Development Services Recommendation: Approve The Development Services Report was received by the Examiner on March 31, 2009. After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining available information on file with the application, field checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: MINUTES The following minutes are a summary of the April 7, 2009 hearing. The legal record is recorded on CD. The hearing opened on Tuesday, April 7, 2009, at 9:01 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. The following exhibits were entered into the record: Exhibit No. I: Yellow file containing the original Exhibit No. 2: Vicinity Map application, proof of posting, proof of publication and other documentation pertinent to this reauest. Exhibit No. 3: Site Plan Exhibit Na. 4: Pier and Boatlift Elevations Exhibit No. 5: Zoning Map Exhibit No. 6: City of Renton Determination of Non- Si,mificance -Mitigated and Mitigation Measures Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 2 Exhibit No. 7: Shoreline Substantial Development Permit Exhibit No. 8: E-mail from Muckleshoot Indian Tribe reauestin!! specific planting alon!! the shoreline. The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Gerald Wasser, Associate Planner, Community and Economic Development, City of Renton, 1055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The property is located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The proposed project is a 65-foot fully grated pier with an associated free-standing boatlift, which would be of marine grade aluminum. It is pre-manufactured, both the boatlift and the pier would be assembled and constructed on the water side of the property with the use of barge- mounted equipment. Eight 8-inch diameter piles would be driven by a drop hammer system located on the barge for the pier. The boatlift weighs approximately 500 pounds and would be set directly on the lake bottom on four footpads that are approximately 12" x 18" and would be operated by a hydraulic motor run by a 12 volt solar powered battery. No lights are projected for this facility. Currently there is no pier or boatlift on this property, there are similar facilities in the vicinity. There is a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline and the lakebed consists of sand and gravel. Duration of construction is estimated at 10-15 days and would take place within the construction window established by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16-December 31. The proposed project would not obstruct views from surrounding properties. The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated with one mitigation measure. No appeals were filed. An email was received from the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe asking for placement of fish friendly gravel in front of the bulkhead and the planting of plants like bulrush etc. Since boatlifts are not specifically identified in the Shoreline Master Program, they require a Hearing Examiner decision under the Shoreline Conditional Use. The boatlift is consistent with the five Shoreline Conditional Use Permit criteria. This use is compatible with other permitted uses along this portion of Lake Washington. This use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines. The proposed use is for one watercraft to be maintained at this site. The design is compatible with the surroundings and the City's Master Program. The freestanding residential boatlift would be associated with an existing single family residence and would be located 13-feet from the southerly property line and 9 feet from the northerly property line. The use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Master Program. The City of Renton piers and docks require a five foot side yard setback and cannot exceed 80 feet in length. Gregory Ashley. Ashley Shoreline Design & Permitting, 16412 NE IO"' Place, Bellevue, WA 98008 stated that the US Corps of Engineers, Fisheries and US Wildlife recommend that all boatlifts be placed in deeper than 9- feet of water, this project was designed in order to get the boatlift into just over nine feet of water. In reference to the suggestion that spawning gravel be placed along the bulkhead as well as plant emergent vegetation, due to the depth of the water at the bulkhead which is three and a half feet over the high water mark, most emergent vegetation would not take hold and root in that location due to the wave and wind action that takes place on this site. Spawning gravel tends to move around quite vigorously so it would not stay in place. The only fish that spawn on the beach are sockeye and that is not a sockeye spawning area, other fish will not come in to spawn along that section. Enough gravel could be brought in to make the water shallower, however, the gravel will not stay in place, it will wash away and be gone, some may come back but it would take a large structure to keep the gravel in place. ' I Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 3 The hydraulic fluid used in these lifts is non-toxic and not detrimental to the environment. The pier is fully grated to allow light to pass through the surface. This will help discourage predators from hanging out under the pier and allows salmon to hang out under the pier without the fear of predators. Jerry Brennan, 3405 Lake Washington Blvd., Renton 98056 stated that he lives just south of the site and is in support of the residential docks in the area and believe this dock meets the criteria for the use. Kayren Kittrick, Community and Economic Development stated that she has seen nothing on the documents showing that there is a sanitary sewer line that serves most of these homes. They must do a locate prior to installing any piles. It will be necessary to call before any digging is done in order to protect the sewer line. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:28 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: I. The applicants, Cynthia M. and Alan E. Provost, filed a request for a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit as well as a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit to install a pier and boatlift in Lake Washington. 2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit #I. 3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated (DNS-M). 4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter. 5. There was no opposition from the public regarding the subject proposal. 6. The subject site is located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The subject site is located west of Lake Washington Boulevard on the shoreline of Lake Washington. 7. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of single family uses, but does not mandate such development without consideration of other policies of the Plan. 8. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family-8 dwelling units/acre). 9. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1804 enacted in December 1959. Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page4 IO. The subject site is approximately 4,549 square feet but a portion of the property extends out into the lake. 11. A single family home is located on the eastern, uplands portion of the site. 12. The applicant proposes erecting a new pier and boatlift. The pier is proposed to be 65 feet long and vary from 4 to 8 feet wide. The pier would have a surface area of approximately 315 square feet. It would have a grated deck that allow light to pass making it less likely to harbor salmon predators. The pier would be supported by eight 8-inch piles. 13. The boatlift would be approximately 10 feet square with a surface area of approximately 100 square feet. The boatlift would be freestanding and portable. It would be constructed of marine grade aluminum. 14. All construction would be accomplished from the lake by barge. 15. Code requires a five foot side yard setback from the property line. The pier and boatlift would be located approximately 13 feet from the south property line and approximately 9 feet from the north property line. Code permits docks to extend 80 feet into the lake and the applicant proposes a 65 foot long combination. 16. The work will be done in the time window specified by the state to avoid interfering with salmon activity in the lake. I 7. The hydraulic fluid that will help operate the boatlift is non-toxic and biodegradable so leaks would not create any environmental hazards. 18. The Muckleshoot tribe wants a gravel bottom to allow plants to be established in this area. 19. The applicant's representative noted that in this location, wind and water action would disrupt any bottom materials and hamper plant growth. 20. Lake Washington's shoreline is classified as a Shoreline of Statewide Significance and therefore any development adjacent to it is subject to the City's Shoreline Master Program. This section of the shoreline is designated as an Urban Shoreline. 21. Staff noted that the residential designation of the subject site permits docks associated with single- family uses along this portion of the shoreline. Boatlifts are not a listed use nor are they a prohibited use and, therefore, are subject to a shoreline conditional use review. 22. A Metro sewer line is located in the lake bottom in the vicinity of the subject site. The applicant should take precautions and make sure the location of the line is known when they begin operation. CONCLUSIONS: I. The criteria for approving a Shoreline Conditional Use permit are twofold. There are City criteria and those City criteria require compliance with additional State criteria. Those criteria are as follows: ' Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 5 Renton: Section 4-9-190.I.5: 5. Conditional Use: a. Purpose: Upon proper application, a conditional use permit may be granted. The objective of a conditional use provision is to provide more control and flexibility for implementing the regulations of the Master Program. With provisions to control undesirable effects, the scope of uses can be expanded to include many uses. b. Decision Criteria: Uses classified as conditional uses can be permitted only after consideration and by meeting such performance standards that make the use compatible with other permitted uses within that area. A conditional use permit will be granted subject to each of the following conditions: i. The use must be compatible with other permitted uses within that area. ii. The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines. iii. Design of the site will be compatible with the surroundings and the City's Master Program. iv. The use shall be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Master Program. v. The use meets the conditional use criteria in WAC 173-27-160. Washington State: WAC 173-27-160: Review criteria for conditional use permits. The purpose of a conditional use permit is to provide a system within the master program which allows flexibility in the application of use regulations in a manner consistent with the policies ofRCW 90.58.020. In authorizing a conditional use, special conditions may be attached to the permit by local government or the department to prevent undesirable effects of the proposed use and/or to assure consistency of the project with the act and the local master program. (!) Uses which are classified or set forth in the applicable master program as conditional uses may be authorized provided that the applicant demonstrates all of the following: (a) That the proposed use is consistent with the policies ofRCW 90.58.020 and the master program; (b) That the proposed use will not interfere with the normal public use of public shorelines; (c) That the proposed use of the site and design of the project is compatible with other authorized uses within the area and with uses planned for the area under the comprehensive plan and shoreline master program; Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page6 ( d) That the proposed use will cause no significant adverse effects to the shoreline environment in which it is to be located; and ( e) That the public interest suffers no substantial detrimental effect. (2) In the granting of all conditional use pennits, consideration shall be given to the cumulative impact of additional requests for like actions in the area. For example, if conditional use permits were granted for other developments in the area where similar circumstances exist, the total of the conditional uses shall also remain consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58.020 and shall not produce substantial adverse effects to the shoreline environment. (3) Other uses which are not classified or set forth in the applicable master program may be authorized as conditional uses provided the applicant can demonstrate consistency with the requirements of this section and the requirements for conditional uses contained in the master program. (4) Uses which are specifically prohibited by the master program may not be authorized pursuant to either subsection (I) or (2) of this section. 2. The area is zoned for and developed with single family uses. Many of the properties are served by docks and piers and some properties have boatlifts. The boatlift proposed by the applicant appears to be compatible with the uses located in this area. 3. The proposed boatlift should not interfere with any public use of the shoreline. Docks located both north and south of the proposed dock already extend out into the lake and therefore, an additional pier will not hamper near-shore navigation. This shoreline is privately owned and developed with a single- family home. 4. The lift will be setback from property lines more than required by code and will not create any untoward impacts on adjacent uses or on water-oriented uses. 5. The next series of criteria are contained within the Washington Administrative Code. One of the paramount goals is to protect the ecology of the shoreline. In this case, there should be no change other than some disturbance of the lake bottom during construction but this will occur at a time that limits interference with salmon. While it was suggested that materials such as gravel be placed along the lake bottom that might encourage plant growth, the location is apparently not suitable for this type of rehabilitation. 6. The lot, as noted, is private and it extends out into the lake. The proposed pier and boatlift serve the lot. Private uses are pennitted in this area of the shoreline. The use is similar to those uses pennitted in an urban shoreline. The use should not impair the public use of this section of the lakeshore or the water in its vicinity. 7. The pier and low-scale boatlift will not interfere with any uses that might occur in this area of the lake. The comprehensive plan designates this area as suitable for single-family uses and the normal complement of accessory uses. On a lakeshore property, piers, docks and similar uses including a boatlift are considered reasonable accessory uses. 8. The proposed boatlift should not create any significant adverse affects on the shoreline environment. Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 3 0, 2009 Page 7 9. The pier and boatlift should not further harm the public interest. I 0. As noted in earlier decisions, the analysis of cumulative impact or impacts is hard to judge. A series of docks already protrude out into the lake from many of the homes. Clearly, there have had to be impacts to water quality and habitat as a result of motor boating and docks shading the lake and some of the shallow areas. This additional action will probably not have much effect on the overall circumstances. 11. Since boatlifts are neither permitted nor prohibited outright, they do require review under the Conditional Use criteria. The proposed use is generally consistent with the criteria noted above. 12. The applicant will need to ascertain the location of the Metro sewer line before beginning any operations in this area. RECOMMENDATION: The Conditional Use Permit and the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit for the pier and boatlift should be approved subject to the following condition: I. The applicant shall ascertain the location of the Metro sewer line and take precautions to avoid any interference with the line or its functions. ORDERED THIS 30th day of April 2009.

