EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
' A field assessment for the presence and extent of wetlands on the Orillia Parcel #14 Site
has been conducted by David Evans and Associates, Inc. (DEA). The approximately 31-acre
site is located immediately north of Southwest 33rd Street and west of Oakesdale Avenue
in the City of Renton, Washington. This site was investigated in September and October,
' 1991.
The site is a composite of recently disturbed and relatively undisturbed areas. The more
recently disturbed areas were either cleared or cleared and filled. Either perennial grasses
and forbs or vines dominate these areas. The relatively undisturbed areas are dominated
' either by stands of young to moderately mature cottonwoods and willows, by other shrubs,
or by perennial grasses and forbs. Approximately a third of the site was legally filled about
' 20 years ago. The topography is generally flat, with the filled areas being somewhat
elevated in relation to the undisturbed areas; one area, about an acre in size, has a 4-foot
' high mound of fill material. A 6-foot wide drainage channel runs north-south along the
western boundary of the site.
The wetland delineation used the 1987 US Army Corps of Engineers Triple Parameter
methodology, and resulted in the identification of 3 wetlands located on-site. Total area of
' wetlands identified within the boundaries of the site is 18.78 acres. The wetlands range
from 0.14 to 17.91 acres in size. Two of the identified wetlands would be classified
' according to the US Fish and Wildlife Service system as palustrine, scrub-shrub wetlands.
The remaining wetland, the largest on the site, would be classified as a mosaic of palustrine
' wetland classes: including emergent marsh, scrub-shrub, and forested. All three wetlands
are seasonally flooded.
Federal, state, and local agencies regulate activities in wetlands. This report can be used
' by these agencies to determine permit requirements associated with development plans.

INTRODUCTION
' On behalf of Glacier Park Company, David Evans and Associates, Inc. (DEA) conducted
a wetland investigation of the Orillia Parcel #14 Site. Parcel #14 is located north of
' Southwest 33rd Street and west of Oakesdale Avenue Southwest in Renton, Washington
(Sec. 25, R 4 E, T 23 N, W. M.) (Figure 1).
' The 30.97-acre site is zoned for industrial use. It is bordered by developed
commercial/industrial lands along the eastern half of the southern boundary. Undeveloped
' commercial/industrial lands lie adjacent to the western half of the southern boundary and
to the eastern and western boundaries. The lands adjacent to the north and to the northeast
' are rural, forested and undeveloped and contain protected wetlands. The site consists of
revegetated fill material placed approximately 20 years ago, as well as of undisturbed
' grassland, shrubland, and woodland areas. Because the site is situated in the Green River
floodplain, there is a need for a site investigation to determine the presence and extent of
wetlands.
' Pursuant to the Clean Water Act, and through the Section 404 permitting process, the US
Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) has been given the responsibility and authority to regulate
the discharge of dredged and fill materials into waters and adjacent wetlands of the United
States. The Corps defines wetlands as "those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface
or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal
' circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil
conditions." Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas.

INSET MAP
PURPOSE
The purposes of this study were to determine the presence and extent of wetlands on Parcel
#14, and to evaluate the functional values of any wetlands present. This report may be used
' by local, state and federal agencies to determine any permit requirements associated with
development plans.
METHODOLOGY
The analysis of wetlands conducted on this site was based on the methodology developed
' by the Corps (1987), commonly referred to as the Triple Parameter Method, for
implementation of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The Triple Parameter Method
requires that evidence of three parameters (a dominance of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric
soils, and wetland hydrology) be present for a wetland determination. Two levels of
information have been gathered for this analysis. These include: (1) preliminary site
research, and (2) a site investigation for the presence of wetlands. The methodologies used
' in this approach are described below.
' Preliminary Research
Review of existing information was conducted to develop background knowledge of physical
features and to identify the potential for wetland occurrence on the site. Information
related to topography, drainage, and water features was obtained from these information
' sources. The following resource documents were available for a preliminary review of site
conditions:
• Aerial photographs, black-and-white (March 1985) and color infrared (July 1988) at
one inch = 400 feet scale and color infrared (January 1991) at one inch = 200 feet
scale, with natural color oblique views;
• USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS) 1973, Soil Survey of the King County Area,
Renton Quadrangle;
' • USDI Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Maps
(1987);
' • USGS Geological Topographic Survey 1979, Renton Quadrangle;

' Site Investigation
' Vegetation
Representative sample plots were located in identified wetland plant communities and in
the adjacent upland areas. Data plots, with a radius of 11.8 feet (0.01-acre), were
' established in areas of homogeneous vegetation. Areas where more than 50% of the
dominant species present are hydrophytes (plant species adapted to saturated conditions)
were generally considered to be inside the wetland boundary, unless clear evidence of the
absence of one or more of the other parameters was established. As per the methodology,
hydrophytic vegetation was determined to be present if more than 50% of the dominant
plant species had an indicator status of facultative, facultative wetland, or obligate wetland.
