Introduction and Purpose
The State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA) requires environmental review for project and non-
project proposals that are likely to have adverse impacts upon the environment. In order to meet
National Environmental Policy Act(NEPA) and SEPA requirements,the City of Renton issued the
Draft Environmental/mpactStatement(DEIS)for the Ciry of Renton SunsetArea Community Planned
Action on December 17,2010 and the Final EnvironmentallmpactStatement(FEIS)for the Ciry of
Renton SunsetArea Community Planned Action on April 1,2011. The Draft together with the Final
EIS is referenced herein as the"EIS".The EIS has identified significant beneficial and adverse
impacts that are anticipated to occur with the future development of the Sunset Planned Action area,
together with a number of possible measures to mitigate those significant adverse impacts.A NEPA
Reevaluation/SEPA Addendum was prepared in September 2014 and issued in December 2014 to
evaluate any potential changes in EIS conclusions associated with modifications to the conceptual
master plan for Sunset Terrace,which comprises a portion of the Planned Action area. Similarly,a
NEPA Reevaluation/SEPA Addendum was prepared in May 2016 and issued in June 2016,based on
a revised master plan for Sunset Terrace and associated housing replacement sites. No new or
significantly different impacts were identified from this reevaluation.
The purpose of this Mitigation Document is to establish specific mitigation measures,based upon
significant adverse impacts identified in the EIS and minor changes identified in the
Reevaluation/Addendum. The mitigation measures shall apply to future development proposals
which are consistent with the Planned Action scenarios reviewed in the EIS,and which are located
within the Renton Sunset Area Community Planned Action Study Area(see Exhibit A). This
document will be used primarily to facilitate review of future projects proposed as planned actions.
SEPA Terms
As used in this document,the words action,planned action,or proposal are defined as described below.
Action"means projects or programs financed,licensed,regulated,conducted or approved by a
governmental Agency."Project actions"involve decisions on a specific project such as a
construction or management activity for a defined geographic area. "Non-project"actions
involve decisions about policies,plans or programs. (see WAC 197-11-704)
Planned Action"refers to types of project actions that are designated by ordinance for a specific
geographic area and addressed in an EIS,in conjunction with a comprehensive plan or subarea
plan,a fully contained community,a master planned resort,a master planned development or
phased project. (see WAC 197-11-164)
Proposal"means a proposed action that may be an action and regulatory decision of an agency,
or any action proposed by applicants. (see WAC 197-11-784)

General Interpretation
Where a mitigation measure includes the words"shall"or"will,"inclusion of that measure in project
plans is mandatory in order to qualify a project as a Planned Action. Where"should"or"would"
appear,the mitigation measure may be considered by the project applicant as a source of additional
mitigation,as feasible or necessary,to ensure that a project qualifies as a Planned Action.
Unless stated specifically otherwise,the mitigation measures that require preparation of plans,
conduct of studies,construction of improvements,conduct of maintenance activities,etc.,are the
responsibility of the applicant or designee to fund and/or perform.
Summary of Proposal, Alternatives, and land Capacity
Proposal and Alternatives
The proposal is to redevelop the Sunset Terrace public housing community and promote associated
neighborhood growth and revitalization as part of a Planned Action.Redevelopment of the public
housing community and adoption of a Planned Action Ordinance would encourage redevelopment in
the Planned Action Study Area through land use transformation and growth,public service and
infrastructure improvements,and a streamlined environmental review process.The Renton
Housing Authority(RHA) is the proponent of the proposal's primary development action,
redevelopment of the existing Sunset Terrace public housing community;however,RHA wou(d
likely redevelop the property in partnership with other public and private non-profit and for-profit
developers and agencies.The City of Renton(City) is responsible for public service and
infrastructure improvements for Sunset Terrace and the broader Sunset Area Community
neighborhood,is the agency responsible for streamlining local permitting and environmental review
through this Planned Action,and is the agency that would regulate private neighborhood
redevelopment in accordance with its Comprehensive Plan and development regulations.
The City analyzed three alternatives(Alternatives 1,2,and 3) as part of the Draft EIS to determine
its Preferred Alternative.The Preferred Alternative is evaluated in the Final EIS.A Reevaluation
Alternative was developed through a NEPA Reevaluation and SEPA Addendum process in 2014.
Similarly,a 2016 Reevaluation Alternative was evaluated through a NEPA Reevaluation and SEPA
Addendum in 2016.All six alternatives are described below.
Alternative 1 (No Action). RHA would develop affordable housing on two vacant properties,but it
would not redevelop the Sunset Terrace pub ic housing property.Very limited public investment
would be implemented by the City,resulting in lesser redevelopment across the Planned Action
Study Area.A Planned Action would not be designated.The No Action Alternative is required to be
studied under NEPA and SEPA.
Alternative 2.This alternative represents a moderate level of growth in the Planned Action Study
Area based on investment in mixed-income housing and mixed uses in the Potential Sunset Terrace
Redevelopment Subarea,targeted infrastructure and public services throughout the Planned Action
Study Area,and adoption of a Planned Action Ordinance.
Alternative 3.This alternative represents the highest level of growth in the Planned Action Study
Area,based on investment in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea with a greater
Planned Action Ordinance

