other affirmative efforts as a means to reduce the traffic/parking impacts. We believe this is • important because merely "advising" tenants and employees of the advantages of fleetride, carpool, vanpool etc. is an insufficient degree of commitment -to brir,, about the desired results. Neither is it sufficient to assume that the worsening traffic conditions will persuade commuters to seek alternative modes of travel. It has been our experience that for large numbers of commuters to change their travel behavior they must be given an opportunity to do so through .

Metro is preparing a facilities plan for the Renton system with a grant from DOE and EPA, in part because the Renton Treatment Plant has • . reached its "design" capacity and continued development is occurring within the service area. A draft plan for the Renton service area was recently released for review and comment and contains a recommended program for upgrading the Renton system so that water quality and health will continue to be protected. ' • The following water quality concerns should be discussed in the FEIS: • to Design and maintenance plans for the on-site stormwater detention facilities should be incorporated into the Final EIS . The riparian forest and wetland on the site are water recharge areas, and would serve a valuable function in the stormwater control system if they were saved from development. • • • • The Soil Conservation Service' s East Watershed Project is described on pp. 86-88 of the DEIS .

Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment. Very truly yours, Rodney G. Proctor, Manager Environmental Planning Division RGP: shm cc: B.J. Carol Jerry Dow Monitoring & Analysis Response to Comments from the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle Comment Number: 1 Development of the site as currently proposed would eliminate approx- imately 65.4% of the riparian forest on the project site, and would replace approximately 70% of the site with impervious surfaces, thereby reducing the natural stormwater. control and groundwater recharge propor- tionately. As stated on page 55 of the Draft EIS, the stormwater drainage will not be detained on the site, in accordance with the East Side Green River Watershed Project. The EIS suggests that temporary stormwater detention facilities be installed during the construction period. This mitigation may be required as a condition of development, in which case, the developer will install the facilities. This EIS has addressed the impacts of rezoning the site from General Classification to Manufacturing Park and development generally consistent with this zoning. When specific development plans are proposed, additional:.EISs will be issued and, at that time, specific design plans for on-site stormwater detention facilities will be included. Comment Number: 2 -As stated above, this EIS has addressed the impacts of the rezone of the site from General Classification to Manufacturing Park, and the general uses allowable by such rezone, rather than the impacts of a specific development proposal. This site plan on page viii of this Final EIS is intended to be representative of probable development to occur on the site; however, as yet, no specific proposal is planned. Therefore, the relation- ship of site development to the scheduling of the Eastside Drainage Project cannot be determined at this time. However, failure of the SCS P-1 system to be developed could affect development of the subject property. Natural flood storage would need to be maintained unless an alternate flood reduc- tion system were established. Such a program would be the subject of other environmental documents and permit approval requirements.

This is a significant amount of vehicle trips and the amount of potential pollutants needs to be evaluated. It is suggested that on-site -7 I. monitoring and modeling be performed to determine current and future carbon monoxide concentrations. We strongly recommend that modeling be performed to determine whether the project will delay attainment of the carbon monoxide and ozone standards, since this project is - located in the carbon monoxide and ozone nonattainment area. It is also _recommended that all mitigating measures discussed in the re- 2• port (page 53) be implemented to reduce construction related emissions. • The upgrading of existing roadways and other mitigating measures dis- cussed in the Transportation section (page 80) should be implemented.

The peak hour carbon monoxide concentration re- corded at that facility was 3.2 parts per million (ppm) , substantially less than:, the Washington State ambient air quality standard of 35 parts per million. It may be assumed that existing peak hour carbon monoxide concentrations have increased from the 1977 level due to the increase in traffic volumes in the area. The methodology outlined in AP-42 "Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors," Second Edition, Supplement No. 5, February, 1976 was utilized .in calculating the potential increases in carbon monoxide concentrations resulting from development of the proposed Black River Office Park. This analysis was based upon worst case conditions occuring during the evening peak hour, during which, according to the traffic consultant, maximum of 3,790 vehicles could be generated. In addition, base conditions for this analysis are as follows: rush hour conditions (50% cold start, 10% hot start) ; vehicle mix for a central city area at 10 miles per hour; 100 - foot receptor distance; parallel winds (2 mph wind speeds) and 500 temper- atures. The results of this analysis indicate that maximum traffic vol- umes generated by project implementation could potentially produce average. peak one-hour carbon monoxide concentrations of approxmiately 10.4 parts per million (ppm) . . The Washington State Air Monitoring Data for 1980, published by the Washington State Department of Ecology, indicates that the nearest moni- toring station recording levels of ozone is located in Kent, at which there were no recorded violations of the national standard. A more detailed air quality impact analysis will be prepared when speci- fic development plans are proposed.

Our concerns are as follows . GENERAL COMMENTS Relationship of Riparian Forest to East Side Project Local sponsors of the East Side Watershed Project with the cooperation of the Soil Conservation Service are completing right-of-way and design studies for the first phase of the project, which includes the storage pond area immediately south of the proposed action. Design studies include plans dealing with revegetation and landscaping, fish and wild- life enhancement and passive recreation development, all intended to promote the storage pond area as a viable wetland marsh and wildlife habitat offsetting the adverse impacts of channel construction in the Renton area. The riparian "edge" between the storage pond and Black River woods has been identified as a significant element, important in its unaltered form, for the habitat and wildlife potential of the storage pond to realize its maximum potential . The final EIS and future site plans should acknowledge the significance of the Springbrook Creek riparian edge and should discuss what measures are proposed to minimize adverse affects that would compromise enhancement plans for the storage pond area. _ Additional Studies and Analysis The draft EIS indicates that future environmental and economic consequences —36— Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 2 of the proposed development will be addressed in supplementary plans and studies. These additional studies are noted throughout the draft statement and include detailed site plans, additional environmental documents, economic analyses of costs and revenues accruing to Renton from the development, groundwater and soils studies , transportation and traffic analyses and a subsurface coring program to determine if ar- chaeological significant resources exist on the site. The process and schedule for conducting these studies and their relationship to the current EIS and future actions by the City of Renton on the project need to be more clearly outlined in the final statement. Based on the number of additional studies and the significance of their scope, we feel the rezone decision should be not be made until these analyses are substantially completed. —' Public Acquisition of Black River Woods Site The EIS has understated the nu action alternative and potential for public acquisition of the site, suggesting that because of the high market value of the property and its designation in the comprehensive plan for manufacturing park use the feasibility is unlikely. Current 3 studies underway as part of a County-wide parks and open space bond program have recommended the Black River woods property as the third highest priority wetland for acquisition under the bond program. The site was originally recommended to the parks bond program by the City _ of Renton. It is expected the bond issue will be presented for voter approval in 1982 with funds potentially available later in the year for site acqui- sition. Public acquisition of the site is a potential alternative which should be developed more comprehensively in the final EIS including a detailed evaluation contrasting the benefits and impacts of such an al- ternative with other development alternatives. Balance Goals for Resource Protection and Economic Development The proposed action and alternatives 1 and 2 which require removal of from 67 to 80 percent of the riparian forest are inconsistent with many of the environmental , open space and resource preservation objectives of the City's recently adopted Comprehensive Plan--Policy Statement. Miti- gation measures proposed to offset these adverse impacts are generally limited to saving of significant trees and vegetation in undefined greenbelt areas, implementation of a master landscape plan, and preservation of vegetation in a 50 foot corridor along the Black River channel . We do not feel these measures compensate for the detrimental impacts the proposed action will have on the riparian forest which is acknow- ledged in the EIS as unique, rare and the best remaining climax -37- Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 3 riparian forest in the Seattle area. The final EIS should clearly discuss how the City's goals and objectives for protection and preservation of . �j- unique natural resources have been balanced with goals for economic development. — SPECIFIC COMMENTS pg. xiii The conceptual site plan should be corrected to show the flood storage pond upstream of the P-1 pump plant in its present design configuration. Preliminary land rights maps , including 6 proposed spoil disposal areas, are available from the Renton Watershed Office of the Soil Conservation Service. pg. 9 Park and recreation impacts fail to note the substantial re- creation demand which will be created by the projected 4,100 employees who wi;; work at the business park. pg. 19 The statement does not reference the Renton Parks and Recreation Plan which cites the Black River Woods as "potential wetland" 7 or the Renton Wetlands Report which describes in detail the unique ecological significance of the Black River woods. pg. 48 The draft EIS notes that up to 70 percent of the surface top soils will be displaced or covered by landfill as a result of B the development. The final statement should discuss opportunities for utilizing topsoils in landscaping and berming and the potential for removing and stockpiling topsoil resources prior to landfilling the site. Low slope gradients to not guarantee that erosion will be minimal during disruptive e:. avation, filling and construction activities. Erosion and sedimentation control plans should be prepared for 9 the development, particularily due to the close proximity of the site to the Black River channel and Springbrook Creek. _ pg. 55 The East Side Watershed project does not require that surface runoff be removed from the site as quickly as possible. Runoff controls are regulated by the City of Renton which re- quire stormwaters to be retained on-site and released at a /0 natural rate incorporating natural drainage features (pg. 22) . The final EIS should contrast the trade-offs between retaining runoff on-site in retention ponds which could be developed as site amenities and piped stormwater systems discharging directly — to receiving waters as proposed for the project. pg. 57 State Flood Control regulations do not require that lands in floodplain areas be filled to accomplish flood protection, only II that development be floodproofed above future flooding elevations. -38- Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 4 Landfill has been the conventional method of floodproofing in the Green River Valley however, other alternatives are available. pg. 60 The vegetation map is very general and not completely consis- tent with the Renton Wetlands report and other existing field 12' inventories. Further we do not agree that trees in this area will tolerate a heavy layer of crushed rock and resulting soil _J compaction. Tree _inventories should be done in the context of site and open space planning, considering opportunities to mass greenbelt areas around important trees and other significant vegetation or wetland areas. Saving individual trees without attendant plant and soil support systems will not enhance the surviv- ability of the trees or their significance as part of the overall site plan. pg. 81a Access to Monster Road to the west via a bridge across the pump- ing plant outlet channel may result in a hazardous and ineffi- cient intersection without substantial improvements to Monster Road. Although the EIS suggests that Monster Road should be upgraded, it should go on to discuss the specific improvements proposed, a schedule for their implementation and how these improvements will be funded. The statement suggests an alternative westerly access from the Black River site by extending the west perimeter road in Earlington Park to the north. Such an extention would appear to require a cross1og of the planned flood storage pond upstream of the P-1 pumping plant which would be inconsistent with pro- grams under study to enhance the storage pond for wildlife and 14 recreation purposes. The final EIS should clearly document the need under any circumstances for a westerly access from the site particularily for site plans which would concentrate development on the eastern part of the site. pg. 82 The mitigating measures proposed under fire services do not deal with the impacts and concerns expressed by theFire Marshall in 15' Appendix D; specifically, that "further development in this area should be limited until such time as improvements can be _ made to provide timely first response capabilities." pg. 85 Field inventories ari recreation analysis currently being con- ducted for the East :Ade Project have not concluded that heavy vegetation on the Black River woods site preclude opportunities /� for passive forms of recreation. To the contrary, the site is seen to have outstanding potential for scientific, educational and interpretive forms of recreation with very minor site alter- ations to improve access. -39- Mr. David Clemens May 29, 1981 Page 5 Conceptual recreation plans for the East Side Project will be • completed later this year. A significant component of these plans will be recreation guidelines dealing with the relation- ship of the East Side project rights-of-way with other adjacent park and open spaces as well as trail linkages between Green River parks and other facilities. Trail corridors through the Black Ri"er woods and Earlington Park areas will be more definitive at that time and hopefully can be incorporated into site development plans. pg. 88 The term "wetland treatment" needs additional definition. ' Discharging storm drainage immediately into the Black River channel where residence time in a wetland environment may 1$ tend to enhance the quality of the water leaving the channel should be compared with the effect such discharges will have on the health and ecological viability of the wetland. — pg. 109 Tables showing acreages for different uses and percentages of expected site coverage for these uses under the several /9 alternatives are very confusing and not consistent with textual descriptions of the alternatives describing how much of the site will be developed and how much will be left in open space. — Further, these acreages and percentages are not consistent ],zo with one another throughout much of the EIS (e.g. , pg. 2, pg. 15 and pg. 55). The concentrated development alternative may not result in — reduced building space and profitability if transfer of development credits concept is applied. Alternative 2 should be expanded or another alternative should be developed to discuss such an option. —' Thank you for the opportunity to review the statement.

Pl a;:.li ng Division HR:le cc: Bob Edmundson, County SEPA Coordinator Herb Young, Surface Water Management -40- Response to Comments from the King County Department of Planning and Community Development Comment Number: 1 The conceptual site plan for the proposed rezone action has indicated that a 50-150 foot buffer preserved from development would be maintained along the southern property line, which would ensure that the valuable Springbrook Creek riparian edge would remain undisturbed. Also, see com- ment 1 on page 19 of this EIS. Comment Number: 2 This Draft and Final EIS are intended to address the environmental impacts of the proposed rezone and the total proposal. Development parameters have been assumed to permit reasonable analysis of impacts which may occur as a result of development, although specific development plans have not been developed. Specific site plans and detailed economic and groundwater anal- yses, as well as tree inventories, and traffic and parking data will be developed if and when site specific development plans are proposed. The scheduling for the subsurface coring program will be decided by the City of Renton Environmental Review Committee. As noted in response to comment number 1, page 14, establishing the propriety of a rezone proposal lies with the proponent. If the support provided by the applicant and evaluated for its environmental impacts herein are insuf- ficient, the proposal may be modified or rejected. Comment Number: 3 According to Jeanette Veasey of the King County Parks Planning Department, the King County Parks and Open Space General Obligation Bond Proposal is tentatively scheduled to be placed on the ballot in Fall of 1982. However, Ms. Veasey indicated that the riparian forest on the site is not included in the acreage to be considered for acquisition. Comment Number: 4 In as much as 78% of riparian forest will be removed, the proposal is not consistent with the Balanced Development Objective. The proposal is gener- ally a tradeoff between private gain as well as additional commercial and -41- I industrial facilities for the city and the transformation of a natural area. This tradeoff will be evaluated during consideration of the rezone proposal and at further points in the review of specific site plans. Comment Number: 5 Please refer to the conceptual site plan on page viii of the Final EIS ' for graphic depiction of the proposed P-1 storage pond in relation to the site. Comment, Number: 6 To reflect the concern raised in the letter from the King County Planning Division, the following information is hereby inserted in the discussion of "Parks and Recreation - Impacts," on pages 9 and 85. of the Draft EIS, as follows: "An increase in demand for recreational outlets will be created on the site with the addition of approxmiately 4,100 em- ployees." According to Mr John Webley, City of Renton Parks and Recreation Director, there is no accepted set of standards for determining park and recreation facility demand based upon projected employment. However, at the time specific site plans are developed, the proponent will work with the City of Renton Park and Recreation Department to develop on-site recreational facilities in order, to mitigate demand generated by the proposed develop- ment for existing off-site recreational facilities. (Source: Telephone conversation with Mr. John Webley, Director. of Parks and Recreation for the City of Renton, March 11, 1982.) Comment Number: 7 For a discussion of the Renton Wetlands Report please refer to the response to comment 8, letter from the U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation Service on page 11 of the Final EIS. The following discussion of the City of Renton Comprehensive Parks and Recreation Plan is hereby inserted into the Draft EIS on page 44 as follows: -42- . "This document contains an inventory and evaluation of existing recreation condi- tions by geographical area, as well as recommendations for future acquisition and development of parklands. Specific • to the subject proposal, a graphic on page G-15 of the report indicates that a portion of the subject site is desig- nated for acquisition as wetlands. On • page H-1 of the Plan, the Summary of Recommended Acquisition Priorities ranks wetland acuqisition as the fourth prior- ity. According to the Plan, $400,000 was budgeted for wetland acquisition for 1980. None of the budgeted funds have been allo- cated to purchase of the Black River forest. " Comment Number: 8 According to the project soils engineer, the topsoil on the site is intended to remain to serve as a mat separating the fill and construction machinery from the silty fine sand underneath, which, if disturbed, would turn to unsupporting mud. Comment Number: 9 On pages 3 and 56 of the Draft EIS, it is suggested that temporary storm water detention and settling facilities be installed during the construction period to collect silt and minimize turbidity. This mi- tigation may be required as a condition of project approval, in which case, the developer will install the facilities. This EIS has addressed the impacts of the rezone of the site from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) . When specific development plans are proposed, supplemental environmental analysis may be required in accord with the SEPA guidelines. At such time, engineering information and details re- sonable related to the proposal's definiteness will be prepared. Comment Number: 10 It is the intention of the designers of the East Side Drainage Project and consistent with the City of Renton policy that storm water runoff be discharged from the site to the P-1 pump station as quickly as pos- sible before the peak flow from upstream reaches it. The proximity of the subject property to the P-1 Channel precludes the need for on-site -43- • storm water detention, subject to previously discussed provisions to insure discharge water quality. Comment Number: 11 Comments noted. Comment Number: 12 A review has been made of the various existing studies of the vegetative character of the subject property and it was concluded that the discrep- ancies between them are not of sufficient, magnitude to affect the con- clusions respectively drawn. If rezoning of the site is granted, more specific analysis will be provided regarding the compatibility of the riparian vegetation with the precise development proposal. Comment Number: 13 As indicated in the response to comment 2, above, when specific site devel- opment plans are proposed following granting of the rezone, then supple- mental environmental analyses, including a tree inventory, may be required by the Renton Planning Department pursuant to the SEPA Guidelines. -44- Comment Number: 14 It is intended that Monster Road be improved to a minimum two-lane roadway with no parking. Right-of-way should be retained in areas where there are existing or possible intersections with driveways and/ or streets to permit the addition of auxiliary turning lanes where traffic volumes warrent. The funding for any of the improvements outlined is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. The costs of improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should be allocated in proportion to the peak hour traffic volumes generated by this proposal compared with the peak hour traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development potentials for this and other parcels in the area) , it is impractical to specify a precise proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more re- fined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic assignment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. Final determination of funding will be negotiated with the City using the proportional use formula as a basis. The westerlyconnection could divert upto 25 percent of the traffic generated by the Black River Office Park and a like percentage of the traffic generated by Earlington Park. This mitigating measure is recom- mended since diversion of travel to the west would tend to slow down traffic growth on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way. Such an improve- ment would simply decrease the length of the peak period in the vicinity of the project. This improvement would not eliminate nor result in an improved level of service on these routes since conditions already operate at LOS E (capacity) . -45- Comment Number: 15 Please refer to the added mitigation to offset fire protection impacts, stated as the response to comment 1, letter from the City of Renton Fire Marshall, on page 49 of the Final EIS. Comment Number: 16 To reflect the concerns of the King County Planning Division response letter, the final sentence of the discussion of "Parks and Recreation - Existing Conditions," on page 85 of the Draft EIS, is hereby revised to read as follows: "The site is presently heavily vegetated, which precludes any opportunity for trad- itional \ forms of active recreation, but would support scientific, education and interpretative forms of passive recreation with minor site alteration to improve access." Comment Number: 17 Comment noted. Comment Number: 18 Please refer to the response to comment 5, letter from the Seattle District Corps of Engineers, on page 6,, and U.S. Department of Interior eouunent 3, -page 19 of the Final EIS. Comment Number: 19 A comparative review of the information contained within the text of the alternatives discussion on pages 109-111 and that on Table 10 on page 112 of the Draft EIS does reveal discrepancies between them. To correct the inaccuracies, the text of the respective alternatives is hereby revised to reflect the percentages listed on Table 10 entitled "Comparative Analyses of Alternatives," -46- Comment Number: 20 To correct the inaccuracies in open space and riparian forest calculations the following revisions are hereby made: The initial sentence on page 2 of the Draft EIS is revised to read as follows: "Development of the proposal will necessi- tate removal of 46.11 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site." Also, the sentence describing "Flora - Unavoidable Adverse Environmental Impacts," on page 15 of the Draft EIS is hereby revised to read as follows: "About 77 percent of the natural riparian vegetation on the site. would be removed." This impact would be partially offset by the introduction of landscaping on the project site. Comment Number: 21 An additional alternative depicting concentrated development has been included in this Final EIS, as depicted on the conceptual site plan on the following page. Project design would include the replace- ment of scattered smaller structures with three larger, 6 to 10 story structures. The height would be determined in part by the adequate ratio of parking which could be installed on the site with this alternative. This alternative would result in 29% of the site being developed with 24.7 acres (42%) of the riparian forest preserved from development. The largest nodes of preserved riparian forest vege- tation are illustrated on the site plan. These would include areas of : Node A = 9 acres Node B = 6 acres Node C = 5 acres The remaining 4.7 acres are included in smaller lineal connections between the more prominant nodal areas. The feasibility of this alter- native depends upon future construction costs and market conditions. -46a- . , • . . , • , . . . . , . . - . . . • *... :.L A•- t K RIVER 0FFICc .

Its impact is very similar to that of the Earlington Park Project. To look at one requires considering the overall effect of the total development in the area and its impact on present city services. The mitigating measures expressed on page 82 do not demonstrate how the developer plans to provide the necessary fire services for the area. Our concerns are in regard to site access and timely response to the area. The present site access is limited to essentially a one-way response from the main station at South 2nd and Mill Ave So.. It cannot be assumed that the response will always come from the station, since many times the equipment is in the district on inspection and detail. Access to the proposed development from the north is restricted by nat- ural and man-made barriers. The steep hillside and railroad right-of-way prohibit travel directly from the north. Trucks on detail in the north would have to back- track through Renton in the event of an alarm,in a building located in this de- velopment. The private fire protection proposed is an important aspect of the project but it cannot completely substitute for a .basic fire response. The need for addition- al fire facilities located in the valley presents itself with this development. The purpose of the SW 19th and Lind Ave S. W. side was dedicated just for this purpose. Mitigation of the response time problem.could be accomplished by the construction of a station at that site, providing an engine company staffed on a 24-hour basis with 3 personnel. • Consideration should be given now to providing a method of funding and timetable f r'-` nstruction of this station. V;;;1.--2 //)i' ,ill /JAMES F. MATTHEW' Fire Marshal . • JFM/wp -AP- Response to Comments from the City of Renton Fire Marshall Comment Number: 1 In order to incorporate the concerns of the Fire Marshall regarding the lack of available fire protection services to the proposed development, the following mitigation is hereby added to the lists on pages 8a and 83 of the Draft EIS, as follows: "The community facilities charge established by the City will in part provide for future fire station improvements. As a result, other sources of capital funding will be required, in addition to the recurring annual costs of personnel and similar services." Comment Number: 2 The project is proposed to be constructed in two phases with Phase 1 accessed by a single road connecting to the road system to serve the proposed Earlington Park development adjacent to the south of the site. Phase 2, on the western portion of the site, will connect to the Phase 1 road system and also be served by a secondary access to Monster Road across the P-1 drainage channel. Thus, at project completion, the total site would be served by roads extending to both the east and west. Also, please refer to the response to comment 1, above. -49- OF R4,4, THE CITY OF RENTON U ®10 MUNICIPAL BUILDING 200 MILL AVE.SO. RENTON.WASH.98055 m • BARBARA Y. SHINPOCH. MAYOR ® POLICE DEPARTMENT (c, HUGH R. DARBY. CHIEF .o P *4-0 SEP1 040 MEMORANDUM • March 31 , 1981 TO: Dave Clemons, Planning Department • FROM:. Lt. Don Persson SUBJECT: BLACK. RIVER OFFICE PARK This development will have an impact on police services in three area that are not adequately addressed in the preliminary impact statement. They are: (1 ) Traffic Problems Every roadway into the area is currently operating at its peak level . The addition of phase one of this project without the completion of the entire roadway system needed for both phase one and two would put a burden on the roadway system that would generate numerous traffic collisions and traffic tie-ups. This would dictate additional traffic enforcement and traffic accident enforcement in the area that would put an additional burden on the. Renton Police Department Traffic Division. Thus, it is imperative that the entire roadway system for both phase one and phase tHo be built prior to any construction. (2) Police Services Since the initial questions were asked ', the police department in regards to the impact of this development, several other projects within the city have been started or completed.. Due to these projects, this development will have a major impact that cannot be adequately handled without some mitigating measures such as: (1) all buildings in the area be prewired for intrusion alarms; (2) exterior lighting be placed so it shines in on the building rather than being placed on the building shining outward. Exterior lighting, when placed on the side of a building so that it shines outward blinds the police officer who has to respond to the business during the hours of darkness. (3) dead bolts installed on all doors; (4) large, easily readable building numbers on all buildings; (5) no excavation work on Saturdays or Sundays unless the contractor hires an offduty Renton Police officer -50- MEMORANDUM - Page 2 to monitor the overweight and tracking violations that are generated from this type of operation. (3) Noise The department's concern on noise generated from this type project is in two areas. (1 ) Construction Noise. The hours of construction should be regulated from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday through Friday, 10:00 to 4:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays. Further, the construction workers should not be allowed to play their stereo systems on the job site as they try to have their stereo systems louder than the construction equipment, which generates numerous complaints from residents in the area.And this particular area will be a problem due to its closeness to Burlington Hill and the new housing development being built behind Sears. (2) Railroad crossings should ' be of the new rubber type to reduce the amount of noise when cars and trucks pass over the crossings late at night. DRP:bf • -51- Response to Comments from the City of Renton Police-Department Comment Number: 1 It is acknowledged that much of the road system currently operates at capacity. However, not all intersections nor all road sections operate at this level. It is also acknowledged that there is likely to be an increase in the number of accidents resulting from the in- creased traffic volume that would be generated by this and other projects in the vicinity. While it is a general rule that the traffic accident rate increases once a roadway operates at or beyond capacity, the traffic accident history in the vicinity of the project does not support this generalization. Based on several years of traffic accident history data, the traffic accident rate has been equal to or less than the rate of increase in traffic volume. The creation of the road system west of the site is not expected to meas- urably reduce the number of accidents that would occur as a result of this project; rather, it will simply shift the location of where those accidents might occur. As stated in the Traffic Analysis in Appendix B of the Final EIS, because many of the intersections in the site vicinity currently operate at capacity and because relatively little can be done to increase the capacity of these intersections and/or freeway, there will be several impacts associated with this or any new development in Renton: *Capacity conditions at key locations will extend over longer periods of time such that hour-long capacity conditions today may extend for more than one hour in the future. •People will seek alternative routes to avoid. congestion. -Some people may shift their mode of travel to transit or may choose to carpool, vanpool, or fleet ride to and from work. -52- Recommended mitigations for congestion are described in the discussion of "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," on pages 7-8 and 81a of the Draft EIS. In addition, the following miti- gation is hereby added to the list on pages 7 and 8 of the Final EIS as follows: •The City could- encourage the use of alternative modes of transportation by installing paid parking areas, reducing the parking supply, and designating a portion of the lot for carpool use." The developer shall provide an operational traffic analysis for each phase of development when specific site plans are available. As indicated on page 2 of the Traffic Analysis. in Appendix B of this Final EIS, during Phase 1 all project traffic will enter and exit via the Earlington Park development to the south. It is, there- fore, not considered necessary to construct the complete roadway system prior to construction of Phase 1 of the proposed development. The developer will participate in street and intersection improvements, including the intersection of Monster Road and Sunset Boulevard, Monster Road and the roadway to be constructed along the western peri- meter of the Earlington Park development, paralleling the alignment of the proposed Valley Parkway. There may be other traffic operation improvements which may be made at some intersections in the vicinity of the project. However, such detailed improvements can not be reliably forecast because of the wide range of development potentials for the project. Such detailed analysis will be provided at the time a more specific proposal is developed. Please refer to the letter from Mr. , - Richard Houghton, Renton Public Works Director, on the final page of this Final EIS. - -53- Comment Number: 2 To reflect the concerns of the Police Department comment letter, the lists of mitigations regarding police protection on pages 8-9 and 83-84 of the Draft EIS are hereby expanded to include the following: " - All doors should be equipped with dead bolt locks. - All buildings should be prewired for intrusion alarms. - Indirect exterior building lighting should be utilized. - Large, easily-read numbers should be placed on all buildings. - No excavation work should be conducted on the weekends." Comment Number: 3 The suggested mitigations involving construction hours and rubber- ized railroad crossings have been included already on pages 5 and 72-73 of the Draft EIS. To reflect the concerns of the Police Department comment letter, the following mitigation is hereby added to the lists on pages 5 and 73 of the Draft EIS: " - The volume of radios and stereo systems utilized by construction workers should be restricted to a level which does not intrude upon nearby resid- ential uses." -53a- WRITTEN COMMENTS FROM NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTS, COMMUNITY GROUPS, AND OTHER INTERESTED PRIVATE PARTIES AND RESPONSES TO COMMENTS • • aLF��3 t;51 "rlkt.+��Q.,AM (7. . j , r,y1,t4.4, ,,k, :;'4 ;7 b 1,, • LCL rw = „*��� .