These and other plant indicator status definitions are presented in Appendix A. In addition,
' all plant species observed on the site were identified. Appendix B lists these species and
their wetland indicator status (Reed 1988).
' Soils
iHydric soils are those that are saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing
season to develop anaerobic conditions that favor the growth and regeneration of
hydrophytic vegetation. Soils on this site consist of either fill or undisturbed native material.
Although the Corps Triple Parameter Methodology does not require that soils be addressed
twhen vegetation is non-hydrophytic, soil pits were dug in each data plot to a minimum depth
of 12 inches. Soil information was collected on hue, value, chroma, texture, horizon
' thickness, and mottling, when present. The Corps methodology requires that the soil
immediately below the A horizon or at a 10-inch depth exhibit hydric characteristics (i.e.,
' a histic epipedon in organic soils, or a chroma of 1 with or without mottling or of 2 with
mottling in mineral soils). Other hydric soil indicators include evidence of ponding or
inundation.
Hydrology
Wetland hydrologic indicators included direct observation of inundation or soil saturation,
' clear evidence of areas that have ponded in the past, oxidized root zones, water-borne
sediment deposits, water-stained leaves, and aerial photograph analysis.
' 4
Wetland Determination
' Analysis of all three parameters was conducted for the wetland determination. When one
or more of the parameters were absent, the area was determined to be non-wetland. This
' is in accordance with the 1987 Corps methodology. Wetlands were flagged by DEA
biologists and surveyed by Bush, Roed and Hitchings, Inc., Seattle, and the wetland areas
calculated by CAD.
Functional Value Assessment
Wetlands play important roles that provide valuable benefits to society. Wetland habitat
' and functional values are numerous and varied and have been described by several wetland
investigators (WDOE 1988, Adamus et al. 1987, Reppert et al. 1979, Mitsch and Gosselink
1986). Wetlands often play dynamic roles in many ecosystems by performing functions of
intrinsic ecological and social value (Table 1). Important wetland functions include water
' quality protection, storm and flood flow alteration and storage, groundwater exchange, and
biological support.
Each wetland is rated low, moderate, or high for each functional value. Based on these
ratings the wetland was then given an overall low, moderate, or high rating by totalling the
' number of qualities falling within each of these ratings (Table 1). The criteria are
guidelines for determining the degree to which wetlands perform these functions and are
not to override sound professional judgement and site-specific evaluations.

Evaluation of the functions of the site wetlands in their present configuration allows for the
assessment of any impacts that may ensue from the proposed development. The baseline
and impact evaluations are used to create a mitigation plan that provides for the
replacement of any affected wetland area's functions and values.
Water Quality Protection
One important value of wetlands is their ability to help maintain and improve the water
quality of rivers, lakes, and other water bodies. Wetlands can function to naturally purify
water by removing organic and mineral particulate matter. Large, densely vegetated
' wetlands can improve the processes of sediment and toxicant retention, ion exchange,
chemical adsorption, and algal and bacterial degradation of pollutants, and may also
6
' moderate the effects of acid precipitation. Due to their position between upland and deep
water, wetlands can intercept surface water runoff from land before it reaches open water.
They also can help filter nutrients, waste, and sediment from flood waters (EPA 1988). Key
wetland predictors used to assess the level of water quality improvement are wetland type,
its areal extent, vegetation density and geographic factors of its location (Reppert et al.
1979).
Storm- and Flood-Water Control
' Wetlands modify the effects of storm and flood waters by reducing floodpeaks,
desynchronizing the floodpeaks of the various streams in a single watershed,providing flood
' water storage, slowing flood waters, and increasing duration of flow. Any depression in the
landscape has the potential to store water and thereby to play a role in flood control. In
' general, wetlands not filled with water to capacity will perform a flood control function.
