FIRE STATION 15
TECHNICAL INFORMATION REPORT
SUBMITTED: NOVEMBER 10, 2017; REVISED: FEBRUARY 12, 2018
SECTION 1 – PROJECT OVERVIEW
This Technical Information Report (TIR) is for the construction the new Fire Station 15 for the City of
Renton. Refer to Figure 1: TIR Worksheet for basic site information. The project is west of I-405,
located at 1404 N 30th Street on parcel #3342103245. The site is in Section 32, Township 24, Range 5,
Willamette Meridian. Refer to Figure 2- Vicinity Map.
The City of Renton has adopted the 2016 King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM)
with the City’s 2016 Surface Water Design Manual Amendment (RSWDMA). According to Figure
1.1.2.A of the RSWDMA, Flow Chart for Determining Type of Drainage Review Required, the project
is subject to a “Full Drainage Review” because the project results in greater than 2,000 SF of new plus
replaced impervious surface, and it is not a large project or single family residential project. Per the
“Full Drainage Review” requirements in Table 1.1.2.A, the TIR addresses Core Requirements #1-9
and Special Requirements #1-5 of the 2016 RSWDMA.
The current property is proposed to be subdivided into two lots. The northern lot will be for the
development of a new water storage reservoir serving the 320-pressure zone. The project in the
northern lot will be on a similar timeline for design and construction and will be permitted separately.
The southern lot will be the extent of the proposed project improvements addressed in this report.
Please note in the documents that due to the timing of the Reservoir construction that portion of the
work is indicated by others as the Reservoir construction will utilize this area as construction access
and laydown. These areas will be constructed to the proposed improvements by Reservoir Contractor
prior to completion of their project.
Existing Site
The total existing parcel area is 47,538 SF (1.09 acres). The project limit of work within the
southernmost subdivided lot totaling 31,173 SF (0.72 acre). The site and bounded by two gas stations
to the east and west, single-family residences to the north, and N 30th St to the south. The property is
located in the Kennydale neighborhood on a vacant, city-owned parcel. See Figure 3A – Existing
Conditions.
Topographically the site generally slopes downward from northeast to southwest, a vertical elevation
change of 12.5 feet. According to the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, the site soils in
the project area are mapped as Indianola loamy sand (InC) with 5 to 15 percent slopes. Refer to Figure
4 – Soils Map. HWA GeoSciences, Inc. prepared a study for the project site dated December 21, 2017.
The field investigation included three boring samples and one Pilot Infiltration Test. In general, the
borings indicated one foot of topsoil underlain with recessional outwash to approximately 5-feet to 7-
feet in depth. Underneath the recessional outwash is weathered till soils consisting of medium dense
silty sand. In the geotechnical engineer’s study, it was determined that shallow BMP facilities would
not be feasible for infiltration. Deep infiltration filtration facilities are feasible if the upper fine-grained
material is over-excavated approximately 7 feet below grade to expose the native clean soils that have
an infiltration rate of 1.1 inches per hour.

Technical Information Report
Submitted: November 10, 2017; Revised: February 12, 2018
A survey of the site has been prepared by Duane Hurtmant & Associates, Inc. on October 21st, 2016.
According to the survey, there are no existing drainage facilities on the property. It appears the
majority of the stormwater runoff from the project site sheet flows southwest towards an existing inlet
within in N 30th St. There is a 12-inch public storm main flowing west within the north portion of N
30th Street. The site is located in the East Lake Washington drainage basin.
According to the City of Renton GIS maps, the site is located within a Wellhead Protection Area Zone
2. Along the eastern property line of the site, a relatively small area has been designated as a regulated
slope (>15% and ≤ 25%). There do not appear to be any other critical areas on the site.
Proposed Site Improvements
Proposed improvements include a new fire station with 11 standard parking stalls on-site and one ADA
stall with ADA accessible walkways to the front entrance. An asphalt drive access will be constructed
along the west side of the property to be shared with the northern subdivided water reservoir lot. A
second drive on the eastern portion of the property that will be for fire truck exit only out of the 2-bay
garage. The parking lot north of the building will be constructed as a permeable pavement facility and
runoff will infiltrate through the existing soils beneath. Runoff from a portion of the roof, northern
drive entrance, and some walkways will be collected by a bioretention facility with an infiltrating
gravel basin. The stormwater overflow will then route to the proposed shallow detention facility along
the south property line. The asphalt drive access and south driveway will be treated with StormFilter
cartridges before discharging to the detention facility. Controlled flows form the detention facility will
then discharge to the existing public system along N 30th Street. Refer to Section 4 – Flow Control and
Water Quality Analysis and Design for further information on the storm drainage design. Also refer to
Figure 3B – Proposed Conditions.
Improvements will be made to the frontage along N 30th Street to accommodate the two proposed drive
entrances per coordination with the City of Renton.. An 11-foot dedication along the site frontage has
been requested by the City to allow for future right-of-way (ROW) expansion to N 30th Street.
SECTION 2 – CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY
This section addresses the Core Requirements (Section 1.2) and Special Requirements (Section 1.3)
requirements set forth by 2016 RSWDMA.
Core Requirement 1 - Discharge at the Natural Location (1.2.1)
The proposed conditions will maintain the natural drainage patterns within its basin. All stormwater
runoff will be routed to the existing catch basin inlet within N 30th Street discharging to the 12-inch
public storm main.
Core Requirement 2 - Off-site Analysis (1.2.2)
An offsite analysis is required for this project and can be referred to in Section 3 below. A field
investigation and assessment has been conducted by LPD dated November 4th, 2017.
Core Requirement 3 – Flow Control (1.2.3)
Per the City of Renton Flow Control Application Map, Reference 15-A in the RSWDMA., the project
site is located within a Peak Rate Flow Control Standard (Existing Site Conditions) area. Therefore,
flow control facilities must be provided to match the existing site’s peak discharge rates for the 2- year,
Page 3
Fire Station 15
Technical Information Report
Submitted: November 10, 2017; Revised: February 12, 2018
10-year, and 100- year return periods at the point of discharge from the site. Per the RSWDMA, flow
control facilities must mitigate the runoff from the target surfaces which include new impervious
surfaces and new pervious surfaces not fully dispersed. For further information regarding the flow
control design, refer to Section 4 of this report.
Core Requirement 4 - Conveyance System (1.2.4)
A conveyance design analysis for the project has been completed and is included within Section 5 of
this Report.
Core Requirement 5 - Erosion and Sedimentation Control (1.2.5)
A Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control (TESC) plan for the project is included with this
submittal. The TESC plan will be considered the minimum for anticipated site conditions. The
Contractor will be responsible for implementing all TESC measures and upgrading as necessary. The
TESC facilities will be in place prior to clearing, grubbing, or construction of proposed improvements.
Core Requirement 6 - Maintenance and Operations (1.2.6)
The maintenance and operations guidelines for all of the proposed stormwater facilities have been
included in Appendix D.
Core Requirement 7 – Financial Guarantees and Liability (1.2.7)
Financial guarantees and liability are not anticipated to be required since the Owner is a public agency.
Core Requirement 8 – Water Quality (1.2.8)
The project proposes more than 5,000 SF of pollutant generating impervious surface (PGIS) and
therefore requires the project to provide water quality treatment. For further information regarding the
water quality design requirements, refer to Section 4 of this report.
Core Requirement 9 – On-site BMP’s (1.2.9)
The project is required to provide onsite flow control best management practices (BMP’s) to mitigate
the impacts of stormwater runoff generated by the new plus replaced impervious surface to the
maximum extent feasible. Per section 1.2.9.2 of the 2016 RSWDMA, the project is larger than 22,000
SF; therefore, the project will apply the large lot BMP requirements. For further information regarding
the on-site BMP’s, refer to Section 4 of this report.
Special Requirement 1 – Other Adopted Area-Specific Requirements (1.3.1)
• Master Drainage Plans (MDPs) – Project is not within an area covered by an approved
Master Drainage Plan.
• Basin Plans (BPs) – The project is located in the East Lake Washington drainage basin.
The Renton Municipal Code does not provide any more stringent flow control or water
quality requirements than that of the current code.
• Salmon Conservation Plans (SCPs) – The applicable SCP is the Water Resource
Inventory Area (WRIA) 8 for the Lake Washington/Cedar/Sammamish Watershed.
Within the large watershed, our project is in the Lake Washington. The SCP does not
appear to have stormwater management requirements more stringent than Renton
Municipal Code.

Technical Information Report
Submitted: November 10, 2017; Revised: February 12, 2018
• Stormwater Compliance Plans (SWCPs) – The project is not within an area governed by a
SWCP.
• Flood Hazard Reduction Plans (FHRPs) –The project site is not within a designated flood
hazard area.
• Shared Facility Drainage Plan (SFDPs) – The proposed project is not within an area with
a SFDP.
Special Requirement 2 – Flood Hazard Area Delineation (1.3.2)
The project site is not located within or adjacent to a designated flood hazard area
Special Requirement 3 – Flood Protection Facilities (1.3.3)
The project does not rely on an existing flood protection facility, nor will a new flood protection
facility be constructed; therefore, this requirement is not applicable.
Special Requirement 4 – Source Control (1.3.4)
In the proposed conditions, there will be no applicable activities matching those listed within the 2016
King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual (KCSPPM) that will require the use of source
control measures.
Special Requirement 5 – Oil Control (1.3.5)
The project will not have high-use site characteristics, nor is it an existing high-use site.
Special Requirement 6 – Aquifer Protection Area (1.3.6)
Per the city of Renton Aquifer Protection Area (APA) map, the project site is within Zone 2. Per the
geotechnical report the infiltrative soils on-site have a cation exchange capacity greater than 5, an
organic content greater than 0.5%, and are composed of less than 25% gravel by weight with at least
75% of the soil passing the #4 sieve and meet the gradation requirements of Section 1.2.8 of the
RSWDMA. Therefore; the existing soils meet the soil properties required within the groundwater
protection areas and allow the project to be exempt from Core Requirement #8 per 1.2.8 Exemption #4
Soil Treatment Exemption.