Municipal Building 200 Mill Ave. So. Renton, Wa. 98055 Dear Mr. Clements, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the DEIS for the Black River Office Park. On behalf of Seattle Audubon, I must say it was discouraging to see this document so soon after Renton' s very commendable Wetlands Study; and its rec- ommendations. More on this later in the letter. The Black River Office Park DEIS is generally clearly written and adequate in meeting SEPA guidelines.. however, two _ parts of the statement should be strengthened. In the alter- native section, alternative two of a lower intensity develop-. f ment is hardly analyzed at all. Certainly some pros and cons of such an alternative development scheme should be .addressed. — Secondly, the hydrologic analysis leaves. many questions unan- swered. Where does the water in the Black River forest come from--overflow of the Black River channel-Springbrook Creek, 2 groundwater seepage, or gravity flow from Earlington Hill to the north? What is the yearly or seasonal fluctuation of water levels on various parts of the site? At the very least some site testing as included in Appendix B should have been dis- cussed,. and such sites monit;.red over several months ' time. . The property is an important wetland which provides consider- able flood storage , and the riparian forest species (notably the Oregon Ash and Black Cottonwood) are dependent on high . water levels for most of the year. Although the idea of leaving some of the site undisturbed . is a' good one,; it is very unlikely such a small tract (13 acres) . will survive as riparian forest. On page 19 of the Renton 3 WetlandsStudy, it states, " . . .at least 40 acres of wetland in one contiguous block would have to be retained in its natural con- dition in order for the riparian forest to continue as a func- tioning habitat. " If a large part of the natural wetland is — filled, then what remains will slowly but surely die off. To • preserve the uniqueness of the riparian forest, the site itself • must be mostly preserved. The proposed re-zone of the site to M-P would contradict most of the natural systems goals of the 1981 Renton Policy . • —54— 2 . Element (see pp,19-2L in EIS) . Furthermore, the Black - River woods were identified in the 'Renton Wetlands Study as the number one wetland area for preservation. The woods have a tremendoiis present value for flood storage and as a green- belt or urban separator. They provide homes and resting places for many wildlife species, and serve as a close-in • "outdoor laboratory" for education and scientific study.. Surely greater Seattle will need more offices and busi- ness parks, but at what price? On page 102 the EIS preparers. admit,. "Implementation of the proposed project will convert' the best remaining riparian forest in the Seattle area to a warehousing/office park. " Surely alternative sites are avail- able for such facilities at a lower environmental cost than the loss of the Black River Forest,. Please notify us of any .public hearings about the re-zone of this property, to my attention,, Sincerely yours, • Jed iiarshall Seattle Audubon Wetlands Committee • • • -55- Response to Comments from the Seattle Audubon Society Comment Number: 1 Comment noted. The discussion of the impacts of Alternative 2 on page 110 of the Draft EIS in relation to those of the proposal quantifies the differences between the two development options. The major benefits of a less intensive alternative are enumer- ated in the impacts discussion, whereas its major drawback in- volves its economic infeasibility. A modified alternative has been added to the Final EIS and is discussed in the response to comment 21, letter from the King County Department of Planning and Community Development, on page 46a of the Final EIS. Comment Number: 2 The consulting firm of Entranco Engineers has conducted a Drainage Analysis, the results of which are included as Appendix D in this document. The local storm drainage patterns are detailed on page 7 of that report. Comment Number: 3 Short-term retention of the site in its undeveloped state will be addressed as part of the rezone approval (see the response to comment 1, on page 14 of this document.) The City could also be constrained from allowing development if the environment is determined to be signi- ficantly adversely affected by such development. According to the City of Renton Planning Department, long-term preservation of the site in its natural state could provide the City an opportunity to purchase and/or encourage dedication of portions of the property for public ownership by the property owner. -56- Comment Number: 4 Comment noted. The proposed action, which would be consistent with the land uses proposed to the south of the site, may be considered as "in-fill" growth in that it is located in close proximity to an urban center. It is acknowledged, however, that about 1,000 acres in Renton presently zoned for Manufacturing Park already feature or are currently developing street access and utilities necessary for industrial devel- opment of this type. As stated on page 97 of the Draft EIS, the •site is unique as one of two sites in the Valley equipped with reciprocal switching from two railroad lines without penalty to the shipper, in most cases. The light warehousing use proposed for the site would take advantage of this feature. • -57- - • • GREEN RIVER STUDY GROUP P.O. Box 772, Kent, Wash. 98031 • a �-- May 26, 1981 Mr. David Clemens, Acting Planning Director City of Renton Planning Department Municipal Building 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 I have reviewed the Black River Office Park DEIS -and I am primarily con- cerned about the impact of this project on a unique wildlife habitat. I am also concerned about the effects on traffic of this development and others planned for this area. The Black River Office Park is to be:built on a 70 acre parcel that is a unique example of a climax riparian forest. According to the City of Renton Wetland Study (February, 1981), the Black River Forest is "the most valuable wetland within the City".(pg. 11) According to the DEIS (pg. 63) "this tract -- of wetland remains for both wildlife and plants an especially large, mature and varied habitat, considering its urban location. As such, it is one of the only habitats suitable for certain species in the Seattle metropolitan area." Admittedly the proposed development will attempt to leave 22% of the native vegetation in large areas, particularly along the Black River. But, according to the informationon page 61 of the DEIS, the trees in this area areaall shallow rooted and will not survive the soil compaction from heavy traffic or paving. These trees areaalso susceptible to wind damage, and the thinning and clearing during development will magnify the wind damage problem. It seems clear that the efforts to mitigate the impacts of development on the Black River Forest are of questionable effectiveness. Any development on this site will destroy a unique and irreplaceable habitat, and there is no way to mitigate its loss. The impact of the area's transportation system is clearly negative. The development will generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day in an area where the LOS is E to F at the present time. (At no point in this DEIS did I see LOS ratings for the affected arterials and intersections. My information comes from the Earlington Park DEIS.) When the traffic from this project is combined with that of other developments in the area, the increase in truck and automobile traffic will be substantial. People will surely seek alternative routes to avoid congestion, but the aternatives in this area are few. Unfortunately, there is little that can realistically be done to improve the capacity of efficiency of I-405, Grady Way, or Rainier Avenue. The already severe congestion will get worse, - -58- Black River Rorest Office Park DEIS Page 2 GREEN RIVER STUDY GROUP P.O.

Our client' s primary concern regarding the rezone and ultimate development of the office park and rail-served warehouse is the impact such use will have on the Indian archaeological sites in that location. The assessment done by the Office of Public Archaeology of the University of Washington appended to the draft EIS is an excellent first step toward proper protection of this property. It is our position, however, that further studies need be done as recommended by the Office of Public Archaeology prior to the final EIS and, of course, prior to the actual rezone. Unless full information is obtained on this issue, a final EIS would never be determined adequate under state law. The Washington Supreme Court has recognized the adoption of the State Environmental Property Act (SEPA) as "an attempt by the people to shape their future environment by deliberation, not default. " Stempel v. Department of Water Resources, 82 Wn.2d 109, 118 , 508 P.2d 166 (1973 . SEPA, therefore, "mandates governmental evaluation of environ- mental factors when choices are still available" . Eastlake Community Council v. Roanoke Assoc. , 82 Wn. 2d 475, 496, 513 P. 2d 36 (1973) . -61- Mr. David Clemens May 28 , 1981 Page Two Further stressing the importance and function of this informational purpose, +.he Supreme Court has declared: The clear mandate of SEPA, and the purpose behind the environmental impact statement requirement, is consideration of environmental values based on full information before a decision is made . . . one of the purposes of this complete information requirement is to help the agency decide what protective conditions are needed. Norway Hill v. King County Council, 87 Wn.2d 267, 279, 552 P. 2d 674 (1976) (emphasis in original) . We do not feel that a deferral of a full and proper analysis of this impact until the construction stage of this project is proper under the law. Case law in Washington requires full assessment of known impacts at the earliest stage possible. This rule is imminently reasonable j - in the instant case. The City has been asked to rezone the entire site but it has the. choice of rezoning just part of the property (see p. ix of EIS) . Until the actual location of archaeological sites are known, the City cannot make a reasoned decision about what part of the site should be left _ in its natural state. The means for such further assessment - subsurface coring - is available now, as acknowledged by the EIS. To defer complete analysis would make the EIS inadequate and any rezone decision improper. While we focus on this particular impact, we concur with those comments which we know you will receive regarding the project' s efi-^t on the physical environment. The removal of the riparian forest, displacement of a unique wetland, and detrimental effects on groundwater and surface water quality are all significant impacts of this project which should be fully considered by the City before taking this first step of rezoning. -62- • • Mr. David Clemens May 28, 1981 Page Three Finally, the Duwamish Tribe was not listed in the Draft EIS as a recipient of the document.

The mitigation outlined in the EIS does not show that the environmental damage can be re- duced to an acceptable level. That was the conclusion of the traffic analysis (D-8) as well as the vegetation and bird report (C-3) and the comments from the Renton Fire Marshall (D-5). Only Alternative 3 will retain riparian forest habitat in an .mount large enough to afford significant protection of its unique qualities and this altern- ative was given little discussion,. Acquisition of this property for a public park was dismissed as unlikely, however, that remains a very viable option, • j The uniqueness of the Black River forest is well-recognized and the fact that the site remains high on a list of priority projects for a proposed County Parks and Open Space bond issue should not be ignored; nor have other funding altern- _ atives been thoroughly explored. The recent Renton Wetlands Study indicates that a minimum of 40 contiguous acres of wetland must be preserved in order for the riparian forest to retain its current habitat functions, The EIS fails to relate the probable .long-term im- 2- pacts of partial development, whatever the scale, on the ability of any preserved areas of forest to survive. Recommendations on page C-3 seem to conflict with those of the soil report which indicate that extensive filling and an extensive surface water and ground water drainage system will be necessary. The issue of water quality is liCztly considered,.and cannot be isolated from that of adjacent projects, as yet uncompleted, whose runoff will also be 3 directed into the Black River channel. The ability of the small wetland area to accept and adequately treat an unlimited volume of runoff must not be assumed. _ The potential revenues to the City were cited as an economic benefit but no figures presented to show how these might offset added public costs necessitated 4 by development of this land. Is there certain funding for the major road im- provements that are discussed? Will police and fire .safety be reduced in other areas of the City? How might the proposed westerly access to this development for mitigation . — 5 of some traffic impacts affect preservation of the western half of the site should alternative 2 be chosen? • . There seems to be general agreemen-o among the various governmental bodies that a buffer zone of 200 feet is needed to afford some protection to a river Cv environment. What is the justification for this proposal's setback of 50 feet along the Black River channel? • -65 • - Page 2 EIS response There continues to be an abundance of undeveloped valley land which is already properly zoned for industrial purposes and where improvements, includ- ing rail, already exist. The demand for rail-served warehousing can be full- -7 filled elsewhere and, in fact, is planned elsewhere including a site adjacent to the subject property. These sites should be utilized before additional lands are rezoned for the same purpose. The City's Land Use Comprehensive plan dates back to the 19601s. Since then there have been several studies of the Black River forest which indicated ' its unique features as an environmentally sensitive and historical area, a fact e5 not earlier recognized. The new Plan .. visions proposed by the Planning Com- mission for this general vicinity indicate that reduced density of development and additional greenbelt area may be more appropriate. -r The EIS accurately notes that this proposed rezone represents a signifi- cant change in land use--replacement of one-of-a-kind old growth riparian forest with an office park/warehouse complex now increasingly familiar in our valley. Perhaps no other area remains on the valley floor where such a rezone could effect such a profound alteration of the environment. Attempts to preserve a portion of this sensitive forest habitat are not guaranteed of success. The balance of development and preservation of open space that is sought is best achieved by allowing this property to remain a part of the open space network proposed for the valley floor.

Comment Number: 2 The discussion of "Flora - Impacts," on page 63 of the Draft EIS, which is condensed from the full discussion on page C-3 of Appendix C, does acknowledge the risk of partial development on the remainder of the riparian forest. It is noted that gradual losses and elim- ination of certain plants and species would likely occur. Comment Number: 3 The issue of water quality and wetland treatment for this and other proposed development in the immediate' vicinity of the subject site has been addressed in the Water Quality Impact Assessment completed by the consulting firm of Entranco Engineers. The full text of that analysis has been included in this document as Appendix A. As dis- cussed on page A-3 of that report, the use of oil/water separators, in conjunction with the proposed wetland treatment, gabion structures, and frequent street cleaning, should result in sufficient water qual- ity treatment so that no discernable degradation should occur to Springbrook Creek.

Comment Number: 4, continued. several mitigations have been added in response to comment 2, letter from the City of Renton Police Department ( on page 53a of this docu- ment) , intended to reduce potential impacts on police protection services. Comment Number: 5 It is acknowledged that the mitigating measure to build a roadway connection to Monster Road would have some impacts on the preservation of vegetation on the western half of the site, since either a direct connection to Monster Road or the extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park would need to cross certain drainage areas and would temporarily disrupt the flow of water to vegetation in this area. The extension of roadways and utilities into the westerly portion of this site could also precipitate future development in these areas, thus reducing the size and value of the remaining riparian forest. Comment Number: 6 As stated on page 43 of the Draft EIS, the Washington State Shoreline Management Act applies to the areas 200 feet from either side of the Black River Channel, measured from the ordinary high water mark. The SMA regulations restrict the type of development permissible within certain distances from designated water bodies. However, they do not prohibit development within 200 feet of the Black River Channel. The rezone approval, Substantial Development permit (SMA regulations) and site development permit can be conditioned upon preservation of vege- tative buffers adjoining the Black River Channel. Comment Number: 7 The proposed action, which would be consistent with the land uses pro- posed to the south of the site, may be considered as "in-fill" growth in that it is located in close proximity to an urban center.

The lead agency, the City of Renton, requested the project sponsor, Alterra Corporation, provide additional information on the water quality impacts attributable to the project. Specifically, the Environmental Review Committee requested additional study regarding the ". . .ability of the Black River channel to handle runoff from this project in light of Earlington Park and other developments in the vicinity while maintaining a 'wetland treatment' . " DESCRIPTION OF ANALYSIS In the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment (Entranco, 1981) , it was determined that the old Black River channel could provide sufficient wetland treatment for stormwater runoff from Earlington Park and Earlington Industrial Park for a one-year storm. To determine the impact of runoff from the Black River Office Park development, runoff from the total area discharging into the Black River channel was calculated to determine the effect of combined discharge on wetland treatment. The total drainage area includes Earlington Park, Black River Office Park, Earlington Woods PUD, and a portion of the hillside north of the Black River Office Park. The total drainage area for specific land uses was calculated and runoff coefficients were determined. The peak runoff rate was then calculated using the rational method. The total peak runoff for a one-year storm for proposed (post- development) land use conditions was determined to be 110 cfs. 1 • SUMMARY OF EARLIPIGTOPI PARK WATER QUALITY IMPACT ASSESSMENT The existing water quality in the Black River watershed and the impacts of stormwater runoff and mitigative measures have been thoroughly analyzed and discussed in the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment by Entranco Engineers. (A copy of the assessment is included by reference. ) The following conclusions can be drawn from the Entranco report: 1 . Existing water quality in Springbrook Creek is relatively poor and only slightly better than typical stormwater runoff quality. Springbrook Creek exceeds water quality standards for dissolved oxygen, total • coliforms, nitrate, ammonia, and phosphorus. 2. Existing poor water quality in Springbrook Creek is attributable to stormwater discharge from existing commercial , industrial , and residential land uses upstream in the watershed. 3 . The existing old Black River channel is providing wetland treatment (physical , chemical , and biological removal of pollutants) for stormwater discharging from the existing 60-inch storm sewer outfall . The concentration of most pollutants is lower in wetland-treated runoff than in Springbrook Creek. 4. The quality of wetlands in the old Black River channel has been degraded . by the present discharge of storm runoff. Most notable are accumulations of floating oil and grease and other debris. 5. Under existing conditions, the old Black River channel possesses little, if any, value as fish rearing or spawning habitat. Downstream and adjacent upstream segments of Springbrook Creek similarly provide little or no value as spawning and/or rearing habitat for anadromous fish species and are therefore of value only for anadromous fish passage. Other system characteristics, particularly the P-1 pump station, are likely to be more limiting to fish passage than water quality. • 6. Previous work by Entr:.nco Engineers and others has demonstrated that significant fractions (60 to 95 percent) of stormwater pollutants are contained in suspended and settleable forms that are potentially , - treatable by sedimentation. 7 . Use of the old Black River channel wetlands would provide sedimentation treatment as well as chemical and biological removal of stormwater pollutants from existing and post-development runoff (Earlington Park and Earlington Industrial Park) from stormflows equal to or less than the estimated annual discharge rate of 45 (cubic feet per second) cfs. APWA criteria for sedimentation basin design indicate that 2,030 square feet of sedimentation area are required for each cfs of stormwater discharge to remove particles (and associated pollutants) of 10 microns and larger. The old Black River channel occupies 97,500 square feet of surface area and actually exceeds the surface area (91,350 square feet) necessary to provide the proposed level of treatment. 8. Gabions should be installed in the old Black River channel to: (a) provide dead storage; (b) increase surface area of wetland contact; (c) reduce hydraulic scouring during storm events; ( d) provide for primary sedimentation separation; and (e) provide for accidental spill control . 9. The provision of wetland treatment as proposed, in conjunction with oil and grease separators and periodic street sweeping, should result in sufficient water quality treatment such that no significant impacts to Springbrook Creek will occur. The basis for this conclusion is derived from the fact that: (a) Springbrook Creek water quality is already very poor; (b) the post-development discharge from the project site will represent less than 6 percent of flow in- Springbrook Creek; and (c) wetland treatment is expected to provide water quality superior to water quality in Springbrook Creek. 3 • The following assumptions and limitations should be considered in reviewing this water quality impact analysis: 1 . According to DOE water quality regulations, existing water quality represents the water quality standard in those circumstances where existing water quality exceeds the designated water quality standard. 2. DOE water quality regulations contain a provision for nondegradation of existing water quality. 3. It is assumed that design criteria for water quality treatment facilities can he limited to consideration' of the annual discharge rate and that it is reasonable not to provide the same high level of treatment for larger storms of lesser frequency (5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year •design storms) . In this respect, water quality design criteria are intended to provide treatment for the majority of storm volume and not for maximum discharge rate. • 4. It is possible that pollutants that accumulate during periods of low flow (annual discharge rate and lower flows) may be flushed from the system during periods of high flow (storm flows exceeding annual discharge rate) . Provisions of gabions and dead storage, and the presence of wetland vegetation, should substantially reduce the probability of such flushing. 5. It is essential that all runoff be discharged to the upstream end of the old .131 ack River channel . • • • INFLUENCE ON WETLAND TREATMENT OF ADDITIONAL RUNOFF FROM BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK AND EARLINGTON WOODS PUD As indicated above, the combined post-development runoff from the Black River Office Park, Earlington Woods PUD, Earlington Park, and Earlington Industrial Park has been estimated at 110 cfs for a one-year storm. The old Black River channel provides approximately 90,000 square feet of wetland treatment area. As shown in Figure 1, this wetland area will remove all particles approximately 16 microns in diameter or greater for the design discharge rate of 110 cfs, Treatment for smaller streamflows will be greater and will remove particles smaller than 16 microns. • Entranco Engineers (1980) has reported that significant quantities of most stormwater pollutants are contained in the suspended and settleable solids fractions. These data provide the rationale for physical stormwater treatment and indicate that as much as 60 to 95 percent of stormwater • pollutants can be treated by physical removal of suspended and settleable solids. In a study of street surface runoff (Sarter, 1975) , it was found . that, with the exception of phosphorus and nitrogen, 70 percent of the pollutants measured (total solids, volatile solids, biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, Kjeldahl nitrogen,' nitrates, phosphates, total heavy metals, and total pesticides) were contained in particles 43 microns in diameter and larger (44 percent for phosphates) . Therefore, the treatment available in the old Black River channel is 'sufficient to remove more than 70 percent of most pollutants. • Ongoing research being carried out by the University of Washington includes observations supporting the wetland treatment concept (1981) . Although the final report has not been published, preliminary results suggest that a grass-lined channel 60 meters (197 feet) long will remove 80 to 100 percent of the initial lead concentration; the results for zinc, total suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand demonstrate similar tendencies. • • . . • • . . •. - • . - io4x .• , ... . _ . .. . . . . • . .. ... • , . -- , r •,•• ... .. - e . . . . . . . . . :. ... .. . • • . . . .•-•;-• ••• •:-.• ••• .•'.-.:•-.. -•-••'----...---:':--.•:-•:• • - . •- ::,•.• - , • . . . . .. .. • .' . . •. . . .. .. ... . . - • • 7: -•:, - . • % .

All of these studies support the adequacy of the old Black River channel to provide a high degree of water quality. treatment for the combined stormwater runoff from existing and proposed projects in the vicinity. EFFECT OF THE P-1 DETENTION BASIN The preliminary design of the Earlington Park storage pond (January 21, 1981) by the Soil Conservation Service shows the old Black River channel included in the total area of the storage pond. If this. design is used for construction, much of the old Black River channel would be eliminated and would no longer be available for wetland treatment. Although the storage pond itself would provide sedimentation treatment, this treatment would not occur prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. However, as shown in the water quality assessment for Earlington Park (Entranco, 1980) ,. the existing quality of Springbrook Creek is only slightly better than anticipated runoff quality, and it is doubtful that post-development runoff will result in any measurable increases in the pollutant concentrations in Springbrook Creek. CONCLUSION • The old Black River channel is of sufficient area and length to be able to provide adequate wetland treatment for the stormwater runoff from the Black • River Office Park and the other developments in the vicinity. This conclusion assumes the installation of. gabion structures and implementation • of supporting mitigative measures as proposed in the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment (Entranco Engineers, 1980) , and the Black River Office Park Draft EIS (R.W. Thorpe & Associates, 1981) . Discharge of all runoff to the upper terminus of the old Black River channel would also be required. • • • LIST OF REFERENCES . American Public Works Association, 1974.