Wetland topography and vegetation dissipate the energy and reduce the velocity of flood
' waters by providing surface roughness. The storage capacity and the surface roughness of
the wetlands are paramount in providing this wetland function (Reppert et al. 1979, Sather
and Smith 1984). In watersheds where wetlands have been lost, flood peaks may increase
' by as much as 80% (Adamus and Stockwell 1983).
Groundwater Exchange
Groundwater exchange includes both recharge and discharge. These processes are not
necessarily mutually exclusive as they are often dictated by seasonal conditions. During dry
periods, surface water will be absorbed into the ground and recharge may occur if the
geomorphic conditions are suitable. As precipitation intensity increases during winter
months and the water tables are replenished,water may discharge from a site. Groundwater
exchange is a site-specific phenomena, which is dependent on wetland location in the
watershed, soil permeability and drainage, and the hydrologic regime.
Natural Biological Support
Attributes of this function are wildlife habitat, food chain production, and the potential for
environmental studies, sanctuaries, and refuges. General habitat criteria used to assess the
biological value are structural diversity of communities and species, diversity of adjacent
upland areas, and the presence of biological support for game, commercial, or unique
' species.
7
' INVESTIGATION FINDINGS
' Field investigations for this study were conducted during September and October 1991. A
DEA biologist located 24 data plots on the site.
' Vegetation
' The National Wetland Inventory (1987) map identifies one wetland, a palustrine,
scrub-shrub, seasonally flooded community, on site (Figure 2). This area is included in one
of the delineated wetlands (Wetland M). The on-site vegetation can be classified into five
plant communities. The first two can be characterized as upland community types, the last
three, as wetland types. These are described as follows:
' Dry Meadow Community
' Represented by plots 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 24 (Appendix C), this community
type is somewhat variable in species composition. It almost always contains creeping
' bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) and English plantain (Plantago lanceolata), and may contain
common tansy (Tanacetum vulgare), common velvetgrass (Holcus lanatus), hairy cats-ear
(Hypochoeris radicata), soft chess (Bromus mollis), and Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense).
This community type is considered non-hydrophytic despite the fact that creeping bentgrass
is a facultative species because the majority of the dominants and associated species are
upland and facultative upland species.
' Dry Shrubland Community
' This community type is best represented by Data Plot 23, although it is also a minor
component of some of the dry meadow plots (Data Plots 16, 17, and 21). Himalayan
blackberry (Rubus discolor) is the dominant species here, with Scot's broom (Cytisus
scoparius) as a frequent co-dominant. On the site, Himalayan blackberry often forms dense
thickets by overgrowing other vegetation, eventually forming impenetrable, nearly pure
stands which can attain 15-foot heights. Typically the herbaceous stratum, when present, is
dominated by the same species that occur in the dry meadow community. However,wetland
' herbaceous and woody vegetation is also being overgrown in many instances, especially
along the periphery of the wetlands.

' Wet Meadow Community
This community type, often characterized by nearly pure stands of reed canarygrass (Phalaris
arundinacea), is represented by Data Plot 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8. More disturbed areas within this
community type exhibit a species complement similar to that of the dry meadow (Data Plots
2 and 8) and dry shrubland (Data Plot 7) communities. These transitional plots are usually
situated in close proximity to more typical wetland vegetation and were dominated by
facultative plant species, namely, creeping bentgrass and common velvetgrass.
Wet Scrub-Shrub Community
This community type is best represented by Data Plots 11, 12, 13, and 14. The vegetation
is dominated by shrubs and small or young trees: willows (Salix spp.), western crabapple
(Malus f isca), red-osier dogwood (Comus stolonifera), Douglas spirea (Spirea douglasii), and
black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera). The herbaceous layer is typically sparse. Creeping
bentgrass, creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens), soft rush (Juncus effusus), and common
horsetail (Equisetum arvense) are the dominants.
Wet Forest Community
This community type is a more mature counterpart of the wet scrub-shrub community. Data
Plots 1, 5, 6, 9, and 10 are examples of this type. The tree stratum, dominated by mature
black cottonwood, is more pronounced. The species composition of the herbaceous and
shrub strata is similar to the wet scrub-shrub community.
Soils
Approximately a third of the site had been either cleared or cleared and filled with a gravel
and coarse sand mixture to a 12- to 48-inch depth. A 4-foot high mound of fill material
' covers a portion (approximately 1 acre) of the site. Data Plots 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, and
24 are examples of this fill material. The remainder of the site is characterized by one of
three soil types (Figure 3).

