Environmental Impacts The Proposal was circulated and reviewed by various City Departments and Divisions to determine whether or not the applicant has adequately identified and addressed environmental impacts anticipated to occur in conjunction with the proposed development. Staff reviewers have identified that the proposal is likely to have the following probable impacts: 1. Earth Impacts: Erosion of soils could occur as part of the demolition. The site is essentially flat with underlying soils being made up of fill material with ancient riverbed gravel. Surrounding the demolition area is impervious surface paving. Erosion would be limited to the specific areas of work. Development Engineering will condition the proposal such that an erosion control plan shall be submitted and approved prior to demolition permit approval. Erosion control shall be in place and inspection approved prior to disturbance of soil on site. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. 2. Air Impacts: During demolition temporary emissions from machinery and vehicle exhaust plus dust from demolition of the structures will be present but is expected to be minimal, localized to the area and will not continue past time of demolition. The structures are not currently proposed to be replaced, and there is no anticipation of increased emissions generated from additional vehicles accessing the area. The Puget Sound Clean Air Agency made comment regarding clean air regulations that may be applicable (Exhibit 7) but did not request additional permits be made. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is recommended.

Water a. Wetland, Streams, Lakes Impacts: A portion of the easterly most structure (500 E. Perimeter Rd) is within 200 feet of the Cedar River. The project scope is limited to demolition; per RMC 4-11-040 the definition of development within shoreline jurisdiction does not include dismantling or removing of structures if there is no other associated development or redevelopment. As such, shoreline review is not required. The structures are separate from the river by E. Perimeter Rd. All work will occur west of this road. Erosion of soils could occur as part of the demolition that could make their way to the river. Development Engineering will condition the proposal such that an erosion control plan shall be submitted and approved prior to demolition permit approval. Erosion control shall be in place and inspection approved prior to disturbance of soil on site. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation is recommended. Nexus: Not applicable. E.
