Specifically, which "old channel" are you referring to? At the present time there is no P-1 Channel, the only existing channels are the Black River Channel and the Springbrook Channel. The proposal will leave the Black River Channel basically intact, while the Springbrook Channel will be relocated to the alignment of the proposed P-1 Channel. Referrence is made to "reclaiming". the old channel with natural landscaping material. If._ the ."present alignment" of the Springbrook Channel is intended to be reclaimed, the question is to what it is to be reclaimed to. The only plans submitted as present suggest that it would be reclaimed to industrial lands in Phase 2 of Earlington Park. Therefore, it would appear that reclaiming with "natural landscaping materials" is inappropriate. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant seeks approval of a special permit for fill and grade for development of flood control facilities for the Soil Conservation Service Green River Eastside Watershed Project (Phase I) to include a holding pond and a portion of the P-1 Channel . Construction of the Phase I project will realign both the Black River and Springbrook Creeks between Grady Way and the Black River Pump Station. If implemented, the current Springbrook Creek Channel located southerly of S.W. 7th Street will be abandoned. SUMMARY OF ACTION: Planning Department Recommendation: Approval with conditions. Hearing Examiner Decision: Approval with conditions. PLANNING DEPARTMENT The Planning Department preliminary report was received by the REPORT: Examiner on August 6, 1981 . PUBLIC HEARING: . After reviewing the Planning Department report, examining available information on file with the application, and field checking the property and surrounding area, the Examiner conducted a public hearing on the subject as follows: The hearing was opened on August 11 , 1981 at 9:07 a.m. in the Council Chambers of the Renton Municipal Building. Parties wishing to testify were affirmed by the Examiner. It was reported that the Hearing Examiner and the applicant had received and reviewed the Planning Department preliminary report. Roger Blaylock, Associate Planner, presented the report, and entered the following exhibits into the record: Exhibit #1 : Application File containing Planning Department report and other pertinent documents • Exhibit #2: Aerial Photograph of Subject Site with staff comments Exhibit #3: Typical Cross Section of Storage Pond Exhibit #4: Typical Cross Section of Channel The Examiner reported that an Environmental Impact Statement was prepared for the Federal Government by the Soil Conservation Service. Mr. Blaylock corrected Section C. , History/ Background, of. the Planning Department report to indicate that the channel has not been previously rezoned. He also corrected Section F.1 , Public Services, to denote that the trunk line has been modified. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding potential plans for provision of a trail system, David Clemens, Acting Planning Director, stated that the SCS proposal does not call for any recreational aspects to be implemented at the time of initial construction of this development. However, the channel design is such that future activity by either the City or County Park and Recreation Departments could accommodate linear walkways and similar activities. Referencing Section L.6 of the report, which states that a hydraulics permit was issued i� in June, Mr. Blaylock indicated that permit application has occurred but has not yet been I; issued. i. I The Examiner requested testimony by a representative of King County. Responding was: Herbert W. Young Project Engineer, King County Dept. of Public Works Surface Water Management Division SP-060-81 Page Two 976 King County Administration Building Seattle, WA 98104 Mr. Young clarified that although it is true to a large extent that existing natural habitat will be required to be removed, plans call for no excavation on the existing bank on the north side of the Black River and the northeast area adjacent to the riparian forest, thereby permitting existing habitat to remain untouched. Responding to the Examiner's comment regarding the City Council 's prior action and the fact there is no financing available for the project, Mr. Young indicated that although a written response has not been received by the county from the city, the Council 's previous attitude may change due to reduction in cost estimates for Phase I construction as a result of dedications of property at no cost to the county. He advised that the only remaining major expense would be for ultimate disposal of materials not suitable for structural fill , although an exact cost figure is unknown. Mr. Clemens clarified that in its last action, the City Council had directed city staff to work with property owners to provide a project package to meet both requirements of flood protection and the property owners to minimize costs. Currently, the majority of the property owners in question have agreed to the