We understand as part of the referenced final conditional approval (item #18), further analysis that pavement designs near the proposed trash collection area can withstan'd heavy traffic loading from commercial and emergency vehicles. We understand the trash enclosure area has been relocated out of the Coal Mine Hazard buffer area. 1805 -136th Place N.E., Suite 201 • Bellevue, WA 98005 • (425) 449-4704 • FAX (425) 449-4711 Avana Trails, LLC c/o American Classic Homes May 6, 2013 Revised February 26, 2014 ES-2089.02 Page2 In our opinion, the following pavement section recommendations will provide adequate support for occasional HS-20 traffic loading associated with trash collection and loading from commercial/emergency vehicles including, but not limited to, parking of fully-loaded emergency vehicles. The design recommendations were evaluated using a maximum gross vehicle weight of 50,000 pounds and outrigger pressure of 75 pounds per square inch {psi) for emergency vehicles. This section is also provided in the referenced geotechnical engineering study which requires the subgrade be proof-rolled using a loaded dump truck, which would mimic the weight imposed by loaded trash and emergency vehicle loads. In our opinion, the occasional heavy traffic loading and parking is considered transient and is not likely to cause subsidence with.in the existing coal mine hazard area. "The proposed parking/trash facility would be an appropriate use located within the hazard area". Heavy Pavements The performance of site pavements is largely related to the condition of the underlying subgrade. To provide adequate pavement performance, the subgrade should be in a firm and unyielding condition when subjected to proofrolling with a loaded three-axle (100,000 pound gross vehicle weight) dump truck. Structural fill in pavement areas should be compacted as recommended in the "Site Preparation and Earthwork" section of the referenced geotechnical engineering study. It is possible that soft, wet, or otherwise unsuitable subgrade areas may still exist after base grading activities. Areas of unsuitable or yielding subgrade conditions will require remedial measures such as overexcavation, placement of a geotextile and thicker crushed rock or structural fill sections prior to pavement. For relatively high volume, heavily loaded pavements subjected to moderate to high, loaded truck traffic, the following preliminary pavement sections can be considered: • Three inches of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) placed over six inches of crushed rock base (CRB), or; • Three inches of HMA placed over four and one half inches of asphalt treated base (ATB). The HMA, ATB and CRB materials should conform to WSDOT specifications. All soil base material should be compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum dry density.

Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. 27611 Covingtrn Way SE #2 Covingtrn WA <:0042 PNW HOLDINGS LLC -FIELDBROOK COMMONS CITY OF RENTON 1.0 INTRODUCTION MITIGATION PLAN 3-13-2014 NWS-2012-1281 Phare 253-859-(615 Fax: 253-852-4732 This report describes the proposed wetland mitigation for the Fieldbrook Commons PUD project, located on the east side of Benson Road South, and north of Cedar Avenue South (SE I 72"d Street) in the City of Renton, Washington (the "site"). 2.0 PROPOSED PROJECT & MITIGATION SEQUENCING The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a multi-family apartment complex as the property has been zoned for, as well as planned for in the City of Renton Comprehensive plan. The need for apartment units within Renton is high and this project has been proposed to meet that need. The proposed project is the construction of a 161 PUD project with associated infrastructure. The location of Wetlands D, E and F result in most of the developable property on the site being encumbered by wetland or buffer. Since these wetlands, particularly Wetlands E and Fare of low value, and Wetland Dis small in size but because of its linear shape impacts the sites usable space so greatly, we are proposing filling these three wetlands. As a result, it is our intention to fill these wetlands and provide adequate mitigation for their lost functions by creating wetland on the eastern side of the site in and around Wetlands A, Band C. Impacts to wetlands must be justified through a mitigation sequence as detailed in City of Renton Code. Ideally we would be able to use the King County fee mitigation banking process as is preferred by the Corps and W ADOE. We are in agreement that using the fee-in-lieu mitigation option would be ideal and the easiest/fastest way to mitigate the proposed impacts. However, the City of Renton has refused to let us use this as a mitigation option as it moves the mitigation area outside the City limits and in their opinion is a net loss of critical areas to the City. It appears the City looks at the mitigation, and trail through the buffer as part of the "public benefit" aspect of this project. The construction of the mitigation onsite, as well as the placement of a trail through the buffer are being required by the City to allow us to construct this , ' " .. Fieldbrook/# 11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 2 project. It is our opinion that the trail does increase the amount of human intrusion into the wetland, and would be best left off the plan. However, the City of Renton will not accept this and are forcing us to bring a trail through the buffer regardless of the logic. The next best option is on-site replacement of the wetland area and functions as proposed in our mitigation plan. The attached mitigation plan has been prepared with the recommended documents elements as requested by Suzanne Anderson of the US Army Corps of Engineers in previous comments. This plan is prepared in the exact same manner and with the same information as numerous mitigation plans we have submitted and had approved by the Corps for various Nationwide as well as Individual Permits. As requested the monitoring has been modified to include I Oyears of monitoring. ( c) Per the Federal Mitigation Rule, you must provide additional infonnation to document that a watershed approach to compensatory mitigation was used for the mitigation plan [33 CFR 332.3(c)]. A link to Wetland Mitigation Situ Using a Watershed Approach, Ecology Publication #09-06-032 is available from our wcbpage at www.nws.usace.army.mil, select "Regulatory Branch, Permit lnfonnation", then "Mitigation Resources", then "Mitigation Tools". We recommend that you demonstrate that the chosen mitigation site satisfies criteria in Charts 2 and 3 of the site selection guidance (i.e., identified as a site with potential and that is sustainable); and that it satisfies criteria in Charts 4 through 11 for the appropriate functions. Using Chart 2 from the Watershed approach which is an analysis utilized to pick a mitigation site is not really applicable, as the City of Renton is requiring we conduct the mitigation on the site where the impact is occurring. In addition, there is no other available mitigation sites within this drainage basin that is owned by either the City or the client for use as a mitigation receiving site. Therefore, mitigating on-site is the only feasible alternative given these constraints. In regards to Chart 3; Question 3A: Identify /1,e walersl,ed processes //,a/ have been alteretl willlin Ille llydrologic unit wllere Ille mitigation site is located. Human activities can cllange waterslled processes by changing water flows; introducing nutrients, pollutants, non-native species, and sediment; and by fragmenting habitats. Changes in these processes often create problems that can be improved through mitigation activities. To begin you need to identify the major landscape-scale problems (i.e., alterations lo processes, not structure) that exist in the hydrologic unit where your site is found This will help you identify which restoration or enhancement actions will be the most effective in that hydrologic uni/. Clleck the appropriate column in the following table to identify problems tllat might exist. The last column notes if the altered process has already been identified in an existing watershed plan as a problem that needs lo be addressed. . . .. Fieldbrook/# 11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 3 The current flooding events within the Soos Creek drainage are generally not increasing due to the current use of modern storm water facilities within the basin. However, there still is some increase as there is more water getting to the basin faster in storm events. There is less eutrophication in rivers and streams in the basin primarily from removals of livestock and old septic systems. Water quality has been reduced in the basin to a degree. Some stream and bank erosion does occur within the basin. Habitat has become more fragmented as the area's population grows and more development occurs. Question 3B: Will the mitigution result in a wetland of the appropriate hydrogeomorphic (HGM) class for the landscape setting? Wetland mitigation sites are sustainable only if the type of wetland being proposed is appropriate for its position in the landscape. The HGM classification of wetlands is based on characteristics of water movement and position in a landscape. Therefore, it can be used to identify appropriate wetland types for d!fferenl locations in a hydrologic unit. Yes, we will be mitigating for depressional wetlands with a depressional wetland mitigation area. Question JC: Will the primary source of water to the mitigation site be appropriate for the HGMclass? Groundwater and direct precipitation will be the source of hydrology for the wetland mitigation site as was the source for the impacted wetlands. Hydro logic monitoring of the mitigation site has shown that surficial groundwater elevations in the mitigation area will sufficiently hydrate the creation area with soils saturated to the surface and some standing water in the growing season. Question 3D: Will the site have an adequate .rnpply of water to maintain a wetland without engineering the delivery of water that would require long term control or maintenance? The surficial groundwater monitoring and proposed grades should create a wetland area that will require no additional or artificial source of water to maintain its viability. It is thought that Wetland A which is located within the area of an old mine is discharging water from historic mining and as such there is an abundant supply of water in this area. Question 3E: Will the mitigation activities maintain hydric soils, if they exist, at the site? Removing hydric soils can decrease the potential for success of wetland restoration. Hydric soils often contain a seedbank of wetland plants that supplement any planting you may propose. .. Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page4 Hydric soils from the filled wetlands will be mixed with topsoil and utilized in the newly created wetland maintaining viable seedbanks. Question 3F: Can the mitigation be designed lo control aggressive plant species? There is currently not a predominance of aggressive invasive or weedy species in the area of the proposed mitigation or the two wetlands that wi II be connected together with the creation. Standard invasive species control will be utilized in the mitigation area which has proven successful in other mitigation sites.

