JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
ABSTRACT
Larson Anthropological and Archaeological Services (LAAS) conducted a cultural resource
assessment for the proposed JAG Development Project in February and March of 1997.
Examination of archival sources revealed that the Duwamish village, Sbal't", was located at
the former mouth of May Creek and is probably within the Pan Abode Cedar Homes property
or on the Port Quendall property (Harrington ca_ 1909; Waterman ca. 1920). The site was
identified as a place where fish were dried and May Creek was noted as a spawning area for
"redfish" (either sockeye salmon or lake-locked kokanee salmon) (Harrington ca. 1909;
Waterman ca. 1920). The fieldwork involv.ed a series of opportunistic subsurface shovel
probes designed to determine if buried archaeological deposits exist in the project area. Most
· of the proposed JAG Development project area was either paved with asphalt, covered with
fill, or access was not pennitted because the area contained hazardous and dangerous
materials. Shovel probes were excavated in locations that appeared to be the least disturbed
based on an examination of historic and modern maps and consultation with Mark Larsen
(personal communication, 1997) of Remediation Technologies, Incorporated. One possibly
fire modified rock (FMR) was identified in a shovel probe at the north end of the Pan Abode
Cedar Homes property, near the old channel of May Creek. · The possible FMR was recovered
from 90 to 100 centimeters below the surface in what appeared to be alluvial deposits. No
other cultural materials or feamres were identified.
The LAAS field reconnaissance was unable to detennine if any materials or features related to
the Duwamish village, Sbal't", are present within the proposed JAG Development project area
because less than 10 percent of the project area was examined for subsurface archaeological
remains. It is recommended that a professional archaeologist monitor areas with a high
probability for cultural resources if future subsurface activities related to the proposed JAG
Development Project are planned for those areas. An archaeological monitor should be
present during any further investigation or preconstruction remediation related to the
potentially hazardous and dangerous materials at the site as well as any ground disturbing
activities associated with construction in high probability areas at the proposed JAG
Development.

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
ACK.i'IOWLEDGMENTS
Several individuals contributed to the completion of this cultural resource assessment; the
project would not have been as successful without them. Jim Spitze, CNA Architecture, was
extremely helpful in facilitating access to the proposed JAG Development property and in
providing necessary documents that LAAS needed to complete this report. Mark Larsen,
Remediation Technologies, Incorporated, also helped in securing access to the proposed JAG
Development property and provided useful information regarding the history of the var\ous
properties that are part of the proposed project. Joe Gibbons and Mike Paulson, Remediation
Technologies, Incorporated, also deserve thanks for monitoring fieldwork at the proposed JAG
Development,project area. Joe Gibbons and Mike Paulson not only related information about
hazardous and dangerous materials in the project area but also offered data regarding the soil
and fill episodes in various locations of the proposed JAG Development Project area. Finally,
Stan Greene, Renton Historical Society and Museum, gave us access to historical information
and photographs of the May Creek and Kennydale region. His cooperation and assistance was
greatly appreciated.

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
INTRODUCTION
Larson Anthropological/ Archaeological Services (LAAS) was retained by CN A Architecture
in December 1996 to conduct a cultural resource assessment of the proposed JAG
Development Projec:. The proposed JAG Development Project would occupy a 60-acre parcel
on the eastern shore of Lake Washington, west of Interstate 405 at Exit 7, NE 44th Street,
North Renton. The proposed JAG Development project area is comprised of four properties:
the Barbee Mill, the Port Quendall Log Yard, the Pan Abode Cedar Homes property, and the
Baxter Property. The Baxter Property has been divided into the South Baxter Property and the
North Baxter Property. The North Baxter Property contains the northernmost portion of the
Baxter property along the shore of Lake Washington and a small wedge of property east of the
shoreline properties, called the north Baxter Property East Wedge. The project area is in
Sections 19 and 32. Township 24 North, Range 5 East, Bellevue South Quadrangle, King
County, Washington (Figures 1 and 2).
The cultural resource assessment consisted of an archival and literature review, field
reconnaissance, consultation with the Muckleshoot Tribe and the Duwamish, and preparation
of this report. Published and unpublished environmental, ethnographic, historic, and
archaeological documents were gathered and reviewed. Environmental, ethnographic, and
historic information was collected from Special Collections, Allen Library, University of
Washington; Renton Historical Society and Museum; and the Renton Library. Archaeological
site forms and project reports were obtained from the Washington State Office of Archaeology
and Historic Preservation.
Field reconnaissance consisted of the excavation of subsurface shovel probes to determine the
potential for buried archaeological deposits in the proposed JAG Development project area.
No cultural resources were identified that may be eligible for listing on the National Register
of Historic Places. However, fill and development of the area precluded investigation of at
least 90 percent of the project area. Because ethnographic literature suggests portions of the
project area have a high probability for cultural resources, we recommend that a professional
archaeologist monitor subsurface activities, e.g. geotechnical testing, remediation of hazardous
and dangerous waste, and construction, clearing, grading, and excavation in areas of the
proposed JAG Development Project with a high probability for cultural resources.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed JAG Development would be a mixed-use area containing office space,
conference facilities, restaurants, a marina, recreational spaces, retail shops, a hotel, parking
areas, and residential properties (CNA Architecture 1997). The proposed development is
projected to begin by 1999 and be completed by approximately 2010 (CNA Architecture
1997).

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
ENVIRONMENT
The proposed JAG Development project area is on the eastern shore of Lake Washington in a
small valley where May Creek enters the lake. Prior to historic manipulation of the channel,
May Creek dropped from a narrow meandering stream in upland locations to a braided stream
at the mouth which formed a delta. Historic and modern maps of the area show that the mouth
of May Creek naturally moved over time but was also altered to its present course by 1940
(Figure 3) (Kroll Map Company 1940). Most of the proposed JAG Development project area
was probably inundated or subject to periodic flooding prior to the completion of the Lake
Washington Ship Canal in 1916 (Chrzastowski 1983). The mean water level of Lake
Washington was almost nine feet higher than its current level before the Lake Washipgton Ship
Canal was built (Chrzastowski 1983:3). The mean water level of the lake probably fluctuated
as much as seven feet, however, due to seasonal and periodic fluctuation in rainfall prior to
completion of the Lake Washington Ship Canal (Chrzastowski 1983:3). An article in the Town
Crier (1917) describes archaeological and botanical remains along the shoreline of Lake
Washington at lhe mouth of May Creek after the Lake Washington Ship Canal was completed
and the water [evel had dropped. This corroborates Chrzastowski's (1983) statement
regarding the lake's fluctuation long before the Lake Washington Ship Canal was built.
Periodic advance and retreat of glaciers over the last 37,000 years is largely responsible for
the topography and soils present in the Puget Sound basin. The glacial event responsible for
the current topography of the Seattle area was tbe Vashon Stade of the Fraser Glaciation
(Mullineaux 1970:27). The Vashon glacier originated in British Columbia and brought rocks
and minerals typical of that area southward into the Puget Sound area (Mullineaux 1970:27)
The Vashon glacier began a retreat approximately 1'4000 BP (years before present) and
allowed marine waters into Puget Sound (Crandell 1963). The glacier had fully retreated
approximately 13000 BP leaving deposits collectively known as the Vashon Drift (Galster and
Laprade 1991:252). Lake Washington is one of several glacially scoured lakes in the Seattle
area (Galster and Laprade 1991:247). The Lake Washington vicinity was a glacially scoured
trough prior to 14000 BP. Marine water filled what was to become Lake Washington as the
Vashon Stade retreated northward around 13500 BP. The Cedar River deposited an alluvial
fan across the south end of the marine embayment to fonn Lake Washington by 13400 BP
(Dragovich et al. 1994; Leopold et al. 1982; Mu!lineax 1970).
The shoreline of Lake Washington also fluctuated several times over the past 7,000 years
because of earthquakes (Karlin and Abella 1992, 1993). Large earthquakes triggered
underwater slumping on steep submerged trough walls and landslides on shoreline bluffs.
Over 14 earthquake events were identified in cores from the lake bottom (Karlin and Abella
1992, 1993). The sediment record coincides with dates obtained from submerged forests that
slid into the lake as pan of landslide debris. A forest that slid into Lake Washington during an
1100 BP earthquake along the Seattle Fault, is off the southeast corner of Mercer Island, just
west of the proposed JAG Development project area. The landslides and underwater slumping

caused large amplitude changes in the lake level (Karlin and Abella 1992: 1619). Sudden
landslides coupled with ground subsidence from an earthquake probably produced large waves
that scoured the Lake Washington shoreline, causing additional landslides and depositing
sediment. Large waves and earthquake-induced elevation changes in ground surface elevations
probably modified the outfall of Lake Washington at the Black River, south of the proposed
JAG Development project area. The proposed JAG Development project area is
approximately three miles south of the Seattle Fault and would have been uplifted during an
earthquake about l, 100 years ago.
The geological history of the proposed JAG Development project area is complex. Changing
ground surface elevations and fluctuating levels of Lake Washington caused the project area to
be exposed above the Lake Washington shoreline, washed by waves, and/or inundated by
rising lake levels. Hunter-fisher-gatherer sites in the area were alternately raised and/or
inundated. Cultural deposits were probably covered by landslide debris and/or silt during
periods of submergence. The contemporary ground surface of the project area is probably at a
higher elevation than prior to 1,100 years ago, when the area was uplifted during an
earthquake. This suggests that pre-1100 BP shorelines may exist inland from the
contemporary shoreline in the eastern portion of the project area. Pre-llOO BP hunter-fisher-
gatherer occupations may occur in the eastern portion of the ·project area and may be buried
beneath landslide debris or alluvial deposits.
Prior to European contact, the Puget Sound basin was home to animals typical of the Pacific
Northwest inland forest environment such as deer (Odocoileus spp.), elk (Cervus canadensis),
black bear (Ursus americanus), coyote (Canis latrans), fox (Vulpes), mountain lion {Fe/is
concolor), bobcat (Lynx rufus), raccoon (Procyon locor), mink (Mustela vison), river otter
(J,urra canadensis), beaver (Castor canadensis), and muskrat (Ondatra ziethica). Various
species of salmon were also abundant in the Puget Sound basin and were a large part of the
diet of native inhabitants of the region. The Puget Sound basin is part of the Western hemlock
(Tsuga heterophylla) physiographic zone. The overstory vegetation includes Douglas fir,
big!eaf maple, Western red cedar and red alder. Understory vegetation of particular
importance to the native inhabitants of the Puget Sound area included a variety of berries such
as salmonberry, blackberry, strawberry, and red elderberry, camas and other lilies, ferns, and
numerous other plants used for economic purposes (Gunther 1981).
CULTURAL BACKGROUND
PREVIOUS CULTURAL RESOURCE STUDIES
Most of the property on Lake Washington has been privately owned for several decades,
consequently, few archaeological studies have been conducted along the lake. An
archaeological site has never been recorded on Lake Washington despite rnany references to
Duwamish villages along the shores of the lake in historical documents (Harrington ca. 1909;
6
JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
Waterman ca. 1920). Residential and cormnercial development of the Renton area has
prompted several archaeological projects, however, and the data from those surveys and
excavations offers evidence of the nature of hunter-fisher-gatherer archaeological sites in the
region.
The Sbabidid Site (45KI51) is on the west side of Hardie Avenue SW in Renton along a
remnant channel of the Black River and was recorded by the Office of Public Archaeology
(OPA), University of Washington, as part of a survey for the Earlington Woods Planned Unit
Development (Chatters 1981:1). The site contained the remains of at least three structures and
midden deposits which dated from AD 1790 to AD 1856 although radiocarbon dates were not
obtained for several portions of the site (Ct)atters 1981:1). Archaeological deposits were
buried approximately one meter below the surface and backhoe trenches were excavated to
help determine the depth of buried deposits (Chatters 1981 :31). The precise nature of the site
has been disputed (Butler 1990), but it appers that the site was either a Duwamish village or a
fishing camp. Subsequent monitoring by Reid (1991:22) during the construction of the
Earlington Woods Development revealed the presence of seven additional midden areas at the
Sbabidid Site. The Ozbolt property, adjacent and north of the Sbabidid Site, was surveyed by
LAAS in 1988 but no cultural resources were identified despite site maps for the Sbabidid site
that suggest midden deposits were recorded on this property (Larson 1988:1,13). The survey
was conducted using surface reconnaissance and shovel testing and Larson (1988: 1,13)
attributed the absence of cultural materials identified during this survey to their probable depth
below the fill. BOAS conducted a cultural resource assessment of the Ozbolt property in 1990
and produced a letter report that indicated the presence of a possible burial on the property
(Stump 1990: 1). Trade beads, buttons, twisted cedar thread, a fragment of cloth, fragments of
woven cedar bark, cedar wood, and a human bone fragment were identified in a subsurface
survey of the property (Stump 1990:1). LAAS later surveyed the Ozbolt property for a
proposed apartment complex and relocated the northernmost midden deposits identified by
Chatters (1981) and additional midden deposits in the eastern portion of the property (Lewarch
et al. 1996:16).
The Tualdad Altu Site (45KI59) was recorded by OPA in 1980 when archaeologists surveyed
the planned development of the Black River Corporate Park located downstream from the
Sbabidid Site on the former Black River (Chatters 1988:2). Chatters (1988:50) believed the
site was occupied approximately 1600 BP (before present) but corrected radiocarbon dates for
the Tualdad Altu Site suggest that the site was occupied approximately 1400 BP (Lewarch et
al. 1996:3-5). The Tualdad Altu Site is buried below more than one meter of sterile alluvium
(Chatters 1988:37, 47). Chatters (1988:134) believed that the pattern of artifacts, hearths, and
midden deposits at the Tualdad Altu Site represented a similar way of life to that of the
occupants of the Sbabidid Site despite approximately 1600 years between occupations.
45KI439 was recorded by LAAS in 1994 and is approximately 200 feet east of the Sbabidid
Site on the east side of Hardie Avenue SW in Renton (Lewarch et al. 1994:Appendix 2). The
site was identified in backhoe trenches and is approximately one meter below the surface
(Lewarch 1994:1). Four hearths containing fire modified rock, midden deposits three to eight

centimeters thick, calcined bone, charcoal, and historic period midden deposits were identified
in tli.ree trenches (Lewarch 1994:7). The site was identified in association with archaeological
montioring of the proposed location of a Fred Meyer Corporation store (Lewarch 1994: 1).
The site is deeper than proposed construction would have taken place so no impacts to the site
were expected and no further evaluation of the site was undertaken (Lewarch 1994: 10).
The Marymoor Site ( 45KI9) is on the Sammamish River one half mile from its source at the
north end of Lake Sammamish (Greengo 1966:6). The Sammamish River and Lake
Sammamish were occupied by the Sammamish band of the Duwamish (Greengo 1966:2). The
Marymoor Site was excavated by Robert Greengo (1966) and students from the University of
Washington in 1964 (Greengo 1966:vi). The site contained numerous !ithic tools recovered
from two layers of midden deposits. A Cascade Phase lithic assemblage with leaf-shaped
Cascade points, large stemmed points, and basalt cobble tools was mixed with later cultural
materials such as small projectile points. Two radiocarbon dates from the site had corrected
age ranges between 1648 and 2741 BP (Lewarch et al. 1995:Table 1.2). Site deposits were
probably mixed during one or more earthquake events that liquefied sand beneath cultural
strata and forced the sand through cracks to the ground surface (Lewarch et al. 1995: 1-23).
Marymoor occupations probably date between 3500 BP and [000 BP based on stratigraphy,
radiocarbon dates, and diagnostic artifacts (Lewarch et al. 1995:1-23). The Marymoor Site
may have been a hunting camp whose inhabitants also lived along the shore of Lake
Washington at other times of the year (Forsman and Larson 1995:7).
Other archaeological surveys have been conducted near the proposed JAG Development
project area that failed to identify archaeological sites. OPA conducted a survey of an
extension of sanitary sewers along May Creek which tenninated at May Creek's intersection
with Interstate 405. No archaeological remains were identified but Lorenz (1976: 1) noted that
an etbnohistoric village was reported at the mouth of May Creek. Archaeological and Historic
Services (AHS), Eastern Washington University, conducted a pedestrian survey of State Road
900 in the upper May Creek Valley but no archaeological resources were idemified (Robinson
1990: 1). AHS conducted two surveys for highway development along Interstate 405 in the
Bellevue area but determined that prior disturbance due to original highway construction had
significantly disturbed native soils and no intact archaeological deposits would be encountered
(Robinson 1982a, 1982b). ABS also conducted a survey of a proposed park and ride lot in
northeast Renton approximately . 7 miles southwest of May Creek but no archaeological
resources were identified (Robinson 1983:3).
The Sbabidid Site, the Tualdad Altu Site, and 45KI439 are within five miles of the proposed
JAG Development project area and were probably occupied by the Duwamish. Sites such as
these and the May Creek village location, Sbal't", were identified by Harrington (ca. 1909)
and Waterman (ca. 1920) along the shores of Lake Washington and in upland locations in
several places. Archaeological features and artifacts such as those found at the Sbabidid Site,
the Tuladad Altu site, 45KI439, and the Marymoor Site may also be present within the
proposed JAG Development project area and may be deeply buried below the surface.

