In general the tributary arcs upstrcum of the Watershed can • he cla,:,rd as gently railing. The watershed itself in:dudes two relotively steep ravines, dcn vcly forested with mixed conifers and deciduous trues. In the newly platted rertdent- 11 ial aru4s !.urround.u,l the watershed there are yard improve- menu but few trees, in general the soils are classified(1) as the A.lderwond series whi,•h consists of several inches of forest 1'tter over a friab,c surrace ;oil which in turn is underlain by a dcntic glacial. drift soil. (1) At the Springbruok {iaturshcd itself the soils ere classified as rough broken and stony land. This type of material char- acteristically occupies the steep terrain along breaks, ravines and gullies. The soil is derived from the adjacent upland soils,. � 1, • uu l�rn,,l.f�l !?acing and after heavy rainstorm, on February j7 and 2.9, # i,. , considerable fl.wul damage occurred at the.

The re- • hultinh, runoff ,ub,taatially saturated all available ground in the vicinity of S. L. 200th Street and 102nd Avenue S. L. the ertromely heavy rundff was caused by the heavy ralnfull • au6 was compounded L,; two other factors. Land development � 2. in the area had reduced the ability of the ground to absorb water by covering; large areas with paving and structures. Phis caused runoff to he more rapid and consequently larger. Secondly in two cases storm water wa, partially diverted from uutural water courses. Our investigation consisted of field work, convorsations with adjacent property owners, and office computations. Tile investigation utilized field survey work as well as dotailod rainfull intensity duta secured from the National Climatic Center at Asheville, North Carolina - See Appendix I 'rhe investigution is divided into four units: 1. Natural Causes 2. Diversions from Natural Drainage 3. Runoff problems w'thin the Watershed A. Ilydraulic Computations 1 . Natural Causes Hie surface soil in t � upland drainage area is classified under the Alderwood series. In the USDA soil survey tile drainage characteristics were noted as follows: "Surface drainage is sufficient, however, internal movement is great- ly retarded by the cemented substratum. Waterlogging fre- • 3. • quently occurs at the surface of the induratud material • in Winter and early Spring." 'free roots mat horizontally due to the hardnes of t!cn substratum and generally pene- tration is restricted to 3 feet. 'file permeability of the • soil ranges from 0.63 to 2.0 inches of water per hour as noted in a recent USDA study. Tho foregoing items coupled with the heavy rainfall involved provided a saturated con- • ditiva throughout the drainage area. When a high intensity rainfall occurred on February 28 the resulting extremely high runoff caused considerable damage in the waterslh_d. • 2. Diversions from Natural Drainage The basic problem area involved was at Point 1 shown on Alap 2. Heavy flows of storm water from the residential areas lying Soutluasterly resulted in water bypassing the intended drain point - the storm manhole at Point I. The existing roadway truss sections showed that s arm flows by- passed the manhole and proceeded both acru.s S. E. 200th Street and Westerly on thru the grade break. Photos 15 4 In showed that a substantial flow bypassed the N11 and flow- ed westerly on the South side of S. E. 200th Street. photos and survey data also verified that this flow was di- • • 4. vetted to the North side of S. L. 200th Street at approx- nately Survey Station •1 10. This flow ultimately arrived at Pt. 2 rcmovinl; considerable gravel from the North shoulder of t. lie 200th and leaving it spread on the .adjacent field. The water then flowed Northerly overland into the lrztershed causing severe damage. When the Springbrool school was opened, 10Uth Avenue S. C. was protected by placing ditch- ing and culverting oil the hest side of the then existing gravel road between S. 1:. 20001 Street and the South property line. At same point in tune storm water flow was diverted Northerly fruwa araas norm❑lly dr;,iniug Wv,tcrly at s, I.. 204th Street and 100th Avenuo S. E. A portion ul this diverted flow from the rvsidcntial area lying S. F. of the intersection also found it; way to Point 2 by the new ditch and culvertin.- in the West side of 100th Avenue S. U. The storm water cascading P+vsterly down the hill along S. L. 200th Street and all the waiter from the South concentrated at Point 2. The flow con- centration was so great that it physically removed the surface soil causing large and small trees to topple in the forested are4 lying above the dam on the Watershed property. See Photos 22 and 29. The soil rewove oas washed down the creek and � s. completely filled the first catchment dam. See Photos bufore and after. (2 ;ind 46) Once the catchment dam was full all further uahris wan trapped by the main dam, See Appendix 3 for approximate chronology of events. 