Water Quality Problems
According to King County’s iMAP program, the project site is not within a designated King
County water quality problem area.
Developed Site Hydrology
Please refer to Section 1- Project Overview and the Flow Control System section below in this report
for a description of the proposed hydrology.
Field Inspection
A field inspection was conducted by LPD on November 4th, 2017. Refer to Drainage System
Description and Problem Descriptions below for information about the existing conditions and
downstream analysis.
Drainage System Description and Problem Descriptions
The following downstream analysis has been prepared using City of Renton Surface Water Network
Map, topographical survey, and a site visit dated November 4th, 2017. The weather at time of
inspection was dry but cloudy with an average temperature of 42º Fahrenheit. As stated previously,
there are no existing drainage facilities on the property. It appears the majority of the stormwater runoff
from the project site sheet flows southwest towards existing inlet within in N 30th Street. Refer to
Figure 5 – Downstream Drainage Course for the continuation of the downstream flow path and
Appendix F for photos taken during the visit. The remaining downstream course is as follows:
1. The flow continues west within the 12-inch system along N 30th Street for approximately
1,000 feet.
2. The system continues west through 18-inch line in N 30th Street, between Park Ave N and
Burnett Ave N, about 300 feet before crossing the ¼-mile point downstream from the site.
3. Stormwater discharges into existing catch basin located at the intersection of N 30th Street and
Burnett Ave N. Flow continues north through 18-inch pipe to an existing catch basin near the
intersection of Burnett Ave N and N 33rd Street.
4. A 24-inch storm line exits the existing catch basin and continues north for about 530 feet to a
catch basin at the intersection of Burnett Ave N and N 34th Street.
5. Flow continues west before discharging to existing catch basin within Lake Washington Blvd
N.
6. A 24-inch storm line exits the catch basin and continues southwest for about 120 feet.
7. The system continues west through 24-inch line, eventually outfalling to Lake Washington.
Based upon our field review of the system, there was not evident problem areas or areas of concern.
Mitigation of Existing or Potential Problems
As previously mentioned, there are no sensitive or problem areas near or around the site. Refer to
Study Area Definition and Maps for more information.

WATER QUALITY FACILITY ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
Existing Site Hydrology
Please refer to Section 1- Project Overview and Section 3- Off-site Analysis of this report for a
description of the existing hydrology.
Developed Site Hydrology
Please refer to Section 1- Project Overview and the Flow Control System section below in this report
for a description of the proposed hydrology.
Performance Standards
Please refer to Section 2- Conditions and Requirements Summary, Section 5 – Conveyance Systems
Analysis, and the Flow Control System, and Water Quality sections of this report for a description of
the required standards applicable to this report.
Flow Control BMPs have been applied in accordance with Section 1.2.9 of the RSWDMA. Refer to
Figure 3B – Proposed Conditions and Area Summary spreadsheet for the calculated impervious
coverage and area calculations for BMP implementation. The project site proposed more than 2,000 SF
of new plus replaced impervious surfaces which will require an evaluation of BMP feasibility for all
target surfaces. The project site is larger than 22,000 SF, therefore, the feasibility of on-site BMPs must
be evaluated for each BMP listed in Section 1.2.9.2.2 of the RSWDMA:
1. Full dispersion is not feasible to be used as BMP due to the limited site and vegetative flow
path downstream of the target surfaces.
2. Full infiltration of roof runoff and runoff from other target surfaces is not feasible according
to Section 5.2 of the RSWDMA. Per the geotechnical report, the soils on-site consist of silty
sand and are not as permeable as the required medium/coarse sands targeted for full
infiltration. Based on the test results, the site soils have a long-term infiltration rate of 1.1
inches/hour.
3. Since the target impervious surfaces could not be mitigated by Requirements 1 and 2 above,
the following has been implemented where feasible and receptor soils are available:
• Limited Infiltration: Limited infiltration will be applied to the north section of the roof,
some walkways, and the north parking lot. Per Section 1.2.8 Exemption #4 of the
RSWDMA, the soil beneath the permeable pavement and bioretention facility meet the
properties required for groundwater protection to reduce the risk of groundwater
contamination from stormwater runoff. These areas will be over-excavated to reach the
existing soils conducive to infiltration.
• Bioretention: Approximately 6,935 SF of impervious area will be directed to a
bioretention facility west of the proposed building. Per the King County Rainfall Regions
map, the project site falls within the rainfall region SeaTac 1.0. In outwash soils, the
bioretention volume is based on 0.1 inches of equivalent storage depth by the square
footage of the target surface area serve. Therefore, the required storage volume of the
bioretention pond is 58 CF of required storage. The project proposes a 6-inch ponding
bioretention cell with a total designed volume of 178 CF. The bioretention area consists of
18-inches of bioretention soil mix underlain by 12-inches of drain rock. This facility is too
shallow to reach the infiltrative native soil. Per Section C.2.6, since an underdrain is not
permitted by the City to meet Core Requirement #9, the existing soil below the
bioretention area will be over excavated and a 3’ wide by 28’ long gravel infiltration basin
will be installed below the 12-inch drain rock. The bottom of the infiltration basin is to be
Page 8
Fire Station 15
Technical Information Report
Submitted: November 10, 2017; Revised: February 12, 2018
installed approximately 7 feet below existing grade to reach native soils that are conducive
to infiltration.
• Permeable Pavement: Permeable concrete pavement has been proposed for the parking
area located north of the proposed fire station. The permeable pavement section is
designed to have pervious paving, over a choker coarse, a minimum of 36-inches of
recharge bed material that is extended to the existing subgrade receptor soil. Per
coordination with the City and additional testing from the geotechnical engineer, the
existing soil properties of the receptor soils meet the criteria per Section 1.2.8 Exemption
#4 of the RSWDMA for projects located within the groundwater protection areas and is
suitable for the proposed permeable pavement infiltration and water quality facility. The
total permeable pavement area proposed for the project is approximately 4,170 SF.
4. Basic dispersion is not feasible to be used as BMP per Section C.2.4 of the RSWDMA due to
the limited vegetative flow path downstream of the target surfaces.
5. The proposed project site will have an impervious coverage greater than 65% on the buildable
portion of the site. Therefore, the site is categorized under the Large Lot BMP Requirements
and on-site BMPs are required to be applied to at least 20% of the target impervious surfaces.
Based upon the 20% of the proposed approximately 23,010 SF of new plus replaced
impervious surface , the total area required to be mitigated by BMP facilities is 4,602 SF.
Currently the project is proposing to mitigate a total of 11,105 square feet which is 48.2%.
Flow Control System
As stated in Section 3 of this report, the project site is located within a Peak Rate Flow Control
Standard (Existing Site Conditions) area. Therefore, flow control facilities must be provided to match
the existing site conditions peak discharge rates for the 2- year, 10-year, and 100- year return periods at
the point of discharge.
Based on the RSWDMA definition, the ‘existing site conditions’ are those that existed at the site prior
to May 1979 as determined from aerial photographs, unless a drainage plan for land cover changes has
been approved by the city since May 1979 as a part of a city permit or approval. Based on the city’s
records, there have been no drainage plans for permitted land cover changes by the City since 1979.
Based on available historical aerials from King County’s map vault, a 1954 and 1965 map show two
residential building with a gravel driveway and grassed-landscape on-site. Based on Renton’s record
documents, the previous owners sold the deed of the property to the City in 2001. In the year 2005 the
house was demolished according to Google aerial maps. Currently, the site is a grassed vacant lot with
a few large trees. For the modeled pre-developed conditions, instead of calculating the amount of
existing impervious area constructed before 1979 based on aerial photos, the redeveloped area will be
considered as “grass” for conservative flow calculations. Please refer to Figure 3A – Existing
Conditions for the referenced aerial images has been included in Appendix B.
For the stormwater threshold analysis, MGSFlood was used to model the pre-developed and developed
conditions within the project site area. A summary of areas for the site can be found in Appendix B of
this report and are also referred in Figure 3B – Proposed Conditions. The project proposes
approximately 23,010 SF of new plus replaced impervious surface. The majority of the site which
includes the asphalt access drive, walkways, and roof will be modeled to route directly to the detention
facility and are considered to be 100% impervious surfaces. Walkway and driveway improvements
from the ROW will be included as a target surface in the model and are considered to be 100%
impervious. The permeable pavement facility will be modeled using the permeable pavement element
in MGSFlood. The bioretention area includes an infiltration gravel basin at the bottom that was
Page 9
Fire Station 15
Technical Information Report
Submitted: November 10, 2017; Revised: February 12, 2018
modeled using the infiltration trench element. The surfaces considered pollution-generating will be
treated by water quality facilities preceding the detention system. For more information, see the Water
Quality section below in this report.
The target surfaces within the 11-foot dedication area associated with the ROW as well as target
surfaces within ROW cannot drain by gravity to a water quality facility nor a detention facility and will
be modeled as target surfaces bypassing the detention facility in the developed conditions. The bypass
areas on site will sheet flow to the northern gutter line along N 30th Street into the existing inlet where
the on-site proposed drainage system will also connect to before discharging into the existing 12-inch
public main. The following conditions were evaluated to meet the requirements presented in section
1.2.3.2.E of the 2017 RSWDMA for mitigation of target surfaces that bypass the detention facility:
1. Point of convergence is within a quarter-mile downstream of the facility’s project site
discharge point.
2. The increase in the existing site conditions 100-year peak discharge from the area of bypassed
target surfaces does not exceed 0.4cfs. Refer to the MGSFlood output for the peak flow rates
for the pre-developed and developed bypass areas in Appendix B of this report.
3. The bypass target surfaces are not anticipated to create any adverse impacts to the existing
drainage system.
4. Water quality facilities were deemed infeasible for the target bypass areas. See the Water
Quality section below in this report for additional information.
5. The target bypass areas were included in the MGSFlood model so the net effect at the point of
convergence downstream is the same with or without the bypass areas.
The MGSFlood output for the peak flow rates for the developed project area are included in the
following Table 1, and in Appendix B of this report.
Table 1 – Net Peak Flow Rates for Discharge from Project Work Area
Peak Runoff Rates for Project Work Area
Storm Event Existing Conditions Proposed Conditions Delta
2-yr 0.069 cfs 0.058 cfs 0.011 cfs
10-yr 0.174 cfs 0.162 cfs 0.012 cfs
100-yr 0.375 cfs 0.336 cfs 0.039 cfs
The required storage volume of detention facility totals 625 CF of live storage. The product being
specified as the detention system is an ADS StormTech Chamber System which is not specifically
included as a detention method in the 2016 KCSWDM. The system was chosen due to site constraints
requiring a shallow detention facility. An adjustment request is included with the project submittal for
the use of this Stormtech Chamber System for approval from the City. The detention facility will
consist of two rows of chambers surrounded with a total dimension of 40.5-feet long by 12.1-feet wide
and 3.5-feet deep (3-feet deep of live storage). A 6-inch layer of granular well-graded soil/aggregate
mixture backfill will cover all sides of the facility. The facility will outflow to a flow control structure
located west of the facility to restrict the flows entering the existing public storm system.