This request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant, and the Examiner may, after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper. An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 110, which requires that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of$75.00 and meeting other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City Hall. An appeal must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m., May 14, 2009. If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Covenants, the executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Council or final processing of the file. You may contact this office for information on formatting covenants. The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may occur concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not communicate in private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council. All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as Appeals to the City Council. Project Location Map 1; r !I :I'!" " s "' ,.

Box 1492, Renton, WA 98057 CONTACT: PROJECT: Gregory Ashley, Ashley Shoreline Design & Permitting, 16412 NE 101h Place, Bellevue, WA 98008 Provost Pier and Boatlift DEVELOPMENT DESCRIPTION: The applicant has requested a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit and a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit for the construction of a new pier and installation of a boatlift in conjunction with a single family residence. The property is 4,549 square feet in size and contains a single family residence located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The proposed project encompasses the construction of a 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8-feet wide pier and assembly and installation of a freestanding, pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction would be accomplished by driving eight 8-inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop-hammer pile driving system. Construction and staging of materials would be conducted using a barge. All construction debris would be removed from the site and appropriately disposed of on land. Provost Pier & Boatlift LUA09-006, SM, SMC, ECF Provost Pier & Boatlift LUA09-006, SM, SMC, ECF 2 The installation of a pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum, freestanding, portable boatlift (approximately 10 feet long by 10 feet wide) would take place in conjunction with the construction of the new pier. The boatlift would be at a maximum depth of approximately 1 O feet below the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). Assembly of the boatlift would take place on the barge and moored on Lake Washington during construction of the proposed new pier. The assembled boatlift would weigh approximately 500 pounds and would rest on four "foot pads" (12 inches x 18 inches) which would sit directly on the lake bottom. The boatlift would be operated by a hydraulic motor run by a solar powered 12 volt battery. Because the boatlift is a use not specifically allowed in the Shoreline Master Program, the approval of a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit is required for its installation. The site and adjacent properties are located along the shore of Lake Washington in the R-8 zone. Currently, there is no pier or dock along the existing shoreline at the project site. There is a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline and the lakebed in this vicinity consists of sand and gravel. No change in use of the property would occur as the result of the proposed project. Duration of construction of the pier and assembly and installation of the boatlift is estimated at 1 O to 15 days and would take place within the construction window established by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16-December 31. No job shack is necessary and no off-site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed. No trees are proposed to be removed and no modifications are requested as part of the proposed project. The proposed project would not obstruct views from surrounding properties. The cost of the pier and boatlift and the fair market value of the project is $32,300.00. An Environmental (SEPA) Review Determination of non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M) was issued for this project on March 2, 2009. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: See Attachment "A" SEC-TWNP-R: NEY.

Ashley Subject: RE: Provost Pier and Boatlift, Notice of Application and Proposed Determination of Non- Significance Mr. Wasser, The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe Fisheries Division has received and reviewed the Environmental Support Document for USAGE RGP-3 Application for the Provost Pier project (December 2008). Thank you for facilitate our acquisition of this report. Based on our review, we maintain our recommendation below and request that the project be conditioned to require the planting of emergent plants (such as hardstem bulrush) and fish friendly gravel in front of the bulkhead to provide fish habitat elements to mitigate for the site specific and cumulative impacts associated with this new dock. If fish friendly gravel were used as we recommended, there may be sufficient reduction in depth to successfully grow hardstem bulrush. Please let me know if you have any questions about these comments. Karen Walter MITFD From: Gregory W. Ashley [mailto:greg@shoreline-permitting.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 2009 2:45 PM To: Karen Walter Cc: 'Gerald Wasser' Subject: RE: Provost Pier and Boatlift, Notice of Application and Proposed Determination of Non-Significance Karen: I have mailed the biological support document prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services for the Provost project to you today. Our pier project is designed to meet the guidelines of RGP #3. While there is a bulkhead present on site, out project does not entail any repair, modification or expansion of the bulkhead. We believe the mitigation proposed for the project sufficiently compensates for the construction of the new pier. Also, it should be noted that the water depth at the bulkhead is approximately 3.5 feet at OHWM. We do not feel that the introduction of emergents in an unprotected area of this would depth would be successful. -Greg Gregory W. Ashley Ashley Shoreline Design & Permitting 16412 NE 10th Pl.

