City Council
Renton, Washington
Dear Council Members :
In answer to a Council request for information about the ex ansion of II
the : Sternoff Metals Company operation in southwest Renton, ,,lease be
' advised as follows :
• 1 . The city' s bulk storage regulations , adopted in Sept_m-
ber 1975 do not apply retroactively and will have no
effect on the existing Sternoff operation.
2 . On October 16 , 1975 , the Sternoff Company applied for a
special permit to allow bulk storage uses of an H-i zoned
area of 2 . 5 acres adjacent to their existing operation;
the bulk storage regulations will apply to this expansion
area.
III
3 . Certain restrictive covenants in effect. since the original
H-1 zoning approval on February 27 , 1°67 , apply to both �
the original Sternoff site and the proposed expansion area.
4 . There has been a continuing dispute between the city and
the Sterhoff Company about compliance with the restrictive
covenants; the dispute has not been resolved to the cty ' s
satisfaction.
5 . Since an application is pending before the Planning
Commission, and because the bulk storage regulations I
applicable to the expansion area are more stringent than Ii
the covenant requirement , city action to enforce the
covenants has been delayed.
Legal action by the city may be required to obtain compliance with the
covenants , so it would be inappropriate to make further comments on
this matter at this time. The Council will be informed of future I�
city actions .
Sincerely,
Charles J./ Delaurenti

Gentlemen:
This letteriis written so there will be no misunder-
standing of the Shell Oil Company position on the proposed
BulkStorage Ordinance. At the Council Meeting of August
25 ,1 75 , there was some discussion regarding the waiver
by Slje.11 of their rights to be equally treated on the
application of standards that were being applied. Shell
does not waiveii;ts constitutional rights to equal treat-
ment. The Shell proposal contained in my letter of August
22 , 1975, framed; the issues in accordance with Judge Hunter' s
ruling and the Fiindings of Fact and Conclusions of Law entered
as a result of :that ruling.
The proposed ordinance was a bonafide attempt to propose
stan ards that would give Renton adequate safeguards to per-
mit a Petroleum Marketing Distribution Plant. It is not a
minimum ordinal a as can be seen by comparing this proposal
to both the Planning Department position and the Environmental
Impact Statements filed with the Shell application. The pro-1
posal will meet the zoning and environmental requirements of
the City of Renton.
Relative to equal application of standards which have
been proposed such as hydrocarbon emissions standards; noise
stanards; light standards, etc. ; we would again submit that '
thesed must be equally applied throughout ,the city. We be-
lieve that theOhydrocarbon emissions generated in any large
parking lot such as Boeing, Paccar, Longacres or shopping cen-
ter kite such as the one at the Sheraton Inn, exceed your
proposed emissions standards. Once again, unless there-is-
equal treatment, we intend to appeal the proposed standards
to the Courts.
The proposal set forth on August 22 , 1975 , together
with its various standards, including vapor recovery, ade-
quately safeguards the City of Renton and provides all
parties with an opportunity to proceed in this matter on
a legal,. and timely basis.
Very truly yours ,
— X.

of the City of Renton" is hereby created to read as follows :
Section 4-734 , Bulk !,Storage Facilities as Created :
4-734 Bulk Storage Facilities
1 . Intent. The intent of the regulation of bulk storage
facilities is; to allow such facilities in a location
Old manner so they are compatible with adjacent properties
apd beneficial to the City and in accordance with the
State Environmental Policy Act . It is further the
intent to insure that the safety , health , welfare ,
aesthetics and morals of the Community are maintained at
a high level . Due to the unique characteristics and
problems inherent in making bulk storage facilities
compatible with surrounding properties and environment ,
the City Council finds that special review of bulk storage
facilities is required to insure the intent of these
regulations ; and the City Council expressly finds that
in the Green : River Valley , City of Renton and surrounding
areas there has been a loss in air quality and that a
potential exists for a continuing deterioration in this
air quality due in part to the unique meteorological and
topographic 'characteristics such as the channeling and
holding of alir masses by inversions and the surrounding
Dills . This, degradation in air quality adversely effects
the liveability and desirability of the City and is
injurious to, the health and well -being of its citizens .
Those uses classified as a recognized higher risk have
higher standards applied to them including , but not
limited to ; 'landscaping , Traffic- and Access and Hazardous
Materials . 1These regulations are to supplement and be
in addition 'to existing ordinances and code provisions .
2 . Special Permit and Administration .
1 . Bulk stdrage facilities only may be allowed by special
permit' as specified in Section 4-722 ( B ) . The fee folr
the special permit for bulk storage facilities shall
be the basic fee plus ten ( 10 ) dollars for each acre;
or fraction thereof.
2 . The Planning Commission is designated as the official
agency of the City for the conduct of public hearings ;
and theiPlannina Department is responsible for the 1
generalladministration and coordination . The Planning
Department shall establish administrative procedures ,
which shall include , but are not limited to : prepara-
tion ofiapplication forms ; determining completeness
and acceptance of application ; and establishment of
interdepartmental review routing procedures .

3. The responsibility of producing information and data
to establish that the proposed bulk storage facility
complies with the standards setforth in this section
shall be on the applicant .
4 . The Planning Department shall be responsible for deter-
mining whether an application is a bulk storage facility
as defined herein . Such decision may be appealed to
the City Council within ten ( 10 ) calendar days after
such determination upon proper written notice filed
with the City Council .
3 . Height . The maximum height of all storage containers and
stock piles of bulk materials and/or products shall be forty
(40 ) feet or that of the structure height of the underlying
zone if more restrictive . The storage of bulk materials in
containers above manufacturing plants shall not be considered
as bulk storage , but shall be classified as part of the
supporting structure . No roof shall extend beyond five (5 )
percent slopes drawn from forty (40 ) foot high vertical
surfaces contiguous to the base of the structure . Only
accessory items such as , but not limited to : antennas ,
ladders , light fixtures , railings , vent pipes and safety
or health related items shall be excluded from the determina-
tion of structure height .
4 . Setbacks . All structures and bulk storage , except security
fences , opaque screens and signs shall be located at least
sixty (60 ) feet from all public right-of-ways , wildlife
habitat , public areas , parks and waterways which include ,
but is not limited to rivers , lakes , streams and drainage
channels . In all other instances the setbacks shall be at
least twenty ( 20 ) feet from the property line .
5 . Landscaping and Screening . The intent of landscaping and
screening is to minimize the visual impact of bulk storage
as viewed from adjacent or nearby properties or facilities
and to enhance the image of the industrial areas and the City.
1 . Recognized Higher Risk Storage . Those bulk storage uses which
are considered as having a recognized higher risk shall have a •
barrier as specified in Section 4-734 . 15 , Hazardous
Materials , with a screen that is at least eighty (80 )
percent opaque on top of the barrier and setback at
least twenty ( 20 ) feet from the property line . The
barrier shall have a maximum height of four (4 ) feet when
measured as in §4-734 . 15 . 3 . The combined height of the
four-foot (maximum) barrier and screen shall be at least
twenty-five ( 25 ) percent of the height of the bulk
storage provided such combination is at least six ( 6 )
feet high . An optional security fence shall have at
least a twenty ( 20 ) foot setback . All areas between
the property lines and the screen shall be landscaped
except for ingress and egress areas and except when a
second bulk storage facility has a contiguous side or
rear property line with an existing bulk storage facility
constructed to the standards specified in Section 4-734 .
The landscape plan shall be prepared by a licensed
landscape architect and approved by the Planning Department .
2 . Other Bulk Storage . Those bulk storage uses not included
in Section 4-734 . 5 . 1 above shall have a screen including
gates and shall be at least eighty (80 ) percent opaque
surrounding the property area . Said screen shall be
at least twenty-five ( 25 ) percent as high as the bulk
storage containers or stock piles provided said screen
is at least five ( 5 ) feet high . The screen and optional
security fence shall be setback at least twenty ( 20 )
feet from all property lines except that for those
bulk storage facilities whose total ownership is less
than two and one-half ( 21/2) contiguous acres in area ,
the Planning Department may reduce this setback up to
fifty ( 50 ) ,percent for good cause and upon proper
written application . All areas between the property
-2-
lines and the screen shall be landscaped except for
ingress and egress areas and except when a second
bulk storage facility has a contiguous side or rear
property line that abuts an existing bulk storage
facility constructed to the standards specified in
Section 4-734 provided there is at least a twenty
(20 ) foot landscaped strip . The landscape plan is
to be approved by the Planning Department . A land-
scaped berm may be used by itself or in combination
with a screen. provided the required height is met .
The ' slopesiof said berm shall be at least two ( 2 )
feet horizontal to one ( 1 ) foot vertical . There
shall be aFflat area on top of the berm with a minimum
width of two ( 2 ) feet . A retaining wall may be substi -
tuted for the internal side of the berm provided the
retaining wall is approved by a licensed engineer .
3 . Landscaping Maintenance . The maintenance of landscaping
shall be 'a'ssured prior to the issuance of a building
permit by requiring one of the following four options ;
(a ) the posting of a performance bond for one hundred
fifty ( 150) percent of the estimated cost of main-
tenance of: landscaping for a three ( 3 ) year period ,
( b ) the depositing with the City Clerk of a certified
or cashierl' s check for one hundred fifty ( 150 ) percent
of the estimated cost of maintenance of landscaping
for a three (3 ) year period , (c ) filing with the City
Clerk a copy of a service contract for maintenance
of landscaping for a three ( 3 ) year period , or (d )
such other written commitments that will assure satis-
factory maintenance of landscaping for a three ( 3 )
year period . Any of the four (4 ) options above are
to be approved as to legal form prior to acceptance by
the City . Landscaping is to be maintained in a healthy ,
neat manner and shall be subject to periodic inspectiop
by the City.
6 . Signs . The only identification signs permitted shall be
one ( 1 ) sign per street frontage that shall be four (4)
feet in height or less , with a maximum of two ( 2 ) faces
and no more than thirty ( 30 ) square feet per face . Such
signs may, be illuminated by external lights . Exit and
entrance signs four (4 ) square feet in area or less may
be placed at street entrances .
7 . Locational Criteria . The Planning Commission shall review
the impact of, the proposed use to determine whether it is
compatible with the proposed site and general area . The
Planning Commission may require any applicable Bulk Standard
to be up to fifty ( 50 ) percent more strict than specified ',
to alleviate a potential problem , providing it shall be
shown :
1 . That becaiuse of special circumstances applicable to
subject property , including size , topography , location
or surroundings and special characteristics applicable
to subject facilities including height , surface drainage ,
toxic substances , traffic and access , sound , liquid I
waste , li19ht and glare , odorants , flammable and explosive
materials; and gaseous wastes , the strict application of
the Zoning Code and Bulk Storage Regulations is founOo
deprive neighboring properties of rights and privileges
enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under ,
identical, zone classification ;
2 That the application of more strict standards will not
be materially detrimental to the subject facility and1
will maintain the full rights , privileges and environment
of neighboring properties .
3 . That the application of such modifications shall be
supported by documented evidence of a clear and
compelling nature to justify such stricter standards .
In the case of hardships affecting the subject property ,
variances to : these Bulk Standards may be granted by the 1
Planning Commission subject to the conditions of Section
4-731 (C) ( B ) . !

of Highways .
9 . Toxic Substances . '! The intent of this Standard is to extend
to the general public basic precautions used in. industry
dealing with the exposure of workers to toxic materials .
As a requisite to !protecting the public health and welfare ,
and esp cially as that public includes the very young and
other sensitive members , the environment should be kept
free of unnecessary concentrations of these toxic substances
by usin the bestipracticable control and process technology
in all phases of manufacture and handling and by a sincere
commitment to good housekeeping practices .
1 . The ambient air quality standards specified in Regulation
I off the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA)
shall apply to all air contaminants specifically listed
therein ..