ETHNOGRAPHY
The proposed JAG Development project area is within the territory of the Duwamish, a Salish-
speaking group who lived in the general vicinity of Seattle. The Duwamish lived in a series of
villages, loosely allied through kinship and political alliances, that consisted of individual or
multiple cedar longhouses on Elliott Bay, Lake Washington, Lake Union, Salmon Bay, and on
the Duwamish, Green (formerly White), and Cedar Rivers (Duwamish et al. 1933; Harrington
ca. 1909; Larson 1986; Waterman ca. 1920). The Duwamish, who were named for a group
that lived on the Cedar River known as the Dua'bs, prospered by efficiently procuring food
resources from the rivers, lakes, and marine waters within their territory.
The Duwamish were primarily dependent on salmon for food and seasonally harvested and
processed various salmon species as the fish returned to local bays, lakes, streams, and rivers
during spawning migrations. Salmon were harvested in these waters with nets, weirs, traps,
hook and line, seines and spears. Some of the salmon were consumed fresh, but most were
dried in .smokehouses for winter storage or trade. Other marine fishes such as trout, flounder,
octopus, and cod were taken for similar pui:poses. Lake Washington hosted an especially
abundant variety of freshwater, non-salmonid species including chub, squawfish, bass, perch
and suckers, Shellfish, such as clams, mussels, and crabs, were also taken from local Puget
Sound shorelines; and freshwater mussels were gathered from lakes and streams, Waterfowl
were snared in aerial duck nets or hunted from canoes, Plant resources, especially berries and
roots, were harvested in the warmer months and processed for winter consumption, Wapato
and camas were two important plant resources used by the local native groups living on or
visiting Lake Washington (Indian Claims Commission 1955:16, 25; Lewarch et al.
1996;3.16). Wapato is a potato-like tuber that grows in flooded areas and camas is a lily-like
flowering bulb that grows in prairie environments. A visitor to Lake Washington witnessed
Duwamish canoers catTying strings of dried clams and cakes made from roots while he was
transported across Lake Washington in 1871 (Cawley 1994:3). This observation demonstrates
the accuracy of later ethnographic research and shows the tenacity of local native culture
several decades after initial contact with non-Indians.
The Duwamish focused their late summer and fall seasonal food gathering and preservation
activities towards support of their extended residence in the winter houses, Winter
ceremonials, social events, repair and maintenance of fishing equipment, and leisure were the
main activities reserved for the winter season. Several of the winter settlements on Lake
Washington were inhabited by people that spoke the Duwamish language and intermarried
with the neighboring Duwamish villages. Despite the cultural similarities this group
maintained a separate identity from their Duwamish kin and neighbors (Smith 1940: 16) and
have been collectively referred to as: the S'Ke'tehl'mish, meaning people of the Skatelbs
village near the former outlet of Lake Washington at its southerly end (Gibbs 1877; Larson
1986); the Xa'tco'abc meaning "Lake Washington Indians" (Ballard 1929:38; Harrington ca.
1909:Frame 314; Smith 1940:17); or simply the Lake Indians (Paige 1856b). The Duwamish
9

of Lake Washington lived in winter houses at Kirkland, Juanita, Yarrow Point, Mercer
Slough, Union Bay, Thornton Creek, Bryn Mawr, May Creek and McAleer Creek (Duwamish
et al. 1933; Harrington ca. 1909:314, 421; Larson 1986:31-37; Waterman ca. 1920).
The original shoreline of Lake Washington and the original mouth of May Creek are within
the proposed JAG Development project area (United States Surveyor General 1864). May
Creek was known to the Duwamish of Lake Washington as Sbal't' meaning "place where
things are dried" (Waterman 1922:191). The name referred to the "great quantities of
redfish" that were harvested at a point of land which was the mouth of May Creek (Waterman
1922: 191). "Redfish" were the run of sockeye salmon that were taken here each year. It is
unclear if the "redfish" noted by Waterman (1922: 191) are the resident "lake salmon"
recorded by Smith (1940:236) or a "select race" of sockeye salmon that migrated to outside
marine waters (Williams et al. 1975:8.601). May Creek was the site of a Duwamish village
consisting of "two medium houses" known as Shub-alugh each measuring "8 by 16 fathoms"
(48 feet by 96 feet) (Duwamish et al. 1933). This name, which is an anglicized approximation
of the term Sbal't' recorded by Waterman (1922:191), originates from testimony given by
Duwamish informants for the Indian Claims Commission in 1927 (Duwamish et al. 1933).
Harrington (ca. 1909:Frame 421) recorded a group of Duwamish called the Subaltuabs, who
took their name from May Creek, an obvious reference to the people who lived in the May
Creek village.
The Subaltuabs probably caught the sockeye and the smaller resident salmon using a
combination of traps, weirs, and dipnets. The marine run of sockeye salmon were probably
smoked in the customary way, either in a cedar planked smokehouse or dried on racks using a
combination of sunlight and a small, smoky fire (Smith 1940:238). "Lake salmon" spawned
in the small drainages of Lake Washington, such as May Creek (Smith 1940:236). They were
cleaned with the backbone left in, smoked and stored for later use.
The Subaltuabs of May Creek had strong contacts with the neighboring villages of Skatelbs,
Tuwe'b-qo and the other Duwamish villages at the confluence of the Black and Cedar Rivers.
This connection is also suggested by a historic trail from the Black River to the mouth of May
Creek, documented by U.S. territorial government surveyors in 1864 and 1865 (Figure 3)
(United States Surveyor General 1864, 1865). The largest concentration of Duwamish villages
was on the Black and Cedar Rivers, giving the May Creek villagers incentive to maintain the
trail as an overland route between villages for economic and social purposes. The trail was
also part of a system that included the trail over Naches Pass used by the Klickitat and other
plateau groups for trade missions with the Duwamish and other Puget Sound groups. The
Puget Sound groups also used the trail to gain access to upland hunting and berrying grounds
(Prater 1981:9-11).
The Subaltuabs lived at their homes on May Creek continuously until events related to the
increased Euroamerican settlement of the Seattle area began to affect aboriginal settlement
patterns. Introduced diseases, such as smallpox, were the first effects of non-native contact
felt by the Duwamish. In addition, settlers began to occupy gathering sites and fishing places,
10
JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
causing the Duwamish great concern about the increasing population of non-natives in their
territory (Lewarch et al. 1996:5.162). The United States Government attempted to address
their fears by negotiating treaties with the Duwamish and other Puget Sound tribes in 1855.
The Treaty of Point Etliot was srgned in January of 1855 by Chief Seattle for the Suquamish
and Duwamish Tribes (Lane 1975:22-23). Original surveys of the area record the village on
the Black River but fail to note any houses on May Creek (United States Surveyor General
1864, 1865). The absence of houses at May Creek in the 1860s suggests that the Subaltuabs
had moved from their wimer village and perhaps resettled at other Duwamish villages or on
nearby reservations such as the Muckleshoot or Port Madison Indian Reservations.
The Subaltuabs and the other "Lake Indians." were considered part of the larger Duwarnish
Tribe by the United States Government. The Treaty assigned the Duwamish to live on the
Port Madison Indian Reservation on the Kitsap Peninsula, far from their aboriginal territory.
Some Duwamish moved to the Port Madison Indian Reservation while others found the notion
of living in Suquamish territory unsatisfactory and stayed in their homes on the Cedar and
Black Rivers. The treaty terms and occupation of usual and accustomed fishing and gathering
places motivated some of the more aggressive tribal groups to engage in skirmishes with
regular army troops and volunteers. These were called the Indian War of 1855-56 .. Federal
officials were fearful that the Duwamish would engage in hostile activities. They were
especially concerned about the Duwamish on Lake Washington, because they had marital and
trade ties to the plateau groups like the Yakama, who maintained a strong stance against the
military. Indian agency officials attempted to restrain the Duwamish from joining the conflict
through removal to a temporary reservation in Seattle and by monitoring their movements. It
appears that the Subaltuabs remained at or near their village at May Creek for several months
after the Indian War ended according to the local Indian Agent in his December 1856 letters.
He stated that ''on the eastern shore of the Lake there are three large houses containing 38
persons" (Paige 1856a) and "the band of Lake Indians are encamped on the east side of the
Lake near the South end" (Paige 1856b).
Most of the Subaltuabs and the other "Lake Indians" eventually moved to either the Port
Madison or Muckleshoot Indian Reservations with other Duwamish people. Relocation to the
reservations was probably complete by 1930, after it became obvious to the remaining
Duwamish that a reservation was not going to be established for their exclusive use. Today,
the Muckleshoot Tribe exercises Treaty fishing rights in Lake Washington as successors to the
aboriginal rights of the "Lake Indians" and other Duwamish groups.
The types of hunter-fisher-gatherer resources expected in the JAG Development project area
would primarily relate to food gathering activities and permanent winter settlement. Remnants
of weirs, traps, smokehouses, and drying racks built for harvesting the annual sockeye runs
may be preserved beneath the ground surface. Middens and fire hearths from fish processing
and consumption of marine and freshwater resources may also be present. The project area
may also contain house posts, post molds, depressions and other remnants of former winter

houses. Projectile points, scrapers, debitage, and adze blades related to hunting and
processing land game, fish processing, and winter house maintenance and construction may
also be expected.
HISTORY
Isaac Ebey was the first non-native to observe Lake Washington while he ascended the
Duwamish River in 1850, in search of a homestead (Bagley 1929:1:27). After following the
Black River into Lake Washington, Ebey described the lake as "surrounded principally with
woodland, consisting of cedar, fir, ash, oak, etc...the water is clear and very deep" (Bagley
1929: 1 :27). Ebey named the body of water Lake Geneva, a short-lived appellation (McDonald
1979:15-19). -Lake Washington was permanently renamed Lake Washington in 1854
(McDonald 1979: 15-19). Lake Washington was also known as Lake Dawamish (sic) in early
United States territorial surveys (United States Surveyor General 1864, 1865). Ebey may have
passed May Creek, called Honeydew Creek in the 1860s (United States Surveyor General
1864), during his investigation of Lake Washington.
The proposed JAG Development project area was first settled by James Madison Colman in
1875 (Bagley 1929:1:413: Fawcett 1979). Colman, who is also listed as James Manning
Colman by a local historian (McDonald 1979:75), should not be confused with James Murray
Colman, who was a prominent Seattle sawmill operator, railroad financier and coal mine
developer. James Murray Colman originally came to Puget Sound in 1861 to operate the Port
Madison Mill (Bagley 1929:2:48-55). James Murray Colman was very active in the
development of the Columbia and Puget Sound Railroad, a line that went from Seattle to the
Newcastle coal mines 2.2 miles east of the project area. The historical occurrence of two
J. M. Colmans in close proximity to each other has caused the men to be mistakenly
identified. The J. M. Colman of May Creek will be referred to as J. Madison Colman to
avoid further confusion.
J. Madison Colman, who was born in Kentucky, came to Seattle from his home in Georgia by
ship with his wife Clarissa in approximately 1875 (Fawcett 1979; McDonald 1979:75).
Shortly after his arrival, J. Madison Colman acquired a 160-acre parcel of land bisected by
May Creek, formerly the homestead of Jeremiah Sullivan, who, in turn, had acquired the
property from the United States Government in 1873 (Remediation Technologies, Incorporated
1996: 1.1). He cleared one acre of his property and built a house where he lived with his wife
and four children (McDonald 1979:75-77). J. Madison Colman was elected to a position as
King County Commissioner in 1880 and 1882 (McDonald 1979:77). He was murdered in
1886 while rowing to Seattle to testify in a land claim dispute. The suspect in the murder was
a neighbor that Colman had accused of illegally obtaining title to his lands. The suspect was
tried three times and finally convicted, however, his sentence was later overturned (Bagley
1929:1:413-414; McDonald [979:77-78). Coleman Point at Kennydale, approximately one-
half mile south of the project area, was named for J. Madison Colman (McDonald 1979:75).

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
J. Madison Colman's widow, Clarissa, maintained ownership of the homestead after his death
but the property remained unused for several years. Lands near the northern boundary of the
project area were used for access to coal fields in the Newcastle Hills. The 1864 survey of the
area in which the JAG Development project area is located shows an unfinished wagon road
one-quarter mile northeast of the project boundary. The road runs east to west from the
shoreline of Lake Washington parallel to the northern boundary, but is entirely outside the
project area. This road was built to haul coal to Lake Washington from Newcastle for
shipment to Seattle (Bagley 1929:1:285; United States Surveyor General 1864). In 1902, the
timber on the Colman property, which still encompassed the entire project area, was sold
(Remediation Technologies, Incorporated 1996:1.1). A year later, the Northern Pacific
Railroad acquired a right-of-way through the Colman property for construction of a railroad
spur along the eastern shore 0f Lake Washington that connected Woodinville and Renton. The
Lake Washington Belt Line Railroad had attempted to build the same spur in 1890, but this
railroad was only partially completed (McDonald 1979:53). The Lake Washington Belt Line
Railroad was intended to unite iron ore from the Cascades with coal from near the Carbon
River for processing purposes. The railroad route along the eastern shore was later built by
the Northern Pacific Company around 1905 (O'Hare 1905; Slauson 1976:182; Way 1989:37-
38) with five stations along Lake Washington: Kirkland, Houghton, Northrup, Wilburton, and
May Creek (Scott and Turbeville 1983:53).
The Colman family began selling parts of their 160-acre homestead after 1908. In 1916. Peter
Reilly purchased a waterfront portiou of the original Colman property (Remediation
Technologies, Incorporated 1996: 1.1). This parcel of land became the Quendall Terminals
Property where Reilly established the Republic Creosote Company in 1917; later, the company
was known as the Reilly Tar and Chemical Corporation (McDonald 1979:78; Remediation
-------~T-ec_h_n_o-lo_gi_·-es-,~l-nc_o_rp-or_a_te_d_1=99=6~:=3-.1-)-. ~L-ak-e~w=-as_h_in_g_t_o_n_w_as_l_o_w_e-re-d~j-u-st_a_·=fe_w_m_o_n_th_s_a_ft_e_r ____ _
Reilly purchased his parcel when the Lake Washington Ship Canal and the Hiram Chittenden
Locks were constructed in the sununer of 1916. The project was initiated to provide improved
navigation to Puget Sound, to help control flooding, and to provide moorage for Naval ships
(Ballard News Tribune 1988:88; Chrzastowski 1983:7). Lowering Lake Washington's water
level expanded Reilly's holdings to over 29 acres (Kroll Map Company 1926). The Quendall
area received its name from a mistaken creosote order from England addressed to a plant at
Port Quendall and a variation of the name is still used on modern maps and by current owners
(McDonald 1979:78). The Reilly Tar Company used the tar by-products generated by the
Lake Union Gas Works to produce creosote and other refined products (McDonald 1979:78;
Remediation Technologies, Incorporated 1996:3.2). The plant was operational from 1917 to
1969.
Another parcel of the Colman property, which was eventually owned by the Baxter Company,
was sold in approximately 1914 for establishment of a shingle production facility (Remediation
Technologies, Incorporated 1996:4. 1). The property was owned by Sound Timber Company
in 1926 which owned and operated the shingle mill (Kroll Map Company 1926). The shingle
mill was just outside the project area and was demolished between 1936 and 1946
(Remediation Technologies, Incorporated 1996:4.1). The remaining property was owned by
13