Provost PO Box 1492 Renton,WA 98057 Gregory Ashley Ashley Shoreline Design & Permitting 16412 NE 10th Place Bellevue, WA 98008 LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North Shoreline Conditional Use Permit and a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit for the installation of a pre-manufactured, freestanding, portable marine grade aluminum boatlift in association with an existing single-family residence. Development Services Recommendation: Approve The Development Services Report was received by the Examiner on March 3 1, 2009. After reviewing the Development Services Report, examining available information on file with the application, field checking the property and surrounding area; the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: MINUTES The following minutes are a summary of the April 7, 2009 hearing. The legal record is recorded on CD. The hearing opened on Tuesday, April 7, 2009, at 9:01 a.m. in the Council Chambers on the seventh floor of the Renton City Hall. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. The following exhibits were entered into the record: Exhibit No.1: Yellow file containing the original Exhibit No. 2: Vicinity Map application, proof of posting, proof of publication and other documentation pertinent to this request. Exhibit No. 3: Site Plan Exhibit No. 4: Pier and Boatlift Elevations Exhibit No. 5: Zoning Map Exhibit No. 6: City of Renton Determination of Non- Significance -Mitigated and Mitigation Measures Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 2 Exhibit No. 7: Shoreline Substantial Development Permit Exhibit No. 8: E-mail from Muckleshoot Indian Tribe requesting specific planting along the shoreline. The hearing opened with a presentation of the staff report by Gerald Wasser, Associate Planner, Community and Economic Development, City of Renton, I 055 S Grady Way, Renton, Washington 98055. The property is located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The proposed project is a 65-foot fully grated pier with an associated free-standing boatlift, which would be of marine grade aluminum. It is pre-manufactured, both the boatlift and the pier would be assembled and constructed on the water side of the property with the use of barge- mounted equipment. Eight 8-inch diameter piles would be driven by a drop hammer system located on the barge for the pier. The boatlift weighs approximately 500 pounds and would be set directly on the lake bottom on four footpads that are approximately 12" x 18" and would be operated by a hydraulic motor run by a 12 volt solar powered battery. No lights are projected for this facility. Currently there is no pier or boatlift on this property, there are similar facilities in the vicinity. There is a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline and the lakebed consists of sand and gravel. Duration of construction is estimated at 10-15 days and would take place within the construction window established by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16-December 31. The proposed project would not obstruct views from surrounding properties. The Environmental Review Committee issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated with one mitigation measure. No appeals were filed. An email was received from the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe asking for placement offish friendly gravel in front of the bulkhead and the planting of plants like bulrush etc. Since boatlifts are not specifically identified in the Shoreline Master Program, they require a Hearing Examiner decision under the Shoreline Conditional Use. The boatlift is consistent with the five Shoreline Conditional Use Permit criteria. This use is compatible with other permitted uses along this portion of Lake Washington. This use will not interfere with the public use of pnblic shorelines. The proposed nse is for one watercraft to be maintained at this site. The design is compatible with the surroundings and the City's Master Program. The freestanding residential boatlift would be associated with an existing single family residence and would be located 13-feet from the southerly property line and 9 feet from the northerly property line. The use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Master Program. The City of Renton piers and docks require a five foot side yard setback and cannot exceed 80 feet in length. Gregory Ashley, Ashley Shoreline Design & Permitting, 16412 NE 1 O"' Place, Bellevue, WA 98008 stated that the US Corps of Engineers, Fisheries and US Wildlife recommend that all boatlifts be placed in deeper than 9- feet of water, this project was designed in order to get the boatlift into just over nine feet of water. In reference to the suggestion that spawning gravel be placed along the bulkhead as well as plant emergent vegetation, due to the depth of the water at the bulkhead which is three and a half feet over the high water mark, most emergent vegetation would not take hold and root in that location due to the wave and wind action that takes place on this site. Spawning gravel tends to move around quite vigorously so it wonld not stay in place. The only fish that spawn on the beach are sockeye and that is not a sockeye spawning area, other fish will not come in to spawn along that section. Enough gravel could be brought in to make the water shallower, however, the gravel will not stay in place, it will wash away and be gone, some may come back but it would take a large structure to keep the gravel in place. Provost Pier and Boat lifl File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 3 The hydraulic fluid used in these lifts is non-toxic and not detrimental to the environment. The pier is fully grated to allow light to pass through the surface. This will help discourage predators from hanging out under the pier and allows salmon to hang out under the pier without the fear of predators. Jerry Brennan, 3405 Lake Washington Blvd., Renton 98056 stated that he lives just south of the site and is in support of the residential docks in the area and believe this dock meets the criteria for the use. Kayren Kittrick, Community and Economic Development stated that she has seen nothing on the documents showing that there is a sanitary sewer line that serves most of these homes. They must do a locate prior to installing any piles. It will be necessary to call before any digging is done in order to protect the sewer line. The Examiner called for further testimony regarding this project. There was no one else wishing to speak, and no further comments from staff. The hearing closed at 9:28 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATION Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now makes and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1. The applicants, Cynthia M. and Alan E. Provost, filed a request for a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit as well as a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit to install a pier and boatlift in Lake Washington. 2. The yellow file containing the staff report, the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) documentation and other pertinent materials was entered into the record as Exhibit # 1. 3. The Environmental Review Committee (ERC), the City's responsible official issued a Determination of Non-Significance-Mitigated (DNS-M). 4. The subject proposal was reviewed by all departments with an interest in the matter. 5. There was no opposition from the public regarding the subject proposal. 6. The subject site is located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The subject site is located west of Lake Washington Boulevard on the shoreline of Lake Washington. 7. The map element of the Comprehensive Plan designates the area in which the subject site is located as suitable for the development of single family uses, but does not mandate such development without consideration of other policies of the Plan. 8. The subject site is currently zoned R-8 (Single Family -8 dwelling units/acre). 9. The subject site was annexed to the City with the adoption of Ordinance 1804 enacted in December 1959. Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 4 I 0. The subject site is approximately 4,549 square feet but a portion of the property extends out into the lake. I I. A single family home is located on the eastern, uplands portion of the site. 12. The applicant proposes erecting a new pier and boatlift. The pier is proposed to be 65 feet long and vary from 4 to 8 feet wide. The pier would have a surface area of approximately 315 square feet. It would have a grated deck that allow light to pass making it less likely to harbor salmon predators. The pier would be supported by eight 8-inch piles. 13. The boatlift would be approximately 10 feet square with a surface area of approximately 100 square feet. The boatlift would be freestanding and portable. It would be constructed of marine grade aluminum. 14. All construction would be accomplished from the lake by barge. 15. Code requires a five foot side yard setback from the property line. The pier and boatlift would be located approximately 13 feet from the south property line and approximately 9 feet from the north property line. Code permits docks to extend 80 feet into the lake and the applicant proposes a 65 fool long combination. 16. The work will be done in the time window specified by the state to avoid interfering with salmon activity in the lake. 17. The hydraulic fluid that will help operate the boatlift is non-toxic and biodegradable so leaks would not create any environmental hazards. 18. The Muckleshoot tribe wants a gravel bottom to allow plants to be established in this area. 19. The applicant's representative noted that in this location, wind and water action would disrupt any bottom materials and hamper plant growth. 20. Lake Washington's shoreline is classified as a Shoreline of Statewide Significance and therefore any development adjacent to it is subject to the City's Shoreline Master Program. This section of the shoreline is designated as an Urban Shoreline. 21. Staff noted that the residential designation of the subject site permits docks associated with single- family uses along this portion of the shoreline. Boatlifts are not a listed use nor are they a prohibited use and, therefore, are subject to a shoreline conditional use review. 22. A Metro sewer line is located in the lake bottom in the vicinity of the subject site. The applicant should take precautions and make sure the location of the line is known when they begin operation. CONCLUSIONS: I. The criteria for approving a Shoreline Conditional Use permit are twofold. There are City criteria and those City criteria require compliance with additional State criteria. Those criteria are as follows: Provost Pier and Boat lili File No.: LUA-09-006, ECf, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 5 Renton: Section 4-9-190.l.5: 5. Conditional Use: a. Purpose: Upon proper application, a conditional use permit may be granted. The objective of a conditional use provision is to provide more control and flexibility for implementing the regulations of the Master Program. With provisions to control undesirable effects, the scope of uses can be expanded to include many uses. b. Decision Criteria: Uses classified as conditional uses can be permitted only after consideration and by meeting such performance standards that make the use compatible with other permitted uses within that area. A conditional use permit will be granted subject to each of the following conditions: i. The use must be compatible with other permitted uses within that area. ii. The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines. iii. Design of the site will be compatible with the surroundings and the City's Master Program. iv. The use shall be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Master Program. v. The use meets the conditional use criteria in WAC 173-27-160. Washington State: WAC 173-27-160: Review criteria for conditional use permits. The purpose of a conditional use permit is to provide a system within the master program which allows flexibility in the application of use regulations in a manner consistent with the policies ofRCW 90.58.020. In authorizing a conditional use, special conditions may be attached to the permit by local government or the department to prevent undesirable effects of the proposed use and/or to assure consistency of the project with the act and the local master program. (I) Uses which are classified or set forth in the applicable master program as conditional uses may be authorized provided that the applicant demonstrates all of the following: (a) That the proposed use is consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58.020 and the master program; (b) That the proposed use will not interfere with the normal public use of public shorelines; (c) That the proposed use of the site and design of the project is compatible with other authorized uses within the area and with uses plarmed for the area under the comprehensive plan and shoreline master program; Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 6 ( d) That the proposed use will cause no significant adverse effects to the shoreline environment in which it is to be located; and (e) That the public interest suffers no substantial detrimental effect. (2) In the granting of all conditional use permits, consideration shall be given to the cumulative impact of additional requests for like actions in the area. For example, if conditional use permits were granted for other developments in the area where similar circumstances exist, the total of the conditional uses shall also remain consistent with the policies ofRCW 90.58.020 and shall not produce substantial adverse effects to the shoreline environment. (3) Other uses which are not classified or set forth in the applicable master program may be authorized as conditional uses provided the applicant can demonstrate consistency with the requirements of this section and the requirements for conditional uses contained in the master program. (4) Uses which are specifically prohibited by the master program may not be authorized pursuant to either subsection(!) or (2) of this section. 2. The area is zoned for and developed with single family uses. Many of the properties are served by docks and piers and some properties have boatlifts. The boatlift proposed by the applicant appears to be compatible with the uses located in this area. 3. The proposed boatlift should not interfere with any public use of the shoreline. Docks located both north and south of the proposed dock already extend out into the lake and therefore, an additional pier will not hamper near-shore navigation. This shoreline is privately owned and developed with a single- family home. 4. The lift will be setback from property lines more than required by code and will not create any untoward impacts on adjacent uses or on water-oriented uses. 5. The next series of criteria are contained within the Washington Administrative Code. One of the paramount goals is to protect the ecology of the shoreline. In this case, there should be no change other than some disturbance of the lake bottom during construction but this will occur at a time that limits interference with salmon. While it was suggested that materials such as gravel be placed along the lake bottom that might encourage plant growth, the location is apparently not suitable for this type of rehabilitation. 6. The lot, as noted, is private and it extends out into the lake. The proposed pier and boatlift serve the lot. Private uses are permitted in this area of the shoreline. The use is similar to those uses permitted in an urban shoreline. The use should not impair the public use of this section of the lakeshore or the water in its vicinity. 7. The pier and low-scale boatlift will not interfere with any uses that might occur in this area of the lake. The comprehensive plan designates this area as suitable for single-family uses and the normal complement of accessory uses. On a lakeshore property, piers, docks and similar uses including a boatlift are considered reasonable accessory uses. 8. The proposed boatlift should not create any significant adverse affects on the shoreline environment. Provost Pier and Boat lift File No.: LUA-09-006, ECF, SM, SMC April 30, 2009 Page 7 9. The pier and boatlift should not further harm the public interest. l 0. As noted in earlier decisions, the analysis of cumulative impact or impacts is hard to judge. A series of docks already protrude out into the lake from many of the homes. Clearly, there have had to be impacts to water quality and habitat as a result of motor boating and docks shading the lake and some of the shallow areas. This additional action will probably not have much effect on the overall circumstances. 11. Since boatlifts are neither pennitted nor prohibited outright, they do require review under the Conditional Use criteria. The proposed use is generally consistent with the criteria noted above. 12. The applicant will need to ascertain the location of the Metro sewer line before beginning any operations in this area. RECOMMENDATION: The Conditional Use Penni! and the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit for the pier and boatlift should be approved subject to the following condition: 1. The applicant shall ascertain the location of the Metro sewer line and take precautions to avoid any interference with the line or its functions. ORDERED THIS 30th day of April 2009.