Regulation I of the PSAPCA , but released into the
ambient air shall be in accordance with the fractional
quantities set forth in §§4-734 . 9. 3 , and 4-734. 9 . 5 and
for those toxic substances listed in the most current
publication entitled Threshold Limit Values , of the
American Confertence of Governmental Hygienists (ACGIH ) .
3 . The concentration of a single toxic substance measured
in anI. air samplie shall not exceed 1/50 of the Threshold
Limit Valueor! Ceiling "C" Limit Value at the lot lines
or ,�/ 100 of the Threshold Limit Value or Ceiling "C" '
Limit Value at the lot-district line. The concentrations
of two or more substances shall be considered as in the
publication of ACGIH .
4. Those carcinogenic substances listed • in Threshold Limit
Values having no listed threshold limit value shall not
be detectable! by the most sensitive method in air samples
taken at the lot or Zot-district lines .

hazards to persons and property and to provide for uninterrup-
table access to all properties and neighbors of a potential
major fire , emergency or hazard .
1 . All lots used by an industry of recognized higher risk
shall be served on at least two sides by accesses
dimensional equal to an industrial access street . Such
accesses shall be continuously open to City Departments
for clearing ; or repair at the owners expense .
2 . When on-site ; emergency access is required for fire or
other emergency equipment , a through route shall be
provided and ; n1aintained in a free and open condition at

3 . A definitive traffic flow pattern shall be provided
on the property for all traffic , both truck and auto-
mobile , such that all traffic shall cross lot lines
travelling in a forward direction . Curb-cuts shall
be kept to ,a minimum on both number and width consis-
tent with the property traffic flow pattern .
4 . Necessary transportation between different parts of
the same building or complex of buildings when
located on one continuous lot shall be by private
access routes , confined to the property sous to
not cause unnecessary congestion or hazards on
public streets . Such on-site access routes shall

generation of such liquid waste be on a sporadic basis
then the industry shall' provide 'the administrative official
' with written evidence of substantial compliance with
this subsection .
6 . •
. The rel''ease of odorants or gaseous wastes from liquid
wastes 'awaiting disposal shall be prevented by using
• adequate means of . storage .and all other reasonable means
necessary.
• 7 . Any treatment of liquid waste solely for the purpose of

centimeter, and with a frequency greater than once in
any five ( 5 ) second time period shall not be visible
beyond district lines unless for the sole purpose
of alarm or giving warning .
14. Odorants . The intent of this Standard is to prevent the
occurrence of; certain offensive odors in the environment
by limiting the concentration of chemical compounds which
are known to produce strong olfactory responses . This
Standard does1got attempt to determine the intrinsic or
subjective good or bad qualities of an odor , but only that
thelconcentration of specific constituent compounds are
abOe adopted! values which have been accepted for the
health and well being of the general public .
1 . The concentration of specific compounds listed in
Schedule 41734. 14- 1 shall not exceed the odor
threshold Values in two consecutive air' samples .
Three airl samples are to be taken over a two ( 2 )
hour perid io , one sample each at the beginning and
end of the test period and one sample near the time
midway through the sample period . The administrative
official may establish the time of the sample period .
2 . The location for taking the three samples shall remain
fixed during the test period and shall be at a point
outside 114 lines , at ground level or habitable eleva-
tions and a safe and reasonable place consistent with
the location of the reported violation .
3 . Monitoring shall be undertaken only upon receipt of
a complaint made by a person who resides , owns property-,
or is employed in the area affected by the complained
of odors ; unless the area is designated as a public
use area1whereupon all complaints will be accepted .
4. When more than one concentration is listed for a
substance in these Standards , the more stringent shall
apply.
5 . The samples shall be taken by a qualified person and
the concentrations of odorants shall be measured in a
certifies laboratory or facility at the request of the
administrative official .
6 . Nothing I. n this Standard shall be construed to impair
any cause of action or legal remedy therefor of any
person , or the public for injury or damages arising
from thei emission of any odorant in such place , manner
or concentration as to constitute air pollution or a
common l,aw nuisance .
15 . Hazardous Majterials . The intent of this Standard is to
provide adegluate separation between highly flammable or
explosive majterials . used in industries of a recognized
higher risk !Old the neighboring properties and public areas ,
total contailnment of all highly flammable , toxic and
polluting liquid materials , limits for the stored quantity
of highly flammable and explosive materials as . a function of
property area', and all other reasonable safety measures
deemed necessary for the protection of people , property,
and the environment from the threat and destruction of fire
and/or explosion , and to prevent encumbering adjoining
properties with burdens which are related to the hazards
of highly flammable and explosive materials .
1 . An industry shall not impose economic burdens such as ,
but not limited to higher insurance rates and/or
operatipgal limitations upon neighboring facilities
due to its location and hazardous nature . All necessary
modifications shall be made to both such characteristics
and the;' site plan so as to not impact neighboring
facilities.

16. Gaseous and Particulate ' Emissions . The intent of this'
• Standard is to limit the unnecessary generation of all
. air contaminnts , to decrease the annual emissions from .
stationary sources and all related transfer operations ,
on the site by controlling land-use intensity and requiring
the use . of the best 'practicable control of 'the .emission
of a--ir-'borne 'contaminant`s to achieve and maintain a
healthful environment of clean air.
1 . Process methods and' procedures currently available
• in industry which are known to cause fewer in number
and lesser quantities of air contaminants , shall be
used in all cases . In • addition the best practicable
control shall be used for the control and removal of
air contaminants . ,
-2 . Compliance with§4-734 . 16 .1 does not relieve the
owner or 'operator of the facility of the responsibility
of meeting the requirements of Regulation I of the Puget

be limited to the total annual and spatial density ,
relative to land-use for each ' facility as setforth in
Schedule 4-734 . 16- 1 .
5 . A facility shall be capable of achieving a condition of
near-zero discharge during an alert or higher stage of
• declared air .pol 1 uti:on episode • and : shall employ ;al l
operational and technical means to reach, the 'lowest
physically possible quantity of emissions during the
entire alert period . It shall be the responsibility
of the administrative official to enforce a reduciton
in the process weight to comply with this restriction .
6 . All ground surfaces not included in developmental coverage,
left in an undisturbed condition of natural flora , or
required landscaping which may contribute to the amount
of airborne particulate matter shall be suitably covered
by hydroseeding or the equivalent with grasses or other
vegetation to prevent the generation of dust .

7 . 11 new facilities or expansion of existing facilities ,
nless exempted by the limitations in Schedule 4-734. 16-1 ,
hall provide an initial report covering the emission
df those specific substances listed in Schedule 4-734 . 16-1 .
The report ;'shall cover the first three (3) months of
•
operation and shall be filed with the administrative
Official within thirty (30 ) days after the end of the
reporting period. The report shall enumerate all sources
by type orjcategory contributing ten ( 10) . percent : or
lore of the total emission for each specific substance .
The total of all sources contributing less than ten ( 10)
percent individually may be grouped as one entry and if
so shall specify the number of sources included . The
report shall contain such information or analyses as
ill disclose the reported values of the emissions
which are b 'r may be discharged by such source . The
report shall be certified by a licensed engineer,
8 . Each emission greater than twenty ( 20) percent of the
"annual weight per facility" or "spatial density" ,
computed on an annual basis , as reported in §4-734. 16 . 7
shall be reported thereafter on a quarterly basis until
such time as the total weight of the specific emission
drops below and remains below the twenty (20) percent
specified above . Such reports shall be due and filed.
with the administrative official within thirty ( 30)
days after the end of the reporting quarter. The
beginningiand ending dates of each quarter shall be
established by the administrative official .
9 . Each facility subject to this Standard shall be respon-
sible for notifying the administrative official of
all new initial emissions of a substance listed in
Schedule 4i734. 16- 1 and all increases in emissions
from new or old sources which will raise the emissions
of that sjpecific substance for existing sources,
above the; twenty (20) percent level specified in §4-734 . 16 . 8 .
Such notifrication will be in a report as per §4-734 . 16 . 7 .
10 . In addition to such reports as required in 54-734. 16 . 7 ,
4-734. 16 .18 and 4-734. 16 . 9 , the administrative official
may designate and employ a licensed engineer of his
choice to make an independent study and report as to the
type andiquantity of emissions which are or may be
discharged from the source . The administrative official
shall bekuthorized to enter and inspect the facility
upon a showing of need and upon the owner ' s permission
or upon court order .
11 . The site of bulk storage facilities emitting any of those
substances listed in Schedule 4-734 . 16-1 shall comply
with thel following limitation on location . No new
facilitylor expansion of an existing facility shall be
permitted within five thousand ( 5000) feet or existing
bulk storage facilities if their combined emission
for any of the listed substances exceeds two (2 ) . times
the perrnitted. annual emission of the substance for a
single facility. The emissions of applicable existing
facilities shall be reduced as per §4-734 . 16 . 12 .
12 . All existing bulk storage facilities on the effective
date of ; this Ordinance and emitting more than the maximum
permitted emission of any listed substance shall be assumed
as having the maximum permitted emission for the purpose
of calculating the locational density of facilities
as specified in §4-734 . 16 . 11 . For the purpose of this
Standard existing bulk storage facilities shall include
those facilities for which substantial construction , other
than site preparation , is in progress and as determined
by the administrative official .
11 . All exilsting facilities qualifying under §4-734 . 16 . 12
shall c1ornply with . the emission standards setforth in
Schedule 4-734 . 16-1 within three (3 ) years of the
effectiiv date of this Ordinance . A one time extension
of up to two ( 2 ) years may be granted by the administrative
official upon the showing of good cause why compliance cannot
be achieved within the specified time period .

You are updoubtcd:v -:;,_1-,TI.re that the City has a right to impose
, bulk storiage standars on other than petroleum distribution
plants add unrelated! co • tba pending litigation between the Shell
Oil Compainy and our; City. Our present deadline is September 8 ,
1975 for submission OE an ordinance to the Court and another
hearing before Ja(*ai' Hunter is now scheduled for September 15 ,
1975. It should. also be realized that this pronose d ordinance _

de public. We, of course, cannot tell whether you have ixn your
ossession the latest draft of ,this ordinance. You should also
e ::ware that pub • c sear ngs on this subject matter have been
oing on for several 'months and duly publicized and notice given
o at leas ninety different parties who have indicated an interest
n this very subject ;matter, Your clients, undoubtedly, were fully!
amiliar with all of . the proceedings and Don Norman also attended
.he last meeting of the City Council. .
I I
ou should also be °Ware that the :Planning Department duly prepared -
n Environmental impa Assessment which is available to you' through
S ct aid department. We. believe elieve that .the City has fully complied with
all . the requirements. of SEPA and in fact, as you may be aware, the I
nub of the litigation !between Shell Oil and the City directly relates
to our authority under SEPA,
urthermore, we doubt very much whether the most recent definition
of "bulk storage" would apply to the manufacturing operations of
ACCAR and The BoeingiCompany since all five conditions of that
definition would haveIto be met before the term becomes applicable:
You shout 4 also be aware, and we as City Attorneys have made this
recoL endation, that many of the provisions of the bulk storage
Ordinance would only be applicable to certain "recognized high :
risk" activities as 'd'efined in the ordinance. For instance 'the
requirement of a "catastrophe berm" or diking, etc. should not
be applied to a storage yard for equipment, machinery, etc. but
it undoubtedly shouldibe a mandatory requirement for large
petroleum storage and. distribution facilities and like activities
that ordinarily preset a high risk.
I I 1
We would thereforesuggest that you secure a copy of the latest
amendnent3 and determine whether any such activity would adversely
affect your clients in the future or would be in any way inconsistent
with present governmental regulations regarding your clients '
activities includingithose promulgated under the Shoreline Management
Act.

please do not hesitate to let us know.

R : Revisions to Renton' s Proposed Bulk r
- Storage Regulations with Definitions
D ar Mr. Shellan: 1 .
T is office representsiQuendall :Terminals , Barbee Mill Company,
a J. H. Baxter with regard to :certain legal actions now pend-
i '.g. I have discussed, with Mr. =Donald O. Norman of Quendall
e,rminals the revision's which the City of Renton has proposed withi
egard to bulk storage. It is my understanding that the reason for
j' hese revisions is thel oral decision from Judge David C. Hunter of,
the King County Superior Court in Shell Oil Company, Inc. v. : Renton,
ing County Cause No, ;786059 . . ' : •
. , 1 I
have obtained a copy; of that oral decision and have reviewed it.!
have also reviewed' the proposed bulk storage regulations promul-
I . ated by •the City of, Renton. .
Your- familiarity with , the ShellOil case is obviously far superior
io mine, a's I am simply working from Judge Hunter' s oral decision.'
owever, that decision emphasizes that action by the City of Renton
as arbitrary and capricious for two reasons . First, the City . I
ouncil and Planning Commission 'were apparently irritated with . '
hell Oil Company based on misrepresentations made to the city. 1
econdly, the city has failed to provide standards governing the 1
' ssuance of a special; permit to Shell Oil Company. It is my under-
standing that the new; bulk storage regulations are an attempt to
•rovide such standards. -
1
Those regulations, however, do not limit themselves in application
to the storage of oil, and petroleum products . Certainly, the stor-
age of such products iisa special area of concern to a municipality.