number dwellings developed in a mixed-income,mixed-use sryle,major public investment in study
area infrastructure and services,and adoption of a Planned Action Ordinance.
Preferred Alternative. This alternative represents neighborhood growth similar to and slightly less
than Alternative 3 in the Planned Action Study Area,based on investment in the Potential Sunset
Terrace Redevelopment Subarea with a moderate number dwellings developed in a mixed-income,
mixed-use style oriented around a larger park space and loop road,major public investment in study
area infrastructure and services,and adoption of a Planned Action Ordinance.
2014 Reevaluation Alternative.This alternative proposes neighborhood growth the same as
Alternative 3,with slightly more units(approximately 90) redirected to the Sunset Terrace subarea.
Sunset Terrace would have a mixed-income,mixed-use development similar to Alternative 3 and the
Preferred Alternative,with a larger park and with dwellings focused more along SR 900.
Greenstreets,library uses,and other investments would be similar to those proposed for Alternative
3 and the Preferred Alternative.
2016 Reevaluation Alternative.An amended master plan was developed in 2016 addressing RHA
revised proposals to develop replacement housing for the Sunset Terrace redevelopment on five
parcels located outside but abutting the 2014 Master Plan area-three parcels would be added to
the Sunset Court Park site and developed with 50 apartments and townhomes,and two parcels
would be added to properties north of the"loop road"in the Harrington Park development
providing 19 townhomes.Within the 2014 Master Plan boundaries there would also be unit
transfers from one site to another.With the 2016 revisions to the Master Plan and addition of the
abutting parcels,there would be no net increase in the total number of housing units in the Master
Plan area or in the Sunset Area neighborhood. However,consistent with the flexibility allowed by
the adopted Master Plan,some units would be redistributed.
Land Capacity
To determine future growth scenarios for the next 20 years,a land capacity analysis was prepared.
The alternatives produce different future growth estimates. Each would affect different amounts of
property.
Alternative 1 assumes that about 16%(35 acres) of the 213 net acres of Planned Action Study
Area parcels would infill or redevelop.
Alternative 2 assumes that about 32%(68 acres) of the Planned Action Study Area parcels
would infill or redevelop.
Alternative 3 assumes that approximately 40%(84 acres] of the Planned Action Study Area
parcels would infill or redevelop.
The Preferred Alternative assumes that approximately 40%(84 acres) of the Planned Action
Study Area parcels would infill or redevelop.
The Reevaluation Alternatives 2014 and 2016 assume the same Planned Action Study Area
growth levels as Alternative 3,with slight differences in distribution towards the Sunset Terrace
subarea.
The latter three alternatives-Alternative 3,the Preferred Alternative,and the Reevaluation
Alternatives in 2014 and 2016 which are similar-represent the higher growth levels studied in the
EIS and differ,when compared at the Planned Action area as a whole,by about 7%;these three