This request shall set forth the specific ambiguities or errors discovered by such appellant, and the Examiner may, after review of the record, take further action as he deems proper. An appeal to the City Council is governed by Title IV, Chapter 8, Section 110, which requires that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk, accompanying a filing fee of$75.00 and meeting other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection or purchase in the Finance Department, first floor of City Hall. An appeal must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m., May 14, 2009. If the Examiner's Recommendation or Decision contains the requirement for Restrictive Coveuants, the executed Covenants will be required prior to approval by City Council or final processing of the file. You may contact this office for information on formatting covenants. The Appearance of Fairness Doctrine provides that no ex parte (private one-on-one) communications may occur concerning pending land use decisions. This means that parties to a land use decision may not comrnun icate in private with any decision-maker concerning the proposal. Decision-makers in the land use process include both the Hearing Examiner and members of the City Council. All communications concerning the proposal must be made in public. This public communication permits all interested parties to know the contents of the communication and would allow them to openly rebut the evidence. Any violation of this doctrine would result in the invalidation of the request by the Court. The Doctrine applies not only to the initial public hearing but to all Requests for Reconsideration as well as Appeals to the City Council.

The site is a 4,549 sq. ft. single-family residential use parcel located at 3707 Lk. Wa. Blvd. N. The project will require both a Shoreline Substantial Development and Conditional Use Permit. The site and adjacent properties are zoned R-8 and located along the shoreline of Lake Washington. The existing shoreline consists of a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline. The lakebed consists of sand and gravel. Drainage conditions are not applicable to this project. There will not be any change to the existing use of the property. The scope of the project entails construction of a three hundred fifteen (315) SF pier, sixty-five (65) in length from OHWM and the assembly ofa pre manufactured marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction will be accomplished by driving eight (8) four (4) inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop hammer pile driving system. The boatlift assembly will be accomplished with common hand tools. The boatlift will be assembled on the barge, and moored on Lake Washington during the construction. All construction materials will be stored on board the barge. The time to complete construction of the pier and installation of the boatlift is ten (10) to fifteen (15) days. No job shack is needed. No off site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed for this project. No trees are to be removed, no land will be dedicated to the city, and no modifications are requested. No existing residential units will have an obstructed view because of this project. The cost of pier and boatlift and the fair market value of the project is $32,300.00. 16412 'N'E JOtli IJ'fuce • c&lkvue, 'Wasliington 98008-3707 • (J'/ione: {425) 957-9381 • e-,nail: gre9@sliorefine-pennitting.com If you have any questions regarding your permits, please do not hesitate to call.

An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the City identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, ifit can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. The City uses this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply." Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions as best as you can. If you have any questions, please ask the Planning staff for assistance. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans, and programs), the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

