Indirectly, consideration of any bridge structure should include provi- sion for the installation of a watermain across or through siad struc- ture. This could be very important if at some timt in the future, the water system should expand in that direction or a supply source is developed in that area.

Renton , Wash . 98055 State Route 169 Maple Valley Highway Environmental Impact Statement Dear Mr. Houghton : The Washington State Department of Transportation is initiating the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on a proposal to improve the Maple Valley Highway (State Route 169 ) between the Maplewood Golf Course and 149th Avenue S . E. The Department has formed an interdisciplinary team to conduct design and environmental studies that will be used tc evaluate social , economic and environmental impacts of alternatives to be studied in the EIS. The team is currently generating alternatives that will be studied in the EIS, identifying significant issues and areas of concern that will be addressed in the EIS, and determining the environ,,nental consultation. documentation and permit requirements of the project. Alternatives being considered by the team as initially proposed in the Advanced Planning Study completed in April 1968 , include : 1 ) Widen the roadway on existing alignment to four lanes with channelized intersections ; 2) Widen the roadway to four lanes with channelized inter- sections on existing alignment easterly to the railroad undercrossing, then on new alignment north of the railroad across the Cedar River overcrossing the railroad and meeting existing alignment east of 140th Place S. E; 3) Provide two new west bound lanes from vicinity of 140th Place S . E. overcrossing the railroad and paralleling the railroad on the north across the Cedar River to meet the existing alignment where the existing alignment would be widened to four lanes with channelized intersections . Eastbound two lanes would remain on existing alignment . State Rout^ 169 Environmen,al Impact Statement Page 2- A fourth alternative taking advantage of the possible abandonment of the Burlington Northern Railroad right of way may also be considered . The project schedule calls for identification and ev•- I 'ation of alternatives to take place during 1982 , with a Des .gn and EIS hearing to be held early in 1983. Any needed right of way would be acquired during late 1983 and 1984 . Timing of Construction has not been scheduled , and wil' depend upon availability of funds . To aid us in developing the project and determining the scope of the EIS, we would appreciate receiving your comments regarding tnese preliminary alternatives as well as areas of concern to your group or agency. If you have any questions related to Lhe project or would like to meet with the interdisciplinary team, please contact Mr. Ken Zentner, tel^phone 775-7444 . An informal meeting can be scheduled at your convenience, however, we would appreciate receiving comments by February 10 , 1982 so that the scope of the project can be defined and a Draft EIS prepared by February 1983. We lock forward to hearing from you in the near future. Very truly yours , J . D. ZIRKLE, P . E . DISTRICT ADMINI5TRAT0R Harold L. Morgan, 7E.�J Project Engineer KMZ :ct Attachment '• r V Y r cA tla.