In November 2014,the City conducted a NEPA Reevaluation pursuant to Section 58.47 of US
Department of Housing and Urban Development's(HUD's) NEPA regulations.SEPA also provides a
process using an Addendum to the prior FEIS where information or analysis does not substantially
change prior conclusions about impacts(WAC 197-11-706).
Based on updated master planning in 2014, some changes in units were considered(90 more

The City also proposed a larger park than was considered under either of the selected alternatives,
and accordingly some buildings increased in height or numbers of units.Some streets were
proposed for reclassification to achieve the circulation proposals and"green streets"in the Final EIS.
Setbacks of buildings from the future SR 900 improvement boundaries are less than for the
Preferred Alternative.
As the analysis in the Reevaluation shows,no substantive changes in conclusions or required
mitigation are needed as a result of the revised alternative,termed the"2014 Reevaluation
Alternative."
Reevaluation Alternative: 2016
The proposed developments would meet City standards for density,height,setbacks,transportation
levels of service,connection to utilities,and would be subject to City parking codes,including
procedures for modifying applicable standards.The new developments would be incorporated into
an amended Master Plan pursuant to RMC Title IV.Also,the SEPA Planned Action Ordinance could
be amended to include the revised Master Plan concept.
In total,722 dwelling units are being proposed in the study area,which is to the same as the number
of units considered in the 2014 Reevaluation.See Table 4.

While the net units in Sunset Terrace are lower in 2016 than in 2014 per Table 5,this is a reflection
of the boundaries of the 2011 Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Area that did not include
several replacement housing sites which were part of the neighborhood growth studied in the EIS.
Some of the housing replacement sites are part of the am,ended Master Plan for Sunset Terrace.
Some potential dwelling units are proposed to be transferred among three individual Master Plan
sites.However,the total number of units that could be developed in the Master Plan area would
remain the same.Similarly,the overall neighborhood development and growth would be the same
as in 2011 and 2014.

Mitigation Document
Based on the EIS and Reevaluation/Addendum(2014 and 2016)this Mitigation Document identifies
significant adverse environmental impacts that are anticipated to occur as a result of development
of planned action projects. Mitigation measures identified in the EIS are reiterated here for
inclusion in proposed projects to mitigate related impacts and to qualify as Planned Action projects.
Consistency review under the Planned Action,development plan review,and other permit approvals
will be required for specific development actions under the Proposed Action pursuant to WAC 197-
11-172.Additional project conditions may be imposed on planned action projects based upon the
analysis of the proposal in relationship to independent requirements of the City,state or federal
requirements or review criteria.
Any applicant for a project within the Planned Action area may propose alternative mitigation
measures,if appropriate and/or as a result of changed circumstances,in order to allow equivalent
substitute mitigation for identified impacts. Such modifications shall be evaluated by the City's SEPA
Responsible Official prior to any project approvals by the City.
In combination,regulations applicable to each element of the environment and mitigation measures
identified in the EIS and documented in this Mitigation Document that are applied to any planned
action proposal will adequately mitigate all significant environmental impacts associated with
planned action proposals,except for those impacts that are identified as"significant unavoidable
adverse impacts."