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
Peter Reilly and two other individuals, a Mr. Falk and Emil Gaupholm, who built residences
on the property, according to Remediation Technologies, Incorporated (1996:2. 1). The
property was owned by J. B. Polk in.1936 (Metsker 1936) but was sold to Mr. Rydeen by
1940 (Kroll Map Company 1940). The property may l1ave changed hands many times over
the years or county ·atlases were not frequently or reliably updated resulting in the
contradictions between thle records and coumy atlases. The property was finally leased to the
Baxter Company in 1955 which established a wood treatment facility where logs were
debarked and treated for use for telephone poles and pilings (McDonald 1979:78; Remediation
Technologies, Incorporated 1996:4.2). A few years later the Baxter Company purchased the
property. The majority of facility operations has recently been transferred to another site in
Arlington, Washington.
The last parcel of the Colman property within the proposed JAG Development project area
was held by the Colman family through 1940. From 1926 to 1936 the land was owned by
James Colman, possibly one of J. Madison Colman's descendants, or the name is a reflection
of the persistence of the deceased Colman's name in land records (Kroll Map Company 1926).
In 1940, the land was owned by George Lathrop Coleman (sic), a son of J. Madison Colman
(Fawcett 1979). The land was sold by the Colmans to the B.arbee Marine Yards in 1943, a
company that built ships for the military during World War II (Remediation Technologies,
Incorporated 1996:2.2). A sawmill was built on-site to process wood for shipbuilding. After
the war ended, the Barbee Mill abandoned shipbuilding and concentrated on sawmill
operations.· The Barbee Mill is in operation today.
Most of the remaining lands around the project area were sold by the Colmans to C. D.
Hillman, a real estate developer who established the Garden of Eden tracts in the early 1900s.
The Garden of Eden tracts were the stimulus for the development of Kennydale, named for
Hillman's brother-in-law and best salesperson (Kroll Map Company 1926; McDonald·
1979:78; Slauson 1976:180-181). Hillman's development attracted several families which
established homes and small farms. Many others were employed in logging local timber that
was transported to Lake Washington on the May Creek Lumber Company's log railroad along
May Creek (Slauson 1976:180-181). The first road along the lake shore was built in 1918 and
is now known as Lake Washington Boulevard (Slauson 1976: 181). Interstate 405 was
completed in the early 1960s as part of the expanding interstate highway network.
Historic archaeological resources which may be expected in the JAG Development project area
would be associated with early residential and industrial development. Types of resources
would be structural remnants of early creosote refinery-structures and equipment, remains of
the first Northern Pacific Railway tracks, evidence of the May Creek Lumber Company's
logging railroad, and/or other early sawmill activity. Indications of these occupations would
be railroad timbers and trackage, historic refuse, machinery parts and components, and
roadbeds. Evidence of early residential development would be indicated by house foundations,
root cellars, structural remnants, and historic artifact assemblages .

FIELD RECONNAISSANCE
FIELD METHODS
The proposed JAG Development properties are currently developed as the Barbee Mill, Port
Quendall Log Yard, the Baxter Property, and the Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property. The
Baxter Property is divided into two parcels; one of the parcels contains two areas. The North
Baxter Property includes the northern end of the Baxter Property and a small wedge of
property east of Ripley Lane (Hazelwood Lane) and west of Interstate 405 called the North
Baxter Property East Wedge (Figure 2). The South Baxter Property contains the area where
the Baxter Wood Treating facility was located (Figure 2). These properties were historically
occupied and recently modified to such an extent that few surfaces or exposures of native soil
were available throughout the proposed JAG Development site for field investigation. The
Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property and the Barbee Mill Properties are paved with asphalt and
subsurface investigation was only possible at the extreme margins of the properties. The
Baxter Property is currently undeveloped but the southern portion of the property was a wood
treating plant between 1955 and the early 1960s (Remediation Technologies, Incorporated
1996:4-2). Contamination of the soil on the South Baxter Property from creosote forbade
subsurface archaeological investigation (Mike Paulson, personal communication 1997).
Creosote and other chemicals were manufactured on the Port Quendall Property between the
late 1910s and late 1960s and could not be shovel-probed due to contamination of the soil
(Remediation Technologies, Incorporated 1996:3-5: Mike Paulson, personal communication
1997). The North Baxter Property and the North Baxter Property East Wedge were the only
large parcels that were available for subsurface investigation.
The field reconnaissance was conducted by LAAS archaeologist Bradley Bowden on March 4,
5, and 7, 1997. Joe Gibbons and Mike Paulson of Remediation Technologies, Incorporated,
monitored Bradley Bowden's movements throughout the project area to insure that no
potentially hazardous materials were encountered during the field reconnaissance. Joe
Gibbons monitored fieldwork on March 4, between 8:30 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. and on March
5, between 8:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., and Mike Paulson monitored fieldwork on March 4,
between 10:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. and on March 7, between 8:30 a.m. and 2:30_ p.m. Shovel
probes were placed in areas of the proposed JAG Development parcels that appeared to exhibit
minimal disturbance based on historic maps and information relating to the previous and
current use of the properties. Reconnaissance was focused primarily on the eastern portion of
the JAG Development project area because most of the western portion of the properties was
under water prior to the construction of the Lake Washington Ship Canal and becanse no soil
contamination was in these areas.
Shovel probes were approximately 35 centimeters in diameter and were an average of 80
centimeters deep. Two shovel probes were excavated to depths below one meter and two
shovel probes were terminated between 20 and 30 centimeters below the surface because large
cobbles related to fill episodes were encountered. The shoveled portion of the probes was
15

'
JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
terminated at approximately 65 centimeters below the surface and a five and one quarter-inch
(13 centimeter) diameter auger was used to complete the probe. All sediments excavated in
the shovel probes were passed through 1/4" and 1/8" screen. Field notes, photograph
records, and photographs are stored in LAAS project files.
FJELD RESULTS
One cobble-sized, possibly fire modified rock (FMR), was identified in Shovel Probe #9 on
the Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property (Figure 2). This rock was recovered in pebble-sized
stream deposits and may have been broken naturally. The possible FMR was recovered from
soils buried 90 to 100 centimeters below the.surface. No other cultural materials were
identified in Shovel Probe #9. Shovel Probe #12, at the southeast corner of the Port Quendall
Log Yard, contained small charcoal deposits within the soil at a depth of 90 to 100 centimeters
that may have been related to human activities in the area. No other cultural materials or
archaeological sites were identified during the field reconnaissance.
Fill was encountered in all but two of the shovel probes and was between 30 and 90
centimeters in depth. The most shallow fill episodes were noted in the eastern portion of the
North Baxter Property near the railroad tracks. The deepest fill episode was in the
southeastern portion of the Port Quendall Log Yard, near the old channel of May Creek. Four
of the 12 shovel probes were terminated because the fill was impenetrable.
Approximately 10 percent of the proposed JAG Development Project area was shovel-probed
for buried archaeological deposits. The remaining 90 percent of the project area was not field
assessed because access to buried deposits was not possible. The Barbee Mill and the Pan
Abode Cedar Homes Properties were mostly paved with asphalt or contained existing
strucmres. Three shovel probes were successfully excavated in these areas, comprising 27
acres of the 60-acre JAG Development Project area. The Port Quendall Log Yard and the
South Baxter Property were identified as having hazardous and dangerous materials on and
below ground surface by Remediation Technologies, Incorporated (Mark Larsen, personal
communication 1997). Access to the majority of these properties was not possible due to
contamination of soils below the surface. One shovel probe was excavated at the extreme
southeast corner of the Port Quendall Log Yard within one meter of a Remediation
Technologies, Incorporated, soil probe that was free of contaminants (Mike Paulson, personal
communication 1997). The Port Quendail Log Yard Property and the South Baxter Property
comprise 20 acres of the 60-acre JAG Development project area. The North Baxter Property
is divided into two parcels; the larger is adjacent to the South Baxter Property and is 19 acres
in area. Three of four shovel probes in this parcel encountered impenetrable fill and were
terminated before native soils could be observed. The smaller North Baxter Property is the
North Baxter Property East Wedge, a one-acre wedge-shaped parcel east of Ripley
(Hazelwood) Lane _and west of Interstate 405 (Figure 2). Three shovel probes were excavated
in this area and native soils were encountered in all three shovel probes.

JAG Development Cultural Resource Assessment
Soils that appeared to be native and undisrurbed ranged from sand to loam and contained
abundant waterwom pebbles and cobbles. The soil identified in shovel probes in the eastern
portion of the project area tended to be a mixture of sandy loam and sandy silts and contained
moderate amoums of pebbles and small cobbles. These soils appeared to be remnant alluvial
deposits from flooding and movement of May Creek. Soils in the western portion of the
proposed JAG Development project area tended to be fine to coarse sands with abundant
waterworn pebbles and cobbles. These deposits were suggestive of beach deposits associated
with the changing shoreline of Lake Washington.
CONCLUSIONS A.ND RECOMMENDATIONS
No cultural resources eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places were
identified in the proposed JAG Development project area during archival review or field
reconnaissance. Literature review indicated that the mouth of May Creek was in the Port
Quendall Log Yard portion of the proposed JAG Development Project area prior to modern
channelization. Waterman (ca. 1920) identified the Duwamish site Sbal't" at this location, a
village with two winter houses known as a good place for fishing and drying redfish (sockeye
or kokanee salmon). The village was recorded by two anthropologists shortly after the turn of
the century and was occupied at least until the Treaty of Point Elliot was signed in 1855. No
Duwamish ·village occupations or any type of archaeological sites have been recorded on Lake
Washington. Environmental factors and the location of archaeological sites south of Lake
Washington on the old Black River channel suggest that archaeological remains are probably
extant under fill and or pavement associated with the proposed JAG Development. However,
field reconnaissance of the proposed JAG Development proiect area was [1m1ted by modern
and historic changes to the area, including fill episodes, asphalt and concrete paving, and
potentially hazardous materials on and below the ground surface. Lake fluctuations from
earthquakes and historic modifications have alternately submerged and uplifted the Lake
Washington shoreline, burying and/ or eroding hunter-fisher-gatherer deposits over time. In
addition, the mouth of May Creek has moved across the landscape leaving alluvial deposits or
scouring earlier surfaces. Predicting the location of high probability areas for cultural
resources becomes a challenge. Nevertheless, it is entirely likely that archaeological remains
are extant on the proposed JAG Development project area.
MONITORING
Monitoring for archaeological materials is recommended in all future subsurface activities in
high probability areas within the proposed JAG Development project area. Monitoring should
be included in any future activities relating to the cleanup of the potentially hazardous
materials in high probability areas of the project area as well as during any construction
activities related to the proposed JAG Development. High probabilit,'. areas are those that are
most likely to contain archaeological deposits (Figure 4). A professional archaeologist should
be on-site to monitor any subsurface activities to insure that no intact archaeological materials

or features are adversely affected during such activities. If any archaeological materials or
features are identified during monitoring of subsurface activities, the activity should be halted
immediately in areas large enough to maintain the integrity of the remains to allow the
archaeologist to determine the integrity and significance of the materials and/ or features. If the
archaeologist determines that a probably significant archaeological site is present, a testing
strategy for evaluation should be developed through consultation with the Washington State
Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation and the Muckleshoot Tribe. If human
remains are identified during subsurface activities, construction must halt in an area large
enough to maintain integrity of the remains and the Washington State Office of Archaeology
and Historic Preservation and the Muckleshoot Tribe contacted immediately.
HIGH PROBABILITY AREAS
Areas that are most likely to contain archaeological deposits within the JAG Development
project area are those that border old channels of May Creek, areas that border the trail shown
on the U.S. Surveyor General map from 1864, areas adjacent to the 1864 shoreline and areas
near tb.e current shoreline in the May Creek mouth vicinity that may have been exposed and
inundated repeatedly over time because of water level fluctuations. High probability areas in
the JAG Development project area include all of the Port Quendall Log Yard, a portion of the
South Baxter Property, the central portion of the North Baxter Property, and northern portions
of the Pan Abode Cedar Homes and Barbee Mill Properties (Figure 4). The Port Quendall
Log Yard contains the old channel of May Creek visible on the 1864 GLO map and the 1920
DNR map (United States Army Corps of Engineers 1920; United States Surveyor General
1864). It also contains the end of the historic trail shown on the 1864 GLO map. The 1920
DNR map shows a marsh in the eastern portion of the Port Quendall Log Yard where the
mouth ofMay Creek formed a delta (Figure 3). l'hls area was undoubtedly used by the
inhabitants of the Duwamish village Sbal't" to gather plants such as wapato and to fish. The
South Baxter Property borders the Port Quendall Log Yard on the north and was probably also
occupied by hunter-fisher-gatherers. The 1920 DNR map of the project area shows two small
promontories that were probably formed when stream-born alluvial deposits entered the lake
(Figure 3). The early historic period shoreline shown in the 1864 United States Surveyor
General Map traverses the North Baxter Property and may have been used by hunter-fisher-
gatherers after 1,100 years ago. Non-village, lacustrine sites may be adjacent to the shoreline.
It is likely that an old channel of May Creek was in the southern portion of the South Baxter
Property and. that native inhabitants of the JAG Development project area used the area for
fishing and gathering. The northern portion of the Barbee Mill also borders the Port Quendall
Log Yard and may contain archaeological resources related to the activities mentioned
previously. The northern portion of the Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property contains old
channels of May Creek that were several meters east of fluctuating lake shorelines. The
property was probably not subject to inundation and may have been occupied when lake levels
were high and the Port Quendall Log Yard was under water. The historic trail shown on the
1864 GLO map intersected with May Creek in the northern portion of the Pan Abode Cedar
Homes Property which suggests that an archaeological site may be in the immediate vicinity.

Low PROBABILITY AREAS
The North Baxter Property and the North Baxter Property East Wedge were successfully
shovel probed below fill and contained no archaeological deposits, however, areas near the
early historic period shoreline may have undiscovered cultural deposits. Likewise, the
southern portion of the Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property was successfully shovel probed and
contained no archaeological deposits. These areas may have been slightly outside the use area
of the inhabitants of the Duwamish village Sbal't". The North Baxter Property East Wedge,
portions of the North Baxter Property away from the early historic period shoreline, and the
southern portion of the Pan Abode Cedar Homes Property are considered to have a low
probability of containing archaeological deposits. Shovel probes were attempted in the
southern portion of the Barbee Mill but were completely inundated with ground water and
appeared to contain several feet of fill. This portion of the project area may have been under
water prior to historic use of the JAG Development project area and is considered to be a low
probability area as well. The current shoreline of the JAG Development project area is fill
material that was placed from 100 to 1,000 feet west of the 1864 shoreline (Figure 3).
Contemporary offshore bathymetry with water depth in two meter contours (Figures I and 3)
shows a broad submarine platform west of the project area to a depth of 10 meters below the
low water elevation of Lake Washington. This is probably the submarine portion of the May
Creek delta. Higher elevations of this offshore platform may have been exposed during low
stands of Lake Washington during the past 1,100 years, but were probably not available for
hunter-fisher-gatherer use before then, when the landform was probably uplifted during an
earthquake. The current shoreline is therefore considered low probability in all areas of the
JAG Development project area. In areas that are considered to be high probability and have
shoreline portions, e.g. the Port Quendall Log Yard, the South Baxter Property, and the
northem portion of the Barbee Mill Property, a 100 foot (approximately 30 meter) area from
the shoreline east should be considered to be low probability.

Dear Ms. Cross:
CNA Architecture Group, Incorporated, has retained Larson Anthropological/Archaeological
Services to conduct a culrural resource assessment for a Planned Action Environmental Impact
Statement for JAG Development's proposed redevelopment of the Quendall Terminal Site. The
project area is a 69 acre site on the southeasrnm shoreline of Lake Washington at May Creek, a
quarter mile north of Kennydale, Washington (Figure 1). JAG Development has preliminarily
proposed development of office buildings, residential housing, a. hotel/conference center, a marina,
· and restaurant space on the property to be phased over a 10-15 year period.
LAAS' cultural resource assessment includes identification of archaeological sites and potential
traditional cultural use areas within the boundaries of the JAG Develoi:,ment. A field survey will be
conducted on the 69 acre parcel to determine the existence or probability for significant cultural
resources. LAAS is currently gathering existing archaeological, historic, ethnographic, and
ethnohistoric data from the State Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, University of
Washingcon Libraries, and pertinent local King County repositories. However, we believe mat the
Muckleshoot Tribe may have information gathered from elders and/or the Tribe may currently use
areas for traditional cultural activities.
We encourage a cultural representative from the Muckleshoot Tribe to contact LAAS if the Tribe
has information that might be useful in the assessment. We understand that traditional cultural use
areas are private, but LAAS welcomes the opportunity to work with the Tribe regarding
incorporation of this type of information in a secure and respectful manner. Please phone Lynn
Larson or Leonard Forsman at LAAS at your earliest convenience if you would like to discuss the
matter further. Otherwise, Leonard Forsman will phone your cultural representative within a week
of your receipt of this letter.