dedication, including First City Equities, of which dedication of a portion of the right-of-way within the platted areas was required as a condition of the preliminary plat review. Mr. Clemens discussed other properties which will be dedicated for the purpose of the project, owned by Belterra Corporation, Metro, and Burlington Northern Railroad Company in addition to First City Equities property. He noted that local sponsors must obtain property through dedication or purchase, easements must be obtained for temporary disposal of excavated material , and an agreement drawn between the project sponsors and the Soil Conservation Service for the actual construction of the first phase of the project. The Examiner inquired if all required land has been obtained. Mr. Clemens advised that Phase I would consist of the four previously mentioned properties with the largest area required owned by First City Equities. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding alternative methods for providing flood control for the' area, Mr. Clemens advised that he is unaware of other methods, and he explained flood storage capacity which is necessary for the first phase. Responding to the Examiner's inquiry regarding timing and completion of• the project, Mr. Young indicated that completion should occur by the end of 1982, barring financial problems. • The Examiner requested testimony in support or opposition to the application. Since no further comments were offered, the Examiner closed the public hearing at 9:42 a.m. FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS & DECISION: Having reviewed the record in this matter, the Examiner now and enters the following: FINDINGS: 1 . The request is for a special permit to allow the applicant to fill , grade and excavate approximately 500,000 cubic yards of material on about 35 acres. 2. The application file containing the application, SEPA documentation, the Planning Department report, and other pertinent documents was entered into the record as Exhibit #1 . 3. Pursuant to the City of Renton's Environmental Ordinance and the State Environmental Policy Act of 1971 , R.C.W. 43.21 .C. , as amended, and the National Environmental Policy Act, draft, final and supplemental Environmental Impact Statements were prepared for the subject proposal . 4.. Plans for the proposal have been reviewed by all city departments affected by the impact of this development. 5. The subject site is bounded by the Black River Channel , Springbrook Creek, 1-405, the Metro Treatment Plant and Monster Road. The site is essentially level and is intersected by the waterways forming its boundaries. The site is covered principally with scrub brush, blackberries and some deciduous trees. 6. The purpose of the subject proposal is to provide flood control to the portions of the Green River Valley southerly of the subject site. Springbrook Creek would be relocated and a large retention/detention pond would be carved out of the subject site to serve a storage or holding pond. A deeper channel would be located within the pond to provide r a continously flowing channel to accommodate fish runs up Springbrook Creek. 7. The excavated material may or may not be entirely reutilized on or near the subject site. Total removal of the approximately 500,000 cubic yards would require approximately 20,000 truck trips. Dredge spoils will be dewatered on site. Reuse will ultimately SP-OL„ _1 Page Four DECISION: The special permit to fill , excavate and grade approximately 35 acres for flood control is approved subject to the following conditions: 1 . The acquisition of funds to allow the applicant to mitigate all adverse impacts of the construction on fish and wildlife habitat as called for in the Soil Conservation Service Agreement and the EIS and to allow the restoration of all areas upon which dredge spoils have been deposited. 2. Procurement of all permits necessary from the Washington State Departments of Game, Fisheries and Ecology. 3. Execution of leases, easements or other legal agreements allowing either temporary or permit storage of dredged spoils. 4. Compliance with the conditions specified by the Police Department if the spoils are removed to remote locations. 5. The posting of a bond of not less than $2,000 to allow city crews to clear the streets of project generated debris if the applicant fails to keep the roads clean. ORDERED THIS 25th day of August, 1981 . 