Dear Alex Morganroth:
The King County Wastewater Treatment Division (WTD) has received the Notice of Application and
Public Hearing for the PR24-000064 NWR South 23-25 Pavement Repair project (LUA24-000287)
that the applicant, WSDOT, is requesting a noise variance in order to exceed the nighttime between
the hours of 10pm and 7am) noise limits in RMC 8-7. The applicant is seeking the ability to operate
equipment on two (2) state highways ( SR 167 and SR 515) that exceeds maximum noise limits for
nighttime work in the Class A Environmental Designations for Noise Abatement ( EDNA) noise
zone, which includes parcels of land developed with residential uses ( i.e. single family homes,
apartments, condos, etc). According to the applicant, construction would occur between April 1,
2025 and December 31, 2025.
A King County facility, the Eastside Interceptor 1 is located roughly 15 feet below ground
surface at the project site. (See enclosed record drawing showing the location of the facility in
the project vicinity).
In order to protect this wastewater facility during construction, WTD requires that City of Renton
and WDOT submit construction drawings for the project, so that WTD can assess its potential
impacts. Please send drawings to:
