Re: No Further Action at the following Site:
•Site Name: Stoneway Concrete Renton
•Site Address: 1915 Maple Valley Hwy, Renton, WA 98055
•Facility/Site No.: 62244377
•VCP Project No.: NWl 702
•Cleanup Site No.: 2121
Dear Jimmy Blais:
The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) received your request for an opinion on
your independent cleanup of the Stoneway Concrete Renton facility (Site). This letter provides
our opinion. We are providing this opinion under the authority of the Model Toxics Control Act
(MTCA), Chapter 70.105D RCW.
Issue Presented and Opinion
Is further remedial action necessary to clean up contamination at the Site?
NO. Ecology has determined that no further remedial action is necessary to clean
up contamination at the Site.
This opinion is dependent on the continued performance and effectiveness of t�e
post-cleanup controls and monitoring specified below.
This opinion is based on an analysis of whether the remedial action meets the substantive require
ments ofMTCA, Chapter 70.105D RCW, and its implementing regulations, Chapter 173-340
WAC ( collectively "substantive requirements of MTCA"). The analysis is provided below.

Description of the Site
This opinion applies only to the Site described below. The Site is defined by the nature and
extent of contamination associated with the following releases:
Gasoline-, diesel-, and oil-range petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH-G, TPH-D, and TPH-O), and
formaldehyde into Soil.
Formaldehyde, arsenic, and highly alkaline pH into Ground Water.
Enclosure A includes a detailed description and diagram of the Site, as currently known to
Ecology.
Please note a parcel of real property can be affected by multiple sites. At this time, we have no
information that the parcel(s) associated with this Site are affected by other sites.
Basis for the Opinion
This opinion is based on the information contained in the documents listed in Enclosure B.
Those documents are kept in the Central Files of the Northwest Regional Office of Ecology
(NWRO) for review by appointment only. You can make an appointment by completing a
Request for Public Record form (https://www.ecology.wa.gov/About-us/Accountability-
transparency/Public-records-requests) and emailing it to PublicRecordsOfficer@ecy.wa.gov, or
contacting the Public Records Officer at 360-407-6040. A number of these documents are
accessible in electronic form from the Site web page
(https://fortress.wa.gov/ecy/gsp/Sitepage.aspx?csid=2121).
This opinion is void if any of the information contained in those documents is materially false or
misleading.
Analysis of the Cleanup
Ecology has concluded that no further remedial action is necessary to clean up contamination
at the Site. That conclusion is based on the following analysis:
1. Characterization of the Site.
Ecology has determined your characterization of the Site is sufficient to establish cleanup
standards and select a cleanup action. The Site is described above and in Enclosure A.
The lateral and vertical extent of soil and ground water impacted by contaminant releases
at the Site have been adequately defined by completion of Site investigations conducted
DocuSign Envelope ID: 99BA427F-FE67-49CC-B142-9BE0760232C1

from September 1998 through July 2017. Also, the additional analysis provided in the
March 7, 2018 “Request for Written Opinion, Focused Feasibility Study and
Disproportionate Cost Analysis” addressed the Site characterization data gaps cited in the
August 31, 2017 “Further Action Opinion Letter” from Ecology. Site data has been
entered into Ecology’s electronic Environmental Information Management (EIM)
database.
2. Establishment of cleanup standards.
Soil
Cleanup Levels: The proposed future use of the Site (residential) does not meet the
MTCA definition of an industrial property; therefore, soil cleanup levels suitable for
unrestricted land use are appropriate. Soil cleanup levels based on protection of ground
water are appropriate. The MTCA Method A cleanup levels (TPH-G, TPH-D, and TPH-
O) and Method B cleanup levels (formaldehyde) are considered appropriate for soil at the
Site and are protective of human health and the environment.
Soil cleanup levels protective of terrestrial ecological receptors are not necessary because
the Site meets the Terrestrial Ecological Evaluation (TEE) exclusion criteria (MTCA
WAC 173-340-7491). The results of the TEE Evaluation Form worksheet indicated that
a TEE exclusion is applicable and that protective cleanup levels based on TEE factors are
not required for this Site.
Point of Compliance: For soil cleanup levels based on the protection of ground water, the
point of compliance is defined as Site-wide throughout the soil profile and may extend
below the water table. This is the appropriate point of compliance for the Site.
Soil Vapor
Formaldehyde in soil vapor was evaluated as a potential vapor intrusion (VI) issue, based
on detections of this chemical in soil vapor samples conducted at the Site in 2016. This
soil vapor sampling occurred after completion of the on-site removal and in-situ
treatment of formaldehyde-contaminated soil in 2010 (see Enclosure A), after
confirmation soil and ground water sampling showed concentrations below the Method B
cleanup levels. Formaldehyde does not have soil or ground water VI screening levels in
the current Ecology VI guidance. Based on this information and data, soil vapor was
eliminated as a contaminated media for this Site.