W. Thorpe and Associates 815 Seattle Tower Third & University Seattle, WA 98101 SUBJECT: BLACK RIVER REZONE Dear Ms. Krouse: Thank you for asking The TRANSPO Group to expand on our preliminary assessment of traffic conditions associated with the proposed Black River Rezone. This letter presents an estimate of the daily and eve- ning peak hour trip generation, a general estimate of travel distribution and traffic assignment, a summary of anticipated traffic problems or concerns , and a list of reasonable mitigating measures. This letter also responds to comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) . We have duplicated much of the information contained in our March 29, 1981 preliminary assessment to avoid cross-referencing of information and to help readers unfamiliar with the background leading to the final environ- mental impact statement a more complete understanding of the traffic issues. We might also mention that in preparing this analysis, we met with Mr. Gary Norris, Traffic Engineer, and Mr. Dick Houghton, Acting Director of Public Works to discuss the specific level of detail that would be required in this analysis. We all concluded that the description of the development proposal as expressed in the rezone application was too general for detailed traffic operations analysis to be meaningful . Thus, we agreed that this general analysis was more appropriate and at such time as a specific project proposal is defined, a more detailed traffic analysis would need to be prepared by the project sponsor. Subsequent to this meeting I spoke with Mr. David Clements, Acting Planning Director. He indicated that he needed some traffic assignment information in order to estimate air quality impacts. Project Description This analysis is based on the site plan and project description which was provided by your office. From this information, we understand the project will include about 35.58 acres of office development and about 12.09 acres of warehousing. The warehousing is proposed to be served by rail The offices could be one or two stories in height, depending on the market for office space at the time the buildings are being designed. We understand the project is proposed to be constructed in two phases with access to Phase I provided by a single road that connects to the road system that serves the proposed Earlington Park development. The second phase, on the T«enh•three 1-18th :\venue Southeast • Bellevue, Washington 98007• (206) 641-3881 Ms. Deborah Krouse e November 20, 1981 , Page 2 � � Grow western portion of the site, will connect with the Phase I road system and plans a secondary access to Monster Road across the P-1 drainage channel . Trip Generation Trip generation estimates (number of cars in and out of the development) were made using a range of assumptions regarding possible building designs and functions (e.g, one-story or two-story office buildings; office park; or general office development, etc. ) The Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual , 1979 and Arizona DOT Trip Generation Intensity Factors, 1980 were the sources of trip generation rate information (trips per 1000 square feet) . Applying these trip generation rates to the proposed development, it was found that this development could generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day (vpd) . The evening peak hour for the warehousing portion of the project generally falls slightly before the traditional 4:30 to 5:30 PM evening peak hour. Nonetheless, because the office development will comprise the majority of this proposal , a 4:30 to 5:30 PM time period was used as part of. this analysis. Combined office and warehouse uses are forecasted to generate between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles per hour (vph) . Trip Distribution and Assignment The travel distribution for a development like the Black River Office Park is largely based on the distribution of populati;n since a majority of the trips to and from an employment center start or end at the employee's home. This distribution needs to be tempered by other travel patterns like those associated with general business activity (e.g. , sales) and service and delivery activities. During Phase I , all traffic will enter and exit via the Earlington Park development. The majority of this traffic is expected to travel along 7th Avenue to Rainier Avenue and Lind Avenue SW (about 70 percent) , while the remainder will use Powell Avenue to gain access to Grady Way. As the access road along the alignment of Valley Parkway is built, this route will also be used by traffic just for the valley area to the south. Because construction of this road is dependent on the action of another developer, no traffic was assigned to this route. Figure 1 shows the travel assignment that is expected to occur after full development, assuming that connection with Monster Road is provided. It can be seen that a large proportion of the traffic (about 25 percent) will be using Monster Road to Sunset Boulevard where it will split with approxi- mately 15 percent traveling north to nearby residential areas and to connect with I-5. The remainder will follow Sunset Boulevard east to Rainier Avenue where traffic will split with some continuing on east and the remainder turning north on Rainier Avenue. The majority of traffic destined to the south will continue to use 7th Street, Rainier Avenue, Powell Avenue and Lind Avenue, and Grady Way as primary access routes. This assignment llll� Ms. Deborah Krouse November 20, 1981 Page 3 @row • reflects both daily, and PM peak travel patterns. During the midday, I-405 and other major arteries are less congested than during the PM peak hour • so the traffic distributions for each are slightly different. Thus, during the peak hour, travel on minor roads and on routes that may appear to be out of direction is to avoid the congestion on more major, direct routes. Like the trip generation, the travel assignment shown depicts ranges of travel volumes that could potentially use the roadway system. The project generated traffic volumes are added to estimated 1984 traffic volumes (volumes without Black River Office Park) . This shows that Sunset Boulevard east of Monster Road could carry between 2,800 and 6,600 vpd and between 400 and 950 vph during the PM peak hour. Rainier Avenue S south of Grady Way could potentially serve between 66,780 and 76,750 vpd and 6,610 to 7,400 vph during the evening rush hour. Grady Way west of Powell Street is forecasted to carry between 13,490 and 18,400 vpd and 6,160 to 7,400 vph during the evening peak hour. Impacts As you know, a display of traffic volumes alone does not give a true impres- sion of the impacts that would be created from traffic generated by a new development. Rather, traffic volumes must be examined in the context of many factors including the street and intersection design, traffic control , and characteristics of the traffic flow. Techniques have been developed to incorporate these factors and are called level of service analysis. In urban areas these levels of service are measured at intersections. Unfor- tunately, the range of volumes that could be generated by this project is too broad to give meaningful results. Nonetheless , it is important for the City to have some feeling for the impacts that might be created. To provide a point of reference, along Rainier Avenue the street is now or will be (before this project is built) operating at capacity (LOS E) . Likewise, some of the major intersections along Grady Way are at or near capacity. Sunset Boulevard, except for the intersection at Rainier Avenue operates above capacity (approximately LOS C) . There is some potential relief to these capacity problems with the construction of Valley Parkway. While this and other improvements like widening of Grady Way will result in some relief to the local street system, the primary traffic arteries like I-405 and Rainier Avenue will continue to operate at capacity. Thus, even if the majority of the traffic generated by this proposal travels on routes that operate below capacity much of the volume will ultimately travel through one or more of the intersections or on a road that presently operates at capacity. As a consequence, the congestion during peak hours will become more severe resulting in more delay, assuming all drivers attempt to make their trip during the peak hour. In the last several years , other cities have experienced some of the same levels of congestion problems that now exist in Renton. Drivers have responded by modifying their travel habits to avoid this congestion by: The Ms. Deborah Krouse November 20, 1981 ;. : Page 4 Grovp • Changing the time they travel to and from work. This does not eliminate traffic but it spreads the peak hour over a longer period resulting in capacity conditions that may extend longer than one hour. • Change from driving alone to carpooling. • Change mode to use transit. The intersection of Monster Road and Sunset Boulevard should be upgraded to serve the increased volume and it is expected that the signal should be set into full operation in contrast to the present flashing operation. While Sunset Boulevard carries a relatively high volume of traffic, this inter- section is expected to operate at about LOS C or LOS D in 1984 with this project. Even though Sunset Boulevard is less congested than some other arterials , it does not provide a direct connection to a majority of desti- nations and it eventually intersects with more congested arterials. Thus, any advantage that can be achieved through using Sunset Boulevard as a bypass is offset by the out of direction travel and down stream congestion problems. As a consequence, Sunset Boulevard is not forecasted to be used to the extent that might appear appropriate at a first, cursory review. Following occupancy of Phase II , the street that would experience the largest proportional increase in traffic would be Monster Road. This road is pres- ently a very narrow winding road and has a moderate grade south of Sunset Boulevard, and has not been built to carry all of the volume that is likely to be generated by this project. The increased volume in combination with the substandard design of the road would probably contribute to an increase in the accident rate. In the evaluation of these impacts, it is very important to recognize that any new development in the City of Renton is going to have some individual or cumulative impact on the major streets in the vicinity of this project. Thus, the only way to ensure congestion levels will remain the same as they are today is to stop any and all new development or redevelopment that will add traffic to the street system. Mitigating Measures As discussed before, congestion will get worse or extend over longer time periods when this project is developed. Roads like Rainier Avenue and I-405 cannot be widened to increase their capacity so the impacts on these routes will be difficult to mitigate by applying traditional road construction solutions. Some road improvements that can be made include the upgrading of Monster Road 'to improve both horizontal and vertical alignment to eliminate line of sight restrictions, and enhance safety. Because of the proposed e Ms. Deborah Krouse 4k i : November 20, 1981 Page 5 @row construction of a road along the western edge of Earlington Park (along the alignment of the proposed Valley Parkway) , it is suggested that im- provements to Monster Road north of Earlington Park match with this road and extend north to the Sunset Boulevard. In addition, the Monster Road intersection with Sunset Boulevard should be examined at the time a more specific development proposal is proposed and any project-related channeli- zation or signalization improvements (e.g. , vehicle detection) that are warranted be made. There may be other traffic operations improvements that can be made at some intersections in the project vicinity but as noted earlier, such detailed improvements cannot be reliably forecast because of the wide range of development potentials for this project. Such a detailed analysis may be appropriate at the time a more specific proposal is developed. While the potential for physical construction solutions to solve problems is limited, there are a number of policy and program improvements that can be effective in reducing or eliminating impacts. These include the following: • Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. • If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide subsidy of bus passes as a company or office park benefit. • Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and carpool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park management should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. • As much as practical , office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 PM peak period, and thus have less impact on the already congested road system. • As an inducement to achieve these objectives, the City may want to consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by code to discourage the use of the single occupant vehicle. Another, less rigorous approach is to reserve a portion of the parking spaces for carpools. Because carpool incentives have not played a large role in the development of new employment centers, it is suggested that about 5 percent of the total number. of.parking spaces be reserved and that the Seattle- The Ms. Deborah Krouse b• .- , - "_ November 20, 1981 Page 6 wow • King County Commuter Pool monitor their use and increase the percentage of reserved spaces when use reaches 80 percent • occupancy. Many persons believe these policies are not as effective as physical solutions. -- Yet in this region in cities like Seattle and Bellevue where traffic volumes have reached capacity congestion levels , these types of policies have had a substantial impact on maintaining or decreasing the rate of increase of traffic growth. To illustrate the effectiveness of these policies, an in- crease of the average vehicle occupancy from 1.1 persons per vehicle to 1.25 persons per vehicle represents an enhanced level of service from LOS E (capacity) to LOS D. In a community like Renton where much of the employment is concentrated along several major employers, policies to encourage ride- sharing are increased. Response to Comments In addition to the above analysis we have been asked to respond to several of the comments that the City of Renton received on the DEIS. The following summarizes these responses. Renton Planning Staff - (June 8, 1981) In response to the desire for detailed traffic analysis, we met with the Director of Public Works and the City of Renton Traffic Engineer and it was determined that a detailed traffic analysis is not appropriate for this proposed rezone EIS since the very general nature of the proposal results in a broad range of potential traffic volumes and impacts. The range is too broad to make the detailed traffic analysis that is typically requested by the City meaningful . Please see the attached memo dated August 7, 1981. More important, the level of detailed traffic analysis typically requested by the City is not appropriate for inclusion in an environmental impact statement. We refer you to the State Environmental Policy Act and specifi- cally reference the following: WAC 197-10-440 (7) (i) WAC 197-10-440 (7) (ii ) WAC 197-10-440 (7) (a) (iv) Such detail is appropriate as part of detailed design studies. It is not important for the City to know detailed improvements that need to be made. Rather, it is essential that they know where improvements are needed and the general ability for the improvement to mitigate the impact. Because the City must give final design approval on any plans for improvements to the public road system, specifics regarding the design aspects of these improvements can be determined during the preliminary design phase of the preparation of plans, specifications and cost estimates. - e Ms. Deborah Krouse LC. A". November 20, 1981 4 , Page 7 The request to know the difference in impact between the 9,000 vpd and 34,000 vpd range of potential development options is somewhat mute since most major arterials presently operate at or beyond capacity (please see Police Department letter dated March 31, 1981) . We can understand that the City would like some quantified measure of the difference in impacts that would result from the wide range of options. We can understand that they may believe that a detailed estimate of delay or some other measure could be estimated. Unfortunately, the science of traffic engineering is not as discrete as other physical sciences like hydraulic or structural engineering. Often, people believe that the relationship between traffic volume and the street system is analogous to pouring water through a funnel such that when the water is poured in faster than it goes out, the funnel overflows the top. In the case of the street system, this analogy would mean that delays would simply become longer and longer. Fortunately, however, cars are not like water molecules - cars have drivers who make decisions. Experience shows that these drivers will withstand only so much inconven- ience (delay) and then they seek some alternative (seek the path of least resistance) . As we have discussed above, drivers will attempt to find another route (pour water into another funnel ) ; change the time that they travel (wait to pour water until the funnel is partially emptied or start to pour in water before the funnel is filled) ; or choose another mode like transit or carpooling (convert the water to steam so it can pass with less inter- ference) . Because of the dynamics of driver decision making, there is no reliable way to predict (at the level of detail requested in an EIS) these differences. Because many of the intersections on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way are already at capacity, it can only be said that these capacity conditions will continue and that the peak hour time periods will become longer. If the City chooses to actively encourage the use of transit and high occupancy vehicle modes as suggested in the Seattle-King County letter dated May 28, 1981, the length of these peak periods may be shortened. Unfortunately, there is not an exact method to assess the level of impact that is likely to occur if these mitigating measures are promoted. King County Planning and Community Development (May 29, 1981) It is intended that Monster Road be improved to a minimum two-lane roadway with no parking. Right-of-way should be retained in areas where there are existing or possible intersections with driveways and/or streets to permit the addition of auxiliary turning lanes where traffic volumes warrant. The funding for any of the improvements outlined is intended to be based on a proportional use formula. In other words, the costs for improvements to any connection with Monster Road and/or extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park should be allocated in proportion to the 71h8 Ms. Deborah Krouse >; Amp°. November 20, 1981 Page 8 r@Vp traffic volumes generated by this proposal compared with the total traffic volume using the section of road that is improved. Thus, costs would be allocated in proportion to the benefit received. Because of the wide range of potential volumes that could use this road (because of the wide range of development potentials for this and other parcels in the area) , it is impractical to specify a specific proportion at this point. It is suggested, therefore, that at the time a more refined development is planned for this site, the detailed traffic analysis and traffic assignment be used as a basis for determining the appropriate proportion of costs. Final determina- tion of funding should be negotiated with the City using the proportional use formula as a basis. The westerly connection could divert up to 25 percent of the traffic generated by the Black River Office Park and a like percentage of the traffic generated by Earlington Park. This mitigating measure is recommended since diversion of travel to the west would tend to slow down traffic growth on Rainier Avenue, I-405, and Grady Way. Such an improvement would simply decrease the length of the peak period in the vicinity of the project. This improvement would not eliminate nor result in an improved level of service on these routes since conditions already operate at LOS E (capacity) . Seattle King County Commuter Pool (May 28, 1981) The suggestions offered by the Seattle King County Commuter Pool are acknowl- edged. The success of the recommended measures may depend largely on the mix of tenants. In the event the office space is occupied by one or several large tenants, the possibility for these programs to be effective is enhanced. If, on the other hand, the office is oriented towards smaller tenants , the ability to coordinate these programs may be somewhat diminished. As a supple- ment to the mitigating measures proposed, it is recommended that these pro- grams be monitored such that they can be adjusted to respond to changes in the tenant mix and respond to the success and/or failure of any of the measures. If the demand for carpool and vanpool parking spaces increases , the propor- tion as recommended above should be increased. On the other hand, if certain programs prove to be unsuccessful , it is not prudent that they be continued at the recommended levels. City of Renton Police Department (March 31, 1981) It is acknowledged that much of the road system currently operates at capacity. We do not, however, agree that every intersection or every road section oper- ates at this level . We also generally concur that there is likely to be lc-;c. increase in the number of accidents resulting from the increased traffic vol- ume that would be generated by this and other and-other- projects in the area. While it is a general rule that the traffic accident rate increases once a roadway operates at or beyond capacity, the traffic accident history in the I,_ 71h8 Ms. Deborah Krouse � , November 20, 1981 7 .40 Page 9 Grove vicinity of the project does not support this generalization. Based on several years of traffic accident history, the traffic accident rate has been equal to or less than the rate of increase in traffic volume. The • creation of the road system west of the site is not expected to measurably reduce the number of accidents that would occur as a result of this project; rather, it will simply shift the location where those accidents might occur. Citizen Letter (May 27, 1981) It is acknowledged that the mitigating measure to build a roadway connection to Monster Road would have some impact on the preservation vegatation of the western half of the site since either a direct connection to Monster Road or the extension of the roadway along the west side of Earlington Park would need to cross certain drainage areas and would temporarily disrupt the flow of water and vegetation in this area. Green River Study Group (May 26, 1981) The comments offered by the Green River Study Group are discussed in this letter and mitigating measures are outlined. A discussion of funding for these improvements is also discussed above in the response to comments to the King County Department of Planning and Community Development. Department of Transportation (May 18, 1981) The comments offered by the Washington State Department of Transportation are acknowledged. The formula for funding any improvements outlined in the mitigating measures section of this letter have been discussed above in the response to the King County Department of Planning and Community Development. I trust this letter responds to the questions you and City staff have regarding traffic impacts generated by this project. If you have any questions, I encourage you to call me.

Houghton, Acting Public Works Director SUBJECT: Black River Office Park- Please be advised that David Markley of The Transpo Group, Bob Thorpe of R. W. Thorpe & Associates, Gary Norris and myself met to discuss the EIS for the subject proposal . From that meeting, we determined that the best approach would be a document which addressed the overall traffic impacts of the range of possible developments on that parcel of land. From such an analysis, we believe that we can develop a "feel" for the appropriate scale for the proposed development. When a definite proposal is secured for that parcel of land, the developer will be required to do an in-depth traffic operational study to define problem areas and offer measures of mitigation. This analysis will involve all critical intersections within an area defined by FAI 405 on the south, Sunset Highway on the north, Rainier Ave. on the east and West. Valley Highway on the west. The above should be placed as a condition for all permit processes regarding this parcel of property. If you have any questions, please contact Gary Norris. Thank you.

C1 int Morgan r rt .1 lr' APPENDIX D 122 DRAINAGE ANALYSIS SUPPLEMENT TO BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK EIS March 26, 1982 2 • I DRAINAGE ANALYSIS SUPPLEMENT TO BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK EIS • Hydrologic/Hydraulic Modeling • There have been at least two comprehensive hydrologic and hydraulic studies of flooding in the Eastside-Green River (e.g. , Springbrook Creek) drainage basin. The first study of note was a Watershed Work Plan developed by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) between 1965 and 1976, to assess the impact of a proposed flood control drainage project (namely, the P-1 Channel pro- ject) upon flooding in the Eastside-Green River area. The second comprehen- sive study of note was a Flood Insurance Study prepared under the sponsorship of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) . Both studies modeled the Eastside-Green River drainage basin using the SCS-curve number method and the SCS TR-20 hydrologic computer program. The studies also used the same design storm criteria. Although the same methodology was used by both studies, the results of the analysis are quite dissimilar. The reason for the difference can be attributed largely to the judgments made in estimating curve numbers, time of concentration, and channel flow velocities and in the attention given to the effect that flow retention-detention-control structures have in modi- fying the hydrograph. The SCS study also used a drainage area that was approximately 3% (0.7 sq. mi . ) larger than the drainage area used in the FEMA study. • Both studies used similar curve numbers in describing the rainfall-runoff relationship for the future condition in the drainage basin. Therefore, the total volumes of design storm runoff predicted by the two studies for the future condition are similar. This similarity is fortunate since the volume of runoff is singularly the most important parameter in determining the elevation of floodwaters in the lower portion of the Eastside-Green River basin. 1 The time distribution of flood flow arrival at the pump station is also im- portant to floodwater accumulation, but to a lesser extent. 1 1 The curve numbers used by the FEMA study for existing conditions are, however, significantly lower than the SCS curve numbers; therefore the runoff volume predicted by the FEMA study for existing conditions is approximately 20% less than the runoff volume predicted by the SCS study. For both present and future conditions, the estimated time of concentra- tion and the estimated flood flow channel velocities are respectively longer and lower for the FEMA study than the SCS study. The FEMA study also includes consideration of a greater number of structures that act to retain or detail storm runoff. As a consequence, the design storm runoff hydro- graph developed by the FEMA study exhibits an attenuation of peak flows and a much greater "spreading out" of storm runoff over time than the SCS hydro- graph. Figure 1 illustrates the difference in the runoff hydrographs developed by the SCS and FEMA studies. In our assessment of the two studies we observed that the SCS study devoted much more effort to the development of accurate curve numbers for each subbasin than did the FEMA study. The FEMA study, on the other hand, appeared to devote more effort to the definition and inclusion of channel restrictions that either detain and/or retain storm- water runoff flows. Stage-Storage Relationship The Stage-Storage curves of Figure 2 indicates the volume of flood storage that is available below a given elevation behind the Black River Pump Station. The upper curve represents existing conditions and the lower curve represents conditions estimated to exist following construction of the SCS P-1 Channel project. The curves can be used to obtain an estimate of the elevation that floodwaters will rise for any given volume of floodwater accumulation behind the pump station. 2 The Stage-Storage curves developed for the FEMA Flood Insurance Study differs significantly from the curves developed by the Soil Conservation Service and the difference in the two curves resulted in flood elevation predictions that • varied by as much as three and one-half feet for future conditions. The SCS curve construction for existing conditions was based on 1962 aerial survey maps with five-foot contour intervals. (1 ) The FEMA existing conditions curve was constructed with a more recent (1975) and more precise Corps of Engineers aerial survey map with two-foot contour intervals. Due to the discrepancy in available data, our staff made an independent calcu- lation of available flood storage using the most recent, 1980 Corps of Engineers aerial survey map with two-foot contour intervals. The results of our calculations tended to support the stage-storage relationship developed for the FEMA study. (2) Consequently, we are utilizing the existing con- ditions, Stage-Storage curve developed for the FEMA study but modified to reflect a reduction in storage volume due to recent filling for development. The stage-storage curve for the post-project situation reflects the excavation of a little more than 300 acre-feet of soil below the fifteen feet MSL eleva- tion for construction of the pump station forebay pond and phase one of the P-1 channel and assumes redistribution of the spoils within the project limitsbe- tween the elevation of fifteen feet MSL and twenty feet MSL. This assumption accounts for the fact that the pre-project and post-project stage-storage curves merge at the twenty-foot elevation stage. Aside from the aforementioned' spoils disposal assumption, if fill is imported into the project area the stage storage curve will move to the left. Likewise, if excavation spoils are trans- ported out of the project area the curve will shift to the right. The curve presented in Figure 2 is valid only if the imported fill and exported excavation spoils trade-off are equivalent for each elevation interval in the project area. 1Per the telephone conversation with Keith Busch, SCS, Spokane, WA. 2In developing our stage-storage relationship, all storage below four-foot MSL was assumed dead storage. In addition, it was assumed that non-contiguous topographic depressions did not provide effective storage below the level of the surrounding ground elevation and that no effective storage was provided by storage volume below elevation ten feet MSL, that was not contiguous with the Springbrook Creek channel . It was allowed that these non-contiguous low areas could be subject to seasonal ponding and therefore not be available for flood storage. 1 3 ' I For example, it would require approximately 150 acre-feet of fill to raise 50.5 acres of the proposed Black River Office Park above the 17.0 MSL ele- vation. It would require approximately 50 acre-feet of fill for each foot of fill above the 14-foot MSL elevation. If all of the fill is imported . from outside the floodplain area, the stage-storage curves of Figure 2 should be modified by reducing the storage capacity available at 15.0 feet MSL by 50 acre-feet and reducing the storage capacity available at 16.0 feet MSL by 100 acre-feet, and reducing the storage capacity available at 17.0 feet and above by 150 acre-feet. Flood Volume Accumulation The flood water elevation in the area behind the Black River Pump Station is a function of the volume of water that accumulates behind the pump station. The maximum accumulation can be estimated by applying the continuity equation . (storage = inflow-outflow) to the storm runoff flows, arriving at the pump station. Flood waters will accumulate behind the pump station whenever the rate of stormwater inflow exceeds the rate of pump station discharge and the accumulation will continue until the inflow rate receeds below the pump station discharge rate. At present, the maximum discharge of the Black River Pump Station is constrained by the rate of flow in the Green River. The Green River channel has a design maximum flood flow capacity of 12,000 cfs at the Auburn USGS streamflow gaging station. Flows or discharges entering the Green River when the flow is 12,000 cfs at the Auburn gage are in excess of the river systems design limit and en- croach upon the systems flood control safety factor. The Corps of Engineers, who control discharges to the Green River, have agreed to allow the Black River Pump Station to discharge up to 400 cfs when the flow of the Green River is 12,000 cfs at the Auburn gage. The agreement is purported to be a negotiated privilege rather than a contractual right. Assuming that the 400 cfs pumping allowance agreement is honored, the worst case condition for flood water accumulation behind the pump. station (e.g. , maximum flood water accumulation) is the situation where the design flood for the Eastside- Green River drainage area (e.g. , Springbrook Creek drainage area) occurs during 4 I 1 a period when the Green River is at maximum design flood stage. Under this i set of conditions the discharge of the Black River Pump Station is limited : to 400 cfs. The best case situation (e.g. , no flood water accumulation) is -- where the design flood occurs when the Green River is at a level that will allow the pump station to discharge at a rate equal to the rate of inflow to : the pump station forebay. An intermediate flood water storage design condition that has been presented by the Soil Conservation Service is the situation where the pump station can discharge at an unlimited pumping rate for a period of twenty-two hours, at 1 which time it must curtail pumping to the 400 cfs level . The twenty-two hour unlimited pumping period is based on the estimated time of travel for flood Iwaters released from Howard A. Hansen Dam to reach the point of discharge from --I the Black River Pump Station. The rationale is based upon the scenario where 1 the design storm hits the entire Green River drainage basin simultaneously, '_ ' and in response to the storm the release from Howard A. Hansen Dam is imme- diately increased from some nominal level to the maximum design release rate. Still another condition evaluated is the situation where the pump station can Idischarge at an unlimited rate for a period of twenty-two hours at which time it must curtail pumping to a 300 cfs level . This particular situation is in- - _1 cluded only as it represents the scenario used for the FEMA Flood Insurance Study. 1 Table 1 gives a summary of the estimated volume of runoff accumulation and corresponding flood stage elevation for each of the aforementioned situations, with and without the P-1 Channel project and for both present and projected ' future levels of development. The results on Table 1 indicate that the design ^ storm estimated flood stage elevation behind the Black River Pump Station for present-day conditions is, most probably, in the range of 13.1 feet MSL to 14.7 feet MSL, dependent upon the particular pump station operating scenario adopted, and that these flood stage elevations will increase to the range of l i15.0 feet MSL to 17.0 feet MSL without the P-l .project when the drainage basin _ has attained full development in accordance with existing land use plans.

With the P-1 project complete the range of estimated future flood stage I ,, ielevations will be diminished to a range between 13.9 feet MSL and 16.7 feet MSL. 1 I; The flood volume accumulation and the flood stage elevation are based on the flood hydrographs developed using the SCS TR-20 computer model as modi- �-- fied for use on small computers by Tudor Engineering and the data base developed for the 1980 FEMA flood study, but updated to reflect present (1982) and future (ultimate development in accordance with adopted Land Use Plans for the drainage area) conditions. ,-. 1 Local Storm Drainage The 71-acre site of the proposed Black River Office Park is, for the most Ipart, a fairly level , heavily wooded site of poor, ill-defined drainage, with numerous areas of large, shallow topographic depressions that trap local drainage and experience ponding following periods of heavy or prolonged pre- cipitation. As a result, the natural retention and detention storage of the _ existing site is relatively large. Most of the site is at an elevation be- 1 low fourteen feet MSL and the groundwater table at the site is high much of the year.. In fact, several of the site depressions have standing water 1 1 throughout all but the driest seasons. - IThe site is bordered to the north by a set of Burlington Northern Railroad tracks on a raised grade. Just beyond the tracks is a steep, heavily wooded 1_ 1 slope (e.g. , greater than 20% slope) that rises to and beyond the Empire Way Highway. (See enclosed map. ) This slope, due to its steepness, is likely to remain relatively undeveloped in the future. A field inspection of the site located three drainage culverts that pene- , - 1 trated the BNRR track embankment. Of these three culverts only the most west- erly culvert appeared to discharge to a defined drainage channel , that 1 eventually discharges to the Black River channel just upstream from the existing Pump Station forebay. Discharge from the remaining two culverts . appeared to apread overland across the site in an ill-defined pattern, and a large portion of this runoff, particularly from the center culvert, is likely intercepted and detained in topographic depressions and only reaches the Black River channel via the groundwater or after depression storage has been satisfied. The most easterly culvert penetrating the railroad embankment is a 24-inch diameter culvert that discharges storm drainage from the Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development located east of the subject site. Runoff from this culvert is ultimately to the old Black River channel . The largest portion of on-site precipitation is subject to the same fate as the discharge from the two most easterly culverts. It is possible, however, for worst case conditions, that the ground could be saturated and the de- ' pression storage satisfied. Under this situation the site could contribute a rate and volume of direct runoff to the Black River channel that far exceeds the textbook-calculated runoff for an undeveloped forested site. It is possible that a wet-season storm could generate runoff from the existing con- ditions that would be in the same ballpark as runoff from post-development • conditions. After development, stormwater runoff, either generated from or transported across Black River Office Park site, will be collected in an underground storm drainage system and discharged to the old Black River channel . Underground detention storage will be provided if required; however, it is proposed that the stormwater be discharged directly to the old channel to take advantage of any period of unrestricted pumping that may be available at the Black River Pump Station during periods of intense storms. (See discussion of Flood Volume Accumulation. ) The Black River Office Park site is in such close proximity to the Pump Station that stormwater detention appears to serve no beneficial pur- pose and most likely would increase maximum floodwater accumulation and, as a result, maximum flood stage elevation. 8 I i Table 2, below, provides a summation of the estimated 25-year stormwater runoff that discharges to the Black River channel from the proposed develop- ment site. The Rational Method of Runoff estimation was used to construct Table 2 . • TABLE 2 ;!

Shoreline Management Program The Washington State Shoreline Management Act applies to 200 feet from either side of the Black River measured from the ordinary high water mark and all associated wetlands which includes most of the site. The law I requires that a permit be obtained from the City of Renton for any substantial development within this zone. The master program adopted by the City of Renton designates any development of which the total cost. or fair market value exceeds $1,000 as a substantial development. The subject site has been designated as an "urban environment." The objective of this classification is as follows: "Objective The objective of an urban environment is to ensure optimum utilization of shorelines within urbanized areas by providing for intensive public use, especially access to and along the water's edge and by managing development so that it enhances and maintains shorelines for a multiplicity of viable and necessary uses." Comment: Generally, the proposed action meets the objective of the Shoreline Management Program. Access will be provided to the Black River. Application for substantial development permit will be filed with the City of Renton for development within the 200-foot overzone. 7. King County Sub-Regional Plan, Puget Sound Council of Governments The Regional Development Plan (adopted 1/25/79) sets out a detailed policy guide at the county level within a framework of regional development goals. The primary purpose of the sub-regional plan is to provide guidance to local governments in making growth management decisions related to phasing growth, defining activity centers, provision of transportation and utilities, and intergovernmental coordination. Comment: The proposed project is substantially consistent with the draft plan in that the project would support the policy of concentrating jobs, DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR If BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK REZONE PREPARED FOR THE CITY OF RENTON RENTON PLANNING DEPARTMENT RENTON, WASHINGTON r' • BY s- , R.W.

The EIS will I/ discuss the impacts of changing all or part of the existing undeveloped riparian forest to an intensive, urban office and warehouse use. No specific site development plans have been prepared; therefore, this EIS will address only the environmental impacts at the general "land use" level . At such time as site specific construction plans have been completed, a further EIS will be prepared, or if appropriate, a supplement to this EIS may be issued. 11 In order that this EIS may be effectively utilized in the zoning review process, this document will discuss both the proponent's rezone proposal of the site in its entirety and three primary zoning options. The alternatives $ are as follows: 1. Development of 75% of the site (53± acres) into warehouse and office park use while retaining 25% of the riparian forest in concentrated open space and natural habitat. 2. Retention of the east or west one-half of the site (35+ acres) in its natural state while allowing warehouse and office development on the • 'remainder. 3. No urban development or other action and retention of the site in its entirety in the current undeveloped state. ' i . • • X The alternatives section of this EIS, commencing an page 109, contains a qualitative analysis and comparison of the three land use alternatives enumerated above. Those impacts on elements of the natural and human environments, such as earth, water, flora and fauna, and aesthetics are xpanded in detail. Thus the alternatives section trill provide a concise11 reference for the City's decisionmakers in the rezone process. 1 11 r 11 11 X1• I:Tke, ,0,-, ..::, , -,,,,,,,,,3-:p.,. .. ti%,.','itZ•,'It;1"::: :- 11,:;...1.?,;:.:A*:=1:5,;.,t 1 ''''''''A:::':'!"7:i=i4; 1::':i.s] :&•.