1. Project Overview
This Technical Information Report (TIR) addresses the conceptual design of the storm drainage
conveyance and water quality facilities for Quendall Terminals Master Site Plan entitlement. Site
drainage will be conveyed to on-site water quality treatment facilities prior to discharge to Lake
Washington. See Figure 6A (Appendix A) for the TIR Worksheet.
PROJECT LOCATION
The Quendall Terminals project is located at 4350 Lake Washington Boulevard North within the City of
Renton in King County, Washington. The project is located west of Ripley Lane North and northwest of
the intersection of Lake Washington Boulevard North and Ripley Lane North. The project is located in
a portion of Section 29, Township 24 N, Range 5 E, W.M. See Figure 1A in Appendix A for the project
location.
An additional parcel located east of the main project site across Ripley Lane North is included in
project planning considerations but is not part of this drainage report. No improvements are planned
for this additional parcel.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Quendall Terminals is a proposed mixed-use development including five stories of residential or office
space above two levels of above-grade parking or retail and restaurant space. The development
project anticipates entitlement of the following:
• Residential 800 Units
• Office 245,000 Square Feet
• Retail 21,600 Square Feet
• Restaurant 9,000 Square Feet
• Parking 2,215 Spaces
PREDEVELOPED SITE CONDITIONS
The existing site is vacant and is under the direction of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The site is partially vegetated with areas of grass, shrubs, brush, and trees where the site has been
undisturbed for an extended amount of time. Other areas used more recently contain bare soil and
debris from log yard operations. Debris piles from log yard operations are located on the site. The site
is contaminated with hazardous substances as a result of past industrial uses, including a creosote
processing facility.
1
2
The main site is approximately 20.3 acres in size with approximately 1,583 feet of shoreline along
Lake Washington. Site slopes are generally Oto 5 percent with localized slopes up to 2H:1V at debris
piles and up to 1H:1V at the bank of the lake. The site slopes gradually from east to west. Wetlands
are located along and near the lakeshore on the west side of the site. There are approximately
34,959 square feet of existing wetlands on the site.
The parcel east of the main project site and Ripley Lane North is approximately 1.2 acres in size and is
not part of this drainage report. No improvements are planned for the east parcel.
Man made stormwater conveyance, water quality, and detention facilities on the site consist of swales
and berms constructed in accordance with the Quendall Terminals Interim Stormwater Management
Plan (Aspect, October 2008) in conjunction with a previously existing small sediment pond
(approximately 1,722 square feet including rock check dams). The purpose of the Interim Stormwater
Management Plan is to control site runoff and erosion prior to future environmental mitigation.
Surface runoff currently infiltrates or is conveyed to Lake Washington via surface flow or swales. There
are no creeks or streams located on the site. See Figure 2A in Appendix A for existing conditions.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soils Map indicates that the site is underlain with
Norma sandy loam and Bellingham silty loam. See Figure 4A in Appendix A. The site does not lie
within a 100-year floodplain per Federal Emergency Management Act (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate
Map. See Figure 5A in Appendix A.
DEVELOPED SITE CONDITIONS
The proposed site improvements include a mixed-use development consisting of residential, office,
retail, restaurant, and parking spaces. Proposed site slopes are anticipated to be 3:1
(horizontal:vertical) or less. Piped storm drainage systems will collect and convey surface runoff from
pollution-generating surfaces to water quality treatment facilities then to outfalls at Lake Washington.
Treated stormwater will discharge to Lake Washington during normal flows. During high flows that
exceed the capacity of the water quality treatment facilities, stormwater will bypass the water quality
facilities, discharging directly to the lake.
To the greatest extent possible, roof drainage will be conveyed directly to Lake Washington, bypassing
water quality treatment facilities, via dedicated storm drainage systems for non-pollution-generating
surfaces.
Surface water collection, conveyance, and treatment will be maintained separately from any
groundwater activity.
Prior to this development, a site remediation/mitigation plan will be executed under the direction of
the EPA to prevent the exposure and spread of hazardous substances to humans and the surrounding
environment. Proposed measures to prevent environmental health hazards include minimal
disturbance to contaminated soils and capping of the site.

Core and Special Requirements not addressed below are discussed in other sections of this report.
Table 2-1 provides a summary of the requirements and where they are addressed within this report.
Core Requirement No. 1: Discharge at the Natural Location
Stormwater runoff from the existing site either infiltrates or is conveyed to Lake Washington via surface
flow or swales. Stormwater runoff from the proposed improvements will be collected and conveyed by
a piped stormwater system to new outfalls at Lake Washington. Runoff from the existing and proposed
sites both discharge to Lake Washington. See the "Existing Site Conditions" and "Proposed Site
Conditions" exhibits in Figures 2A and 3A, Appendix A.
Special Requirement No. 1: Dther Adopted Area-Specific Requirements
Does not apply. The proposed project is not in a Critical Drainage Area or in an area included in an
adopted master drainage plan, basin plan. salmon conservation plan, stormwater compliance plan,
flood hazard reduction plan, lake management plan, or shared facility drainage plan.
Special Requirement No. 2: Flood Hazard Area Delineation
Does not apply. The proposed project does not contain and is not adjacent to a flood hazard area.
Special Requirement No. 3: Flood Protection Facllltles
Does not apply. The proposed project does not rely on existing flood protection facilities or construct a
new flood protection facility.
Special Requirement No. 4: Source Control
The proposed project will require a commercial building and commercial site development permit;
therefore, water quality source controls will be implemented in accordance with the King County
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual.
Special Requirement No. 5: OIi Control
Does not apply. None of the proposed land uses generate average daily traffic of 100 or more vehicles
per 1,000 square feet of gross building area.
3. Off-Site Analysis
A Level 1 qualitative off-site analysis is required per Core Requirement No. 2. The off-site analysis
assesses potential off-site drainage and water quality impacts associated with development of the
project site, and proposes appropriate mitigation of the impacts, if necessary.
UPSTREAM ANALYSIS
There is no upstream tributary area contributing to site stormwater runoff.

Quendall Terminals
' -p i • ., , I 4.
I' ' .. :;;:$ •
l ~ ~ '
-j • .. ..... "' t
CenturyPaclflc, LP
Quendall Terminals
DOWNSTREAM ANALYSIS
Runoff from the proposed site will be collected and conveyed via a piped storm drainage system and
discharge to Lake Washington. The water level in Lake Washington is maintained at the Hiram M.
Chittenden Locks. Outfalls at the lake will require armoring to prevent erosion.
4. Flow Control and Water Quality
Facility Analysis and Design
FLOW CONTROL
The project is exempt from flow control requirements by the "direct discharge exemption" as defined in
Section 1.2.3.1 of the 2009 KCSWDM. The project will feature a piped conveyance system of
adequate capacity that discharges directly to Lake Washington.
WATER QUALITY
Runoff from pollution-generating surfaces will be collected and conveyed to water quality treatment
facilities for treatment prior to discharge to Lake Washington. A water quality design flow of 60
percent of the developed 2-year peak flow rate will be used in accordance with the 2009 KCSWDM.
The water quality treatment facilities will discharge to Lake Washington. Flows greater than the water
quality design flow rate will bypass the water quality facilities and discharge directly to Lake
Washington. See Figure 48 for water quality calculations, Figure 18 for the water quality facility layout,
and Figure 58 for Storm Filter product information, Appendix 8.
5. Conveyance System Analysis and
Design
The proposed conveyance system will be designed to convey and contain (at minimum) the 25-year
peak flow, assuming developed conditions for on-site tributary areas. Potential overflow from a 100-
year runoff event is not anticipated to create or aggravate a severe flooding problem or severe erosion
problem. There is no upstream tributary area draining to the site or the proposed storm drainage
system. Outfalls at the discharge points of the stormwater systems will be designed to prevent
erosion.
5
6
The conveyance system design is based on the following assumptions:
• The peak flows used to design the conveyance system were calculated using the Rational Method.
• Runoff coefficients ("C" values) for the Rational Method are based on Table 3.2.1.A in the
KCSWDM:
• C=0.90 for impervious surfaces, roofs, and paving.
• C=0.25 for pervious surfaces and lawns.
• The minimum time of concentration is assumed to be 6.3 minutes.
• Drainage areas are based on the current site plan and grading plan.
• Manning's roughness coefficients are based on Table 4.2.1.D in the KCSWDM for PVC pipe.
A coefficient of 0.013 is used in the uniform flow analysis.
• A hydrologic analysis is performed for the 25-year storm event. A precipitation amount of
3.43 inches was used based on Figure 3.1.2.C of the KCSWDM.
• Twenty-five-year uniform flow calculations were performed in order to calculate design flows and to
choose preliminary pipe sizes.
• The minimum full flow pipe velocity is 3 feet per second, per KCSWDM Figure 4.2.1.F.
This report will be amended in conjunction with future construction documents to include backwater
calculations for final storm drain design.
6. Special Reports and Studies

1 INTRODUCTION
Under the direction of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the
Quendall Terminals owners (Altino Properties, Inc., and J.H. Baxter & Company; the
Respondents) are conducting a Remedial Investigation (RI) and Feasibility Study (FS) at the
Quendall Terminals Site (Site) in Renton, Washington. The work is being conducted under
an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent, as amended (AOC). This
draft RI Report describes detailed investigations conducted in 2008 and 2009 at the Site as
described in the EPA-approved Data Collecdon Work Plan (Work Plan; Anchor QEA and
Aspect 2009a), along with the results of these investigations and associated risk assessments,
and was prepared by Anchor QEA, LLC (Anchor QEA) and Aspect Consulting LLC (Aspect)
under the direction of EPA and the Respondents.
The purpose of the RI is to collect, develop, and evaluate sufficient information to determine
if cleanup actions at the Site are necessary. Because the Site includes uplands areas and
aquatic lands, the media investigated included soil, groundwater, and sediment. In addition
to the 2008 and 2009 investigations conducted under EPA oversight, the scope and results of
previous environmental investigations performed at the Site under the oversight of the
Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) are also described in this report to
provide a comprehensive summary of Site conditions.
The Site is a 23-acre property located on the southeast shore of Lake Washington (Figure 1.1-
1 ). Shortly after the lowering of Lake Washington in 1916 to construct the Lake Washington
Ship Canal, the Site, including newly exposed portions of the former May Creek delta, was
developed into a creosote manufacturing facility. Until 1969, creosote was manufactured on
the Site by refining and processing coal tar and oil-gas tar residues. From 1969 to
approximately 1977, some of the aboveground tanks at the Site were used intermittently for
crude oil, waste oil, and diesel storage. From 1977 to 2008, the Site was used primarily for
log sorting and storage. The Site is currently vacant. Aquatic lands adjacent to the facility
managed by the Washington Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) were historically
leased for log rafting and vessel storage, but those leases were terminated in the 1990s.

Introduction
The physical and chemical characteristics of the Quendall Site (i.e., within the property
boundary) have been explored through more than 150 soil/sediment borings and test pits
excavated for environmental and geotechnical investigations over the past 30 years. The
considerable characterization data available for the Quendall Site (e.g., Hart Crowser 1997;
Retec 1997c; Exponent 1999; Anchor and Aspect 2004) were previously collected and
incorporated into an earlier RI/FS process overseen by Ecology under the Washington State
Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) and its implementing regulations (Chapter 173-340
Washington Administrative Code [WAC]; Chapter 70.105D Revised Code of Washington
[RCW]). These earlier investigations revealed that polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons
(P AHs) and other organic chemicals such as benzene detected at the Qµendall Site are
present at concentrations that would likely trigger cleanup actions under MTCA.
Site investigations identified creosote-related contamination in soil, groundwater, and
sediment at the Site. Previous investigation activities and results have been summarized in
three RI/FS documents previously prepared for EPA under the AOC; summaries of these
documents are included in this draft RI Report:
Task 2-Suromary of Existing IDformation and Data Qµality Report (Anchor and Aspect
2007a). The Draft Task 2 Report includes a summary of background information, a
description of previous environmental investigations and studies, and a summary and data
quality evaluation of previously collected data.
Task 3 -Preliminary Conceptwll Site Model (CSM), Remedial Action Objectives,
Remediation Goals, and Data Gaps(Anchor and Aspect 2007b). The Draft Task 3 Report
describes the preliminary Conceptual Site Model (CSM), including history, physical setting,
and the nature and extent of contamination at the Site. Consistent with EPA's September 19,
2008 follow-on comments on the Task 3 Report, updates to the CSM were provided in the
Task 5 Wark Plan and this draft RI Report.
Task 5-Final Data Collection Won: Plan (Anchor QEA and Aspect 2009a). Based on its
review of the existing data, EPA determined that additional data were necessary to complete
the RVFS for the Site. The Task 5 Work Plan describes implementation of work efforts to

fulfill information needs identified by EPA and fulfills the requirements of RI/FS Task 5 as
described in the AOC.
1.1 Purpose
The purpose ofthis draft RI Report is to compile, develop, and evaluate the comprehensive
sampling and analysis to characterize the nature and extent and chemical fate and transport
of hazardous substance contamination at the Site. At EP A's direction, CSMs and baseline
ecological and human health risk assessments have been integrated into this draft RI Report
to provide a comprehensive evaluation of Site conditions. A forthcoming FS report will be
prepared to document the development and detailed analysis of remedial alternatives and to
provide a basis for remedy selection by EPA.
1.2 Site Description
The Quendall Site is located on Lake Washington in the northernmost limits of the City of
Renton (Figure 1.1-1). The property is relatively flat and occupies the middle portion of a
roughly 70-acre alluvial plain. The Site borders approximately 1,500 feet of Lake
Washington shoreline. Access to the Site is from Lake Washington Boulevard, located along
the eastern boundary of the property. Shoreline properties that are immediately adjacent to
the Site include Conner Homes to the south (former Barbee Mill property) and Port
Quendall Company/Football Northwest to the north (former J.H. Baxter property).
Interstate 405 is located approximately 500 feet to the east. Existing Site features and
surrounding features are illustrated on Figure 2.1-1.
Previous Site activities including operation of log sorting yards have resulted in accumulation
of wood chips and bark materials on the central and eastern portions of the property. The
exposed Site soils are relatively fine-grained, which slows infiltration during rainy periods
causing ponding in many areas. Site drainage is discussed in Section 2.2.1.

2 SITE HISTORY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DATA
2.1 Site History
This section provides a discussion of historical site operational activities. Locations of
historical Site features are presented on Figure 2.2-1. A time line of Site operations is
provided in Figure 2.2-2. The principal data sources for this historical summary include:
• 1958 Republic Creosoting Company "Seattle Plant Map" with revisions through 1962
( 1958 Plant Map)
• Blueprints of the Reilly Plant, Circa 1918 (1918 Plant Map)
• Aerial photography from 1936, 1946, 1956, 1968, and 1976
• Interviews with Walter (Ward) Roberts, a former employee of the Republic
Creosoting Company/Reilly Tar Company during the 1950s and 1960s
• Interviews with Don Norman, a former Site manager for Quendall Terminals in the
1970s
• Historical Site photographs
• Historical records including government agency inspection reports, property tax
records, leases, deeds, and historical Sanborn maps
• Previous environmental reports prepared for the Quendall Site
2.1.1 Site Ownership and Easements
Jeremiah Sullivan acquired the property from the United States Government in 1873 for use
as a homestead. It was subsequently conveyed to James Colman in 1875. During Colman's
ownership, he sold timber on the land (starting in 1902) and in 1903, conveyed a right-of
way to Burlington Northern. Colman sold the property to Peter Reilly in 1916.
The Reilly family began Republic Creosoting in 1917, shortly after Lake Washington levels
were lowered by construction of the Ship Canal/Montlake Cut. The Quendall Site was
subsequently used for creosote manufacturing activities for more than 50 years until 1969.
Creosote manufacturing and related historical Site features are discussed in more detail in the
next sections. In addition to the creosote manufacturing facilities, the company built family
housing, bachelor quarters, and a barn for the plant's horses sometime in the 1920s. These
housing quarters were located in the area that is now the Interstate-405, Exit 7 interchange.

