Construction Mitigation Description
for
Boun Short Plat
The proposed plat of Boun Short Plat will involve clearing and grading for the construction of new road
improvements, installation of utilities, and other land disturbance activities. The following is a summary of
how these activities are expected to be carried out and managed to minimize impacts and comply with
applicable rules and regulations during this phase of the project:
· Anticipated Construction Schedule:
Clearing and grading is likely to begin in summer 2016 assuming the entitlements and
permits are approved. The bulk of the work should be completed in fall 2016. Based on this
schedule, we expect that the plat could be ready for recording in winter 2017, with home
building to commence after the plat is recorded. Model home construction may commence
prior to recording as allowed by the City of Renton.
· Hours and Days of Operation:
The typical hours of operation for construction will be from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the winter
months. During the summer months, construction will begin at 7 a.m. and may extend to
7 p.m. (pending approval from the City of Renton). The typical work week will be Monday
through Friday. Construction work may also take place on Saturday, as normally allowed by
the City of Renton, especially during the dry season (April to October) in order to expedite
completion of the project during the dry season.
· Proposed Hauling/Transportation Routes:
The haul route for importing or exporting materials to and from the site will be determined
after coordination with the City of Renton Inspector prior to the start of construction.
However, we would anticipate that the haul route would include Chelan Avenue N.E. to N.E.
10th Street then north or south on N.E. Duvall Avenue depending on the location where the
contractor decides where to receive/export materials.
· Measures to be Implemented to Minimize Dust, Traffic and Transportation Impacts,
Erosion, Mud, Noise, and other Noxious Characteristics:
All temporary erosion and sedimentation control measures required by the City of Renton and
other agencies will be implemented and maintained (e.g., rock construction entrance, silt
fencing, temporary sediment pond, straw mulching and hydro seeding). Also, as required by
DOE, a Certified Erosion Control Lead will be assigned to the project and all erosion BMPs
will be implemented and maintained as required by the NPDES Permit for the duration of the
project. Watering will be implemented as necessary to control dust during the summer
months and all construction equipment will be equipped with appropriate mufflers to comply
with local noise ordinances.
· Any Special Hours Proposed for Construction or Hauling (i.e., weekends, late nights):
If it is determined that additional hours are needed to complete the construction, the
contractor will coordinate with the City of Renton to obtain approval for such extended hours.

· Preliminary Traffic Control Plan:
A Preliminary Traffic Control Plan has not been prepared at this time. Once the haul route(s)
has (have) been approved by the City Public Works Department, a traffic control plan will be
prepared in accordance with the City Road Standards. Frontage improvements will be limited
to constructing curb, gutter, planter, and sidewalk on N.E. Duvall Avenue and Chelan
Avenue N.E. where shoulder closures will be implemented.
