1. Introduction
AquaTechnex was contacted by the City of Renton to submit a scope of work and
cost estimates for controlling Eurasian Water Milfoil at Coulon Swim Beach/Boat
Launch, Kennydale Park, and Wiley Post Memorial Seaplane Base. Eurasian
Watermilfoil in a Class B Noxious weed in Washington State. Aggressive growth of
milfoil can form dense mats that can be a safety hazard to swimmers and also
negatively impact other beneficial uses of the Renton properties including boat and
plane traffic.
AquaTechnex has years of experience in completing treatments targeting milfoil at
the City of Renton properties and for many other clients on Lake Washington. Our
biologists have also completed training to receive Pro-certification in the use of
ProcellaCor, a systemic herbicide that is highly effective against Eurasian
Watermilfoil. ProcellaCor has is one of very few products that have received
Reduced Risk classification from the EPA due to its excellent ecotoxicity profile.
Application of Procellacor requires 40-1 00x less active ingredient than other
products used to target milfoil and does not require water use restrictions on
potable water usage of recreational water contact after application.
2.Prevailing Wage Exemption
We have received a ruling from the Washington Department of Labor and Industries
that the application of aquatic herbicides to waters of the state is not "a
construction or maintenance of a public work" and we are exempt from prevailing
wage regulations. Please see the ruling attached from Land I.
3.Aqu atic Plant and Algae Management General Permit Tasks
Task 1: Permit Modification to add Wiley Post Memorial Seaplane Base.
In order to add another treatment area to the current NP DES Aquatic Plant and
Algae Management General Permit currently held by the City of Renton,
AquaTechnex will complete the modification by editing treatment area information
and sending new treatment area maps to the Department of Ecology. The
modification to the permit coverage will trigger the public notice requirements and
30-day public comment period. AquaTechnex will complete the Public Notice
requirements as required in the APAM permit to include the following:
•Publish the public notice twice, one week apart, in a local newspaper of
general circulation.
Page 1 of 3
•Mail or deliver the public notice to all potentially affected waterfront
residents (those within one-quarter mile in each direction along the shoreline
or across the water from proposed treatment areas) within one week of
publishing the first newspaper notice.
•Mail or deliver the public notice to the Washington State Department of
Natural Resources (DNR) at d___Drreais _@dnr.wa.gov.
•Mail or deliver the public notice for permit coverages in Water Resource
Inventory Areas 7 (Snohomish), 8 (Cedar/Sammamish), and 9
(Duwamish/Green) to Nao...c__y_.B.apin(cumuckleshoot.nsn_.us.
Task 2: Business and Residential Notification.
AquaTechnex will complete a mailing of the notice describing project information to
all waterfront residences and businesses within one-quarter mile in each direction
along the waterbody shoreline or across the water from proposed treatment areas.
Permit requirements for the Business an_d residential notice are as follows:
•Using Template provided in APAM permit, AquaTechnex will create and attach
required postage stamps to a postcard to be mailed to potentially affected
shoreline residents and businesses at least 1 O days in advance and at most
42 days prior to first treatment.
•Business and residential notices for permit coverages in Water Resource
Inventory Areas 7 (Snohomish), 8 (Cedar/Sammamish), and 9
(Duwamish/Green) must be sent to �-anc¼R@LtJ..@muckles_hoot,nsn.LLs.
•The Permittee must email to Ecology, at apampreposttreat@ecy.wa.gov, a
copy of the notice, the date of distribution, and a list of addresses that the
notice was delivered to, no later than one business day following public
distribution. The Permittee must email a copy of the notice, including the
date of distribution, to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) at
dnrreais@dnr.wa.gov no later than one business day following public
distribution.
Task 3: Pre-Treatment Shoreline Posting.
AquaTechnex will create shoreline signs using templates from the Department of
Ecology that contain relevant project information. The posters will be placed
according to guidelines described in the APAM permit no more than 48 hours prior to
treatment. Park staff can remove signs at the end of the period of water use
restriction. Shoreline posting includes the following:
Page 2 of 3
EXHIBIT A: AquaTechnex-Renton Agreement
•8 ½ by 11 inch signs will be posted at privately or public-owned shoreline
areas withing 400 feet of treated area.
•Two foot by three foot signs will be posted at public access areas within 400
feet of a treated area and all public boat launches that are within one-quarter
mile of a treated area.
Task 4: Pre and Post Treatment Notification and Annual Reporting
•AquaTechnex will email pre-and post-treatment information to Ecology each
week that treatment occurs using the form included in the APAM permit.
•AquaTechnex will also submit its Annual Treatment and Monitoring report
through ecologies online data management system prior to December 31 st of
each year.
4.Eurasian Wat ermilfoil Treatment Tasks
Task 1: Equipment Calibration and Mobilization to Project Site.
Using provided maps, AquaTechnex biologists will determine the correct dosage to
effectively treat Eurasian Watermifoil at each site. We will then determine a boat
travel speed and calibrate our spray equipment to deliver a certain gallons/minute
to allow for complete coverage of the treatment area. Equipment and personnel will
mobilize to each project site and begin application.
Task 2: ProcellaCor Application
AquaTechnex will use a boat equipped with GPS equipment that displays treatment
polygons to uniformly apply herbicide. Treatment boats are equipped with gas or
electric powered spray equipment that injects herbicide into the water column via
weighted drop houses. Once treatment is completed, the herbicide is absorbed into
plant tissues very quickly and will be affected within a few days and completely fall
out within 1-2 weeks.