US Army Corps of Engineers Required Mitigation Using the recommended ratios from Table 1 a, of the WA DOE Publication Wetland Miligalion in Washington State Part 1, (WADOE March 2006 Pub. #06-06-01 la) Table 1 Wetland Size Category Vegetation Ratio Required Type Wetland Creation D 767lsf Ill Forested 2:1 15342sf E 68sf IV scrub-shrub 1.5:1 102sf F l 595sf Ill scrub-shrub 2:1 3190sf Total 9,334sf 18,634sf As described above, based upon the required USA COE and W ADOE ratio, a total of l 8,634sf of wetland is required to be created. Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 8 The proposed mitigation will create 25,430sf of wetland, which exceeds the required USA COE ratios by 6, 796sf. The extra wetland being created over the W ADOE recommended ratios is a result of the City of Renton having a higher mitigation ratio requirement than the Corps. As seen in Table 2 below, using the three main functions from the W ADOE Rating System recognized by the Corps, a substantial functional lift will be attained from the connection of Wetlands A and C with 25,430sfofadditional wetland over the existing functions of the proposed fill wetlands.

This is a substantial lift in function, surface water storage and species richness over the fill of Wetlands D, E & F, which are generally low value Category Ill and IV wetlands. Hydrologic monitoring of mitigation site and general construction overview To compensate for the impact to 9,334sf of Category Ill & IV wetland, we will create 25,430sf of wetland between Wetlands A and C. This results in an overall wetland mitigation ratio of2.72:l (createdwetland:impactedwetland). This mitigation will create Category II wetland for a combination of Category Ill and IV wetland impacts. As depicted on the attached Final Mitigation Plan, 25,430sf of area will be excavated out to a similar depth to the existing wetland in two areas to intercept the surficial groundwater table and create conditions favorable to create wetland hydrology. A series of 6 monitoring pits/wells were located within the proposed wetland mitigation area. These were monitored with weekly site visits from April of 2012-August 2012 as well as March and early April of 2013. At each of these points soil saturation and water table levels were measured to determine what surficial groundwater elevations are, to facilitate designing grades for the new wetland creation area. What we found was that within the proposed creation area, groundwater levels in the early growing season area Cate.,orv .. --------------------- Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 9 between 14" -30" below the existing surface (see table below). It is assumed in the very early growing season (February and March) the groundwater elevations are shallower than the measurements we took, meaning the groundwater elevations are closer to the soil surface. As shown on the attached Final Mitigation Plan Sheets WI-W3, we utilized these existing groundwater contours to create the new grades for our mitigation site. As can be seen by the grades and associated cross-sections, the grades will remove soil down to the existing groundwater elevations to create wetland areas with soils saturated to the surface for the early growing seasons, to also include flat areas that will hold some shallow I" -3" of surface water to provide a variety of wetland hydro logic regimes from saturated, to seasonally flooded. The fact that the excavation is being brought to the higher levels of groundwater within the growing season, and will not cut into the surficial groundwater table, should alleviate the concern of intercepting and draining off this water. All we are doing is removing the surface soil above the existing sloping groundwater table to make those saturated soils closer to the surface. Soil disturbance of the groundwater retaining portion of the soil column will not occur. Although creation of a slope type wetland is not the most conventional or common mitigation method, it is a feasible method of wetland creation when conditions warrant its use. Our company has been involved in two larger wetland creations using this type of concept, most recently a 3 acre wetland creation with over IO' of vertical drop across the landscape in sloping of the creation area (see Snohomish County Parks Centennial Trail II mitigation plan reviewed and approved by Jonathan Smith of the Corps). By using the same method of removing soil down to the level of the highest groundwater elevations as is proposed in the Fieldbrook project, we successfully created a 3 acre sloping wetland in the previously described project.