Ground Water
Cleanup Levels: MTCA Method A cleanup levels for arsenic and formaldehyde are the
applicable ground water cleanup levels for this Site. A ground water cleanup level for pH
does not exist; however, the maximum reported pH value in Site ground water (12.54)
was above the characteristic dangerous waste threshold of 12.5; therefore, pH is
considered to be a water quality parameter of concern at the Site.
Point of Compliance: Ecology has determined the conditional point of compliance
proposed for ground water at the Site (western Property boundary) is appropriate for the
Site, given the following:
Data documenting a consistent ground water flow direction away from the Cedar
River to the northwest has been provided to Ecology, and
It is not practicable to meet the cleanup level for arsenic and an acceptable
concentration of pH in ground water throughout the Site within a reasonable
restoration time frame, per WAC 173-340(8)(c), due to presence of high pH soils
in inaccessible Site areas.
3. Selection of cleanup action.
Ecology has determined the cleanup action you proposed for the Site meets the
substantive requirements of MTCA. The cleanup meets the minimum cleanup
requirements and does not exacerbate conditions or preclude reasonable cleanup
alternatives elsewhere at the Site.
4. Cleanup.
Ecology has determined the cleanup you performed meets the applicable Site cleanup
standards within the Property. The following cleanup actions were completed on the Site
(see Enclosure A for details and locations):
Removal and off-Site disposal of 200 cubic yards of high pH soil from the former
small settling pond in the southwest corner of the Site (Work Area 1).
Removal and off-Site disposal of 2,200 cubic yards of high pH soil from the large
settling ponds adjacent to the Cedar River (Work Area 2).
Removal and off-Site disposal of 190 cubic yards of oil-contaminated soil in an
area of shallow soil impacts east of the large settling ponds (Work Area 3).

Removal and on-Site bioremediation of 21,000 cubic yards of formaldehyde-
contaminated soil in the central area of the Site (Work Area 4).
Removal and off-Site disposal of a 600-gallon heating oil underground storage tank
and petroleum-contaminated soil (300 cubic yards) and ground water (3,000
gallons), in the northeast area of the Site (Work Area 5).
This determination is dependent on the continued performance and effectiveness of the
post-cleanup controls and monitoring specified below.
Post-Cleanup Controls and Monitoring
Post-cleanup controls and monitoring are remedial actions performed after the cleanup to
maintain compliance with cleanup standards. This opinion is dependent on the continued
performance and effectiveness of the following:
1. Compliance with institutional controls.
Institutional controls prohibit or limit activities that may interfere with the integrity of
engineered controls or result in exposure to hazardous substances. The following
institutional controls are necessary at the Site:
Containment of Soil and Ground Water. Contaminated soil and ground water beneath
ground surface at the Site is isolated from direct contact with potential receptors by
approximately 15 feet of uncontaminated soil. Existing or future buildings shall not
be constructed or altered in any manner that would expose contaminated soil or
ground water, result in a release of contaminants, or create a new exposure pathway,
without prior written approval of Ecology.
Groundwater Use. The groundwater beneath the Property shall not be extracted for
any purpose other than investigation, monitoring, or remediation performed in
accordance with requirements imposed by Ecology for the Site. Drilling of a well for
any water supply purpose on or beneath the Site is strictly prohibited.
Restrictions on Stormwater Infiltration. Construction of stormwater facilities that are
designed to infiltrate to groundwater, or that present the potential for leakage to
groundwater, are prohibited within the area of the Site where residual contaminants in
soil and groundwater are present and could be mobilized.

