King County Water Pollution Control's May Valley Interceptor Project
12/31 /96
Page 18
This plan has changed over the years to reflect adjusted landuse assumptions. In order to
appropriately develop subregional alternatives for further consideration in the facility planning effort
and predesign process, May Valley project staff conducted a planning workshop on September 28,
1995. At this workshop the King County team described the over all project objective in greater
detail and described what information the project team currently has regarding growth in the study
area. The Team then asked for and received assistance in developing a better "picture" of what
types and level of residential, commercial and industrial growth the King County long range
wastewater system planning should consider. Important of course, was information on current
agency planning processes, the status of the various wastewater system plans and the location of
various important demographic and utility planning data.
Following this workshop, a series of project alternatives, developed by King County and its
consultant, Brown and Caldwell, in conjunction with the City of Renton and others, were evaluated
leading to June 1996 King County Council action on this project. This action, Ordinance 12344,
authorized King County participation with the City of Renton in a sewer interceptor project designed
to eliminate a local system lift station by constructing a one -mile gravity sewer main and to defer
King County's need to build the May Valley Interceptor project. Specifically, the action amended an
existing 1991 Memorandum Of Agreement between King County and the City of Renton, deferred a
$5.4 Million King County project and authorized King County participation in a $3.3.City of Renton
project.
CURRENT EFFORTS
While King County obligations under the 1991 MOA to the City of Renton are being completed, .a
project report, The May Valley Basin Wastewater Conveyance Plan Report; is nearing completion.
This report documents planning efforts and decisions related to the May Valley interceptor extension
and presents the findings of the recent predesign engineering effort. The report describes the
relevant planning efforts, utilities, and natural characteristics of the May Valley basin and presents
various wastewater engineering alternatives developed for the May Valley basin and the City of
Renton's Honey Creek sub -basin.
The final draft report will be forwarded to you in mid -January. Two weeks later, the Report will be
made final, incorporating any comments and suggestions received.
John, thank you again for your help in completing this project. I can be reached at 684-2093 (fax at
689-3119) if you have any questions. And I wish you a safe and Happy New Year!
Sincerely,

Summary of Action:
Brown and Caldwell, Inc. will perform preliminary design services for the Honey Creek Interceptor
Project. A final design element: will be included as a later phase.
Balance of the $521,486.12 project budget covers staff time and the final design element.
Construction funds are proposed within the 1994 and 1995 Capital Improvement Programs with
construction proposed to begin in the summer of 1995.
Because the City's Honey Creek Interceptor project and Metro's May Valley Interceptor project are
integral to one another, a joint board of Metro and City staff selected a single consultant to
perform work for both agencies. Utilizing Metro's consultant selection process, all RFP/RFQ were
published in November of 1992. Five consultants submitted proposals with two being invited for
an interview. Brown and Caldwell was then selected to perform engineering services for both
agencies.
Staff Recommendation:
It is the recommendation of the Planning/Building/Public Works Department that Council authorize
the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the consultant contract with Brown and Caldwell, Inc. to
perform preliminary design services on the Honey Creek Interceptor Project.