This will prevent (in the unlikely case of surface water overtopping the edge of the wetland) the wetland creation area between Wetlands A and C from draining into Wetland B. Hydrologic monitoring will be conducted using peizometers in the proposed mitigation area through the winter and spring to verify groundwater elevations. This area will then be graded back at a slope no steeper than 3: l (horizontal :vertical). The area will then be planted with a mix of native trees, shrubs and herbaceous species and will also include several habitat features (logs and snags) to increase its habitat function. As depicted on the attached Field brook Commons Mitigation & Grading Plan ( dated 9- 23-13), a split rail fence will be placed at the edge of the wetland buffer. There are no living spaces or recreational space next to the wetland or its buffer limiting use of this area. However, the City of Renton is requiring that the applicant provide a trail through the wetland buffer as depicted on the plan. We have moved this trail to the north, splitting the buffer area between the wetland creation area and Wetland B to the north to maximize distance of the trail from the wetland as best possible. Signage and a split rail fence along the trail indicates the character of the critical area and will discourage intrusion into the wetland or buffer. All lighting will be located outside the wetland and buffer. All lighting in the developed portion of the site will be directed away from the wetland and its associated buffer. Fieldbrook/# 11-12 l Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 12 The goal will be to create at least 25,430sf of area meeting all three wetland criteria (hydric soils, hydrophytic vegetation, and wetland hydrology) as specified in the Washington State Wetlands Identification Manual (W ADOE, March 1997) and the Western Mountains, Valleys and Coast region Supplement (Version 2.0) dated June 24, 2010. All disturbed buffer areas will be restored with a dense planting of native trees and shrubs. The resulting wetland creation area will be monitored for IO years. The creation area will be delineated at Years 5 and IO to determine if 25,430sf of area meeting wetland criteria has been created. If there is not at least 25,430sfofwetland created, the shortage will be made up with either; I. Fixing any small grading or hydrology issue which may be impacting the overall size of the creation area, or; 2. Purchase of mitigation credits from the King County Fee program or other similar program at that time. Site Protection Instrument The entire mitigation site as well as the buffer and undisturbed wetlands will be placed within a Native Growth Protection Easement (NOPE) and recorded on title prior to occupancy of the project. Long Term Maintenance The mitigation area will be monitored and maintained over the IO year monitoring period. This will include trash removal, weed and invasive species removal, repair of fencing and signage. After the required IO years maintenance and monitoring period, the facility operating manual will include a description of the NOPE are and what type of maintenance can and should occur within this area. Management of the facility will be responsible for this work following the IO year monitoring and maintenance period. • fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. PROPOSED MITIGATION 1.0 MITIGATION PROJECT OVERVIEW March 13, 2014 Page 13 To compensate for the fill of a 9,334sf Category III & IV wetlands, it is proposed to create 25,430sfofwetland between Wetlands A and C. Wetlands to be filled include Wetland D (7,671 sf Category III wetland), Wetland E ( 68sf Category IV wetland) & Wetland F (1,595sf category III wetland). 2.0 MITIGATION GOALS 2.1 Mitigation Goals The mitigation proposal is to connect Wetlands A and C with an area of25,430sfof wetland. The wetland creation areas will be densely planted with native vegetation. The use of diverse native plantings are expected to significantly improve the overall function of the wetland and buffer as it will remove dense thickets of exotic blackberry as well as add emergent and shrub plant communities into what is now, a single class forested wetland. 2.2 Mitigation Goals 2.2.1 Create 25,430sf of emergent, scrub shrub and forested wetland. 3.0 CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE The construction sequence of this project will be implemented as follows: 3.