Water Quality System
The project proposes approximately 12,900 SF of pollution-generating impervious surfaces and
therefore requires the project to provide water quality treatment.
Per the geotechnical supplementary evaluation of the existing soils, the first 2-feet of soil into the
receptor layer below the infiltration facilities meet the groundwater protection criteria stated the Soil
Treatment exemption per Section 1.2.8 Exemption #4. A total of 5,315 SF of the pollution-generating
impervious surface routing to infiltration facilities will be exempt from water quality treatment. This
includes the northern pervious pavement parking lot as well as the drive apron on the north side of the
proposed building which is routed to the infiltrating bioretention area.
The northern parking lot exempt from water quality treatment will be constructed with a heavy-duty
concrete permeable pavement infiltration facility designed for fire truck loading. Stormwater runoff
will percolate through the permeable surface layer into the free-draining base and storage reservoir.
The total depth of the permeable pavement section deep enough to reach the existing soils that meet the
groundwater protection criteria. The infiltrative native subgrade has a design infiltration rate of 1.1
inches per hour per the geotechnical engineer’s recommendation. As stated previously the permeable
pavement facility is included in the MGSFlood output in Appendix B and has determined the facility
will to infiltrate 100% of the of the PGIS runoff.
The drive apron exempt from water quality treatment is collected by a bioretention facility with an
infiltrating gravel basin that discharges to the existing soils that meet the groundwater protection
criteria and is conducive to infiltration. As stated previously the bioretention and gravel basin facility is
included in the MGSFlood output in Appendix B and has determined the facility will to infiltrate
91.3% of the of the PGIS runoff. The excess runoff is designed to overflow into the downstream
detention facility.
The 7,585 SF of PGIS not routed to the proposed infiltration facilities will not meet the exemptions
listed in Section 1.2.8 and will be required to be treated for water quality. Per Section 1.2.8.1, the
project site is located in a Basic WQ Treatment Area. However, the project is categorized a
Commercial Land Use project and requires commercial building permit; therefore triggering Enhanced
Basic Water Quality Treatment. Due to site limitations, per Section 1.2.8.1 an exception to reduce
from Enhanced Basic Water Quality Measures back to Basic Water Quality is being pursued based
upon meeting the following Criteria:
a) The various options for Enhanced Treatment listed in Section 6.1.2 of the RSWDMA were
evaluated for feasibility:
1. Enhanced Basic Option 1 – Large Filter Sand: This option was deemed infeasible
because the runoff from the facility cannot be routed via a gravity system through the
required detention facility and into the existing shallow drainage system within the ROW
after reasonable efforts to grade. These systems would require a pumped system which is
undesirable thus infeasible.
2. Enhanced Basic Option 2 – Stormwater Wetland: This option was deemed infeasible
due to the following reasons:
Not enough available site area There is less than 100 sf that is not within 5 feet of the
building or detention facility or encumbered by utilities thus the available area is less
than what would be required for the use of a stormwater wetland.
Additionally, there is no natural water supply during dry seasons, these areas would
need to be fully irrigated to be maintained which is not encouraged as an
environmentally beneficial practice.

3. Enhanced Basic Option 3 – Two-Facility Treatment Train: Each off the paired
facilities were deemed infeasible due to either requiring an unavailable amount of site or
because the runoff from the facility cannot be routed via a gravity system through the two
treatment train through required detention facility and into the existing shallow drainage
system within the ROW after reasonable efforts to grade. These systems would require a
pumped system which is undesirable thus infeasible.
4. Enhanced Basic Option 4 – Bioretention: Deemed infeasible for the southern portion of
the site as there is not enough available site area. There is less than 100 sf that is not within
5 feet of the building or detention facility or encumbered by utilities thus the available area
is less than what would be required for the use bioretention. Additionally, a bioretention
facility in this area due to the required grading and depth of the system could not gravity
drain through required detention facility and into the existing shallow drainage system
within the ROW after reasonable efforts to grade. These systems would require a pumped
system which is undesirable thus infeasible.
5. Enhanced Basic Option 5 – Proprietary Facility: A Filterra system was sized and
analyzed for the south side of the site and determined infeasible due to a difference in
elevation of 4.3 feet from rim to outlet. Stormwater could not gravity drain from the
Filterra through required detention facility and into the existing shallow drainage system
within the ROW after reasonable efforts to grade. These systems would require a pumped
system which is undesirable thus infeasible.
6. Enhanced Basic Option 6 – WSDOT WQ Facilities: Each system was deemed
infeasible as follows:
Media Filter Drain (MFD) does not apply to project because no highway side slopes,
ditches, or other linear depressions are proposed.
Compost-Amended Vegetated Filter Strips (CAVFS) are infeasible because no
roadside embankments are proposed.
Compost-Amended Biofiltration Swales (CABS) are infeasible because the minimum
swale length cannot be met for the site
b) There are no leachable, heavy metals proposed for use on site.
c) A covenant will be filed that will prohibit use of leachable, heavy metals on the site.
d) 100% of the runoff comes from areas that have a ADT of less than 100 vehicles and will not
be involved with vehicle repair or sales.
Based upon the preceding information, it is assumed that Basic Water Quality facilities will be allowed
and implemented for this project. Stormwater runoff from the asphalt access drive and the fire truck
driveway apron on the south side of the proposed building will each be treated by two (2) separate
Stormfilter catch basin systems. A Stormfilter analysis has been conducted by Contech Stormwater
Solutions and is included in Appendix B of this report, using the project’s flow rates calculated in
MGSFlood stormwater modeling. The StormFilter structure will have ZPG media (zeolite, perlite,
granular activated carbon). Per Section 6.2.1 of the 2017 COR SWDM, the Stormfilter design flow
when the facility precedes detention is the flow at which as a minimum will treat 91% of the total
runoff. The water quality design flow rate is the peak 15 minute flow rate as calculated using an
approved continuous runoff model. The resulting size of StormFilter Structures was two (2) 18-inch
cartridges in each catch basin structure near each surface, upstream of the detention system. The
MGSFlood output for the water quality analysis and the calculations by Contech for the StormFilter
have been provided in Appendix B of this report.

SECTION 5 – CONVEYANCE SYSTEMS ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
The proposed conveyance system will be designed to convey the 25-year peak flow rate of the
developed site. The system is allowed to overtop during the 100-year peak flow provided that it does
not create or aggravate a severe flooding problem.
The entire project site was considered 100% impervious for conservative calculations. A conveyance
analysis was performed for one pipe run. The 12-inch storm line is the ultimate discharge point,
receiving flow from the entire site at a minimum 0.5% slope. The tributary flows were calculated using
MGS Flood with the 158-year, 5-minute time series and were compared to the full flow capacity of the
conveyance pipe calculated by the Manning’s equation. The pipe analyzed was determined to have
adequate capacity to convey the 25-year peak flow for the tributary area. Attached is the complete
output from MGS Flood and Conveyance Analysis Spreadsheet.
SECTION 6 – SPECIAL REPORTS AND STUDIES
A geotechnical report prepared by HWA GeoSciences Inc. dated December 21, 2017 and a
supplemental memorandum dated January 29th, 2018 has been provided under separate cover.
SECTION 7 – OTHER PERMITS
An NPDES permit from the Washington State Department of Ecology will not be required for the
project disturbs less than one (1) acre of land. There are no additional permits required from other
agencies for this project.
SECTION 8 – CSWPPP ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
An Erosion Sediment Control (ESC) plan has been prepared for the project and is included within the
Design Drawings included in Appendix A of this report. The ESC plan includes a temporary sediment
settling tank. A minimum volume was calculated using the methodology from 2017 RSWDMA, with
the 2-year developed flow rate from MGSFlood. A volume equivalent sediment trap was calculated to
find the necessary volume for a sediment tank for this project. A copy of the sediment trap sizing
calculations worksheets used for this exercise is attached in Appendix B. In addition to the sediment
settling tank, plans include a sediment trap upstream from the temporary tank.
The construction storm water pollution prevention plan (CSWPPP) consists of the site preparation plan
provided on plan sheets C1.01-C1.2 and a Stormwater Pollution Prevention and Spill (SWPPS) plan
provided in Appendix C. The Contractor will be responsible for implementing all TESC measures and
upgrading as necessary. The TESC facilities will be in place prior to any clearing, grubbing or
construction. Anticipated minimum ESC and stormwater pollution prevention measures are as follows:
• Mark Clearing Limits/Minimize Clearing – Clearing limits will be defined by erosion control
components and areas of proposed grading. Clearing will be minimized to the maximum extent
practicable. No existing trees will be removed.
• Minimized Sediment Tracked Offsite – A stabilized construction entrance for vehicle access to
minimize the tracking of public roads. The temporary construction access is shown on the ESC