Puget Silty Clay Loam
This hydric soil occurs on less than one percent slopes. The A horizon ranges from silty clay
loam to silt loam. The B horizon is typically silty clay loam stratified with silt loam, silty
clay, and fine sand. Inclusions of Woodinville and Snohomish soils occur. Only a small area
of this map unit occurred on site along the western edge. No pits were dug in this soil type.
Puyallup Fine Sandy Loam
' This non-hydric soil is made up of well-drained material that formed in alluvium, under
grass, hardwoods, and conifers. These soils are on the natural terraces adjacent to streams
in the river valleys. Slopes are 0 to 2 percent. The A horizon ranges from fine sandy loam
to very fine sandy loam and silt loam. The upper part of the C horizon is usually very fine
sandy loam, slightly hard, with a platy structure. Commonly layers of sand, fine sand, and
loamy fine sand occur in the lower part of the C horizon. Inclusions of non-hydric Briscot,
Newberg, Nooksack, Oridia, and Renton soils or of hydric Woodinville and Puget soils can
occur. The eastern two-thirds of the site were mapped in the King County Soil Survey as
this soil type.
Plots 6 through 14 and 23 are representative of this mapping unit. The upper horizon soils
' were generally sandy or gravelly sandy loams from very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) to
dark brown (10YR 3/3) or dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2). The lower horizons were
usually characterized by a hard layer of very fine sandy loam, platy in structure, and dark
gray (10YR 4/1) in color, with distinct, yellowish brown (10YR 5/6) mottles. Mottling was
found occasionally in the upper horizon also. Depth to the hard pan varied between 5 and
10 inches.
Woodinville Silt Loam
' This is a hydric soil made up of nearly level and gently undulating, poorly drained material
that formed in grass and sedges, in alluvium, on stream bottoms. Slopes are 0 to 2 percent.
Both the A and B horizons range from a silt loam to a silty clay loam. In places there are
thin lenses of very fine sandy loam and loamy fine sand or of peat. Inclusions of Puget,
' Snohomish, Oridia, Briscot, Puyallup, Newberg and Nooksack non-hydric soils can occur.
12
' Plots 1 through 5, 17, and 19 appear to represent this mapping unit or some of its inclusions.
The upper horizon soils were typically sandy loams, loams or silt loams, from very dark
grayish brown (10YR 3/2) to dark brown (10YR 3/3) or dark grayish brown (10YR 4/2).
The lower horizons were generally characterized by a hard layer of silt loam, platy in
' structure, and dark gray (10YR 4/1) in color, with distinct, yellowish brown (10YR 5/6)
mottles. Occasionally a lens of dark brown (10YR 3/3), very fine sandy loam was found
immediately above or below this hard pan. Depth to the hard pan ranged from 3 to 14
inches.
' Hydrology
Evidence of a relict stream channel, with embankments, was found in the central portion
of the site. This probably corresponds to the NWI-mapped wetland. Surface flow to this
channel has been interrupted by fill activities and by a north-south drainage ditch located
just inside the western boundary of the site. Stagnant water was observed in the drainage
ditch, which appears to divert water away from the relict stream channel. Another small
drainage way was located along the northeast border of the site. This appeared to drain
surface runoff toward the wetland area north of the site. No water was observed in this
drainage.
Those portions of the site that had been filled were slightly elevated in relation to the
undisturbed areas on the site, where the wetlands were typically found. Evidence of
seasonal inundation or ponding was observed by the water-stained leaves that covered the
wetland surfaces. Oxidized root channels were also consistently observed in the profiles of
the native, undisturbed soils marked by a fine sand or silt hard pan.
' WETLAND DETERMINATION
' As described in the methodology, three wetland parameters must be evaluated for positive
wetland identification. Criteria established by the Corps typically require that hydrology,
hydrophytic vegetation, and hydric soils all be present for a positive wetland determination.
Table 2 presents a summary of the three parameters used to make the wetland
determinations.
Based on a dominance of hydrophytes, supporting hydric soils data, and evidence of positive
' wetland hydrology, three wetlands (J, I., and M) were identified on the site (Figure 4). The

FUNCTIONAL VALUE ASSESSMENT
' All three wetlands were evaluated for five functions: storm water and floodwater control,
water quality improvement,groundwater recharge,hydrologic support,and biological habitat
support. Each wetland was rated low, moderate, or high for each of these functions.