The approved plans and specifications will be reviewed to ensure that all parties involved understand the intent of the construction documents, specifications, site environmental constraints, sequences, and inspection requirements. 3.2 Construction Staking Fieldbrook/# 11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 14 The limits of clearing and grading near the critical areas will be marked in the field by a licensed professional land surveyor prior to commencement of construction activities. 3.3 Construction Fencing & Erosion Control All erosion control measures adjacent to the critical areas, including silt fencing and orange construction fencing, will be installed. Erosion control fencing will remain around the mitigation area until clearing, grading and mulch placement are complete in upland areas outside the critical areas. 3.4 Clearing & Grading Clearing and grading in and near the existing sensitive area will be per the approved Final Mitigation Plans. 3.5 Stabilization of Mitigation Area All graded areas in the wetland or buffer will be stabilized with mulch upon completion of grading. Orange construction fencing and erosion control fences will be restored (if necessary) and placed around the critical areas. 3.6 Plant Material Installation All plant material will be planted by hand per detail and Construction and Planting Notes. The Mitigation Plan specifies the required size, species, quantity, and location of plant materials to be installed. The contractor will mulch areas disturbed during the planting process. Upon completion of the planting, the erosion control fencing will be restored and repaired. Plant substitutions or modifications to locations shall be approved in writing by the Owner's biologist prior to installation. 3. 7 Construction Inspection Upon completion of installation, the biologist will conduct an inspection to confirm proper implementation of the Mitigation Plan. Any corrections, substitutions or missing items will be identified in a "punch list" for the landscape contractor. Items of particular importance will be soils in pits, pit size, plant species, plant size, mulch around pits, and tree staking. Upon completion of planting, if installation or materials vary significantly from the Mitigation Plan, the contractor will submit a reproducible "as-built" drawing to the Owner. The As-built and installation sign-off report will be submitted to the Corps at that time. 3.8 Agency Approval Following acceptance of the installation by the City, the City biologist should prepare a letter granting approval of the installation. 3.9 Monitoring Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 15 The site (wetland creation, buffer enhancement, buffer restoration and areas of temporary disturbance) will be monitored for IO years to insure the success of the mitigation project. If additional years of monitoring are required by the Corps, the plan will be revised to reflect this change. Any areas of temporary impacts that require restoration will be also monitored for the full IO year monitoring period. 3.10 Silt Fence Removal Erosion control fencing adjacent to the mitigation area will remain in place for at least one year, and/or until all areas adjacent to the mitigation area have been stabilized. The City's Biologist may recommend that the fencing remain in place for a longer duration. 4.0 CONSTRUCTION AND PLANTING NOTES 4. 1 Site Preparation & Grading 4.1.1 The Landscape Contractor will approve existing conditions of subgrade prior to initiation of any mitigation installation work. The Landscape Contractor will inform the Owner of any discrepancies between the approved construction document and existing conditions. 4.1.2 The General Contractor will flag the limits of clearing with orange construction fencing and will observe these limits during construction. No natural features or vegetation will be disturbed beyond the designated "limits of clearing". 4.1.3 The Landscape Contractor will hand grub all non-native invasive plant species including the removal of root crowns. These species may include, but are not limited to Himalayan blackberry, evergreen blackberry, English ivy, and English holly. Weed debris will be disposed of off-site. 4.1.4 The wetland area will be excavated to the depths shown on the Final Mitigation Grading Plan and brought to final grade with 8" of topsoil. The biologist will be on-site to confirm the grading is acceptable for planting. A total of 4" -6" of compost will be incorporated into the upper 12" of all graded areas in the wetland creation area. 4.2 Plant Materials 4.2.1 All plant materials will be as specified in the plant schedule. Only vigorous plants free of defects, diseases and infestation are acceptable for installation. 4.2.2 All plant materials will conform to the standards and size requirements of ANSI Z60. I "American Standard for Nursery Stock". All plant materials will be native to the northwest, and preferably the Puget Sound Region. Plant materials will be propagated • Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 16 from native stock; no cultivars or horticultural varieties will be allowed. All plant materials wi II be grown from nursery stock unless otherwise approved. 4.2.3 No balled and burlapped, or bare root plantings will be used. Only container stock to be used. 4.2.4 All plant materials stored on-site longer than two (2) weeks will be organized in rows and maintained by the contractor at no additional cost to the owner. Plant materials temporarily stored will be subject to inspection and approval prior to installation. 4.2.5 Substitution requests must be submitted in writing to the Owner and approved by the Owner's biologist in writing prior to delivery to site. 4.2.6 All plant materials will be dug, packed, transported and handled with care to ensure protection from injury. All plant materials to be stored on site more than 24 hours will be heeled into topsoil or sawdust. Precautionary measures shall be taken to ensure plant materials do not dry out before planting. Wetland plants will be shaded and saturated until time of installation. Immediately after installation the mitigation planting area will be saturated to avoid capillary stress. 4.2.7 The contractor will verify all plant materials, the quantities shown on the planting plan, and the plant schedule. The quantity of plant materials shown on the plan takes precedent over the quantity on the plant list. 4.3 Plant Installation 4.3.1 All plant materials must be inspected prior to installation to verify conformance of the materials with the plant schedule including size, quality and quantity. Any plant or habitat materials deemed unsatisfactory will be rejected. 4.3.2 All plant materials delivered and accepted should be planted immediately as depicted on the mitigation plan. Plant materials not planted within 24 hours will be heeled-in. Plant materials stored under temporary conditions will be the sole responsibility of the contractor. Plants will be protected at all times to prevent the root ball from drying out before, during, or after planting. 4.3.3 All planting pits will be circular with vertical sides, and will be sized per detail on the mitigation plan and filled with pit soils approved by the Owner's biologist. Planting pits shall not be deeper than the root ball. If native soils are determined to be unacceptable by the Owner's biologist, pit soils will be amended with Cedar Grove mulch or equivalent. 4.3.4 No fertilizers will be used within the wetland. In buffer areas only, install "Agriform", or equal plant fertilizer to all planting pits as specified by manufacturer. .. Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 17 Fertilizers are allowed only below grade in the planting pits in the buffer areas. No sewage sludge fertilizer ("SteerCo" or "Growco") is allowed in the mitigation area. 4.3.5 All containerized plant materials will be removed from their containers carefully to prevent damage to the plant and its roots. Plants removed from their containers will be planted immediately. 4.3.6 All plant materials will be placed as shown on the approved mitigation plan. If the final installation varies from the approved mitigation plan, the contractor will provide a reproducible mylar as-built of the installed conditions. All plant material will be flagged by the contractor. 4.4 Planting Schedule and Warranty 4.4. I A fall-winter installation schedule (October I st -March I 5th ) is preferred for lower mortality rates of new plantings. If plant installation occurs during the spring or summer (March I 5th -Oct. I st) a temporary irrigation system will be required, unless the area can be sufficiently hand-watered. 4.4.2 All disturbed areas will be protected with an arborists mulch to a minimum depth of six inches. 4.4.3 The installer will warrant all plant materials to remain healthy and alive for a period of one year after final acceptance. The installer will replace all dead or unhealthy plant materials per the approved plans and specifications. 4.5 Site Conditions 4.5.1 The installer will coordinate with the Owner and the Owner's biologist for construction scheduling. 4.5.2 Landscape installation will begin after the City acceptance of grading and construction. The Owner will notify the Owner's biologist of acceptance of final grading. 4.5.3 Silt fences will be installed as shown on the approved mitigation grading plans. The installer is responsible for repair and replacement of silt fences disturbed during plant installation. No equipment or soils will be stored inside the silt fences. 4.5.4 After clearing and grading is complete in the mitigation area, exposed soils will be seeded or mulched. Orange construction fence will be placed around the mitigation area to prohibit equipment and personnel in the mitigation area. Fieldbrook/# 11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 18 4.5.5 Final grading will be based upon soil conditions found during excavation of the mitigation area. 4.5.6 All plant material will be planted with suitable soils per planting details. Soils from planting holes will be spread and smoothed across the mitigation area. 5.0 MAINTENANCE PROGRAM This maintenance program outlines the program, procedures and goals for mitigation of the stream and buffer impacts at the mitigation site. This maintenance program will be the responsibility of the project owner through the duration of its ownership of the mitigation area, or throughout the duration of the monitoring period, whichever is longer. The maintenance contractor will complete the work as outlined below. 5.1 Maintenance Work Scope 5.1.1 To accomplish the mitigation goals, normal landscaping methods must be modified to include: a.No mowing or trimming of ground cover or vegetation in the mitigation area. b. No placement of fertilizers in the mitigation area. c. No placement of bark mulch or equivalent in the mitigation area, except as noted in the planting details. d. No placement of grass clippings, landscape debris, fill or ornamental plant materials in the mitigation area. 5.1.2 Work to be included in each site visit: a. Remove all litter including paper, plastic, bottles, construction debris, yard debris, etc. b. Remove all non-native and invasive species identified in Table 3-1 of Sheet W-3 of the Final Mitigation Plan within the mitigation area. All debris is to be removed from site and disposed in an approved landfill. c. Repair silt and/or permanent fencing and signage as needed. 5.1.3 Work to be completed on an annual basis includes: a. Areas containing non-native/invasive species identified in Table 3-1 of Sheet W-3 of the Final Mitigation Plan should be controlled by hand cutting and removing the root crowns for species such as Himalayan blackberry. Following hand removal, treating re-sprouting invasive/non-native species with a glyphosphate herbicide such as Roundup or Rodeo by a licensed applicator can be utilized. b. Replace dead or failed plant materials. Replacement plantings are to be of same species, size and location as original plantings. Plantings are to be installed during the dormant period. ... . ,,., 5.2 Maintenance Schedule Fieldbrook/# 11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 19 The Owner will conduct all items listed in the Maintenance Work Scope on an annual basis. Additional work may be required per the Monitoring Report and as approved by the Corps. Additional work may include removal of the grasses around each shrub and tree, installation of wood chips at each shrub and tree base and erosion control protection. 5.3 Watering Requirements 5.3.1 Watering with a temporary irrigation system will be required during the first spring and summer after the installation. The temporary irrigation system may be removed after the first year providing the plantings are established and acclimated to on- site conditions. 5.4 Close-out of Ten-Year Monitoring Program Upon completion of the monitoring program and acceptance of the wetland mitigation by the Corps, the maintenance of the project will be reduced to include removal oflitter and debris, repair of perimeter fencing and signage, removal of noxious weeds and undesirable vegetation, and repair of vandalized areas. 6.0 WETLAND AND BUFFER 10 YEAR MONITORING PROGRAM 6.1 Sampling Methodology The created wetlands and their associated enhanced and restored buffers as well as areas of temporary disturbance will be monitored once per year over a ten-year period, starting with the first year after the plants have been installed, and as required by the Corps. Monitoring will be conducted using the techniques and procedures described below to quantify the survival and relative health and growth of plant material. A monitoring report submitted following each monitoring visit will describe and quantify the status of the mitigation at that time. Vegetation monitoring will be conducted in August or September during monitoring years. Year l monitoring will occur at least one calendar year after installation sign-off. 6.1. l Hydrology Wetland hydrology will be monitored using seven (7) piezometers per USACOE specifications. These will be located within the restoration area to be placed at the time of the installation sign-off by the biologist. Surface water level or ground water saturation depths will be measured at these stations to determine if wetland hydrology has been successfully attained. As is noted in the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation ·• Fieldbrook/#11-121 Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. March 13, 2014 Page 20 Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987) and the Western Mountains, Valleys and Coast region Supplement (Version 2.0) dated June 24, 2010, wetland hydrology is defined as inundation or soil saturation (usually within 12" of the surface) during the growing season. The growing season for this area is generally defined as the period between the middle of March and the middle of November. However, plant growth often occurs earlier in the year and sound professional judgment will be needed to determine when the growing season is taking place at the site. Hydrology will be monitored twice a month from March I st through May 30th of each year. Wetland hydrology will be considered successfully created if wetland hydrology is observed inundating or saturating the soil within 12 inches of the surface during the growing season 6.1.2 Vegetation The vegetation monitoring consists of inspection of the planted material in late summer or early fall (August-September) to determine the health and vigor of the installation, as well as coverage estimates. All the planted material in the wetland and buffer will be inspected during each monitoring visit to determine the level of survival of the installation. All plants will be inspected and recorded as to whether they are alive or dead based upon the "as-built" in Years I & 2. In Years 3-5, coverage estimates will be used to determine success of the vegetation component. A total of27 permanent 3.0m rectangular monitoring plots will be located within the mitigation area as depicted on Sheet W-3 to monitor shrub and tree species coverages. Within each of these 3.0m plots, the emergent plant community coverage of vegetation will be measured with 0.25m rectangular plots. Estimates of coverage percentages will be made within these plots. Photographs of the mitigation area will be taken from 6 photo points to be located during the installation sign off as well as at each permanent monitoring plot. Photographs will be taken at each of the monitoring and included with the monitoring report for each year from these points. During years I & 2 of the monitoring, replacement plants as well as dead plants will be flagged with distinctive flagging to distinguish what plants these are.

