Exhibit B — Operations and Maintenance
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCIDONS FOR BASIC DISPERSION
Your property contains an on -site BMP (best management practice) called "basic dispersion," which
was installed to mitigate the storrawater quantity and quality impacts of some or all of the impervious
surfaces or tion-native pervious surfaces on your property.
Basic dispersion is a strategy for utilizing any available capacity of onsite vegetated areas to retain,
absorb, and filter the runoff from developed surfaces. This on -site BMP has two primary components
that must be maintained:
(1) The devices that disperse runoff from the developed surfaces and
(2) The vegetated area over which runoff is dispersed.
Dispersion Devices
The dispersion devices used on your property include the following as indicated on the site
plan (CHECK T11E BOX(ES)THAT APPLY):
Ndsplash blocks, Q rock pads, LI gravel filled trenches, bdsheet flow.
The size, placement, composition, and downstream flowpaths of these devices as depicted by the site
plan and design details must be maintained and may not be changed without written approval from the
City of Renton or through a future development permit from the City of Renton.
INSPECTION FREQUENCY AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
-1Mwazftc_BMRhas_ two�, r compon - m&nmmm!kLmaint1ined --u
Renton's Surface Water Design Manual-
(1) The devices that disperse runoff from the developed. surfaces and
(2) The vegetated flowpath area over which runoff is dispersed.
Maintenance of Dispersion Devices
* Dispersion devices must be inspected annually and after major stonn events to identify and
repair any physical defects.
* When native soil is exposed or erosion channels are present, the sources of the erosion or
concentrated flow need to be identified and mitigated.
* Concentrated flow can be mitigated by leveling the edge of the pervious area and/or realigning
or replenishing the rocks in. the dispersion device, such as in rock pads and gravel filled
trenches.
Maintenance of Vegetated Flowpaths
The vegetated area over which runoff is dispersed must be maintained in good condition free
of bare spots and obstructions that would concentrate flows.

MAINTENANCE INS TRUCTIONSIII R SOIL AMENDMENT
Your property contains an on -site BMP (best management practice) called "soil amendment," which
was installed to mitigate the stormwater quantity and. quality impacts of some or all of the pervious
surfaces on your property.
Soil amendment is a nieth.od of regaining greater stormwater ffinctions in the post development
landscape by increasing treatment of pollutants and sediments, and minimizing the need for some
landscaping chemicals. To be successful., the soil condition must be able to soak water into the ground
for a reasonable number of years. This on -site BMP shall be maintained per Appendix A of the City of
Renton's Surface Water Design. Manual.
The size, placement, and composition of these devices as depicted by the site plan and design details
must be maintained and may not be changed without written approval from the City of Renton or
through a future development permit from the City of Renton.
!1jr!
To be successful, the soil must be able to soak water into the ground for a reasonable number of years.
* Return leaf fall and shredded woody materials from the landscape to the site when possible in
order to replenish soil nutrients and structure.
* On turf areas, "grasscycle" (mulch -mow or leave the clippings} to build turf health.
* Maintain 2 to 3 inches of mulch over bare areas in landscape beds.
* Re -seed bare turf areas until the vegetation fully covers the ground surface,
* Avoid using pesticides (bug and weed killers) which damage the soil,
* Where fertilization is needed (mainly turf and annual flower beds), a moderate fertilization
program should be used which relies on compost, natural fertilizers, or slow -release synthetic
balanced fertilizers.
These on -site B. maintenance and operation instructions must be recorded as an attachment to the
required declaration of covenant and grant of easement per Requirement 3 of Section C.1.3.4 of the
City of Renton 5u�fke Water Design Manual. The intent of these instructions is to explain to future
property owners, the purpose of the BMP and how it must be maintained and operated. These
instructions are intended to be a minimum; the City of Renton may require additional instructions
based on site -specific conditions. See the City of Renton's Surface Water Design Manual website for
additional. information and updates.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR NATIVE GROWTH RETENTION
CREDIT
Your property contains an on -site BMP (best management practice) known as "native growth
retention," the practice of preserving a portion of a property in a native vegetated condition (e.g.,
forest) so as to minimize increases in stormwater runoff from clearing and to offset the stormwater
runoff impacts caused by impervious surfaces on your property.
This native vegetated area on your property was set aside by covenant as "native growth retention
area." This on -site BMP shall be maintained per Appendix A of the City of Renton's Surface Water
Design Manual.
MAINTENANCE RESTRICTIONS
The "native growth retention area" is delineated on the site plan attached to the covenant. The trees,
vegetation, ground cover, and soil conditions in this area may not be disturbed, except as allowed by
the following provisions:
1, Trees may be harvested in accordance with a King County -approved forest management plan if
approved by King County prior to annexation to the City.
2. Individual trees that have a structural defect due to disease or other defects, and which threaten
to damage a structure, road, parking area, utility, or place of employment or public assembly,
or block emergency access, may be topped, pruned, or removed as needed to eliminate the
threat,
3. Dead or fallen trees, tree limbs within ten feet of the ground, and branches overhanging a
residence may be removed to reduce the danger of` wildfire.
4. Noxious weeds (i.e., plant species listed on the State noxious weed list in Chapter 16-750
WAC) and invasive vegetation (i.e., plant species listed as obnoxious weeds on the noxious
weed list adopted by King County) may be removed.
5. Passive recreation uses and related facilities, including pedestrian, equestrian community and
bicycle trails, nature viewing areas, fishing and cairiping areas, and other similar uses that do
not require permanent structures, are allowed if clearing and soil compaction associated with
these uses and facilities does not exceed eight percent of the native growth retention area.
These native growth retention credit on -site BMP maintenance and operation instructions must be
recorded as an attachment to the required. declaration of covenant and grant of easement per
Requirement 3 of Section C. 13 A of the City of Renton &vjace Water Design Manual. The intent of
these instructions is to explain to future property owners, the purpose of the BMP and how it must be
maintained and operated. These instructions are intended to be a minimum; the City of Renton) may
require additional instructions based on site -specific conditions. See the City of Renton's Surface
Water Design Manual. website for additional information and updates.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR A PERFORATED PIPE
CONNECTION
Your property contains an on -site MP (best management practice) called a "perforated pipe
connection," which was installed to reduce the storm. water runoff impacts of some or all of the
impervious surface on your property.
A perforated pipe connection is a length of drainage conveyance pipe with holes in the bottom,
designed to "leak" runoff, conveyed by the pipe, into a gravel filled trench where it can be soaked into
the surrounding soil. The connection is intended to provide opportunity for infiltration of any runoff
that is being conveyed from an impervious surface (usually a root) to a local drainage system such as a
ditch or roadway pipe system. This on -site BMP shall be maintained per Appendix A of the City of
Renton's Surface Water Design. Manual.
MAINTENANCE RESTRICTIONS
The size and composition of the perforated pipe connection as depicted by the site plan and
design details must be maintained and may not be changed without written approval from. the
City of Renton or through a future development permit from the City of Renton,
The soil overtop of the perforated portion of the system must not be compacted or covered
with impervious materials.
These perforated pipe connection on -site BMP maintenance and operation instructions must be
recorded as an attachment to the required. declaration of covenant and grant of easement per
Requirement 3 of Section C. 1. 3.4 of the City of Renton Sudiwe Water Design Manual. The intent of
these instructions is to explain to future property owners, the purpose of the BMP and how it must be
maintained and operated. These instructions are intended to be a minimum; the City of Renton may
require additional instructions based on site -specific conditions. See the City of Renton's Surface
Water Design Manual website for additional information and updates.