SCOPE OF WORK
CITY OF RENTON
SUBBASIN PROJECT HONEY CREEK
PHASE I - PRE -DESIGN
The pre -design phase will be conducted to first identify all
possible, feasible project alternatives and define them
sufficiently for comparison and selection of a preferred project.
Each task will contain a preliminary step that will examine the
identified alternatives from an overview perspective with the
intent of identifying.primary issues. The second step is to
provide detailed studies of the selected alternative in order to
begin implementation.
Task 100 - Project Management
The purpose of'this task to plan and manage the work effort
in order to complete project elements within scheduled
timeframes and within budget and to provide a level of service
consistent with the requirements of the project and needs of the
city.
A detailed work plan will be developed at the beginning of
the project. This plan (Project Management Plan) will coordinate
Brown and Caldwell and subcontractor activities with labor
estimates and budgets, scheduled milestones, and product
deliverables. The plan will also identify protocol for lines of
communication, documentation, and invoicing procedures.
Periodic meetings twice per month during pre -design and once
per month thereafter, will be convened with project staff and
with appropriate outside agencies to assure continued awareness
of project issues and to identify new concerns or project impacts
as early as possible. Minutes of meetings and progress reports
with invoices will document the status of the project.
Task 200 - Environmental Compliance
The objective of this task is to identify and evaluate
environmental impacts and determine mitigation requirements
associated with the Honey Creek project alternatives. This task
will include a preliminary review of all feasible alternatives
and a detailed study of the selected project.
The City of Renton will serve as the lead agency. Brown and
Caldwell will prepare documentation for an expanded Determination
of Non -Significance. All environmental issues identified by SEPA
will be addressed but the focus of analyses will be on concerns
Exhibit B-- Page 1 of 6 e:\adm\802\9938_11\nenxopc.wpw
May 21, 1993
=-11 r . l_ILI, l_1Vlt_,
identified by agencies, the public and other interested groups.
It is anticipated that construction -related issues will be of
greatest concern including (but not limited to) impacts on
traffic, noise, slope stability, soil disposal, ground and
surface water, wetlands, and fisheries. Issues associated with
long-term or operational considerations such as odor, long-term
slope stability, and water quality will also be evaluated.
Study results will be coordinated with both the City of Renton
and Metro on a regular basis throughout the environmental
evaluation. Existing information will be used to the greatest
extent possible including studies done by the City, Metro, and
King County. Environmental studies and evaluation will be
conducted by Adolfson and Associates and Watershed Dynamics
through subcontract.
Issues relating to permits will be identified and mitigation
requirements determined; Mitigation plans for affected natural
resources (wetlands, water quality, and fisheries) will be
summarized in a Mitigation Document along with mitigation plans
for traffic and other affected utilities.
The product of this task will be a SEPA checklist and a
Mitigation Document for the selected project.
Task 300 - Pre -Design
This task will identify issues and concerns of the various
interested parties related to this project and develop these in
sufficient detail to evaluate all feasible alternatives for
providing wastewater conveyance of the entire service area
defined in the Honey Creek Subbasin. A Public Awareness Program
will be designed and implemented to inform the City's target
population of the progress and form of the project.
We propose to initiate this project by meeting with the City
to review all earlier work and identify currently known issues
and interested parties. Potential impacts on the project from
other agencies will be identified through discussions and a
project start-up meeting. Currently, we expect project
involvement by the City and County Parks departments, King County
BALD, King County SWM, King County WD 107, State Department of
Fisheries and possibly by private property owners. Required
permits and their impact including intent, scope and application
procedures will be identified and summarized.
Once initial concerns and issues are identified, preliminary
plans for mapping and geotechnical and environmental
investigations will be made. The Honey Creek subbasin will be
delineated and current and future land use identified. Flow
projections will be made in order to define service requirements.
Projections will be reviewed with Metro for consistency with
previous planning. Design flows will be developed consistent