I was met on site by Ed Sewall of Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. Findings All of the created wetland, most of its buffer, and Wetland C have been planted according to the revised mitigation plan by Ed Sewall, dated June 9, 2014. Areas that have not been planted are as follows: The eastern buffer area adjacent to the area of vault construction. A section of the buffer of the existing northern wetland. The center of the utility corridor (Photo 1). The irrigation system and monitoring wells have been installed as required in the mitigation plan (Photo 2). Wood chips have been placed on the trail and the split rail fence installed (Photo 3). A number of shrubs that were to be planted in the buffer were planted in the wetland, and some shrubs to be planted in the wetland were planted in the buffer. Twinberry, a shrub that needs wetland conditions, was planted in the buffer and snowberry and hazel nut, two upland species, were planted in the wetland (Photo 4). The contractor installed the species of plants, numbers and sizes as required in the mitigation plan. Two exceptions were made: big leaf maples were switched out for similarly sized aspen, and most of the Sitka spruce were switched out for similarly sized Western red cedar. This was due to the lack of availability of big leaf maple at this time of year in the requested size and the lack of quality of the Sitka spruce stock. Conclusions According to Justin Lagers of American Classic Homes, the buffer area adjacent to the vault construction area has not been planted due to the need to move heavy machinery in the area to complete the vault installation and the connection of the drainage pipe. The buffer area associated with the existing northern wetland has not been replanted because it must be filled and regraded to match the adjacent developed elevations. Mr. Lagers has said that these areas will be planted as soon as the vault is completed and the cleared buffer area has been graded. He estimates replanting will occur within a month. The utility corridor needs additional plantings through the middle of the corridor. It appears that this area was not planted because the contractor who installed the plantings may have thought access was required to the clean-out pipe at the end of the corridor. The incorrectly located shrubs will need to be planted in the correct locations. Ed Sewall has said he will flag the ones to be moved and contact the contractor to do so. The replacement of big leaf maple with aspen and Sitka spruce with Western red cedar is acceptable. However, cedar are sensitive to transplanting especially at the larger size of 4-5 feet. Irrigation throughout the summer will help. Overall, the installed plantings look good. If the incorrectly located shrubs are relocated, additional plants are planted in the utility corridor, the buffer area adjacent to the vault is planted after the vault is completed, and the northern portion of buffer is replanted after it is graded, the installation will closely match what is required in the mitigation plan .

