GENERAL INFORMATION Project Title: Total Cost: Total Eligible Cost: Ecology Share: Recipient Share: The Effective Date of this Agreement is: The Expiration Date of this Agreement is no later than: Project Type: City of Renton Stormwater Facility Retrofit Study 250,000.00 250,000.00 187,500.00 62,500.00 07/01 /2019 10/01/2021 Stormwater Facility Project Short Description: This project will improve water quality in multiple creeks within the Lake Washington watershed by identifying opportunities to modify existing City of Renton -owned Flow Control facilities to include Runoff Treatment benefits. The identified opportunities will then be evaluated and prioritized as potential future projects. This project will include conceptual designs for the three highest priority potential future projects. Project Long Description: Most of the City of Renton's existing Flow Control facilities are in residential areas. The Flow Control facilities reduce peak flows from roofs, driveways, sidewalks and streets in single-family neighborhoods but do not provide any Runoff Treatments since the areas were developed prior to implementation of Runoff Treatment requirements. Flow Control facilities in these areas connect to the municipal separate storm sewer system and drain to the closest water body. State of Washington Department of Ecology Page 2 of 37 Agreement No: WQC-2020-Renton-00016 Project Title: City of Renton Stormwater Facility Retrofit Study Recipient Name: City of Renton The existing Flow Control facilities are located in Black River, Cedar River, Johns Creek, Maplewood Creek, Panther Creek, Springbrook Creek, Big Soos Creek, Rolling Hills Creek, and Greenes Creek basins, which drain to Lake Washington. Priority water bodies on the 303(d) list are Lake Washington, Black River, Cedar River, Johns Creek, Maplewood Creek, May Creek, Panther Creek, Springbrook Creek, and Unnamed Creek, a tributary to Lake Washington. Lake Washington, Black River, Johns Creek, May Creek, and Unnamed Creek have water quality impairments for bacteria. The Cedar River exceeds the criteria for pH. Dissolved oxygen does not meet the water quality standards in the Black River, Cedar River, and Johns Creek and temperature exceeds water quality standards in all water bodies except Lake Washington. This project will identify opportunities to modify existing City -owned Flow Control facilities to include Runoff Treatment benefits. The identified opportunities will then be evaluated and prioritized as potential future projects. The potential future projects will benefit downstream waterways by providing Runoff Treatment following construction. Conceptual designs and cost estimates of the three highest -priority potential future projects will be developed for future design and construction. Green retrofit projects which promote natural hydrologic processes will be a top priority consideration at the project sites. The RECIPIENT will provide a conceptual design for the three highest -priority potential future projects using Ecology's 2014 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (or approved equivalent, as listed in Appendix 10 of the 2014 revision to the Phase I Municipal NPDES Stormwater Permit). Runoff Treatment facilities such as bioretention, combined detention and wetponds, and TAPE GULD devices will be evaluated. The treatment option(s) selected will be specific to each retrofit location, dependent on existing site criteria (available space, pollutants of concern, existing facility type, aquifer protection area, etc.). Overall Goal: This project will help protect and restore water quality in Washington State by reducing Stormwater impacts from existing infrastructure and development.

Architectural and Engineering Services: The RECIPIENT certifies by signing this agreement that the requirements of Chapter 39.80 RCW, "Contracts for Architectural and Engineering Services," have been, or shall be, met in procuring qualified architectural/engineering services. The RECIPIENT shall identify and separate eligible and ineligible costs in the final architectural/engineering services contract and submit a copy of the contract to ECOLOGY. B. Acquisition: The following provisions shall be in force only if the project described in this agreement is an acquisition project: a. Evidence of Land Value and Title. The RECIPIENT shall submit documentation of the cost of the property rights and the type of ownership interest that has been acquired. b. Legal Description of Real Property Rights Acquired. The legal description of the real property rights purchased with funding assistance provided through this agreement (and protected by a recorded conveyance of rights to the State of Washington) shall be incorporated into the agreement before final payment. c. Conveyance of Rights to the State of Washington. Upon purchase of real property rights (both fee simple and lesser interests), the RECIPIENT shall execute the document necessary to convey certain rights and responsibilities to ECOLOGY, on behalf of the State of Washington. The documents required will depend on the project type, the real property rights being acquired, and whether or not those rights are being acquired in perpetuity (see options below). The RECIPIENT shall use language provided by ECOLOGY, to record the executed document in the County where the real property lies, and to Template Version 10/30/2015 State of Washington Department of Ecology Page 17 of 37 Agreement No: WQC-2020-Renton-00016 Project Title: City of Renton Stormwater Facility Retrofit Study Recipient Name: City of Renton provide a copy of the recorded document to ECOLOGY. Documentation Options: 1. Deed of Right. The Deed of Right conveys to the people of the state of Washington the right to preserve, protect, and/or use the property for public purposes consistent with the fund source. RECIPIENTS shall use this document when acquiring real property rights that include the underlying land. This document may also be applicable for those easements where the RECIPIENT has acquired a perpetual easement for public purposes. The RECIPIENT must obtain ECOLOGY approval on the draft language prior to executing the deed of right. 2. Assignment of Rights. The Assignment of Rights document transfers certain rights such as access and enforcement to ECOLOGY. The RECIPIENT shall use this document when an easement or lease is being acquired for water quality and habitat conservation. The Assignment of Rights requires the signature of the underlying landowner and must be incorporated by reference in the easement document. 3. Easements and Leases. The RECIPIENT may incorporate required language from the Deed of Right or Assignment of Rights directly into the easement or lease document, thereby eliminating the requirement for a separate document. Language will depend on the situation; therefore, the RECIPIENT must obtain ECOLOGY approval on the draft language prior to executing the easement or lease. d. Real Property Acquisition and Relocation Assistance. 1. Federal Acquisition Policies. See Section 4 of this agreement for requirements specific to Section 319 and SRF funded projects. 2.

Housing and Relocation. In the event that housing and relocation costs, as required by federal law set out in subsection (1) above and/or state law set out in subsection (2) above, are involved in the execution of this project, the RECIPIENT agrees to provide any housing and relocation assistance required. e. Hazardous Substances. 1. Certification. The RECIPIENT shall inspect, investigate, and conduct an environmental audit of the proposed acquisition site for the presence of hazardous substances, as defined in RCW 70.105D.020(10), and certify: i. No hazardous substances were found on the site, or ii. Any hazardous substances found have been treated and/or disposed of in compliance with applicable state and federal laws, and the site is deemed "clean." 2. Responsibility.