with the City's comprehensive plan and the current flow
monitoring in Honey Creek Subbasin.
All possible alternatives for providing service will be
identified. Alignments will be established and reviewed on the
ground with City staff. Previous studies by City staff that
evaluated various alternatives will be reviewed. Alternative
alignments that appear advantageous to compliance with current
environmental regulation will be sought and evaluated. Obstacles
precluding implementation will be identified and alternative
refined to eliminate or mitigate problems.
The more promising alternatives will then be defined and
compared in a matrix format for review and comment by applicable
Metro, County and State agencies.
Cost estimates will be prepared and implementation
requirements will be identified for each feasible alternative.
Funding sources and their unique requirements will be identified.
Evaluation criteria will be identified from the set of issues and
concerns evident from the various alternatives. The completed
matrix will be presented for City review and selection of a
preferred project.
A significant effort will be required to develop geotechnical
information and mapping to support alternative identification and
evaluation and to support design of the selected alternative.
These tasks will be done consistent with the level of information
that will be required for environmental review and final design.
Geotechnical investigations will be performed consistent with
defining and evaluating the issues discussed earlier.
Survey control and new aerial photography will be provided
sufficient to produce 1"=50' scale, 2-foot contour interval
degree of accuracy, topographic mapping of the Honey Creek
Drainage Basin. Additional aerial photography, sufficient to
produce photo and planimetric scale mapping, will be required to
provide full coverage of the pumping station/force main
alternatives. This mapping will be supplemented with centerline
profiles. Field map editing and surveys will be provided as
necessary to include existing utility surface structures and
natural features within the mapping.
A Public Awareness Program will be developed to inform the
City's target population of the project's development and to
provide a means for directing citizen input. A periodic
newsletter, directed to the City's target population, will be
prepared to present project issues, progress and goals as well as
other City issues. Newsletters will be prepared midway and at
the end of the predesign phase and later prior to and midway
through construction.
Exhibit B-- Page 3 of 6 e:\edm\802\9938_ll\mntcope.wpw
May 21, 1993
The preferred project will be sufficiently detailed to
identify pipeline alignments, size and material of pipeline, pump
station location, size and type of pumping equipment, power
requirements, architectural considerations, and site development
requirements. The product of Task 300 is a draft and final
report summarizing the various technical investigations,
implementation requirements including permits and funding, and a
recommended plan of action.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 2, 1992
TO: Gregg Zimmerman
FRO on Erickson, for Jim Hanson
SUBJECT: Project Proposal for the May Valley/Honey Creek Interceptor Project
Thank you for your memo of June 1 8th regarding the above referenced project. We have reviewed
the project narrative and believe it does a very good job in identifying most of the necessary design
steps and the types of permits that are likely to be needed to do this project.
One of the issues that we think needs to possibly be given somewhat more weight is the role of
SEPA in helping anticipate environmental impacts early on and incorporate these into the design
process. By using comparative evaluation techniques and establishing environmental impact criteria
early on it would be possible to evaluate different design alternatives for their environmental (and
other) impacts while the proposal is still at the conceptual level. Impacts that will obviously need to
be addressed will be those affecting fisheries and wildlife habitat, steep slopes and topographical
stability, loss of native habitat and impacts on existing or future recreational amenities, and possibly
issues related to future growth and land use because of increased service capacity.
We are assuming that the City would be the nominal lead for the project(s), although you might
want to consider allowing some joint "lead" involvement with Metro and King County on those
portions that they are doing or possibly will be responsible for. The portion of the project in the
county may be contentious, based on our experience with the East Renton Interceptor and Sierra
Heights sewer lines. As a consequence, you may wish to provide a distinct step for public
involvement at the design conceptualization and/or evaluation stage where these group's interest
would be the most meaningful. We can assist you in this effort if you would like us to. If there are
existing environmental documents that are relevant to this project(s), you may also want to consider
incorporating these by reference as a time saving tool.
In reviewing the list of permits that may be required we believe that you may also need to get a
conditional use permit for those portions of the proposed new sewer line (particularly the 21 to 24
inch line) if they traverse private property that is zoned such that utility facilities are only allowed as
conditional uses. Normal sewer, water, electrical service utility lines are not considered to be
"utility facilities" but larger trunk lines, power transmission lines, power substations, and large
pump stations, etc. are. It also appears likely that you will need a Routine Vegetation Management
Permit for the construction of this facility since these sewer lines are of such a size as not to be
exempt from SEPA (8 inches or greater) and this proposal, albeit important to the City has not, as
far as we can tell, been defined as an " ...emergency situation[s] involving immediate danger to life
or property, ...or interruption of services provided by a utility."
Project Proposal for the May Valley/Honey Creek Interceptor Project 7/2/92Page 2
We would like to be involved on the design team for this project and accept your invitation. After
reviewing the proposal, however, it appears that our involvement might be more constructive is we
were involved during the design development phase of the project where different design
alternatives are being considered and their impacts evaluated. In such situations we would see our
role as merely advisory on SEPA type issues if they arose. I have discussed this project with my
staff and would like to assign Lenora Bluman to the Design Team, if that is all right with you. As
you know Lenora has worked Dave Christensen on the East Renton Sewer Interceptor project EIS
for the last few months.
If you have any questions please give me call.
Thanks again for inviting us to participate on your design team.
CC: Jim Hanson
CITY OF RENTON
MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 28, 1993
TO: Gregg Zimmerman
FROM: Dave Christe
SUBJECT: HONEY CREEK/MAY VALLEY INTERCEPTOR
ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS - FUNDING ISSUES
ISSUE:
The City of Renton' and Metro in accordance with the MOA have almost completed the
first phase of the pre -design work which establishes the various alternatives for
providing sufficient capacity in the Honey Creek Subbasin for saturation development.
A screening matrix has been established that lists advantages a.hd disadvantages of
each alternative for both gravity • and pump station methodologies. A section of the
matrix will include cost and funding mechanisms. -
In order to finalize the screening matrix, we must come to agreement on participation
limits for both agencies dependent upon which alternative is selected. This is critical
to the City as it will be a key factor in selecting an appropriate alternative.
RECOMMENDATION:
Given that' what Metro (Metro has offered $400,000; City needs 1.1 million) has
offered us to date is insufficient to meet the project need as we have budgeted, and
given that this project has a strong ability to receive state-PWTF loan funds, it is
recommended that we take the following approach with Metro:
We will request that Metro increase its funding participation from. $400,000 to
$800,000 with the understanding that the City will pursue state PWTF loan for the
remaining portion of the project. If the City is unsuccessful in obtaining this loan
within the 1996 PWTF loan cycle, then Metro shall agree to increase its funding
support from $800,000 to $1,100,000.
DISCUSSION:
The MOA established during Phase III of the Renton Treatment Plant expansion
included system improvements to various portions of Metro's collection system
including the specific system improvement identified as May Valley Interceptor,
Phase I.
Gregg Zimmerman
Honey Creek/May Valley Interceptor Alternatives Analysis
Page 2
The project description in the MOA states that Metro will install 5,400 to 6,000 feet of
24 inch sewer line from existing Metro facilities to a point near the confluence of May
and Honey Creeks. It goes on to provide flexibility by stating that the exact
connection points will be identified following predesign studies and environmental
review (pg. 16, Section 5.3.2 of MOA).
In addition, as this project has been scoped with Metro staff, the emphasis has been
on the need to provide an adequate level of sewer service to the City's Honey Creek
Subbasin. This is evident in both Metro's review of the City's project proposal as well
as during the consultant selection process with the creation of the RFP/RFQ document.
This has lead City staff to believe that Metro shared the City's same objective of
providing sufficient capacity for its Honey Creek Subbasin.
As work progressed in the first phase of the predesign report, it became apparent that
Metro was reluctant to commit any dollars to any alternative that differed from the
initial May Valley system that provided gravity service along May Creek. Any option
that included pumping out of the Honey Creek/May Valley Basin while looked upon
engineering and permitting as feasible, financing was not determined. On December 2,
1993, we met with Metro staff to discuss status of this and other projects. At that
meeting Metro presented us a letter offering $400,000 toward a pumping alternative.
This offer will not meet the minimum financial need for pumping alternatives of
$1,100,000 for Metro as indicated on the alternative cost analysis sheet attached.
We currently are funding the Honey Creek Interceptor at $1,200,000. One alternative
could combine this project with the East Kennydale Interceptor which is budgeted for
$170,000. In addition, we may be able to postpone a lift station rehabilitation project
slated for East Valley due to maintenance work already accomplished which could
provide an additional $105,000 to the total City match. Given the funding parameters
for both agencies, the following are options that can be pursued under .the first two
alternatives (see attached sheets):
Alternative 1:
Original City share $2,075,000
Metro's proposed contribution 400,000
Subtotal: 2,475,000
Total Project Cost: 3,162,450
Additional City Funds Required: ($687,450)
TOTAL CITY PARTICIPATION: $2,762,450