plan. If necessary, sediment shall be removed from roads by shoveling or pickup sweeping and
shall be transported to a controlled sediment disposal area.
• Install Sediment Controls – Runoff from disturbed areas must pass through a sediment control
measures to prevent the transport of sediment downstream until the disturbed area is fully
stabilized. Sediment will be controlled using perimeter siltation control which includes silt fencing.
In addition, catch basin inlet protection will be installed on any existing catch basin within and
surrounding the project area.
• Stabilize Exposed Soils –It is possible that some of the earthwork and grading may occur in wet
weather conditions. The site must be stabilized and no soils will be allowed to remain unstabilized
for more than two days between October 1 and April 30. From May 1 through September 30,
cover measures must be installed to protect disturbed areas that will remain unworked for seven
days or more. By October 8, seed all areas that will remain unworked from October 1 through
April 30. Mulch all seeded areas. Exposed slopes will be protected by DOE-approved coverage
measures, such as mulching, nets and blankets, plastic covering, seeding, and sodding per Section
C.3 of the KCSWDM will be used to stabilize onsite soils during construction. See Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Notes on the plans in Appendix A
• Control Pollutants – Sediment is the only pollutant expected from the proposed project. Limiting
the duration of disturbance of the site soils provides the first level of protection for pollution
control, and perimeter measures on the edges of the disturbed areas will mitigate the remaining
pollutants.
• Control De-watering – De-watering is not expected to be required. If perched groundwater is
encountered and de-watering is necessary, a temporary pump will be used to remove water from
the trenches. Pumped water will be routed to perimeter undisturbed areas or other approved
location prior to discharge from the project site.
• Maintain BMPs – The BMPs will be maintained regularly in accordance with the Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Plan and Notes.
• Manage the Project – The Contractor will maintain a daily presence on the site and will assign a
contact person for erosion and sedimentation control issues.

Information provided:
• Presiding agency = City of Renton
Structure ID West Basin East Basin
Water Quality Flow Rate (cfs) 0.014 0.004
Peak Flow Rate (cfs) 0.096 0.029
Number of cartridges 1 1
Cartridge flow rate (gpm) 7.5 7.5
Media type ZPG ZPG
Structure size Steel Catch Basin Steel Catch Basin
Approximate Price $5,500 $5,500
Assumptions:
• Media = ZPG cartridges providing basic treatment
• Drop required from rim to outlet = 2.3’ minimum – 4.25’ maximum
Size and cost estimates:
The StormFilter is a flow-based system, and is therefore sized by calculating the peak water quality flow rate
associated with the design storm. The water quality flow rates were calculated by the consulting engineer using
WWHM and were provided to Contech Engineered Solutions LLC for the purposes of developing this estimate.
The StormFilters for this site were sized based on the above water quality flow rates. To accommodate these flow
rates, Contech Engineered Solutions recommends using catch basin StormFilters (see attached detail). The
estimated cost of these systems is shown in the above table; these estimates include complete systems delivered to
the job site. The final system cost will depend on the actual depth of the units and whether extras like doors rather
than castings are specified. The contractor is responsible for setting the catch basin StormFilter and all external
plumbing.
Typically the catch basin StormFilters have internal bypass capacities of 1.0 cfs. Since the peak discharge in the
basins is not expected to exceed this rate, a high-flow bypass upstream of the StormFilter systems is not required.

catchBasin StormFilter™
Important: These guidelines should be used as a part of your site
stormwater plan.
Overview
The CatchBasin StormFilter™ (CBSF) consists of a multi-chamber
steel, concrete, or plastic catch basin unit that can contain up to
four StormFilter cartridges. The steel CBSF is offered both as a
standard and as a deep unit.
The CBSF is installed flush with the finished grade and is
applicable for both constrained lot and retrofit applications. It
can also be fitted with an inlet pipe for roof leaders or similar
applications.
The CBSF unit treats peak water quality design flows up to 0.13
cfs, coupled with an internal weir overflow capacity of 1.0 cfs for
the standard unit, and 1.8 cfs for the deep steel and concrete
units. Plastic units have an internal weir overflow capacity of 0.5
cfs.
Design Operation
The CBSF is installed as the primary receiver of runoff, similar
to a standard, grated catch basin. The steel and concrete CBSF
units have an H-20 rated, traffic bearing lid that allows the filter
to be installed in parking lots, and for all practical purposes,
takes up no land area. Plastic units can be used in landscaped
areas and for other non-traffic-bearing applications.
The CBSF consists of a sumped inlet chamber and a cartridge
chamber(s). Runoff enters the sumped inlet chamber either
by sheet flow from a paved surface or from an inlet pipe
discharging directly to the unit vault. The inlet chamber is
equipped with an internal baffle, which traps debris and floating
oil and grease, and an overflow weir. While in the inlet chamber,
heavier solids are allowed to settle into the deep sump, while
lighter solids and soluble pollutants are directed under the baffle
and into the cartridge chamber through a port between the
baffle and the overflow weir.
Once in the cartridge chamber, polluted water ponds and
percolates horizontally through the media in the filter cartridges.
Treated water collects in the cartridge’s center tube from where it
is directed by an under-drain manifold to the outlet pipe on the
downstream side of the overflow weir and discharged.
When flows into the CBSF exceed the water quality design
value, excess water spills over the overflow weir, bypassing the
cartridge bay, and discharges to the outlet pipe.
Applications
The CBSF is particularly useful where small flows are being
treated or for sites that are flat and have little available hydraulic
head to spare. The unit is ideal for applications in which
standard catch basins are to be used. Both water quality and
catchment issues can be resolved with the use of the CBSF.
Retro-Fit
The retrofit market has many possible applications for the CBSF.
The CBSF can be installed by replacing an existing catch basin
without having to “chase the grade,” thus reducing the high cost
of re piping the storm system.

OperatiOn and
Maintenance
catchBasin StormFilter™
Maintenance Guidelines
Maintenance procedures for typical catch basins can be applied
to the CatchBasin StormFilter (CBSF). The filter cartridges
contained in the CBSF are easily removed and replaced during
maintenance activities according to the following guidelines.
1. Establish a safe working area as per typical catch basin
service activity.
2. Remove steel grate and diamond plate cover (weight 100
lbs. each).
3. Turn cartridge(s) counter-clockwise to disconnect from pipe
manifold.
4. Remove 4” center cap from cartridge and replace with
lifting cap.
5. Remove cartridge(s) from catch basin by hand or with vactor
truck boom.
6. Remove accumulated sediment via vactor truck (min.
clearance 13” x 24”).
7. Remove accumulated sediment from cartridge bay. (min.
clearance 9.25” x 11”).
8. Rinse interior of both bays and vactor remaining water and
sediment.
9. Install fresh cartridge(s) threading clockwise to pipe
manifold.
10. Replace cover and grate.
11. Return original cartridges to Contech for cleaning.
Media may be removed from the filter cartridges using the
vactor truck before the cartridges are removed from the catch
basin structure. Empty cartridges can be easily removed from
the catch basin structure by hand. Empty cartridges should be
reassembled and returned to Contech as appropriate.
Materials required include a lifting cap, vactor truck and
fresh filter cartridges. Contact Contech for specifications and
availability of the lifting cap. The vactor truck must be equipped
with a hose capable of reaching areas of restricted clearance.
the owner may refresh spent cartridges. Refreshed cartridges are
also available from Contech on an exchange basis. Contact the
maintenance department of Contech at 503-258-3157 for more
information.
Maintenance is estimated at 26 minutes of site time. For units
with more than one cartridge, add approximately 5 minutes for
each additional cartridge. Add travel time as required.
Mosquito Abatement
In certain areas of the United States, mosquito abatement is
desirable to reduce the incidence of vectors.
In BMPs with standing water, which could provide mosquito
breeding habitat, certain abatement measures can be taken.
1. Periodic observation of the standing water to determine if
the facility is harboring mosquito larvae.
2. Regular catch basin maintenance.
3. Use of larvicides containing Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis
(BTI). BTI is a bacterium toxic to mosquito and black fly
larvae.
In some cases, the presence of petroleum hydrocarbons may
interrupt the mosquito growth cycle.
Using Larvicides in the CatchBasin StormFilter
Larvicides should be used according to manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Two widely available products are Mosquito Dunks and
Summit B.t.i. Briquets. For more information, visit http://www.
summitchemical.com/mos_ctrl/d efault.htm.
The larvicide must be in contact with the permanent pool. The
larvicide should also be fastened to the CatchBasin StormFilter
by string or wire to prevent displacement by high flows. A
magnet can be used with a steel catch basin.
For more information on mosquito abatement in stormwater
BMPs, refer to the following: http://www.ucmrp.ucdavis.edu/