Unavoidable Adverse Impacts
None of the alternatives would have significant unavoidable adverse impacts on water resources,
because the redevelopment would likely result in an improvement of runoff and recharge water
quality.In addition,the net change in effective impervious area can be adequately mitigated through
the self-mitigating features(e.g.,green connections,drainage master plan,etc.) of the Planned
Action alternatives and through implementation of the stormwater code,as described below.
Mitigation Measures
All of the alternatives would involve redevelopment and reduction of existing pollution-generating
impervious surfaces in the Planned Action Study Area.In addition,per the requirements of the
stormwater code,the redeveloped properties would be required to provide water quality treatment
for all remaining pollution-generating impervious surfaces.The net reduction in untreated
pollution-generating impervious surfaces throughout the study area is,therefore,considered to
result in a net benefit to surface water quality.Each of the alternatives would result in a slight
increase in the effective impervious area of the Planned Action Study Area.
Self mitigating features of the Planned Action Alternatives are listed below:
Under Alternative 3,mitigation would be provided in advance or incrementally through the
public stormwater infrastructure features including a combination of green connections,
regional stormwater flow control,and possible public-private partnership opportunities for
retrofits.Conceptual design and planning of the public stormwater infrastructure would be
developed under a drainage master plan for the Study Area.It could be developed in advance of
likely through grants or city funds) or incrementally as development occurs depending on
opportunity costs of constructing the improvements.The extent and form of the public
infrastructure projects would be refined through the drainage master plan development and
further design.The goal under Alternative 3 would be to provide sufficient advance public
infrastructure improvements to balance the anticipated increase in effective impervious area.

This strategy would only require that future developments implement flow-control BMPs,but

Connection project.This corridor would be enhanced by narrowing through-traffic lanes to calm
traffic,create wide planter areas to accommodate large trees and rain gardens to mitigate
stormwater runaff,and create wider sidewalks.This project would be implemented as a public
infrastructure retrofit project pending available funds.The remaining green connections
projects would likely be implemented as revised roadway standards to require incremental
redevelopment of the frontage as redevelopment occurs (constructed either by future
developers or the City,depending on availability of funds).In addition to the Green Connections
projects,the City will implement regional detention/retention irnpravements to provide
advance mitigation for future increases in impervious area that could result from
redevelopment.I,ocations of the regionai facilities would include the western margin of the

Unavoidable Adverse Impacts
Housing in the Planned Action Study Area would likely redevelop to some degree to take advantage
of adopted plans and zoning.However,the alternatives would allow for the construction of new
dwelling units to replace those that are eliminated.Lower-cost housing could be replaced with more
costly housing. Implementation of City regulatory incentives and use of federal,state,and local
housing funds and programs could reduce potential affordability impacts.Through its regular
Comprehensive Plan review cycles,the City could monitor housing trends in the neighborhood and
adapt measures to promote affordability.
During construction and in the short-term,residents would be subject to construction activities and
the tenants of the Sunset Terrace complex would be required to relocate during demolition and
construction. However,relocation assistance mitigation measures for RHA units would mitigate
impacts.

Unavoidable Adverse Impacts
The impacts on cultural resources caused by new development associated with any alterative could
be significant and unavoidable,depending on the nature and proximity of the proposed
development project.Implementation of mitigation measures set forth in Draft EIS Section 4.13.2 as
amended in the Final EIS would identify potential impacts on cultural resources,at which point
measures to reduce them to less than significant could be taken.

Construction Mitigation
Temporary mitigation during construction may be
necessary to ensure safe travel and manage traffic
delays.The following mitigation measures shall be
implemented prior to or during construction within
the Planned Action Study Area.
Prior to construction:
o Assess pavement and subsurface condition
of roadways being proposed for transport of
construction materials and equipment.
Ensure pavement can support loads.
Adequate pavement quality would likely
reduce the occurrence of potholes and
would help maintain travel speeds.
o Alert landowners and residents of potential
construction.Motorists may be able to
adjust schedules and routes to avoid
construction areas and minimize
disruptions.
o Develop traffic control plans for a11 affected
roadways.Outline procedures for
maintenance of traffic,develop detour plans,
and identify potential reroutes.
o Place advance warning signage on roadways
surrounding construction locations to
minimize traffic disturbances.
During construction:
o Place advance warning signage on NE
Sunset Boulevard and adjacent arterials to
warn motorists of potential vehicles
entering and exiting the roadway.Signage
could include"Equipment on Road,""Truck
Access,"or"Slow Vehicles Crossing."
o Use pilot cars as dictated by the Washington
State Department of Transportation
WSDOT).
o Encourage carpooling among construction
workers to reduce traffic volume to and
fi-om the construction site.
o Employ flaggers,as necessary,to direct
traffic when vehicles or large equipment are
entering or exiting the public road system to
minimize risk of conflicts between trucks
and passenger vehicles.
o Maintain at least one travel lane at all times,
if possible.Use flaggers to manage