Ed Sewall, Sewall Wetland Consulting Inc, Vanessa Dolbee City of Renton Renton City Hall -6th Floor 1055 South Grady Way Renton, WA 98057 June 13, 2014 RE: Second Site Visit, Fieldbrook Commons A second site visit was conducted on June 9, 2014 to inspect final grading. I was met on site by Ed Sewall of Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. Findings The wetland was graded as shown in the compensatory mitigation plan by Ed Sewall. Surveyed elevation markers matched the planned elevations of the created wetland plan closely for the most part (See Figures 1-2). A small berm was incorrectly created around Wetland C, which had previously been cleared contrary to plan (See Figure 3). Other requirements of the mitigation plan that have been completed include placing large woody debris in the created wetland and the southern portion of the trail with the looped end has been cleared and graded correctly to approximately 4 feet in width. Due to the accidental clearing of Wetland C, the clearing of the northern portion of buffer between the wetland and silt fence, and the planned clearing of the western portion of the buffer between the wetland and the underground vault, a revised mitigation plan is needed to reflect additional replanting requirements. Silt fencing has been placed along the northern clearing limits of the site only, but not the eastern portion. Conclusions The mitigation plan was revised on June 9, 2014, by Ed Sewall to reflect required repainting in all the additionally cleared areas (see enclosed). In addition Ed Sewall confirmed on the afternoon of June 9, 2014 that the berm around Wetland Chad been corrected (See Figure 4). The third and final site visit is scheduled for Wednesday, June 18 when all plantings except those adjacent to the vault will have been completed.

I was met on site by Ed Sewall of Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. Findings Clearing had already occurred and was well under way at the time of the initial site visit. Wetland C, adjacent buffer north of Wetland C, and buffer to the west of the proposed created wetland was cleared. Specific trees and tree groupings have been protected by fencing in the buffer area. See enclosed site map indicating already cleared areas. Silt fencing has been partially placed along the northern clearing limits of the site. See enclosed site map indicating placed silt fencing. Wetland A is clearly marked with flagging. The edge of the proposed created wetland is flagged. The southern edge of the trail, north of Wetland C is flagged. Conclusions The areas that were accidentally cleared will need to be replanted and temporary erosion control applied. Currently there is no replanting plan for these areas. The silt fencing should be completed before grading occurs. Nikolina Yonkow 1539 NE 94,h Street Seattle, WA 98115 nyonkow@hotmail.com (206)604-82 74 Enclosures: Site Map Photos c.