Site History and Environmental Data
Prior to connection to municipal water supply, Roberts reported that water for company
housing was supplied by approximately four to five shallow wells less than 30 feet deep
located northeast of the still house on the west side of the railroad tracks. However, the 1918
Plant Map shows two wells, 50 and 75 feet deep, located just south of the still house that
appear connected to the company housing water supply. Drinlcing water for the plant was
supplied by a 180-foot deep artesian well located just west of the office (Ecology 1989). The
artesian well was located during September 2009 RI field work (see Figure 2.1-1). The other
wells have not been located. King County tax assessor records indicate that by 1939,
company housing and the plant site were connected to city water.
Quendall Terminals purchased the Site in 1971. Between 1969 and 1983, Quendall
Terminals leased aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) that remained on the Site from the
creosote manufacturing operations for the storage of Bunker C oil, waste oil, diesel, and lard.
From 1975 to 2009, the Quendall Site was used as a log sorting and storage yard.
A City of Renton utility easement for a sanitary sewer line is located just inside the eastern
property boundary. A second City of Renton utility easement for a water line is located near
the existing office. Puget Sound Energy (formerly Puget Power and Light) has an easement
along the north property line for a pole line and for underwater cables, which connect
electrical services to Mercer Island underneath Lake Washington. King County (Metro) also
has a utility easement along the northern property boundary for the South Mercer Force
Main. According to plans from King County, the sewer main is located just north of the
property boundary. Easement locations are shown on Figure 2.1-1.
2.1.2 Tar Refining and Distillate Manufacturing Activities
Reilly Tar & Chemical Company, formerly Republic Creosoting, operated on the Site from
1916 until 1969. The company distilled coal and oil-gas tar residues (collectively referred to
as coal tar) from coal gasification plants into several fractions that were shipped off site for a
variety of uses. The light distillate fraction was typically used as feedstock in chemical
manufacturing. The middle distillate fraction, creosote, was used in the wood preserving
industry. The bottom fraction, pitch, was used for applications such as roofing tar (Hart
Crowser 1994). Historical site features that were part of the manufacturing process are based

Site History and Environmental Data
on historical aerial photographs and former plant maps (Reilly 1918; Republic Creosoting
1969) and illustrated on Figure 2.2-1.
The facility typically refined and processed coal tar from local sources such as Seattle (e.g.,
Lake Union Gas Works), Bellingham, and Tacoma. At the height of productivity, the facility
reportedly processed about 500,000 gallons of tar per month (CH2M Hill 1983). The typical
chemical compositions of coal tar and creosote are summarized in Table 2.1-1. The
composition of coal tar and creosote varies with the source, but in general, creosote consists
of approximately 85 percent P AHs, 10 percent phenolic compounds, and 5 percent
heterocyclic hydrocarbons (EPA 1995). Coal tar has a similar composition but also includes
up to 5 percent light aromatic (e.g., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene [BTEX])
compounds (Cohen and Mercer 1993). Tars used at the Site were generally oil-gas tars that
contained a relatively low fraction of light aromatics, except for tars imported from the
Honolulu Gas Company from 1957 to 1965, which contained a higher proportion of light
aromatics (Hart Crowser 1994). Pitch has a similar composition to creosote (no light
aromatics) but contains more higher-weight PAHs.
Tar feedstock was typically shipped to the Site and offloaded from tankers and barges along
the T -Dock and the short pier offshore of the upland operation areas. Tax assessor records
indicate that a 6-inch pipeline conveyed product from the T-Dock to two 2 million gallon-
tanks (Tanks 23 and 26 on Figure 2.2-1). In 2005, during the installation of stormwater
controls overseen by Aspect Consulting, a section of 6-inch pipe with tar residue on the
inside of the pipe was unearthed just upland of the T-Dock area.
The large tar feedstock storage tanks contained heating elements that maintained product
viscosity to facilitate product transfer from the tanks to the still house. Aboveground
pipelines were used to convey the tar feedstock to the still house where it was distilled into
the different product fractions (light distillates, creosote, and pitch) (Ecology 1989). Heat for
distillation was provided by steam from the boiler house, located just west of the still house.
According to Roberts (Hart Crowser 1994), the boilers were reportedly oil-fired. An
historical photograph also shows a heating oil barge moored to the Oil Dock.

Site History and Environmental Data
Light distillates and creosote were stored in aboveground tanks prior to shipment.
Aboveground tanks were installed west and south of the still house for use in the creosote
manufacturing operations, and each tank was assigned a number in chronological order as it
was installed (Roberts undated). Figure 2.2-1 provides the location of and, when available,
the assigned number for tanks identified on Site maps (Republic Creosoting 1969) and
photographs. A summary of how these tanks were used during light distillate and creosote
manufacturing and subsequent site use is provided in the Aboveground Storage Tanks
Section 2.2.2.
Pitch was poured into the pitch bays located north of the still house where it was allowed to
solidify. Roberts described the pitch bays as having concrete bottoms with wood sides. The
bays were approximately 40 feet wide, 150 feet long, and 4 feet deep (Ecology 1989).
Products were shipped off site via rail, tanker truck, or ship. Rail loading racks were located
along the east side of the railroad tracks. The 1918 Plant Map shows product lines running
between the still house and the loading racks for transferring coal tar and creosote. The 1958
Plant Map also indicates a pipeline was present between the AS Ts west of the still house and
the property to the north of the Site (formerly occupied by J.H. Baxter, which operated a
wood treatment plant from 1955 until 1982). This pipeline was used to transport creosote,
which was used in the wood treatment process.
Wastes produced in the manufacturing process were disposed of on Site. When the stills
were cleaned, the waste pitch, also called Saturday Coke, was chiseled out of the stills ( on
Saturdays) and reportedly placed near the Site shoreline (Ecology 1989). Liquid waste from
the still house cooling lines was reportedly disposed of in the North and South Sumps. This
effluent stream reportedly sometimes contained creosote and tars (Ecology 1989).
Roberts indicated that the condensers sometimes leaked, allowing creosote to enter the
sanitary sewer (Ecology 1989). The sewer outfall discharged into the former May Creek
channel. The old bed of May Creek marked the southern boundary of improvements. A
fence line along the channel alignment is shown the 1958 Plant Map. Aerial photographs
from 1936 through 1968 indicate little to no activity occurred in the area immediately south
of the former May Creek channel.

Site History and Environmental Data
The Reilly facility closed permanently in 1969. Subsequently, the still house, boiler house,
and many of the storage tanks were demolished (E&E 1990).
Z.1.3 Later Site Uses
From 1971 to 1983, Qµendall Terminals leased the remaining Site ASTs to various companies
for storage of Bunker Coil, waste oil, diesel, and lard. Tanks 35 through 38 were the
principal tanks used during this period, mostly for storage of diesel and waste oils (E&E
1990). Roberts indicated that Tanks 23 and 26 (2 million-gallon capacity) were only used
once after Quendall Terminals purchased the property in 1971. These tanks were leased by
Willamette Industries for an 18-month period to store Bunker C crude oil. The Bunker C
crude oil was transported to the Site by truck. The remaining ASTs were demolished in 1983
(E&E 1990).
An Ecology memorandum dated June 2, 1971 indicates that no containment dikes were
present around the tanks until about 1971. An Ecology site inspection in 1972 noted
substantial oil and tar product residue in the area of the central tank farm.
Since the late 1970s, the Site has been used as a log saning and storage yard with most of this
activity occurring in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Wood chips and bark have been
scattered and mounded throughout the Quendall Site as a result of these operations.
2.2 Summary of Sources of Contamination
This section provides a discussion of potential primary source areas based on historical
operational activities and Qµendall Site land use. Products released to the subsurface may act
as ongoing secondary sources of contamination, which are discussed in Sections 4 and 5,
Nature and Extent of NAPL and Nature and Extent of Contaminated Site Media, respectively.
Tar refining was conducted at the Quendall Site for approximately 53 years from 1916
through 1969. Releases of tars and distillate products to the environment have occurred at
locations of the Qµendall Site where transport, production, storage, and/or disposal of the
products were performed. The release of waste products, including solids (e.g., still bottoms,
Draft Remedial Investigation
Quendall Tenninals RI/FS 9
March2010

Site History and Environmental Data
Saturday Coke, and pitch) and liquids (e.g., steam condensate and spills), has also impacted
site media quality. After the plant was closed in 1969, all structures except for six of the
AS Ts and the office were demolished. After the tar refining facility was demolished,
petroleum was stored at the Quendall Site using the remaining tanks for approximately 13
years, from 1969 to 1982. Reported spills during this period may also have impacted site
media quality. Primary sources of potential contaminant releases are described below.
2.2.1 Historical Structures
T-Dock: Tar feedstock was typically shipped to the Quendall Site and transferred to ASTs
through a transfer line located on the deck of the dock (Hart Crowser 1994). A relatively
large spill occurred sometime between 1930 and 1940 at the western end of the T-Dock.
Approximately 30,000 to 40,000 gallons oftar feedstock were reportedly released into Lake
Washington during barge offloading (Ecology 1989).
In 1946, the Washington State Pollution Control Commission noted that: "Upon reaching the
end of the intake pipes, a large drip pan was observed completely filled with heavy crude oil.
In fact, it was so full that it was overflowing ... The entire end of this dock was saturated with
oil ... " (WSPCC 1946).
Still House: The still house, where tar was refined to distillate products, reportedly did not
have an impervious floor. Historical information suggests that spills onto the soil floor of the
still house occurred (CH2M Hill 1983 and Ecology 1989).
Boiler House: Although there were no reported releases from the boiler house, the boilers
were fired by heating oil and likely required transfer and storage of this product. According
to Roberts, tar distillates were sometimes also used as boiler fuel (Hart Crowser 1994). The
boiler house was demolished when the plant closed in 1969.
Former Structure near Tanks 37 and 36: Chlorinated liquid tar distillates were reportedly
used in a small volume in an experimental wood treating area located near Tanks 36 and 37
(Ecology 1989). According to Roberts, chlorine was added to tanks of creosote in an effort to
Draft Remedial Investigation
Quendall Terminals RI/FS 10

Site History and Environmental Data
improve the creosote mix, but the process was not successful in practice and was shortly
discontinued (Hart Crowser 1994).
Railroad Loading Racks: In 1972, the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle (Metro) indicated
that loading areas at the railroad tracks "received heavy spilling over the years" (Metro 1972).
Roberts indicated that the railroad loading areas closest to the still house and to the south
were used for loading liquid products, and that the areas to the north (east of the pitch bays)
were used for loading solid products (Hart Crowser 1994).
2.2.2 Aboveground Storage Tanks
Historical tank locations and numbers, based on facility maps and aerial photographs, are
shown on Figure 2.2-1. The smaller tanks were also numbered, but the numbers are illegible
on the 1953 facility map. Available information regarding tank installation and use is
summarized below:
• Tanks 1 to 5: Installed in 1916, these tanks were primarily used to store creosote-
related products. Product shipping via rail also occurred in this area of the Site.
• Tanks 23 and 26: The two largest tanks, installed in 1928, had an approximate
capacity of 2 million gallons each. These tanks were primarily used to store raw tar
and later used to store Bunker C oil. The tanks contained heating elements, which
allowed for transfer of the raw tar to the still house.
• Tanks 31 to 34: The installation date of these four 20,000-gallon tanks is unknown.
They were dismantled and disposed of off site in 1974 (E&E 1990).
• Tanks 35 and 36: These 272,000-gallon tanks were installed in 1956. They were
primarily used to store creosote-related products. After Reilly Tar operations ceased,
the tanks were used to store waste oil. Historical documents do not specify what the
waste oil contained; however, the source was thought to use automobile crankcase oil
from service stations (E&E 1990).
• Tanks 37 and 38: These I million-gallon tanks were installed in 1956. They were
primarily used to store creosote-related products. After Reilly operations ceased,
tanks 37 and 38 were used to store Bunker C oil and later to store lard.

Site History and Environmental Data
2.2.3 Waste Disposal
Sumps: The sumps received effluent from still house cooling lines, and this effluent
sometimes contained creosote and tars (Retec 1996). Roberts stated that steam condensate
tubes in the still would often corrode, resulting in distillates released into the steam (CH2M
Hill 1983). This condensate would then be discharged to the sumps. Two sumps, the North
Sump and South Sump, were located west of the process area (Figure 2.2-1 ). The South
Sump was reportedly filled in before 1950 (Hart Crowser 1994). Shortly after the plant was
shut down, approximately 50 truckloads of material were excavated from the larger North
Sump and disposed of at the Coal Creek Landfill (CH2M Hill 1983).
Former May Creek Channel/Sanitary Sewer Outfall: Roberts stated that historical source
areas may be located along the former May Creek Channel because residue from
aboveground tank cleaning operations were placed there (Retec 1996). The sanitary sewer
outfall also discharged into the former channel (Republic Creosoting 1969). Roberts
indicated that the condensers sometimes leaked, allowing creosote to enter the sanitary
sewer and ultimately reach the former channel (Hart Crowser 1997).
Waste Pitches and Tar Dumps: Roberts recounted that the waste pitch, or Saturday Coke,
was chiseled out of the stills and placed near the shoreline on the northwest portion of the
Site (CH2M Hill 1983).
Tank Bottoms: When tanks were cleaned, tank bottoms were reportedly placed on Site near
the tank (CH2M Hill 1983).
2.2.4 Potentially Contaminated Fill Materials
Potentially contaminated materials used as fill at the Site include foundry slag and heavy tar
distillates, such as pitch and Saturday Coke, that are solid or semi-solid (e.g., products of high
viscosity that do not flow through porous media such as soil). Solid tar products of coal tar
distillation were produced north of the still house around the pitch bays, where pitch was
cooled. A coal shed was also located in this area according to a 1918 Plant Map.

Roberts reported that PACCAR foundry slag had been used as fill at the Quendall Site. In
one interview, he reported that it had been placed northwest of the large tank farm in the
area around Quendall Pond (CH2M Hill 1983). However, during two other interviews he
reported that these materials had been placed southwest of the tank farm (Ecology 1989;
Hart Crowser 1994).
2.2.5 Weed Control
Before 1950, sodium arsenate was reportedly sprayed at the Site every spring to control
weeds (Hart Crowser 1994).
2.2.6 Summary of Sources, Release Mechanisms and Exposure Media
The CSM, which describes primary and secondary sources and release mechanisms and
exposure media, is illustrated in Figure 2.5-1. The nature and extent of the exposure media,
NAPL, soil, groundwater, sediment, porewater, and surface water, are detailed below in
Sections 4 and 5 Contaminant fate and transport considerations associated with secondary
release mechanisms and additional exposure media important for risk evaluations (i.e., vapor
and aquatic biota) are detailed below in Section 6. Potential risks from exposure to Site
media are detailed in the Baseline Risk Assessment in Section 7.
2.3 Summary of Historical Investigations
This subsection summarizes the historical data that were determined to be useable for the
RI/FS and describes the data evaluation process that was applied to select historical data of
suitable quality to develop the CSM and identify data collection needs, per the Task 3 Report
and Task 5 Work Plan, respectively. Fallowing a summary of historical data suitable for the
RI, the data generated under the Task 5 Work Plan are briefly described to provide a
summary of the data used in this RI and risk assessment (RA). Details regarding the
application of the historical data and the data generated under Task 5 for this RI are
presented in the appropriate sections, which detail the nature and extent of contamination,
fate and transport, and risk assessment.
Numerous environmental investigations have been conducted at the Site since the 1970s, as
detailed in the Task 2 Report (Anchor and Aspect 2007a). This section summarizes the

For sampling events conducted before 1995, only the physical information is potentially
suitable for use in the RI/FS and is evaluated in the Task 3 Report and herein. While
analytical data is available from earlier events, they may not be representative of current Site
conditions because of their age. Table 2.3-1 summarizes the available historical Site
investigation data events.
2.4 Historical Data Evaluation Process
This section summarizes the process by which the quality of the historical data identified
above was evaluated for use in the RI. The sections below summarize the quality assurance
(QA) screening and corresponding data quality designations assigned to each dataset. The
detailed data validation and assignment of QA categories are provided in the Task 2 Report
(Anchor and Aspect 2007a). The Task 2 Report presented a summary of environmental
sampling data available for different Site environmental media (surface water, groundwater,
sediment, surface, and subsurface soils), along with other related information relevant to the
RI/FS. The Task 2 Report reviewed the quality of available sediment, surface water,
groundwater, and soil data collected at the Site, and evaluated such data relative to their age,
analytical methods employed, detection limits achieved, data validation methods and results,
and other data limitations and/or strengths. The Task 2 Report was conditionally approved
by EPA in August 2007.
The data screening consisted of a two-step process that first identified datasets that were
sufficiently recent (samples obtained 1995 or after) and for which adequate documentation of
event-, station-, sample-and result-level data was available. If the initial data screening

Site History and Environmental Data
parameters were met for historical investigations, additional data quality indicators were
applied that related specifically to the results and availability of quality assurance/quality
control (QNQC) information and the manner in which this information was documented.
Tirree levels of data validation were applied:
• Category QA2 was defined for this evaluation as a level of validation where full
documentation was available and n independent third party performed a full
validation. QA2 data are useable for all RI/FS purposes, including determining Site
boundaries and performing risk assessment exposure calculations.
• Category QAI was defined for this evaluation as an abbreviated data review, where
information such as method blanks, surrogates, or other quality control (QC)
summary data were reviewed. QAI results provide a more limited set of qualifiers
than QA2 data. QAI data were further categorized as QAI-or QA!+ indicating that
certain non-critical data quality indicators were either missing (QAI-) or available
(QA!+), to supplement the QAI data validation. QA! data are usable for evaluating
the nature and extent of contamination, and can be used with QA2 data to assist in
determining boundaries of contamination. QA! data are not usable for performing
risk assessment exposure calculations.
• Category QAO was assigned to data that because of age, analytical method, or lack of
complete lab report documentation, were determined to have too much uncertainty
for determining Site boundaries or risk assessment exposure concentrations. QAO
data include Woodward Clyde data collected from 1989 to 1991. Although complete
lab reports were not obtained for these data, the work was performed under an
Agreed Order with Ecology and Ecology reviewed and accepted the data for use in
the 1997 Upland RI Report (Hart Crowser 1997). These data may be used in
conjunction with higher quality data and/or other lines of evidence to assist in
identifying contaminants of interest (COis), refining nature and extent
determinations, and qualitatively evaluating historical trends in contaminant
occurrences.
The analytical chemistry data for soil, groundwater, surface water, sediment, or sediment
porewater are contained in the project database. The database includes all pertinent event,
station, sample, and result information including qualifiers determined from initial and final
reviews and overall QA category. The Site database is provided in Appendix E.

2.5 Summary RI/FS Data Needs and Task 5 Data Collection
This section provides an overview of the Task 5 efforts including the selection of indicator
chemicals, the identification of data needs, and the subsequent 2008 and 2009 RI/FS data
collection. The general discussion is framed around the three primary data collection data
quality objectives (DQOs)-nature and extent ofNAPL, nature and extent of contamination
in Site media, and fate and transport-that were detailed in the Task 5 Work Plan (Anchor
QEA and Aspect 2009a). The purpose ofthis section, along with Section 2.4, is to provide a
road map to the historical and current RI/FS Site investigations and the data to be used in the
RI/FS. The details of how historical and current data are applied in this RI and RA are
included in the relevant sections below.
2.5.1 Chemicals of Interest
The purpose of the Task 5 COI screening was to identify hazardous chemical substances
associated with historical Site uses that have the potential to pose risks to human health or
the environment. The COI selection was also used as a basis for identifying indicator
hazardous chemicals, a subset of Site CO Is used for the purpose of more efficiently
characterizing the nature and extent of contamination. The CO Is and indicator chemicals
identified in the Task 5 Work Plan were used in evaluating existing RI/FS data and guided
the collection of supplemental data necessary to complete the RI/FS.
The Site CO Is and indicator chemicals identified in the Task 5 Work Plan are further refined
through the RA, as detailed in Section 7 of this report.
2.5.2 Nature and Extent of NAPL
The RI Field Investigation included advancing soil borings and sediment cores to delineate
the vertical extent of dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) in subsurface soil and
sediment in three areas of the Site: I) in the vicinity of Quendall Pond; 2) in the former May
Creek Channel; and 3) at the T-Dock cross span. Explorations included:
• Quendall Pond: Five direct-push soil borings (QP-1 through QP-5) to a maximum
depth of 30 feet in the upland to the south, west, and north of Quendall Pond, and
eight continuous sediment vibracores (QPN-1 through QPN-8) to a maximum depth
of 15 feet in sediments offshore to the west and north of Qµendall Pond.

maximum depth of IO feet in and to the north, south, and west of the former
Channel.
• T-Dock: Seventeen core samples to a maximum depth of 15 feet along the main span
and the cross span historical spill area.
Five Quendall Pond and former May Creek Channel soil samples containing DNAPL and two
tar samples were analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi volatile organic
compounds (SVOCs) to evaluate the composition ofDNAPL in these areas.
Specific objectives and a description of field activities for the NAPL investigation are
provided in Appendix A.
2.5.3 Nature and Extent of Contamination in Groundwater
The RI Field Investigation included installing new monitoring wells, measuring water levels,
and collecting groundwater samples from monitoring wells and direct-push borings to: I)
delineate the vertical and lateral extent of groundwater contamination; 2) evaluate
seasonality of contaminant groundwater concentrations along the shoreline; and 3) evaluate
vertical and horizontal Site groundwater gradients. Work included:
• Southwestern extent of contamination: Two wells (BH-29A and BH-29B) were
installed in the southwestern comer of the Site to bound the extent of groundwater
contamination south of the former May Creek Channel.
• One well (BH-SB) was installed next to existing wells BH-SA and BH-5 to delineate
the extent of contamination at the top of the Deep Aquifer in the vicinity of Quendall
Pond.
• Two wells (BH-20C and BH-30C) were installed near the base of the Deep Aquifer to
delineate the vertical extent of groundwater contamination. Two borings (QP-6 and
QP-7) were advanced as reconnaissance borings for locating well BH-30C.
• One well (BH-25A(R)) was installed to replace an existing, damaged well.
• Groundwater samples were collected from three direct-push borings (SP-BAX9-1
through 3) to delineate the northern extent of contamination.

2.5.4 Nature and Extent of Contamination in Sediment
The RI Field Investigation included collecting surface sediment grab samples and subsurface
core samples for analysis of bulk sediment and porewater to: 1) confirm estimated boundaries
of the horizontal and vertical extent of contamination in sediment; 2) confirm estimated
boundaries of the horizontal and vertical extent of wood debris in sediment; and 3)
determine current conditions for surface and subsurface sediment. Work included:
• Forty-one surface grab samples to characterize background contaminant bulk
sediment concentrations
• Forty-six surface grab samples to characterize background contaminant sediment
porewater concentrations
• Twenty surface grab samples, ten of which were randomly selected for bulk and
porewater sediment characterization of background P AHs
• Seventeen subsurface cores in the T-Dock area to bound the extent of contamination
around historical spill areas and characterize DNAPL
• Fifteen subsurface cores in the nearshore area to bound the extent of contamination
from groundwater discharge and to characterize the flowpath
• Collection of three lake water samples for use in characterizing lake water diffusion
into surface sediment.
Specific objectives and a description of field activities for the groundwater investigation are
provided in Appendix A.
The groundwater, surface and subsurface sediment porewater, and lake water samples were
also used to address fate and transport of contamination to Lake Washington, as detailed in

3 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
3.1 Physical Characteristics
The physical characteristics of the Quendall Site discussed in this section include
topography/bathymetry and surface water drainage, climate, geology and hydrogeology
(both regional and site-specific), bathymetry and sediment characteristics, and geotechnical
characteristics. The following provides a discussion of each of these components based on
previous Site investigations and available regional information.
3.1.1 Topography and Site Drainage
The Site is located in the Puget Lowlands on the southeast side of Lake Washington. The
Site is relatively flat with hills rising to the east beyond 1-405. Much of the property was
formed by the lowering of Lake Washington in 1916, which exposed the alluvial delta of
May Creek. The creek originates in the hills east of the Site. When the Site was first
developed in the 1910s and 1920s, May Creek flowed across the southern portion of the
property as illustrated in Figure 2.2-1. Based on review of aerial photographs, the creek had
been diverted south by 1936 and no longer crossed the Site.
Site topography has been modified over the past 90 years by filling and grading activities.
The resulting topography is relatively flat, having a maximum relief of about 12 feet across
the 25-acre area (Figure 3.1-la). Upland elevations at the Site range from approximately 35
feet on the east side of the property to about 20 feet at the lake shore (all elevations reported
in North American Vertical Datum [NA VD] 88). Site drainage is relatively poor because of
the flat topography and the fine-grained nature of the shallow soils.
Recent changes in Site topography can be noted by comparing topographic maps generated
over the past 30 years as part of specific environmental and geotechnical investigations. The
most current information on topography is based on a Site survey performed by Bush Roed
Hitchings in 2009. Historical topographic surveys were also conducted in 1997 (Retec 1997c;
includes bathymetry; see Section 3.1.6) and in 1975. The comparison of 1997 contours with
1975 contours is shown on Figure 3.1-la and a comparison of 2009 topographic contours
with the 1975 contours is shown on Figure 3.1-1 b. The source of topographic contours on
site maps provided in Woodward Clyde Consultants Technical Memorandum No. 1

Environmental Setting
(Woodward Clyde 1990) and the Hart Crowser (1997) RI Report is not referenced, but the
maps appear identical to topographic maps based on aerial photography dated December 6,
1975.
Key differences between the 1975 and 1997 maps include:
• Generally lower elevations (typically 2 to 5 feet) were observed across the Site in 1975
compared with the 1997 topographic map, attributable to fill that was imported and
placed on the Site in the 1980s.
• Berms in the center of the Site (around the ASTs) are shown in the 1975 map, but are
absent in the 1997 topographic map.
• Several mounds are shown on the 1997 topographic map, which have been
characterized as piles of wood debris from log yard operations.
No significant grading or filling activities have occurred since approximately 1997. Activities
that have resulted in relatively minor changes to Site topography include:
• Under the Ecology Agreed Order, a stormwater control pilot study was implemented
in 2004 to direct stormwater runoff away from Quendall Pond. A small detention
basin was excavated south of the pond, and a berm was constructed between the log
yard and the pond.
• In 2006, the former Site tenant performed the following:
Increased the capacity of drainage ditches, including installation of rock check
dams and silt fencing. along the south property boundary.
Constructed a silt fence and sediment/debris trap between the access road and the
southern property shoreline.
Constructed an earthen berm between a settling basin and the shoreline,
improving drainage ditches with rock check dams to route Site runoff to Quendall
Pond, and increased the capacity of a settling basin just upland of the dock area.
• In 2009, several stormwater best management practices (BMPs) were implemented at
the Site to control runoff. Activities are documented in the Construction Report
(Aspect 2009) and included installation of two shallow swales that directed
stormwater away from Quendall Pond (Figure 2.1-2), installation and improvements
of berms along the lakeshore, and mulching and hydroseeding soils disturbed from

former log yard operations.
• As part of the recent development of the Conner Homes property, Quendall
Terminals dedicated the far southeastern comer of the Site right-of-way easement to
the City of Renton and the developer placed several feet of fill as sub-base for an
access road in this location.
• As part of the recent development of the Football Northwest property, the developer
placed quarry spalls and gravel in the northeastern comer of the Site, within a right-
of-way easement, as a roadbed for construction access.
During the rainy season, much of the runoff in the center of the Site that is not diverted by
the two shallow swales flows into two stormwater collection ponds on the west side of the
Site (Quendall Pond and South Detention Pond). Stormwater also accumulates in low-lying
areas east of BH-24, southwest of BH-21NB, and south of BH-20NB.
Approximate locations of Site stormwater control swales and ditches are shown on Figure
2.1-1. Included on Figure 2.1-1 are generalized drainage patterns observed during
inspections of the stormwater BMPs described above.
3.1.2 Site Climatic Conditions
The climate in the Site vicinity is characterized as Pacific Marine, typical of the Puget Sound
area. Winters are generally mild and wet, and summers are usually dry. Based on data
available for SeaTac International Airport from 1931 to 2006, annual precipitation ranges
between 23.8 and 55.1 inches with a mean of 38.1 inches. A majority of the precipitation
occurs between November and February. Monthly winter temperatures average between 35
and 49 degrees Fahrenheit while monthly summer temperatures range between 51 and 75
degrees Fahrenheit.
Wind direction, distribution frequency, and wind velocity data are available for the SeaTac
International Airport, and are summarized in Figure 3.1-2. These data indicate that wind
direction is most frequently from the south-southwest and north. Wind coming from the
west across the Pacific Ocean is typically deflected around the Olympic range and enters the
Puget Sound from either the north or south. This regional wind pattern is reinforced at the

Environmental Setting
Site by its location on the shore of Lake Washington, where wind is likely to follow the
water area between Mercer Island and the Renton shore.
3.1.3 Regional Hydrogeology
The Site is located in the southeastern part of the Puget Sound Lowland. The physiographic
features of the lowland are dominated by repeated advances and recessions of glacial ice
within the lowland. The hills to the east of the Site are composed of glacial and non-glacial
soils with bedrock outcrops a mile east of the Site. A map of the regional geology is provided
on Figure 3.1-3, and shows the outcropping of bedrock to the east and southwest, forming
the margins of the Cedar River drainage. A conceptual regional geologic cross section shown
on Figure 3.1-4, extending east of the Site, illustrates a sequence of fine and coarse-grained
materials overlying bedrock as documented in area well and boring logs. The presence of
bedrock and fine-grained deposits limits the lateral extent of aquifers encountered beneath
the Site, isolating it from regional aquifers located south in the Cedar River valley.
The groundwater flow system is characterized primarily by recharge in the upland areas east
and the May Creek drainage south/southeast of the Site, with flow towards the west and
discharge to Lake Washington. Site groundwater likely originates from precipitation on and
east of the Site and recharge from alluvial deposits in the May Creek drainage immediately
south of the Site. The months ofJuly through September constitute the low precipitation
period when groundwater recharge is generally at its lowest. Conversely, the months of
November through February are the rainy period when groundwater recharge is at its
highest. Beneficial use of groundwater is discussed below in Section 3.3.2.
3.1.4 Site Geology
The geologic units beneath the Site consist of highly heterogeneous alluvial and lacustrine
silts, sands, and peat underlain by a coarser sand-gravel alluvium. The alluvial deposits have
been overlain by fill deposited over the years since the lake levels were lowered in 1916.
The alluvium was deposited by May Creek, and the Site is located within the creek's delta.
The shape of the delta below lake level extends approximately 5,000 feet along the shoreline
of Lake Washington, and projects up to 3,000 feet offshore toward Mercer Island (Figure 3.1-
3). Normal delta processes and periodic earthquake-induced landslides that occurred at the

Environmental Setting
margin of the delta have resulted in a deposit with abruptly changing lithologies and little
vertical or lateral continuity.
Detailed geologic cross sections along four alignments depict subsurface conditions and the
relationship of the uplands portion of the Site to Lake Washington and underlying
sediments. The geologic and hydrostratigraphic interpretation depicted in the text below
and on the referenced cross sections is based on identification and correlation of specific
strata observed in the Site borings. Significant consideration was also given to the location of
the Site within the context of regional and local topographic and physiographic features-
including Lake Washington, May Creek, and the Renton uplands-and the geologic history
of the Puget Sound region, including documented glacial and non-glacial depositional
sequences (Troost and Booth 2008; Karlin et al. 2004; Pacific Northwest Center for Geologic
Mapping Studies 2006). Cross section locations are depicted on Figure 3.1-5 with the cross
sections on Figures 3.1-6 through 3.1-10. A discussion of the major geologic units is provided
below.
3.1.4.1 Fill and Fill History
Fill is found across the entire Site. Along the southern and eastern boundaries, fill ranges
from 1 to 2 feet in thickness, while in other Site areas the fill ranges to more than JO feet
thick. Most commonly, the fill is a mix of silt, sand, and gravel with wood debris. Wood
chips and bark from the log sorting operations are common in the upper few feet. Where
creosote and pitch-like material has been encountered in soil explorations, such materials
have generally been observed at depths greater than 2 feet below ground surface (bgs).
Specific areas of Site fill include:
• Northwest Quarter of Site: Fill may be as thick as 10 to 14 feet in this portion of the
Site. Fill in this area includes abundant wood material, glass, brick, and pitch-like