3. Runoff within the Watershed The Springhrook Wat-•rshed is a 53 acre tract used by the Kenton Water Department as a water supply collection area. The water system improvements existing prior to February 1972 included, the upper collector dams, connecting culverts, lowor dani, supply pipvlinos and chlorinator station. The upper collector dams are concrete cut off walls which confine and collect both surface and underground water. The lower dam is eartlifill with a reinforced concrete face. The dam also intercept> and collocts both surface and under- ground water and tit addition pruvidos an estimated nalf million gallons of water storage. The dam has an overflow which protects the dam from being overtopped. When water ribos abuye the level of the over- flow weir it will be diverted through two 121, pipes back to the downstream stream bed. The weir has an overflow capacity of approximately 17 efs. The top of the dam is approximately 6. foot higher than the %air tnp :md this in turn represents ,tpprO.ILmately aIhtc feet of %afar sturage available before orertoppin,, will occur. The eftect of the dam is to ;uo% tda holding capacity for short duration high runoff and :his then reduces the pwk flu%;; do.dnatream of the dan. fhc average rate of di-,rharge of water into the City water syitem is 2 MGD. 13 ef>1 4. Hydraulic Computations i See ,lppondi.x L i ln1NC I IS l0i;6 1. 'fhc extremely high runoff in the area was caused by: .i) Gxtrouely hido precipitation a, shown in .Appendix 2 b) Permeability and retentive capacity of the soil has baen reduced by land development caustug a more ' rapid rluluf t. e) At the tine of peak, rainfall the permeability and rotcnttvc capactty of the suil had been reduced by saturation of the soil by prior rainfall. dl Drainugc structures have diverted flow from natural drainage to Puiat 2 wllerc it then entet.d the Water- shed by overland flow. 2. At the time of peak runoff an ondetnrmilled flow traveled from Point 1 to Point 2 Westerly along and par,I1101 to • 5, F. 2DUth 'c;tteot . 'rItiv flotr which is contrary to natural drainage occurred heGaUSe the extremely high run- off euuecnttated at point 1 was unable to flow Northerly • into Ilatural drain:Il;.e due to the restriction of a cuivart tlllet sL I4,,tU I'C. 3, barrage in the 4:atcr;hcd vas caused by the flow from i • Point 2 which entered the Watershed by overland travel. 4. Damage to the Watershed would have been far less exten- sive if flow had not entered at Point 2 but instead had • entered natural drainage at Point 1. S. The combrn.•d effect of the collector dams and the lower dam was to reduca the runoff in the natural stream below • the Watershed. The luwer dam was not overtopped. The lower dam acted as a containment structure and prevented debris from entering the natural stream. • b. Uuring the period of high runoff fine suspended silt and debris was probably curried through the dam and out the overflow to the natural stream. This would have • created a milky appearance in the stream. Water which is normally withdrawn into the City system was diverted into the stream due to the appearance of • silt in the water. 'Phis diversion did not significantly contribute to the problem duc to the relatively small • YOIUdC in comparison to total runoff and also due to the fata that the diversiun did not occur unt ; l 4 to 5 hours after time of peak flow. • • • 9.. • S. With continuing Jeecloprarnt of land, rapid :storm water runoff will continue to cause similar problums when # heavy rainfall occurs. The must practical solution will be: 1) Careful Jasign of storm facilities upstream of the watershed, coordinated with the City, so that run- off will remain to its natural drainage, or total diversiou of drainage to protect the watershed • from stoma Jamagu and polluted waters, ?) The design of u.ttural or artificial facilities which restore the watot retentive qualities of the • land. This, will require the cooperation of prop- erty owners anJ the governmental agencies respons- ible for storm drainage planning. • • 1p. Lr` S.E. 192 NO Si. I, • a S.

The percentage goal is accomplished in the following manner: The residency of all permanent City employees is plotted on a regional map, The area containing 110% permanent force is analyzed using existing cnesus and Renton School District data to determine the number and categories of minorities living in this area. Initially all the total minority population was determined at 3',X. This percentage is then applied to the City permanent work force and goals for future minority employment is set accordingly. Additionally, a comparative study is also made with other municipali- ties within the greater Puget Sound area to establish validity of an equitable percentage goal.