Mrs. Dolbee, I was copied on the letter from Nikolina Yonkow to yourself regarding her third site visit to the Fieldbrook Commons wetland mitigation area on June 18th, 2014. I wanted to provide an update as to the punch list items and provide a clarification to a statement she included in her conclusion section. Ed Sewell flagged approximately 32 twinberry, dogwood and willow plants that need to be moved from the buffer area to the wetland creation area. He also flagged 28 hazelnut and snowberry plants that need to be moved from the wetland creation area out to the buffer area. That work is scheduled for Friday the 20th along with the addition of 14 shrubs consisting of a mix of indian plum, snowberry and hazelnut shrubs. These shrubs are in addition to the plants called out on the planting schedule and are being placed over the top of the storm outfall pipe run from CB 31 to CB 32. The landscaper thought perhaps the trial might be extended down this area in the future for maintenance of the outfall clean out. Please note we have also installed silt fence and temporary chain link fencing to protect the new creation area. Lastly, the balance of the plant material which is to be installed in the remaining buffer areas is already on site and is being stored and watered until such time as it can be installed. The remaining buffer areas cannot be planted at this time due the future installation of the dispersal trenches to the south and north of the vault which convey clean runoff from buildings Land K & H. These dispersal trenches can only be installed after the vault is complete, the backfill to the north and south of the vault which supports the roadway is complete and the conveyance system into and out of the vault is also completed as the dispersal trenches Avana Trails, LLC Business Office 9675 SE 36'" Street, Suite 105 Mercer Island, WA 98040 P: (206) 588-1147 F: (206) 588-0954 conveyance lines cross over the top of the storm, water and other utilities. In short these trenches and the buffer plantings cannot be completed until the majority of the eastern half of the site's infrastructure is complete. This work will likely take longer than the month I quoted Mrs. Yonkow in our meeting. Due the large fills the need to bring the balance of the site to its finished grades, the bulk of which fill material is generated from the Wetland D area and its buffer, and the need to continue with infrastructure installation, we respectfully ask for the City's approval to commence the final clearing of balance of the wetland areas. 1. believe after Friday's punch list items are complete we will be in full compliance with the condition to finish the wetland creation area before commencing any additional fills. We would expect to have Mrs. Yonkow back to perform a final site inspection once the balance of the temporary buffer impact plantings are complete.

Henning; Thomas Main; Nickky Yonkow (nyonkow@hotmail.com) Approval of wetland filling/clearing Justin, Thank you for the documents you submitted to the City on June 25, 2014. These included the following: 1. An estimate for the remaining wetland buffer plantings and fencing and a surety device for 150% the cost of the installation of these required items for $24,682.68. 2. An updated wetland mitigation planting plat (including a tree replacement plan). 3. A tree retention plan identifying the "over cleared" trees and the replacement calculations for 18 caliper inches and the associated $1,200.00 fee. I have reviewed the submitted items and have determined these are approvable and the three wetlands identified to be filled, Wetlands D, E and F may be cleared at this time. However, prior to finalizing the construction for the subject project the following items remain to be completed (additional items may be required as a part of the FPUD the list below is limited to the over clearing and wetland monitoring for the site): 1. A final inspection shall be completed by Niki Vonkow verifying the buffer plantings have been corrected as stated in the Third Site Visit letter dated June 18, 2014 along with the replacement tree plantings and all other plantings shown in the updated mitigation plan. A scope change may be needed to Niki's Vonkow's contract which would add additional cost to the original estimate. 2. An estimate identifying the cost of the required maintenance and monitoring for the site and the associated surety device for maintenance and monitoring for the wetland impacts based on the approved final wetland mitigation plan. 3. Potently additional wetland mitigation based on coordination with the CORPS. Thank you for quickly complying with the request for additional information and I look forward to the final approved wetland planting letter from Niki Vonkow.

Henning; Thomas Main Subject: RE: Response/ Clarification Letter Justin, At this time I am working out the necessary mitigation requirements for the over clearing and grading of wetland C. I have not yet herd back from Suzanne at the CORPS. It is my goal for the City and the CORPS to be on the same page when it come to the required mitigating for the additional impacts to the critical areas on the subject site. With that said, in order to move forward at this time I will at minimum need the following items: 1) A surety device for the portion of the buffer that is not yet planted to ensure the work is accomplished following the filling of the three wetlands. This should be 150% the cost of the plantings and the installation (labor). This can be provided in the following formats: a. Cash; b. Letter of credit; c. Set aside letter; provided, that the funds cannot be withdrawn, spent, or committed to any third party; or d. Savings account assigned to the City and blocked as to withdrawal by the secured party without the City's approval. 2) A final updated mitigation plan from Ed. (which I believe he is working on sending over). 3) An updated tree retention calculation worksheet identifying replacement trees for the additional cleared trees beyond the original approval. The tree retention worksheet shall reflect the "over cleared area" and shall included a replacement ratio of 18 caliper inches per tree instead of the typical 12 in the worksheet (See RMC 4-4-130J Violations and Penalties). All replacement trees shall be a minimum of 2" in caliper. Please identify if the wetland mitigation plan is intended to be used for the tree replacement plan. If not, please provide a separate tree replacement planting plan. In addition, pursuant to RMC 1-3-2P the minimum penalty for removal of trees is $100 per tree. Please identify the number of trees removed over the approved tree retention plan and pay the associated fee (I will be reviewing the plan for a final number of trees but have not completed this as of the date of this e-mail). Once I have received and approved the above items 1 -3: the wetlands on site may be cleared and filled. Prior to finalizing the construction permit we will need a final letter from Niki approving the fully completed wetland creation and buffer plantings. In addition to a maintenance and monitoring surety device for the 10 year maintenance and monitoring requirement. And potently additional wetland mitigation based on coordination with the CORPS. Please let me know if you have questions about the above requirements.