GEOTECHNICAL REPORT
RENTON FIRE STATION 15
RENTON, WASHINGTON
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
This report summarizes the results of geotechnical studies performed by HWA GeoSciences Inc.
(HWA) for the proposed Renton Fire Station 15 project in Renton, Washington. The purpose of
the work was to evaluate the soil and ground water conditions at the site and provide
geotechnical recommendations for design and construction of the proposed facility.
Our field work included drilling three (3) machine-drilled borings and conducting one (1) Pilot
Infiltration Test (PIT) near the proposed fire station to evaluate soil and groundwater conditions.
Laboratory tests were performed on selected soil samples to determine their relevant engineering
properties.
1.2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
We understand that the City of Renton proposes to construct a fire station at 1404 N 30th Street
in the Kennydale neighborhood of Renton, Washington. The addition of a new fire station will
provide improved response times for fire and emergency services in the Kennydale
neighborhood and the RRFA service area, relieving some of the current load placed on Fire
Stations 11, 12 and 16. North of the project site, in the same parcel, the City proposes to
construct a new reservoir as part of a separate project.
The approximate location of the project site is shown on the Vicinity Map, Figure 1, and on the
Site and Exploration Plan, Figure 2. The proposed fire station site is part of a city-owned
rectangular parcel with a total existing parcel area of 47,532 SF (1.09 acres). The limits of work
for the fire station project is within the southernmost subdivided lot totaling 31,173 SF (0.72
acres). We understand a reservoir is to be constructed on the northern third of the site and the
fire station will be built on the southern two-thirds. HWA previously performed a geotechnical
study for the proposed reservoir.
The site is currently unimproved; and slopes gently upwards from the southwest to northeast,
varying in elevation from approximately 208 feet to 226 feet. The fire station will be a single-
story (measuring about 92 feet by 104 feet), at-grade structure with emergency vehicle
equipment bays.

We understand that onsite infiltration is the preferred method of storm water management for
this site. On-site stormwater management will be implemented via a bioretention pond and the
permeable pavement facility. Additional site improvements are expected to include a below-
grade storm water detention vault. An approximately 3-foot tall retaining wall is to be
constructed east of the fire station building accommodate grade changes.
2. FIELD AND LABORATORY TESTING
2.1 GEOTECHNICAL SUBSURFACE EXPLORATIONS
In support of design of the proposed Renton Fire Station 15 project, HWA drilled three (3)
exploratory borings, designated BH-4 through BH-6, in sequence with borings drilled for the
reservoir project to the north. The locations of these borings are shown on Figure 2. The borings
were drilled by Environmental Drilling Inc. (EDI) of Snohomish, Washington, under subcontract
to HWA. The drilling was performed using a B-61 Mobile truck rig equipped with a 4.25-inch
inside-diameter hollow-stem auger and an automatic hydraulic hammer.
In each boring, Standard Penetration Test (SPT) sampling was performed at selected intervals
and the SPT resistance (“N-value”) of the soil was logged. This resistance, or N-value, provides
an indication of relative density of granular soils and the relative consistency of cohesive soils.
Boring BH-4 was positioned near the center of the proposed fire station. It was drilled to a depth
of 31.5 feet below ground surface. Boring BH-5 was drilled to a depth of 44 feet below ground
surface near the proposed below grade storm water vault. Boring BH-6 was drilled to a depth
31.5 feet below ground surface north of the proposed fire station location.
In each boring, Standard Penetration Test (SPT) sampling was performed at selected intervals
and the SPT resistance (“N-value”) of the soil was logged. This resistance, or N-value, provides
an indication of relative density of granular soils and the relative consistency of cohesive soils.
A geologist from HWA logged the explorations and recorded pertinent information, including
sample depths, stratigraphy, soil engineering characteristics, and ground water occurrence. Soil
samples obtained from the exploration were classified in the field and representative portions
were placed in plastic bags. These soil samples were taken to our Bothell, Washington,
laboratory for further examination and testing.
Logs for borings BH-4 through BH-6 are presented in Appendix A of this report. The
stratigraphic contacts shown on the exploration logs represent the approximate boundaries
between soil types; actual transitions may be more gradual. The soil and ground water

conditions depicted are only for the specific date and location reported and, therefore, are not
necessarily representative of other locations and times.
2.2 INFILTRATION TESTING PROGRAM
Phase 2 of our exploration program consisted of conducting one (1) Pilot Infiltration Test (PIT),
designated PT-2, in sequence with the PIT conducted for the reservoir project. The excavation
for the PIT was conducted on July 24 and 25, 2017 by Kelly’s Excavating Inc. of Pacific,
Washington, under subcontract to HWA. The PIT was dug 7 feet into the ground to remove
surficial topsoil and upper layers of silt and silty sands. Slightly cleaner sands were encountered
at 7 feet below the ground surface where the test was performed. The dimensions of the test pit
inside of the excavation area were 3.5 feet by 5 feet. Following the PIT, PT-2 was excavated to a
depth of 13 feet to evaluate soils and ground water conditions below the test.
The test consisted of introducing water at a known flow rate into the excavation. Water was
obtained from a nearby water service in cooperation with the City of Renton Utility Division and
pumped into the excavation using a water trailer provided by Kelly’s Excavating, Inc. Slotted
pipe terminating in a 5-gallon bucket was used to dissipate the water into the excavation. Water
levels were measured with a staff gauge installed in the excavation along with a Levelogger
Edge water level datalogger. At selected intervals, HWA recorded total flow through a meter
and calculated the flow rate. The flow rate was adjusted to establish and maintain a water level
of approximately 1 foot above the base of the PIT. After approximately 7 hours of flow, the
water was turned off. Water levels in the excavation were monitored until all the water had
drained out of the test pit.
An HWA geologist logged the exploration and recorded all the pertinent information including
sample depths, stratigraphy, soil engineering characteristics, and ground water occurrence at the
time of excavation. More information regarding the PIT procedure is presented in Section 4.7 of
this report.
2.3 LABORATORY TESTING
Laboratory tests included determination of natural moisture contents and grain size distributions.
All testing was conducted in general accordance with appropriate American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) standards, as discussed in Appendix B. The test results and a discussion
of laboratory test methodology are presented in Appendix B, or displayed on the boring logs in
Appendix A, as appropriate.
2.4 PREVIOUS EXPLORATIONS
Geotechnical explorations, performed for the Kennydale 320 Pressure Zone Reservoir by HWA
in 2015, were reviewed and utilized in this study. Three borings and one PIT test were

performed as part of this project. The locations of these borings are shown on Figure 2. Copies
of these boring logs are provided in Appendix C.
3. SITE CONDITIONS
3.1 GEOLOGIC CONDITIONS
General geologic information for the project area was obtained from the Geologic Map of King
County (Booth et. al., 2006). A portion of this geologic map is shown in Figure 3 of this report.
The map indicates the project vicinity is underlain by deposits of the Fraser glaciation described
as Vashon recessional outwash. Recessional outwash deposits consist of material washed out of
a melting glacier and are characterized by stratified sand and gravel. These soils are moderately
to well sorted, with less common silty sand and rare silty clay. These materials have not been
glacially overridden and are typically loose to medium dense.
3.2 SOIL CONDITIONS
Our interpretations of subsurface conditions are based on results of our field explorations, review
of available geologic and geotechnical data, and our experience in similar geologic settings. In
general, the soils underlying the site consist of loose to medium dense, recessional outwash sands
over medium dense to dense weathered till. Each major soil unit is described below, with
materials interpreted as being youngest in origin and nearest to the surface described first.
• Recessional Outwash: Recessional outwash consisting of loose to medium dense,
olive brown, clean to silty sand to sandy silt, was encountered in all the explorations.
Borings BH-4 and BH-6 and test pit TP-2 were terminated within the recessional
outwash soils. Recessional outwash was deposited by meltwater emanating from the
retreating glacial ice sheet. Consequently, it has not been overridden by glacial ice
and is typically loose to medium dense. The upper 5 to 7 feet of recessional outwash
typically consisted of loose to medium dense, sandy silt. It should be noted that a
large boulder was partially exposed in TP-2 about 5 feet bgs.
• Weathered Till: Weathered till was encountered in boring BH-5 below the
recessional outwash sands at 37 feet bgs. This unit consisted of very stiff sandy silt
and medium dense to dense, silty, gravelly sand. Previous explorations at the site to
the north encountered glacial till below the recessional outwash deposits, as indicated
in the logs of borings BH-1 and BH-2, which are presented in Appendix C. Although
not encountered in our borings, cobbles and boulders are known to exist in glacial
deposits.