Honey Creek/May Valley Interceptor Alternatives Analysis

Metro has offered the City $400,000 toward a pumping alternative. In order to meet
the project budget, 1 to 1.1 million is needed from Metro. However, if we attempt to
secure a PWTF loan for this project, we could .accept Metro's offer or request an
amount somewhere in the middle without having an additional rate impact on future
years (95 and beyond). There would be some risk involved since the loan could not be
guaranteed.
Our project would rank high due to its ability to provide additional protection to Honey
Creek, provide ability to sewer large portions of Kennydale which is in Zone 2 of APA
and to reduce potential overflows to Honey Creek from Devil: s Elbow Lift Station and
to the local neighborhoods in the vicinity of Sunset Lift Station. It compares closely in
certain areas to two recently funded projects. The first, East Renton Interceptor, had
capacity restraints within its existing infrastructure during peak wet weather events as
does the Honey Creek System. As a result, this project as East Renton did, will
remove a potential health hazard that would result during overflows at peak.
The second similar project is the Dayton LID project, also located in the Kennydale
area, it provides direct local service to a portion of the Kennydale neighborhood. The
Honey Creek project will also provide similar service to a portion of NE 24th Street.
This was a selling point to the PWTF staff because it provides the ability to remove
existing residents from septic systems to public sewer within Zone 2 of our Aquifer