To implement these controls, an Environmental Covenant has been recorded on the
following parcel of real property in King County (Recording Number 20190716000692):
Tax Parcel 172305-9026
Ecology signed the recorded Covenant as Grantee. A copy of the Covenant is included in
Enclosure C to this opinion letter. Exhibit E of this Covenant is an Operation,
Maintenance, and Contingency that was approved by Ecology.
2. Performance of confirmational monitoring.
Confirmational ground water monitoring is necessary at the Site to confirm the long-term
effectiveness of the cleanup. The monitoring data will be used by Ecology during
periodic reviews of post-cleanup conditions. This plan was approved by Ecology and is
Exhibit D to the Covenant, which is included in Enclosure C to this opinion letter.
Periodic Review of Post-Cleanup Conditions
Ecology will conduct periodic reviews of post-cleanup conditions at the Site to ensure that they
remain protective of human health and the environment. If Ecology determines, based on a
periodic review, that further remedial action is necessary at the Site, then Ecology will withdraw
this opinion.
Listing of the Site
Based on this opinion, Ecology will remove the Site from our Confirmed and Suspected
Contaminated Sites List.
Limitations of the Opinion
1. Opinion does not settle liability with the state.
Liable persons are strictly liable, jointly and severally, for all remedial action costs and
for all natural resource damages resulting from the release or releases of hazardous
substances at the Site. This opinion does not:
Resolve or alter a person’s liability to the state.
Protect liable persons from contribution claims by third parties.

Page 7
To settle liability with the state and obtain protection from contribution claims, a person
must enter into a consent decree with Ecology under RCW 70.105D.040(4).
2. Opinion does not constitute a determination of substantial equivalence.
To recover remedial action costs from other liable persons under MTCA, one must
demonstrate that the action is the substantial equivalent of an Ecology-conducted or
Ecology-supervised action. This opinion does not determine whether the action you
performed is substantially equivalent. Courts make that determination. See RCW
70.105D.080 and WAC 173-340-545.
3. State is immune from liability.
The state, Ecology, and its officers and employees are immune from all liability, and no
cause of action of any nature may arise from any act or omission in providing this
opinion. See RCW 70.105D.030(1)(i).
Termination of Agreement
Thank you for cleaning up the Site under the Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP). This opinion
terminates the VCP Agreement governing this project (#NW1702).