As you may be aware, this has been in litigation and 1:<s the subject of an out-of-court settlement with the Gallaghers for damages as a result of the 1972 flood. The City of Renton, King County, and the Kent School District were defendants in this action and Donald J. Gallagher, the Plaintiff. There was no admission of any responsibility on the part of the defendants, anu the out-of-court settlement was agreed to among the parties in order to avoid the necess'ty for the court trial . The City of Rentci basically contends that the Gallaghers ' claim against the City is without merit and teat the City has in fact not operated in an illEgal negligent manner. The City several years ago purchased the property that was issued a permit for a quarry operation, and this area has subsequently revegetated naturally and is now relatively stable and is comparable to other natural slopes In the area. • Mr. Tim Menees Page 2 December 6, 1974 As a result of the 1972 flood, the City of Renton, in an effort to protect its watershed, filed suit against King County and the Kent School District alleging their negligence in the upstream management of waters in this drainage basin,. At the present time the City and t,,. County are in the process of reaching an agreement on the construction of facilities to protect the Renton water supply facilities. This action, however, will have little effect on the downstream problems referred to by Mr. Gallagher. The City and the County do propose in the joint construction of these new facilities to clean out the reservoir, discharge the drainage waters into the reservoir and use it .•s a stilling basin which will hopefully reduce the amount of silt the stream will carry. It is proposed to clean the reservoir fron time to time so that it will continue to be usable as an effective settling basin. It is the City's contention and 1 , as a professional ° engineer having had considerable experience in stream flow of this type in Western Washington, feel that the stream is similar to many other streams; when heavy runoff occurs, there is a substantial amount of erosion, and particulate matter carried by the stream referred to as Ledload, consisting of silts and soils , are carried downstream. This is a natural phenomenon, and the operation of the Springbrook Trout Farm has for years recognized this and has utilized facilities to bypass the heavy flows from the trout ponds. In fact, upon investigatin; their facilities, they ess.)ntially have a settling pond to prevent any substantial amount of the silt and soil Trom entering the fish ponds, i noted on my visit that they were not operating the weirs in this diversion tank in a proper manner; that is, they were allowing tLe water to undershoot the weir instead of flowing over the top, thus creating_ a nigh velocity that would carry the silt directly into the trout ponds. If these weirs were properly operated and maintained and the waters flowed over the top of the weirs, during periods of heavy flow and heavy siltation the weirs would be closed and the waters diverted. The previous owners of the Springbrook Trout Farm operated in this fashion for years satisfactorily. • w Mr. Tim Menees Page 3 becember 6, 1974 Even if the City installed silt-collecting facilities as proposed in the upstream area, the flows downstream from this facility would pick up silt and sano from its own erosive capability and create the same sort of situation that now exists. Therefore, it is our contention 'hat the solution to this problem lies within the Springbrook Trout Farm's own operation and any real corrective action that could be effected would have to be on their premises and with their facilities. The City of Renton lias been cooperative in this matter and will continue to he so; and if we can be of any further assistance in providing information to your readers , we would be pleased to do so.

Based on grades taken from your topographic map, which seems to be very accurate, the following pipe sizes would be required: 640' - 18", 515' - 30", 770' - 36", 290' - 24", two type I catch basins and seven type II catch basins. The estimated cost of the job is sixty eight thousand dollars ($68,000) . The cost for the material using our latest bid prices is twenty t).ree thousand five hundred dollars ($23,500) . For your information a sketch 'lowing a possible location for the stormdrain and the £lc to it is attached. After you have reviewed this you may wish nothcr meeting to discuss it. If you have any questions on this matter please contact Jim McAuliff of my staff at 344-2547. Very tr, y y D. R. HOREY, P COUNT'.