payable to the City as specified by t he Renton
Municipal Code.
The following four mitigation measures would
help improve the availability or access to parks
and recreation facilities in the Planned Action
Study Area.
The City is initiating a parks,recreation,open
space and natural resources plan for
completion in 2011.That plan could identify
alternative LOS standards and parks and
recreation opportunities inside or outside of
the Planned Action Study Area that could
serve the local population.
The City is considering amendments to its
development codes that would provide for
payment of a fee-in-lieu for required common
open space.As proposed,the fee-in-lieu
option could be executed when development
sites are located within 0.25 mile of a public
park and when that park can be safely
accessed by pedestrians.The City's package of
amendments also includes park impact fees.
The City and Renton School District could
develop a joint-use agreement for public use
of school grounds for parks and recreation
purposes during non-school hours.Joint-use
agreements between the City and Renton
School District could also be used to,at least
partially,address the LOS deficiencies in
existing recreation facilities.
The City could add parks and recreation
facilities such as:
o The City could convert current public
properties no longer needed for their
current uses to parks and recreation uses,
such as the Highlands Library that is
intending to move and expand off site.
Draft EIS Figure 4.15-2 shows properties
in public use.
o The City could purchase private property
for parks and recreation use.An efficient
means would be to consider properties in
the vicinity of existing parks and
recreation facilities or where additional
population growth would be greatest.
Draft EIS Figure 4.15-2 shows locations
where future demand could be greater
and where the City could focus acquisition
efforts.

the future and adjust its facility planning
accordingly.The district will continue to
implement existing plans to expand permanent
student capacity at area schools.In addition,the
district may utilize portable classrooms or shift
attendance boundaries to address student
capacity issues that arise on a shorter term basis.
The district will also continue monitoring growth
in the number of English Language Learner
students in the district,and plan additional
capacity in that program to meet growing
demands for that service,particularly in schools
with high percentages of English Language
Learners,such as Highlands Elementary.
The school district imposes a school impact fee for
new residential construction.This funding source
can be used to help provide expanded school
facilities needed to serve the growth anticipated
under all alternatives(RMC 4-1-160).
Health Care
There are no mitigation measures needed or
proposed for health care due to the negligible
change in the number of beds.
Social Services
The City's planned improvements to the
streetscape and transit facilities that make
walking,bicycling,and taking transit more viable
modes of transportation would improve
accessibility of social services located outside the

A. If any City of Renton employee or any of the contractors or subcontractors believes that he or
she has made an unanticipated discovery of human skeletal remains or cultural resources,all
work adjacent to the discovery shall cease.The area of work stoppage will be adequate to
provide for the security,protection,and integrity of the human skeletal remains,in accordance
with Washington State Law.The City of Renton project manager will be contacted.
B. The City of Renton project manager or the City of Renton representative will be responsible for
taking appropriate steps to protect the discovery.At a minimum,the immediate area will be
secured to a distance of thirty(30)feet from the discovery.Vehicles,equipment,and
unauthorized personnel will not be permitted to traverse the discovery site.
C. If skeletal remains are discovered,the City of Renton will immediately call the King County
Sheriffs office,the King County Coroner,and a cultural resource specialist or consultant
qualified to identify human skeletal remains.The county coroner will determine if the remains
are forensic or non-forensic(whether related to a criminal investigation).The remains should
be protected in place until this has been determined.
D. If the human skeletal remains are determined to be non-forensic,the King County Coroner will
notify the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation.DAHP will
take jurisdiction over the remains.The State Physical Anthropologist will make a determination
of whether the remains are Native American or Non-Native American.DAHP will handle all