MEMORANDUM
DATE: January 10, 1991
TO: Kathy Koelker-Wheeler, Chair
Members of the Utility Committee
VIA: Mayor rl Clymer
FROM: L n / ttmann, Administrator
Depar ment of Planning/Building/Public Works
STAFF CONTACT: David M. Christensen, Wastewater Utility
SUBJECT: NEIGHBORS FOR MAY VALLEY LETTER REGARDING THE MAY
VALLEY SEWER INTERCEPTOR PROJECT
BACKGROUND:
As part of the Utility System Division's budget for 1991, $10,000 was appropriated to the
May Valley Sanitary Sewer Interceptor project. On November 19, 1990, Neighbors for May
Valley submitted a letter addressed to the Mayor, Council, and administration voicing their
concerns for development of sanitary sewer within the May Valley Corridor. This letter
was presented to Council and referred to the Utilities Committee on November 26, 1990.
The City Clerk responded by letter to the Neighbors for May Valley on November 27,
1990, informing them of it inclusion in the November 26, 1990 Council meeting. A copy
of the Neighbors for May Valley letter is attached for reference.
DISCUSSION:
The letter submitted by the Neighbors for May Valley focused on two major issues. Their
first issue of concern is the potential degradation of their neighborhood as a result of
sanitary sewer becoming available through the proposed installation. They see the
construction of new sewer lines as a contradiction to the adopted Newcastle Community
Plan providing sewer to the area.
The second major issue is the ability of the City to perform a sewer feasibility study in
light of what they feel is an insufficient and inexperienced planning staff. The letter
inaccurately states that $100,000 was proposed by the Utility Systems Division; actually
$10,000 was proposed and appropriated for initiating the May Valley Interceptor Project.
Mayor Earl Clymer
Neighbors for May Valley Sewer Interceptor Project
Page 2
The purpose for the $10,000 is only to pay for City staff time to form an inter -local
agreement between the City, King County Water District 107, and METRO to accelerate
the scheduling of Phase 2 of the May Valley Sanitary Sewer Interceptor Program.
Upon consummating an agreement with Water District 107 and METRO, the City will
determine the necessary steps towards planning, designing, and constructing the interceptor
be it by METRO, Water District 107, the City, or any combination of the above.
CONCLUSIONS:
The Mayor sent a letter to the Neighbors for May Valley (copy attached). In addition, the
Utility System's staff will prepare an issue paper for Council which covers the entire scope
of the May Valley Sanitary Sewer Interceptor project at a later date. Tentative schedule for
that report is early March, 1991.

SUBJECT: May Valley Sanitary Sewer Interceptor
Dear Neighbors:
Thank you for your letter of November 19, 1990. Public input, as well as sound
planning and engineering, are key to the success of a project of this magnitude. Your
input assures the City that the scope of the project addresses all of the pertinent issues.
Your letter included many key issues that will be addressed during the planning stage of
the project. In addition, the City will also hold public meetings to obtain the input of
the affected citizens. Prior to finalization of the design for this project, environmental
review will be completed in accordance with the requirements of the State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
Please understand that the $10,000 (not $100,000 as was indicated in your letter) which
was budgeted in the 1991 Utility Systems Capital Improvement Program is to be utilized
only to pay for City staff time to form an inter -local agreement between the City of
Renton, King County Water District 107, and METRO in order to accelerate the
scheduling of Phase Two of the May Valley Interceptor Program and not for a sewer
feasibility study as was indicated in your letter. A full study of this proposed project
will be completed at a later date pending our discussions with Water District 107 and
METRO.
If your group would like additional information regarding this project, they may contact
David M. Christensen of the Wastewater Utility Section at 277-6212. Mr. Christensen is
the City's project engineer for the May Valley Interceptor Project.
Very truly yours,