3.3 GROUND WATER
At the time of our field investigation, perched ground water seepage was observed only in boring
BH-5 at a depth 32.5 feet below ground surface. The ground water seepage observed may not
necessarily be indicative of other times and/or locations and it is anticipated that ground water
conditions will vary depending on the weather, local subsurface conditions, and other factors.
4. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 GENERAL
The proposed fire station site is underlain by recessional outwash over weathered till soils. The
recessional outwash will provide suitable bearing for the proposed structure. The loose to
medium dense, recessional outwash sands will experience elastic settlement due to the increases
in load associated with the proposed structure. However, most of this settlement will occur
during construction. We recommend the structure be designed and constructed with spread
footing foundations bearing on a layer of compacted structural fill placed over the native soils.
Because the upper 5 to 7 feet of outwash soils are relatively loose, we recommend they be
compacted prior to construction of foundations. We recommend that the building site be
excavated to the proposed floor subgrade level and then compacted by at least 4 complete
coverages with a 10-ton (minimum static weight) vibratory roller. In addition, individual footing
subgrades should be compacted with a backhoe-mounted vibratory plate compactor (hoepac).
On-site stormwater management will be implemented via a bioretention pond and the permeable
pavement facility. It should be noted that sandy silt soils with high percentage of fines were
encountered from the ground surface to 5-7 feet below ground surface. These soils are not
conducive to infiltration. Therefore, we recommend over-excavating the upper fine-grained
material (sandy silt soils) and backfilling with permeable ballast, per WSDOT Standard
Specification 9-03.9(2). The granular material placed underneath the bioretention pond and
pervious pavement should be compacted lightly.
Recommendations related to site seismicity, foundations, retaining walls, utilities, below-grade
structures, stormwater management, earthwork, and pavement are presented in the following
sections.
4.2 SEISMIC DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
4.2.1 Seismic Design Parameters
Earthquake loading for the structures at the project site was developed in accordance with the
2015 International Building Code (IBC), (ICC, 2015). The IBC requires above-grade structures
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 6 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
be designed for the inertial forces induced by a “Maximum Considered Earthquake” (MCE),
which corresponds to an earthquake with a 2% probability of exceedance (PE) in 50 years
(approximately 2,475-year return period). Accordingly, the relevant probabilistic spectral
response parameters were developed using the United States Geological Survey’s website. The
IBC accounts for the effects of site-specific subsurface ground conditions on the response of
structures in terms of site classes. Site classes are defined by the average density and stiffness of
the soil profile underlying the site. The Site Class can be correlated to the average standard
penetration resistance (NSPT) in the upper 100 feet of the soil profile. Based on our
characterization of the subsurface conditions, the subject site classifies as IBC Site Class D.
Table 1 presents the design spectral seismic coefficients obtained for this site based on risk
category I/II/III. The design peak ground acceleration for use in computing lateral earth
pressures was computed to be 0.385 g. Based on the SDS and SD1 values, the site is considered as
Seismic Design Category D.

The project site is located within about 2 miles of the Seattle Fault Zone. The main seismic
consideration for the site is the large amplitude of the ground motions associated with its
proximity to the fault, which is accounted for in the design seismic coefficients.
With respect to the design parameters for the vertical accelerations, the recommendations
provided in the ASCE 7-10 Section 12.4.2.2 (ASCE, 2010) should be applied.
4.2.2 Liquefaction
Primary factors controlling the development of liquefaction include the intensity and duration of
strong ground motions, the characteristics of subsurface soils, in-situ stress conditions and the
depth to ground water. Based on the ground water elevations observed in our explorations, the
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 7 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
materials that are saturated are dense to very dense and will not be subject to liquefaction during
shaking. Therefore, liquefaction is not a design consideration for this project.
4.2.3 Ground Rupture
A review of the existing geologic data indicates that there are no known active faults at this site;
therefore, ground rupture is not a design consideration.
4.3 ESTIMATED SETTLEMENTS
The soils underlying the fire station site consist of recessional outwash sands over weathered
glacial till. Assuming the recommendations in this report are followed, we anticipate that
settlements under static loads will be no more than ½ inch. Most of this settlement will occur
during construction as the loads are applied. Settlement under the design seismic load could total
an additional ¼ inch.
4.4 FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS
The proposed fire station and retaining wall should be supported on spread footings or mat
foundations designed for a maximum allowable bearing pressure of 3,000 pounds per square
foot. For short-term wind and seismic loading conditions, the allowable bearing pressure may be
increased by 1/3. Footings should have a minimum width of 24 inches and should bear at least
18 inches below the lowest adjacent finished grade. Individual footing subgrades should be
compacted with a hoepac prior to placement of formwork, steel, or concrete. The footings
should be supported on a minimum of 1-foot of structural fill placed directly over the compacted
native soils. Where needed, structural fill should consist of Crushed Surfacing Top Course
(CSTC) as specified in Section 9-03.9(3) of the WSDOT Standard Specifications (WSDOT,
2016). Any soft or disturbed soils and any soil containing organic material (unsuitable material)
should be removed under the observation of an HWA engineer or geo-technician to verify
competent native soils are exposed.
Wind and seismic transient lateral forces on the structure will be resisted by friction along the
footings, and by passive soil pressure against the buried portions of the footings. An ultimate
coefficient of friction of 0.5 may be assumed for cast-in-place concrete on granular material.
Also, a passive resistance to lateral loads maybe estimated as an equivalent fluid pressure of 250
pcf. These are ultimate resistance values, and an adequate factor of safety should be applied in
design calculations.
Perimeter footing drains should be installed around the entire building exterior. The perimeter
footing drains should consist of 4-inch diameter, perforated or slotted, rigid plastic pipes, bedded
and backfilled with Gravel Backfill for Drains, as specified in Section 9-03.12(4) of the 2016
WSDOT Standard Specifications. Footing drain inverts should be at least 12 inches lower than
the bottom of floor slabs. Footing drains should be sloped to drain into an appropriate outlet,
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 8 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
such that storm water cannot backup around the footings. Roof drains should not be tied into the
perimeter drain system to prevent potential backup into the perimeter drains during intense storm
events. The ground surface should be graded to direct surface water away from the structures.
4.4.1 Slab-On-Grade Recommendations
The slab-on-grade should be supported on a minimum of 1-foot of structural fill placed directly
over the compacted native soils. Structural fill should consist of Crushed Surfacing Top Course
(CSTC). Any soft or disturbed soils and any soil containing organic material (unsuitable
material) should be removed under the observation of an HWA engineer or geo-technician to
verify competent native soils are exposed. Because the ground surface slopes down to the west,
the structural fill thickness will likely vary across the slab footprint. If the fill material is poor or
if compaction is inadequate, the variable structural fill thickness could lead to differential
settlement in the fill, resulting in the formation of cracks greater than the tolerable limits for the
serviceability of the apparatus bay floor.
The recommended structural fill should be compacted to at least 95% of its maximum dry
density, based on the Modified Proctor Test.
Slab-on-grade floors should be underlain by a capillary break layer consisting of at least 6 inches
of washed 3/8-inch pea gravel. A 10-mil (minimum thickness) plastic vapor barrier should be
placed over this capillary break layer. Joints in the vapor barrier should overlap at least 2 feet or
be sealed with adhesive or double-sided tape in accordance with the manufacturer’s
recommendations. A 2-inch thick layer of concrete sand may be placed over the vapor barrier to
protect the vapor barrier and to provide for more uniform concrete curing. Placement of the
vapor barrier should be undertaken with care, and construction activity on the membrane should
be limited after placement to avoid perforations in the membrane.
4.5 RETAINING WALL
It is our understanding that a 3-foot tall, cast-in-place retaining wall will be required at the east
side of the fire station property to accommodate changes in grade. The location of the wall is
shown on the Site and Exploration Plan, Figure 2. Wall design should provide resistance for the
lateral earth pressures from the retained soil. For wall design, the at-rest lateral earth pressure for
design of the wall should be 57 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). This earth pressure assumes that the
wall is backfilled with well compacted structural fill. This assumes that no ground water
pressures develop behind the wall, which is appropriate assuming adequate drainage measures
are provided. We recommend the Contractor be required to submit the proposed wall design for
approval by the Engineer.
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 9 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
4.5.1 Wall Drainage
Drainage should be provided to prevent the buildup of hydrostatic pressures behind all retaining
walls. Drainage should consist of a perforated drain pipe along the base of the wall, embedded
in Gravel Backfill for Drains, per WSDOT Standard Specification Section 9-03.12(4) (WSDOT,
2016). The drain pipe should be graded to direct water from the backfill and subgrade soils to a
suitable outlet.
4.5.2 General Wall Subgrade Preparation
Subgrade preparation is important to limit differential settlement of the wall and maintain global
stability. All organic material should be removed. Loose or soft soils, defined as being
penetrable more than 1 foot with a 1/2-inch diameter rod pushed in under a 150 lb load (T-probe
pushed in by hand), should be removed and replaced with structural backfill or be suitably
compacted. The area on which the wall will rest should be graded level perpendicular to the wall
face and compacted in accordance with WSDOT Standard Specifications Section 2-03.3(14)D
(WSDOT, 2016). It should be noted that 5 to 7 feet of loose/soft silt material was encountered in
our explorations. This material is not suitable for wall base. Therefore, we recommend the wall
be founded on a 1-foot thick leveling pad constructed of compacted Crushed Surfacing Top
Course (CSTC) placed over compacted native soils.
Fill against an existing slope will require terraced cuts as outlined in WSDOT Standard
Specifications Section 2-03.3(14), Embankment Construction (WSDOT, 2016).
4.6 BELOW-GRADE STRUCTURES
All below grade structures should be designed with consideration of the anticipated lateral earth
pressures that will be applied on the structures. We expect that these buried structures will not
be free to yield and will develop at-rest earth pressures upon backfilling. These structures should
be designed to resist an equivalent fluid pressure of at least 60 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). This
earth pressure assumes no accumulation of water behind the wall. Proper drainage should be
provided to ensure that hydrostatic pressures do not develop behind these structures. Where
drainage is not provided, the structure should be designed for an allowable equivalent fluid
pressure of 120 pcf.
Under earthquake loading conditions, the buried structures will experience an incremental
additional horizontal earth pressure. This increment can be approximated using the Mononobe-
Okabe method utilizing 0.5 times the PGA for the site, (0.5)(0.385g) = 0.19g. This results in a
design active-plus-seismic earth pressure coefficient, Kae = 0.37. For design purposes, a design
active-plus-seismic equivalent fluid pressure of 52 pcf would be slightly less than the
recommended at-rest pressure of 60 pcf.