Mr. Gerard M. Shellan ,
August 29 , 11975 - Page 2 t
Q4endall Terminals , for' example, operates a tank farm and iswell
glIare of the problems inherent with oil storage. Yet the proposed
btilk- storage regulations go farbeyond a concern simply with; the
storage of oil and petroleum products . Rather, the city has painted
w' th, a broad brush and :has incorporated restrictions upon al;l bulk 1
storage. Moreover, bulk storage facilities are defined as those
industries in which at ;least forty percent of the developed area of
t e site is used for bulk storage. This is a somewhat sweeping I
d .finition, since it is possible that manufacturing operations ,such'
a those conducted by' PACCAR and Boeing could use forty percent of i
t e developed area of the site for : storage of finished products , I
etc. Certainly, such' storage would qualify under the definition of!
bulk- storage as contained in Section 4-702 (28) of the proposed .
amendments . -
4
While it may be desirable to establish fixed standards governing 1
storage facilities forioil and petroleum products, it is difficult ,
t.,, understand the rationale which would apply such standards to all •
b 1k storagle facilities . There would appear to be very little ,simi-
1-rity, for example, 'between the problems to be encountered with a
s.wmill and those to be encountered with a petroleum tank farm.:
Y-t the saute standards' would be :applicable to each. I do not be-
lieve that this type 'olf approach was required by the oral decision
of Judge Hunter in Shell Oil v. ;Renton. .
he fact that the proplosed bulk storage regulations constitute an
.mendment to the Renton Zoning Code raises problems of Renton' s
.ompliance with SEPA. : As you know, RCW 43 . 21C. 030 provides that a
•
unicipality must include in every : recommendation or report on ,
•roposals for legislation and other major actions significantly
. ffecting the quality lof the environment a detailed environmental
'mpact assessment. Changes or additions to the zoning code of a
unicipality are discretionary and nonduplicative acts which, con-
titute major actionslwithin the meaning of SEPA and therefore re-I
uire compliance withithe provisions of SEPA.
_n the present case, , the proposed amendments to the bulk storage
regulations carry with them certain secondary impacts of some eig-
mificance. For example, the new provisions of Section 4-734 govern-
ng bulk storage facilities provide guidelines for surface drainage
t such facilities . , It is entirely conceivable that enforcement :
f the or inance as drafted would result in an increase in peak
un-off from bulk storage facilities . An increase in run-off from
olding ponds could, coupled with heavy rains, result in the threat
f flooding. At the least, it would raise the threat of increased
elocity and content of natural drainways. This is certainly a
secondary impact which needs to be considered.
.
.
., .
Mr . Gerard M. Shellan -
August 29 , 1975 - Page
Other sections of the , ordinanceare of equal concern. The section
d aling with landscaping provides for the construction of berms
w ich would result in; a change of the drainage pattern on the
s . ject property. This could also: impact on run-off problems .
M reover, the proposed Section 4-734 (4) provides set back standards!
for bulk storage facilities . That section provides that all struc-
tures and bilk storageImust be located sixty feet from public /
right-of-walys and waterways . This ; provision would certainly; be of
concern to bulk storage facilities located on Lake Washington which
1 ad, and unload mate4a1 on to barges. If the bulk storage :facility
m st be set back sixty! feet froth the lake, it is difficult to under-
, sand how a!ny materials could be economically loaded or unloaded 1
by use of lake traffic!.
II summary, the proposed bulk storage regulation certainly provides
detailed standards to Meet the deficiencies noted by Judge Hunter I
in his oral opinion. However, the. changes and additions to ,the i
. zoning ordinance apply1 to all bulk storage facilities , regardless 1
f type. Standards tol govern oil and petroleum storage should . notl
iecessarilyl apply tolsltorage of sawmill products or grain products ,
bile it is probablyHHrue that a revision to the bulk storage r-equre-
ents for oil and petroleum storage are long overdue, the present
evisions of the bulk !storage laws! are not confined to this :subject
rea. Notice of these proposed revisions was not received: by our
xilients until August l8, 1975 . A response had to be submitted by 1 iugust 22 , 1975 . This is obviously a very short period of time in,
to evaluate and1comment upon sweeping changes to the bulk st;or-
ge regulattions . Thelstandards and provisions regarding oil and I
etroleum products are perhaps justified by the court order.. HowH
ver, the oourt order; certainly; did not require sweeping changes
o the bulk storage regulations applicable to the storage of other
ypes of materials . . Nor did the court order require that the City
--.- f Renton ignore the, provisions of SEPA. Accordingly, it is our re-
uest that the City :of Renton delay action upon the bulk storage 1
egulation changes as; they concern types of storage other than oil
nd petroleum storage;. I
i
hank you for your consideration in this matter. 1

Re: Bulk Storage Regulations
- Dear Gary :
-
This office , as '.w'e have done from time to time , would like.- toI
offer some furtheir suggestions concerning the proposed bulk
storage regulations . Below with reference to page and line •
number, find further recommendations for changes to the Regul Lions :
t
1. Page 2 , line 15 , add the words "and at his cost and ,
i expense. " j
2 . Page 2 , line 21, insert the word "written" after the •
word "prop!er" .
3 . Page 3 , liples 9 through 32 - Landscaping .
• A Line 'l0 - clarifying language should be added ,
' to ndt!e that the berm is required only for high
risk facilities as defined elsewhere in this ,
D IThance. Certainly some of the bulk storage users
should' not have to comply with all of these regulations . .
B. Line '18 The height requirements in line 18 would
seem too be in conflict with the requirements contained
in paragraph 3 on page. 31, and contrary to the Tiro.
' Chief' s recommendations , if dealing with a berm.
C . Lines 122 and 23 . . If an opaque screen with landscaping
is to be used why should the screen be set back 20
feet from the property line, and why should we require
20 feet of landscaping?
D.. Line , 2;9 The flat surface on top of the berm should
be only that required for structural integrity or
to provide adequate space to place a screen, fence ,
etc. Six feet would appear to be excessive.

RE: Proposed Bulk Storage Regulations
Sirs :
This is to protest ,the adoption of the regulations concerning
Bulk Storage Facilities.
These regulations, as written, include this operation as a bulk
storage facility. This operation is, in fact, a manufacturing
operation and its storage is only incidental to its primary purpose.
I i
We ask that you not' adopt these regulations as they will certainly!
inhibit growth at this manufacturing plant.

Re: Proposed Bulk Storage Regulations
with Definitions as revised.
Gentlemen:
With reference to the above proposed ordinance revisions for the City of Renton
the following comments are offered in protest to the passage of such ordinance
revisions in its existing form.
1
As the owner of approxiimately four acres of property at South 7th Street and
Rainier ve. in Renton where various concrete products are produced, and also
the owne and operator of the Security Septic Company on the Maple Valley Hiway
the revisions as outlined are of grave concern to us.
We have been in business in the City of. Renton for 28 years and contribute s b-
statiall.y to the industrial payroll of Renton and specifically we enter our
protest on the following basis:
Under Line 21 Page 2 the height restrictions as defined would substantially
- hinder and probably prevent any expansion on the property with regard to buildings
and equipment necessary to our operations.
Line 24 Page 2 Setbacks required by the proposed ordinance are far to
restrictive and againlwould prevent any expansion or futher development and
the full use of the property.
Line 1 Page 3 Landscaping requirement or opaque screens and setbacks required
would again hamper the full use of the property and its potential development.
1
Line 9 Page 11 Surface drainage. As we have operated at the location mentioned
over the many years no problem from this source has arisen and again we must pro-
test this part 'of the ordinance as too restrictive.

City of Renton
Renton, WA 98055 I r 'q. 1. Gentlelmen
This letter is written so there will beano misunder-
• stand/ng of the 'Shell Oil Company position on the proposed'
Bulk Storage Ordinance. At the Council Meeting of August: .
' '25,1975 , there was some discussion regarding the waiver '
. by Shell of their rights to be equally treated on the
.application of standards that were being applied. Shell ''.
does not waive its constitutional rights to equal treat'-
. men-b./ The Shelliproposal contained in my letter of .August
'/ 22 , 1975 , framed! the issues in accordance with Judge Hunter' s •
ruling and the Findings of; Fact and Conclusions of Law entered
as a result of that ruling. : !
1
The proposed ordinance was a bonafide attempt to propose;
standards that would give Renton adequate safeguards to, per-
mit a Petroleum MarketingDistribution 'Plant. It is not a
minimum ordinance as can be seen by comparing this proposal
to both the Planning Department position and the Environmental , .
Impact Statements filed with Ithe Shell application. The pro4
posal will meet! the zoning and environmental requirements of ;
the City of Renton. • ::
Relative equal application of standards which have
been proposed , s;uch as hydrocarbon emissions standards; noise! '
' standards; light standards, etc. ; we would again submit that!
these must be equally applied throughout the city. We be-.
lie/ye that thelhydrocarbon emissions generated in any `large ;
parking lot such as Boeing, Paccar, Longacres or shopping cen-
ter site such as the one at the Sheraton Inn, exceed your ;
proposed emissions standards . Once again, unless there- is !
equal treatment, we intend to appeal the proposed standards
tolthe Courts .;
I •
The proposal set forth on August 22 , 1975 , together
with its various standards, including vapor recovery, ade-
qulately safeguards the City of Renton and provides all
parties with' an opportunity to proceed in this matter on
a /legal and timely basis.
thtI Very truly yours , . '

We real'ze• that good planning is necessary to the future welfare of the coma'unity
but in the proposals outlined in our opinion are far to restrictive and wou d
not enh nce or provide the future economic benefits to the city.
Your futher review of the proposed ordinance would be appreciated whereby t e re-
strictions as outline, would be less severe.
Yours very truly, l

Gentlemen:
Referring to proposed Bulk Storage Regulations (Eighth Edition) dated
August 14, 1975.
Burlington Northern Inc. and Glacier Park Company take exception to the
proposed regulations and protests the adoption thereof for a number of
reasons, some of w 1 ich are set out below: °
(1) The procedure of handling bulk storage by special permit
authorized only by extremely complex regulations and at
substantial expense will in fact constitute taking of
private property, money or labor, for a public purpose without
compensation. A great deal of the expense and possible
controversy could be avoided by making storage of bulk
commodities a matter of right when the performance standards
are met. 11
(2) The setback requirements of 60 feet from other than public .
streets serves as another public taking of private property
' without just compensation - 20-foot setbacks from other than
public roads would be reasonable and would provide access
for emergency protective services.
(3) The requirement of placing security fences 20 feet back from
property lines is unreasonable in that owners would be
excluded from other convenient uses of such 20-foot strips
outside the'r fences.
(4) The classification as a bulk storage facility of an industrial
site which would primarily be for manufacture or assembly but
which because of the nature of the product, more than 40% of
the industrial site would be needed for storage pending
shipment is objectionable. Automobile manufacturing,
tractor or eavy machinery assembly or manufacturing would be
examples of this type. It is recommended such primary uses
be the controlling element in issuing building permits so
that the product storage would be included as a matter of right
and not subject to the administrative uncertainties of the permit
process.

(5) We specifi ally object to subjecting automobile holding and
transferepots to the special permit process. If such uses
are permitted in the H-1 Zone, then all that should reasonably be
required would be adequate construction and drainage of such
area, with screening if necessary.
(6) We object to inserting a number of items which properly should
be in the building codes into a Bulk Storage Regulation. Wb
do not fee a party studying a building code when attempting
to develop an industry should be expected to look into an
' extremely omplicated and detailed storage of bulk commodities
set of re lations also.
We ask that Bulk torage Regulations be limited to the primary problem of
sto age performance requirements.
We ask that setback requirements of the particular zoning category apply.
We .sk that building or construction requirements be included in the
Building Codes of the City.

Renton, Washington
Gentlemen:
As indicat d by previous testimony, the Shell Oil
Company believes the proposed Bulk Storage Regulations
are too broad and attempts to deal with issues such as
lighting, odor, and noise which are not problems peculiar
to bulk storage or petroleum products storage.
We believe that there has been some misunderstanding
as to the opinion of the Court and the guidelines set forth
by Judge Hunter
To bring this matter into perspective, we set forth
the following:
Judge Hunter's oral opinion as reported on Page 8 by
court reporter, Robert D. Carlton, stated:
"In other words, what I am proposing to do,
is to remand the case to the City of- Renton,
with instructions that the City Council and
the Planning Commission are to re-examine .this
Petition and set standards for the issuance of
a permit, So that Shell will know exactly what
its obligations are, and the City of Renton will
know exactly what it can expect. "
The Conclusions of Law, as prepared and submitted to
the Court by Renton City Attorney, Gerard M. Shellan, provided
in III, page 7, als follows:
"This matter therefore should be remanded to the City
of Renton for the purposes of establishing definitive,
written sta dards and guidelines regulating the issu-
ance of a "special permit" pursuant to the provisions
of Sectio 4-713 (b) (13) , and which said written
standards�a d guidelines should define and clarify,
among others, the required controls regarding the
elimination or reduction of air pollution, includ-
ing any cumulative effects on the environment within
the 'general area , of Plaintiff' s premises, controls
of potential surface runoffs, spills, landscaping,
screening and mitigation of damage to existing wild-
life habitat, effective and up to date methods of
fire alarm and safety systems, specifying the type
and nature of public accesses required for fire

such standards should be in compliance with
the requirements of SEPA and the ordinances
and resolutions of the City of Renton and
should be clearly and definitively prescribed;
such written standards and guidelines, however
should not apply to any aesthetic or visual
considerations.
The City of Renton should prepare such written
standards within sixty (60) days or to show cause
why additi9nal time should be necessary to com-
plete such work, in which case a progress report
should be submitted within such sixty day period.
Such written standards should be established to
apply to all applicants under Section 4-713 (b)
(13) of the City' s Code but need not be established
for the other uses specified. under Section 4-713_(b) (13) ,. "
From the above, it is clear that the Court action and
ruling contemplated a review of Shell' s Petition and restrict-d
the tandards to the areas set forth in the Conclusions of 1
Law and authorized the standards for petroleum products only
under Section 4- 13 (b) (13) . Restricting the present ordinanc-
to the uses undeF4-713 (b) (13) will properly narrow the issues
and expedite t1i matter. Therefore, we have prepared the .
enclosed propose ordinance for standards and guidelines
forpetroleum marketing distribution plants within an H-1
Zone, pursuant to 4-713 (b) (13) and pursuant to the guidelines,
and onclusion� of Law by Judge Hunter as prepared by the

"1. lk storage' faeil:ities zay be allowed only"
Environmental impact statements-and public ksoarizags should be used as tools
to ultimately determine compatibility of such facilities with adjacent
areas. This is part of the existing ordinamee. If they are found to be
incom atible in spite of proposed safeewards, the applieatio:a should be
denie .
Page 2 ire 27: The setbaek requirement should be ekanged to 150 feet rather