Environmental Element: Fisheries and Wildlife Resources objectives and policies. G. DEPARTMENT ANALYSIS: 1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND The applicant has requested a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit and a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit for the construction of a new pier and installation of a boatlift in conjunction with a single family residence. The property is 4,549 square feet in size and contains a single family residence located at 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard North. The proposed project encompasses the construction of a 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8- feet wide pier and assembly and installation of a freestanding, pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction would be accomplished by driving eight 4-inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop-hammer pile driving system. Construction and staging of materials would be conducted using a barge. All construction debris would be removed from the site and appropriately disposed of on land. The installation of a pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum, freestanding, portable boatlift (approximately 10 feet long by 10 feet wide) would take place in conjunction with the construction of the new pier. The boatlift would be at a maximum depth of approximately 10 feet below the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). Assembly of the boatlift would take place on the barge and moored on Lake Washington during construction of the proposed new pier. The assembled boatlift would weigh approximately 500 pounds and would rest on four "foot pads" (12 inches x 18 inches) which would sit directly on the lake bottom. The boatlift would be operated by a hydraulic motor run by a solar powered 12 volt battery. Because the boatlift is a use not specifically allowed in the Shoreline Master Program, the approval of a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit is required for its installation. The site and adjacent properties are located along the shore of Lake Washington in the R-8 zone. Currently, there is no pier or dock along the existing shoreline at the project site. There is HEX Rpt.09-006.doc Ci1y o{l?.enron /)qH1rt11w111 Com11111n1r_1· & Lco110111ic Dc1·efop111L'111 Provost Pier mu/ Bomlift Prclimina,y /?.(port 10 1/ie I feunng E.ran!lncr ll'A09-006, SM, SMC, ff'F Report nf April 7. 2009 Page 4 of 8 a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline and the lakebed in this vicinity consists of sand and gravel. No change in use of the property would occur as the result of the proposed project. Duration of construction of the pier and assembly and installation of the boat lift is estimated at 1 O to 15 days and would take place within the construction window established by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16 -December 31. No job shack is necessary and no off-site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed. All work would be accomplished from the water side. No trees are proposed to be removed and no modifications are requested as part of the proposed project. The proposed project would not obstruct views from surrounding properties. The cost of the pier and boatlift and the fair market value of the project is $32,300.00. 2. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and SEPA (RCW 43.21 C, 1971 as amended) on March 2, 2009 the Environmental Review Committee (ERG) issued a Determination of Non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M) for the Provost Pier and Boatlift. A 14-day appeal period ended on March 20, 2009. No appeals of the threshold determination were filed. 3. COMPLIANCE WITH ERC MITIGATION MEASURES A Determination of Non-Significance --Mitigated was issued by the City of Renton's Environmental Review Committee (ERG) on March 2, 2009 requiring one mitigation measure as follows: 1. The applicant shall use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. 4. STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS Representatives from various city departments have reviewed the application materials to identify and address site plan issues from the proposed development. These comments are contained in the official file, and the essence of the comments has been incorporated into the appropriate sections of this report and the Departmental Recommendation at the end of the report. 5. CONSISTENCY WITH SHORELINE CONDITIONAL USE CRITERIA RMC Section 4-9-190.1 lists 5 criteria that the Hearing Examiner is asked to consider when making a decision on a Shoreline Conditional Use application. These include the following: (1) The use must be compatible with other permitted uses within the area. The applicant proposes to construct a pier and to install a pre-manufactured, freestanding, portable boatlift in association with an existing single family residence on the shore of Lake Washington. The waterfront along this portion of Lake Washington is currently developed with residential water-related uses. The site currently does not include a pier or boat lift. (2) The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines. The proposed 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8-feet wide residential pier and 10-foot x 10-foot boatlift would be located along the shore of Lake Washington. The proposed project would meet City of Renton development standards and Building Code requirements. The proposed use is for one watercraft to be maintained at this site, which is along private shoreline. HEX Rpt.09-006.doc Ciry cf Renton Ocpar/!!ll'/11 ( ·omnw11i1y & Econon11c Di.!\ 'Clop111en1 Provost Pier uud lfolltlifi Prclimill(uy Report to thi.! Hi.!ari11g, Ern/!/i11cr LUA09-006, SM, SMC, ECF Report of April 7, 2009 (3) Page 5 of 8 Design of the site will be compatible with the surroundings and the City's Master Program. The proposed 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8-feet wide residential pier and 1 O foot x 1 O foot freestanding residential boatlift would be associated with an existing single family residence. The City's Shoreline Master Program regulations require a minimum five feet setback to an adjacent property line. The proposed boatlift would be 13-feet from the southerly property line and the proposed pier would be 9-feet from the northerly property line. Additionally, it is compatible with other properties with such structures in the surrounding area. The City's Shoreline Master Program (WAC 173-26-230 b) states the design and construction shall avoid or, if that is not possible, shall minimize and mitigate the impacts to ecological functions, and critical areas resources. The proposed residential pier and boatlift are compatible with the objectives and policies of the City's Master Program as an accessory water use to an existing residential use. (4) The use shall be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the City's Master Program. The use is a residential accessory use often associated with single family waterfront residences. While no setbacks are established in the Comprehensive Plan or Development Regulations for boatlifts, in the City of Renton, piers and docks require a five (5) ft. side yard setback and cannot exceed 80 feet in length. These regulations would not necessarily be applied to a boatlift, however, in this instance; the proposed boatlift would comply with the City specifications relative to docks. The boatlift would be installed abutting the proposed new pier and would not extend beyond the 65-foot length of the pier. In addition, there is a 13-foot side yard setback between the proposed boatlift and the southerly property line. (5) The use meets the conditional use criteria in WAC 173-27-160, to provide a system within the Master Program, which allows flexibility in the application of use regulations in a manner consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58.020. In authorizing a conditional use, special conditions may be attached to the permit by local government or the department to prevent undesirable effects of the proposed use and/or to assure consistency of the project with the act and the local master program. (A) Uses which are classified or set forth in the application master program as conditional uses may be authorized provided that the applicant demonstrates all the following: HEX Rpt.09-006.doc i) That the proposed use is consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58. 020 and the master program. Lake Washington is classified as a Shoreline of Statewide Significance. The proposed private residential boatlift demonstrates compliance and/or non-applicability to the policies of RCW 90.58.020 and the master program. ii) That the proposed use will not interfere with the normal public use of public shorelines. The subject site is single-family residential private property on the shore of Lake Washington. No interference with the public use of public shoreline is anticipated to occur as the site is not directly adjacent to any public shoreline. iii) That the proposed use of the site and design of the project is compatible with other authorized uses within the area and with uses planned for the area under the comprehensive plan and shoreline master program. The subject site is designated Residential Single-Family in the City's Comprehensive Plan and the proposed use qualifies as an accessory use to the waterfront property. The residential boatlift is compatible in design and customary use to the adjacent lakefront residential properties and the Shoreline Master Program as discussed previously. iv) That the proposed use will cause no significant adverse effects to the shoreline environment in which it is to be located. This section of Lake Washington is designated as Urban Environment in the Shoreline Master Program regulations and is a developed shoreline of residential uses. If the City 1fl?L't1/nn J)cpur1111rn1 Cn11111111nily & Eco11om1c De1·elop111e11t Provo!.it Pier and Boatfiff Prclimina1y Report w rfw Hml'ing Fw1mi11ff LUA09-006, SM, SMC. ECF Reptirt of April 7. 2009 Pagi.: 6 of8 boatlift is installed and maintained according to all required state and local permits, the use is not expected to cause significant adverse effect to the shoreline environment. v) That the public interest suffers no substantial detrimental effects. Because the site is a private single-family residential use and is the only watercraft lift proposed on the site at this time, it is not anticipated that any significant detrimental effects would occur. The proposed boatlift would be associated with a proposed pier and no adverse impacts to shoreline views are anticipated. (B) In the granting of all conditional use permits, consideration shall be given to the cumulative impact of additional requests for like actions in the area. This single-family residential site is similar to other properties in the immediate vicinity. The proposed pier and boatlift are compatible with the adjacent residential properties. The applicant proposes to locate the proposed boatlift in conjunction with a proposed pier and it is anticipated that no adverse cumulative impact would occur. (C) Other uses which are not classified or set forth in the applicable master program may be authorized as conditional uses provided the applicant can demonstrate consistency with the requirements of this section and the requirements for conditional uses contained in the master program. A residential boatlift is not a use set forth in the Shoreline Master Program. Therefore, this project requires a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit. The criteria discussed in this report have demonstrated the applicant's request is consistent with the requirements. (D) Uses which are specifically prohibited by the master program may not be authorized pursuant to either subsection (A) or (B) of this section. A residential boatlift is not specifically prohibited by the City's Shoreline Master Program. H.

The proposed project encompasses the construction of a 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8-feet wide pier and assembly and installation of a freestanding, pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction would be accomplished by driving eight 4-inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop-hammer pile driving system. Construction and staging of materials would be conducted using a barge. All construction debris would be removed from the site and appropriately disposed of on land. The installation of a pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum, freestanding, portable boatlift (approximately 10 feet long by 10 feet wide) would take place in conjunction with the construction of the new pier. The boatlift would be at a maximum depth of approximately 10 feet below the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). Assembly of the boatlift would take place on the barge and moored on Lake Washington during construction of the proposed new pier. The assembled boatlift would weigh approximately 500 pounds and would rest on four "foot pads" (12 inches x 18 inches) which would sit directly on the lake bottom. The boatlift would be operated by a hydraulic motor run by a solar powered 12 volt battery. Because the boatlift is a use not specifically allowed in the Shoreline Master Program, the approval of a Shoreline Conditional Use Permit is required for its installation. The site and adjacent properties are located along the shore of Lake Washington in the R-8 zone. Currently, there is no pier or dock along the existing shoreline at the project site. There is a concrete bulkhead along the shoreline and the lakebed in this vicinity consists of sand and gravel. No change in use of the property would occur as the result of the proposed project. Duration of construction of the pier and assembly and installation of the boatlift is estimated at 1 O to 15 days and would take place within the construction window established by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16 -December 31. No job shack is necessary and no off-site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed. No trees are proposed to be removed and no modifications are requested as part of the proposed project. The proposed project would not obstruct views from surrounding properties. The cost of the pier and boatlift and the fair market value of the project is $32,300.00. An Environmental (SEPA) Review Determination of non-Significance -Mitigated (DNS-M) was issued for this project on March 2, 2009.