Flatley Tuesday, May 24, 2016 4:02 PM Vanessa Dolbee RE: Woodpecker holes @ save trees Follow up Completed The trees in question are trees that appear to have existed on the site prior to development. They appear to have suffered construction damage, possibly due to a lack of tree protection. The trees are declining to the point where the Douglas fir is 100% dead and the western redcedar is in severe decline. When trees are under stress from construction damage, they become more susceptible to insect and disease than healthy trees. The bird pecking is a symptom of a weakened condition in the trees due to the presence of insects making a tasty lunch for the birds that drill into the tree to extract the bugs. Both trees should now be removed. Because of an over-abundance of trees in this planting, I recommend the trees be replaced in either a different site location. If other tree planting on the is as adequate as observed, a fee-in-lieu payment can offset the replacement requirements. I also observed over-planting of street trees at this site and planting street trees too close to other improvements such as street lights. The street trees planted are those that develop into large trees and should have been spaced a minimum distance of 50 feet on-center (per City Code), 30 feet from street lights and perhaps other spacing issues at this site that I did not specifically look for such as blocking stop signs or proximity to fire hydrants, etc. Terry Flatley, Certified Arborist Municipal Specialist Urban Forestry and Natural Resources Manager City of Renton 1055 South Grady Way Renton, WA 98058 425-430-6601 -----Original Message----- From: Vanessa Dolbee Sent: Tuesday, May 24, 2016 2:55 PM To: Terrence J.

Based on Terry's assessment, these trees are dyeing due to construction damage and not due to natural causes because of the woodpeckers. You can see in Terry's analysis in the attached e-mail that when trees are under stress from construction damage they become more susceptible to insect and disease. The bird pecking is a symptom of a weakened condition of the trees due to the presence of insets, which is a result of construction. The area of the park had three trees identified to be saved: 1) tree #1815, 14.10 inches, 2) tree #1787, 10.8 inches, and 3) tree#? (the plan sheet is difficult to read here), 17.89 inches. Based on the field conclusions, that the trees death is due to construction impacts as these trees were to be protected tree as approved part of the PUD, the removal will need to be assessed as a violation. It is my assumption the same would have applied to the first tree removed #1815 as well, however this was not confirmed by Terry prior to removal. Replacement of trees removed under the violation standards require replacement at a one-to-one ratio for caliper inches. Based on the two remaining trees there is a total of 25 caliper inches of replacement required. You will also note in the attached e-mail Terry believe the area is already over planted with trees and does not recommend replacement in the same location. Considering a number of the evergreen trees that were planted have died; it seems reasonable to replant the area with more spacing and the same number of tree already planted. Due to the lack of space for new trees on the project site, the replacement caliper inches would need to be made up using the City's fee-in- lieu option. We charge $215.00 per caliper inch for a total of $5,375.00 ($215 x 25 caliper inches= $5,375) fee-in-lieu. Please feel free to give me a call if you would like to discuss the above comments.

I met with the landscaper and dug holes to verify that the drip lines are providing adequate irrigation which they are. The save tree's are dying because they have hundreds of tiny holes from woodpeckers. The last save tree will die too because it also has hundreds of holes. The little tree's that died have no real explanation except maybe shock or drowning in the winter. I was planted too deep. I'll text some pictures of the woodpecker holes to your email. 1 So I would like to get this over with and cut down both tree's and replace them. Once the woodpeckers start this process it's just a matter of time. So we would like to plant 6 fur tree's that are 10-12'. I'll have the landscapers cut down the tree's, clean up the mess and re-plant. What do you think? Thanks, John Loori Construction Superintendent Avana Trails, LLC.

The eastern buffer area adjacent to the area of vault · construction. 2. The buffer of' the existing northern wetland. 3. The center of the utility corridor. 4. These areas were not planted last spring due to continuing work on the adjacent vault and, along the utility corridor, to contractor error. I was met on site by Ed Sewall of Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. · Findings The three areas listed above are now well planted with appropriate upland plants (See photo nos. 3). Although the utility corridor has been replanted with appropriate shrubs, the eastern portion of the utility corridor, east of the pipe access structure has standing and flowing water (See photo no. 4). It is unknown what the origin of the water is. but it is possible it could be an overflow or leak from the pipe. If it remains inundated through the spring and summer it may be too wet for the plants installed in the eastern portion of the utility corridor. Ed Sewall informed me that an over abundance of water in the wetland was a problem during heavy rain events through the winter. As a result some plants were switched out for more appropriate species. During the site visit most of the plantings looked like they were doing fairly well, particularly the sedges and the ash. Overall the trees and shrubs look good, however, it will become more clear in the spring when they leaf out as to how they are doing. The exception were 4-5 of the larger cedars that looked stressed. Conclusions Overall the plantings in the wetland and the buffer and utility corridor look good. However, the following should be noted: • The stressed cedars in the wetland should be monitored through out the summer as they may still recover. Cedar are sensitive to transplanting especially at the larger size of 4-5 feet and their stress may be due to this solely. • The success of deciduous shrubs and trees in the wetland can be better monitored during the growing season as their ability to survive a wetter environment will be more obvious when they leaf out. • The eastern portion of the utility corridor should be checked for a pipe leak or other reason why there is standing and flowing water present. Likely the inundation is a temporary condition.and if corrected the shrubs that were planted will survive.

As discussed, the Fire Marshall asked us to stipe out a previously approved parking stall in Phase 2 of our project during his walk-though inspection of the Phase 3 improvements due to the proximity of a fire hydrant. We have identified an area which could be converted from lawn to a parking space with relative ease with no.net loss in landscape area. To minimize the disturbance to the established landscaped area we would also need to convert some adjacent stalls to compact width and restripe them however they would still have normal depth and leave us far under the normal/ compact stall ratio for the project. For the stall which was removed by the hydrant we would propose removing the existing curb and re-pouring a new curb to form a continuous planter island as shown in our exhibit and then plant lawn and approximately 10 other low growing shrubs, in keeping with the plant palate in that part of the project, since I don't believe we can place a street tree in that area due to a possible obstruction to the hydrant. Thank you for your consideration of our request and I look forward to your feedback. 9~-7' Justin Lagers Senior Director of Land Acquisitions and Development Avana Trails, LLC Business Office 9675 SE 36" Street, Suite 105 Mercer Island, WA 98040 P: (206) 588-1147 F: (206) 588-0954 Exterior Architectural Finish Specifications Provide submittals of all finishes for designers' approval prior to installation. .