Water
The mitigation measures that are required in the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea
are similar to those noted for the Planned Action Study Area.The water storage deficit would be met
with an increase in storage at the existing Highlands Reservoirs site,and fire-flow requirements
would require the new 12-inch-diameter pipe loop throughout this subarea and realignment of the
Highlands 435 and Highlands 565 pressure zones.As noted previously,the City has recently
installed a new 12-inch-diameter main for development adjacent to this subarea,and as
development occurs in the subarea,the pipe network would need to be extended to serve the
development.A more detailed discussion of needed system improvements is provided below.
See NEPA Reevaluation/SEPA Addendum(October 2014) for more recent considerations on
location of pipes and fire flow requirements.
Overview
Renton fire and building codes mandate minimum fire flows,durations,and pressure prior to
occupancy of new structures. In the case of the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea
these mandated flows dictate substantial upgrades to the water distribution system. When the fire
flow required for a new development exceeds 2,500 gallons per minute(gpm),the City also requires
that the mains providing that fire flow be looped. Looped water mains provide more reliability and
higher pressures under fire-flow conditions. City regulations also require installation of fire
hydrants along all arterials such as NE Sunset Boulevard.
Taken together these code requirements would lead to a series of new water mains connected to the
565 pressure zone and extended to the various redevelopment projects within the subarea. It is not
possible to predict the precise timing and sequencing of these redevelopment projects. The
following paragraphs illustrate one scenario of water main sequencing that could meet fire-flow
requirements.
Edmonds-Glenwood Phase 1
Phase 1 of the Edmonds-Glenwood redevelopment project consists of townhomes along Glenwood
Avenue NE. Fire-flow requirements for this project are expected to be in the range of 2,500 gpm.
The existing water system in Glenwood Avenue NE cannot provide that amount of fire flow. A new
12-inch-diameter water main would be required to be extended from Harrington Avenue NE and NE
12th Street in the 565 pressure zone,south along Harrington Avenue NE,and continuing along
Glenwood Avenue NE past and through the project site,about 800 feet of new pipe(Segment A on
Figure 3.17-1).
New Library
A new library is proposed in the northeast quadrant of NE Sunset Boulevard and Harrington Avenue
NE. If the fire-flow requirements for the new library are about 2,500 gpm or less,then the existing
12-inch-diameter main in NE Sunset Boulevard could meet that requirement.