The Proposed Action J The project sponsor proposes to rezone a 71.16 acre site from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP) designation in order to construct, in 2 phases, an office park and rail served warehousing. Future environmental consequences of specific on-site development will be addressed in more detail in future environmental documents. Off-site improvements may be required to serve this proposal , or this proposal in conjunction with other developments anticipated in the future in this area. These include improvements to the P-1 drainage channel (see other Governmental Services, p. 86 ) , and construction of the Valley Parkway. II. Impacts and Mitigating Measures A. PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT 1. Earth a. Geology and Soils Impacts Import of fill and reposition and cover of topsoils due to excavation and filling activities. Mitigating Measures Excavation and grading operations on the site will be performed in conformance with the City of Renton Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance b. Topography Impacts Topography will be modified in order to create buildings and road sites. 11 Mitigating Measures Topographic changes could be restricted to limited areas of the site. 2 c. Unique Physical Features Impacts 11 Development of the proposal will necessitate removal of 38.6 acres of the 59.5 acre riparian forest located on the site. Mitigating Measures - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank. 2. Air Impacts There will be a short-term increase in dust and fumes during construction. Over the long-term, automobile-related pollutants will increase as local traffic levels increase. Mitigating Measures - Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. ' - Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, 11 cleaning and sweeping of streets at the end of hauling activities should be performed by the contractor. 3. Water a. Surface Water Quantity/Quality if Impacts 111 Increased surface runoff from the site as well as increased levels of polluted surface runoff would result from the proposed action. Alteration of runoff characteristics will occur in that diversion of stormflow into ditches and storm pipes will prevent water from I /// flowing to low lying areas and may cause some drying up of wetlands that will be preserved on site, unless storm drainage measures are undertaken to protect them. is 3 Mitigating Measures - Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. - Stormwater runoff will be collected in a storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. - Oil/water separators should be utilized to remove petroleum products from storm water. - Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. - Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River Channel . b. Floods Impacts Fill material will be utilized to bring building sites above the 100 year flood elevations. Mitigating Measures - Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 year flood plain which will prevent on-site flooding. - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amounts of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. r ' c. Groundwater Quantity/Movement Impacts Project development would result in an increase of impervious surface on the site, which would decrease the amount of infiltration of precipitation. Mitigating Measures A reduction in building site coverage could require less filling. 4 4. Flora • r� Impacts Approximately 84% of the site consists of a unique wetland deciduous forest, a part of the largest forest of this type in the Seattle area. As a result of the proposed action about 78% of this riparian forest would be removed and be replaced by building li foundations, roads and parking areas. 4, Mitigating Measures - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - Placement of building sites, parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. - Vegetation along the Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. 5. Fauna Impacts Removal of most wildlife habitat and reduction in most native wildlife due to intrusion of human activity. 1 Mitigating Measures - Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. J_t - As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. - Surface water quality along Black River should be preserved by planting natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible. 11 5 6. Noise Impacts (Short-Term) Noise levels will increase considerably during construction activities with frequent noise peaks depending on the type of equipment used. Traffic noise will increase on adjacent streets. Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00a.m. and 7:00p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of . Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle - ! congestion. Impacts (Long-Term)p Increase in traffic and train movements will result in a proportionate increase in noise levels. Increases in noise levels $ due to human activity at the site will occur. Mitigating Measures - Landscaping, careful site design and berming should be utilized near main roads to deflect noise and reduce its impact. - See "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures,11 1/ - p• 81 • Installation of rubberized railroad crossings where the access ` road would intersect the railroad spurs to the south of the site would decrease noise generation. 6 7. Light and Glare Impacts Addition of low level lighting on the site. The traffic generated by the site will increase the incidence of headlight glare. Some glare will be produced by reflections from windows and possibly the buildings themselves. Mitigating Measures - Building wash lighting should not be used. - Perimeter landscaping, fencing and berming, especially around parking areas and road entrances could reduce light spillage. - Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. 8. Land Use Impacts Change in the land use from old growth riparian forest and open space to office park with warehousing. Mitigating Measures An alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space. 9. Natural Resources Impacts Removal of most of the existing vegetation and open space on the site. Consumption of some natural resources for construction and maintenace of the project. Mitigating Measures 11 9 9 Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. 11 10. Risk of Explosion or Hazardous Emission Impacts There will be a slight risk of hazardous emission or explosion during construction and potentially from future tenants. Ai 7 Mitigating Measures None. B. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT 1. Population and Housing • Impacts A slight increase in local housing demand may result due to employees desiring to relocate near .their work. Also, day time population levels at the site will increase to about approximately 4,100 permanent employees. 2. Employment Impacts Increased short-term employment during construction and long-term employment once the development is complete. Mitigating Measures None. 3. Transportation/Circulation Impacts The proposed Black River Office Park is anticipated to generate be- tween 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day and between 1,250 and 3,970 11 vehicles during the evening peak hour. This additional volume will exacerbate the existing congestion at most of the intersections along major arterials. • Mitigating Measures • a) To reduce potential safety hazard, Monster Road should be upgraded to accommodate heavy trucks and increased traffic volumes. This may involve rechannelization and possible signali7ation of the Sunset Boulevard/Monster Road inter- section. 8 b) To discourage the use of single occupant vehicles, the City may consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by the zoning code. c) The road proposed to be constructed along the west edge of �! Earlington Park, to the south of the site, could be extended in such away to provide westerly access from the Black River Office Park, in order to reduce traffic volumes that flow through Earlington Park. d) Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. e) If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. f) Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and car- pool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park manage- ment should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. g) As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period. h) Any roadwork on-site could be conditioned to allow open at all times a portion of the road wide enough to permit emergency vehicle access. i) Grade an alignment from Thomas Avenue S.W. which would intersect the road system on-site with a gravel sub base wide enough to I allow emergency vehicle access. j) Disruption of traffic flan in the internal road system could be minimized by installing utilities, within the right-of-way, but outside the roadway proper. 8a 4. Public Services a. Fire Service -�, Impacts Over the short-term, construction activity may increase the hazards of fire fighting. Construction of the proposal would significantly impact the fire protection responsibilities of the Renton Fire Department. This development, coupled with future development in the area, would necessitate improvements to provide timely first response capabilities. 1._ Mitigating Measures - Sprinkler systems installed in buildings per City Code and Fire Marshall 's requirements, will reduce the amount of fire flow required. - Non-combustible building materials would reduce risks of fire. ) - Industrial tenants could be limited to uses that do not utilize flammable materials. b. Police Service Impacts 11 Demand for police protection will increase. Mitigating Measures - Tax revenues generated from the development will help offset r' the cost of additional service. fj 9 - Internal security systems could be installed in the building. - Exterior lighting should be placed at strategic locations to provide, additional security measures. c. Hospital Facilities Impacts The proposed project is not expected to significantly affect usage of the Valley General Hospital . Mitigating Measures On-site first aid facilities within major buildings should be provided. d. Parks and Recreation Impacts Development of the site will preclude any future development or designation for park use. Mitigating Measures None. e. Maintenance Impacts Increased demand for City maintenance of streets, water, sanitary sewer and stormwater drainage systems. Mitigating Measures None. 5. Energy Impacts .Increase in demand for electrical power and natural gas and possible increase in demand for energy associated with transportation. I ' 10 Mitigating Measures r.� - Insulation in roof, walls, flooring and glass should be utilized. - Energy analysis of building design should be performed. I j 6. Communication Impacts Increase in demand for telephone service. Mitigating Measures - All telephone lines will be installed underground. - Installation of telephone lines will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. 7. Public Utilities Impacts Existing water supply and system would experience some additional demand. Deterioration of water quality entering the combined sewer and storm drainage system is possible during construction activities. In the long-term, the quantity of water entering the system will increase due to increased impervious surfaces on the site. Also, project development would generate increased solid waste and sewage flows from the site. Mitigating Measures Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to its discharge into Springbrook Creek. 8. Human Health Impacts Increased noise levels due to construction, traffic and other human activities may affect the health of nearby residents. 11 Mitigating Measures - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. • 9. Aesthetics Impacts • Visual appearance of the site will be altered. Mitigating Measures Site design and retention of some existing vegetation will soften the impacts of the bulk and mass of buildings. 10. Archaeological/Historical Impacts Project development may cover potentially archaeologically significant portions of the site, specifically Duwamish Indian sites. (Refer to the letter from the Office of Public Archaeology in Appendix D.) Mitigating Measures The Office of Public Archaeology of the University of Washington will conduct borings at 25 meter intervals in the areas considered to have high archaeological potential and at 50 meter intervals at other undisturbed areas to confirm specific locations prior to development of the site. , I 12 11. Economic Factors Impacts The project would create short-term construction employment. , The development would also partially ease the demand for industrial building space. The City of Renton will receive an J increase in tax revenues and municipal costs generated from the project. Mitigating Measures ' _} None. III. Alternatives - Please refer to the comparative analysis in Table 10 on page 111a. Alternative 1 - Development of 75% of the site with 25% in concentrated open space. This alternative is slightly greater in density than the proposed action, but the site plan would be so designed to allow 25% of the site to remain I' in concentrated open space. This open space would most likely manifest as' a greenbelt of varying width along the old Black River Channel and Springbrook Creek located at the site's southern perimeter. Impacts This alternative would retain approximately 25% of the site in its �` natural state as a riparian forest. The impacts of this' development alternative would be slightly greater than the proposed action; however, the difference in impacts is not readily quantifiable. It is expected that this alternative would generate slightly greater impacts in the following elements: soils, topography, erosion, air quality, runoff, flora, fauna, noise, light and glare, natural resources, employment, transportation/circulation, public services, aesthetics, and economic factors. When definite site plans become available for review, specific differences in impacts can be assessed. 13 Feasibility According to the developer, this alternative is economically desirable and feasible. However, the increased impacts caused by an increase in density would reduce feasibility with respect to service from city and public utilities, as well as diminish the acceptability of project development in regard to the physical environment (soil , topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources.) Alternative 2 - Development of 46% (33 acres) of the site with 38 acres remaining in open space. Description This alternative differs from the proposal in that building would occur on only Phase 1 of the property with the remaining 38 acres (the western one-half of the site) preserved in open space reserve to mitigate the development impacts. Impacts Overall , this alternative would place decreased demand on thehphysical environment. Specifically, no development would take place in the western portion of the site. This area would be preserved. as open space which would eliminate the impacts on soils, topography, runoff patterns, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural resources for that area. Impacts to the physical environment in the developed areas would be comparable to those of the proposed project. Impacts to the human environment (public services, utilities, energy and archaeological resources) would be similar to the proposed project. However, impacts on such elements as transportation/circulation, air quality, noise and employment would be diminished. • Feasibility This alternative would reduce the amount of leasable building space by an undetermined amount. There is a high demand for rail-served warehousing • which may not be tapped if the project were to exclude this use. �ff � l 14 Alternative 3 - No Development Description This alternative would leave the site in its undeveloped state on a permanent basis or on a temporary basis until some other proposal for development is approved by the City. However, pressure to develop would continue due to Manufacturing Park designation on the Comprehensive Plan, development of the surrounding properties and increasing demand for industrial land development. Impacts All adverse environmental impacts of the project would be eliminated with this alternative. The positive economic benefits of the project, such as increased property taxes, creation of short- and long-term employment and partial alleviation in demand for industrial land would also not occur. The most significant impact of this alternative would be preservation of the riparian forest which would extend the opportunity to the City to ti purchase the site and preserve it as a green belt. No development would shift the impacts of development to other sites which may be more or less suited for these uses. Feasibility The "no develoment" alternative would not meet the objectives of the proponents. The feasibility of the City in acquiring the site for the purpose of presesrvation is unlikely due to the market value of property and the City's Comprehensive Plan designation of the site for manu- facturing park use. However, the City may require preservation of substantial portions of the site due to the potentially adverse environmental consequence of development. IV. Unavoidable Adverse Environmental Impacts I. The Physical Environment A. Earth 1. Changes in the contours of the site, including excavation depths of a maximum of 10 feet for utilities. 2. Addition of fill over native soils. 15 B. Air 1. Increased air pollution' from automobile emissions. 2. Increased particulate levels due to construction activity and additional traffic volumes. 3. Short-term odors during construction activities. C. Water 1. Increased surface runoff from the site which may contain an increased level of urban pollutants. 2. Potential alteration of ground water movement, quantity and quality on the.. site.. D. Flora About two thirds of the natural riparian vegetation on the site would be removed. E. Fauna ) ` 1. A reduction in the ability of the site to serve as habitat for wildlife. 2. Reduction in number and diversity of wildlife. F. Noise 1. Increased noise levels over the short-term due to construction ' activity. 2. Increased noise levels over the long-term due to human activity and increased traffic and rail volumes. G. Light and Glare Light and glare will be emitted from the site to surrounding properties. 16 H. Land Use 1. Loss of open space. 2. Preclusion of alternative land uses for the site during the life of the project. I. Natural Resources 1. Consumption of building materials and energy. 2. Conversion of open space to warehousing and commercial uses. II. The Human Environment A. Population and Housing Very slight increase in population to the City. B. Employment None. C. Transportation/Circulation Traffic impacts will be increased as a result of project development. D. Public Services and Utilities Increased demand for all public utilities and public services. Cumulatively, with other developments in the valley, utilities and services will eventually need to be increased. E. Aesthetics Visual appearance of the site will be altered. F. Archaeological/Historical The potential removal of an archaeological site. G. Economics Unknown. 17 SECTION TWO DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL • I. Name of Proposal i Black River Office Park II. Project Sponsor Alterra Corporation 2120-A S.W. 152nd St. P.O. Box 66101 Seattle, WA 98166 The proponents have requested a rezone of 71.16 acres from General Classification (G) to Manufacturing Park (MP). The development, to be completed in two phases, will contain rail-served warehouse and an office park. III. Project Location The proposed project is to be located on a 71.16 acre site, approxi- mately one mile west of the Renton central business district. The site is bounded on the north by the Burlington Northern Railroad Right-of- Way, on the east by the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development, on the south by the proposed Earlington Industrial park, and on the west by Monster Road and the P-1 pumping station. IV. Other Agencies Maintaining Files on the Proposal None. V. Site Description Roughly 11.5 acres of the 71.16 acre site have been cleared and about 59..5 acres consist of riparian forest. Approximately 5 acres of the cleared portion of the site is presesntly used for dumping purposes for a land fill . Access to the fill area is via a dirt road adjacent to the railroad intersecting Monster Road. The remainder of the site is heavily vegetated by a riparian forest. The site is generally level except for those areas near the railroad tracks which have been filled. 18 VI. Description of the Surrounding Area The immediate vicinity of the project site is characterized by a combination of rapidly developing industrial lands and undeveloped open space with several residences to the east. The site is north of and contiguous with the Earlington Golf Course; this acreage has been proposed for development as Earlington Industrial Park. North of the site is the Burlington Northern (B.N.)railroad tracks. Across the tracks from the site is a heavily wooded slope covering the south side of Earlington Hill. To the west is the King County Black River Watershed pump station and Monster Road. To the east and northeast is the proposed Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development. VII. Major Physical and Engineering Aspects of the Proposal Definite site plans have not been determined. However, tentative land use percentages are as follows: Site Coverage Use Acreage Percentage Warehouse 12.09 17% Office 35.58 50% Roads 2.85 4% Total Developed 50.52 71% Open Space 20.64 29% (Approximately 35% of the riparian forest would remain upon development.) Also, the proponent intends to impose development restrictions, including the following: 1. The minimum tract size for any development shall be 2 acres. 2. Maximum land coverage by building shall be 40 percent. 3. Maximum site coverage by impervious surfaces shall be 70 percent. 4. Each developed site shall retain a minimum of 20 percent of the natural vegetation in a contiguous pattern. 5. An architectural control committee shall approve all structures in order to ensure that the design is complementary to the existing environment in the area. 19 6. All development shall maintain a minimum 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River Channel . VIII. Relationship of the Proposal to Existing Laws, Policies, and Plans The public plans, policies, and laws relevant to the proposed Black River Industrial Park development include the following: 1. Policy Element of the Comprehensive Plan - 1981 2. 1976 Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan 3. 1965 Renton Urban Area Comprehensive Plan I 4. Land Use Report - Renton Comprehensive Plan 5. City of Renton Zoning Code 6. Shoreline Management Master Program 7. 1978 King County Sub-Regional Plan, Puget Sound Council of Governments 8. State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 9. 1965 Renton Arterial Plan 10. City of Renton Utilities Plan 1. Policy Element 1981 The Renton Planning Department has drafted an update of the "Policy Statement" of the Comprehensive Plan which was adopted in January 1966. This "Policy Element" is comprised of goals, objectives and policies which are designed to: 1) serve as a basis for revising the other elements of the Comprehensive Plan (Land Use, Circulation, and Community Facilities); 2) interpret and clarify the other elements; and 3) address those areas that are not included in the other elements. This document was adopted in February 1981 by the Renton City Council . A detailed discussion of the relationship of the proposal to it has been included as follows: j-. 1 1.A. BALANCED DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVE: In order to maintain an acceptable quality of life, land use decisions should be based upon a balance of public services, economic feasibility and environmental considerations. 20 POLICIES: 1. Adequate transportation capacity and utilities necessary to service new development should be available or provided in conjunction with actual development. 2. Urban development should be permitted when it is compatible with the natural and human environment. 3. Urban development should compensate for the services that it requires. Comment: Although basic public utility facilities are available to serve the projected development, the proposal would require the construction of road access from the site to Monster Road, which would be completed in conjunction with project development. Implementation of the proposed action would result in the elimination of 78% of the natural riparian forest currently existing on the site, significantly affecting the natural environment. In this respect, the proposal is inconsistent with this policy. As a general rule, new industrial and commercial facilities typically generate sufficient local tax revenues to offset the additional services required. However, for this specific development, that has yet to be substantiated. 1.B. POLLUTION OBJECTIVE: Pollution should be minimized. Comment: Project development would result in increased traffic volumes which would have a commensurate increased impact on air quality characteristics in the immediate vicinity of the site. 1.C. OPEN SPACE OBJECTIVE: Open space should be obtained and retained in selected areas. 21 POLICIES: 1. Existing open space that serves a public purpose should be retained and made available for a variety of open space uses. 2. Natural vegetation, ravines, slopes, and waterbodies should be preserved to retain open space. 3. Open space should be located throughout the City and incorporated as an integral part of all development. 4. Open space elements should be combined to form a visual and physical separation between major sectors of the City. 5. Areas of strips of open space should be retained and enhanced to serve as buffers. 6. Open space areas should not be considered as a reserve for non-open space uses. If an overriding public purpose requires the use of open space land, a comparable replacement site should be provided. 7. Multiple uses of open space land should be encouraged, provided that the uses are compatible and' adequate area is provided for each function. 8. Open space which is used to preserve views should be retained. Comment: The site is heavily vegetated, contains wetlands, and affords visual relief from the intensive urban developments existing and proposed for the area. This open space would be significantly reduced as a result of project implementation and thus, the project would not be consistent with the intent of this policy to retain open space. 1.D. WILDLIFE HABITAT OBJECTIVEE: Wildlife habitats should be designated, preserved and enhanced. Comment: The deciduous wetland forest on the site offers a rich and varied wildlife habitat for numerous mammals and birdlife. Project implementation would significantly reduce the wildlife habitat on the site and thus, is not consistent with this objective. 22 1.E. VEGETATION OBJECTIVE: To preserve scenic beauty, prevent erosion, protect against floods and landslides, minimize air pollution, and reduce storm LI drainage system costs. -' ' POLICIES: 1. Desirable natural vegetation should be retained wherever possible. 2. In unique and/or fragile areas, desirable natural vegetation should be I ` retained or enhanced. 3. Healthy trees should be retained where possible. Comment: Implementataion of the project would result in the removal of 78% of the 59.5 acre riparian forest which is considered unique for this area. In addition, the proposal would displace approximately one-half of the flood storage area presently found on the site. The subject propsal is, therefore, not consistent with the intent of this objective. 1.F. RESOURCES OBJECTIVE: Natural resources and areas having scientific or educational value should be identified and preserved. Comment: It is likely that archaeological and cultural resources may be present on the site given its proximity to the old Black River Channel and other nearby historic discoveries. Prior to grading operations on the site, a coring program will be conducted to discern the location of such resources and those areas may be preserved from development until completion of excavation. 1.G. SURFACE DRAINAGE OBJECTIVE: To remove harmful materials and sediments, replenish ground water resources, and minimize erosion and floods. Surface drainage should be controlled. POLICIES: 1. Stormwaters should be retained on-site and then released at a natural rate and quality. The City's storm drainage system should be designed to incorporate natural drainage features. 2. Precipitation should be returned to the soil at natural rates near where it falls. 23 3. Development should be designed to facilitate percolation and to minimize impermeable surfaces. 4. Development should include appropriate design and/or equipment to ensure clean runoff. Comment: Consistent with City policy for drainage control in the vicinity of the proposed P-1 Channel and detention pond, no on-site stormwater detention is planned. Rather, runoff will be directed immediately to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. 1.H. WATERBODIES OBJECTIVE: To minimize flood damage, minimize the need for storm drainage facilities, promote recreational opportunities, protect wildlife habitats, and enhance adjacent uses natural waterbodies should be presesrved. POLICIES: 1. Public access to publicly-owned areas along waterbodies should be provided. 2. Development should be designed to allow the most compatible and aesthetic use to be placed near the waterbodies. 3. Development should be designed and constructed to incorporate features of waterbodies. 4. Development should be oriented towards waterbodies. 5. Selected marshes, bogs and swamps should be preserved and enhanced. Comment: A major portion of the riparian forest is a wetland for most of the year and serves as a flood storage area. Because project development would result in the elimination of this wetland, it is not considered consistent with this objective. 1.I. FLOOD PLAINS OBJECTIVE: To protect life and property and provide open space flood plains should be preserved and enhanced. 24 Comment: Implementation of the subject proposal would cause the present flood storage area of the site to be reduced by one-half and thus, does not promote the realization of this objective. 1.J. MARSHES, BOGS, AND SWAMPS OBJECTIVE: Selected marshes, bogs, and swamps should be preserved and enhanced for water retention, wildlife habitat, and open space. Comment: The site presently is a wetland during the year, except during the summer months and serves a viable wildlife habitat for numerous mammals and birdlife. The wetland area would be significantly reduced upon project development, and thus, the subject proposal is not consistent with this objective. 2. ECONOMIC GOAL: To promote a sound, diversified economic base. 2.A. FISCAL BALANCE OBJECTIVES: Activities that provide a favorable fiscal balance between municipal costs and revenue should be encouraged. POLICIES: 1. Activities must minimize pollution, thereby protecting the public interest, welfare, health and safety, and the City's image. 2. Activities should not overextend public facilities or services. 3. Activities with a favorable ratio of cost of public services to potential revenues should be encouraged. Comment: Please refer to the comment on 1.A. Balanced Development Objective on p. 19 . 2.B. EMPLOYMENT OBJECTIVE: Activities that provide for a stable work force should be encouraged. POLICIES: 1. Diversification of industry should be encouraged. 25 2. A wide range of employment opportunities should be provided. 3. Balanced industrial and commercial growth should be encouraged. Comment: The proposed action involves construction of a mix of uses including rail-served warehousing and an office park. Approximately 4,000 employment opportunities would be generated in the long-term upon occupancy which would contribute to the stability of the work force. 3. URBAN DESIGN GOAL: To promote aesthetic and functional harmony and to provide a proper balance of residential , commercial and industrial areas. 3.A. LAND DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVE: Growth and development should occur in a timely and logical progression of the existing urban area to maximize the use of existing services. POLICIES: 1. To minimize the necessity for redevelopment, premature development should only be allowed where it can be shown to be compatible with future uses in the vicinity. 2.. Development beyond the urban fringe should only be allowed where it is a consistent extension of urban services. 3. Vacant land surrounded by developed land should be given priority for development. 4. Land where adequate public utilities are available should be given priority for development. 5.. A balance of residential , commercial , and industrial areas should be achieved. Comment: The proposed action would occur in an urban area served by adequate public utilities and characterized by existing and proposed development. In these respects, it would be consistent with the above objective. 3.B. DISTRICTS OBJECTIVE: Districts should be identified and the integrity preserved. 26 POLICIES: 0 1. Districts should have efficient and functional relationship between various land uses. 2. NA 3. Boundaries of districts should be buffered by uses compatible with each district. 4. Transitional areas should be converted from one use to another as soon as possible, with new uses designed to be compatible with existing uses of the district. 5. Districts should project a favorable image. 6. Each district should be encouraged to have its own identity. 7. A landscape theme for each district should be encouraged. 8.. Development should be harmonious both in intensity and architectural design within a district. Comment: The proposed action would be an extension of the manufacturing park concept that is typified by the existing Earlington Industrial Park and the proposed Earlington park to replace the existing golf course located to the south of the project site. The low-rise architectural nature characterizing these uses would be continued on the site. 3.C. LANDSCAPE OBJECTIVE: Landscaping should be used for buffering, screening less attractive activities, and minimizing detrimental impact between uses. POLICIES: 1. Landscaping which enhances the primary design should be placed around all structures, in the interior of parking lots, and along the periphery of the site. (_ 2. Refuse and/or other unsightly areas should be screened and landscaped. r 3. Landscaping which is suitable for screening and buffering should be provided between use areas. 4. Transportation corridors and facilities should be landscaped. 27 5. To provide continuity adjacent owners should be encouraged to landscape and maintain planting strips and portions of unimproved public rights-of-way. 6. Areas with a common theme or design should be encouraged to adopt a landscape theme. 7. All developed property should be appropriately landscaped. Comment: Retention of portions of the existing vegetation on the site, as well as preparation and implementation of a landscape plan will provide buffers from the Earlington Woods PUD to the east of the project site, which may be '_. considered incompatible with the proposed office and warehouse uses. Effort will be made to be consistent with the landscaping design to be implemented on the proposed Earlington Park development to the south of the site. ' 6. INDUSTRIAL GOAL: TO PROMOTE THE DEVELOPMENT, MAINTENANCE OR REHABILITATION OF INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES. 6.A. AREAS OBJECTIVE: Viable industrial areas should be created and/or maintained and declining facilities revitalized. POLICIES: ' 1. Industrial areas should be compatible with adjacent land uses. 2. Buffers should be placed between industrial districts and other land uses. 3. Industrial areas should be located and designed so that access is convenient to major transportation corridors. 4. To minimize travel and congestion and to promote safety, industrial areas should be located and designed accordingly. 5. Except for supportive and convenience uses, non-industrial uses should be prohibited. 6. Compatible design and landscape themes should be encouraged. 28 Comment: The proposed action would be an extension of the warehousing and office uses proposed for the Earlington Park, south of the site and the Earlington Industrial Park to the southeast. A buffer of existing vegetation would separate the proposed action from the proposed residential uses to the east of the site and an effort will be made to choose plant materials for the landscaping plan with similar species to be utilized in the Earlington Park development. Also, the low-rise nature of Earlington Industrial Park and the Earlington Park will be continued in the structures to be built in the Black River Office Park. The subject site is located with nearby access to I-405 and local arterials, once the access to Monster Road is completed. 6.B. STRUCTURES AND SITES OBJECTIVE: Industrial structures and sites should be well-designed, constructed, and maintained. POLICIES: 1. Structures which minimize energy consumption should be encouraged. 2. Adequate setbacks and enhancement of the views from adjacent residential property should be considered. 3. The preservation and enhancement of the views from adjacent residential property should be considered. Comment: At this stage of the development plans, specific building designs have not been formulated, however, energy efficiency will be considered during the decision-making process. Retention of existing vegetation and the installation of landscaping materials will preserve the wooded nature of views from the proposed residential uses to be constructed to the east of the site. However, the impacted views from the residences in Empire Estates located upslope to the north of the project, would not be measurably mitigated by the installation of landscaping. 29 - 8.B. WATER OBJECTIVE: An adequate water supply and distribution system should be assured. 8.C. STORM DRAINAGE OBJECTIVE : An adequate storm drainage system which minimizes the impacts on the natural drainage features should be assured. 8.D. SANITARY SEWERS OBJECTIVE: An adequate sanitary sewer system should be provided. 8.E. REFUSE OBJECTIVE: An adequate refuse collection and disposal system should be assured. 8.F. ENERGY OBJECTIVE : An adequate energy supply and distribution system should be assured. 8.G. COMMUNICATIONS OBJECTIVE: Adequate communications systems should be assured. Comment: The extent of the proposal 's impact on the public utilities listed above is discussed in detail under each appropriate section in this document. Where applicable and feasible, suggested mitigations are included. 9.E. HERITAGE OBJECTIVE: The City's cultural and historical heritage should be preserved. POLICIES: Archaeological and historical sites and buildings should be recognized and preserved where practicable. Comment: It is likely that archaeological and cultural resources may be present on the site given its proximity to the old Black River Channel and other nearby historic discoveries. Prior to grading operations on the site, a coring program will be conducted to discern the location of such resources and those areas may be preserved from development until completion of excavation. 30 2. 1976 Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan The Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1976. Goals of I ) the Plan are as follows: r_I a. "Promote high quality development that will enhance the image of the City of Renton." Comment: rm The proposed action is intended to be in conformance with this goal through enforcement of the development restrictions listed on p. 18 of this document. In addition, this goal will be met through the mechanisms of platting, environmental analysis and review, and review for permit approval , as well as through the conditioning of the project during approvals. b. "Preserve and/or enhance wildlife habitat." Comment: This goal will be impacted by the development of the proposed Black River Office Park in that there will be loss_ of about 78% of the natural vegetation and open areas that serve wildlife on the site. c. "Enhance the tax base of the City of Renton so all the citizens of Renton are able to benefit." Comment: This goal will be supported by the proposal . The existing open space use has a very limited economic return but virtually no cost to taxing jurisdictions. The secondary impacts of employment taxes and a broadening of the employment base in Renton will occur, along with significant increases in the cost of municipal services. d. "Minimize noise, air and water pollutants, transportation difficulties, glare, heat, vibration, and other detrimental effects." i 31 Comment: The extent to which the development could impact the environmental impacts listed above is discussed in detail under each appropriate section in this document. e. "Promote aesthetics, including views, from adjacent hillsides." Comment: Views would be modified from natural open space to warehouse and office development. However, minor areas of natural vegetation would be retained and landscaping will be introduced. f. "Provide a high quality working environment for employees." Comment: The office park area with open space, visual access to the riparian forest and the landscaped areas will provide a positive working environment.. g. "Provide a viable economic climate for industrial firms." Comment: The subject property is one of the last remaining large parcels of rail served industrial land which is located in the number one drayage zone in the Greater Seattle area and also has, in effect, reciprocal switching with both the Union Pacific and Burlington-Northern railroads. These factors, coupled with the parcel 's close proximity to two airports and a highly developed transportation network assures that the proposed action would provide an economically viable climate for those industrial firms that locate there. h. "Promote a diversified economic base." 32 Comment: The conceptual site plans indicate a mix of land uses to occupy the park. They will include heavy warehouse and office uses fashioned as office park. i i . "Development should be designed to minimize detrimental impacts." Comment: As indicated above, the proponent is planning to institute several development restrictions, such as retention of at least 20% of the natural vegetation on each building lot and a minimum of 50 foot setback from the bank of the Black River Channel . Implementation of these measures will minimize the detrimental impacts of development. 1. The Land Use Objectives of the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan are as follows: a. "Light industrial office and warehouse uses and those heavy industrial uses that can be made compatible with the goals of the Valley are the types of developmental land uses intended for the Valley. b. Incompatible uses in industrial should be discouraged. c. Certain areas should be retained in their natural state to meet U.S. Soil Conservation Service requirements and community needs for mitigation of wildlife habitat and open space. d. Land uses should be grouped to promote a harmonious mix. e. Those greenbelt areas that are suitable for development should remain as wildlife habitat until they are ready for development." Comment: The proposal is substantially consistent with objectives a, b, d, and e listed above. Retention of certain areas in their natural state (Objective c) is possible under various alternatives proposed and mitigating measures drafted for the proposal . 33 2. "Circulation Objectives a. Access should be limited to controlled ingress and egress points to avoid conflicts and congestion. b. Circulation should be designed to minimize the area devoted to rights- of-way. c. At-grade railroad service should cross as few streets and trails as possible to minimize safety problems and inconvenience to other modes of transportation. d. Streets should be adequately designed to safely accommodate the types of vehicles that will be used. i e. All parking, servicing and loading and unloading of vehicles should be only on-site. f. The possibility of providing mass transit should be considered." Comment: The proposal is substantially consistent with objectives a, b, d, and e listed above; however, because site plans are not definite, the precise overall traffic consequences are not known. Objective c does not apply as no access roads nor circulation roads internal to the site will intersect the railroad spur on the site. 3. "Landscaping and Open Space a. A. landscape theme and recommended plant list should be established to provide habitat for wildlife and to promote aesthetics. Large b L ge areas should be permanently reserved and managed for wildlife habitat. c. A landscaped buffer should be established at the periphery of bounding streets to create a favorable image; between areas of incompatible land use to minimize differences; and along water channels and 34 wildlife habitats to minimize impact on wildlife and promote recreation. !� d. Whenever feasible unique natural features should be incorporated into developmental plans to preserve the character of the Valley." __I Comment: The preliminary site plan indicates that landscape buffers will be maintained to separate the proposed development from both the proposed industrial park directly to the south and the Earlington Woods PUD to the east. These objectives will further be met by instituting items 4 and 6 of the development restrictions listed on p. 18 of this document. 4. "Design and Development a. Design standards should be established to insure high quality development. b. Development should occur in a logical , systematic manner to prevent the premature expansion of utilities and minimize the possibilities of vacant parcels occurring." Comment: As discussed on p. 18 of this document, the proponent has established a set of development restrictions to govern the subsequent development of the site. The following stipulation will contribute to the compliance with these objectives. "An architectural control committee established by the developer shall approve all structures in order to ensure that the design is complementary to the existing environment in the area." 5. "Site Objectives: a. Circulation - 1. Internal circulation should accommodate all modes of transportation but these should be kept separated as much as possible. 35 2. Ingress and egress points should be well defined to expedite the safe movement of vehicles and people. Parking - 3. Adequate screened and landscaped parking should be provided for employees and visitors. • 4. Large interior landscaping islands or a series of smaller parking lots should be used to break up the large areas of paving. 5. Where feasible pervious paving materials should be employed to minimize surface water runoff. b. Landscaping and. Open Space - 1._ A maximum amount of appropriate landscaping should be permanently ' , ' established to provide wildlife habitat. 2. Large amounts of landscaping scattered throughout the site including along property lines are encouraged to provide a pleasant environment, minimize the impact of the development and enhance the visual experience from the adjacent properties, including hillsides. 3. Areas set aside for future expansion should remain in the original state or rehabilitated to support wildlife until the expansion is needed. L 4.. Whenever feasible unique natural features should be incorporated into developmental plans to preserve the character of the Valley. c. Design and Development 1.. The site layout and architectural treatment should be compatible with the characteristics of the site and the design standards of the Valley. 36 2. Less aesthetic uses, such as loading areas and outdoor storage areas, should be adequately screened and laidscaped and placed so they are not visible from adjacent public rights-of-way. 3. Roofs and other features of the site that are visible from ! adjacent hillsides should be designed to minimize visual impact. 4. All utilities should be placed underground. 5. Firms with large numbers of employees should develop outdoor recreation facilities. 6. The latest technology should be employed to minimize adverse I. characteristics." Comment: Circulation and Parking: Both circulation and parking objectives are being considered and complied !^'i with in site planning. Regarding the final objective, no pervious paving materials have been considered to date due to the early stage of site development. 1 Landscaping and Open Space: The precise type of development, as well as the final landscaping plan, are undetermined at this time. However, the proposed development may be 1i consistent with the above objectives if items 4 and 6 of the development restrictions listed on page 18 of this document are implemented. Design and Development: i Objectives 1 and 2 have been considered and employed in the design of the site plan. Roofing design will be addressed by the architectural control committee at the time of development. All utilities will be installed underground. It is possible that the site plan could contain provision for a connection to the jogging/bike trail that will be incorporated into the Earlington Industrial Park to the south. Lastly, it is premature at this time to speculate on the type of technology to be used at the time 37 of construction; these decisions will be made by individual builders at the time the parcels are subdivided. 3. Renton Urban Area Comprehensive Plan - Renton Planning Commission The City of Renton adopted a Comprehensive Plan in 1965 which was revised by the 1976 Green River Valley Plan. The map of Proposed Land Use included with the policies showed the majority of the subject property suited for industrial park uses. A small portion of the west corner of the site is classified as Green Belt (GB). (See Figure 4 on the following page) . Comment: A portion of the area designated as "green belt" would be removed in order to provide access to the site from Monster Road. However, other natural areas on the site would be preserved. The following Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the Renton Comprehensive Plan are those pertaining to this area. "Industrial Development The purpose of indicating industrial areas is not to dictate how industry should develop, but rather to recommend the best location for industrial use based on available information and advanced planning principles. Industry cannot be adapted to just any site or locale. Unless well planned for, certain detrimental influences such as excessively heavy traffic, high sound levels, smoke, glare, ground vibration, etc. may produce blight in the surrounding areas. Certain basic factors and site conditions are desirable for industrial development. They are: 1. Level land with good drainage. 2. Larger parcels and tracts not broken up by small ownerships or uses.• 3. Direct access to transportation (railroads, highways, airports, and waterways) . 4. Availabilityof electrical power, water and natural gas systems, and sewage facilities. 38 1 - v--km-----�--- `".,,,..•. zz....=�,,,,,..•. 4..,:;i..,,, r::R:,,,.:• -,K, c'' 'r:t' „„ }i;,r',: s..,Lk_.._.._..._.,...i....=......s.<......_., `--�a•a :-;e:.: .'^-'^^:;:.,.:•.1,.` i!, '�'"k,>r,''%r,:;'3::� -:•r'13�Vim,, c-i:`.,_.. ,�;':�•':�`.i .� :�:.,;. •—'V�.�-�•, r;-;.c�,'ti c.,,;»a • }% '- :: `:l:_ �':•"' `i`'-:;•• • ;! `6ws ''r,:'.%; =^cam.,, , .,, `� •,. p ;,,� ,,.r;. .�=«.•^'.t;: .`.it:. `. .4fi ..,Y:d d': ice.=`„, Y'r ..,.,.a I. i "x.;',;:,'�• •.�•. �^ayxm,an"}p;x. 0 .psr-a. �.$'.