Also Pao.. 26, lines 1-7: Delete. Both of these sections suggest that the
er_for ement of ordinances is-affected only by certain citizens in the
sommv ity. This is a daneerot:s precedent, especially if carried over
into ther ordinat?ees. If tbe intent is to protect from harrassment, it
mast reeoenized that sweh protection already applies to us all regarding
any 1 w, and is bused on reasonable administration by all public offisialS.
page 2
The following seetions are discussed only to add nay own support of them as posi-
tive and .necessary elements of the regulations. I strongly urge against any
deletion o "watering-down" 'in retard to these items:
Pare 3, Lines 26-30: Performance bonds to insure maintenance of landscaping
is a ropriate,. and is already established procedure by precedent in our
manuf cturing park areas at the present time.
Page 16, lines 8-13:, Access on at least two sides is necessary .for the sake
of safety, both for the .facility itself and for adjacent properties as well.
Problems caused by i.nadegeate access would compound in air industrial areal.
Pare 29, line 31+: The reauirement concerning the capacity of the dyked area
has been lowered from the ori&inally proposed, but it does seem reasona-
ble. It should be regarded as minimum standard however, with the possi-
bility of more strineeu_t requirements when determined by the Planning
Commission to be necessary.
Paco 31, lines 27-29: A fully automatic fire suppression system is essentia
and ertainly reasonable, for the welfare of adjacent properties.
Pace 39, lines 13-32: Renuirements that existing facilities, after a reason
able period of time, must comply are appropriate and necessary for the
publ'c health and welfare. As technology and community needs change, so
must ordinances be modified to brinr them up to date.
Pace 41: The specific requirements concerning emissions is vital to .the
main enanee of acceptable air quality in our community, especially con-
side ing that such industrial development will for the most part occur
in t e Valley with its particular inversion problems and susceptibility
to s._og conditions.
The Planni.g Department is to be commended for its efforts and professional Qom
petenee in drafting this ordinance. But the task now before the Council is stir 1
not an eas, one. It is important at this point to review the directive of the
Court. Sh 11's-request for a permit outright was denied. The Court also did
not say.-th .: permit "should be issued as per the Staff recommendation of a year a y c,-
nor even teat the City should "negotiates' a permit with Shell Oil. Rather, the
City was directed to develop standards it .feels are acceptable and which would be
applied eolally to all comparable applications. These standards should he what
the people of the community feel is necessary and reasonable for the protection
of the pub is health and welfare. They should be firm guidelines for long-range
plamnine, of reaction's to short-term pressure. Such an approach is supported :_•y
"The Use e Land," the Report of the Task Force op Land Use and Urban Growth:
"It is mnortant that state and local legislative bodies adopt stringent plan-
nine an. regulatory legislation whenever they believe it fair and necessary
to achi< ve land-use objectives. This legislation, in addition to its direct
benefit , can help to create a consensus that tight protective restrictions
are yal'd and appropriate ways to achieve more orderly development and to
protect natural, cultural, and aesthetic values.ie
Both the r_spopsihility to protect and the opportunity for leadership are before
you. Cons'der your decisions carefully. -

Mr. Richard Stredicke

Renton,WA 98055
Dear Mr. Str dicke:
On behalf o our President, Mr. Humphrey Roberts, the Board of Directors of the Washington Horse
Breeders Ass ciation, and more than 1250 Members, we wish to go on record as being vigorously opposed
to any zonin changes which would allow the construction by the Shell Oil Company(or any oil company)
of bulk stora e tanks at the site presently under consideration. The Washington Horse Breeders Association
is opposed t installation of the bulk storage tanks for a number of reasons . . .those of esthetics,and those 1
which relate o the economic ramifications as they relate to the Thoroughbred industry of this State.
Just last yea- our Association undertook a project of building a new sales pavilion (at an estimated cost
upon completion of over $350,000) in the immediate area where the proposed storage tanks would be
constructed. the very near future we anticipate moving our general offices into our newly constructed
pavilion, whi,h will then become the headquarters for all of our Members, and the hub of activity for the
State's entire Thoroughbred industry, which is conservatively valued between $200 and $300 million. We
sincerely beli ve that construction of bulk storage tanks as proposed will have a traumatic impact relating
to the econo. ics of our industry, for even though all necessary precautions and codes will be enforced to
prevent a gig tic disaster, there is always the chance that the storage tanks could `blow.'Psychologically,
persons who do come to the races at Longacres would in the back of their mind wonder 'what would
happen if a s ark should ignite a huge explosion?'
We feel that strong consideration should be given to the more than 2,000 persons who make their living
from workin at the track for some seven or eight months each year before any final action is taken. In
addition, so e 1500 expensive and beautiful Thoroughbred horses are stabled at Longacres Race Track for
the same pe od of time . . .just a stone's throw away from an area which could produce a holocaust of
terror and de th should an explosion occur.
1.
As a resident of Renton, I feel very proud to drive through 'our' town and view the well-maintained and
attractive m • street, complete with trees, shrubbery and modern light fixtures. There is no question that,
esthetically s eaking, Renton rates as one of the prettiest cities in the State. By the same token the Valley
as it now appears is beautiful. Persons (and there will be more than 800,000 attending races at Longacres
this year) co e out from their downtown apartments,tract houses and subdivisions to not only witness the
spectacular sort of horses and men competing against each other, but also for the rare opportunity to 1
breath fresh 'r, see magnificent Mt. Rainier to the South, the tree covered hills to the East, and the tall
poplar trees y hich encircle the race track. Construction of several grotesque, unattractive storage tanks in
eye-view of this recreational center would,in our opinion,hurt the image and the esthetics of this beautiful
valley.

We certainly are aware that this community must be progressive and in tune with the changing times.We
know that our Thoroughbred industry and Longacres Race Track contribute considerably to the economic
well-being of the greater Renton area. Not only do the persons directly involved with the horses rent
houses, buy groceries and clothes, and enroll their children in Renton schools, but in addition the many
thousands of racing fans who come to witness the `Sport of Kings' can be seen in the dining rooms of
hotels,motels and restaurants which are established places of business in the Renton area.
We recogni e that there are several factors to consider on this delicate subject. Our point is that the
Thoroughbred industry is one of Washington's most important, from an economic standpoint and from a
recreational standpoint. This industry culminates in Renton . . .without a facility such as Longacres to put
on a racing program, our state-wide industry would suffer immensely. For this reason we strongly urge that
the Renton'City Council establish a strong position against the construction of any bulk storage tanks in
the area so esignated.
Sincerely,
WASHINGTON HORSE BREEDERS ASSOC.

RE : Proposed Bulk Storage
Facility Regulations
Dear Gary:
I ha e reviewed, the latest draft (August 14, 1975) of
Renton' s proposed bulk regulations. Combined with other
City ordinance and code provisions it appears these
regulations should give Renton the necessary tools to
deal adequately with massive land uses such as bulk
stor.ge facilities.
Than you for the opportunity to review these regulations.

•Re: Proposed Bulk! Storage Facility Regulations
Dear Mr. Clymer:
- 1.
This letter is to protest the inclusion of sand and gravel users such as
Stonewa Concrete, Inc. and Renton Concrete Products in the proposed bulk
storage ordinance.
I conte d we are manufacturers, over ninety (90) percent of our product
storage is for concrete production, ready-mix and concrete products. 'Sand
and gra el sales direct,to customers are shipped directly from the pit site.
• The Pla ing Department's placing us along with a specific problem, as the
- Cit •
y has with bulk tank farm operation, is unjustified. ''
If we are not excluded from this ordinance, the following comments are made.
in .regard to restrictions. Our type industry is operated by small independ-
ent business men, not large corporations. We cannot afford restrictions of
•
the typ- spelled out below, which I have taken out of the proposed regulation:
1. The maximum height regulation of forty (40' ) feet is too restrictive
for ready-mix concrete production of the type we believe to be the
highest quality. .
. _ - ` 2. •For production, storage, truck space, maintenance; a minimum of 1
five (5) acres productive property is needed. .
Taking this regulation and putting the minimum setback necessary
from property lines, one and one-quarter (1.25) acres would be lost.
After reviewink the landscape regulations with a twelve (12) foot .
high berm, six foot on top and two to one (2:1) slopes, fifty-fours
(54) feet would be necessary around the property, or two and four- I
• tenths (2.4) acres of unproductive.land in landscaping. .
A one hundred fifty (150%) percent performance bond for three years
on landscaping is not right, along with the need of a licensed
• landscape architect. .
't Mr. Ear Clymer, Chairman
a■
s' t a+. r Page Tw
August 18, 1975 •
With the cost of land and tax structures as they are, we would
be unable to operate.
I.
If I understand correctly, any addition or work requiring a building permit)
on property now being operated on, would make that property come under the
guidelines of this regulation. This is unfair and ridiculous.
I personally feel that the City of Renton Planning Commission and/or Depart-
ment is trying to make rules so restrictive that tax-paying companies such as
Stoneway Concrete and Renton Concrete Products would be forced elsewhere.
Very truly yours,

Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request as set forth in your letter of August 8,
1975, enc .osed please find Mobil Oil' s input on the proposed
bulk storage facility regulations. This input is the result of
a preliminary review of the proposed ordinance. Failure to comment
on a particular section should not be considered a waiver of a right
to do so at a later date. Likewise, Mobil retains the right to make
additional proposals which may or may not be contrary to the pro-
posals co tained in the enclosure.
As I have stated, I am prepared to meet with the Community Services
Committee the Planning Department and others for the purpose of
discussing the enclosed proposals. Furthermore, Mr. A.E. McCluskey,
Environmental Conservation Manager, can be made available for the
purpose of discussing this matter.
Very truly you ,

O;,.
INPUT ON THE PROPOSED BULK STORAGE FACILITY REGULATIONS, it
OF THE CITY OF RENTON
4 734. 2. 2 t is recommended that the Community Services Committee of
t e City Co ncil, rather than the Planning Commission be designated as
t e officia agency of the City for the conduct of public hearings I
r-garding tie issuance of special use permits under this ordinance.
4 734. 2. 3 It is recommended that this section be deleted in total.
I is suggested that the application form to be prepared by the Planning
D-partment •e utilized to compel the applicant to provide the information
n-cessary to satisfy the Planning Department that the proposed facility
w' 11 comply with the standards set forth in the ordinance.
4 734. 3 As the section now reads, the maximum height allowed for a
b lk stora.e tank is 40 feet. A standard tank is constructed with
v-rtical sides of 40 feet. Atop the tank are placed various items
r-quired for safety. It is recommended that these safety devices not
be include in the measurement of the height of the tank. Further,
i is submitted that any protrusion of the roof above the vertical sides
of the tan not be included in the measurement of the height of the
tank. Rec gnizing the Council' s desire to prohibit certain types o,
oofs which would substantially increase the height of the tank, its,
is recomme ded that the protrusion of the roof above the vertical sides
.f the tan • be limited. to that required for safety.
4-734. 4 etback requirements pertaining to bulk storage facilities
should not be different :from those setback requirements for other
-1-
i dustries located in the same zone. It is recommended that the term
" ildlife habitat" be deleted owing to the ambiguousness of the term.
4 734. 5 Those provisions of this section which require that the
facility be hidden from public view create a number of security problems.
M.bil deems it not only necessary but imperative that the interior Of
tie facilit be viewable from public right-of-ways by members of various
law enforce, ent agencies. The erection of either a berm or opaque
screen which has as its purpose hiding the facility runs counter to -the
n-ed for s ch law enforcement officials to observe activity within the
facility.
It is recommended that the landscaping requirements be stated in
terms of a percentage of the distance between the property line and
be setbac line, e.g. the first 30% of that distance must be landscaped.
Said landscaping could include the planting of trees which would not
result in iding the facility from the view of law enforcement personnel,
but would iminish the visual impact of the facility at the pedestrian
level.
The r quirement that a performance bond for 150% of the estimated
cost of ma.ntaining the landscaping for a three-year period be 'obtained
•rior to a proval would place an onerous burden on the small business-
an. Furt ermore, the City has adequate recourse if a facility owner
ails to m intain the landscaping. I
4.-734. 6 In view of the nature of the climate in the Renton area, with
•articular reference to the frequency of rain and oftimes snow, the
-2-
ji
i
l;mitation n entrance and exit signs to two foot square would create
a safety ha ard. One approaching the facility for the first time,
i other th n ideal climatic conditions, could very easily miss the
e trance and exit signs and attempt to enter the facility in the wrong
d' rection. In order to remedy this problem, it is recommended that the
e trance and exit signs shall not exceed a maximum of six square feet.
4 734. 7 It is recommended that this section be deleted entirely. The
problem of location should be one resolved in the manner in which the
property is zoned.
4 734. 8. 3 - . 5 and 4-734. 8. 7 - . 8 It is recommended that these sections
b- deleted and that in place thereof section 6 be elevated to sectiIn 3
a' d be changed to read "All water released into any part of the waters
of the State shall comply with all rules, standards , and compatibility
r-quirements . . . " .
i
4-734. 10. 1 It is recommended that this section read "All lots used by
al industry of recognized higher rc:sks shall be served on at least wo
sides by the equivalent of an industrial access street, which shall ,be
c.ntinuously available for access. Upon demand, the owner may be
required to clear and/or repair such access. "
4-734.10. 5 This provision for the separation of parking of private
.utomobile from any space regularly used by vehicles visiting the
cilit ]Eor business reasons is deemed unreasonable. It is uestionable
acility q
hether any other businesses in the City of Renton are so regulated. It
is, theref re, recommended that this provision be deleted. Naturally,
-3-
i
most businesses attempt to segregate the parking of private automobiles
fdom the aras regularly used by vehicles visiting the facility for
jl
b siness re sons.
I
4 734. 10. 7 In view of the difficulties involved in applying aesthetic
considerations to design, it is recommended that that portion of
1
P.:ragraph 7 commencing on Line 26 with the word"shall" and ending on
i jl
L ne 27 with the word "furthermore" be deleted.
4 734. 10. 8 It is recommended that the Community Service Committee,
r ther than the Planning Commission, be delegated the authority to 1
i pose additional conditions for safety if deemed in the public interest.
jl
4-734. 10. 9 It is recommended that this section be changed to read: 1
"All o -site surfaces used for daily traffic within the lot
or as part of the traffic flow pattern shall be maintained
in goo condition to prevent the generation of dust or the
trackiig of mud onto public right-of-ways. "
4-734. 11. 4 It is recommended that there be added on Line 12 after
tie word "sounds" the phrase "except motor vehicles operating in
,
compliance with bepartment of Transportation regulations': .
4 734. 11. 5 It is recommended that this section be deleted. Its applic-
-tion woul preclude 24-hour a day operations conducted seven days a