15
' Storm Water and Floodwater Control
All three wetlands, J, L and M, have a seasonal hydroperiod and over 30% woody plant
cover, which is highly valuable in impeding surface sheetflow. All three wetlands are in the
vicinity of rapidly developing commercial/industrial areas. The value of Wetlands J and L,
however, are limited by their relatively small size. Such is not the case with the much larger
Wetland M. Only Wetland M has a discernible drainage corridor along its western edge;
although most of this wetland's drainage is constrained. Overall, Wetlands J and L are of
low-to-moderate value for storm water and floodwater control, while wetland M has a
moderate-to-high value for this function.
Water Quality Improvement
All three on-site wetlands have more than 80%vegetative cover and are adjacent to limited
non-point sources of pollutants. The effectiveness of Wetlands J and L is limited by their
small size. These two wetlands are of low value for water quality improvement, while
Wetland M would have a moderate value in this function.
Groundwater Recharge
These wetlands are underlain by slowly permeable consolidated till. The relatively small
size and somewhat isolated nature of Wetlands J and L also limit their groundwater
recharge value. All three wetlands appear to be temporarily or seasonally saturated or
inundated. Wetlands J and L are of low value for groundwater recharge; Wetland M has
a low-to-moderate value in this function.
Hydrologic Support
None of the wetlands were inundated or saturated during the field visit, but all three
wetlands exhibited indications of extended periods of ponding. These wetlands appear to
maintain a seasonal hydrology. Wetlands J and L are in somewhat isolated depressions,
which are of low value for hydrologic support. Wetland M is connected with an open
drainage system, and thus earns a moderate rating for this function.
16
1
' Natural Biological Support
Wetland M has moderate species and structural diversity. Wetlands J and L have
low-to-moderate species and structural diversity. There were no unique or water-dependent
species observed at this time of year. Few indicators of animals, other than various
songbirds were observed during the field visit. Due to their limited diversity and small size,
Wetlands J and L are of low biological support value,while Wetland M is of moderate value
in this function.
Considered individually, Wetlands J and L receive a low overall functional value rating.
Functional values of hydrologic support,stormwater and floodwater control and groundwater
recharge are all rated low due to the wetlands' isolated positions and limited sizes. Water
quality and biologic support functions are also rated low due to these wetlands' small sizes.
Wetland M is generally seen as having a moderate value in all wetland functions because
of its larger size, greater species and structural diversity, and open drainage system.
REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS
Pursuant to the Clean Water Act, and through the Section 404 permitting process, the US
Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) has been given the responsibility and authority to regulate
the discharge of dredged and fill materials into waters of the United States including
' wetlands. The Corps (Federal Register, 1982) and the Environmental Protection Agency
(Federal Register, 1980) jointly define wetlands as "those areas that are inundated or
' saturated by surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that
under nonnal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in
saturated soil conditions." Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar
areas. Nationwide Permit 26 under Section 404 allows filling less than one acre of isolated
wetlands or adjacent wetlands located above the headwaters (defined as an average annual
' flow of 5 cfs). The Corps will be contacted to verify that Nationwide Permit 26 is applicable
and that wetlands occupy less than one acre. Because of the proximity of the site's wetlands
to other wetlands in the area and to Springbrook Creek, the Corps may need to be
contacted for a determination on the wetlands' adjacency to navigable waters. Under
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, any disturbance of wetlands determined to be adjacent
to navigable waters under the Corps' jurisdiction would require an Individual Permit.
17
r
rThe State Environmental Protection Act (SEPA) is implemented by local agencies and
provides a process to analyze the environmental impacts of development. During SEPA
r environmental review, various agencies have the opportunity to review and comment on the
proposed development plans. Shoreline considerations would fall into this process.
rThe wetlands on this site do not appear to be within the jurisdiction of Washington State's
Shoreline Management Act (SMA). The drainage ditch along the western edge of the site
rappears to be connected to an open water wetland to the southeast of the site and from
there to Springbrook Creek below that portion of the creek under the SMA's jurisdiction.
' The wetlands on site also do not lie within the 100-year floodplain of Spring Creek.
Nevertheless Washington State's Department of Ecology(WDOE) may or may not find that
the wetlands on Parcel #14 influence Springbrook Creek through such wetland functions as
floodwater control, water purification through biofiltration, and hydrologic and biologic
r support. During SEPA review, the City of Renton may solicit input from the WDOE on
development plans for the site.