'I4.9 Fred J. Ka .'CO man Land Use Hearing Examiner TRANSMITTED THIS 25th day of August, 1981 by Affidavit of Mailing to the parties of record: Herbert W. Young, Project Engineer, King County Dept. of Public Works, Surface Water Management Division, 976 King County Administration Building, Seattle, WA 98104 TRANSMITTED THIS 25th day of August, 1.981 to the following: Mayor Barbara Y. Shinpoch Councilman Richard M. Stredicke Richard Houghton, Acting Public Works Director David Clemens, Acting Planning Director Michael Porter, Planning Commission Chairman Barbara Schellert, Planning Commissioner Ron Olson, Building Official Lawrence J. Warren, City Attorney Pursuant to Title IV, Section 3015 of the City's Code, request for reconsideration must be filed in writing on or before September 8, 1981 . Any aggrieved person feeling that the decision of the Examiner is based on erroneous procedure, errors of law or fact, error in judgment, or the discovery of new evidence which could not be reasonably available at the prior hearing may make a written request for review by the Examiner within fourteen (14) days from the date of the Examiner's decision. This request shall set forth the specific errors relied upon 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, Section 3016, which requires that such appeal be filed with the City Clerk accompanying a filing fee of $25.00 and meeting other specified requirements. Copies of this ordinance are available for inspection in the Finance Department, first floor of City Hall , or same may be purchased at cost in said department. SP-uoJ-81 Page Three depend on the quality of the material for load bearing purposes and its applicability for other in-filling purposes. Some of the spoils may be used by Metro in grading and filling on property to the west of the subject site. Also spoils will be placed on Burlington Northern )property but no easement has been executed at this time to permit such placement. .8. A mitigation agreement requires that the area be restored to a natural appearance and use. Included in mitigation are plantings along streams and conversion of the holding pond to a wetland character. 9. The subject area is zoned G (General ; Single Family Residential ; Minimum lot size - 35,000 square feet) and M-P (Manufacturing Park),. 10. The various impacts of the proposal have been thoroughly reviewed in the environmental documents; including the social , economic and environmental impacts. 4 Permits must be approved by the Washington State Game and Fisheries Department as well as the Department of Ecology. 12. Removal of the spoils from the site will require about 60 .to 80 trips per day over a period of about 14 to 18 months. The Police Department recommended that a bond be posted to provide for continued street cleaning as needed, route selection to minimize interference with other traffic, and limitation on days and hours of operation (7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. , weekdays only) . 13. Fund.ing for the project is still uncertain. Much of the land in the immediate area will be dedicated for the project. In addition, 70 acres of wetland must be preserved outside the immediate project area as a mitigation measure for the loss of habitat. CONCLUSIONS: 1 . The proposed special permit appears to serve the public use and, interest. The project is to excavate, fill and grade large portions of the subject area in order to provide flood control and water storage potential to prevent flooding of portions of the eastern section of the Green River Valley. 2. The project will have certain positive effects which are to enhance the development capability of the areas south and east of the subject site by minimizing flood potential. The site will both temporarily impound flood waters and slowly pump and release them after large floods. The creek and holding pond will provide a permanent channel in which the ordinary flow of Springbrook Creek will be accommodated. 3. The mitigation measures outlined within the EIS and the Soil Conservation Service Agreement will provide a natural area along both sides of the channel and surrounding the holding pond. The pond shall be restored to wetland characteristics and fish passage shall be provided in a deep channel running through the pond to provide all season flow. 4. The applicant will have to reclaim the old channel and landscape it with natural landscaping material . 5. Permits must be secured from various state agencies. 6.. Since funding for the project is still uncertain, the permit shall be subject to such funding becoming a reality. The proposal and its mitigating measures must all be accomplished in order to provide both a safe and secure flood control project and an environmentally sound project which mitigates the potential loss of wildlife habitat and fisheries habitat. Similarly, funding must be secured to provide for reclamation and resurfacing of all areas affected by the project. 7. The applicant must also provide for a permanent method of disposing of the dredge spoils whether such method be on site or off site. The applicant must also secure an easement for the temporary storage of spoils on any property not within its legal control . 8. The removal of spoils from the vicinity will require approximately 20,000 truck trips or 60-80 trips per day with a great impact on roads and traffic in the area. Therefore, the truck traffic shall be subject to review and approval of the Police Department. A bond must be posted in an amount not less than $2,000 to permit the clearing of the roadway of debris by city crews if necessary and at the discretion of the Police Department. I . -me?