Project Location Map ERC REPORT 09-006 Provost Pier.doc City of Renton Department of C. nity & Economic Development PROVOST PIER AND BOATLIFT Report of March 2, 2009 II PART ONE: PROJECT DESCRIPTION/ BACKGROUND 'onmental Review Committee Report LUA09-006, ECF, SMC, SM Page 2 of 5 The project site is located on the eastern shore of Lake Washington along Lake Washington Boulevard North. Lake Washington is designated as a Shoreline of Statewide Significance and is considered to be Class 1 water subject to the City of Renton Shoreline Master Program. The shoreline is classified as an "Urban Environment" in the City's Shoreline Regulations. This designation permits a variety of uses within the shoreline area provided the use complies with the Master Program. The proposed pier is a use which is outright permitted in this area. However, boatlifts are not outright permitted uses and, therefore, a conditional use permit is required and will be reviewed by the Hearing Examiner. The proposed project encompasses the construction ofa 315 square foot, 65-foot long, 4 to 8-feet in width pier and assembly and installation of a freestanding, pre-manufactured, marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction would be accomplished by driving eight 4-inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop-hammer pile driving system. Construction and staging of materials and equipment would be conducted using a barge. All construction debris would be removed from the site and appropriately disposed of on land. The proposed boatlift would be approximately 10-feet long by IO-feet wide. The boatlift would be assembled using common hand tools on the barge and moored on Lake Washington during construction of the pier. All construction materials would be stored on the barge. The estimated time to complete construction of the pier and installation of the boatlift is 10 to 15 days. Project construction, assembly and installation would take place during the State Department of Fish and Wildlife established construction window, July 16 through December 31. No job shack would be needed; no off site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed for the project. No trees are to be removed, no land would be dedicated to the City, and no modifications are requested. The views of surrounding property owners would not be obstructed because of this project. The cost of the pier and boatlift and their fair market value would be $32,300.00. PART TWO: ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW In compliance with RCW 43.21C.240, the following environmental (SEPA) review addresses only those project impacts that are not adequately addressed under existing development standards and environmental regulations. A. Environmental Threshold Recommendation Based on analysis of probable impacts from the proposal, staff recommends that the Responsible Officials: Issue a DNS-M with a 14-day Appeal Period. B. Mitigation Measures 1. The applicant shall use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. C. Exhibits Exhibit I Exhibit 2 Exhibit 3 Exhibit 4 Vicinity Map Site Plan Elevations and Details Zoning Map D. Environmental Impacts The Proposal was circulated and reviewed by various City Departments and Divisions to determine whether the applicant has adequately identified and addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in ERC Report LUA09-006 ECF, SMC, SM City of Renton Department oJC, nity & Economic Development PROVOST PIER AND BOATLir T Report of March 2, 2009 ·onmental Review Committee Report LUA09-006, ECF, SMC, SM Page 3 of 5 conjunction with the proposed development. Staff reviewers have identified that the proposal is likely to have the following probable impacts: 1. Earth Impacts: The proposed project does not require any fill or excavation of soils. The pier would be constructed using barge mounted equipment and the boatlift would be assembled on the barge using common hand tools. Mitigation Measnres: No mitigation measures are recommended. Nexus: NIA 2. Water Impacts: Construction activities could potentially cause degradation of water quality. An analysis of potential biological impacts of the proposed project was prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008, and was submitted with the project application. That analysis identifies construction methods which would minimize such impacts. These methods include: construction and staging of materials and equipment using a barge to minimize shoreline soil disturbance and associated degradation of water quality; floating silt curtains would be deployed in the lake around the construction operation to control dispersion of any accidental short term disturbance of sediments; and, all construction debris would be removed from the site and properly disposed of on land. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. Mitigation Measures: The applicant shall use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. Nexus: SEPA, Shoreline Master Program 3. Vegetation Impacts: The proposed pier and boatlift would be installed within and over Lake Washington. During construction activities removal of vegetation on the shoreline and new planting would be carried out under controlled conditions. As identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts, prepared by EcoPacific, dated December 15, 2008, the immediate area around the site is already developed with in-water structures and bank armoring and, therefore, provides low quality foraging and rearing habitat relative to more undeveloped areas of Lake Washington. The analysis references a site-specific Shoreline Planting Plan (SPP) which has been developed for shoreline habitat enhancement. This would involve the removal of non- native vegetation and planting of native riparian plants and ongoing maintenance and monitoring. Non- native shoreline vegetation would be removed and over 410 square feet of native vegetation would be installed along much of the shoreline. Plantings would include trees, willows, and an assortment of shrubs, groundcover, and emergents. These plantings would enhance erosion protection; provide over-water shade; and supply leaflitter, detritus, insects, and woody debris to the lake's littoral fringe. Implementation of the SPP would improve local habitat quality and thus provide offsets for potential negative impacts of the new in-water structures. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential impacts including Shoreline Planting Plan, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation necessary. Nexus: SEPA, Shoreline Master Program 4. Wildlife Impacts: The proposed pier and boatlift would be constructed, assembled and installed within and over Lake Washington. Salmonids known to be present in southern Lake Washington include Puget Sound Chinook salmon, Coho salmon, sockeye salmon, steelhead trout, bull trout and cutthroat trout. Puget Sound Chinook, Puget Sound steelhead and bull trout are listed as threatened by the Endangered Species Act. The proposed pier would not likely result in adverse impacts to fish migration routes or spawning areas. hnpacts expected ERC Report LUA09-006 ECF, SMC, SM City of Renton Department of Cc 'nity & Economic Development PROVOST PIER AND BOATLIFT Report of March 2, 2009 ·onmental Review Committee Report LUA09-006, ECF, SMC, SM Page 4 of5 from the proposed project include: increased water turbidity (shoreline erosion and sediment suspension) during the construction period could temporarily disturb feeding activities; pile driving would temporarily introduce noise and vibration that could disrupt feeding activity and cause avoidance movements away from the site; increased shading of the lake bottom could reduce abundance of available prey organisms (aquatic invertebrates) for fish by decreasing plant growth. Shading could also interfere with behavior and migration patterns of juvenile salmon; the presence of new underwater structures could enhance nesting habitat for bass and thus increase predation pressure on juvenile salmon; the presence of new underwater structures could disrupt water/sediment transport patterns and accelerate beach erosion or increase availability of spawning habitat for predator fish species such as small mouth bass; and, increased boat usage of the site could result in increased disturbance (sediment resuspension, water pollution) of the shallow fish habitat. The analysis identifies design features which would mitigate the impacts. These include: the use of narrow walkways and grating for light passage to reduce shading effects; the bottom of the new pier would be a minimum of 1.5 feet above the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) and no deck skirting is proposed; narrow piles would be used to limit impacts to migrating smolts and no piles would installed within 15 feet of the OHWM; no finger piers or mooring pilings would be installed; and, wood treatment caps and stringers would be installed in compliance with Western Wood Preservers Institute standards to reduce the potential for leaching of contaminants into the water column to negligible levels. No additional lighting would be installed. Construction, assembly and installation would be short term and would be accomplished during the construction window established by the State Department of Fish and Wildlife, July 16 -December 31. The analysis further recommends that if a drop-hammer pile driver is used, sound attenuation measures would include use of a bubble curtain (100% pile perimeter coverage), or a block of wood at least 6-inches thick placed between the pile driver and the pile. Staff recommends that the applicant be required to use the recommendations identified in the analysis of potential biological impacts including design features which would mitigate the impacts, prepared by EcoPacific Environmental Services, dated December 15, 2008. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation necessary. Nexus: SEPA, Shoreline master Program E.

The following comments on development and permitting issues are based on the pre-application submittals made to the City of Renton by the applicant and the codes in effect on the date of review. The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official decision-makers ( e.g., Hearing Examiner, Planning Director, Development Services Director, Public Works Administrator, Community & Economic Development Administrator and City Council). Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. The applicant is encouraged to review all applicable sections of the Renton Municipal Code. The Development Regulations are available for purchase for $50.00 plus tax, from the Finance Division on the first floor of City Hall or on the City's website www.rentonwa.gov. Project Proposal: The proposal is to build a new 64-foot dock and install a pre-manufactured, freestanding, portable boatlift in association with an existing single family residence located at 3707 Lake Washington Blvd. North. Zoning/Comprehensive Plan: The subject property is located within the Residential -8 dwelling units per acre (R-8) zone and has been designated Residential Single Family (RSF) in the Comprehensive Plan. Current Use: An existing single family residence to remain. Shoreline Master Program Regulations: The City of Renton Shoreline Master Program identifies Lake Washington as a Regulated Water Body. Lake Washington has also been identified as a Shoreline of Statewide Significance. Lake Washington has further been classified by the City of Renton as an Urban Environment. Private single family residence piers and docks are permitted with a Shoreline Substantial Development Pennit (RMC 4-3-090L.d.iv). Design criteria for single family docks and piers are specified in RMC 4-3-090L.e). These design criteria include: • Number -There shall be no more than one pier per developed waterfront lot or ownership. • Length -The dock may extend to a maximum of 80 feet beyond the ordinary high water line into the water or until a depth of 12 feet below the mean low water mark, whichever is reached first. However, in no case shall a dock of less than 50 feet in length be required. The proposed dock appears to conform to this criterion. The applicant has indicated that the proposed dock would be 64 feet in length from the ordinary high water mark. • Width -The maximum width of a dock shall be 8 feet. The proposed dock appears to conform to this criterion. The applicant has indicated that the proposed dock would be 8 feet in width at its widest point. ProvtJst Dot:k and Boatlit1 Pre-ApJ)lication Meeting October 30. 2008 Page 2 of3 • Location -No portion of a pier or dock for the sole purpose of a private single family residence may lie closer than 5 feel to an adjacent property line. The proposed dock appears to conform to this criterion. The applicant has indicated that both the proposed boatlift and the proposed dock are more than 5 feet from the side property lines. • Extension -One extension of a dock parallel to the shoreline or one float may be allowed provided such extension is not located closer than 5 feet from a side lot line or exceed I 00 square feet in size. This criterion does not apply to the proposed project Boatlifts are 1101 specifically permitted a11d, therefore, are subject to a Shoreline Conditio11al Use Permit. The review criteria are specified in State law (RCW 173-27-160): The purpose of a conditional use permit is to provide a system within the master program which allows flexibility in the application of use regulations in a manner consistent with the policies ofRCW 90.58.020. h1 authorizing a conditional use, special conditions may be attached to the permit by local government or the department to prevent undesirable effects of the proposed use and/or to assure consistency of the project with the act and the local master program. (I) Uses which are classified or set forth in the applicable master program as conditional uses may be authorized provided that the applicant demonstrates all of the following: (a) That the proposed use is consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58.020 and the master program; (b) Thal the proposed use will not interfere with the nomaal public use of public shorelines; (c) That the proposed use of the site and design of the project is compatible with other authorized uses within the area and with uses planned for the area under the comprehensive plan and shoreline master program; (d) That the proposed use will cause no significant adverse effects to the shoreline environment in which it is to be located; and ( e) That the public interest suffers no substantial detrimental effect. (2) In the granting of all conditional use permits, consideration shall be given to the cumulative impact of additional requests for like actions in the area. For example, if conditional use permits were granted for other developments in the area where similar circumstances exist, the total of the conditional uses shall also remain consistent with the policies of RCW 90.58.020 and shall not produce substantial adverse effects to the shoreline environment. (3) Other uses which are not classified or set forth in the applicable master program may be authorized as conditional uses provided the applicant can demonstrate consistency with the requirements of this section and the requirements for conditional uses contained in the master program. (4) Uses which are specifically prohibited by the master program may not be authorized pursuant to either subsection ( 1) or (2) of this section. Critical Areas: The project is located along Lake Washington, a Shoreline of the State. Environmental Review: The proposed project would be located on lands covered by water and is, therefore, subject to Environmental (SEP A) Review. Provost Dock and Boatlitl Pre-Application Meeting October 30, 2008 Page3of3 Permit Requirements: Because the Renton Municipal Code does not outright permit boatlifls the applicant must make formal submittal for a Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permil, a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit and Environmental Review for the boatlifl. A Shoreline Substantial Development Permit and Environmental Review would be required for the construction of the proposed new dock. The proposed new dock and boatlifl may be combined in one Land Use Master Application. Should the project be approved by the Hearing Examiner, subsequent approvals are necessary by the Washington State Department of Ecology. The Examiner would issue the Shoreline Substantial Development Permit and Conditional Use Permit and forward them to the Washington State Department of Ecology and the Attorney General for approval. A submittal checklist, listing the items that must be included in the submittal packet to the City, is included in the preapplication meeting packet of information. Review by the Hearing Examiner has an estimated time frame of 12 weeks for preliminary approval. Note: The in-lake sewer line must be located prior to construction. Fees: The following fees would be required upon submittal of application materials: Hearing Examiner Conditional Use Permit Shoreline Substantial Development Permit Environmental Review TOTAL cc: Jennifer Henning $2,000.00 $250.00 if the project value is under $100,000.00 (or $500.00 if the project value is greater than $100,000.00) $500.00 $2,750.00 ( or $3,000.00) ZONING PW TECHNlCAL SERVICES 07/15/08 B3 -30 T23N RSE E 1/2 D3 -06 T23N RSE E 1/2 0 200 400 1-tJ I Feel 1:4,800 ("') ,la,.

The proposed boatlift is compatible with Section 7 .12 Piers and Docks of the Renton Shoreline Master Program. Piers and docks are allowed for single-family residential use to provide reasonable and safe moorage. Boatlifts are accessory structures to piers and docks for mooring a boat in a safe and secure manner. Most properties in the area have existing boatlifts. The use will not interfere with the public use of public shorelines, as there are none in the immediate vicinity. The design of the site is compatible with the existing adjacent dock and boatlifts in the neighborhood. B. Approximately 90% of all damage to watercraft occurs when they are tied to a pier or dock. When a boatlift is use to secure a watercraft up out of the water next to a pier or dock, this damage is greatly reduced or eliminated. I. The addition of a boatlift to the proposed pier will not increase the use of watercraft, or lead to an overconcentration of boat and boatlift use within the city or immediate area. 2. The proposed location is suited for the boatlift, as the site is compatible with adjoining sites, which have and have had boatlifts in operation for many years. C. The proposed use will not have adverse effects on adjacent properties, as the majority of the structure of the boatlift remains under water. • The proposed boatlift is compatible with the residential scale and character of the neighborhood as most of the adjacent properties have boatlifts. • No additional parking is required. • No impacts to traffic will occur. • No potential impacts to noise or glare will occur, as the majority of the structure of the boatlift remains under water. • No landscaping is proposed for his project. • There are no accessory uses to this project. 16412 ;NP. 10tli IPfiue • 'Bellevue, 'Wasliington 98008-3707 • tPfwne: (425) 957-9381 • e-mail: gre9@slioretine-permittine.com ; ' • No existing buildings or structures will be converted. • The proposed boatlift and location does not impose any burden to public improvements, facilities, utilities, and services. • The Jot coverage will not exceed 50%. • The yard will not be impacted. • The height of the boatlift conforms to all height requirements.

The site is a 4,549 sq. ft. single-family residential use parcel located at 3707 Lk. Wa. Blvd. N. The project will require both a Shoreline Substantial Development and Conditional Use Permit. The site and adjacent properties are zoned R-8 and located along the shoreline of Lake Washington. The existing shoreline consists ofa concrete bulkhead along the shoreline. The lakebed consists of sand and gravel. Drainage conditions are not applicable to this project. There will not be any change to the existing use of the property. The scope of the project entails construction of a three hundred fifteen (315) SF pier, sixty-five (65) in length from OHWM and the assembly of a pre manufactured marine grade aluminum boatlift. The pier construction will be accomplished by driving eight (8) four (4) inch diameter galvanized steel piles via a barge mounted drop hammer pile driving system. The boatlift assembly will be accomplished with common hand tools. The boatlift will be assembled on the barge, and moored on Lake Washington during the construction. All construction materials will be stored on board the barge. The time to complete construction of the pier and installation of the boatlift is ten (10) to fifteen (15) days. No job shack is needed. No off site improvements, excavation or fill are proposed for this project. No trees are to be removed, no land will be dedicated to the city, and no modifications are requested. No existing residential units will have an obstructed view because of this project. The cost of pier and boatlift and the fair market value of the project is $32,300.00. 16412 :N'E 10tn <Place • tBellewe, U'asliington 98008-3707 • <Plume: (425) 957-9381 • e-mail: gre9@sliore£ine-penr,ittintJ.com • If you have any questions regarding your permits, please do not hesitate to call.