ATTACHMENT B
New Mixed-Use Building Adjacent to New Library
A new mixed-use community service/retail/residential structure is proposed adjacent to the new
library between NE Sunset Boulevard,NE 10th Street,and Sunset Lane NE. It is reasonable to expect
that the combination of additional structure size and exposure(to the library)would mandate fire
flows for this building in excess of 2,500 gpm. In that case,a looped system of mains from the 565
pressure zone would be required. This could be achieved by extending new mains from the existing
12-inch-diameter main in NE Sunset Boulevard northwesterly on both Harrington Avenue NE and
NE 10th Street to Sunset Lane NE. The loop could then be connected by installing a new 12-inch-
diameter main in Sunset Lane NE from Harrington Avenue NE to NE 10th Street.The existing water
main in Sunset Lane NE could then be abandoned in place. This new loop would be about 700 feet in
total length(Segment B on Figure 3.17-1).
RHA's Piha Site (aka Suncrest Homes)
Fire flows required for the Piha site development have not been established. If the flow requirement
is 2,500 gpm or less,then it could be met by extending a new 12 inch main in NE 10 h Street past the
site to Harrington Avenue NE. The extension could either be from NE Sunset Boulevard(if the
project precedes the mixed use development adjacent to the library). Or it could be from Sunset
Lane NE,if the project occurs after the mixed use development adjacent to the library. The length of
pipe required from Sunset Boulevard would be about 500 feet;from Sunset Lane NE it would be
about 350 feet. (Segment C on Figure 3.17-1)
It is possible that required fire flows for the Piha site would exceed 2,500 gpm. In that situation a
looped main system would be necessary. There are multiple scenarios to meet the looping
requirements. Those fire flow looping scenarios depend largely on the timing and sequencing of the
PISA site project;i.e.does it precede or follow other redevelopment projects contemplated for the
project area.
Under one scenario,if the Piha site development precedes construction of Phase II and III of the
Sunset Terrace redevelopment looping could be achieved by extending another main(in addition to
Segment C,discussed above) north on Harrington Avenue NE to Glenwood Avenue NE (Segment H
on Figure 3.17-1). If Piha site development follows Phases II and III of Sunset Terrace,looping could
be achieved by simply connecting the Piha main extension in NE 10th Street(Segment C)with
Segment E at the intersection of Harrington Avenue NE and NE lOth Street.
Under another scenario,the Piha site development could proceed before all other projects. In that
case the cost of looping would not be shared with other projects as described in the preceding
paragraphs and the Piha site project would need to install either a"long-term"or a"temporary" 12
inch diameter"stand alone"water main loop.
The"long-term"alignment would be to extend a 12-inch main in Harrington Avenue NE connecting
to the existing high-pressure water line in NE Sunset Blvd. This option would result in the
installation of a new water main in the section of Harrington Avenue NE that is proposed to be
vacated to help create the Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Neighborhood Park. The new 12-inch
water main would be looped around the west and north side of the new Piha site building and
extended southerly in Sunset Lane NE to NE lOth Street,then southeasterly in NE 10th Street to
connect back to the existing 12-inch line in Sunset Boulevard NE. (Segment P1 on Figure 3.17-1)
This new looped water main would be able to deliver about 5,000 gpm.

A temporary route(which is not the preferred option)to provide 5,000 gpm to the same site would
be to extend two paralle112-inch water lines in NE lOth Street from the existing 12-inch line in
Sunset Boulevard NE,along with a looped water main around the west and north side of the
building,and a 12-inch line in Sunset Lane NE connecting back to the second new 12-inch main in
NE 10 h Street. (Segment P2 on Figure 3.17-1)
Sunset Terrace Redevelopment
It is reasonable to assume that the fire flows required for the Sunset Terrace redevelopment would
exceed 2,500 gpm,mandating installation of a looped system. In addition,Sunset Terrace abuts NE
Sunset Boulevard,triggering the requirement to install hydrants every 400 feet along that arterial.
It may be possible to phase the Sunset Terrace redevelopment in a manner that would allow early
elements of the redevelopment to be constructed without looping the water mains(see Edmonds-
Glenwood Phase 1,above). In any case,all mains serving the redevelopment would be extended
from the 565 pressure zone.
Initially,a new water main would be installed in Sunset Lane NE from Harrington Avenue NE to
Glenwood Avenue NE(about 750 feet). This presumes that the new main in Harrington Avenue NE
discussed in the Mixed-Use Building section,above,has been installed. The existing water main in
Sunset Lane NE could be abandoned in place(Segment D on Figure 3.17-1).
Looping the system could be achieved by extending the main from the intersection of Sunset Lane
NE and Glenwood Avenue NE along the newly aligned NE 10th Street to Harrington Avenue NE
about 250 feet) (Segment E on Figure 3.17-1).This presumes that the water main extension in NE
lOth Street to serve RHA's Piha site has already be installed.
There are two ways to install the required fire hydrants along NE Sunset Boulevard. One option
would be to extend the 12-inch-diameter main in NE Sunset Boulevard from Harrington Avenue NE
along the Sunset Terrace frontage(about 800 feet). This would be the most expensive option.
Another option would be to extend fire hydrant leads southwesterly through the Sunset Terrace
project from Sunset Lane NE to NE Sunset Boulevard at the appropriate intervals(Segments F on
Figure 3.17-1).This would be the least expensive option for two reasons. First,the pipes would not
be installed in a street avoiding significant restoration costs. Second,the pipes could be smaller
because they would be single purpose and not part of the City's transmission/distribution system.
Edmonds-Glenwood Phase 2
Fire-flow requirements for the Edmonds-Glenwood Phase 2 project are expected to be about 4,000
gpm,triggering the requirement to loop the water system. There are two options to meet this
looping requirement:north or south.
The north option would involve extending the 12-inch-diameter main from Phase 1 westerly
through the site to Edmonds Avenue NE. From there,the main would be extended north in
Edmonds Avenue NE to NE 12th Street,then east in NE 12th Street to Harrington Avenue NE,a
distance of more than 1,500 feet(Segment G on Figure 3.17-1).
The south option would begin in the same manner by extending the Phase 1 main through the
project site. Looping would be achieved by installing two new mains. One would extend from
Sunset Lane NE north in Glenwood Avenue NE to the Phase 1 pipe. The other would extend