Site Description
This section provides Ecology’s understanding and interpretation of Site conditions, and is the
basis for the opinions expressed in the body of this letter.
Site: Stoneway Concrete is located on King County parcel 1723059026 (the Property), which
occupies 12.54 acres situated between the Cedar River and SE Maple Valley Highway (Figure
1). The Site boundaries generally follow the Property boundaries.
Site History and Current Use: Historical records indicate that the Property was developed in
the 1930s as Stoneway Dock Company. The facility name changed to Stoneway Sand and Gravel
in the 1950s. During the 1950s and 1960s, the Property was reportedly leased by many
businesses, including an asphalt manufacturing company. By 1966, the Property was owned and
operated by Stoneway Concrete and in 1985 was purchased by Don Merlino.
The Property was most recently occupied by a concrete batch plant, along with associated
support activities (Figure 2). Operations on the Property ceased prior to October 2002 in order
to conform with the City of Renton aquifer protection ordinance, which precludes industrial
activities that use, handle, or store hazardous substances in Aquifer Protection Area Zone 1.
Sources of Contamination: Petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in soil due to historic
surface spillage and historic releases from underground storage tanks that have been removed.
Formaldehyde in soil and ground water is attributed to spills of a chemical additive associated
with the concrete batch process. Arsenic, detected in ground water above the cleanup level, was
not found in soil at concentrations exceeding natural background concentrations.
Physiographic Setting: The Site is relatively flat and slopes from an elevation of 50 feet above
mean sea level (amsl) adjacent to State Route 169 on the north to 40 feet amsl at the Cedar River
on the south. The Cedar River valley is very narrow in the Site vicinity and is bounded on the
north and south by steep valley walls that attain elevations of 300 to 400 feet amsl.
Surface/Storm Water System: The majority of the Property is currently paved with concrete
that is 4 - 12 inches thick. Unpaved areas are located in the eastern and western portions of the
Property. Storm sewer control is in place in the upper portion of the Property and the Property
has a storm water permit. Storm water in the lower portion of the Property drains to on-site
settlement ponds for infiltration. There are no point source discharges to the Cedar River.
Ecological Setting: Most of the Property’s river frontage is protected with erosion control
features such as riprap, cast-in-place concrete walls, "Ecology" blocks, and a poured concrete
veneer over the native soils. Very little of the original low bank frontage remains and there does
not appear to be a riparian habitat on the Property.
Geology: The Site is underlain by coarse sands and gravels deposited in the valley of the Cedar
River. The Cedar River valley is very narrow in the Site vicinity and is bounded by steep-sided
DocuSign Envelope ID: 99BA427F-FE67-49CC-B142-9BE0760232C1
valley walls comprised of glacial till overlying bedrock. The surface of the Site has been graded
over time and includes varying thicknesses of fill. The sand and gravel alluvium has been
observed in borings to a depth of 50 feet below ground surface (bgs), the deepest exploration on
the Site.
Ground Water: Ground water occurs under unconfined conditions in the sand and gravel
alluvium beneath the Site, in the regional, USEPA-designated Sole Source Cedar Valley Aquifer.
The City of Renton obtains the majority of the water supply from well fields in this aquifer,
located upstream and downstream from the Site. Local well logs indicate that this aquifer
extends to depths up to 72 feet bgs near the Site.
Depths to ground water at the Site range from 10 to 20 feet bgs. Data from detailed studies of
the aquifer by the City of Renton, and monitoring wells on the Site, confirm a consistent
northwesterly flow direction across the Site, away from the Cedar River. This reach of the Cedar
River loses a significant volume of surface water through the riverbed into the aquifer, resulting
in the down-valley ground water gradient to the northwest. Aquifer tests conducted in the City
of Renton wellfield (located within 700 feet northwest of the western Property boundary)
document that this prevailing ground water flow direction is not measurably affected by
pumpage in the well field.
Extent of Contamination and Remedial Actions: From 2005 through 2010, numerous
remedial actions regarding soil contamination have taken place at the Property (Figure 5), which
are summarized as follows:
Work Area 1- Former Small Settling Pond (southwest corner of Property). High pH soil
was present in this area. At total of 200 cubic yards was removed to a depth of 6 feet,
with the southwest area excavated to 8 feet. Sixteen performance samples indicated pH
at limits of excavation (sidewalls and floor) was 6.0-8.0.
Work Area 2 - Large Settling Ponds. The settling ponds are concrete lined and
approximately 15 feet deep. Approximately 2,200 cubic yards of high pH soil were
removed from within the settling ponds. Excavation was completed when the concrete
sidewalls and bottom were exposed. Because the Site was excavated to concrete, no
performance samples were collected. A small amount of high pH soil may remain below
and around the concrete settling ponds. Removing this material would involve
excavating in and adjacent to the Cedar River, which may pose a risk to salmon spawning
habitat and erosion of the bulkheads.
Work Area 3 - Shallow Petroleum Impacted Area. COCs for this area were TPHo and
TPHd. Impacted soil in this area was excavated to a depth of 4 feet. Approximately 190
cubic yards of TPHo contaminated soil were removed. Twelve performance samples
indicated TPHo and TPHd were below cleanup levels (ranging from less than detection
limits to 410 mg/kg).
DocuSign Envelope ID: 99BA427F-FE67-49CC-B142-9BE0760232C1
Work Area 4 - Formaldehyde Impacted Area. This area is the largest on the Site and
covers a major portion of the central area of the Property. The final size of this area at the
completion of soil excavation was 1.4 acres. The depth of excavation was to
approximately 11 feet bgs. Approximately 21,000 cubic yards of material were excavated
from the area, of which 13,000 cubic yards were bioremediated on-Site and the remainder
disposed off-Site.
Performance samples were collected and areas over excavated if a performance sample
was above the formaldehyde cleanup level. A total of 447 performance samples were
collected and analyzed from this area, with 238 samples representing final performance
samples. All final performance samples were below the cleanup level.
Work Area 5 - Heating oil UST. A 600-gallon UST was removed from this area. 300
cubic yards were removed from this area (24 feet x 24 feet) to a depth of 23 feet bgs.
During the remediation effort, approximately 3,000 gallons of water that accumulated in
the pit was removed. Eleven performance samples were collected. Only one of the
performance samples was above analytical detection levels, but below the cleanup level.
TPHd levels in the water that accumulated in the pit were 320 µg/L, below the ground
water cleanup level.
Concentrations of COCs in ground water are shown on Figure 5. As mentioned in the text of
this opinion letter, the present status of formaldehyde in ground water cannot be assessed,
because the laboratory detection limits for the most recent sampling events were greater than the
cleanup level of 5 µg/L. Elevated pH has been observed in monitoring well MW-10 since
January 2012 (ranging from 11.02 to 12.54).