An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the City identify impacts from your proposal ( and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. The City uses this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply." Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions as best as you can. If you have any questions, please ask the Planning staff for assistance. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans, and programs), the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the project and site. There are several questions later in this checklist that ask you to describe certain aspects of your proposal. You do not need to repeat those answers on this page. (Lead agencies may modify this form to include additional specific infonnation on project description). Construct a 65' long 315 SF f"ixed pile pier and install a free standing portable boatlift. 12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township and range if known.

I understand this information was requested by City of Renton staff at the pre- application meeting (Shoreline Substantial Development Permit #PRE08-101} held on October 30, 2008. As per your direction, the analysis is qualitative in nature and appropriate for the City's environmental review of a lake shoreline project governed by Shoreline Master Plan (SMP} regulations (RMC 4-3-090}. The analysis focuses on assessment of potential impacts to federal and state protected species occurring in the vicinity. Much of the information found in this letter was obtained from the Environmental Supporl Document for RGP-3 Application, Provost Pier Development Project (EcoPacific 2008). As part of the RGP-3 investigation, EcoPacific conducted a reconnaissance survey of the project and vicinity on September 10, 2008. Also, a data search and review were conducted for the south end of Lake Washington using the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW} Priority Habitats & Species (PHS) Polygon Database. · PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site is located on the east side of Lake Washington, in the City of Renton. The full property address/description is 3707 Lake Washington Boulevard, Renton, 98056; Parcel 3342700260, NE Quarter, Section 31, Township 24, Range 5, Willamette Meridian, in King County. The proposed project would involve installation of a 315 square foot fixed pier with eight, 8-inch diameter steel piles. The first pair of piles would be located about 19 feet lakeward of the Ordinary High Water (OHW} elevation of 21.85 feet (USACOE Locks Datum). The pier would extend 65 feet from shore to a depth of approximately 10 feet below OHW. The bottom of the pier deck would be at least 1.5 feet above OHW. Caps and stringers would be constructed of wood treated with ammoniacal copper zinc arsenate (AC"ZA}. Decking would composed of grated deck panels (ThruFlow® brand). The project would also involve installation of single, free standing boatlift adjacent to the proposed pier. The boatlift would be a solar charged hydraulic lift of marine-grade aluminum construction. The boatlift would be approximately 10 feet in length and 10 feet wide. The landward side of the lift would be at a depth of approximately 7.5 feet below the OHW. The pier and boatlift would be installed in compliance with design guidelines and conservation measures specified in the following USACE regulatory documents: 2001183 AVE NE • REDMOND, WA 98052 • (425) 7 46-5481 • EcoPaciflc@seaneLoom Provost Pier -Biological Imp 1alysis Page2 • Proposed Regional General Permit 3 -Construction of New or Modification of Existing Residential Overwater Structures and Installation of Moorage Piling in Lake Washington, Lake Sammamish, the Sammamish River and Lake Union, Including the Lake Washington Ship Canal. March 7, 2005. • Regional General Permit 1 -Watercraft Lifts in Fresh and Marine/Estuarine Waters within the State of Washington. February 14, 2005 (revised January 29, 2007). AFFECTED ENVIRONMENT The property lies within a fully developed area within the City of Renton. Single-family plots with 40 to 60 ft of waterfront dominate the shoreline. Backyard I shoreline conditions vary, but many properties have little native riparian vegetation present and bulkheads and piers are common. The lake littoral habitat is expected to have minimal amount of structural complexity consistent with a developed site (armored shoreline with little overhanging vegetation and submerged woody debris). No notable areas of undeveloped natural shoreline are located within the immediate vicinity. The closest permanent stream entering the lake is May Creek, approximately .3 miles to the north. Federally protected fish species in the Lake Washington include Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), steelhead (0. mykiss) and bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus). Chinook smelts from the Cedar River are likely to migrate by the site in large numbers on a seasonal basis and may linger in the area for feeding or for seeking refuge. Steelhead and bull trout are likely to be infrequent visitors in the site vicinity. Sockeye salmon (0. nerl<a) in Lake Washington are protected under the jurisdiction of WOFW. All life stages of sockeye can be found in the lake and they are known to be spawn within beach gravels in the general vicinity of the project site. However, no evidence of sockeye beach spawning (i.e., a depression that could be a spawning redd) was identified along the site shoreline during the September survey. Priority habitat data from WDFW identifies two osprey (Pandion haliaetus) nests north of May Creek and bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) nests to the south (Cedar river) and to the northwest (Mercer Island). However, none of these recorded nests were located near the project site (< .5 miles). Neither bird species were observed in the vicinity during the September survey. POTENTIAL IMPACTS AND LIKELY SIGNIFICANCE Construction of in-water structures such as piers and boatlifts has the •potential" to cause both direct and indirect adverse effects on protected species. At the Provost site, the greatest potential for impacts is expected to occur for migrating salmon smelts, especially Chinook. Primary potential impacts would include the following: • Increased water turbidity (shoreline erosion and sediment suspension) during the construction period could temporarily disturb feeding activities. Water quality could also be impaired by the slow release of contaminants from treated wood used for new above- water structures (caps and stringers). Eco Pacific Provost Pier -Biological Imp nalysis Page 3 • Pile driving would temporarily introduce noise and vibration that could disrupt feeding activity or cause avoidance movements away from the site. • Increased shading of the lake bottom could reduce abundance of available prey organisms (aquatic invertebrates) for fish by decreasing plant growth. Shading could also interfere witlYbehavior and migration patterns of juvenile salmon. • The presence of new underwater structures could increase predation on juvenile salmon by providing cover for predator fish species such as smallmouth and largemouth bass. • The presence of new underwater structures could enhance nesting habitat for bass and thus increase predation pressure on juvenile salmon. • The presence of new underwater structures could disrupt water I sediment transport patterns and accelerate beach erosion or increase availability of spawning habitat for predator fish species such as smallmouth bass. • Increased boat usage of the site could result in increased disturbance (sediment resuspension, water pollution, etc) of the shallow fish habitat. For the proposed Provost project, compliance with USACE Regional General Permits 1 and 3 would insure that all of these impacts would be reduced to levels that are considered negligible (i.e., insignificant). Primary features and conservation measures incorporated into the project are listed below. Design Features: • The proposed action would add 315 square feet of over-water structure to the existing condition. However, use of narrow walkways and grating for light passage would ensure shading effects are mitigated as much as possible. Moreover, the bottom of the new pier would be at least 1.5 feet above OHW and no deck skirting is proposed. • Eight new piles would be installed. Narrow eight-inch steel piles would be used to limit impacts to migrating smolts and no piles would be installed within 15 feet of OHW. • No finger piers or mooring piles would be installed. • ACZA wood treatment for caps and stringers would be in compliance with Western Wood Preservers Institute (WWPI) standards for above-water application. As a result, the potential for leaching of contaminants into the water column would be negligible. Construction Methods and Timing: • Construction and staging of materials and equipment would be conducted using a barge to minimize shoreline soil disturbance and associated degradation of water quality. The barge would not be allowed to ground on the beach. • If a droi>-hammer pile driver is used, sound attenuation measures would include use of a bubble curtain (100% pile perimeter coverage), or a block of word at least 6" thick placed between the pile driver and the pile. II EcoPacific Provost Pier -Biological lmpa alysis Page4 • Removal of vegetation on shoreline and new planting would be carried under controlled conditions (see Environmental Support Document -Shoreline Planting Plan) • Floating sill curtains would be deployed in the lake around the construction operation where practicable to control dispersion of any accidental short-term disturbance of sediments. • All construction debris would be removed from the site and properly disposed of on land. • In-water construction would be conducted between July 16 and December 31, thus largely avoiding potential construction impacts to listed fish species. Additional timing restrictions could be imposed by WDFW (Hydraulic Project Approval) to protect beach spawning sockeye salmon if deemed necessary. Shoreline Habitat Enhancement: • The site is already developed, with existing in-water structures and bank armoring; therefore, it provides low quality foraging and rearing habitat relative to more undeveloped areas of the lake. • A site-specific Shoreline Planting Plan (SPP) has been developed. This involves removal of non-native vegetation and planting of native riparian plants, and ongoing maintenance and monitoring. Non-native shoreline vegetation would be removed and over 41 O square feet of native vegetation would be installed along much of the shoreline. Plantings would include trees, willows, and an assortment of shrubs, groundcover, and emergents. These plantings would enhance erosion protection; provide over-water shade; and supply leaf litter, detritus, insects, and woody debris to the lake's littoral fringe. Implementation of the SPP would improve local habitat quality and thus provide offsets for potential negative impacts of the new in-water structures.