4.7 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
It is our understanding that the City would like to utilize onsite infiltration as a means of
stormwater management for the project. On-site stormwater management will be implemented
via a bioretention pond and permeable pavement. Pilot Infiltration Testing (PIT) was performed
in general accordance with the King County, Washington, Surface Water Design Manual (King
County, 2016). HWA conducted a PIT at a depth of 7 feet bgs in the vicinity of the proposed
bioretention pond, north of borehole BH-5 on the northeast corner of the proposed fire station.
The bottom of the PIT was at approximately 7 feet below existing ground surface. Ground water
was measured in the nearby borehole piezometer BH-1 at 46.6 in November 2016. Therefore,
the depth to ground water below the proposed pond bottom readily exceeds the minimum 3-foot
vertical separation requirement. Also, the minimum requirement of 3 feet of permeable soil
beneath the infiltration facility was confirmed by digging 6 feet deep through the PIT test surface
to a total depth of 13 feet after the test. No perching water was observed when test pitting
through the bottom of the PIT.
Discharge into the excavation stabilized approximately 1 hours into the test, at a flow rate of 1.25
gallons per minute (gpm).
Based on the test results, we recommend a long-term infiltration rate of 1.1 in/hr, assuming the
removal of the upper 7 feet of soil (silty material).
4.8 BIORETENTION POND CONSTRUCTION
The project proposes a 20-feet long by 18-feet wide bioretention pond, with a total designed
volume of 122 cubic feet. The bioretention area consists of 18-inches of bioretention soil mix
underlain by 18-inches of drain rock over the native subgrade. However, sandy silt soils with
high percentage of fines were encountered near the ground surface (about 5-7 feet below ground
surface). These soils are not conducive to infiltration. Therefore, we recommend over-
excavating the fine-grained material (sandy silt soils) and backfilling with permeable ballast, per
WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.9(2). The granular material placed underneath the
bioretention pond should be compacted lightly while keeping compaction equipment movement
over the bioretention pond subgrade to a minimum.
4.9 PAVEMENT
It is our understanding that a 16 to 24 feet wide access road will be designed and constructed to
provide access to maintenance vehicles as shown on the Site and Exploration Plan, Figure 2.
This access road will consist of a combination of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) and pervious
concrete. We understand that this road will be used primarily by service vehicles and not by
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 11 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
heavy equipment or heavy trucks. Therefore, for the HMA portion, we recommend a new
pavement section consisting of 4 inches of HMA over 6 inches of compacted Crushed Surfacing
Base Course (CSBC), as shown in Table 2.
Table 2. Structure Requirements for New HMA Pavement
Material Description Minimum Layer
Thickness (inches)
WSDOT Standard
Specification
HMA 4 5-04
CSBC 6 9-03.9(3)
Structural Fill/Prepared
Subgrade Proof-roll 9-03.14(1)
The pavement layer thicknesses given in Table 2 do not account for heavy construction traffic.
If a significant volume of construction traffic (mainly fully-loaded trucks) will operate over the
completed base before placement of the surfacing, or if the moisture content of the subgrade is
elevated as result of rainfall, then heaving and rutting could occur. In such cases, the thickness
of base, or structural fill, should be increased. One to two feet of structural fill/quarry spalls may
be required below the CSBC to provide a base for the compacted materials above.
We recommend that the asphalt layers consist of HMA Class ½-inch. The maximum lift
thickness for HMA Class ½-inch is 0.3 feet (or 3.6 inches), as stipulated by WSDOT (WSDOT,
2016).
4.9.1 Placement of HMA
Placement of HMA should be in accordance with Section 5-04 of the WSDOT Standard
Specifications (WSDOT, 2016). Particular attention should be paid to the following:
HMA should not be placed until the engineer has accepted the previously constructed
pavement layers.
HMA should not be placed on any frozen or wet surface.
HMA should not be placed when precipitation is anticipated before the pavement can
be compacted, or before any other weather conditions which could prevent proper
handling and compaction of HMA.
HMA should not be placed when the average surface temperatures are less than 45o F.
HMA temperature behind the paver should be in excess of 240o F. Compaction
should be completed before the mix temperature drops below 180o F. Comprehensive
temperature records should be kept during the HMA placement.
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 12 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
For cold joints, tack coat should be applied to the edge to be joined and the paver
screed should be set to overlap the first mat by 1 to 2 inches.
4.9.2 HMA Drainage
It is essential to the satisfactory performance of the roadway that good drainage is provided to
prevent water ponding alongside the pavement causing saturation of the pavement and subgrade
layers. The base layers should be graded to prevent water being trapped within the layer. The
surface of the pavement should be sloped to convey water from the pavement to appropriate
drainage facilities.
4.9.3 Pervious Concrete Pavement Design
It is our understanding that a section of the access road and the parking area located north of the
fire station will consist of pervious concrete pavement. It should be noted that sandy silt soils
with high percentage of fines were encountered near the ground surface (about 5-7 feet below
ground surface). These soils are not conducive to infiltration. Therefore, we recommend over-
excavating the upper fine-grained material (sandy silt soils) to expose the clean native soils and
backfilling with permeable ballast, per WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.9(2) (WSDOT,
2016). The granular material placed underneath the pervious pavement should be compacted to
a dense and unyielding condition while keeping compaction equipment movement over the
subgrade to a minimum.
In general, pervious pavement sections consist of a wearing course, a choker course, a recharge
bed course, and a carefully prepared subgrade. Regardless of the type of the wearing course
used, the size and composition of the remaining courses are generally the same. Table 3 presents
our recommendations for the pervious concrete pavement section.
The following sections provide our recommendations for each component of the pervious
pavement section.

4.9.4 Pervious Portland Cement Concrete
Based on the anticipated light loading conditions and the nature of pervious concrete pavement,
it is our recommendation that this pavement section consist of a minimum of 6 inches of
pervious Portland cement concrete pavement.
Pervious Portland cement concrete is typically a proprietary product that is available from many
local concrete batch plants. In general, the pervious concrete mix uses uniformly graded crushed
coarse aggregate (e.g. meeting AASHTO grading No. 8) with no, or limited use of, fine
aggregate and a water/cement ratio ranging from 0.27 to 0.35. The 28-day compressive strength
of the mix is typically between 2,500 psi and 4,000 psi with an average modulus of rupture of
about 350 to 375 psi. The unit weight of the mix is between 100 and 125 pcf with a porosity of
15% to 25%. The initial permeability of the hardened product is between 300 and 800 in/hr.
We recommend that expansion joints be saw cut into the concrete at spacings of no greater than
12 feet to limit post construction cracking. These joints need not be sealed. Maintenance
practices for cleaning pervious concrete should be implemented to maintain permeability. Some
cleaning techniques are pressure washing, vacuum sweeping and/or a combination of these two
methods.
4.9.5 Recharge Bed Design and Subgrade Preparation
Recharge beds under pervious pavements should be adequately sized to provide sufficient
storage during the 2-year design storm, and should also include an overflow system (or under-
drain system) to handle peaks of more intense (25 or 50-year) storms. Typical bed thicknesses
range between 1.5 feet and 3 feet.
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 14 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
The drain aggregate in the recharge bed should consist of 1 inch to 1.5 inch crushed, washed
drain rock, or 1.5 to 2.5 inch washed crushed base aggregate such as AASHTO No. 2. The
coarse gravel should be placed in 8-inch thick (maximum) loose lifts with each layer compacted
to a dense and unyielding condition while keeping compaction equipment movement over
recharge bed subgrade to a minimum. A design value of 0.3 should be used for the porosity of
the base aggregate.
A 1-inch thick choker course consisting of uniformly graded gravel, such as size AASHTO
No.57 aggregate, should be placed over the surface of the recharge bed to provide a platform for
the porous wearing surface.
A nonwoven geotextile meeting the material requirements of WSDOT Standard Specifications
(WSDOT, 2016) Section 9-33.1, with the properties listed in Section 9-33.2(1) Table 3 for
Separation, should be placed along the sides of the excavation between the native and the drain
aggregate to prevent migration of fines into the recharge bed. The nonwoven geotextile should
not be placed below the pervious wearing surface over the top of the recharge bed aggregate.
Placing nonwoven geotextile below the pervious wearing surface could result in clogging of the
geotextile over time, reducing the functionality of the system.
4.10 SITE EARTHWORK RECOMMENDATIONS
4.10.1 Structural Fill and Compaction
All fill placed at this site should be considered structural fill. Structural fill materials should
consist of clean, free-draining granular soils, which are free of organic matter or other deleterious
materials. The native soils along the project alignment are not suitable for reuse as structural fill
for this project. Structural fill materials should be less than 4 inches in maximum particle
dimension, with less than 7 percent fines (portion passing the U. S. Standard No. 200 sieve), as
specified for Gravel Borrow in Section 9-03.14(1) of the WSDOT Standard Specifications
(WSDOT, 2016) or Crushed Surfacing Top Course (CSTC) as specified in Section 9-03.9(3) of
the WSDOT Standard Specifications (WSDOT, 2016). The fine-grained portion of structural fill
soils should be non-plastic.
All fill, except for fill required underneath the pervious concrete and bioretention pond, should
be placed in lifts and compacted to at least 95 percent of the maximum dry density, as
determined using test method ASTM D 1557 (Modified Proctor). The thickness of loose lifts
should not exceed 8 inches for heavy weight compactors and 4 inches for hand-operated
equipment.
The procedure to achieve the specified minimum relative compaction depends on the size and
type of compacting equipment, the number of passes, thickness of the layer being compacted,
and certain soil properties. We recommend that the appropriate lift thickness, and the adequacy
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 15 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
of the subgrade preparation and materials compaction be evaluated by a representative of the
geotechnical engineer during construction. A sufficient number of in-place density tests should
be performed as the fill is being placed to verify that the required compaction is achieved.
4.10.2 Excavation and Temporary Shoring
Excavations for the new foundations and below grade structures can be accomplished with
conventional excavating equipment such as backhoes. We recommend that foundation
excavation be accomplished with a smooth (toothless) bucket to minimize disturbance of
subgrade soils. Any loosened or disturbed soils should be removed.
It is our understanding that the proposed storm water facility is to extend approximately 9 feet
below existing grade. Sloped excavations and/or standard trench box shoring may be used as
means of temporary shoring.
The maintenance of safe working conditions, including temporary excavation stability, is the
responsibility of the contractor. In accordance with Part N of Washington Administrative Code
(WAC) 296-155, latest revisions, all temporary cuts in excess of 4 feet in height must be either
sloped or shored prior to entry by personnel. The existing granular soils on site are generally
classified as Type C soils, per WAC 296-155. Where shoring is not used, temporary cuts in
Type C soils should be sloped no steeper than 1½H:1V (horizontal: vertical).
It is important that the contractor monitors the stability of temporary cut slopes and adjusts the
construction schedule and slope inclination accordingly.
4.10.3 Wet Weather Earthwork
During period of wet weather, even the most permeable soils can become difficult to work and
compact. Given that the near surface soils across most of the site consist of recessional outwash
sand, we expect variability in the fines content of these native soils. Soils with higher fines
contents will be hard to compact when above a given moisture content (generally about 10 to 12
percent moisture). As a result, the moisture content of these soils may be difficult to control
during periods of wet weather. If fill is to be placed or earthwork is to be performed in wet
weather or under wet conditions, the following recommendations apply:
• Earthwork should be accomplished in small sections to minimize exposure to wet
weather. Excavation or the removal of unsuitable soil should be followed promptly
by the placement and compaction of a suitable thickness of clean structural fill or lean
concrete. The size and type of construction equipment used may need to be limited to
prevent soil disturbance;
• Material used as structural fill should consist of clean, granular soil, of which not
more than 5 percent by dry weight passes the U.S. Standard No. 200 sieve, based on
December 21, 2017
HWA Project No. 2016-136-21
Renton FS 15 - Revised Final Report 12212017 16 HWA GEOSCIENCES INC.
wet sieving the fraction passing the ¾-inch sieve; this is an additional restriction for
the structural fill materials described in Section 4.10.1. The fine-grained portion of
the structural fill soils should be non-plastic;
• The ground surface within the construction area should be sloped and sealed with a
smooth drum vibratory roller to promote rapid runoff of precipitation and to prevent
ponding of water;
• No soil should be left uncompacted so it can absorb water. Soils which become too
wet for compaction should be removed and replaced with clean granular materials;
and
• Excavation and placement of fill should be observed on a full-time basis by a person
experienced in wet weather earthwork to verify that all unsuitable materials are
removed and suitable compaction and site drainage are achieved.
The above recommendations for wet weather earthwork should be incorporated into the
contract specifications.