PLANNING DEPOT ANALYSIS: 1 . The proposal is generally consistent with the Compre- hensive Plan designation of Manufacturing Park in that it provides a necessary public service for flood control without which the development of designated industrial areas in the Green River Valley could not occur. The Comprehensive Plan specifically recognizes this facility at a slightly altered alignment and location. 2. The proposal complies with the Green River Valley Comprehensive Plan and the East, Side Green River Watershed Project. 3. The proposal is a public service and would comply with the existing G zoning. 4 . The proposal is to create a holding pond along \ with the first segment of the P-1 Channel. Approxi- mately 500, 000 cubic yards of material will have , to be removed from the site. The spoils may be deposited between the southern edge of the holding pond and the northern edge of the dike surrounding the METRO Treatment Plant. This would raise the ground level approximately 10 feet. METRO is discussing with King County the possibility of placing some of the higher quality spoils within the diked area. This would require further public hearings under a new application before the Hearing Examiner. The placement of materials on the adjacent properties is primarily of a temporary nature to dewater the spoils. Quality fill will be immediately reused in permanent locations requiring future hearings pursuant to the Mining, Excavation and Grading Ordinance. However, some portion of the spoils could be of such high peat content that they would be removed from the area. Since the location of the ultimate disposal is still unknown, review of how, when and where the permanent disposal will be accomplished should be required prior to the completion of the project (December, 1982) . 5. The design calls for a minimum 20 foot. vegetational buffer around the project in addition to the Black River Riparian Forest to the north and could incor- porate buffer areas although not a part of this proposal. Plantings are required in the holding pond and channel; however, exact design is dependent upon future maintenance and operational conditions. • The mitigation agreement for the project requires the holding pond to attain a wetland character with the channels restoring a tree canopy lost along Springbrook Creek by encroaching urban devel- opment. Maintenance dredging will probably become necessary in the future. 6. The fisheries resources will be protected in the low flow of the, summertime by use of an 8-foot wide fishway. The Washington State Department of Fisheries and Game issued the hydraulics permit on June 18, 1981 , and the Department of Ecology granted approval on June 16, 1981 .

Dear Mr. Blaylock: %% D !' We are returning herewith completed copies of the Special and Shoreline Permit forms sent to us with your letter of 24 June. As Mr. Herb Young discussed with you by phone, certain land ownership information will have to follow, because we are still in the process of acquiring the necessary property. Eight copies are inclosed of a vicinity map, an aerial photo-plan, cross- sections, and typical cross-sections of a preliminary landscaping plan provided by the Soil Conservation Service. In regard to the last, it must be noted that the landscaping plan has not been approved by SCS, and there is a question of possible interference with flow by some of the in-channel plantings shown. However, the drawings do indicate the direction of intent so far as landscaping is concerned. Landscaping would be accomplished under a separate contract to follow excavation. The drawings do not show where excavated materials would be placed as this matter is still open to negotiation. Preferably, the material would be placed throughout the area bounded by the holding pond, the P-1 channel , the Metro dike, and Monster Road. The ground level in this area would be raised about 10 feet, providing a base for construction of the Valley Park- way, First City Equities development, and northward expansion of the Metro treatment plant. Disposal plans will be furnished as they become finalized. An existing 12-inch water line south of the holding pond would have to be lowered where crossed by the P-1 channel . A letter has been sent to Mr. Ron Olson, Renton Public Works Department, requesting permission to arrange for this in connection with Phase 1 construction. Please advise if additional information is required. The project is in the interest of all entities in the Green River Valley, and we appreciate your making this review before all elements of the plan are in place. Sincerely, DA ID A.