• East of Quendall Pond: Fill is 7 to 9 feet in thickness with brick and pitch-like
material observed in area explorations (BH-5/SA, TP-4, and TP-9).
• Former May Creek Channel: Exploration logs from this area indicate that some of the
fill includes tar, brick, wood, and metal fragments to depths of 6 to 7 feet.
• Former Tank Area: Tar and pitch were logged at a depth of 5 feet in borings BH-5,

BH-6, and BH-25. This may represent a previous ground surface in the former tank
area.
• West of South Detention Pond: In July 2007, slag-like material was observed in near
surface soils in the area of former well BH-12.
Fill history is informed by geologic characteristics identified in subsurface explorations and
historical records. Key episodes of Site fill placement are summarized below:
• The Lake Washington Ship Canal was completed in 1916, which resulted in the
lowering of the lake level by about 9 feet. Not long after the lake was lowered, tar
refining operations began at the Site. Both the existing shoreline and the historical
(pre-1916) lake shoreline based on historical WDNR maps are shown on Figure 2.2-1.
• May Creek stream channels were located on the southern portion of the Site until the
creek was rerouted sometime between 1920 and 1936. These channels have now
been filled in. The former channel locations on the Site, indicated by early WDNR
maps, are shown on Figure 2.2-1.
• Solidified tar products (pitch or Saturday coke) were reportedly placed on the Site
during the period of creosote manufacturing (CH2MHill 1983). These materials as
well as other debris, including brick, concrete, and metal, have been observed in the
fill unit.
• Foundry slag from PACCAR, Inc., was reported by Roberts to have been placed as fill
along the shoreline (CH2MHill 1983; Ecology 1989; Hart Crowser 1994). Although
geologic logs in this area generally have not identified slag, a few pieces of slag-like
material were identified in the June 2007 well survey east of the former location of
well BH-12.
• In 1983, Quendall Terminals placed approximately 3 feet of fill consisting of sawdust
and dirt over most of the Site.
• Log yard operations have resulted in the creation of several piles on the Site
consisting largely of wood debris.
Fill is typically only seasonally saturated in isolated areas around the Site and does not
substantially affect the Site-wide groundwater flow regime. Fill materials, like the Shallow
Alluvium discussed below, are heterogeneous and could provide preferential flowpaths to
groundwater when saturated. However, due to the heterogeneous nature of the material

Environmental Setting
used, hydraulic effects are expected to be localized. Areas where the lower portion of the fill
unit is seasonally saturated, such as in the nonhwest comer of the Site, do not appear to
influence the Site-wide groundwater flow regime.
3.1.4.2 Shallow Alluvium
The Site Shallow Alluvium is pan of the May Creek delta. The May Creek delta is best
illustrated on the topographic map in Figure 3.1-11, where the deltaic fan is seen as a bulge
extending west into Lake Washington. The Site is located at the approximate center of that
fan.
These deltaic deposits consist of interbedded sand, silt, clayey silt, organic silt, and peat beds.
The Shallow Alluvium occurs to a depth of about 25 to 40 feet, with thinner deposits in the
southeastern portion of the Site. Saturated conditions have been encountered at depths
ranging from 2 to 10 feet depending on groundwater elevation and seasonal recharge.
The majority of the delta is composed of gently dipping foreset beds consisting of very soft
peat and organic silts interbedded with very loose silty, fine to medium sand. In a typical
deltaic depositional environment, sediment is deposited on the delta slope at an angle that is
marginally stable. The accumulated sediment periodically slumps or flows down the face of
the delta. The process of alternating deposition of finer and coarser sedimentation continues
as the delta accumulates material over time. As the sediment built up a topographic mound
around the mouth of May Creek, the stream would periodically jump its bank and shift
laterally to a new position. Deposition of coarse-grained sedimentation then resumed
elsewhere on the delta and the former location of sandy deposition was blanketed with silt
and clay. As the result of historical earthquake activity in the area, large ponions of the delta
slump into deeper water, contributing further to the discontinuous nature of these deltaic
deposits.
The discontinuous layering observed at the Site borings and illustrated on the cross sections
is consistent with a deltaic depositional environment. Cross sections A-A' and B-B' (Figures
3.1-6 and 3.1-7) illustrate the foreset beds deposited by the May Creek channel. Note that
the angle of the beds appears exaggerated due to the vertical exaggeration of the cross
sections. The lateral migration of the stream bed is illustrated in the cross sections C-C' and

0-0' oriented north-south (Figures 3.1-8 and 3.1-9). The subsurface geology is based on the
borings illustrated on the figures.
3.1.4.3 Deeper Alluvium
The Deeper Alluvium is generally coarser, consisting of medium dense to dense sand and
gravels. This unit occurs at a depth of 30 to 40 feet, with a shallower occnrtence of about 25
feet at the southeast comer of the Site (BH-17B). The sand and gravel most likely represents
a historical continuation of the May Creek delta.
As inferred from geophysical explorations (Woodward Clyde 1988) and four Site deep
borings, the base of this unit is estimated to be in the range of 90 to 137 feet bgs. Borings
SWB-3 and SWB-4B were completed to depths of 121 and 151 feet, respectively (Shannon
Wilson 1997). In these borings, a fine to medium sand was encountered at approximately 90
feet, followed by a silty clay deposit at approximately 120 feet. The clay was interpreted to
be a Jacustrine deposit consisting of a very soft to medium stiff silty clay. A third deep boring
(SWB-8) was completed to a depth of 121.5 feet near the lake shore and did not reach this
fine grained sequence. Most recently, two borings (BH-20C and BH-30C) were advanced to
a depth of 140 feet and 142 feet bgs, respectively. Boring BH-20C encountered the silty clay
at 137 feet bgs, while boring BH-30C encountered 10 feet of clay at 127 feet bgs. In addition,
Boring BH-30C identified a sequence of interbedded clay and fine sand layers from
approximately 105 to 127 feet bgs, and fine sand from 127 to 142 feet. A boring advanced
several hundred feet east of the Site (B9; Shannon and Wilson 2000) indicates the clay is in
excess of 40 feet thick at that location.
3.1.5 Site Groundwater Hydrology
Three aquifer zones have been identified beneath the Site and are described as the Shallow
Aquifer, Deep Aquifer, and the Artesian Aquifer zones. The groundwater flow system
within the Shallow and Deep Aquifer zones is the primary focus of the RI/FS. The Shallow
Aquifer occurs in the fill material and peat, silt, sand deposits (Shallow Alluvium) from near
ground surface to approximately 35 feet bgs. The Deep Aquifer occurs within the coarser
alluvium (Deeper Alluvium) from approximately 35 feet bgs to approximately 140 feet bgs.
The water table is typically encountered at depths of 6 to 8 feet in the Shallow Aquifer. The
Draft Remedial Investigation
Quendall Tenninals Rl!FS 30
March2010
060059-01
Environmental Setting
discontinuous layers of silt, sandy silt, and peat provide varying degrees of hydraulic
separation between the two aquifers.
The presence of flowing conditions in the former plant water supply well located at the Site
indicates a deeper confined aquifer, which for purposes of the RI/FS is referred to as the
Artesian Aquifer. The plant well was recently located in a field survey and is located north
of BH-30C. Based on field observations, the well is constructed of 2-inch diameter steel well
casing. According to a former plant manager, the well is 180 feet deep (Hart Crowser 1994).
The well exhibited flowing artesian pressures when the well cap was removed. Aside from
the former plant well, no other wells are known to have been installed in this aquifer zone.
3.1.5.1 Seasonal Variability
Historical water level measurements collected from Site groundwater monitoring wells are
summarized in Table 3.1-1. Measurements made in the 1995 to 1996 season were the most
complete for evaluating the seasonal variability in groundwater flow across the Site. In 1995
to 1996, Hart Crowser measured water levels bimonthly in on-Site monitoring wells, the
Quendall Pond, the South Detention Pond, and Lake Washington. The elevation of Lake
Washington is controlled by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USA CE) at the Hiram
Chittenden Locks. The lake is at its maximum elevation of 18.7 feet (NAVD88) in June and
early July and its minimum elevation of 16.7 feet in December, January, and early February.
Water level elevation data collected in years before and since the 1995 to 1996 monitoring
program show little variation in seasonal groundwater patterns or minimum/maximum Site
groundwater elevations.
Water level measurements were collected periodically in 2004 to 2005, primarily associated
with the monitoring of Quendall Pond. Water level measurements were collected from BH-
5, BH-5A, BH-19NB, BH-21A, RW-QP-1, and RW-NS-1, including the stage height of the
ponds. This information was used to determine the local groundwater/surface water
interaction. The conclusion of the study was that the pond was connected to a seasonally
perched groundwater unit observed at BH-5A that, when filled during the winter months,
resulted in seeps through the west bank of Quendall Pond to Lake Washington.
Draft Remedial Investigation
Quendall Terminals RI/FS 31
March2010

Environmental Setting
In June 2007, November 2008, and September 2009, water level measurements were
collected from all available Site monitoring wells. September 2009 measurements were
coordinated with water level measurements on the Conner Homes property to the south of
the Site.
3.1.5.2 Vertical Gradients
During 1995 to 1996, water level measurements were collected from six shallow/deep Site
well pairs. The shallow/deep well pairs were completed at depths that ranged from 20 to 41
feet apart. A consistent downward gradient ranging between -0.01 and -0.12 feet per foot
(ft/ft) was recorded in well pairs located towards the center of the Site and eastward (BH-
17 NB, BH-26NB, and BH-25NB). The highest downward gradients were typically
observed during the winter months when recharge is greatest. Wells that were completed
near the shoreline (BH-18NB, BH-20NB, and BH-21NB) exhibited consistently upward
gradients ranging between 0.01 and 0.05 ft/ft with the exception of BH-18NB. The highest
upward gradients in nearshore wells are typically observed in the fall, when recharge is low
and the lake level is dropping. However, in the winter months at BH-18NB, a downward
gradient of up to -0.02 ft/ft has been recorded. This area of the Site, located at the edge of a
wetland area, likely receives more recharge, and this well pair is also located farther from the
shoreline relative to the other nearshore wells.
3.1.5.3 Hydraulic Conductivity Estimates
Hydraulic conductivities of the Shallow and Deep Aquifers and Lake Washington sediments
were characterized in previous studies (Woodward Clyde 1992; Hart Crowser 1997; Anchor
and Aspect 2004). Table 3.1-2 presents a compilation of estimates of hydraulic conductivity
derived from aquifer testing (i.e., pumping or slug tests), grain size analysis, and sediment
vertical permeability measurements using a piezo-seep meter. Pumping test, slug test, and
grain size data were used to estimate hydraulic conductivities for the Shallow and the Deep
Aquifers. Specific parameters used to characterize each of the aquifers are presented below.
3.1.5.4 Shallow Aquifer
Water level data for the Shallow Aquifer are shown as groundwater elevation contours on
Figures 3.1-12 and 3.1-13. These figures represent the seasonal hydraulic gradients observed

Environmental Setting
in the Shallow Aquifer during November 2008 and September 2009. They illustrate the
consistent flow of groundwater in the Shallow Aquifer to the west toward Lake Washington.
A horizontal hydraulic gradient of0.005 ft/ft was measured in September 2009, when Lake
Washington was near its maximum water level and groundwater elevations were on a
decline. During the wetter month of November 2008, an average horizontal hydraulic
gradient of0.005 ft/ft was observed Site-wide; however, the gradient steepened to 0.01 ft/ft
as groundwater nears discharge to Lake Washington. Higher gradients occur when Lake
Washington water levels are at their minimum and Site groundwater levels are rising due to
higher precipitation recharge to the shallow groundwater system.
Hydraulic conductivity data indicate at least a two order of magnitude range in Shallow
Aquifer materials from lxI0-2 to lxJ0-4 centimeters/second (cm/s). Due to the highly
interbedded nature of the Shallow Alluvium, the Shallow Aquifer is assumed to be highly
anisotropic with respect to hydraulic conductivity, indicating preferential groundwater flow
pathways are near horizontal and impeding vertical movement of groundwater. Anisotropy
value for this type of aquifer is typically greater than 100: 1 horizontal to vertical
conductivity (Freeze and Cheery 1979).
3.1.5.5 Deep Aquifer
The Deep Aquifer flows consistently toward Lake Washington as illustrated by the water
level collected (Table 3.1-1). During the 1995 to 1996 season, flow gradients toward the lake
ranged from 0.005 ft/ft (August 1995) to 0.04 ft/ft (December 1995). Like the Shallow
Aquifer, water level data indicate that the Deep Aquifer is equally affected by lake levels and
recharge with the maximum, wet season gradient being more than double the minimum, dry
season gradient. More recent measurements show horizontal gradients of 0.003 ft/ft and
0.002 ft/ft for November 2008 and September 2009 respectively.
The measurement of hydraulic conductivity available for the Deep Aquifer is 2xl0·2 cm/sec
at BH-18B. This measurement is consistent with literature values for sand and gravel (Freeze
and Cherry 1979).

3.1.5.6 Groundwater Flaw Canditians
Groundwater flow conditions at the Site were evaluated using groundwater hydraulic
models. Several different models have been developed depicting the Site conceptual
groundwater flow regime. Hart Crowser (1997) initially used FLONET to conceptualize
groundwater flowpaths across the Site while Retec (1998) developed a groundwater flow
model using Visual MODFLOW. In support of this RI effort, a similar numerical
groundwater flow model was developed using MOD FLOW incorporating the most recently
collected stratigraphic and hydraulic data. A description of the construction, calibration, and
results of this model in provided in Appendix F.
Based on this most recent modeling, Figures 3.1-12 and 3.1-13 illustrates the pathway of Site
groundwater flow. Groundwater flow between the Shallow and Deep Aquifers is influenced
by the vertical gradients observed at the Site. As discussed in Section 3.1.5.2, vertical
gradients are downward in the eastern portion of the Site, resulting in downward flow into
the Deep Aquifer and transition to upward flow near the shoreline, resulting in discharge to
Lake Washington. Groundwater enters the Site as underflow from the east and from
infiltration of on-Site precipitation. As illustrated by the flow lines, groundwater moves
through the property from east to west. Through the anisotropic Shallow Aquifer,
groundwater generally moves laterally to the west with a downward component in the
eastern portion of the Site, primarily horizontally through the central Site area, and then
upward at the shoreline before discharging to Lake Washington. Groundwater flow in the
Deep Aquifer is predominately horizontal until it nears Lake Washington, where flowpaths
bend upward consistent with discharge into Lake Washington.
3.1.5.7 Groundwater Discharge to Lake Washington
Groundwater in the Shallow and Deep Aquifers discharges into Lake Washington. The
discharge rate of groundwater to Lake Washington through nearshore lake sediments has
been estimated in several studies through a combination of empirical measurement and
modeling. Results of these studies are summarized in Table 3.1-3.
Field studies have included:
• Aspect 2003. Seepage rates were estimated by measuring the vertical gradients
Draft Remedial Investigation
Quendall Tenninals RJ/FS 34