Proximity to raw materials or supply sources. i In any suburban area it is well to encourage Industrial Park type operations as new industries are built. It is desirable that any use would be allowed in such a park when it conformed to the following: First, it does not generate or cause smoke, dust, glare, smog, or excessive odors. Second, it does not result in water pollution beyond the limits of the plant. Industrial parks should be designed to protect surrounding uses and properties by providing screening and adequate setbacks. The reservation of space in the industrial park is an aid to industry in providing adequate room for its efficient operation, potential or planned expansion, employee parking, and landscaping and other site improvements. While some light industries may be located near residential neighbor- { ' hoods, others should be located only within special light industrial areas with more open space, or adjacent to heavy industrial districts. Heavy industry should be located where adequate utilities, communication, and transportation are available, where reasonable distances to living areas will minimize commuting time, but where the community will be protected from the greater noise, smoke, odors, and activities of such installations. With the construction of many miles of new highways and freeways within and adjacent to the City, it is the City's objective to aid in creating and maintaining the appearance of clean, attractively landscaped, functional circulation systems. The City further intends to encourage and allow the development of new commercial and industrial park developments adjacent to these freeways and highways in appropriate locations. The standards governing location 40 and development shall be based on those adopted by other municipalities employed in the development of successful industrial and commercial parks in many parts of the U.S. and Canada. The beneficial results which can be achieved may be observed in the nearby Andover and Overlake Park developments located in Tukwila and Bellevue." Comment: The proposed site meets each of the aforementioned site conditions. The proposed action will be consistent with the factors and site conditions desirable for industrial development outlined in the Renton Comprehensive Plan as follows: 1. The site of the proposed action is characterized by level topography with poor drainage in some areas. To bring some building sites up above 100-year flood levels, fill material may be introduced. 2. The proposed 71.16 acre development will be available for purchase in small parcels to be developed in tracts of variable size with a minimum of 2 acres. 3. The heavy warehousing use on the site will have direct railroad transportation available to it, and all uses will have convenient access to I-405 and other regional highways. In addition, both the Renton Municipal and Sea-Tac Airports can easily be reached from the proposed site. 4. As indicated in the respective sections throughout this document, electrical power, water and natural gas systems and sewerage facilities are available to serve the proposed development. 5. The project will employ skilled and semi-skilled workers. Some of these can be expected to be filled by the unemployed Renton work force, however, the majority will be transferred from tenants' and users' alternate sites. 41 6. The site's proximity to Seattle and other Puget Sound metropolitan areas, satisfies this site condition. 7. The site's ready access to railroad, highway and air transportation j contributes to its close proximity to raw materials and supply sources. Although an increase in particulate and dust generation, together with temporary odors (roofing and asphalt paving) will occur during the construction period, these will diminish upon occupancy. It is not expected that smog, smoke and glare would be generated from the uses proposed for the project site. However, a small amount of dust and suspended particulates will be generated during occupancy with the additional vehicular traffic generated by the project. Secondly, implementation of the mitigating measures listed on pp. 511 would assure that water pollution initiated on the site would not extend into the Green River beyond the boundaries of the site. The proposed development will be separated from the residential uses to the north by the wooded hillside. The residential/commercial uses being constructed in the Earlingtron Woods P.U.D. to the east of the site will be bordered by a green belt. The Metro Waste Treatment Facility located to the southwest of the site is adequately separated from the project site by distance, fences and berms. The southern border of the site is adjacent to the Earlington Golf Course, which is proposed to be developed into an industrial park. 4. Land Use Report - Renton Comprehensive Plan L The 1965 Land Use Report, a major element of the Comprehensive Plan, supports industrial development at the subject property. "Adequate provision for future industrial expansion has been indicated in the Earlington flat and Green River Valley areas. Of great importance in the plan concept is the incorporation of industrial park belts adjacent to the freeways and major highways in these developing and future industrial districts." 42 The Land Use Report defines a number of community goals and objectives of which the following pertain to the proposed development: 1. "Provide opportunities for employment of the City's residents within ,^`r convenient walking or commuting distance." �__� 2. "Protect property values within the community for the benefit of its residents and property owners, through the effective control of land use and the enforcement and application of building and construction codes." 3. "Encourage the development and utilization of land to its highest and best use in such a way as to promote the best interest of the community and contribute to its overall attractiveness and desir- ability as a place in which to work, shop, live, and play. • Comment: The proposed action substantially conforms to each of the above goals and it objectives pertaining to the proposed development. The project will provide opportunities of employment accessible to residents of the City. The surrounding property values will be increased by the proposed action. 5. City of Renton Zoning Code (See Figure 5 on following page) The proposal is in an area currently zoned General Classification District (G)--those areas annexed to the City for which no zoning i ! +�1 classification has been fixed or determined by Ordinance. Single family homes on 35,000 square feet are permitted in the "G" zone. 1 ' 1 Comment: Prior to project development, the entire site will be required to be 1� rezoned to Manufacturing Park, which permits essentially the same uses sanctioned in the L-1, Light Industrial District. However, this zoning —, designation imposes standards of intensity with respect to use and level of external effects of the development on traffic congestion, noise levels, glare and heat, water and air pollution and fire and safety hazards. To this end, standards regarding buffers, setbacks, screening and bulk limitations have been established and will be complied with in the development of the Black River Office Park. 4LA -- —c, ?- 1 ,_.,".--*--70 .--1 irk!........

ELEMENTS OF THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT 1. Earth A. Geology Existing Conditions The site is located on the lower Green River alluvial plain. The plain was deposited 10,000 to 15,000 years ago by continuous river action following the retreat of glaciers from the Puget Sound area. The physiography of the lower Green River Valley is characteristic of a mature valley with the river meandering frequently along the corridor. Impacts None. ; _ Mitigating Measures None proposed. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. B. Soils Existing Conditions The surface soils in the Duwamish Valley are typically silts and very fine sands deposited by flooding with some clay and occasional peat. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Soils Conservation Service Soil Survey for King County, 1973 indicates the site is within an area designated as being covered by Woodinville Series. Woodinville Series is made up of nearly level and gently undulating, poorly- drained soils. Slopes are generally 0 to 2 percent. Soil borings taken on the site are analyzed in detail in Appendix A. At shallow depth, these borings encountered generally soft, water- saturated, fine, sandy silt with interbedded layers of silty fine sand. This horizon varies from 5 to 12 feet in thickness. The lower stratum is a loose to medium-dense, water-saturated, slightly silty, fine sand. These soils are probably flood deposits from the Black River. 48 Near the southern edge of the railroad tracks a large quantity of r ! li uncontrolled fill has been placed. This fill , 12 feet thick in some areas, contains large pieces of concrete, steel , and wood along with saturated grey silts and sands. The soft silts, loose sands, and uncontrolled fill are not presently suitable for support of conventional spread or continuous footings without remedial action. These materials are very low in strength j and are highly compressible under conventional foundation loadings. These soils will require a preload or surcharge fill , or pile- supported foundation and possibly floor slabs will be necessary. An extensive surface and groundwater drainage system probably will be necessary in some areas. Impacts Existing topsoils will be repositioned or covered due to excavation and filling activities. It can be expected that up to 70 percent of surface soils will be displaced, compacted or covered as a result of the development. Erosion during construction should be minimal due to the low slope gradients of the site. Mitigating Measures Excavation and grading operations on the site will be performed in conformance with the City of Renton Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts l The addition of fill will reposition or cover native soils. —' i� C. Topography Existing Conditions The topography of the site is generally level with variations in elevation of approximately 12 feet where a large quantity of fill has 49 been, placed. Just south of the railroad tracks, the topography of the site generally slopes downward towards the south at a very low gradient. Impacts Grading and filling will occur in order to provide stable foundations for flood proofing. Changes in elevation are expected to vary only slightly. Approximately 100,000 cubic yards of fill will be necessary to bring low lying portions of the site above the 100 year flood plain. Mitigating Measures Topographic changes could be restricted to limited areas of the site. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Changes in contours of the site will occur. rI D. Unique Physical Features Existing Conditions The site is part of a 70-acre climax riparian hardwood ecosystem, the last remaining example in the lower Green River Valley (Refer to the discussion of Flora in Appendix C of this document. The site is adjacent to the Springbrook Creek at the southwest corner of the site. The creek is considered a "shoreline of significance" and is protected by the Shoreline Management Act of 1971. The creek will eventually be part of the planned P-1 Drainage Channel as described on page 86. The old Black River Channel meanders through the southern part of the I site. Impacts Develoment of the proposal will necessitate removal of much of the portion of the riparian forest located on the site. Springbrook Creek will remain unaltered. The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank. 50 Mitigating Measures a) Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. b) A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. c) As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that the large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. d) The Black River Channel will be protected by a 50-foot setback from the top of the bank. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts See Unavoidable Adverse Impacts for Flora, Fauna, and Surface Water Quantity/Floods. 2. Air Existing Conditions The site is located in the - Green River Valley and has a typical northwest Pacific Coast marine climate. During the fall and winter, prevailing winds are from the southwest, and during the late spring and summer from the northwest. Low-level temperature inversions may occur in the Valley which, coupled with low wind speed, can result in the trapping of pollutants. This condition is most prevalent during the winter months.. ' 1 Data accumulated by the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency I (PSAPCA) indicates that the concentration of suspended particulates ,J in the Renton area has generally increased with increased • urbanization of the Valley. it , 51 The following tables summarize data collected at a number of monitoring stations in the general vicinity of the subject site.

Table 1 indicates the particulate levels are approaching but are still within the Washington State Ambient Air Quality Standards. Carbon Monoxide levels are within the standards. However, an automobile- related pollutant, hydrocarbons, is in excess of the Washington State standards. Based on the proximity of the site to the monitoring stations, it is expected that the air quality conditions are similar to those i recorded. Oxides of nitrogen are well within the annual standard showing the highest average levels during the summer months. There is a small amount of pollutant emissions due to railroad activity on adjacent ` rail lines, although the activity level is quite low. The emissions produced by railroad activity are negligible when compared to the 1 total emissions from vehicles on S.W. Sunset Boulevard and Hardie I 1 Avenue S.W. The site is currently devoid of any noticeable odors, except for occasional emissions from the Metro Sewer Treatment Plant. Impacts Suspended particulate levels will increase over the short-term due to construction activities, particularly during excavation and grading. Noxious odors will be produced from asphalt paving operations, diesel powered machinery and roofing materials. 53 Long-term increases in automobile-related pollutants will occur as local traffic levels increase due to implementation of the proposal . However, progressively more stringent federal air emission controls may improve the expected vehicle-related pollutant levels. Mitigating Measures a) Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. b) Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, cleaning and sweeping of streets at the end of hauling activities should be performed by, the contractor. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Implementation of the proposal will impact area air quality due to increased paprticulate levels and short-term odors during construction activity, and increased air pollution from automobile emissions. 3. Water A. Surface Water Quantity/Quality Existing Conditions The project lies within the Black River Watershed, wherein Mill Creek, Garrison Creek, Panther Creek, Springbrook Creek and other unnamed streams are tributary to the Black River. The Black River discharges into the Green River which becomes the Duwamish River. Surface water is present on the site in the form of seasonal wetland and stormwater runoff, which due to the flatness of the terrain and the fine grain of the soil material , drains poorly into the Black River Channel . Three drainage ditches extend northerly from the 18th fairway of the Earlington Golf Course and serve to disperse runoff into the grove of Black Cottonwoods at the southern perimeter of the riparian swamp. These ditches contain standing water during most of the year. In addition, the old railroad grade forms a trough roughly 10-30 feet 54 wide and 3,200 feet long which is inundated with standing water most of the year. Ponding also occurs in two pools positioned to the north and south of the railroad switching yard fill embankments in the north-central portion of the site. In general , the riparian forest is dotted with wetlands containing standing water for all year save for a few months in the summer season. According to the Earlington Park Water Quality Impact Assessment conducted by Entranco Engineers in 1980, both the Black River and Springbrook Creek have a history of violations of the State Department of Ecology Class A standards for total coliforms. The Black River exhibits relatively high nutrient concentrations and low levels of both dissolved oxygen concentrations and turbidity. Springbrook Creek is characterized by high bacterial contamination and nutrient concentrations; in addition, state standards for dissolved oxygen concentrations are exceeded. However, neither of these water bodies demonstrated evidence of grease and oil . The degraded quality of these water bodies results from surface water runoff from residential , commercial and industrial land uses which contains high concentrations of pesticides, biochemical oxygen demand, bacteria, traces of toxic heavy metals, oil and grease and suspended (and settleable) solids. The Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development presently under construction and located east of the subject site will continue to route stormwater runoff on the western portion of that site through the subject site. Temporary detention ponds will be constructed on the Earlington Woods property and will be utilized until construction completion. Stormwater runoff on the western portion of the Earlington Woods site drains southward through a 24 inch pipe under the railroad tracks then enters natural surface water courses on the subject site and eventually flows into Springbrook Creek. 55 Impacts Development plans call for 13.39 acres or about 22.5% of the riparian forest to be retained on the site, which will continue to accommodate surface water runoff. However, the increase in surface water runoff due to the addition of impermeable surfaces, coupled with the removal of the majority of the riparian wetlands will result in a substantial alteration of existing drainage patterns throughout the site. In accordance with the East Side Green River Watershed project, (of S.C.S.) , drainage from the site will not be detained, but removed from the site as quickly as possible. Increasing the rate of runoff will enable floodwaters to reach the P-1 pumps more quickly, thereby making it possible to pump a much greater volume of floodwater out of the project area before the safe capacity of the Green River Channel is reached and pumping activities have to be reduced in conformance with Corps of Engineers requirements for operating Howard A. Hanson dam. It is planned that stormwater runoff from the site will be directed to the Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. Runoff temperatures during the summer could increase the temperature of Springbrook Creek. However, discharge into the Green River following periods of rainfall is infrequent during the summer. During the winter months there is not likely to be detrimental temperature impacts. Oil/water separators could remove most pollutants. However, some dissolved pollutants may be carried off the site into the Black River Channel . Springbrook Creek will remain unaltered. Off-site runoff from Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development flowing to the subject site will increase due to an increase in impermeable surfaces. 56 ' ' Mitigating Measures a) Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. b) Stormwater runoff will be collected in a storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. c) Oil/water separators should be utilized to remove petroleum products from stormwater. d) Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. e) Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. f) No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the top of the bank of the Black River Channel . Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Coupled with increasing runoff and pollutants from adjacent property that pass through the site, surface runoff from the site will increase and urban pollutant levels in the runoff will increase, particularly during construction. B. Floods (Refer also to East Side Watershed Project, p. 86.) Existing Conditions Construction of both the Howard Hanson dam on the upper Green River and a levee system on the lower Green River eliminated over-the-bank flooding at levels less than a 100-year flood. However, as a consequence of the raised levee system to contain river flows, drainage of the valley to the river by gravity flow is precluded in times of flooding. Flooding of the general vicinity caused by Green River flood waters backing up in the Black River Channel was eliminated when automatic flood gates were installed. The flood gates 57 were eventually replaced by the P-1 pump station. Pumping capacity of the existing structure is 2,945 cfs, but is currently being utilized at less than 10 percent of rated capacity during flow conditions. Once the P-1 Channel is completed, it is estimated that during a 100-year flood that at least 44% of the total flow from such a flood will have been discharged into the Green River before the rate of pumping must be reduced because of increasing flows from the Green River. The P-1 Channel will be approximately 8 miles long. About two-tenths of a mile at the pump plant is already completed; the remaining 7.8 miles will extend to the City of Kent, generally following the courses of Springbrook Creek and Garrison Creek. Impacts . In conformance with State Flood Control requirements, roughly 100,000 cubic yards of fill material will be utilized to bring the lowlying portion of the site to the 100 year design storm elevations. This u would reduce by one-half the existing flood storage volume on the site. The 100-year design storm elevation will be reduced once the P-1 Channel is completed. Mitigating Measures a) Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 year flood plain which will prevent on-site flooding. b) Some areas couldbe left unfilled which may reduce the amount of y ! flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Project development will result in increased surface runoff and simultaneous reduction in flood storage capacity of the site, which + _ will contribute to flooding conditions until the construction of the P-1 Channel and detention pond is completed. 58 C. Groundwater Quantity/Quality Existing Conditions The groundwater within the property is very high and corresponds closely to the water surface in the Black River Channel . Groundwater levels fluctuate from 5' to 10' annually. The increase in surface runoff from upland residential development, , together with disrupted drainage patterns on the Valley floor caused by construction and fill activities, have both contributed to a general raising of the water table. Wetlands containing standing water all year except for a few months in the summer are interspersed throughout the riparian forest on the site. Please refer to the discussion of "Surface Water - Existing Conditions" on page 53 for details of the site' s ponding characteristics. 1 Impacts Infiltration of precipitation into groundwaters through the surface soils will be reduced, becoming mainly surface runoff which will be directed to the old Black River channel . } Construction of industrial uses and the addition of automobile traffic will replace nutrients from vegetation and rainwater with pollutants from paved surfaces, petroleum products, sediments and heavy metal traces from automobiles. It is not expected that pollution of groundwaters will occur to any measurable degree; however, the potential of contamination resulting from a spill does exist. It is expected that groundwater level fluctuations may increase with development; both rising higher during periods of peak flow in the Black River, and sinking to slightly lower elevations during dry weather. i~N The average height of the water table is not expected to increase. 59 Mitigating Measures A reduction in building site coverage could require less filling. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Alteration of groundwater quantity, quality and movement on the site will result from development of the proposal . 4. Flora A site investigation and analysis of resident flora and fauna species currently existing on the site was conducted by Mike Lee, Landscape Architect. This analysis, from which the following discussion has been extracted, has been included as Appendix C in this document. Existing Conditions Approximately 11.5 acres located in the northern portion of the site near the railroad tracks have been cleared and utilized as a dump site. Vegetation on this portion is sparse. The remaining 59.5 acres of the site comprise a major portion of the Black River floodplain. The river, which once connected Lake Washington to the Duwamish River, was cut off from its source when the level of the lake dropped after the opening of the Lake Washington Ship Canal in 1916. Since that time, a slow, narrow stream has flowed through the south edge of the floodplain in an old channel while the remainder has grown up into an extremely dense wetland deciduous forest, comprising from 70-80% of the riparian land area. This type of vegetation is never particularly common and such a large and well- developed area of it is rare in the Seattle area. The forest consists primarily of Ash, Cottonwood, Willow, and Alder with an understory of Blackberry, Knotweed, grasses and herbs. No rare endangered species were found on the site during the survey. There are a number of plant communities as shown in Figure 6 . The communities are not distinct, but rather have been defined by the most prominent species in the area. The community as a whole is unusual in composition and maturity. (Please refer to Appendix C.) PLANT COMMUNITI5 llll!

