PERMITS/REVIEW REQUESTED: Hearing Examiner Noise Variance
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant is requesting a Noise Variance to work during night and weekend
hours beyond the days and hours permitted in Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-4-030 to complete Olympic’s pipeline
inspection project. Olympic Pipe Line Company LLC (Olympic) operates a 12-inch-diameter pipeline that transports
petroleum products through Western Washington, including through the City of Renton (Renton). The 12-inch diameter
pipeline was recently internally inspected utilizing an in-line inspection (ILI) tool. Olympic is required by the U.S. DOT
Office of Pipeline Safety to excavate and visually inspect sections of the pipeline where the internal inspection data
indicates an anomaly so that any established repair criteria can be met. The internal pipeline inspection identified one
anomaly on the 12-inch pipeline within the pipeline casing below the southbound/eastbound travel lane of Renton
Avenue South, east of South 132nd Street. The anomaly must be inspected and repaired (if necessary). Olympic also will
install a new vent and test wires to the existing steel casing at this site to allow for cathodic protection monitoring of the
pipeline within the casing, also an activity required by the U.S. DOT Office of Pipeline Safety. Olympic requests that the
work be allowed during extended nighttime work from Monday through Saturday between 8:00 pm and 7:00 am,
Saturday daytime hours (from 7:00 am to 9:00 am), Saturday nighttime hours (from 8:00 pm to 12:00 am) and up to a
24-hour work day on Sunday to meet the project schedule. The project schedule as currently planned is 7 days and 6
nights.