4 734. 12. 4 It is recommended that the words "scheduled" and "clear4"
a- found on Line 28 be deleted. It is recommended that the word "in'
found on Line 29 be changed to "to" and there be inserted after the
word "both" found on Line 29 the word "the" and that the word "with" ''
I
a-. found on Line 29 be changed to"uof" .
4 734. 12. 5 It is recommended that the word "substantial" be deleted,
a . found on Line 2. It is recommended that commencing with the word
"-qual" as found on Line 4 and ending with the word "operation" as
found on Line 7, that phrase be deleted and in place thereof there be
s bstituted "in the manner required by this ordinance" .
4 734. 12. 7 It is recommended that the phrase "the latest and best" as
found on Line 18 be deleted and in place thereof there be -substituted
" •est pract' cal control" . It is recommended that the phrase "and
e•uipment currently available to industry" as found on Line 19 be
d-leted. T at there be inserted after the word "available" on linell9
a period. It is recommended that the phrase "to industry" as found Ion
L' ne 19 be eleted.
4 734. 13. 2 It is recommended that this section be deleted and in place
thereof there be set forth the following section:
"Illumination from all sources located in the facility shall
be adequate to insure proper security of the premises. The
Chief of Police or his designate shall approve the illumin-
ation of the facility. "
4.-734. 13. 3 It is recommended that this section be deleted. This would
-5-
,
1
s:em to pla e a limitation on the maximum brightness of any one lighp
located on the facility.
d
4 734. 15. 2 It is recommended that the phrase commencing on Line 23
w th the wo d "of" and ending on Line 27 with the word "area" be deleted.
I is recommended that the terms "buildings, structures" as found onl
L ne 29 be deleted. It is recommended that there be inserted after
t e word "facilities" as found on Line 29 the phrase "used to store
s,:id liquid " . It is recommended that the phrase "could contribute
to the flow' as found on Line 30 be deleted. It ,is recommened that
t e phrase commencing , on Line 31 with the word "to" and ending on
P:ge 27, Line 1 with ?liquid" be deleted. It is recommended that there
b- added of er the word "be" as found on Line 31 of page 26 the fol1ow-
i g phrase: 1
"in ac ordance with the published standards of the National
Fire P otection Association and shall comply with the I
stands ds of the, Washington Industrial Safety and Health
Act and the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act. "
I is recommended that as found on Page 27, commencing with the word
" hich" as found on Line 4, the remainder of this paragraph be deleted.
4-734. 15. 3 It is recommended that Paragraph 3 be deleted. This recom-
i u
endation ' s based on the premise that the construction of any dikeImust
•e in conformance with the recommendations of the National Fire Proec-
•ion Association, the Uniform Fire Code, the Renton Fire Code, and the
•equirements of the Washington Industrial Safety and Health Act and Ithe
ederal Oc�upationallSafety and Health Act.
I
-6-
li
4-734. 15. 4 It is recommended that this Section be rewritten to read'
a-. follows:
"When equired by the Renton Fire Code, on-site fire
extinguishing s stems shall comply with the standards of
gu g Y P Y
the National Fire Protection Association and are subject
to the approval of the Fire Chief or his designate. If
an on-site fire extinguishing system is required, it shall
be con ected to Central Dispatch of the City of Renton
by mea s of a Remote Station Protective Signalling System, 11
in acc rdance with the specifications of the National Fire
Code, 7olume VII, of the National Fire Protection Assoc-
, iation. "
l
4 734.15.5 It is recommended that the Planning Department be granted
t e power t impose additional conditions.
4 734. 15. 8 It is recommended that this paragraph be deleted. It is
f-lt that tie Uniform Fire Code adequately covers the matter. 1
4 734. 15. 9 It is recommended that this section be deleted. It is felt
teat 4-734. 15. 2, which contains references to the National Fire Protec'
ion Association standards , adequately covers this area as do the zoning
•rdinances in force at the time the permit is issued relating to setbacks
•ursuant t• zone classification.
4.-734. 16 it is recommended that all of Section 16 be deleted from Ithe
.roposed bulk storage regulations. The standards established by the
'uget Soun Air Pollution Control Agency which are the Environmental
1
-7-
I
Pdotection Agency' s standards for emission of air contaminants more
t an adequa ely regulate and control any possible emissions from a
bilk storag- facility., Furthermore, to establish point source emission
standards wIiich do not take into account the state of technology ava .l-
acle and which are designedeto prohibit rather than regulate is clealrly
u reasonabl .
If the City Council desires to promulgate point source emission'
s andards, hen in the spirit of cooperation the following recommend-
a ions are ffered:
4 734. 16 I is recommended the preamble be changed to read: 1
"The i tent of this standard is to limit the generation of
air co taminantsiand to decrease the annual emissions from
the st.tionary sources in order to achieve and maintain
a heal hful environment of clean air. "
T e word "uinecessary" has been deleted because Qf its ambiguous nature.
T e word "all" has been deleted because recent court decisions have ,led
t. an inter•retation of the word "all" to mean every possible one. ,The
pi rase "by controlling land use intensity and requiring the use of the
i
latest and best technplogy for the control of all airborne contaminants"
V
as been d-leted for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is cEhear from the
•rdinance chat the regulation of landuse intensity is one of the premises
.f the ordinance. Seicondly, the requirement for the latest and best
•echnology places all stationary source emitters in the position of ,
constantly having to update their equipment irrespective of whether or
of the increased efficiency of the new equipment warrants the expenditure
-8-
.
o i the funds.
1
4 734. 16. 1 It is recommended that the portion of the paragraph commenc-
1
lig on Line 12 with "in addition" and ending on Line 15 with "air
contaminants" be deleted.
4 734. 16. 3 It is recommended that this provision be deleted. Not only
i•. there le itimate disagreement among experts as to what is the "best"
technology and equipment, but to place the burden of supplying the
az inistratHve official with this information places the facility owner
i the posi ion of judging what is best. 1
4 734. 16. 4 See comments regarding 4-734. 16-1.
4 734. 16. 5 It is recommended that this paragraph be deleted in total
a d that th- Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency' s regulations
p-rtaining o this problem be utilized.
4 734. 16. 6 This paragraph is ambiguous. It is recommended that it be
r-written to more clearly reflect the intention of the City Council.i
1
4 734. 16. 7 - . 10 It is recommended that these sections be deleted. 'I It is
u' clear the reasons for these reporting requirements. The collection of
tiis data nd the reporting requirements would impose not only an onerous
•urden upo the facility owner, but quite likely would inundate the
Planning D partment and the administrative officials with information
of little pecific value. The generation of this type of paperwork and
eporting equirements would appear to be another bureaucratic nightmare.
State is required to annuallysupply the EPA with emission inve tories
he q pp y
-9-
1
,
b , air qual'ty regions. The data required under this section would be
a duplicati bythe City of activities of the State.
P Y
4 734. 16 . 11 It is recommended that this section be deleted. The 5 , 000
foot limits ion would but spread out over a large area, stationary
sources whi,h may be emitting hydrocarbons. The value of spreading out
tiese sourc s id dubious. Furthermore, to prohibit a facility on the
b.:sis that here is an existing facility would seem to penalize one
w, o may wish to enter into competition with the existing facility.
I could have a very substantial restriction on competition within an
i dustry.
4 . 734. 16.12 It is recommended that the portion of this section commenc-
i g on Line 20 be deleted.
4 734. 16. 14 It is recommended that this section be changed to require
s.ecific systems for specific types of bulk facilities. Further, that
f.r the puri.ose of any specific systems relating to petroleum distillates,
i s applic.tion be limited to those distillates having a Rued Vapor
'P essure o 4 pounds or greater.
i I
4-734 . 16-1 It is recommended that the standards established in the "total
.nnual emi sion and spatial density of specific substances" be eliminated.
As previou ly noted, ;we recommend that the standards as promulgated by
•he Puget ound Air Pollution Control Agency be applicable to bulk storage
;acilities as they are applicable to other point source points. IInI
.ther word , we would recommend that the standards set forth in said
-chedule f r water vapor, sulfur oxides, nitrogen dioxide, carbon

the official gency of 'tie City for the conduct of public hearings
reg..rding the issuance of special use permits under this ordinance.
4-7 ;4. 2. 3 It is recommended that this section be deleted in total.
It s suggested that the application form to be
prepared by the Planning
Dep.rtment be utilized to compel the applicant to provide the 'information
nec=ssary to satisfy the Planning Department that the proposed facility
it comply with the standards set forth in the. ordinance.
4-7 '4. 3 As he section now reads, the maximum height allowed for a
bull storage ank is 40 fleet. A' standard tank is constructed with
'!
ver ical sides of 40 feet. Atop the tank are placed various items
req ired for safety. It is recommended that these safety devices not
be included i the measurement of the height g of the tank. Further,
it i� submittjd that any protrusion of the roof. � above the vertical sides
o t e tank n t be included in the measurement of the height of the
tank Recognizing the C;ouncil' s desire to prohibit certain types of
roof which would substantially increase the height of the tank, it
is r-commended that the protrusion of the roof above the' verti
cal sid-s
of tie tank be limited to that 'required for safety.
4-73 , . 4 Setb ck requirements pertaining to bulk storage facilities
shou d not be iifferent from those setback requirements
q rements for other
_1_.
in.ustries located in Ithe same zone. It is recommended that the term
I
"w' ldlife haI.itat" be deleted owing to the ambiguousness of the term.
4- 34. 5 Those provisiions of this section which require that the
i
fa ility be hidden from public view create a number of security problems.
Mo.il deems it not onlylnecessary but imperative that the interior f
l
th- facility be viewable from public right-of-ways by members of various
I ,
la enforcement agencies. The erection of either a berm or opaque
sc een which has as its purpose hiding the facility rums counter to the
I '
ne d for such law enforcement officials to observe activity within the
fa. ility.
, I 1
It is recommended that the landscaping requirements be stated i
1 ,
to ms of a percentage of the distance between the property line and
the setback line, e.g. the first 30% of that distance must be landscaped.
Sa d landscaping couldjnclude the planting of trees which would not
re ult in hiking the facility from the view of law enforcement personnel, .
bu. would diminish the visual impact of the facility at the pedestrian
le el.
The req irement that a performance bond for 150% of the estimated
cot of maintaining the ',landscaping for a three-year period be obtai ed
pr'or to app oval woul place an onerous burden on the small business-
1m- . Furthermore, the City has adequate recourse if a facility owner
fa' ls to maintain the landscaping.
4-734. 6 In view of the nature of the climate in the Renton area, with
i
particular reference to the frequency of rain and oftimes snow, the
'
11 -
-2-
i
•
limitation on entrance ,a�nd exit signs to two foot square would creat
a safety haz rd. One approaching the facility for the first time,
in other than ideal climatic conditions, could very easily miss the
entrance and exit signs and attempt to enter the facility in the wro 'g
direction. n order to remedy this problem, it is recommended that he
entrance and exit signs shall not exceed a maximum of six square fee, .
4-734. 7 It i1s recommended that this section be deleted entirely. T e
roblem of l9cation should be one resolved in the manner in which th
roperty is zoned.
4-734. 8. 3- -- .r5 and--4-734. 8. 7 .-8 It is recommended that- these - sect '-ons
be deleted arld that in place thereof section 6 be elevated to sectio 3
and be chang-d to read "All water released into any part of the wate s
of the State shall comply with all rules, standards, and compatibility
requirements . . . ".
4-734. 10.1 It is recommended that ,this section read "All lots used y
In industry .f recognized higher risks shall be served on at least t o
sides by the equivalent, of an industrial access street, which shall be
continuously available for access. Upon demand, the owner may be
required to lear and/or repair such access. "
4-734.10. 5 T is provision for the separation of
P p parking of private
automobiles from any space regularly used by vehicles visiting the
facility for usiness -reasons is deemed unreasonable. It is questionable
Nether any o her businesses in the City of Renton are so regulated. It
is, therefore, recommended that this provision be deleted. Naturally,

most busines es attempt to segregate the parking of private automobiles
from the are s regularly used by vehicles visiting the facility for

