From the summer of2015 to early 2016, the Public Works Department is proposing to improve approximately 2,300 feet of Logan Ave N from the Cedar River Bridge to N 6'h Street by repaving, adding or replacing sidewalks, adding planters, ADA compliant curb ramps, modifying street crossings, installing illumination, and stormwater upgrades. The intersection at N 3rd Street will be reconfigured to include a more traditional four-way signalized intersection and allow for left turns onto 3"' Street from the southbound direction on Logan Ave. Currently access is only provided for northbound travelers on Logan Ave. See attached vicinity map. The project is valued at $7,400,000 and is expected to cost $5,096,000 to construct. The surrounding properties in the project area are zoned as light industrial and urban center. According to USDA-NCSS soil survey data the whole site is comprised of Urbana soil, which is classified as a type C soil by the Washington Department of Ecology. The area is highly developed and there are no critical areas within or adjacent to the project other than the Cedar River. The Cedar River is located at the southern end of the project. The only work that will occur over the river is pavement marking on the existing bridge. There will be no in-water work and therefore the project does not have the potential to impact aquatic habitats. There are no other waterbodies within or immediately adjacent to project limits. Groundwater is estimated to be approximately 9.5 -13.5 feet below ground surface, according to borings done just south ofN 6'h Street for the South Lake Washington Roadway Improvements project in 2006. Stormwater will be conveyed to the existing outfall at the Cedar River and the project will not result in any changes to the outfall. The project will result in a net reduction of impervious surfaces (0.05 acre reduction) compared to existing conditions. The project proposes to restore the existing pavement which includes removing the existing pavement, and utilizing 185 CY of gravel borrow for fill. The project will implement appropriate standard best management practices during construction to reduce or avoid impacts on water quality. These include, but are not limited to: installation of silt fencing, straw wattle, inlet protection; and implementation of a spill prevention control and countermeasures (SPCC) plan and stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) in accordance with the NPDES General Construction Storm water permit. All temporarily disturbed areas will be restored and landscaped upon completion. No naturally occurring trees will be removed. The project involves the removal of 42 street trees. 11 of these trees are from or adjacent to the Memorial Stadium parking lot but these do not constitute more than I 0% of the total amount of trees on that site. A total of 28 trees are located in a planter strip adjacent to Boeing property and a portion of them are within existing Boeing property, which is to be acquired by the City, and a portion is within existing City right-of-way. 3 others are street trees within existing city right-of- way. A total of 41 landscape trees will be planted along the refurbished corridor as well as other shrubs and ground covers in accordance with RMC 4-4-070. A landscape plan has been prepared. It is recommended that the project be considered Categorically Exempt under SEPA, as it meets the requirements of WAC 197-11-800(3).1 (3) Repair, remodeling and maintenance activities. The following activities shall be categorically exempt: The repair, remodeling, maintenance, or minor alteration of existing private or public structures, facilities or equipment, including utilities, recreation, and transportation facilities involving no material expansions or changes in use beyond that previously existing; except that, where undertaken wholly or in part on lands covered by water, only minor repair or replacement of structures may be exempt (examples include repair or replacement of piling, ramps,Jloats, or mooring buoys, or minor repair, alteration, or maintenance of docks). The following maintenance activities shall not be considered exempt under this subsection: (a) Dredging of over fifty cubic yards of material; (b) Reconstruction or maintenance of groins and similar shoreline protection structures; (c) Replacement of utility cables that must be buried under the surface of the bed/ands; or (d) Repair/rebuilding of major dams, dikes, and reservoirs shall also not be considered exempt under this subsection. It is also recommended that the project be exempt from the shoreline substantial development permit. The existing shoreline on the northern bank is naturalized but the surrounding land is heavily developed. On the southern side the bank has been reinforced with rip rap and is also heavily developed. The lateral distance from the OHWM is O feet. Although project limits extends over the Cedar River, the only work that will occur over the river is pavement marking as described above. Other work within shoreline jurisdiction is limited to the construction of curb and gutter, sidewalk, and pavement removal/overlay. No trees will be removed from within shoreline jurisdiction. They will be replaced with additional street trees. No naturally occurring trees will be removed. The project is exempt from further shoreline permits as it meets the requirements of item 3 of the City's Shoreline Exemption form which is: "Normal maintenance or repair of existing structure or developments" 1 http:/ apps.l~g. wa. goviwa<:/default.aspx'?cite= 197-1 1-800 This project has already received approval by FHWA under NEPA on January 21, 2015.