Environmental Setting
through shallow sediments (upper 12 to 60 inches) and by measuring the vertical
hydraulic conductivity of shallow sediments (upper 12 inches) using a piezo-seep
meter (summarized above in Section 3.1.5.3 and discussed in Appendix F of the Draft
RNFS, Anchor and Aspect 2004). Estimated Darcy velocities (i.e., one dimensional
flux) ranged from 0.1 to 12 cm/day.
• EPA 2009. Seepage rates were estimated by deploying bucket-and-bag seepage meters
at several locations in April and May 2009. Methods and results were documented in
draft field reports (EPA 2009a and 2009b). Estimated Darcy velocities ranged from
0.05 to 3 cm/day.
The geometric mean of all field-estimated seepage rates measured at the Site is 0.83 cm/day.
It should be noted that significant variation was noted in the field measurements, even
between seepage meters collected at the same location on consecutive days (EPA 2009b).
Field measurements of groundwater seepage, particularly in horizontally stratified deposits
observed beneath the Site lake bed sediments are prone to a high degree of variability.
Although the stratified deposits beneath the lakebed include high permeability sand lenses,
vertical flow velocities will be limited by the lower permeability silt and peat layers that
comprise the stratified delta deposit. Due to the limited depth of the seepage meter
embedment, the higher end of the observed vertical flow velocities are generally not
representative of flow rates across the entire stratified deposit.
For this RI, the groundwater hydraulic model described above and in Appendix F was used
to estimate seepage rate through the sediments from 40 to 240 feet offshore along three
transects. The model-predicted seepage rate varies across the sediment bed due to
differences in the offshore thickness of the Shallow Alluvium (based on sediment core logs)
and changes in the model-predicted gradient moving offshore. The average seepage rate was
calculated to be 0.44 cm/day, with a standard deviation of ±0.13 cm/day.
The hydraulic model does not account for local variations in the composition of the Shallow
Alluvium. To estimate the variability that might result from local stratigraphic differences,
the nearshore sediment core logs (NS-1 through NS-15) were reviewed and the percentage of
layers that primarily contained low-permeability materials (e.g., silt or peat) was calculated.
The average percent thickness of low permeability materials was calculated to be 47 percent,

Quendall Terminals R1IFS 35
March2010

Environmental Setting
with a standard deviation of ±25 percent (see Table 3.1-3). Incorporating this variability into
the estimated flux, the model-estimated seepage rate is therefore approximately 0.44 cm/day
with a standard error of ±0.27 cm/day (160 ± 97 cm/year). These values were used as input to
the sediment porewater fate and transport modeling discussed in Section 6.4.2.
3.1.6 Bathymetry and Sediment Characteristics
As discussed above in Section 2.2.1 and depicted in Figure 3.1-lB, topographic and
bathymetric survey data were available for the years 1975 and 1996. Overall, Site
bathymetry has been similar through the 22-year time span and minor changes in mudline
elevation that may have occurred over this period are likely the result of natural sediment
transport processes. Surface sediment conditions were characterized in 1996 using sediment
profile imaging (SPI), video transect surveys for determination of surface wood debris, side-
scan sonar surveys to map large debris, beach surveys, and surface sediment grab sampling
(Retec 1997b). Follow-on diver-operated video transect surveys were performed by EPA in
2009 and revealed similar distributions of submerged wood debris at the Site.
The primary bathymetric feature in the nearshore is the sand spit to the north of the T-Dock.
The lake bottom is relatively flat between the inner and outer harbor lines with water depths
at the outer harbor line ranging from 26 to 31 feet (as measured at normal high water line).
The maximum water depth between the Site and Mercer Island is approximately 70 feet
(Retec 1997b).
Bottom substrate is typically a fine silt/mud, although several areas with a sandier bottom
were evident, including the Quendall sand spit and sediments near the outer harbor line
south of the T-Dock. With the exception of a wood debris area along the southern shoreline,
aquatic vegetation is dominated by dense areas of Eurasian watermilfoil.
3.1.7 Geotechnical Characteristics
Site geotechnical studies have been conducted by Twelker in 1971, CH2M Hill in 1978, and
Shannon and Wilson in 1997. In 2009, Aspect completed a preliminary geotechnical study
compiling data from these previous studies and other geotechnical data available for the
Quendall Site (Aspect 2009). A summary of the Aspect's geotechnical findings are provided
below. For further details, refer to the reports referenced above.
Draft Remedial Investigation

Environmental Setting
In general, soils from O feet to approximately 25 feet deep (Fill and Shallow Alluvium) are
relatively weak with variable compressibility and permeability characteristics. Soils from
approximately 25 feet to 135 feet (Lower Alluvium Deposits) are moderately strong with low
compressibility and high permeability. Below 120 feet, soils consist of Lacustrine deposits
with moderate strength, low to moderate compressibility, and low permeability and are
presumed to overlie other glacial deposits and bedrock.
The near-surface soils (Fill and Shallow Alluvium) are considered to be compressible and
weak. Therefore, deep foundations (piles) would be required to support the buildings and
any other heavily loaded and/or settlement-sensitive strucrures. Seismic hazards to consider
for Site development include surface fault rupture due to the Site proximity to the Seattle
Fault Zone, amplification of strong shaking as a result of the soft soil profile, and liquefaction
of the relatively weak granular soils beneath the Site. The Site is located in a moderately
active seismic zone. The subsurface soils beneath the Site exhibit susceptibility to
liquefaction to a depth of about 80 feet.
3.2 Natural Resources
This section briefly summarizes natural resources at the Site and adjacent areas and their
management. More detailed information on natural resources is provided in the risk
assessment as it applies to the selection of receptors of concern.
3.2.1 Upland and Aquatic Habitat
The upland area is characterized by log handling and storage uses that have resulted in large
deposits of wood debris covering access roads and storage areas. The Site vegetation consists
primarily of early successional species and invasive species including large stands of
Himalayan blackberry and Scot's broom. Site wetlands were most recently surveyed in 2009,
including assessments of water quality, hydrologic, and habitat functional values (Anchor
QEA 2009). Five current Site wetlands were previously constructed as depressions to control
spills and stormwater flows, and more recently to avoid disruption to log storage operations
that have since ceased. Historical construction of each these features influences the
regulatory starus of these wetlands as determined by the municipal, state, and/or federal
Draft Remedial Investigation

Environmental Setting
regulations. A more detailed discussion of wetland delineation, lake ordinary high water
mark (OHWM) delineation, and habitat assessments at the Site are provided in Anchor QEA
(2009).
The shoreline can be divided into three sections. The northern area, including the sand spit,
is low and sloping with upland vegetation and a sandy beach. There is a marshy area behind
the sand beach. The middle section is characterized by beaches with wood and other debris
and shoreline with brush and small trees. The southern end of the property is partially
bulkheaded and armored with riprap. There is no vegetation on the southern uplands
because of the log handling activities. Beach and nearshore restoration was completed south
of the Site (i.e., on aquatic lands adjacent to the Conner Homes Site) in 2005, in accordance
with federal, state, and local permits and a WDNR Right of Entry.
3.2.2 Riparian and Submerged Plants
Riparian vegetation is generally present across the Site shoreline, with the exception of the
southern log handling area. Aquatic vegetation is mostly dense beds of Eurasian milfoil,
which has choked out the majority of native plant growth (KCDNR 2003).
3.2.3 Benthic Organisms
Benthic invertebrates have been described for Lake Washington near the Site by EVS (1990)
and identified and enumerated in surface sediment samples by Ecology (1991 and 1992).
Chironomids constitute the majority of the benthic abundance and biomass. Other prevalent
taxa include oligochaetes, bivalves, porifera, amphipods, and copepods.
3.2.4 Phytoplankton and Zooplankton
Phytoplankton populations are relatively uniform throughout Lake Washington. Dominant
species vary seasonally. In winter and spring, the phytoplankton community is dominated
by diatoms. In June, in response to nutrient depletion, diatom populations decline and
gelatinous green or blue-green algae dominate (EVS 1990). Zooplankton populations are
distributed in random patches, with a relative constant composition of crustaceans and
rotifers, dominated by Daphnia species (EVS 1990).

3.2.5 Fish
Based on a review of Lake Washington fish species information (EVS 1990; KCDNRP 2003;
WDFW 2009; WDOH 2004; and Wydoski and Whitney 2003), resident and migratory
species were inventoried, their life history needs were compared to available Site niches, and
representative species were selected.
The fish community in Lake Washington is dominated by cutthroat trout ( Oncorhynchus
clarla), northern pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus oregonensis), yellow perch (Perea flavescens),
smallmouth bass (Micropterus dolomiem), and sockeye salmon ( 0. nerka). Other fish species
include rainbow trout, steelhead ( 0. mykiss), coho and Chinook salmon ( 0. tshawytscha),
lamprey, sculpin, carp, bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus), and threespine stickleback
( Gasterosteus aculeatus). Longfin smelt (Spirinchus thaleichthys) are known to spawn in
May Creek. Salmon species are likely to use the nearshore area as juveniles.
The mouth of May Creek was historically relocated from its original delta position. Due to
upstream development, the creek experiences elevated peak flows along with relatively large
sediment loads that are detrimental to fish and wildlife habitat.
Additional information on fish species is provided in Appendix B of the Task 3 Report.
3.2.6 Wildlife
Mammals observed in the Quendall Site vicinity include occasional coyotes ( Canis larans)
and red fox ( Vulpes vulpes), deer, raccoons, skunks, river otters, beaver, weasels, opossums,
and rodents including rabbits, squirrels, shrews, mice, voles, and bats.
Birds found at the Site may include seabirds such as great blue heron (Ardea herodias),
common merganser (Mergus merganser), mallard (Anas platyrhynchos), spotted sandpiper
(Actitis maculan·us), and osprey (Pandion haliaetus); bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus);
and upland birds such as wrens, crows, woodpeckers, robins, sparrows and finches.
Amphibians potentially using the Site include several salamander species, including the
Pacific giant salamander (Dicamptodon tenebrosus), and several frog species, including the

Oregon spotted frog (Rana pretiosa) and non-native bullfrogs. Reptiles include newts,
lizards, turtles, and common garter snakes.
Additional information on wildlife species is provided in Appendix B of the Task 3 Report.
3.2.7 Threatened and Endangered Species
Federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) -listed species that use the Quendall Site include:
• Chinook salmon
• Steelhead
• Bull trout
Juveniles of all three species may use the nearshore for rearing; however, steelhead are more
likely to remain in their natal streams until they migrate directly to Puget Sound.
3.2.8 Resource Management
This section provides a discussion of water resource, tribal and recreational fisheries, and
shoreline management. The Lake Washington fishery is co-managed by Washington
Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and the Muckleshoot, Suquamish, and Tulalip
Tribes. Lake Washington is a Usual and Accustomed (U&A) fishing ground for these tribes.
The Hiram M. Chittenden Locks regulate water levels in the lake. The locks are managed by
USACE. The King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks administers the
Shoreline Management Program for Water Resources Inventory Area (WRIA) 8. On behalf
of the State of Washington, the WDNR manages the aquatic land below the ordinary high
water line.
The Lake Washington/Cedar/Sammamish watershed is managed by the WRIA 8 Steering
Committee, which consists of delegates from city governments (including the City of Renton
and others), county governments (including King County), state and federal agencies, sewer,
water, and conservation districts, and private entities, foundations, and councils.

3.3.1 Surrounding land Use
The Site and surrounding properties are zoned Commercial/Office/Residential. To the east.
the property is bordered by the Burlington Northern Railroad right-of-way, which in turn is
bordered on the east by Ripley Lane and Lake Washington Boulevard North. Adjacent to the
south is the Conner Homes property, which is currently being developed for residential
townhomes. The property to the north is owned by Port Quendall Company/Football
Northwest, and has been developed for office and recreational field use. Extensive
environmental investigations have been performed on both the Conner Homes and Football
Northwest properties. Soil, groundwater, and sediment cleanup actions were completed on
these properties prior to recent redevelopment, as described below.
3.3.1.1 Conner Homes Property
The Conner Homes property was formerly operated as a lumber mill by Barbee Mill Marine
Yards from 1943 to 1945, and Barbee Mill Co., Inc., from 1945 to 2001 (Hart Crowser 2000).
Environmental investigations indicated the presence of arsenic in soil and groundwater on
the northern portion of the property where an experimental arsenic solution was used to
treat wood in the late 1940s. The area of impacted groundwater extended from the former
treatment area to the northwest, crossing the southwestern corner of the Quendall Terminals
property as shown on Figure 3.3-1. Localized occurrences of pentachlorophenol (PCP),
which was used in small quantities in a spray for sap stain control prior to 1978, and
petroleum hydrocarbons used to run mill equipment, were identified in the central portion
(mill area) of the property.
A cleanup action that combined removal and containment technologies and supported
residential development of the property was implemented and included the following
(Aspect 2006):
• Removal of soils containing PCP and total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) above State
MTCA (Chapter 173-340 WAC) unrestricted use cleanup levels
• Removal of soils in the upper 15 feet containing arsenic above MTCA unrestricted use
cleanup levels
• Installation of a passive attenuation zone (PAZ) along the downgradient property
boundary to intercept and remove arsenic from groundwater migrating towards Lake

Environmental Setting
Washington above the MTCA cleanup level
• Installation of a groundwater extraction and treatment system to remove the highest
concentrations of arsenic-impacted groundwater upgradient of the PAZ
• Placement of institutional controls on the property, including deed restrictions
preventing groundwater withdrawal or disturbance of the PAZ.
• Monitoring arsenic concentrations in groundwater and sediment porewater
upgradient and downgradient of the PAZ, including well points on the southwestern
corner of the Qµendall Site.
The areas addressed by the cleanup action, the location of existing compliance monitoring
wells, and the arsenic concentrations measured at these wells in September 2009 are shown
in Figure 3.3-1.
3.3.1.2 Football Northwest Property
The Football Northwest property was formerly owned by the J.H. Baxter Company, which
operated a wood treatment plant from 1955 to 1981. Wood was treated using either creosote
or PCP dissolved in an aromatic oil. Following several environmental investigations, PCP
and PAHs were identified as chemicals of concern in soil, groundwater, and sediments.
Dioxins and furans were also identified as a chemical of concern, but because dioxin/furan
occurrences were collocated with PCP, the indicator hazardous substance PCP was used as a
surrogate for evaluating and addressing dioxin contamination (Retec 2000). In the J.H.
Baxter Remedial Investigation (Woodward Clyde 1997), eight surface soil samples with the
highest concentrations of PCP were submitted for dioxin analysis. Only dioxin congeners
with six to eight chlorine substituents were detected, consistent with the components of
commercial-grade PCP. Dioxin and furan congeners were detected at concentrations
ranging from 0.033 to 2,770 µg/kg in the eight samples.
A MTCA cleanup action that combined removal and containment technologies was
completed at the Football Northwest property and included the following:
• Removal of DNAPL from one well
• Focused removal of shallow hot-spot soils containing light non-aqueous phase liquid
(LNAPL)
• Focused removal of shallow hot-spot sediments in Baxter Cove

Environmental Setting
• In-situ stabilization of NAPL-irnpacted soil near the shoreline
• Placement of a cap on upland soils across the property
• Implementation of institutional controls to address contamination left in place,
including prevention of groundwater withdrawal, groundwater compliance
monitoring, and operations and maintenance requirements for the soil cap.
Areas addressed by the cleanup action and the location of existing compliance monitoring
well, are shown on Figure 3.3-2.
3.3.2 Drinking Water Use
Site facilities and all surrounding properties are served by City of Renton and Coal Creek
Water District municipal water lines, which will continue to be used in the future. Coal
Creek Water District is supplied with water from the City of Seattle system, which uses
surface water from the Cedar River watershed. The City of Renton system is supplied by
groundwater from wells located approximately 4 miles southeast of the Quendall Site in
downtown Renton. To protect their groundwater supply, the City of Renton has established
an aquifer protection zone (Renton Municipal Code 4-3-050). The Site is located outside this
zone (Figure 3.3-3).
A search of well records and water right certificates and permits was conducted to identify
any possible water supply uses within a half mile of the Site, either from a groundwater
source or Lake Washington. Table 3.3-1 provides well construction information available for
water wells listed in the Ecology Well Logs database. As illustrated on Figure 3.1-4, these
wells are completed in aquifers above the Site and cannot be impacted by Site contamination.
A search of the Water Rights Tracking System identified two certificates for Lake
Washington and no groundwater certificates or permits. The certificates for Lake
Washington were for J.H. Baxter to the north and Bellevue Sewer District for industrial
sanitation use.
Lake Washington is no longer available for consumptive appropriation as it was closed in
1979 to further withdrawals by Chapter 173-508 WAC. It is highly unlikely that Lake
Washington water will be used as drinking water in the future because of this closure.
Furthermore, any use of the surface water would require some form of treatment for

Environmental Setting
bacterial purification prior to use for drinking purposes. While Lake Washington is classified
as a Suitable Source of Water Supply under Chapter l 73-201A WAC, it is not currently used
as such and is highly unlikely to be used as such in the future.
The surrounding community is serviced by public water systems, which have sources outside
the Site area. The use of private wells in the area is limited and these wells are located
upgradient of the Site. In accordance with the King County Comprehensive Plan, individual
private water supply wells will not be permitted within municipal water supply service area
boundaries, which include the Site.