4-734.10. 7 n view of the difficulties involved in applying aesthetic
considerations to design, it is recommended that that portion of
Paragraph 7 commencing on Line 26 with the word. "shall" and ending •n
Line 27 with the word "furthermore" be deleted.
4-734. 10. 8 t is recommended that the Community Service Committee,
rather than he Planning Commission, be delegated the authority to
impose addit'onal conditions for safety if deemed in the public int=rest.
4-734. 10. 9 It is recommended that this section be changed to read:
"All on site surfaces used for daily traffic within the lot
or as a part of the traffic flow pattern shall be maintained
in good condition to prevent the generation of dust or the
trackin• of mud onto public right-of-ways. "

extinguishing systems shall comply with the standards of

to the approval of the Fire Chief or his designate. If
an on-site fire extinguishing system is required, it shallI

by mea s of a Remote Station Protective Signalling System,
in acc rdance with the specifications of the National Fire
Code, Volume VII, of the National Fire Protection Assoc-
iation. "
4-734. 15.5 It is recommended that the Planning Department be granted
th- power to impose additional conditions.
4-734. 15. 8 It is recommended that this paragraph be deleted. It is
felt that t e Uniform Fire Code adequately covers the matter.
4-734. 15. 9 It is recommended that this section be deleted. It is felt
t at 4-734. 15. 2, which contains references to the National Fire Protec---
t' on Associ tion standards, adequately covers this area as do the z ning
o dinances in force at the time the permit is issued relating to setbacks
p rsuant to zone classification.
4 734.16 It is recommended that all of Section 16 be deleted from the
proposed bulk storage regulations. The standards established by the
1
P get Sound Air Pollution Control Agency which are the Environmenta

,r
•
P otection gency' s standards for emission of air contaminants more
tian adequately regulate and control any possible emissions from a
b lk storag- facility. Furthermore, to establish point source emission
s andards w ich do not take into account the state of technology avail-
a•le and which are designed to prohibit rather than regulate is clearly
uireasonabl- .
If the City Council desires to promulgate point source emissio
s andards, hen in the spirit of cooperation the following recommend-
a, ions are ffered:
4 734. 16 I is recommended the preamble be changed to read:
"The intent of this standard is to limit the generation of
air contaminants and to decrease the annual emissions from
the st tionary sources in order to achieve and maintain .
a heal hful environment of clean air. "
Tie word "u necessary ' has been deleted because of its ambiguous na ure.
Tie word "a 1" has been deleted because recent court decisions have led
to an interpretation of the word "all" to mean every possible one. The
pirase "by ontrolling land use intensity and requiring the use of he
1- test and est technology for the control of all airborne contamin-nts"
h. s been deleted for a number of reasons. Firstly, it 'is clear fro' the
ordinance t at the regulation of landuse intensity is one of the pr mises
of the ordi ance. Secondly, the requirement for the latest and t
q best
technology daces all stationary source emitters' in the position of,
c•nstantly aving to update their equipment irrespective of whether or
nut the inc eased efficiency of the new equipment warrants the expenditure

of the funds.
4-734. 16. 1 It is recommended that the portion of the paragraph commenc-
ing on Line 12 with "In addition" and ending on Line 15 with "air
contaminants" be deleted.
4-734. 16. 3 It is recommended that this provision be deleted. Not only
is there legitimate disagreement among experts as to what is the "best"
technology and equipment, but to place the burden of supplying the
a inistrative official with this information places the facility owner
in the position of judging what is best.

47734. 16. 7 - . 10 'It is recommended that these sections be deleted. It is
unclear the reasons for these reporting requirements. The collection of
this data and the reporting requirements would impose not only an onerous '
burden upon the facility-.owner, but quite likely would inundate the
Planning De ! artment and the administrative officials with information
of little specific value. The generation of this type of paperwork and

4 734. 16.11 It is recommended that this section be deleted. The 5,000
f.ot limitation would but spread out over a large area, stationary
s.urces whi h may be emitting hydrocarbons. The value of spreading out
t ese sources is dubious. Furthermore, to prohibit a facility on the
b- sis that there is an existing facility would seem to penalize one
w o may wish to enter into competition with the existing facility.

4 734. 16. 12 It is recommended that the portion of this section commenc-
I
i g on Line 20 be deleted.
4 734. 16.14 It is recommended that this section be changed to require
specific sy tems. for specific types of bulk facilities. Further, tiat
f.r the purpose of any specific systems relating to petroleum distillates,
i .s application be limited to those distillates having a Reid Vapor
P •essure of 4 pounds or greater. .
4 734 . 16-1 It is recommended that the standards established in the "total

I
A- previous y noted, we recommend that the standards as promulgated by
t e Puget S and Air Pollution Control Agency be applicable to bulk storage

f-cilities, as they are applicable to other point source points. In
other words we would recommend that the standards set forth in said
s•hedule for water vapor, sulfur oxides, nitrogen dioxide, carbon

Attn: Mr. Earl Clymer
Chairman' '
Re : Proposed Bulk Regulations (Code Section 4-734)
andll?.evised Definitions for Code Section 4-702
Gentlemen :
Thisjletter contains the written comments
submitted on behalf of my client, Sternoff Metals, Inc. ,
concerning the above proposed Regulations. Please in-
clude these comments in the record of public hearing
as approved at the public hearing held on August 4 , 1975 .
In preparing these comments , I have followed my client' s
instructions that my review be on the assumption that
the Regulations would apply to them without conceding that
this is or should be the case; that an evaluation be made
of the legal andipractical aspects of the proposed
Ordinance, whether or not it would apply to my client;
and tlhat, where possible, constructive recommendations
should be made.! These comments have been organized so
that general problems created by the Ordinance are point-
ed out first. The general comments are followed by
comments on specific paragraphs which include recommendations,
where applicable and, finally, recommendations which are
not limited to Specific paragraphs are made .
- II
GENERAL COMMENTS
� I �
1 . Arbitrary Timing and Restrictions . The
Ordinance is necessitated by the Shell Oil case -and, as
a result, time 'requirements for developing a general
� I
. j
l
f
Commu ity Servilces Committee of .

I
ordinance are unrealistic. Many of the restrictions
appear to be wi';tiout adequate support as to their signifi- I
cance in preserlving the environment. If the Ordinance
retails its arb4rary character, it is not likely to be
upheld by the courts and the taxpayers of the City of •
Rento' will be 'required to bear a significant increase
in their expenses without accomplishing any environmental
impro ement.
2. Environmental Impact Statement required.
The p oposed Regulation is legislation which may signifi-
cantl impact tlhe environment and, therefore, state law
requires that anlenvironmental impact statement be prepar-
ed. Any such environmental impact statement should
identify significant affects upon the environment and'
• give alternate solutions .
3. Discrimination against specific industries .
If the City of Renton is seriously concerned about a
comprehensive. environmental standards legislation, any
such legislatioin should identify collective environmental
concerns and adopt regulations which are calculated to
obtain reasonable compliance by everyone rather than
segregating industries or individual developers. It is •
understood to belthe policy of the City to encourage
orderly development of land and promotion of business
activities within the contraints that they do not com-
promise the environment to a point that is unacceptable
to t1e citizens of Renton. The proposed Regulations as
now constructedrequire extreme measures to be taken by
a certain class of industry without satisfactory evidence
to show that that class of industry will produce an un-
acceptable burden on the environment or harm to the
people of Rentolnl. The result tends to be prohibition
rath r than necessary regulation. .
4 . Excessive burden to City and business : The
administrative burdens on the City of Renton and the
resulting increase in cost to the private business sector
of the communitylappears to be disproportionately high
compared to the benefits that the citizens of Renton will
realize in the way of environmental preservation or im-
prov ment. 1
•
5. 'Proper regulation is asset to all. To
the dxtent that the proposed Ordinance sets forth the
•
requirements -or compliance with State and Federal
I .

environmental protection laws , the Ordinance is helpful
in providing both the City and the developer with a check-
list. The City'Is effort to provide comprehensive legis-
lation for the protection of the environment is a benefit
not o ly to the citizens of Renton but also can reduce the
costs of development and encourage responsible develop-
ment. In develoop�ing such legislation it must be recogniz-
ed th t some environmental degradation will occur wherever
business activity is encouraged. The benefits of encourag-
ing bsiness will outweigh the deterioration to the
environment so long as the environment is maintained at
an acceptable level. To most people an increase in
business activity' will represent an environmental improve-
1
f ment when accompanied by effective controls.
DETAILED COMMENTS REGARDING CODE SECTION 4-732
i
1. Revise Bulk Storage Definition, page 34 ,
Subsection (28)"Bulk Storage" . An objective test as to
whether or not bulk storage is involved should be develop-
ed. This could bie accomplished by deleting the last
sentence in the first paragraph and replacing it with the
following language:
"The industry or use is characterized
byy having as its sole purpose the
redistribution of a material or
product although the material or
product may be redistributed in . .
packages or quantities different
from that in which it is received.
If the principal purpose of the
industry or use is to alter the
material 'or product by means of
mechanical, 'chemical or labor pro- .
cusses, the industry or use is not
bulk storage. "
2 . Delete list of included uses , page35, sub-
secti n (28)A. Delete this subsection since the definition
of Bulk Storage should be objective and a determination
of whether an industry or use is Bulk Storage is contain-
ed in the general definition. The current subsection is
arbitrary since subsection 6. was obviously added to in-
clude operations such as those of Sternoff , although the
Sternoff operation does not fit within the general de-
finition. Sternoff has invested over one and one-half
million dollars in equipment to change the material being
,

proce sed and the labor expended is primarily in the
processing of the material , not in the storage of un-
processed and processed material.
I
3. Revise warehousing exclusion and exclude
retail , page 35; ;subsection (28)B. The exclusion of ware-
house appears to have been inserted by special consider-
. ation even though it fits the general definition. If
warehousing is to be excluded, it should be excluded only '
when It does not involve the handling of materials which
are potentially hazardous or injurious to the environment.
It is suggested that Bulk Storage exclude retail businesses
unless the Council wishes to include new and used auto-
mobil dealers and other similar retail activities that
use e tensive outdoor storage of inventories.
4. Clarify definition of District Line, page
36, subsection i(36) . . The definition of. Dis.trict Line .
does not appear- to be adequate in view of -the current plan
to intesiuix various uses in a manufacturing park zone.
•
The d finition should be expanded so that where H-1 zoning
currently exists within an area designated for manufactur-
ing park, the district line will be the manufacturing park
bound ry at least in those cases where the limiting para-
meter are the same. For example , the light intensity
and noise levelslwhich are acceptable are the same in H-1
and MLP zones. If the definition is not changed, then the
specific Regulation. paragraphs should be changed.
j
. • COMMENTS ON SPECIFIC PARAGRAPHS IN • .
I CODE SECTION 4-734
I . •
1. Discrimination against Bulk Storage.
Page 1, paragraph 1, Intent. The recital
that Bulk Storage involves unique characteristics does not
appear to be factually supported. For example , why does
a tank farm need. Ito be regulated more stringently than
retail trades that generate large traffic volumes and
parking lots? To the extent that the Ordinance requires .
• stricter regulation on bulk storage that it does other
uses , the distinction appears to be arbitrary and cal-
culated to discriminate against bulk storage uses .
2. I Special Permit not required. .
Page 1, Paragraph 2. 1, Special' Permit.
Since it is understood to be the purpose of the Ordinance
to set out objellctive standards for protection of the
• environment, no special permits should be required. All
that Ihould be required is that the proposed facilities
I

be issued permits if they meet the standards.
3. - Planning Commission discretion replaced by
standards. 1I
Page 2., Paragraph 2. 2,' Special Permit. Since
the use of special permits to be issued by the Planning
Commission shouid; no longer be necessary with objective
standards, there, .s no need to designate the Planning
Commission as the official agency. Past -experience has
shown that objective standards are required to control
development. It is not fair to the Planning Commission
to giVe it the responsibility for case-by-case deter-
minations withoutl standards. .
4 . Regulator should have burden of proof.
Page 2 , Paragraph 3 , Special Permit. This
Sectioln should be deleted. The Planning Department has
authority to require the applicant to furnish sufficient
information to determine whether or not a proposed facility •
complies with . the standards. The Planning Department should . .
have the ability to deteiluine, based on information pro-
vided, whether o!r! not the standards are -complied with.
5. Arbitrary height limitation.
•
Page 2 , rparagraph 3 , Height. Sternoff does .
' not sto• ckpile materials over forty (40) feet. There
does not appear,i however, to be _ any jus_ti.fication for
limiti g the height of structures for bulk facilities to
a height less than the underlying zone. ,
. 6 . Setbacks may. result in additional con-
. demnation costs.ii .
• • P,age 2, Paragraph 4, Setbacks. The Sternoff
property being H-1, is already subjected to. a 60-foot set-
back requirement- for public right-of-ways, and i.n some
instances a much greater setback. There does not appear
to be any reason why a 60-foot setback from wildlife
habitat should be required. Setbacks may be used as
wildlife habitats ! The current plan for drainage channels
indica es that a drainage channel will adjoin Sternoff° s _
property. The pilans tentatively call for the drainage
channels to alsol provide public walkways, park trails, or
similar use. Th'eI60-foot setback requirement from drainage
. channels could substantially increase the cost of establish- .
ing pul.lic areas adjoining drainage channels.