APPENDIX B
LABORATORY TESTING
Representative soil samples obtained from the explorations were returned to the HWA
laboratory for further examination and testing. Laboratory tests were conducted on
selected soil samples to characterize relevant engineering properties of the on-site
materials. The laboratory testing program was performed in general accordance with
appropriate ASTM Standards as outlined below.
MOISTURE CONTENT: The moisture contents of selected soil samples were determined
in general accordance with ASTM D 2216. The results are shown at the sampled
intervals on the appropriate summary logs in Appendix A.
PARTICLE SIZE ANALYSIS OF SOILS: The particle size distribution of selected soil
samples was determined in general accordance with ASTM D422. The results are
summarized on the attached Grain Size Distribution reports, Figures B-1 through B-7,
which also provide information regarding the classification of the sample, and the
moisture content at the time of testing.

GEOTECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
PERMEABLE PAVEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
RENTON FIRE STATION 15, RENTON, WA
To: SSW Architects
Attn: Mary Jo Lux, AIA
From: Sandy Brodahl, P.E., HWA GeoSciences Inc.
Date: January 30, 2018
______________________________________________________________________________
This memorandum provides geotechnical recommendations in support of the design infiltration
facilities and permeable pavement for the Renton Fire Station project in Renton Washington. It
is our understanding that a bioretantion pond and pervious concrete pavement will be designed
considering stormwater quantity, quality using BMP’s in compliance with City of Renton 2016
Surface Design Manual (RSWDM). The near surface soils at both locations (for the bioretantion
pond and permeable pavement are not conducive of infiltration. Therefore, we recommend over-
excavating the upper fine-grained material (sandy silt soils) to expose the clean native soils and
backfilling with permeable ballast meeting the requirements per WSDOT Standard Specification
9-03.9(2) (WSDOT, 2016).
The RSWDM requires that runoff from pollution generating surfaces be infiltrated into soils that
meet the groundwater protection criteria specified on Section 1.2.8: Core Requirement #8: Water
Quality Facilities. To determine if the soils meet the required criteria, HWA performed cation
exchange capacity (CEC) and organic content (OC) tests (test results attached) on the subgrade
soils beneath the proposed infiltration facility. The results of the laboratory testing is summarized
in Table 1, below.

BH-4, S-5 1.3%
BH-6, S-7 1.4%
HWA Project No. 2016-136 January 30, 2018
Page 2 of 4
The CEC and OC test results indicated that both soils exceeded the requirements for treatability
for CEC (5 meq/cc) and OC (0.5% by weight). In addition, the infiltration rate determined for
the subgrade soils beneath the proposed infiltration facility (1.1 in/hr) does not exceed the
maximum allowed for treatment of 2.4 in/hr. Therefore, we conclude that soils beneath the
proposed infiltration facility meet the criteria required by the Soil treatment Exemption (No. 4)
of Section 1.2.8, of the RSWDM.
Pervious Concrete Pavement Design Recommendations
In general, pervious pavement sections consist of; a wearing course, a choker course, a recharge
bed course, placed over carefully prepared subgrade. Regardless of the type of the wearing
course used, the size and composition of the remaining courses are generally the same. Table 1
presents our recommendations for the pervious concrete pavement section.
It should be noted that sandy silt soils containing a high percentage of fine material were
encountered near the ground surface (about 5-7 feet below ground surface). These soils are not
conducive to infiltration. Therefore, we recommend over-excavating the upper fine-grained
material (sandy silt soils) to expose the clean native soils and backfilling with permeable ballast
meeting the requirements per WSDOT Standard Specification 9-03.9(2) (WSDOT, 2016). The
granular material placed underneath the pervious pavement should be compacted to a dense and
unyielding condition while keeping compaction equipment movement over the subgrade to a
minimum.
The following sections provide our recommendations for each component of the pervious
pavement section.

Pervious Portland Cement Concrete
Based on the anticipated light loading conditions and the nature of pervious concrete pavement,
it is our recommendation that this pavement section consist of a minimum of 6 inches of
pervious Portland cement concrete pavement.
Pervious Portland cement concrete is typically a proprietary product that is available from many
local concrete batch plants. In general, the pervious concrete mix uses uniformly graded crushed
coarse aggregate (e.g. meeting AASHTO grading No. 8) with no, or limited use of, fine
aggregate and a water/cement ratio ranging from 0.27 to 0.35. The 28-day compressive strength
of the mix is typiclly between 2,500 psi and 4,000 psi with an average modulus of rupture of
about 350 to 375 psi. The unit weight of the mix is between 100 and 125 pcf with a porosity of
15% to 25%. The initial permeability of the hardened product is between 300 and 800 in/hr.
We recommend that expansion joints be saw cut into the concrete at spacings of no greater than
12 feet to limit post construction cracking. These joints need not be sealed. Maintenance
practices for cleaning pervious concrete should be implemented to maintain permeability. Some
cleaning techniques are pressure washing, vacuum sweeping and/or a combination of these two
methods.
Recharge Bed Design and Subgrade Preparation
Recharge beds under pervious pavements should be adequately sized to provide sufficient
storage during the 2-year design storm, and should also include an overflow system (or under-
drain system) to handle peak inflows of more intense (25 or 50-year) storms. Typical bed
thicknesses range between 1.5 feet and 3 feet.
The drain aggregate in the recharge bed should consist of 1 inch to 1.5 inch crushed, washed
drain rock, or 1.5 to 2.5 inch washed crushed base aggregate meeting the gradation requirements
for AASHTO No. 2. The coarse gravel should be placed in 8-inch thick (maximum) loose lifts
with each layer compacted to a firm and unyielding condition while keeping compaction
equipment movement over recharge bed subgrade to a minimum. A design value of 0.3 should
be used for the porosity of the base aggregate.
A 1-inch thick choker course consisting of uniformly graded gravel, such as size AASHTO
No.57 aggregate, should be placed over the surface of the recharge bed to provide a platform for
the porous wearing surface.
A nonwoven geotextile meeting the material requirements of WSDOT Standard Specifications
(WSDOT, 2016) Section 9-33.1, with the properties listed in Section 9-33.2(1) Table 3 for
Separation, should be placed along the sides of the excavation between the native and the drain
aggregate to prevent migration of fines into the recharge bed. The nonwoven geotextile should
HWA Project No. 2016-136 January 30, 2018
Page 4 of 4
not be placed below the pervious wearing surface over the top of the recharge bed aggregate.
Placing nonwoven geotextile below the pervious wearing surface could result in clogging of the
geotextile over time, reducing the functionality of the system.