7. In light of the above 6 observations, it would appear that to
perform a study of anything as impacting as a sewer line in the
context of anything less than a full basin study (which falls under
King County juris action) wou e inadequate, if not irresponsible.
City of Renton
November 19, 1990
Page 2
8. Renton already has a community planning budget shortage and has
recently lost four experienced key planners. Therefore, it would
appear that Renton does not have the capacity to adequately address
all probable significant adverse impacts that a sewer interceptor
would bring; especially, the obvious pressures that would be brought
to bear by real estate developers.
We feel that the City of Renton should prudently budget its limited
resources both human and cash. The City should focus on the
challenges within its current city limits before attempting to address
complicated issues beyond. We feel that the citizens and tax payers
of Renton would be better served if the $100,000 proposed for the May
Creek sewer interceptor study was spent on immediate needs downtown.
Thank you for your understanding and consideration.
Sincerely,
Neighbors for May Valley

The District received your March 18th, 1991, letter regarding
the May Valley Sewer Trunk Line.
District No. 107 has extensive studies, proposed plans, and
other ancillary information prepared in the mid 1970's. The
project was abandoned for many reasons; consequently, the line was
never installed. However, the District supported such a project
then and is very much interested in seeing it built now.
As a result of new interest by Renton, the District is now
preparing a support letter to Metro for renewing this sewer system
project. We will be sending a copy of our letter to you as soon as
it is ready.
Feel free to call me to review the file or discuss details.

MAY VALLEY INTERCEPTOR
HONEY CREEK INTERCEPTOR
PROJECT OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this joint project between the City of Renton and Metro "is to provide
sufficient sanitary sewer service to the existing as well as future development within
the Honey Creek Sewer Subbasin by installing the last segment of the Honey Creek
Interceptor and the second segment of the May Valley Interceptor. See attached
vicinity and location maps.
I. PROJECT BACKGROUND
The first section of the May Valley Interceptor was constructed in 1971. The
Honey Creek Interceptor was developed as a result of insufficient capacity
within the Sunset Lift Station. In 1981, a moratorium on future connections
within the .Honey Creek Subbasin was established by Resolution No. 2392.
Phase I through III of the Honey Creek Interceptor were completed in 1986,
allowing the removal of the moratorium, but not providing the capacity
necessary for full development of this subbasin (0.6 MGD provided, 1.3 MGD
currently projected to be needed).
As a result of increased development within this subbasin the interim flow
capacity made available by the installation of Phases 1 -III of the Honey Creek
Interceptor is quickly approaching capacity and is -greatly increasing the need
for the last phase of the Honey Creek Interceptor.
The largest unknown to the City was the timing of extension of the May Valley
Interceptor to a point where the Honey Creek Interceptor could connect to it.
This issue was resolved with the passage of a Memorandum of Agreement
between the City of Renton and Metro that committed Metro to the
construction of this portion of the May Valley Interceptor in a timely manner
concurrent with that of the Honey Creek Interceptor.
II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A. Existing Conditions:
The currently proposed route for the Honey Creek Interceptor is along
the East Side of Honey Creek from NE 27th Street to approximately the
convergence of Honey Creek and May Creek. A trail currently exists
within this reach and is being considered for the routing of the new
interceptor.
The alignment proposed for the May Valley Interceptor follows primarily
the existing right-of-way of Jones Avenue NE and Gensing Avenue as
well as within easements adjacent to Gensing Avenue. Jones Avenue
Draft Project Proposal
May Valley/Honey Creek Interceptors Page 2
NE consists of a two lane paved roadway with gravel shoulders.
Approximately one-half of Gensing roadway is paved similar to Jones
Avenue NE. The remaining portion on Gensing Avenue is undeveloped
right-of-way.
B. Scope of Work:
This. project consists of two projects that are being completed jointly by
the City of Renton and Metro. The City.portion of work (Honey Creek
Interceptor) consists of installing approximately 2,700 lineal feet of 12-
inch gravity sewer from -the existing Devil's Elbow Lift Station at NE
27th Street to the convergence of Honey Creek and May Creek. The
line will be installed along the. East Side of Honey Creek primarily within
the existing pathway/trail. The trail will be widened to act as both a
vehicle access road for the sewer as well as a portion of the Parks
Department's Trail System.
Metro's portion of the work (May Valley Interceptor) consists of
installation of approximately 5,400 lineal feet of 21 to 24-inch gravity
sewer. The sewer main will be installed from Jones Avenue NE and NE
40th Street to the convergence of May Creek and Honey Creek where
the Honey Creek Interceptor will tie into it.
The combination of these two projects will provide reliable gravity sewer
service to the City's Honey Creek Subbasin.
C. Preliminary Design Steps:
The steps that will be included within the preliminary design phase are:
1) Establish all potential impact issues of the project;
2) Determine appropriate methodology for environmental process
(combined or separate SEPA documents), etc.;
3) Research and develop Park Department participation in the
project;
4) Analysis of alternative alignments for providing sewer service
needs to the Honey Creek Subbasin;
5) Establish a Public Awareness Program;
6) Perform an aerial survey to analyze the various alternatives;
7) Develop design criteria for the interceptors (sizing, performance,
etc.);
8) Prepare cost estimates of the identified feasible alternatives; and
Draft Project Proposal
May Valley/Honey Creek Interceptors Page 3
9) Combine all data in the form of a report to be used as a guide in
environmental review and final design.
D. Special Design Considerations:
1) Fishery enhancement within the Honey Creek corridor.
2) Identifying sensitive areas within the alternative route corridors.
3) Coordination of design and connection aspects with Metro.
4) Perform geotechnical investigation of alternative routes.
E. Right -of -Way:
Easement needs and assistance to City Parks Department for trail
property acquisition and/or easements will be addressed.
F. Environmental Documents:
An environmental checklist will be prepared for this project.
G. Permits:
A preliminary list of potential permits that will be required include:

SUBJECT: Project Proposals for the May Valley/Honey Creek
Interceptor Project
DATE: June 29, 1992
Both of these projects are necessary, however the potential
to damage the environment in this area is great. I agree
with the proposed routing of the new Honey Creek Interceptor
along the existing Honey Creek Trail on the east side of the
creek. Routing the May Creek line along Gensing Avenue
means crossing May Creek several times. This has the
potential to destroy salmon habitat, in addition to
potential future problems with breakages and spills into the
creek. The Renton School District, under the direction of
Ms. Susanna Eplar, release salmon fry into Honey Creek at
Devil's Elbow with the hope of re-establishing the salmon
that once filled both creeks.
It also appears the proposed Sierra Heights Interceptor will
tie into the Honey Creek Interceptor.

These two projects have a potential to do allot of harm if not
handled well. Laying underground utilities in these sensitive
areas will hopefully not do too much damage.
The project does offer a great opportunity to expand our trail
system. Leslie should probably work with the design team.

Wilcock is ready to raise a stink.
For $10,000, says Wilcock, a
member of the Friends of May Val-
ley, the city will study a proposed
May Valley sewer interceptor that
on one hand might solve a small sep-
tic leakage problem, but on the other
could create bigger headaches.
"Instead of several minor septic
problems, we will have a major
drainage and flooding problem, not
to mention the traffic problem," he
said.
Like Wilcock, some residents of
May Valley and the East Renton pla-
teau see sewers as a dreaded and
expensive symbol that will end a
way of life and will portend devel-
opment, floods and traffic. it
But, to mention the East Renton
plateau's septic systems around
Renton City Hall brings a strong .
reaction about pollution problems
created by leaking septic systems in
urban areas.
"In an urban area with a couple
million people, I don't want a mil-
lion little sewage systems percolat-
ing a few feet beneath the ground,"
says Jay Covington, Mayor Earl
Clymer's executive assistant. "It's
ridiculous."
Covington says the earth can't fil-
ter sewage from homes every 7,000
square feet, the size of some lots
with septic systems. "They're liv-
ing in a city," he says.
Stuck somewhere in the middle of
the debate are residents like Virginia
Bitz and Jeannie Scott. Bitz, Scott
and their neighbors in the Sierra
Heights neighborhood annexed to
the city three years ago with the
hope of getting sewers after years of
taking clothes to a laundry and using
care with showers and toilets. The
residents are still waiting for a solu-
tion to their problems, although at
least Scott says she's not sure that
expensive sewers are the answer.
And so the debate rages on several
fronts.
Friends of May Valley recently
wrote a letter to the city expressing
its concern with the proposed sewer
trunk line.
Meanwhile, another battle will be

posed Honey Creek Ridge annex-