7.. Exceptions to landscape and screening. ' •
Page 3, Paragraph 5 , . Lan.dscaping. Without
the advice of a professional landscape architect, it is
not possible to provide detailed comments. . The requirement
that the entire property be completely surrounded by land-
scaping may not be reasonable in some cases: For example,
when adjoining uses are similar or where standard structures
provide the natural screening of the activity which neces-
sitates screening, these objectives - could be remedied by
allowing the landscaping and/or screening to be waived
where a building which is not unique to bulk storage
facilities screens the bulk storage activities and provid-
ing for deferral. of screening and landscaping pending •
• development of adjoining property.
8 . Delete basis for arbitrary change in standards:
Page 8, Paragraph 7, Location Criteria.
This provision should be deleted. Since the ordinance
covers all environmental aspects, it is not reasonable '
to increase the standards by fifty percent. Also,
interpretation of the phrase "up to fifty percent more
strict" is difficult to apply. This paragraph would
again open the door to actions which are without accept-
able standards which are applied to all. •
9 . Excessive restriction. •
Page 9 , Paragraph 8, Surface Drainage.. A
detailed engineering study of this paragraph has not been
made lout the requirements under this paragraph should be
• no greater than they are with respect to other types of
• development. There is no justification for assuming that
bulk storage facility buildings , loading areas, parking
areas, and so forth create any greater risk to the environ-
ment than do similar facilities for other industries and
•
uses. The restrictions appear excessive where they
excee state law.
- 10. Unnecessary paving.
Page 11, subparagraph 8 . 8 , Exposed Ground
Surfaces. This should be re-worded so that the requirement
only applies to Storage of materials which may result in
contamination of the underlying soil and ground waters.
This paragraph as .it now reads seems to state that the
area Surrounding outdoor storage of materials must be made .
imperlvious regardless of whether the materials .being
stored expose the underlying soil to potential contamination . !

I
Page. 30, Paragraph 16, Gaseous Waste and
Other Emissionsl. It is arbitrary to apply this standard
only to a special class of industry where it is obvious
that bulk storage is not necessarily more offensive
than other industries or uses. If .this
, i paragraph is used
to e4lude development for bulk storage, the citizens
of Re ton should be concerned over the possible legal
conse .uences of such action. The intent which is stated,
that is to limit ';the unnecessary generation- of all air
contaminants, could obviously be met by stopping all
development of any type. This is not the desired result.
To the extent that compliance with Puget Sound Air Pol-
lution Control.• Agency Regulations is required, this is
not u reasonable ;and applies to all industries and uses.
To the extent that this paragraph intends to state the
policy) of support by the City of Renton of these Reg-
j ulati ns, thereli,s no objection. It -is understood,
howev r, that the! Puget Sound Air Pollution Control
Agency is the proper administrative .and enforcement
agency and not thie City of Renton.. This City cannot
afford to duplicate the expertise and mechanism already
provided.
;ubparagraph 16 .1. Sternoff beliebes that
it is using process methods and. procedures which cause
fewer in number and lesser quantities of air contaminants •
than ny other inlits industry. All air contaminants
canno be controlled or removed and to the extent that
there is no acceipted standard or indication that a serious
threat to the public health is involved, the requirement
. . in th second sentence is arbitrary and' unreason.able.
If th-'re are specific contaminants of .concern and the
quantities emitted are significant, then these should be
identified and all industries and uses made to comply
with he same requirement.
Subparagraph 16 . 3. Although no engineering
review has been 'made of this requirement, . it is known
that I.' some instances the state of the art makes proof
imposs '-ble from a practical point of view. The reviewing
agency must be aware of the latest technology equipment. ,

is acceptable and that other approved coverings could be
used, the paragraph could be rewritten- to reflect that
intent.
Page 31, subparagraph 16 . 7. It is not •
known whether these reporting requirements can be met
because of the state of the art of monitoring. These
monitoring and. re;porting requirements , if reasonable,
should apply to '.a!11 industries and uses. 'Exceptions. should
be av4ilable when there is obviously no significant
problem. These comments also apply to subparagraphs
16. 8, 16 . 9 and 16.10. •
Page 32 . 1, subparagraph- 16. 11. . 'The 5, 000
foot separation requirement is not clear. It would appear
, to prevent morelthan two bulk storage facilities in a
5 ,000 foot radius if the existing facilities used up their .
full allowed emissions . This. would seem to preclude
expansion of. Sternoff' s facilities if, for example, there
were two petroleum storage .facilities operating .within
the regulation, lsince even the addition of a small. fraction
of hydro-carbons :would be contrary to this subparagraph.
A nonFbulk �storage activity on the other hand would be .
allow�d to establish. itself and emit its full quota as
allowed bylaw. 'This distinction does not appear to be

Subparagraph 16. 13. The term -"all existing
facilities qualifying under Section 4-734.16 .12" is not
clear as to its meaning. If it, means that all existing
bulk storage facilities .which are emitting more than the •
maximum peinatted emission of any ' limited. substance ,
perhaps this could be more clearly stated.' 'Assuming that
the foregoing is ' the meaning, there would_ be no impact
on Sternoff.
Page 32. 2, Subparagraph 16.14. This sub-
paragraph,
if applicable to Sternoff, would require all
• loading and unloading of materials to occur within an
enclosed building, even though the generation of air-
borne' particulates involved in this operation are con-
sidered to be minor and of no significant consequence ,
either by the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control authority
or the City of 'Renton Planning Department. This sub
paragraph is .particularly questionable since it _requires
emission controls regardless of whether the facility

meets the established levels. Although no technical
study has been made, it would seem that the regulations
established bylPPuget Sound Air Pollution Control authority
are based on a ' determination that the levels of emissions
can e accepted ;without .danger to health or environment.
• I •
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
11
1. The efforts of the Planning Department,
Planning Commission, and City Council should be continued
to develop objective standards for the protection of the
environment ofl,the City of Renton. Where possible ,
performance rather than specific design standards should
be used.
•
2 . 1A1simple over-view of the problems being
addre1ssed indicates that the problems are .not nearly as
extensive as onel would think by a reading of •the proposed
Bulk Regulation. The problems addressed are as follows :
aL Visual covered by height, setback,
landscaping, sign and light regulations ;
I
b. Sound;
is Air Quality covered by toxic substances ,
odorants, . gaseous wastes and other emissions ;
Id. Control of Rainwaters covered by Drainage;
ei Water Quality; and .
f Safety covered by control of vehicular
traffic and flammable and explosive materials.
II
It is suggested that the following criteria identify the
trade-offs invohved in establishing regulations :
.
a! Visual. The visual impact of a given
development is important to three distinct groups :
' (1) area residents who have a direct visual
association and residents who encounter the visual
impact frequently in their travels .in the area;
' (2) .v3rsitors from outside the - area whose im-
pression of the City and its residents will
be affected by what they see; and . (3) property
owners, business men and their. emp.loyees whose .
. economic objectives may. be increased or de-
creased depending upon visual acceptability •

or desirability. In an area such as the Green
River Valley portion of Renton where virtually
all 'of the land is designated for industrial
use, it would appear that the property owners '
who island to benefit most by visual desirability •
should have a mechanism whereby .the visual
standards could be determined by agreement.
bi Sound. It appears that the state has
perfiorme.d extensive studies and has provided
. standards which protect the public health and
neighboring properties. The_ regulations
proposed appear to be reasonable and consider the
groups involved. However, all existing industries
should be consulted. for an opportunity to comment
on the reasonableness_
•
icl Toxic substances. Control of toxic
substances is a matter of public safety and it
is assumed that the proposed regulations are.
basedlon scientific information and are required
for ithe protection of health. . •
! I
d. Safety. Generally, the traffic and
flammable and explosive materials regulations •
appear to provide for the public safety. Where ' •
• therleiare disputes, however, detailed factual
andiscientific analysis is the only basis
for ',establishing a proper regulation. The
diking requirement is an issue of significant
importance since. all ground within any dike is
required to be impervious to polluting liquids.
It ijsiimportant that this requirement not be
• levied where not necessary.- The impervious
material requirement would .be in conflict with .
' thejdesire to have vegetation where practical
and 'also in conflict with' the desire to control
surflace run-off and to encourage recharging of
rainwater.
I
jej. Water quality. The state has developed
extensive expertise in identifying the causes
of deterioration and ,in the prevention of j •
deterioration to water quality. .In order for
the City to determine what regulation is
required to meet the standards, a comprehensive_
•
I i
•
i I
Community Services Committee of
City Council ofiRenton
• August 11, 1975 . ; Page 'Twelve
plan should be developed so that specific
- potential problems can be identified and a plan
and policy for prevention can •be adopted without
the imposition of unrealistic restraints on
developments -which will not significantly
contribute to or cause water, quality
•
deterioration.
I i
f.l Air quality. The question of air
quality has been given much attention by
highly qualified people in a highly complex
technical field. The Puget Sound Air •
Pollution Control. Agency has developed
regulations based upon this expertise . The
City Of Renton should work with .the Puget Sound
Air Pollution Control Agency toYidentify any
unique problems within the City of Renton or
its sub-regions with the objective of develop-
ing a ;comprehensive air quality plan. When a
comprehensive air quality plan has been .
'developed, it will then .be .possible to apply
regulations which are fair and equitable in order
to accomplish the plan. In developing such a
comprehensive plan, it would be `required that
there 'be a balancing between the economic
burdens with respect to various . possible
solutions. It is known that increased business
activity in the City of Renton cannot take
place without causing air pollution. The.
increase in vehicular traffic and the . increased
use of energy for both. heating .and powering the
machinery used in industry w•ill. be increased.
Unfortunately, it does • not appear that local
industry has the resources to tackle such a
complex problem. About the only- method by
whichlfair regulations can be adopted for this
Citylis by a slow step-by-step educational .
process. Industry and residents should be
involved in each step. The process would flow
in the following manner:
I
j (i) Identification of existing air
pollution problems and projected air pollution•
II _
•
li i
! � I
Community Services Committee of
City Council o;f Renton
August 11, 1975 - Page Thirteen
problems assuming no controls other than
;those imposed by the Puget Sound Air Pollution
Control authority.'
j ' I
(ii) Identification .of the principal
cources of existing problems or projected
problems.
•
(iii) Preparation of and analysis of
measures or regulations which would restrict
the problem sources or planning measures •
. which would avoid the problems.
(iv). Adoption of regulations or i .
planning measures.
3. If all other comments in .this letter are
to no avail, . it: is suggested that the determination of
whether or not . use or activity is bulk storage could be
• objectively determined by a standard of investment or
employment of labor in the manufacturing or processing
activity which takes place on a developed property. An
area test, that' is a test based on the percentage used
for storage versus other activities .would necessarily be
arbitrary. A business engaged in manufacturing or processing;
must include within its business decisions an allowance
for flexibility to cope with business cycles which make
the acquisition and disposition cycles fluctuate from time
to time. The ability of a business to survive may be
dependent upon this flexibility. The importance of this '
factor may vary' from industry to industry but .the relative
importance in terms of area does not determine the environ- -
mental desirability of the business.
4 . The development of complex regulations for
the betterment of the City of Renton and its citizens
must be carried out in the spirit of cooperation. .. Un-
fortunately, environmental issues have tended to be dis-
cussed in an adversary environment with the result that
the businesses involved, the environment and the citizens
all suffer. The appointment of a ' citizens ' committee
with environmental representatives , business representatives •
and government representatives should be established
for the single purpose of recommending to the City Council
procedures to be 'Iadopted, where possible, for the resolution
of environmental !questions.

