Hi Tamela – this is the information I just received from my engineer reviewer:
Yes, they will have some ground disturbing activities for the water improvements.
- Installing DDCVA, RPBA, fire hydrant assembly, etc…
Very minimal though
Please let me know if this prompts an updated comment from the DAHP, so that I can include it in my review and
report.

Hi Ian,
Did you ever hear back on if there would be any ground disturbance associated with infrastructure or frontage

Hi Tamela,
The applicant has indicated none due to the proposed work being fairly minor and within the footprint of the
existing building. I’ll check with out Development Engineering team to see if any ground disturbance will take place
due to required infrastructure or frontage improvement work and let you know what they say.
Thanks,

Hi Ian,
There are no ground disturbing activities outlined in the SEPA checklist. Will there be any infrastructure
or other activities that will require ground disturbance?
I appreciate the additional information.
