ENVIRONMENTAL (SEPA) DETERMINATION OF
NON-SIGNIFICANCE - MITIGATED (DNS-M)
PROJECT NUMBER: LUA19-000015, ECF, SM
APPLICANT: Stephanie Modjeski, Otak, Inc., 2731 Westmore Ave, Unit #300, Everett, WA

PROJECT NAME: May Creek Trail Extension Project
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The City of Renton is requesting a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit (SM)
and Environmental (SEPA) Review to expand the existing May Creek Trail. The project proposes to construct a six-foot
wide trail extension from the existing May Creek Trail on the west side of Interstate-405 (I-405) to Jones Ave NE on the
east side of I-405. The new pedestrian-use only trail extension would tie into the I-405, Renton to Bellevue Widening and
Express Toll Lanes project under the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) project. WSDOT's project
is anticipated to begin in 2019 and end in 2024. May Creek is a tributary of Lake Washington and the project is located
0.32 miles east of the lake. The project would occur above the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) and would be
constructed approximately 20 to 90 feet north of May Creek. The trail extension project would be located within May
Creek Reaches B and C and is designated as Urban Conservancy. The project is proposing to enhance the stream buffer
along the trail east of I-405. The project would also remove two non-native black locust trees adjacent to Jones Ave NE.
The trail section within WSDOT right-of-way, beneath the I-405 overpass, was permitted separately.
PROJECT LOCATION: May Creek Trail, Parcel Nos. 322405-9109 and -9010

Department of Community & Economic Development
The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee has determined that it does not have a probable significant adverse
impact on the environment. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c).
Conditions were imposed as mitigation measures by the Environmental Review Committee under their authority of
Section 4-9-070D Renton Municipal Code. These conditions are necessary to mitigate environmental impacts identified
during the environmental review process. Because other agencies of jurisdiction may be involved, the lead agency will not
act on this proposal for fourteen (14) days.
Appeals of the environmental determination must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 p.m. on May 10, 2019. Appeals
must be filed in writing together with the required fee with: Hearing Examiner, City of Renton, 1055 South Grady Way,