W.THORPE & ASSOCIATES 61 , Impacts Upon project development about 78% or46.11 acres of the wetland forest would be replaced by buildings, parking lots and roads. The remaining vegetation would be affected as follows: , , 1) The trees of this community are all shallow-rooted and not tolerant of soil compaction from heavy traffic or paving. Most would tolerate a heavy layer of crushed rock and light traffic, but any heavier use of the soil would cause a gradual loss of trees. 2) Development of the site will cause drainage of wetlands and lowering of the groundwater level resulting in a gradual change in forest composition. 3) The trees on this site are susceptible to wind damage. This will particularly be a problem when trees are cleared or thinned, removing the protective barrier. This could create a potential hazard to the property once developed. Mitigating Measures • a) As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory are left undisturbed. b) A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much riparian vegetation as possible. c) Placement of building sites., parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. d) Vegetation along Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. 62 'r Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Up to 78 percent of the natural vegetation on the site will be removed from the site when the proposal is implemented. 5. Fauna Existing Conditions The site is rather special in providing a wetland deciduous forest habitat, an uncommon feature in the Seattle area. The extent of the site and its largely wooded surroundings would suggest a long bird list, although six site visits showed a relative scarcity of wildlife in general . However, the time of year (September) was probably a factor since previous surveys (May) found much larger numbers and kinds of birds. There may be several other reasons for the lower wildlife population observed here. First, there is no large body of water, although the stream does attract some waterfowl . Second, there are no evergreen trees or shrubs, which are needed by many birds and easily found elsewhere. Third, the site is relatively narrow, with railroad I activity on one side, the Earlington Golf Course and industrial development just a few hundred yards away. This narrowness dilutes it the large size of the site. Fourth, the site is rather isolated from other similar vegetation communities. Many birds will find little reason to move to this site from larger deciduous forest networks east of Lake Washington and in Pierce County. Of these, the last two conditions have been accentuated in the years since the 1974 study. Increased construction, traffic and noise on all sides have undoubtedly caused a deterioration of the site's wildlife capacity. The most positive aspects of the site for wildlife are its maturity Jj (in parts) and the major role it fills in the total wooded and open space network between Monster Road and Empire Way. Enhancing its importance to wildlife are the Earlington Golf Course to the south and the wooded hillside to the north, together providing a rich variety of habitats. From those characteristics, it is safe to assume that many birds at least occasionally visit the site, and nest or pass .through i '. 63 the entire area because of its total extent. Thus the removal or compromise of the Black River site could well discourage many bird species from using the area in general . The bird list, while specific to the site in question, assumes the continued presence of at least some of the surrounding vegetation. The list of mammals, reptiles and amphibians in Appendix C of this document are taken from the 1974 Wilsey and Ham report and annotated to show current abundance of the species. These are estimates based on the habitat deterioration of the area since 1974. Regardless of the environmental degradation around the site, this tract of wetland remains for both wildlife and plants an especially large, mature and varied habitat, considering its urban location. As such, it is one of the only habitats suitable for certain species in the Seattle metropolitan area. A Washington State Department of Fisheries report indicates that Springbrook Creek is one of the more important tributaries supporting runs of Coho and chum salmon. Another anadromous fish using these waters include steelhead, sea-run cut-throat, and Dolly Varden. Impacts Clearing of vegetation from the site will reduce wildlife habitat. • Intrusion of human activity will drive many species to alternative habitats. There; majority will be lost in competition for the remaining habitat. Migratory and predatory species using the site for nesting or feeding will be at least partially displaced. The reduction in food supply will further reduce resident and migratory species. Species which are more urban tolerant may inhabit the site in the long-term. There may be a reduction in fish population due to increased turbidity and higher water temperatures, particularly among the juvenile fish population. 64 Mitigating Measures a) Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. I b) As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. c) Surface water quality along Springbrook Creek should be preserved by planting natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Reduction in numbers and diversity of wildlife species will occur as a result of habitat elimination and modification and introduction of human activity. 6. Noise Noise levels in this statement are expressed in A-weighted decibels, or dBA, which best describes the human perception of noise levels. Each increase of 10 dBA in the noise level is subjectively judged as an approximate doubling of loudness. A fluctuating noise can be described statistically by the noise levels exceeded for given percentages of time during a prescribed time period. The commonly used statistical levels are L99, L90, L50, L1'0 and L1, for which the number in the subscript indicates the percentage of time that the given level was exceeded. The L99 and L90 are indicative of background noise in the absence of local noise events. The L50 is the median level , exceeded 50 percent of the time. The L10 is usually indicative of noise from typical traffic events. The L1 is the level exceeded one percent of the time, and is usually indicative of the highest noise levels from trucks, buses, and aircraft. Existing Conditions Calibrated noise measurements were taken at two locations in the site vicinity on April 3, 1980 between 8:00 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Refer to Figure 7 for location of sampling stations.

BASE OFFICE PARK NORTH R. W. THORPE & ASSOCIATES 66 High noise levels in the area of the proposed action are due primarily _! to motor vehicles operating on public highways (traffic on Grady Way, Monster Road and I-405) . Other sources of noise include low-flying ;I ; aircraft, lawnmowers and occasional sounds related to the warehouse use to the southeast of the project site. These sources are approximated by the existing noise level readings shown in Table 5. Rail activity (Burlington-Northern Railroad) is present on the proposal site, however, there was not activity by trains on the adjacent rail lines during the measurement period. Traffic sounds are classified as an "industrial" source of noise according to the coordinator of the Seattle/King County Department of Public Health Noise Abatement program. Accordingly, maximum noise levels for traffic recorded in receiving properties developed for commercial uses, which includes manufacturing park uses, should not exceed 65 decibels (dBA) under the King County Ordinance. The Washington State Department of Ecology (WAC 173-60) has established maximum noise levels permissible for various areas or zones called EDNA's (Environmental Designation for Noise Abatement) which are classified by use as follows: . Class A - Residential areas, where humans reside and sleep Class B - Commercial areas Class C - Industrial , storage and warehouse areas Maximum noise standards for these environments recommended by the Washington State DOE are shown below: li LI 1, 67 TABLE 4 WASHINGTON STATE DOE NOISE LIMITATIONS EDNA of Receiving Property EDNA of Noise Source Class A Class B Class C Class A 55 dBA* 57 dBA 60 dBA Class B 57 dBA* 60 dBA 65 dBA Class C 60 dBA* 65 dBA 70 dBA * From 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. - 10 dBA reduction for receiving property within Class A. These noise levels may be exceeded on the receiving property by 15 dBA for 1.5 minutes, 10 dBA for 5 minutes and 5 dBA for 15 minutes for any one hour, day or night. The L1 levels shown on Table 5 below represent maximum noise levels recorded on the site during daytime sampling in April 1980. These levels range from 63 dBA to 68 dBA. Average noise levels (L50) within the site vicinity are about 55 to 56 dBA. Under the provisions of the Renton Zoning Code, Section 4-734(K) , continuous levels must not exceed a maximum of 70 dBA with adjustments for types and duration of noise. TABLE 5 EXISTING NOISE LEVELS IN DECIBELS (dBA) IN THE VICINITY OF THE PROPOSED BLACK RIVER DEVELOPMENT Station Number Location L1 L10—L50_1,90 Date and Time 1 South of site, about 50' east of Springbrook Creek 63 56.5 55 51.5 April 3,1980 8:20 am 2 Parking lot of Empire Estates to the north of site, 150' from c.l . of Empire Way. 68 61.0 56 50.0 April 3,1980 9:00 am } 68 Readings were taken by R.W. Thorpe & Associates using Quest ANSI 21.4 (Type 2) sound level meter with an attached wind screen. The sound level meter was calibrated with Quest 2G-2728 calibrator before and after each set of measurements. Weather was sunny and about 48 degrees with high clouds and winds between 0-5 miles per hour. Noise Exposure Forecast contours for Renton Municipal Airport show the site to be outside the Noise Exposure Forecast (NEF) 25 line, although aircraft activity is audible. Aircraft activity is expected to increase slightly since the number of flights using the airport is expected to increase in the next 20 years according to the 1978 Airport Master Plan. (Source: Earlington Woods PUD DEIS, January 1979.) During the daytime hours, there is occasional rail activity on the lines adjacent to the site. Typical ranges of noise levels for these activities are shown in Table 6 for various distances from the noise source. TABLE 6 TYPICAL NOISE LEVELS (dBA) AT VARIOUS DISTANCES FROM RAILROAD ACTIVITIES Distance Railroad Activity 50 feet 1/2 mile (2640' ) 1 mile (5280' ) Mainline Tracks Coasting 75-85 55-65 -- Normal Pulling 89-98 66-76 44-54 Whistle 91-120 68-92 46-70 Railyard Switch Engine 61-72 46-52 -- Switching Impacts 83-95 62-73 40-51 Source: Draft EIS for Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development, City of Renton Planning Department, Renton, Washington, January 1979. i, , 69 Passing train noise levels can vary between 75 and 98 dBA at a distance of 50 feet, depending on whether they are coasting or pulling. At one-half mile distance, the range is 55 to 76 dBA. Trains are required by law to sound their whistles when crossing a right-of-way or when an object is blocking the track. Train whistles can increase noise levels by approximately 15 dBA for very short periods of time, but there are no grade crossings in the vicinity and whistle noises rarely occur within a mile of the site. (Source: Farlington Woods PUD DEIS, January 1979.) Planned land use to the south of the site is industrial park, a potential generator of noise from increased traffic and industrial activities. Planned land use to. the east of the site is a Planned Unit Development which would contain multiple-family housing and business/commercial development. This residential use is considered noise sensitive. In summary, slightly adverse noise levels exist on much of the site due to nearby vehicular traffic. Aircraft noise is audible but within the acceptable range, and the adjacent rail activity produces intermittent adverse noise levels for short time periods. Impacts (Short-term) During the construction period, noise levels will increase substantially as outlined in Tables 7 and 8, pp.70-71 . Table 8 indicates the levels of noise generated by particular types of equipment from certain distances. Table 9 illustrates the percentage of time that machinery is operating at noisiest mode as well as the potential abatement levels of that machinery. The residences to the north of the site, as well as those to be constructed to the east will be the most sensitive noise receptors of the project construction noise. __ Mitigating Measures (During Construction) a) Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. 70 ' ' TABLE 7 ANTICIPATED MAXIMUM NOISE LEVELS FROM CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT ! y Noise (dBA) Maximum at , Phase and Duration Equipment Used 50 feet* At 100 Feet* Phase I.

' Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Noise from Construction Equipment and Operations, Building Equipment and Home Appliances, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, NTID 300.1, 1971. 72 b) Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. c) Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00a.m. and 7:00p.m. Monday through Friday. d) Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. e) Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. f) Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. _I Impacts (Long-term) —, The current noise levels of Interstate 405 to the south of the site and the railroad switching yard to the north exceed the noise levels likely to be generated by the proposed industrial park, Increased traffic volumes, and rail traffic, as well as introduction of human activity and reflective surfaces will cumulatively increase the local noise levels. In the event that only a portion of the site were to be developed, the remaining riparian forest wildlife habitat would be adversely exposed to increased noise and human activity levels resulting in disruption of living patterns of more faunal species dependent upon relatively isolated riparian situations. Mitigating Measures a) Landscaping, ,careful site design and berming should be utilized near main roads to deflect noise and reduce its impact. b) (See "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," page 81)• I 73 c) Installation of rubberized railroad crossings where the access road would intersect the railroad spurs to the south of the site would decrease noise generation. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increase in short-term noise due to construction and long-term noise as a result of increased traffic and rail volumes and introduction of human activity. 7. Light and Glare Existing Conditions The site is currently undeveloped and densely vegetated. Hence, no light or glare is generated from the site. Impacts The proposed development would replace natural vegetation with warehouse and office buildings and. parking areas which will be lit. Low level security lighting will also be installed. Street and sidwalk lighting will also be necessary. Light spill to surrounding residences should not be a problem due to distance, topography and vegetation. Some glare will be produced from the buildings and by reflections from windows. However, intensity of these new sources of light should not be greater than light generated from the manu- facturing parks south of the site. Mitigating Measures a) Building wash lighting should not be used. b) Perimeter landscaping, fencing and berming, especially around parking areas and road entrances could reduce light spillage. c) Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Light and glare will be emitted from the site to surrounding properties. 74 8. Land Use (See Figure 8 on the following page.) Existing Conditions The general vicinity of the site is in a transitional stage in terms of land use. The surrounding area is a mixture of industrial and office uses, undeveloped areas, and single-family homes. Between the Renton Shopping Center and the site are a scattering of single-family homes. South of the homes and east of the site, land use consists mainly of warehousing and some office buildings. To the south of the site is the 18-hole Earlington Golf Course, the Metro Treatment Plant and the P-1 pump station. West of the site is Monster Road. To the north is Burlington-Northern Railroad tracks and beyond is the largely undeveloped, heavily vegetated south side of Earlington Hill . The site is a natural riparian forest heavily vegetated with significant deciduous trees such as Ash and Cottonwood. (See existing conditions, Flora, page 59 and Vegetation report, Appendix C.) A narrow dirt road runs from Monster Road easterly along the south side of the railroad tracks. The road has mainly been used by trucks when dumping fill material on the northern edge of the site. Impacts The site will be converted from natural riparian forest into an office park and warehousing uses. The project is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Map except for a small portion in the western portion of the site which is designated as Greenbelt. Actual building dimensions have not been calculated at this time. However, very roughly estimated, the building area for office park and warehousing would be approximately - 775.000 square feet and 155„000 square feet, respectively. The proposed development is not expected to change the land uses in the general vicinity due to the lack of undeveloped buildable land. That land which is not developed in the general vicinity is either proposed to be developed or is land unsuitable for development.