northwesterly in easements adjacent to NE Sunset Boulevard and Edmonds Avenue NE from the
northern-most fire hydrant lead installed for the Sunset Terrace project through the Phase 2 site. (A
more expensive option would be to install this same section of pipe in the rights-of-way of NE Sunset
Boulevard and Edmonds Avenue NE.) These loops would also comprise more than 1,500 feet of new
pipe (Segment H on Figure 3.17-1).
Water Main Costs
The cost of installation for new water mains is driven by a number of factors. Water mains installed
in roads are more expensive than water mains installed within project or open space areas,because
of the cost savings of avoiding conflicting utilities and restoring the road surface.
New water main costs are also affected by whether they are stand-alone or part of a suite of
infrastructure improvements. If the project is only installing a new water main,then all of the
excavation,bedding,installation,and other costs are borne by that project. If the project involves
installation of the other underground utilities such as sewers or storm sewers,the costs common to
the project can be spread across each utility facility being installed.
The cost of water mains is also affected by the project sponsor. If the project is being constructed by
a private developer,new water mains are less expensive. If the project is sponsored by a
government agency,numerous statutes make new water main projects more expensive.
The City's recent experience with stand-alone water main projects in a major arterial indicate costs
per foot of about$200 to$250. Applying these costs to the water main improvement described
above would indicate costs in the range of$1 to 1.2 mil(ion.The improvements would be
implemented with City and developer funding.
Wastewater Collection
Overview
The sewers within the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment Subarea are also identified for
replacement based on age and condition in the City's Long Range Wastewater Management Plan.
Based on the increased wastewater load within the Potential Sunset Terrace Redevelopment
Subarea,the local sewers may need to be replaced with upsized pipe to manage the increased
wastewater load from the subarea.A more detailed discussion of needed sewer system
improvements is provided below.
See NEPA Reevaluation/SEPA Addendum(October 2014)for more recent considerations on
location of sewer mains and the potential for reuse of existing lines or rerouting requirements.
Detailed Discussion
Mitigation issues related to wastewater fall into three broad categories: upsizing,rehabilitation,and
relocation.
Wastewater flows(forecast for the Planned Action Study Area,including the Potential Sunset
Terrace Redevelopment Subarea) indicate that some existing sewer pipes must be replaced with
larger pipes. One of those pipes is in Harrington Avenue NE. This sewer pipe would be replaced by

the Ciry as part of the overall Sunset Terrace redevelopment to accommodate forecast flows.
Manholes along the Harrington alignment would be carefully designed and located to avoid
interference with the planned park.
The collection sewers in Sunset Lane NE are at or near the end of their design life. The condition of
these sewers would be assessed to determine if they can be rehabilitated in place or if new pipes
would need to be installed.
The redevelopment concept proposes narrowing and shifting the alignment of Sunset Lane NE. If
this action leaves the existing sewers too close to new structures,then the City would require that a
new sewer main be installed within the new right-of-way of Sunset Lane NE.