, I Re: Bulk Storage Standards
1 I .
Dear 'Sr. Kelly:
1 I
is This letter to confirm our telephone conversation of
i
August 7, 1975, in which you indicated to me that you believed
,
your loffice, an4Ipossibly the services of Mobil Oil, might be ;
offered to assiSt the City in the preparation of a proposed '
bulk storage standards and regulations. During the course of !
• our conversation you indicated to me that due to the nature of
the public hearing, the number of parties involved , at the tithe
of the lweg,ring,1 etc, that you had not been able to adequately !
advise/Ctty of Renton of your objections to the proposed
regulations , or to offer to the City certain information which
you believed of value formulating these regulations,
I 1 ,
Therefore, it was my suggestion to you that you address a •
letter to Gordon Erickson of the Planning Department of the
City of Renton with your comments and objections to the proposed
regulations, an4 also send a copy of this letter -to this office.
Thereafter, I can assure you that both this office and the
City Planning Diepartment will give most careful consideration , to

WAC 18-46-010 -; Preamble.
In the interest of the people of the state of Washington, it
is the objective of the department of ecology to obtain and main-
_` tain the cleanest air possible, consistent with the highest and
best practicable control technology.
In areaslwhere existing concentrations are lower than con-
centrations allowed by the standards enumerated below, degradation
of the atmosphe';re should be minimized. The highest and best
practicable control technology should be applied to all sources
J
unless it is determined by the responsible air pollution control
agency that application of lesser technology is justified. Air
quality standards should not be construed to encourage degradation
of existing air quality.
- •
- WAC 18-46-020 1- Definitions.
As used in this chapter:
(1) "Ambient air" means the 'surrounding outside air.
f. (2) "Air, quality standard" means an established concentration,
exposure time,fland frequency of occurrence of a contaminant or
multiple contaminants in the ambient air which shall not be
ecceeded. '
:, I (3) "Primary air mass station (PANS)" means a station designed
to measure contamination in an air mass and representing a relative
broad area. The sampling site shall be representative of the
1 gieneral arealconcerned. The probe inlet shall be a minimum of
i
fifteen feet aid a maximum of•one hundred and fifty feet above
ground level. lActual elevation should vary to prevent adverse
exposure conditions caused by surrounding buildings and terrain.
The probe inlet shall be placed ten to twenty feet above the
rooftop and meteorological measurements, if taken, shall be made
,at approximately the same level as the probe inlet.
W I (4) "Primary ground level monitoring station (PGLMS)" means a .
.,.11 station designed to provide information on contaminant concentra-
` I tlions near tlie' ground and provide data valid for the immediate
;: I area only. The probe inlet shall be six to fifteen feet above
ground level 'lwith a desired optimum height of ten feet. The probe
inlet shall not be less than two feet from any building or wall.
The sampling site shall be representative of the immediate area.
• WAC 18-46-030 - Air quality standards.
Air quality standards are established as follows:
_ l
(1) Photochemical Oxidant —Photochemical oxidant in the
ambient air rieasured at a PANS during the hours and months speci-
fied shall notl exceed an average concentration of 160 micrograms

Gentlemen:
Thank you for allowing us to comment on your proposed regula-
tions for bulk storage facilities. I am pleased that you
have coordinatedlyour development of these regulations with
the Puget Sound'hAir Pollution Control Agency. We concur
with their recommendations but must point out one area that
needs further clarification.
Section 4-734. 161Gaseous Waste and other emissions requires
that a facility shall be capable of achieving a condition
of near-zero discharge during periods of an air pollution
alert and shall employ all operational and technical means
to reach the lost physically possible quantity of emissions
during the entire alert period.
II '
Section 4-702 (20I defines "alert" as a level of air quality
defined by the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency.
Section 4-702 (48)1 defines "near zero discharge" as the
closest currently possible approach to ideal "zero-discharge" .
An "alert" is one stage of an Air Pollution Episode. The
deparlLtment and the Puget \Sound Air Pollution Control Agency
have jointly developed an Episode Avoidance Plan which has
four 'stages : Forecast, Alert, Warning, and Emergency. The
Department is authorized by the: Legislature to declare when
any stage of an; episode has been reached. The Puget Sound
Air Pollution Agency will then notify sources unders its
jurisdiction to take action in accordance with a pre-
approved plan for each stage of an episode.
I suggest that the words "periods of an air pollution alert"
in Section 4-734:16, page 30, be replaced with the words
"when the alert, warning or emergency stages of an air

tio4 ( ont'd. acilities and definitions to clarify terms in the Zoning Ordinance as
from 7/'1/75) appears within the Building Regulations of the City Code and as requested
b Judge Hunter during recent court case (Shell Oil Co. vs. City of
Renton). Letter from A. R. Dammkoehler, Air Pollution Control Officer,
Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency, recommended changes to Section
- 734.9. 1 , :734. 9.5, 734. 14 and 734.16. Councilman Clymer remarked ,
hat the Community Services Committee had reviewed the changes recommended
b the department heads and as a consequence Revision E, dated 7/30/75,
as put out and the Planning Department had now brought out Revision, F.
The new revision was distributed to interested parties. Mayor Garrett
Audienc- asked for audience comment. Wesley Hodge, Attorney for Shell Oil Co. ,
Comnent objected to the requirements for dyking facilities that would contain
200% of the production stored at the site; also the requirements for
t o access roads; impervious materials for exposed ground surfaces;
he said the ordinance was too restrictive, that Shell had a vapor
recovery system that would. reduce emissions by 90% and that the
restriction of 100 Tons of Hydrocarbons per facility would prohibit
Shell 's development of the site. A question and answer period ensued
w'th Planning', Director Ericksen, Zoning Specialist Victor Feltin, Assis-
t.nt Fire Chief Richard Geissler answering questions from Mr. Hodge,

M-tals, remarked that their concern with the ordinance was its com-
plexity, contending this matter was a regulatory war between Shell andi
the City; that the City had started with an H-1 ordinance which con-�
twined one paragraph on bulk storage, now expanded to affect drainage and
many other restrictions on his client, including requirement for Special
Permit. Mr. Branson requested permission to submit comments on a
paragraph to paragraph basis to the City in writing. Upon inquiry by
Councilman Clymer, Mr. Branson said he would be happy to attend the 1
Community Services Committee meeting and answer questions on each para-
gaph. Mr. Blair Burnson, 2000 IBM Building, Seattle, Attorney for the
W.shington
shhington Jockey Club and Broadacres, said he had also been requested

PUBLIC HEARING (Continued)
Proposed Bulk and expressed approval of even more stringent regulations than already
Storage Regula- drawn on industries in the valley; tank farms were not very desirable
tions neighbors for Longacres which caters to people and is a beautiful asset
to the City. Mr. Steve Kelly, representing Mobil Oil Co. , inquired of
Councilman Stredicke if it was the Council 's intention to make these
regulations applicable to Mobil Oil Co. Councilman Stredicke replied
that any new business coming into the City would have to build accord-
' ing to 'ithis code, but it would not be applicable to existing businesses
except for expansion. Planning Director Ericksen stated the only area
which would apply would be emission standards, with three years to comply
and a possible extension of two years for existing industries; fire con-
trol regulations would not be retroactive. Mr. Allan McCluskey, Mobil
Oil Co.j, said that at the time Mobil Oil built the facility in 1967,
the technology was the best there was. Mr. Issa Kamar, Manager of
Olympic'; Pipe Line Co. , remarked that he was closest to the Mobil facility '
and he had never noticed any odor of emissions. Mrs. Patricia Seymour,
2534 Burnett Court N.E. , spoke in favor of the proposed ordinance citing
sections where she favored stronger restrictions and though Renton was
an industrial city, there was no reason why its citizens should not have
a decent environment in which to live. Mr. John Tilton, 3511 N.E. 6th St. ,
spoke in favor of modifying standards so that industry was not prevented
from moving into the City. MOVED BY STREDICKE, SECONDED BY DELAURENTI ,

a Re: Proposed bulk storage regulations
,d Dear Gary
Y This is to acknowledge receipt, as of July 31 , 1975 , of additional
1r: amendments to the above matter. We also wish to acknowledge copy
, of Mr. Gbnnason' s letter of July 31 expressing certain objections
and reservations to the present wording of the proposal.
l'`' I would suggest for everybody's consideration, and to avoid
rr: . confusion, that a section be added to indicate that these regulations
,r:,•. shall supplement and be in addition to any existing ordinances and
, code pro isions
We also notice that a change has been made on. page 35 (revised
ii,'; edition f July 30) to include Item 8 -which was previously excluded.
I do not believe that this inclusion can be legally sustained and
may be c nsidered arbitrary and capricious . To impose all of these
' requirements applicable to a petroleum storage facility to a simple
warehous that may store bicycles or canned goods is completely
` unrealisticic and most likely would not be sustained by any court.
;, We there ore seriously suggest that su\paragraph 8 be again exempt
1' from the bulk storage regulations o t1lat the storage of raw or
finished materials and/or finished pro ucts - - * be excluded.
I We remain,
Very /truly yours ,

Subjebt: Public Hearing July 21, 1975 to Consider the
l
Proposed Regulations for Bulk Storage
Facilities and Definitions to Clarify the
Zoning Ordinance known as Chapter 7 of Title
IV (Building Regulations) of the City Code"

Valley Comprehensive Plan, FINAL, Prepared

April 1975
Dear Members of the Renton City Council:
I am most appreciative of this opportunity to appear be-
fore the Council and express my feelings relative to the
subject document.
Like many others , I believe the Council was eminently
properlin voting 5-to-1 at the August 1974 Council Meet-
ing toluphold the 8-to-1 decision of the Planning
Commission to deny a Storage Tank Farm permit to Shell Oil.
Last Friday, July, 18th, I received a copy of the subject
document, which is, dated July 14th, and a notification '
of tonilghts meeting. The Planning Department is to be
commended for completion of the subject preliminary doc-
umentation in the brief time span subsequent to the April
II decisiot. reached by Judge Hunter.
I would very much like to submit constructive written
comments relative', to the subject document. The short lead
time prior to this meeting essentially denies this opport-
unity; although I am aware that the document must be
complet d and approved in a very few days. After closely
reading the document, however, I strongly believe that
that there are several items that must be questioned due
in partto the precedent setting nature of the document.
A number of my concerns have been voiced in references (a)
and (b) ,I particularly in the letters received by the
Planning Department and attached to ::the .:documents. One
specific example o,f, my concern is as follows:
Ref. (b) , page '14, item 8 Air Quality` ; "The amount of
derogation of Fair quality from development will be
dependent on the standards required by the City and the
I
�' 1.. Ammar
_2_
� I
! 1 _
technology available to handle industrial activities.
The City intends to employ high standards to maintain
'as high air quality as feasible. "
Note: In reading the subject proposed document the
impression gleaned by the undersigned is that
the City does not propose to act regarding
the monitoring of pollutents except when so
requested by a City Resident or when so
notified by the operator of a facility that
a potential health hazard exists.
The letter received by the Planning Department from
Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency, dated March
4, 1975, commenting on their review of reference (b) ,
{ may in many ways prove applicable to the subject
proposed document.
I .
In light of my above expressed views on this matter I herewith
respectfully request the Council to approach Judge Hunter
with1a petition for a two week extension of time to permit
the City to review imputs that may be expected by the Council
as the result of this meeting.
Respectfully,

Gentlemen:
We appreciate the; opportunity to comment on these proposed regulations
and offer the following recommendations for your consideration:
1. Section 4 - 1734.9.1 Change the phrase "airborne toxic substances"
to read "air contaminants"
1 '
2. Section 4-734.9.5 Change the phrase "substances having no. . ," to
read "such carcinogenic substances having no. . .".
Ij
3. Section 4 - 1734.14 Since it is conceivable that a facility could
comply withl,this section even though an odor nuisance existed, we
- recommend the' following sentence be added after the words "general
public." in)line 11: "Nothing in this standard shall be construed
to impair any: cause of action or legal remedy therefor of any per-
son, or the public for injury or damages arising from the emission
of any odorous material in such place, manner or concentration as
to constitute; air pollution or a common law nuisance."
4. Section 4 - H734.16 Add the following paragraph after line 9 on
page 30: • "Compliance with this section does not relieve the owner
SERVING: or operator ;of the facility of the responsibility of meeting the
KING COUNTY requirements of Regulation I of the Puget Sound Air Pollution ,

roposed Bulk Storage Regulation'with,.Definitions ,. , " .
The Ordinance deals with very highly technical areas:,which it fails to define

and the ca abilitie of subsequentent enforcement of; these standards
Acceptance of the 'applications shall be determined by the concerned department,
who are more knowledgeable 'ofthe,task.;
We suggest that the surface drainage section be deleted from this''ordinance.
The City standards and regulations: regarding, thisimatter are well defined' to
provide adequate control for surface drainage, Surface drainage is not
requitement todetermine the...land use of a property, because there, are .
several methods and1 'techniques which can be utilized to provide adequate.

• i ' ' MEMORANDUM ,
:. - July 21, 1975 ' '
TO: ,• Warren Gonnason
FROM: Jim Hanson
. SUBJECT: Reveiw. of Bulk Storage regulations. ..
I'
The following are items noted which are of concern and .
are likely to create 'enforcement problems: .
1. The Ordinance should 'specify what is covered. ,
. (Only1Pew facilities, existing ones which are,
modified or expanded a certain percentage?)
2. Bulk Storage appears• to be legal in'any .use zone.
. 3: The defenition of "Bulk Storage" covers many items . '
• . - which we feel. need'not be covered by this ordinance. , .
Such as general storage warehouses. We feel that
' the 2�0% for storage of manufactured goods may be j
too small.
4. . The various setbacks required in the ordinance from .
•
' the property lines should be written as the mini-
mum sirice our Fire Codes require more in some in-
stances.
5. The City presently has existing regulations which
specifically cover drainage, fire protection, dykes,
retaining walls and signs. These items should not
. j be included in this ordinance. The uniform codes
covering these items which the city has adopted are
continually being revised to take advantage of the .
latestitechnology in the safety and fire arena.
6. The ordinance should specify which Dept. and or
division is responsible for approval and enfor-
' cements of specific items such as drainage, fire
protection, landscaping, etc. . •
7.' The ordinance allows the Planning Commission to _
j increase standards by 50% without specifing what
areas. Can 'be increased. We have no objection if
11
the intent is to increase setbacks or.•landsca p'in g.
,
Pa a Two
I July 21, 1975 :
8. The constant monitoring of the facilities.concerning
odorousi substances, light, noise, air and water pol-
lutionjwill be very costly to whoever enforces this
ordinance. In many circumstances' consultants will ' ' i
need to, be retained to ,interpret the data provided ' '
. to the ',city and/or take tests for the City. The
- matter of cost,to the city In the 'form of additional
employes, instruments and consultants should be ad-
dressed.' .
j
There are'specific 'wording•.changes that perhaps should
be made in our opinion, however, these are not included ,
at this time. We will be happy to meet with you, Planning
or a count ll 'committee 'to discuss these specifics,.