THORPE & ASSOCIATES __ _ • 76 Mitigating Measures An alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts a) Alternative land uses for the site would be precluded during the life of the buildings. b) The natural riparian forest existing on the site would be replaced with warehouse/office uses. 9. Natural Resources Existing Conditions The vegetation on the site and its open space characteristic are both natural resources. Impacts The proposed development will alter the majority of the existing open space and cause the removal of most of the existing vegetation on the site. Construction of the buildings and roads will consume natural resources, including energy and raw materials used in concrete, steel , aluminum, glass, copper and other materials of varying scarcity. Building operation will require cosumption of energy in the form of electricity and natural gas. Gasoline and diesel fuels will be expended by employee and service vehicles of the industrial park. Mitigating Measures Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts a) Consumption of building materials and energy. b) Conversion of natural open space to warehousing and office use with removal of vegetation. 77 10. Risk of Explosion or Hazardous Emission Existing Conditions The land is currently undeveloped and heavily vegetated with trees, shrubs, grasses, and weeds. There is currently no risk of explosion or hazardous emission. The adjacent rail operations present a slight risk. However, stringent, federal safety and packing regulations reduce this risk to a minimum. There are no railroad-related accidents on record in the area, and the risk is no greater at this site than at any other site elsewhere in the country located adjacent to a railroad. The general vicinity was once mined for coal . Remnant tunnels from previous coal mining activity containing hazardous gasses may exist in the surrounding area. However, a U.S. Geological Survey, Preliminary Geologic Map and Brief Description of the Coal Fields of King County, Washington: in 1945, by W.C. Warrren, H. Norbisrath, R.M. Grivetti and S.P. Brown, shows no past mining activity on the subject site. Impacts There will be a slight risk of hazardous emission or explosion during construction. However, risks should be no greater than for any similar development. It is possible that future tenants may introduce hazardous substances onto the site. Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Project development would result in increased risk of explosion or hazardous emission. III. ELEMENTS OF THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT 1. Population and Housing Existing Conditions The Puget Sound Council of Governments (PSCOG) maintains updated projections according to activity allocation model (AAM) districts 78 1 comprising one or more census tracts. The proposed project area is located within Census Tract 259 which, in this case, corresponds directly with the boundaries for AAM 3800. The population projections and household data shown in Table 10 compare characteristics of Census Tract 259, King County and the cities of Renton and Tukwila. TABLE 9 POPULATION AND HOUSEHOLD CHARACTERISTICS AND TRENDS Census Tract Study Areas 259 Renton Tukwila King County Population: 1970 306 25,828 3,509 1,156,633 1978 268 29,300 3,160 1,164,397 1980* 410 29,885 NA 1,264,991** 1990* 634 NA NA 1,399,700 Households: Estimated Total Housing Units-1978 144 11,691# 1,693# 485,651 Average Household Size-1978 1.89 NA NA 2.42 (� * Population Projections provided by PSCOG Research Analyst, Jan Pilskog. ** Source: 1980 Population and Housing Preliminary Report, ,FHC 80-P-49, January 1981. # From the Washington State Office of Financial Management, Population Enrollment and Economic Studies Division, "Population Trends, 1978." -� Impacts The office park development is not anticipated to produce a j significant increase in the area's population. However, it may be expected that the estimated 4,105 employment opportunities generated by the proposal may prompt some non-local employees to relocate near the site. In the event this occurs, a minimal increase in the demand for local housing would result. Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Very slight increase in housing demand. 79 2. Employment Existing Conditions The site presently does not generate employment. Impacts (Short-term) Construction of the proposed project will provide short-term employment, but the number of employment opportunities will depend on the season, individual deadlines, and the size and number of buildings being constructed at one given time. However, it is estimated that the maximum number of construction personnel on the site at one time would number 30 to 40 and most likely be comprised on local population. The hiring of the construction work force will draw from the city's pool 1 of unemployed, to some degree; however, construction contractors tyically retain a large portion of their own work force which may preclude the need to rely on such additional personnel . Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. Impacts (Long-term) The project, when completed, is estimated to attract a maximum of approximately 4,105 permanent employees. (Sources : Puget Sound Council of Governments, "Land Use Inventory 1961 and 1965," and verbal confirmation from Don Pethic (PSCOG) and Dave Markley (TRANSPO) . Thus, the project will create a need for roughly 4,105 skilled and semi-skilled workers, which representsabout 7.0% of the project 1990 work force of Renton. Some of these positions will be filled by the unemployed Renton work force; however, the majority will be transferred from tenants' and users' alternate sires and filled by new personnel who live outside the community. It is estimated that at 80 least 5% or 205 employees would occupy the site at any given time of the day or night. It is reasonable to assume that most of the permanent employees would , reside within a 20 to 30 minute commute of the site, but it is difficult to specify precisely where the new residents would locate. Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. 3. Transportation/Circulation Vehicular Transportation Generated (Refer to Figures 2 and 3, pp. xii and xiii) A prelimiriary analysis of traffic impacts and mitigations associated with the proposed action was conducted by the TRANSPO Group which forms the basis for this discussion below.. The consultant's letter has been included in Appendix D beginning on page D-7. The Black River Office Park is proposed to be constructed in two phases. Access to Phase 1, the eastern half of the site, will be provided by a single road which will connect to the road system proposed to serve the Earlington Park development adjacent to the south. Phase 2, on the western portion of the site, will connect with the Phase 1 circulation system. In addition, a bridge span.- fling the proposed P-1 Charnel would be constructed to provide r access to Monster Road. According to project engineer, Dana • Mower of Triad Associates, construction of this western access bridge is not anticipated to involve any site distance or grading problems. During construction of Phase 1, an alternative access route for emergency aid vehicles would not be available. This impact could be mitigated as outlined in the section on "Mitigating Measures" below. 81 Trip generation estimates were made using a range of assumptions re- garding building design and function (e.g. , one-story or two-story of- fice buildings; office park or general office development, etc..) . The Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 1979 and Arizona DOT Trip Generation Intensity Factors Manual, 1980, were the sources of trip generation rate information. Applying these trip gen- eration rates, we found that this development could generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day (vpd) . The evening peak hour for the warehousing generally is slightly before the traditional 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. evening peak hour. During this 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. time per- iod, the combination of office and warehouse uses are expected to gen- erate between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles per hour (vph) . When these volumes are assigned to the road system, several dominant T atterns. are forecasted. to e,p emerge. During Phase I development, all traffic will flow through the Earlington Park development. This ad- ditional volume will add traffic and increase congestion at most of the major intersections-along Rainier Avenue and Grady Way. When the road adjacent to the west side of Earlington Park is developed, a sub- stantial volume of traffic, especially truck traffic, will shift away from Rainier Avenue to access I-405 at Interurban Boulevard via Grady Way. Even following development of Phase 2 and the accompanying road connection to Monster Road, congestion along Grady Way, Rainier Avenue, and their intersection with 7th Street, Powell Avenue, and Lind Avenue will tend to discourage people from driving these routes and will re- _ salt in a shift of a noticeable portion of traffic onto Monster Road. While mucdh of the automobile traffic is expected to travel to and from the north via Sunset Boulevard, there will be a substantial attraction to and from the south to I-405 via Grady Way and Interurban Avenue. Because many of these intersections currently operate at capacity and because relatively little can be done to increase the capacity of these intersections and/or freeway, there will be several impacts associated with this or any new development in Renton: • People will seek alternative routes to avoid congestion. • Capacity conditions at key locations will extend over longer periods of time such that hour-long capacity conditions today may extend for more than one hour in the future • Some people may shift their mode of travel to transit or may choose to carpool, vanpool, or fleet ride to and from work. 81a Mitigating Measures a) To reduce potential safety hazard, Monster Road should be upgraded to accommodate heavy trucks and increased traffic volumes. This may involve recharnmeli7ition and possible signali7ation of the Sunset Boulevard/Monster Road inter- section. b) To discourage the use of single occupant vehicles, the City may consider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by the zoning code. c) The road proposed to be constructed along the west edge of Earlington Park, to the south of the site, could be extended in such away to provide westerly access £LQUI the Black River Office Park, in order to reduce traffic volumes that flaw through Earlington Park. d) Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. e) If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. l f) Office park management should advise tenants and their -' employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and car- pool programs through a package of information provided at + ' initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park manage- ment should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. g) As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period. h) Any roadwork on-site could be conditioned to allow open at all timac a portion of the road wide enough to permit emergency vehicle access. i) Grade an alignment from Thomas Avenue S.W. which would intersect the road system on-site with a gravel sub base wide enough to allow emergency vehicle access. j). Disruption of traffic flaw in the internal road system could be minimized by installing utilities, within the right-of-way, but outside the roadway proper. 82 • 4. Public Services A. Fire Services Existing Conditions Fire protection to the proposed development will be provided by the Renton Fire Department. All calls to the site will be handled from the main station located at 235 Mill Avenue South. The station has ,a full complement of pumpers, ladder trucks, and air vehicles, with full-time personnel on duty 24 hours per day. The maximum emergency response time would be four minutes. Fire flow near the site is as follows: 4,198 gallons per minute (gpm) at Monster Road and S.W. 7th Avenue if extended, and 6,200 gpm near Thomas and 7th. (Source: Earlington Park DEIS.) Emergency medical aid will be provided by an aid car and two personnel from the Main Station 11 with an average four-minute response time. Impacts The nature of the proposal has been reviewed by the Fire Marshall in relation to its impact on fire protection services provided by the Renton Fire Department. His response letter has been included in this document in Appendix D, p. D-5. The Department is presently operating at or near capacity and response demand is increasing at a rate of 25% per year. Also, average response time, as measured in 1979, exceeds by one minute the minimum standard suggested in the Renton Fire Department Master Plan. He has concluded that "further development in this area should be limited until such time as improvements can be made to provide timely first response capabilities." Mitigating Measures a) Sprinkler systems installed in buildings per City code and Fire Marshall 's requirements will reduce the amount of fire flow required. b) Non-combustible building materials will reduce risks of fire. 83 c) Industrial tenants could be limited to uses that do not utilize any flamable materials. Il Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased demand for fire service will result from development of the I proposal . B. Police Services , i Existing Conditions Police protection would be provided by the City of Renton Police Department. The ratio of police personnel to citizens is 1.7 per 1,000 inhabitants which is below the national average of 2.3 officers _ per 1,000 persons. Personnel in vehicle patrols and at the central station at the -� Municipal Building would service the site. The maximum emergency response time to the proposed site would be three minutes. Impacts The Renton Police Department has the capacity to provide adequate service. However, this development coupled with other proposed developments will require additional personnel . The increase in tax revenue contributed by this development could help negate this impact. When site plan details are more clearly defined by the future tenants, more detailed impacts will be assessed. (Source: Letter written November 12, 1979 by Hugh R. Darby, Chief of ' Police for the City of Renton, Earlington Park Draft EIS). Mitigating Measures a) Tax revenues generated from the development will help offset the cost of additional service. b) Internal security systems could be installed in the building. r, 84 c) Exterior lighting should be placed at strategic locations to provide additional security measures. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. C. Hospital Facilities Existing Conditions The nearest hospital serving the proposed development would be the Valley General Hospital which is located 2-1/2 miles south of the site. The hospital at present has 254 beds. Although the hospital presently operates at a 76 percent annual capacity, it often operates at 90 to 100 percent capacity on weekdays. Optimum use of the hospital facilities has been determined to be operable at 80 percent of capacity.. (Source: Telephone Conversation with Bill Murray, Hospital Administrator, on October 6, 1980). Impacts Impacts on the Valley General Hospital cannot be quantified at this time. However, with the increased automobile traffic generated by the project and the potential of industrial related accidents, hospital usage may experience a slight increase. Mitigating Measures On-site first aid facilities within major buildings should be provided. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Slight increase in hospital use. D. Parks and Recreation Existing Conditions The site is not presently used nor proposed for use by the City of 85 Renton as a park. South and contiguous to the site is the 18-hole Earlington Golf Course. However, this golf course has been proposed to be replaced by the Farlington Manufacturing Park. The site is presently very heavily vegetated, which precludes any opportunity for traditional forms of active recreation and discourages most attempts of passive recreation, such as nature walks and bird- watching. Impacts • Development of the site will preclude any future development or designation for park use. In conformance with the Green River Basth program and to be compatible with Earlington Park's trail system, the project would continue the lineal park along Springbrook Creek. Passive greenbelts will also be included as indicated in the conceptual site plans. (Figure 3 on page xiii.) Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. li E. Maintenance Existing Conditions Roads, water, sanitary sewers and storm drainage systems in the vicinity of the project area are presently maintained by the City of �I Renton. Impacts Demand for public maintenance of roads, water, sanitary sewers and stormwater drainage systems will increase due to eventual development. • However, tax revenues generated by future development would help offset the cost of additional service. i 86 Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased demand for city maintenance service. F. Other Governmental Services East Side Watershed Project The subject site is adjacent to the proposed P-1 Channel of the East Side Watershed Project. Moreover, portions of the channel and detention basin may be located within the site. Questions concerning P-1 Channel location and completion will impact any development on this site, therefore, and must be considered. The East Side Green River Watershed Project is a federally assisted program of watershed protection and flood prevention. It is funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Service and locally sponsored by King County, Renton, Kent, Tukwila, and Auburn.. Authorized by Congress in 1966 under the Watershed Flood Prevention Act (PL-566) , the East Side Project has undergone a series of changes in scope, scale, and purpose. The West Side Green River Watershed Project - originally part of the overall plan - was deactivated in 1977. Several miles of channel improvements have been omitted; channel widths have been reduced by placing storage capacity in detention basins. The original project included benefits to agriculture, which have been deleted because most of the benefitted area is in the process of urbanization. The East Side Project focuses on the Black River and its tributaries - Springbrook Creek, Panther Creek, Garrison Creek, and Mill Creek. Proposed structural measures include enlarging or realigning about 11 miles of the existing creeks. Drainage channels will be expanded to accommodate the 25-year storm runoff. Upstream of the confluence of the Black River and Green River, a pump plant, which has already been constructed, will discharge runoff from the East Side Watershed into the Green River. This P-1 pump plant is designed to handle 100-year 87 peak flows. Because of constraints in operating Howard Hanson Dam on -_ the Green River, continuous pumping capability is limited and storage must be provided within the East Side Project system. Most of this stormwater storage will be incorporated in two detention basins, one of which will be located behind the P-1 pump plant adjacent to the subject site. Springbrook Creek runs to the site. At the adjacentpresent time, -� Springbrook Creek does not have sufficient capacity to pass flood flows from upstream to the P-1 pump plant. The East Side Watershed i'_J Project proposes to replace Springbrook Creek with a wider - 180 to 220 feet - man-made channel . This channel would abut . the subject site to the southwest. Because the subject site is situated close to the existing P-1 pump plant and is adjacent to Springbrook Creek, stormwater drainage plans for the development will be designed to deliver runoff to the creek and the pump plant as quickly as possible. No permanent on-site retention is is anticipated. However, the proposed development would be expected to participate fully in the East Side Project or in other drainage improvements in the area. Another element of the S.C.S. East Side Project affecting the proposal is a 23-acre detention basin immediately upstream of the pump plant and adjacent to Springbrook Creek. This basin, together with another detention basin further upstream, has been designed to provide flood storage during periods of restricted pumping and to provide a large drawdown pool for the pump plant. The locations of the P-1 Channel and the detention basin have tentatively been determined by the Soil Conservation Service and by the sponsors. About 7 acres of the 23 acre detention basin will be located within the west end of the Black River Office Park site, just north of the existing pump plant forebay. 88 Planning for the East Side Watershed Project has been under consideration more than 15 years. Due to this lengthy time frame, the possibility that the drainage project may not be completed should be examined. In the absence of an S.C.S. channel system, stormwater drainage from the project site and from other urban developments within the Black River drainage sub-basin--including the watersheds of Springbrook Creek, Garrison Creek, Mill Creek, and Panther Creek, and the valley floor in Renton and Kent lying east of the Green River -- would severely impact the existing drainage system. Local juris- dictions would have to seek alternative means of handling stormwater runoff. Conceivably, Springbrook Creek would need to be improved and stormwater storage facilities would have to be provided at various ' locations in thee valley. Impacts Storm drainage from the subject site would be routed to the Black River Channel where it would receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into the drainage channel replacing Springbrook Creek. Mitigating Measures Some areas of the site could remain unfilled which may reduce the amount of flood storage displacement resulting from the proposed action. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. 5. Energy Existing Conditions Puget Sound Power and Light Company would provide electrical energy to the proposed development. The Earlington Substation across I-405 from the project and the Renton Junction Substation near the intersection of West Valley Highway and Strander Avenue each distribute 12,470 volts and would supply the proposed project. Underground lines exist 89 along the old railroad grade, just north of Grady Way, curving around and paralleling Monster Road. Lines also exist along S.W. 7th and 10th Avenues and along Powell Avenue S.W. (Source: Telephone conversation with Mr. Don Rushing, Puget Sound Power and Light Company, July 30, 1980.) ' The Washington Natural Gas Company would provide natural gas service to the development should the developer opt for the energy source in the future. At present a 20-inch high pressure supply main extends along Monster Road and could supply the energy needs of the project. Impacts Natural gas and/or electrical energy demand from the site would increase substantially. When site plans are more clearly defined by —I future tenants, an estimation of energy consumption can be calculated. , 1 According to W. J. Finnegan of Puget Power and Light's Licensing and Environmental Compliance Division, the additional electrical load requirements of the proposal will necessitate modification and upgrading of the Puget Power distribution system. Development of the {� subject proposal , in conjunction with other area developments will , as a minimum, require the installation of a new substation and its associated 115 kv high voltage lines. New 12.5 kv distribution lines -� will be constructed as well . Also, Puget Sound Power and Light Company will require a 15 foot easement on all road frontage property lines. In addition, energy will be consumed by commuters and service vehicles going to and from the site. Mitigating Measures i j a) Insulation in roof, walls, flooring and glass should be utilized. b) Energy analysis of building design should be performed. 90 Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased demand for electrical energy and natural gas would result from the proposed development. 6. Communications Existing Conditions The proposed development is within the service area of Pacific Northwest Bell Telephone Company. The company has the ability to supply the needed line capacity for all development in the area as long as they are aware of the need well in advance. To accommodate future service demands of the Renton area, Pacific Northwest Bell is building a new facility which will be completed in late 1981. Impacts All telephone lines will be placed underground and will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. Upon completion of detailed site plans, detailed impacts will be assessed. Mitigating Measures a) All telephone lines will be installed underground. b) Installation of telephone lines will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts None. 7. Utilities A. Water Supply Existing Conditions The proposed development is within the jurisdiction of the City of Renton Public Works Department. A 12-inch main. runs northward along Monster Road and turns eastward where S.W. 7th Avenue would be if extended. 91 Fire flow is as follows: 6,200 gallons per minute (GPM) near Thomas and 7th and 4,198 GPM at Monster Road and S.W. 7th Avenue if extended. Source: Earlington Park DEIS. I Impacts The development will result in increased water demand and water lines will need to be extended into the site. When the preliminary plat is initiated, a computer analysis will be developed to assess the impact of the development on water pressure and availability. -- I Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased demand on water supply. B. Sewers Existing Conditions The City of Renton is the implementing agency for sewer service in the area of the proposed development. The Metro gravity line extends along S.W. 10th Street and terminates at Metro's Renton Sewage Treatment Plant. A 10-inch sewer line extends from S.W. 7th Avenue along Powell into the Metro gravity line. Impacts The development will result in increased sewage flows. When site �— plans are more clearly defined by future tenants, an estimated sewage facility demand will be calculated aid impacts will be assessed. Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased sewage flows. 92 C. Stormwater Existing Conditions Presently there is no closed stormwater drainage system on the site. All water either percolates back into the ground, ponds, or flows off the site in the form of runoff. Nearly all soils on the site are moist to wet throughout the year, with large areas of seasonal ponding. An 18-inch line runs along Powell Avenue S.W. and empties into a 36-inch line along S.W. 10th Street. This line empties into Springbrook Creek south of the site., A 60-inch line along S.W. 7th Street, which serves properties to the east, discharges into the olH Black River Channel .. Runoff from the hillside to the north of the site is partially diked from the site by the railroad. Drainage flows from the Earlington Woods PUD being constructed will be directed through a portion of the subject property to the old Black River Channel. Impacts The total volume of runoff from the site will increase due to greater impervious surface. The drainage system for the site will be designed for no detention capacity and will be able to carry off a 25 year frequency storm. It is planned that surface water runoff would be directed to the existing Black River Channel to receive treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. Mitigating Measures Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will receive wetland treatment prior to discharge into Springbrook Creek. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increased stormwater runoff volume as a result of project development. D. Solid Waste Existing Conditions The businesses and residences in the surrounding vicinity are currently served by General Disposal Company. Dumpsters will be required and can be rented from General Disposal , available in 1 to 40 93 yard sizes. The solid waste is taken to the Renton Transfer Station on N.E. 4th Street and weighed, and ultimately is taken to the Cedar Hills Landfill off of Maple Valley Highway for disposal . ! Impacts ' The proposed development will increase the demand for solid waste collection, which can be adequately provided by General Disposal Company. The solid waste landfill has the capacity to absorb the increased demand. (Source: Telephone communication with Debra Albiso, King County Solid Waste Division, 1/21/81) . Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts -The demand for solid waste collection would increase. 8. Human Health Impacts _J It is not anticipated that the proposed action would result in adverse impacts to human health other than possibly noise, especially during construction. The human response to noise has been documented by the Environmental Protection Agency. Continuous noise at high decibels is not only irritating, but can cause damage to the hearing mechanism and otherwise impair both physical and mental health. Prolonged noise exceeding 80 decibels (dBA) can result in hearing loss. Noise in excess of 55 dBA can interfere with speech and communication, and that above 35 dBA can disrupt sleep. Other physical effects from continuous excessively loud noise levels are increase in blood pressure, and alternations in heart rate, which are usually temporary, but may become chronic. It is improbable that environmental noise in itself causes mental illness; however, the continual exposure to a noise by a person already suffering in a depressed state may promote stress in that person, which does aggravate the condition of mental illness. 94 Although noise levels during construction may exceed comfortable levels for area residents, during occupancy, average noise levels are expected to remain below the Washington State Department of Energy Noise Limitations. (See Table 4, p. 67 .) Mitigating Measures See "Noise - Mitigating Measures" , p. 71-72. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Increase in potential of aggravation of mental health of nearby residents due to an increase in noise levels. 9. Aesthetics Existing Conditions • The site, located at the southern base of Earlington Hill , is presently undeveloped and heavily vegetated with riparian forest. It serves as a visual extension of the open space provided by the Earlington Golf Course to the south. The site is most clearly visible from the Empire Estates residential complex situated atop Earlington Hill to the north of the site. At this time, southerly views from the higher units afford a vista consisting of mixed deciduous and conifer hillside in the foreground, Earlington Golf Course, Longacres and industrial warehousing in the middle distance, and Mount Rainier and the Cascade foothills in the far distance. The hillside southeast of Empire Estates has been cleared and is stated to be replaced by the Earlington Woods Planned Unit Development. Impacts Development of the site will convert a dense riparian forest into an office park characterized by warehouses and office buildings with preserved wetland areas incorporated into the design. The development will be visible to occupants of Empire Estates, Earlington Golf Course (proposed to be developed as a manufacturing park) , Earlington Woods P.U.D. and motorists on Monster Road. 95 { View impacts as a result of development would be noticeable but not ' significant from the residences on Talbot Hill (approximately 1/2 mile to the southeast) and from Grady Way to the south. More significant would be the alteration in southerly views from residences in Empire Estates to the north of the site. Their view of riparian vegetation would be largely replaced by buildings and parking areas. Similarly, future residents of the proposed Earlington Woods P.U.D. would experience westerly views of an office park rather than the existing riparian forest, on that portion of the proposal site. Mitigating Measures Site design and retention of some existing vegetation will soften the impacts of the bulk and mass of buildings. —� Unavoidable Adverse Impacts The visual appearance of the site would be altered in that natural open space views would be replaced by urban views. 10. Historical/Archaeological Existing Conditions Duwamish villages are believed to have existed on the Black River. One of these, Squo'l-qo, was situated at the confluence of the Black and Green Rivers. The inhabitants of this village maintained a fish -I weir on a small creek nearby, possibly Springbrook Creek. Indian villages moved often, forced by the changing course of the river and -a the cultural preference for relatively clean surroundings. Recently two village sites of the 19th century were discovered a short distance east of the project area. Three other sites have been reported, one in the Renton Shopping Center, another at the site of the IBM Building, and a third at the northeast portion of the proposed Earlington Park. Given the high population density on the Black River in historic times' and the large number of recorded and reported sites in the vicinity of the proposed project, the probability that additional sites exist in the project area is extremely high. 96 The Institute for Environmental Studies' Office of Public Archaeology at the University of Washington has conducted a preliminary assessment of the potential archaeological significance of the subject site. A letter indicating its findings and recommendations has been included in Appendix D, p. D-2 of this document. It is suggested that a subsurface coring program be implemented at intervals of 25 meters in those areas that are judged to have high archaeological potential and at 50 meter intervals in other disturbed areas. Thus, coring would not be conducted along the old Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad grade bisecting the site from east to west, the present railroad tracks at the northern boundary of the property and in the channel of the old Black River. Impacts Project development may cover archaeological sites of potential sig- nificance, specifically DuwanxLsh Indian sites. Mitigating Measures Prior to the commencement of construction activities, the proponent will authorize implementation of a coring program. As suggested by the Office of Public Archaeology, any portion of the site which may be de- termined to have archaeological significance could be retained in open space until excavation can be completed. • • Unavoidable Adverse Impact Potential removal of an archaeological site. 11. Economics Existing Conditions The site of the proposed action is located within the Seattle metropolitan area which is currently' experiencing substantial economic growth. The lower Green-Duwamish River Valley is evolving as an industrial-distribution center and has long served as a transportation center. A representative of Caldwell Banker, Commercial Real Estate Services has provided an informational letter which has been included as page D-6 of Appendix D. It states that presently there exist 32 uillion square feet (s.f.) of 97 industrial space in Renton-Tukwila-Rent area. Of this space, approx- imately 1 million s.f. is vacant, which represents a vacancy factor of 3%. (About 485,000 s.f. of this total vacant space was constructed during 1980.) At the present rate of absorption of 200,000 s.f. per month, the existing inventory of vacant industrial space would be oc- cupied in five months. It is acknowledged that industrial real estate conditions may alter con- siderably prior to the time the Black River Office Park is scheduled for completion. However, the proposed site would be attractive to tenants needing rail access because it is one of two sites in the Valley equip- ped with reciprocal switching from both Burlington-Northern and Union Pacific without penalty to the shipper, except on very short, local hauls.The South Seattle market for office space (which includes the Sea-Tac, Tukwila and Renton areas) has a low vacancy rate of 3.4 percent, ac- cording to a market report prepared by the Coldwell Banker Management Corporation.1 A total of 495,000 square feet of office space is sche- duled for completion in the winter of 1980. This would represent a 637 increase in the market supply of office space in this area. Az..- cording to Brent Nicholson of Coldwell Banker, the 1980 absorption rate for office space in south King County was 562,000 square feet. Presently, about 253,000 square feet of new office space in this area is slated to be available for occupancy during 1981, however, because • 1981 absorption rate projections are not readily available, it is dif • - ficult to predict the vacancy rate for office space at the time of pro- ject implementation. J Impacts The project would create short-term construction employment. The development would also partially ease the demand for industrial buildings space. The City of Renton will receive an increase in tax revenues and municipal costs generated from the project. Mitigating Measures None. Unavoidable Adverse Impacts Unknown. 1'The Seattle Market 1980, Coldwell Banker Commercial Brokerage Company, January 1980. 98 SECTION FOUR UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS I. The Physical Environment A. Earth 1. Changes in the contours of a portion of the site, including excavation depths of a maximum of 10 feet for utilities. 2. Addition of fill over native soils. B. Air 1. Increased air pollution from automobile emissions. 2. Increased particulate levels due to construction activity and additional traffic volumes. 3. Short-term odors during construction activities. C. Water 1. Increased surface runoff from the site which will contain an increased level of urban pollutants. 2. Potential alteration of ground water movement, quantity and quality on the site. 3. Project development will result in increased surface runoff and simultaneous reduction in flood storage capacity of the site, ' which will contribute to flooding conditions until the construction of the P-1 Channel and detention pond is completed. D. Flora Elimination of up to 78% of the natural vegetation on the site. E. Fauna A reduction in the ability of the site to serve as habitat for wildlife; redduction in number and diversity of wildlife through elimination of up to 78% of the natural vegetation on the site. 99 F. Noise 1. Increased noise levels over the short-term due to construction activity. 2. Increased noise levels over the long-term due to human activity and increased traffic and rail volumes. G. Light and Glare Light and glare will be emitted from the site to surrounding properties. H. Land Use 1. Replacement of open space and natural riparian forest on most of the site with warehouse/office uses. 2. Preclusion of alternative land uses for the site during the life of the project. I.

LONG-TERM PRODUCTIVITY This section addresses (1) the tradee-offs between short-term gains and long- term environmental losses, (2) the benefits and disadvantages of delaying development approval , and (3) future options that might be foreclosed by implementing the project. Project approval would commit the site to manufacturing park use for at least 50 years, although the structures and foundations would endure for a considerably longer period of time. Implementation of the project, therefore, would represent a trade-off between urban development and continuation of the existing open space. Realization of the project would result in economic benefits to private investors, as well as increased employment opportunities and tax base with related cost to the public and private sectors. An increment of: the regional demand for rail-served warehousing and business/office park space would be satisfied. A warehousing/office complex would be provided in the City of Renton adjacent to established industrial areas. These benefits are balanced against the permanent loss of approximately 71 acres of open space. In addition, long-term modification of soils, hydrologic patterns and natural vegetation would occur. Benefits of deferring the rezone or reserving areas for future options would include: delay of an increase in local traffic volumes, noise levels, light and pollution levels; the retention of existing vegetation and soils and preservation of habitat areas. 102 - !i k I � Implementation of the project would preclude the exercise of the future option for the site, namely preservation of a major open space in response to future demand for urban greenbelts. • On the other hand, deferring the rezone would present some disadvantages. Development at some future time would face increased costs because of inflation and the potential scarcity and increasing costs of building materials. Demand for rail-served warehousing and for office space would not be met at this location. Development of suitable alternate locations within the region, however, could occur with varying environmental costs of the same increment of industrial growth. Delaying of the rezone might allow the development of a project that would be 11 more or less compatible with the surrounding land uses or that would otherwise result in greater or lesser environmental impacts. SECTION SEVEN IRREVERSIBLE AND IRRETRIEVABLE RESOURCE COMMITMENTS j-' Implementation of the proposed project will convert the best remaining climax riparian forest in the Seattle area to a warehousing/office park. Although construction could be planned in phases with retention of some wetlands, the ultimate result of development will be the irreversible and irretrievable loss of an open space resource. Approximately 71 acres of open space will be converted to urban uses. Native soils and natural vegetation of the site will also be committed to urban development. - The use of various construction and building materials required for development of . the proposed land use can be considered an irreversible commitment of these materials, as well as the energy utilized in providing them. Development of the subject site into the proposed land use will require commitment of human resources. Labor and services required of persons in the construction operation, and maintenance of the project facilities are considered an irretrievable commitment of human resources. Additionally, the 103 municipal and public services required to maintain the project will require a commitment of the associated human resources to this area rather than others. $ The proposed use will require a long-term commitment of energy resources, and solid waste facilities. All electrical power and water expended and the waste treatment and solid waste facilities utilized during construction, operation, and maintenance of the proposed project are considered irreversible and irretrievable commitments. The capital expenditures necessary for construction will require a substantial monetary commitment by both the proponent and the City of Renton. However, monies committed to the development should be retrievable over the life time of the project, through the operation of the project facilities. Difficulty of retrieving a portion of building materials at the end of the project's life is dependent on the building design. Glass and aluminum windows could be recovered. If bricks are used in construction, they could be re-used. The form in which other materials will be used is not generally re-useable at the end of the project's useful life. The commitment of utilities and services to the subject site could be utilized at the end of the project's useful life. 1-- 104 SECTION EIGHT MITIGATING MEASURES The Physical Elements of the Environment Earth - Excavation and grading operations on the site will be performed in conformance with the City of Renton Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance. - Topographic changes could be restricted to limited portions of the site. Unique Physical Features - Existing vegetation will be preserved on significant portions of the site. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to ensure good design practice and preservation of as much of the riparian vegetation as possible. - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of greenbelt areas in order that the large groups of trees and understory remain undisturbed. Air - Low emission construction equipment will be used whenever possible. ▪ Measures to control construction dust, such as watering, cleaning and sweeping of streets at the end of hauling activities should be performed by the contractor. Water - ' ,Temporary detention and settling ponds should be utilized during construction of foundations to collect silt and minimize turbidity. ' - Stormwater runoff will be collected in a storm sewer system approved by the Renton Public Works Department. - Oil/water separators should be utilized to remove petroleum products from stormwater. 105 - Catch basins and screens should be included in the stormwater system to collect litter and debris. - No development will occur within a 50 foot setback from the tops of the 11 bank of the Black River Channel . - Fill material will be required to bring some building sites above the 100 ti year flood plain. • - Some areas could be left unfilled which may reduce the amount of flood storage displacement that occurs on the site. - Adequate street and parking area cleaning and maintenance of the stormwater system should be provided. Flora - As many of the existing trees as possible should be retained through maintenance of green belt areas in order that large groups of trees and understory are left undisturbed. - A master landscape plan will be prepared to assure good design practice and preservation of as much as the riparian vegetation as possible. 11 - Placement of building sites, parking lots and roads should be based on tree inventories provided by field surveys. - Vegetation along Black River Channel should be preserved and maintained by the proponent. Fauna 1' - Landscaping materials that provide food sources for birds and small animals should be utilized. - As much natural vegetation should be retained as possible. 1 106 - Surface water quality along Springbrook Creek should be preserved by planting natural riparian vegetation along the drainage-way banks and maintaining wetlands wherever possible. Noise - Noisy operations should be scheduled so that they are not concurrent. - Phased development should be planned which would reduce the size of movements of construction noise. h - Construction equipment should be operated only between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. - Only construction equipment that does not exceed State of Washington maximum environmental noise standards should be used. 11 - Construction equipment should be placed as far away from sensitive noise receptors as possible. - Construction activity should be scheduled so that all truck traffic does not occur concurrently in order to avoid vehicle congestion. h - Landscaping, careful site design and berming should be utilized near main roads to deflect noise and reduce its impact. - Installation of rubberized railroad crossings where the access road would intersect the railroad spurs to the south of the site would decrease noise generation. - (See "Vehicular Transportation Generated - Mitigating Measures," p.81.) Light and Glare - Building wash lighting should not be used. - Perimeter landscaping, fencing and berming, especially around parking areas and road entrances coudl reduce light spillage. 107 - Parking area lighting could be directed so that no direct light spills off the site. Land Use - An alternative development design with limited building area could retain significant areas of the site in open space. I Natural Resources - Building elements could be analyzed for use of techniques, wherever possible, permitting recovery of materials used in construction. The Social Elements of the Environment Transportation/Circulation a) To reduce potential safety hazard, Monster Road should be 11 upgraded to accommodate heavy trucks and increased traffic volumes. This may involve rechanneli7ition and possible signalization of the Sunset Boulevard/Manster Road inter- section. b) To discourage the use of single occupant vehicles, the City may consider limiting the number of required parking spar as to less than is currently prescribed by the zoning code. c) The road proposed to be constructed along the west edge of Earlington Park, to the south of the site, could be extended in such away to provide westerly access auk the Black River Office Park, in order to reri»cP traffic volumes that flora through Earlington Park. d) Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. e) If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. 107a f) Office park management should advise tenants and their employees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and car- __ pool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle-King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park manage- , ment should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. g) As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period. h) Any roadwork on-site could be conditioned to allow open at all times a portion of the road wide enough to pet emergency vehicle access. i) Grade an alignment from Thomas Avenue S.W. which would intersect the road system on-site with a gravel sub-base wide enough to allow emergency vehicle access. j) Disruption of traffic flow in the internal road system could be minimized by installing utilities, within the right-of-way, but outside the roadway proper. Fire Service - Sprinkler systems installed in buildings per City Code and Fire Marshall 's requirements will reduce the amount of fire flow required. - Non combustible building materials would reduce risks of fire. - Industrial tenants could be limited to uses that do not utilize any flamable materials. -1 Police Services - Tax revenues generated from the development will help offset the cost of '_ ' additional service. 108 - Internal security systems could be installed in the building. - Exterior lighting should be placed at strategic locations to provide additional security measures. Hospital Facilities - On-site first aid facilities within major buildings should be provided. Energy - Insulation in roof, walls, flooring and glass should be utilized. Energy analysis of building design should be performed. Communication All telephone lines will be installed underground. Installation of telephone lines will be coordinated with installation of electrical lines. Stormwater Drainage Site runoff will be directed to the old Black River Channel where it will 1 receive wetland treatment prior to its discharge into Springbrook Creek. Human Health See "Noise - Mitigating Measures." Aesthetics Site design and retention of some existing vegetation will soften the impacts l of the bulk and mass of buildings. Archaeological/Historical Any portion of the site which may be determined to have archaeological significance could be retained in open space until excavation can be completed. • 109 SECTION NINE ALTERNATIVES 1. Development of 75% of the site with 25% of the riparian forest retained in clustered open space. Description Site Coverage Use Acreage Percentage Office 34.19 48% Warehouse 12.13 17% Roads 2.85 4% Open Space 7.12 10% Riparian Forest 14.87 21% The primary difference between Alternative 1 and the proposal is the configura- tion of the riparian forest. The proposal would retain the portion of the for- est which parallels the Old Black River Channel, providing a buffer between de- velopment and the channel. With Alternative 1, the shape of the riparian for- est would be clustered or concentrated internal to the site, rather than form- ing a complete buffer along the channel. The purpose of including this alternative is to ascertain the advantages of one 11 configuration over another with respect to adverse impacts on the physical and human environments. Impacts Alternative 1 represents approximately the same mixture of uses and building site coverage percentages as the proposal. Therefore, it may be assumed that the number of employees, the volumes of traffic, the impacts on air quality and the demand for public services and utilities to be generated from implementa- tion of Alternative 1 would closely approximate those impacts of the proposal, which have been discussed in detail throughout this document. It was also de- termined that both scenarios would have very similar impacts on soils, topography and hydrology. ( Although the amount of noise generated in both scenarios would be about the same , the impact of higher sound levels on faunal species would differ in each case. The clustered riparian forest would offer a greater distance from noise sources, thereby potentially reducing its adverse impact on species which require seclu- sion from human activities. With the implementationof either scenario, the diversity of types of both flor- al and faunal species will be altered. Larger mammal species, such as deer, hawk and eagle are more apt to be attracted to a clustered forest rather than a lineal greenbelt. However, because the linear shape would feature increased brushy, "edge" areas, the populations of birds and small rodents would increase with an elongated riparian habitat. 110 Feasibility This alternative would accomplish the objective of the proponent in much the same manner as the proposal. 2. Concentrated Development " Description i Development of 33 acres' ofthe site with 38 acres remaining in open space. Site Coverage Percentage Use Acreage (of 33 acres) Warehouse 5.86 16% Office 16.62 50% Roads .33 1% • Open Space 11.0 33% ,,� (About 4.5 acres of the to-be-developed half of the site is presently cleared. 28.5 acres of this one-half is comprised of riparian forest. 38% (or 11 acres) of this riparian forest would be retained on the developed half of the site and 72% of the riparian forest would be retained over the entire site.) Impacts • " - 1/ Overall, implementation of Alternative 2 would reduce.by roughly one-half the adverse impacts resulting from development of the proposed action. Specific- ally, no development would occur in the western portion of the site. Thus, : 38 acres would remain in open space and riparian forest uses. Direct impacts on soils, topography, flora, fauna, light and glare, noise levels and natural _ resources for that 38-acre area would be eliminated. Indirectly, increased noise levels from construction and long-term human activ- ity an the eastern portion of the site may drive reclusive faunal species from their habitat and discourage migratory species from utilizing the forest. ' L. Construction of impervious surfaces on 707. of the 33 acres to be developed could disrupt natural drainage flows on the western portion of the site, thereby altering existing types of floral species. ' . Impacts to the physical environment in the 33 acre developed portion of the site' would be comparable to those of the proposed project, but the extent of adverse impact would be theoretically reduced by one-half. Therefore, less than 50,000 cubic yards of fill would be required, rather than the 100,000 cubic yards for -, the subject proposal. Hydrology over the eastern portion of the site would be ti, disrupted and directed to the old Black River Channel, whereas the western half would largely retain its natural drainage flows. 111 Because over half of the site would remain undeveloped, one may similarly assume that potential adverse impacts on the human environment (employment, public services and utilities, energy, noise, transportation/circulation and air quality) would be reduced by about one-half. Therefore, from 4,535 to 17,015 vehicles would be generated each day, with 625 to 1,985 vehicles operating during the evening peak hour. Approximately 2,000 employment opportunities would be created on the site. Retention of the majority of the riparian forest would minimize the adverse aesthetic impacts of tree removal resulting from project implementation. Feasibility This alternative would reduce the amount of leasable building space by an undetermined amount. Further, there is a high demand for rail-served warehousing which may not be fully utilized if the project were to - limit this use. For those reasons, the proponent considers this alternative economically infeasible. 3. No Development Description • This alternative would leave the site in its undeveloped state on a permanent basis or on a temporary basis until some other proposal for development is approved by the City. Impacts 11 All adverse environmental impacts of the project would be eliminated. The positive economic benefits of the project are increased property taxes, creation of short and long-term employment and partial alleviation in vacant industrial land demand. Municipal services adn capital costs would not be incurred. The most significant impact of this alternative would be preservation of the riparian forest. This would extend the opportunity for the City to purchase the site and preserve it as a green belt. However, no development would shift the impacts of development to other sites which could be more or less suited for these uses. However, pressure to develop would continue due to Manufacturing Park designation on the Comprehensive Plan, development of the surrounding properties and, increasing demand for industrial land development. Feasibility The "no development" alternative would not meet the objectives of the proponents. The feasibility of the City acquiring the site for the purpose of preservation is unknown, but the market value of property is high and the City' s Comprehensive Plan designates the site for manufacturing park use. 112 Table 10 Comparative Analyses of Alternatives Proposed Action Percentage of Use Acreage Site Coverage 1 Office 35.58 50% Warehouse 12.09 17% Roads 2.85 4% Total developed 50.52 71% Open Space 7.25 10% Riparian Forest to Remain 13.39 19% (Approximately 22.5% of the riparian forest would remain upon development) 1 Alternative 1 - Development of 75% of the site with 25% of the riparian forest retained in clustered open space.