Cile REMARKS: October 21 , 1974 aw Don Gallagher E 1914 Springbrook Trout Farm Q�T 2 9225 Springbro0 Road Renton, Washington •^ " 98055 Mr. Warren Gonnason Renton public Works Director 200 Mill Avenue South Renton, Washington 98055 Dear Mr. Gonrason: During the early morning hours of Sunday, October 20, 1974, the first heavy rainfall of the season occurred in this area resulting in heavy mud conditions in my lower trout ponds. This is a repetition of what occurs during each rainfall for the past two years (each time the mud gets progressively worse) plus a daily accumulation of silt. Attached is a "Letter to the Editor" I sent to the Renton Record Chronicle to express my feelings to anyone that will listen; however, due to the controversial nature of the subject, I doubt very much if the letter will be printed by a local newspaper. I would like to know what, if anything, the City of Renton plans to do to correct the situation and when. Your reply would be appreciated ty November 1, 1974. Sincerely, Don Gallagher Attachment To the Editor: After attending a recent Renton City Planning Commission reetino and City Council meeting, I am amazed at the double standard in use today by the City of Renton. It is heartrendering to listen to the questions raised by the planning corrissiun and city council members of representatives for Washington Natural Gas, Shell Oil Company and Sur' ngton Northern Railroad as to any possiole ecological damage to stream _2ds resulting from their proposed requests for permits. Listening to this interrogation by commission and council members I have ti ask myself do they realize that the`.r own Public Works Department is in violation of just about every ecological ru'e known for stream beds established by various goverrnental agencies. A specific exanple is Springbrook creek which was referred to frequently in the Shell Oil Company hearings. The source of Springbrook creek is lo,ated in a reservoir area (cNned and operated by the City of Renton), one mile south of Valley General Hospital. Water origin,.tes from natural springs in this area supplying the City of Renton with 1,800,000 gallons of drinking water each day. For years the Public Works department extracted fill dirt from the area surrounding the reservoir itself for various city projects requiring fill dirt. All of this excavation was done without any type of permits what- soever. Finally in January, 1972, there was a stop work order issued by King County Building Department. By this time, however, the damage had been done leaving only scars on the onice beautiful landscape. During the first heavy rain ;February, 1972), the hillsides on the east side of the reservoir gave way filling with mud and silty 25. of the reservoir formally holding water. The pressure do this reservoir created a flood condition below washing out parts of the private roadway to the exit at 196th South. The Public Works department repaired the roadway adjoining Springbrook creek by installing a culvert and dumped the dirt from the landslide above the reservoir to repair the roadway below partially covering the culvert. This soil incidentally is the worst kind for use as fill. This action viol.tes every known code. If private industry operated in this same rannr they would to -' :t down i^mediately. Verification of what I have ju. * tated is readily available by calling the Soil Conser- vation Service, °nton Office. Since this tire, my trout far. „cated across the street from the reservoir) has been placed with mud and silt, during heavy rains filling my trout ponds and endangering the trout, day the reservoir is now 314 full of mud and silt and the culvert is inoperable as the stream runs alongside picking up all loose dirt washed down from the roadbed 15' to 20' above, during periods of rain, • -2- Because of these protlems, the future of the trout farm is uncertain. I anticipate when the reservoir completely fil-s with 'mud and silt, there will be absolutely ro control whatsoever and the last trout farm in South King County will close. The attitude of the Renton Public Works Department is typical of the comments rade by they to a Seattle P.I. reporter last March and I quote as follows: "Officials at the Renton Public works Department dispute Don's claims. They say that the road was installed in 1910 and recent construction was done only to cor;ec>}damage caused by the 1972 flood. The silt may be coning_ from scmewhere else says Warren Gonnason, Renton Public 'Works IIireEtor.'r - I believe Mr. Gonnason should act in a responsible manner and accept res- ponsibility for correcting the situation. Is the City of Renton on a double standard? The readers should decide. Don Gallagher Springbrook Trout Farm 19225 Springbrook Road Renton, Washingtrn l NT6ROFlI ^ 8 C0RRESP0NDENCE Data, 0ctcber 22, 1971 TO: Dick Houghtun FRfri: Bob Bergstrom SUbJtCP: Sprinobrook Springs Storm Sewer Main Review of the King County Storm Sewer in the area of Springbrook Springs looks very good. In my opinion this proposed sewer is what we need. It should be noted that this system will only Increase the probl^ms with the fish farm. Increased ohannelization and storm sewers will increase the amounts of run-off .,nd change the general characteristics of Springbrook Springs. I suggest that the City proceed with this program. The 23,000 dollar estimate for materials is certainly In the range In which this is programmed for such a facility.