The proposed project is located on approximately 0.42 miles of Logan Avenue North from the Cedar River Bridge to N 6th Street within Township 23N, Range 05E, and Sections 7 and 18 in the City of Renton. Existing Conditions The project is located in a heavily developed urban and industrial area and therefore there is the potential for contamination to be encountered in the project vicinity. The surrounding areas are zoned as urban design district. The Cedar River is located at the southern end of project limits. Groundwater is estimated to be approximately 9.5 -13.5 feet below ground surface, according to borings done for the South Lake Washington Roadway Improvements project in 2006. These borings were performed on Logan Avenue N just south ofN 6th Street and are therefore representative of the current project area conditions. Groundwater is assumed to flow to the north or west. Project Description The project proposes to replace the deteriorated roadway pavement and add a planter and sidewalk to the east side of Logan Avenue N between the Cedar River and approximately the halfway point between N 4th Street and N 6th Street. Existing sidewalks will be repaired/replaced in kind. The intersection at N 3rd Street will be re-aligned to shift the right turn lane further north and reduce the curvature ofN 3rd Street. The revised intersection will allow access onto N 3rd St from southbound Logan Avenue. An additional driveway will be added to the Stadium parking lot at the Logan Ave/ N 3rd Street intersection. There will also be slight modifications to the N 4th Street intersection. It will be narrowed to provide shorter crossing distance for pedestrians. It is anticipated that an average excavation depth of 3 feet will be required for general road work while a maximum depth of JO feet will be needed for utility work. Approximately 0.03 acres of right-of-way will be required. Acquisition will not be from any properties listed as having the potential for generating contamination. Facility/Site Review A search of the Department of Ecology's (Ecology) Facility/Site map database was conducted on April I 0, 2014 to identify potential sources of contamination within a 0.5 mile radius of the project. The search consisted of sites recorded under Ecology's toxics program including voluntary cleanup sites (VCS), state cleanup sites (SCS), leaking underground storage tanks (LUST), and underground storage tanks (UST). A map of the facilities/sites is attached and they are shown in the table below. It should be noted that the points on the map may not represent the actual location of the facility. An address search was conducted to verify this and it is noted in the table. 2475 Garden Plaza Park Ave N & 0.24 mi E vcs 4/12/1994 N 61h St (point is not accurate on ma) 64745478 800 Park Ave N 0.25 mi NE 2515 Grady Youngman 523 Pelly Ave 0.19 mi E vcs 5/6/2008 N 5333122 American 505 Park Ave N 0.22 mi E UST 8/6/1996 Transmission 61722279 Renton City Park 635 Park Ave N 0.22 mi NE UST 5/3/2000 Ave (point is not accurate on ma 77423621 Renton Soc 549 Garden 0.32 mi E UST 17426998 Arco 5207 401 Park Ave N 0.24mi E ucs UST 53171211 Garys Automotive 541 Park Ave N 0.22mi E UST 5/3/2000 & Tire Inc (point is not accurate on ma 3986356 Skyway Towing 542 Park Ave N 0.24mi E UST 5/3/2000 Auto Service Center 37129956 Renton City Park 105 Williams 0.12 mi E UST 5/3/2000 Main!

All other sites are either down gradient from the project or are too far away for any contamination from them to be encountered by the project and will not be further discussed. Upon further investigation of the two sites, it was determined that one of them no longer pose a hazard as remediation has been completed. The other site is undergoing a cleanup program. They will be discussed below. 62238722-Walt's Service Center (former name) This site is located at 546 Burnett Ave N, approximately 200 feet east of project, at the northern end. It was initially reported as having a release of petroleum products and detected concentrations of metals and non-halogenated solvents in 2001. Remedial action since then has occurred under the voluntary cleanup program and was terminated in 2011 when the site received a 'No further action' status by Ecology. Contaminates have been remediated below cleanup levels. It is assumed to not have an impact on the project. 2097 -Boeing Renton This site is located at 800 N 6'h Street, at the northern end of the project. Initial reporting related to this site, according to the Ecology database, occurred in 1996. Ecology issued a remedial investigation/ feasibility study in 1997 and a cleanup action plan in 2008. It is reported as having suspected and confirmed contamination to the soil and groundwater. Contaminates listed for this site include asbestos, inorganic conventional contaminants, corrosive wastes, halogenated organics, metals, non-halogenated solvents, petroleum products, phenolic compounds, PCB, and PAH. No additional information concerning the history and cleanup status of this site is publicly available. The site is located approximately 440 feet east of the project and is separated from project activities by paved parking lots. This site is not anticipated to have an adverse impact on the project since it is several hundred feet away. However, due to the nature of the location of the project being in a heavily industrialized area (the Boeing plant and associated facilities), there is a potential to encounter contamination during construction. It is therefore recommended that all excavations in the vicinity of this site be done during the dry season to minimize encountering contaminated groundwater and reduce the potential for dewatering. Conclusion Based off of the proposed project description and construction activities, the City is unlikely to assume liability for cleanup of contaminated soil or groundwater as part of this project and it is concluded that no significant, unavoidable adverse effects that cannot be mitigated for are expected to result from this proposed project for the following reasons: No sites were identified within or immediately adjacent to the project's limits of disturbance. All sites considered to have a potential to be a source of contamination to the project corridor have been documented and discussed. Two sites were identified near the project. One of the sites has a status of 'No further action' and does not pose an impact to the project. The other site (Boeing) has suspected contamination to the groundwater and soils. It is about 440 feet away from project activities but cleanup activities and the extent of contamination is unknown. It therefore has a low potential for impacting the project. Potential effects from this site will be prevented or mitigated for by conducting any excavations in the vicinity of this site during the dry season to minimize encountering contaminated groundwater. Any contaminated media that is inadvertently discovered during construction shall be prevented from mixing with stormwater runoff and be handled, contained, tested, and disposed of in accordance with all appropriate federal, state, and local regulations. Sincerely, ;( / fvlJ2- Ross Widener Widener & Associates