Box 808 i Bellevue, Washington 98009 Subject: Preliminary Soils Exploration Proposed Black River Industrial Park Renton, Washington Gentlemen: In accordance with your request ,we have completed a preliminary soils exploration of the Milwaukee Road property adjacent to Monster Road and the Black River. This report includes the results of our work to date, and pre- sents our comments and recommendations pertinent to future development of the site. 1 j . ( We understand that this heavily wooded parcel may be developed as a warehouse-industrial park, and that our work .is to assess overall soil condi- tions in a preliminary way to provide a basis for planning. More detailed investigations will be necessary once plans have been formalized, in order to determine specific soil bearing capacities, settlement characteristics, wall pressures, etc. Building layouts, site grades and drainage plans are not as yet available. - j ? B-2 Mr. John R. Hanson Page Two 28 December 1979 W-3220 SITE CONDITIONS Our investigation of the site consisted of excavating eleven test pits to depths of approximately 12 feet, using a tractor mounted backhoe. The pits allowed for direct visual evaluation of subsurface conditions including the various soil horizons and water seepages. The Test Pit Logs and a Site Plan showing their approximate location is included in the Appendix of this report. In general , our Test Pits show the site to be underlain by two soil types. The surficial soil is a soft, water saturated, grey, mottled brown, fine sandy silt, with interbedded layers of silty fine sand. This horizon varies from 5 to 12 feet in thickness. The lower stratum is a loose to medium dense, water saturated, grey-blue, slightly silty fine sand. These soils are probably flood deposits from the Black River. Drainage across this property is very poor as evidenced by areas of surface ponding and heavy groundwater seepage within 4 feet of the surface. Along the southern edge of the railroad tracks a large quantity of uncontrolled fill has been placed. This fill is as much as 12 feet thick in some areas and contains large pieces of concrete, steel , and wood, along with saturated grey, clayey silts and sands. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS I. General The soft silts, loose sands and uncontrolled fill encountered in our test pits are not presently suitable for support of conventional spread or continuous footings, without some remedial action. These materials are very low in strength and are highly compressible under conventional foundation loadings. One possible method of dealing with these soils is to utilize a preload or surcharge fill . This surcharge fill would increase allowable soil bearing pressures and cause the majority of the expected settlements to occur before construction begins. A second alternative would be to utilize a pile supported foundation and if necessary a pile supported floor slab. An extensive surface B-3 Mr. John R. Hanson Page Three 28 December 1979 W-3220 and groundwater drainage system will also probably be necessary in some areas of the site The fill being constructed on the property includes saturated sandy silt ti with concrete slabs, debris and trash. This fill is on the order of 10 to 12 feet in depth. It will be subject to large scale settlements, both total and differential , for many years. This fill will also be difficult, if not impossible to drive piling through, because of the concrete and debris, it contains. Such fill can be marginally adequate for parking lots, however, installation of underground utilities through such material is difficult, at best. II. Preload or Surcharge Filling The use of a preload surcharge fill is recommended on the site to raise grade and to reduce the amount of anticipated post construction settlement. Generally, preloading does not eliminate all long term settlement, but places settlements within a more acceptable range. Since a portion of the soils beneath the site consists of soft silts and loose sands, settlements will occur over a long period of time and it does not appear feasible to eliminate all settlement within the lifespan of the proposed buildings. With any preloading program, the amount of post construction settlement to be expected depends on several factors, including the following: 1) height of preload; 2) time of preloading; 3) subsurface soil characteristics; 4) anti- r- cipated building and site loads. Ideally, a preload should be considerably heavier than any anticipated long term site load and left in place for an extended time period. Within limits, the greater the preload intensity, the less time is required. We would anticipate a loading time on the order of 4 to 6 months for this specific site. However, this must be determined on the basis of deeper test borings. It is essential to the successful performance of the structures that the imported surcharge fill consist of a free draining, clean material capable of being compacted over a wide range of climatic conditions. J'T B-4 Mr. John R. Hanson Page Four 28 December 1979 W-3220 For wet weather work, the soil should generally contain less than 5% fines by weight passing the Number 200 sieve, with the percentage being based on that portion passing the Number 4 sieve. The maximum allowable particle size should be taken as 6 inches. Where building pads are preloaded, this granular fill should cover the entire area of the structure. The granular fill , which will remain below floor elevation should be compacted to at least 90 percent density, based on ASTM:D-1557 (AASHTO:T-180) . Once specific building and locations are set, detailed soil studies will be necessary to establish final preload dimen- sions, depths and durations, as well as anticipated settlements . III. Pile Foundations Structures may also be pile supported. Piles have the advantage of negligible post construction settlement. The economic feasibility of piling will depend upon the anticipated building loads and the depth of pile penetration required. It should also be realized that piles might not be successfully driven or bored through appreciable thicknesses of fill containing concrete or other obstructions. A more detailed soils investigation utilizing test borings and laboratory testing will be necessary prior to design of a pile supported foundation system. For estimating purposes, timber piles may be capable of supporting design loads on the order of 10 to 20 tons each. Higher loads can be carried by Augercast concrete piles. IV. Site Preparation If a preload surcharge fill is chosen, clearing of this site should be limited to the woody, above ground vegetation, and debris. Grass and sod should not be removed from the areas to be filled since doing so would cause disturbance of the underlying soils. Silty soils such as those encountered on the site are extremely susceptible to disturbance when wet. Therefore, we do not recommend any site stripping or construction of compacted fills during wet or even margi- nal weather. If wet weather grading must be performed, the fill should consist of clean sands or gravels. B-5 Mr. John R. Hanson Page Five 28 December 1979 W-3220 In summary, the soils encountered on the site are typical of those • encountered throughout the Kent Valley. They consist of loose sands and silts which are subject to settlement. Remedial measures required on this site are also typical of the surrounding industrial areas; the site will likely have to be surcharged and/or the structures pile supported. —� We appreciate this opportunity to assist you.

The river, which once connected Lake Washington to the Duwamish River, was cut off from its source when the level of the lake dropped after the opening of the Lake Washington Ship Canal in 1916. Since then, only a slow, narrow stream has flowed through the south edge of the floodplain in an old channel, while the remainder has grown up into a wetland deciduous forest. This kind of vegetation is never particularly common and such a large and well-developed area of it is rare in the Seattle area. Enhancing its importance to wildlife are the golfcourse to the south and the wooded hillside to the north, providing together a rich var- iety of habitats. Nearly all the soils on the site are moist to wet throughout the year, with large areas of seasonal ponding. Vegetation is extremely dense, 70% to 80% for- est, entirely deciduous. Plant Communities Following are the major plant associations seen on the site: 1. Ash-Cottonwood. Heavy stands of Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia) and black cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) with average crown heights of 15 to 20 meters and scattered specimens to 40 meters (cottonwood) . Less common are red alder (Alnus rubra) and willows (Salix spp.) . The understory is sparse to very dense with major species being red elderberry (Sambucus callicarpa) , red-osier (Cornus stolonifera) , nettle (Urtica lyallii) , nightshade (Solarium dulcamara) , and creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens) . Reproduction in the understory is almost exclusively cottonwood and ash, indicating that this zone is at a climax stage. The largest cottonwoods (40m x 2m) are de- clining and dying, with young ash and cottonwood soon filling the voids. The largest ash, also declining, are up to 30m x 1.8m. 2. Cottonwood. Large parts of the site contain these thick, "pole-timber" stands of cottonwood. The trees are very close, straight and mostly 10 to 18 meters tall. The understory is very sparse, mostly herbaceous, con- sisting mainly of Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor) , nettle (Urtica lyallii) , baldhip rose (Rosa gymnocarpa) , red-osier (Cornus stolonifera) , creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens) , canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) , and nightshade (Solanum dulcamara) . This community is undoubtedly progressing to a version of the previous ve- getation. 3. Cottonwood-willow. Where there is considerable winter ponding, the cotton- wood community becomes a mixture of cottonwood (20 to 35 meters) and willows (mostly Salix sitchensis and S. lasiandra to 25 meters) with red-osier (Cornus stolonifera) , Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor) and hawthorn (Crataegus oxyacantha) . Because of the seasonal water fluctuations, this is probably the climax vegetation for these spots. C-1 4. Willow groves. These are pure stands of willow, almost entirely Pacific willow (Salix lasiandra) and Sitka willow (S. sitchensis) up to 30 meters tall. The understory is similar to the previous one, with the addition of hardhack (Spiraea douglasii) . There is standing water during the winter on part of this community. This vegetation is probably at a climax for such conditions, though it may eventually become a cottonwood-willow mix. 5. Willow savanna. The climax growth on very wet soils here is usually this sheet of hacdiack (Spiraea douglasii) with scattered willows (mostly Salix sitchensis) . Additional species here are red-osier (Cornus stolonifera) and- some other shrubby willows. 6. Alder. On soils that are never saturated or flooded, the forest composition favors alder (Alnus rubra) with otherwise the same understory as in the cot- tonwood zone. Much of this zone will remain in an alder grove; some of it could eventually contain western red cedar (Thuja plicata) -but no repro- duction of that species is occuring there yet. 7. Blackberries. Large areas of the site are covered with the introduced Himalayan blackberry (Rubus discolor) with occasional islands of hawthorn (Crataegus oxyacantha) . The heavy, unyielding nature of the blackberry growth virtually eliminates the possibility of any further progression in the vegetation in this community. The blackberry is still spreading into the more open, less shaded parts of other zones, though most of the older. forest should remain free of it. 8. Knotweed. A common knotweed (Polygonum lapathifolium) has formed one- species layers on flat, seasonally ponding depressions on the site, espec- ially along the course of the stream. Many of these may ultimately fill in with spiraea, willow and similar plants from surrounding communities.. 9. Grass-herb. Some drier soils, mostly on the east and west ends of the site, are covered with grasses and herbs because of recent or continuing disturb- ance. This is also the major vegetation along with streambanks, where it is being actively invaded by red alder (Alnus rubra to 8 meters) . In the ab- sence of further human activity, such alder invasion can be expected on all of this community except on the railroad embankment. Effects of the Proposed Development: Plant Community The flora survey of the site, resulting in the plant list in this report, re- vealed no rare or endangered species. The community as a whole is unusual in composition and maturity. As a climax stand, the larger portion of the site contains few opportunities for invasion by new and unusual plants. The other parts of the site present no unique habitats for rare plants, though parts of the stream edge have encouraged the development of special communities. Though the site is larger and less disturbed than most wetlands in the region, it is less varied botanically than its overall appearance would suggest. Further, it is being actively encroached upon by introduced species -- i.e. Himalayan black- berry -- which threaten to reduce the variations further. C-2 The fact that this is probably the last and largest old-growth riparian stand in the Seattle area makes it uniquely valuable as a biological (and historical) resource. Only retention of the entire ash-cottonwood grove can ensure the value and integrity of this remnant forest, which is part of the vegetation which once covered most of the valley bottoms in the region. The stands of old growth ash and very large Pacific willow are particularly unusual for both size and number of individuals. Should partial development occur, the remaining vegetation would be effected in the following ways: Soil compaction. The trees of this community are all shallow-rooted and not tolerant of soil compaction from heavy traffic or paving. Most would tol- erate a heavy layer of crushed rock and light traffic, but any heavier use of the soils would cause a gradual loss of trees. Drainage changes. The present vegetation depends on a high water table as well as seasonal flooding on poorly drained soils. Any addition of surface runoff into the forest will cause a gradual change in forest composition; a severe increase in flooding will kill some species. A decrease in drainage into the site will be equally serious. The vegetation along the stream is totally dependent on water and any impediment to stream flow would elimin- ate many individual plants and perhaps certain species altogether. Clearing, Thinning. Any areas in which only scattered trees are left will subject those trees to wind damage. For the kinds of trees on this site, this would be mostly loss of limbs. It should be noted that all of the trees found on the site offer serious branch-dropping hazards, as they de- teriorate badly in age (there is a great accumulation of downed trees and major limbs in the forest there now) . The exposure of any undisturbed for- est to the full sun and wind would also cause some loss along the southern edges. Further, the sun and wind would accelerate evaporation, leading to losses of some more water-dependent species. Air pollution. Few of the woody species here are particularly sensitive to air pollution. Probably some of the more delicate herbaceous species would react to it, but little data is available. Irrigation, herbicides, fertilizers. Cultivation of ornamentals should have negligible effects of the native vegetation, though some loss of annual and perennial species could be expected immediately around areas of herbicide use. Extensive use of herbicides would be of some concern if they are sub- ject to drifting or introduction into surface water. Again, there is in- • sufficient data on chemical reactions for these species. C-3 Plant List The plant list was compiled after six on-foot surveys of the site.

The extent of the site and its largely wooded surroundings would suggest a long bird list, though six site visits showed a relative scarcity of wildlife in general. . . though the time of year (September) was probably a factor since previous surveys (May) found much lar- ger numbers and kinds of birds. There may be several other reasons for the lower wildlife population seen here. First, there is no large body of water, although the stream does attract some waterfowl. Second, there are no evergreen trees or shrubs, something needed by many birds and easily found elsewhere. Third, the site is relatively narrow, with railroad activity on one side, the golfcourse and industrial development only a few hundred yards away. This narrowness dilutes the large size of the site. Fourth, the site is rather isolated from other similar vegetation commun- ities. Many birds will find little reason to move to this site from larger de- ciduous forest networks east of Lake Washington and in Pierce County. Of these, the last two conditions have been accentuated in the years since the 1974 study. Increased construction, traffic and noise on all sides have undoubtedly caused a deterioration of the site's wildlife capacity. The most positive aspects of the site for wildlife are its maturity (in parts) and the major role it fills in the total wooded and open space network between Monster Road, the Earlington Golfcourse and Empire Way. From those character- istics, it is safe to assume that many birds at least occasionally visit the site, and nest or pass through the entire area because of its total extent. Thus the removal or compromise of the Black River site could well discourage many bird species from using the area in general. The bird list, while specific to the site in question, assumes the continued presence of at least some of the surrounding vegetation. The list of rrnutals, reptiles and amphibians are taken from the 1974 Wilsey and Ham report and annotated to show current abundance of the species. These are estimates based on the habitat deterioration of the area since 1974. Regardless of the environmental degradation around the site, this tract of wet- land remains for both wildlife and plants an especially large, mature and varied habitat, considering its urban location. As such, it is one of the only habi- tats suitable for certain species in the Seattle metropolitan area.

Box 66101 Seattle, Washington 98166 RE: Archaeological Assessment of the Black River Industrial Park, Renton, Washington, T23N/R4E/Section 13. Dear Mr. Bonds: In accordance with your request we have assessed the archaeological potential of the property on which the Black River Industrial Park is to be located. This parcel of land lies within the drainage of the former Black River, which flowed from Lake Washington (prior to 1917 when the water level of the lake was lowered due to construc- tion of the Montlake Cut and Hiram Chittenden Locks) meandered southwest and drained into the Duwamish River. Two archaeological sites have been discovered and excavated in the area in the last three years. The Sba'badid site includes two loci of cultural activity and is located just west of the Renton Shopping Center. The two locations at Sba'badid have been interpreted by the investigator as two historic Native American villages, probably occupied by members of the Duwamish group of Indians. The older of the two locations revealed the remains of at least one long house approximately 30' x 75' in size. Early deposits here contained few trade goods while in the later deposits trade goods were common. On the basis of artifacts and subsistence remains, it is thought that this location was probably occupied as a winter village in the first years of the 19th century. The second location at Sba'badid was occupied sometime later, possibly as late as 1865. Preservation at both locations in Sba'badid was excellent due to the sealing action of the silt and sand deposited by the Black River. As you are aware, the Office of Public Archaeology conducted archaeological assessment and testing of the proposed site of the Earlington Industrial Park which will be located at the present Earlington Golf Course. As the result of a systematic subsurface coring project , a buried archaeological site was found at the north- east extremity of the property. The portion of the site located 0 Recycled Paper D-2 Mr. Del Bonds December 11 , 1980 Page Two • within the boundaries of the Earlington Industrial Park was excavated by a crew from the Office of Public Archaeology. The site is presently interpreted as a seasonally reoccupied fishing camp which was probably used before the time of the occupation of the two areas at Sba'badid. Analysis is currently proceeding on the cultural remains taken from the site. Our knowledge of the settlement patterns and subsistence practices of groups occupying the Black River has been substantially augmented by the archaeological studies at the two sites. It should be noted however, the northern limits of the site on the Earlington Golf Course have not been surely established. The possibil- ity exists that the site (45K159) may extend into the property to be occupied by the Black River Industrial Park. This possibility, coupled with the fact that we are now aware of the existence or former exist- ence of several village sites in the general area and that local Indians tended to move their villages often, lead us to believe that the Black River Industrial Park property has a high potential for cultural resources. In order to test the property for possible archaeological sites, we propose a subsurface coring program because past work in the area has shown that aboriginal living surfaces tend to have been buried by alluviation. Both the Sba'badid and the Earlington Golf Course sites lay buried some depth beneath present ground surface, sealed in by I the sands and silts deposited by the Black River. We would suggest that coring be carried out in 25M intervals in areas judged to have high archaeological potential and at 50M intervals in other undisturbed areas. This would exclude coring along the old Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad grade which bisects the property from east to west; the present railroad tracks at the northern boundary of the property since this area is covered with a large amount of fill ; and the channel of the old Black River. These three areas would be excluded from the coring program. Coring of the remaining area, should serve to detect the existence of presently unknown archaeological resources as well as delineate the northern boundary of 45KI59, the Earlington Golf Course Site.

Ericksen, Planning Director .:- RE: Rough Draft - E.I .S. for Black River Industrial Park , My comments regarding the development of Black River Industrial Park are based upon present capabilities of the fire department given the follow- ing information. 1. Virtually the entire area is located outside the 11/2 mile service radius of the fire departments ' first response engine company, and 2 mile service radius of the first response ladder company as re- quired by the Survey and Rating Bureau standards. 2. The present statistics indicate that the amount of responses per calendar year are increasing at a rate of 25% . Present crews are working at or near capacity to maintain required drill and inspection time. 3. Average response time for the area based on statistics gathered in 1979 is one minute over the minimum required under the guide lines I of the Renton Fire Department Master Plan. 4. Plans for a future fire station located on Benson Hwy in the vacinity of S.E. 170th will not improve the first response capabilities to this development. 5. Accessibility of surrounding fire departments to the area is limited I by a man-made and natural barriers; and is subject to inter-agency agreements. 6. The typical type of occupants in this kind of development is of a I high hazard classification either high piled stock or of a highly flammable or hazardous nature requiring special fire protection considerations and increased intervals of inspection. I Based upon these considerations , further development of this area should be limited until such time as improvements can be made to provide timely first response capabilities. I would refer you to the Renton Fire Station Location Study conducted in 1973. In it, under recommendations , it mentions considerations for a I fire station located in the industrial area.

As to your request regarding the overall market in the South King County area, perhaps the following information will be of help to you in your analysis: There are presently 32 million sq. ft . of industrial space in the Renton—Tukwila—Kent area. Of this space, there is approximately 1 million sq. ft. vacant. This would represent a 3% vacancy factor at the present time. The significant point is that there Has only 485,000 sq. ft. of new space built during 1980. As a result, this one million sq. ft . of space, that is available today, represents only five months inventory. Of course, as it is leased, the available square footage becomes less and less.

Thorpe and Associates - 815 Seattle Tower 3rd and University Seattle, WA 98101 SUBJECT: BLACK RIVER OFFICE PARK Dear Ms. Krouse: Thank you for asking The TRANSPO Group to make a preliminary assessment of the traffic conditions associated with the proposed Black River Office Park. This letter presents an estimate of daily and evening peak hour trip generation, a list of anticipated traffic problem areas, and a list of reasonable mitigating measures. Project Description The basis of our analysis is the site plan and project description which was provided by your office. From your letter, we understand this project ' -- will include about 35.58 acres of office development and about 12.09 acres of warehousing. The warehousing is proposed to be served by rail . The , offices could be one or two stories, depending on the market for office space at the time the buildings are being designed. The project is pro- posed to be constructed in two phases. Access to Phase I will be provided by a single road that connects to the proposed road system which serves the Earlington Park Development. Phase 2, on the western portion of the site, will connect with the Phase 1 road system and will build a secondary access to Monster Road across the proposed P-1 channel . Trip Generation Trip generation estimates were made using a range of assumptions regarding building design and function (e.g. , one-story or two-story office buildings; office park or general office development, etc. ) . The Institute of Trans- portation Engineers Trip Generation Manual , 1979, and Arizona DOT Trip Generation Intensity Factors Manual , 1980, were the sources of trip genera- tion rate information. Applying these trip generation rates, we found that this development could generate between 9,070 and 34,030 vehicles per day (vpd) . The evening peak hour for the warehousing generally is slightly before the traditional 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. evening peak hour. During this 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. time period, the combination of office and warehouse uses are expected to generate between 1,250 and 3,970 vehicles per hour (vph) • Twenty-three 148th Avenue Southeast •Bellevue,Washington 98007•(206)641-3881 :i- D-8 • Ms. Deborah Krouse March 20, 1981 Page 2 Impacts 1 When these volumes are assigned to the road system, several dominant patterns are forecasted to emerge. During Phase I development, all traffic will flow through the Earlington Park development. This addi- tional volume will add traffic and increase congestion at most of the major intersections along Rainier Avenue and Grady Way. When the road - 7 adjacent to the west side of Earlington Park is developed, a substan- tial volume of traffic, especially truck traffic, will shift away from Rainier Avenue to access I-405 at Interurban Boulevard via Grady Way. Even following development of Phase 2 and the accompanying road con- nection to Monster Road, congestion along Grady. Way, Rainier Avenue, and their intersection with 7th Street, Powell Avenue, and Lind Avenue will tend to discourage people from driving these routes and will result in a shift of a noticeable portion of traffic onto Monster Road. While much of the automobile traffic is expected to travel to and from the north via Sunset Boulevard, there will be a substantial attraction to and from the south to I-405 via Grady Way and Interurban Avenue. In summary, congestion at intersections east and south of the site will continue to increase. Because many of these intersections currently operate at capacity and because relatively little can be done to increase the capacity of these intersections and/or freeway, there will be several impacts associated with this or any new development in Renton: • People will seek alternative routes to avoid congestion. • Capacity conditions at key locations will extend over longer periods of time such that hour-long capacity conditions today may extend for more than one hour in the future. • Some people may shift their mode of travel to transit or may choose to carpool , vanpool , or fleet ride to and from work. It must be emphasized that these types of impacts will occur regardless of the type, size or location of development or its road system. In addition to the impacts at these intersections, there is likely to be increased congestion and safety hazard potential on Monster Road which is narrow and winding and which has been designed to serve moderate volumes of passenger-sized vehicles. Because much of the traffic will travel north on Monster Road, there will be increased congestion at its intersection with Sunset Boulevard. D-9 ' I Ms. Deborah Krouse March 20, 1981 Page 3 Mitigating Measures There is not a great deal that can be done to the traffic to mitigate impacts through construction of new roads. One exception might be to extend the road that is proposed to be built along the west edge of Earlington Park. Such a road could be tied into a westerly access from the Black River Office Park project and could serve to reduce traffic volumes that flow through Earlington Park. Moreover, if built properly, it could eventually serve as the first stage of the Longacres Parkway. There will likely need to be some upgrading to Monster Road to increase safety and build up the road to support heavy trucks. This would likely include the rechannelization and possible signaliza- tion of the Sunset Boulevard/Monster Road intersection. There are, however, policies and programs that can be instituted to mitigate the impacts associated with the additional traffic generated by this project. These actions could include the following: • Establish a new bus route or modify an existing bus route to pass through the project. • If bus service is modified to be convenient, provide bus passes as a company or office park benefit. • Office park management should advise tenants and their em- ployees of the advantages of fleet ride, vanpool and carpool programs through a package of information provided at initial occupancy for each tenant and coordinated through the Seattle- King County Commuter Pool agency. Office park management should also schedule public information meetings for employers and employees. • As much as practical, office park management should encourage employers to initiate a flextime work schedule so peak period traffic can be distributed more evenly over the 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. peak period, and thus have less impact on the already congested road system. As an inducement to achieve these objectives, the City might want to con- H sider limiting the number of required parking spaces to less than is currently prescribed by code to discourage the use of the single occupant vehicle. D-10 Ms. Deborah Krouse March 20, 1981 Page 4 Summary Like any new development, there will be additional traffic volumes generated by this project -- between 9,070 and 34,030 vpd and between 1,250 and 3,970 vph during the evening peak hour. This additional volume will add to the existing congestion at intersections along major arterials. Minor improvements to street channelization and intersection control will serve to mitigate these congestion and safety impacts. Greater levels of mitigation can be achieved through implementation of measures that encourage transit and high occupancy vehicles. We trust the City recognizes that traffic flow on the existing trans- portation system cannot be measurably improved without major capital improvements like widening I-405, or without significant shifts away from the single occupant vehicle; and even these types of actions will not improve or in most cases even maintain the quality of traffic flow on a local level . In other words, any new development will have some type of adverse traffic impact. The role of a traffic analysis is to identify acceptable measures achievable within the context of project objectives that will mitigate (to make less severe) and de- sirably, but not necessarily, that will eliminate adverse impacts. Then, it is the intent of SEPA to balance the benefits derived from a project with the adverse impacts it generates. I trust this summary addresses the primary issues that City of Renton staff needs to understand the general level of impacts associated with increased traffic volume generated by this project.
