Mr. Gilroy’s materials of concern are soil and topsoil, which are materials our design does not include. Attached is the response we sent to Mr. Gilroy’s comment during SEPA. Thanks!

Do not click links or open attachments unless you know the content is safe.] Good afternoon, Mr. Close. I represent Gilroy Family, LLC, the owner of property the west of, and immediately adjacent to, the King County Parks Renton Shop. This letter is in response to the issuance of a notice of application by the City, file number PR19-000190 King County Parks - Renton Shop / LUA19-00090. We submitted formal comment in response to the applicants SEPA notice. We are submitting similar information again here with the goal of informing the City’s permit review processes. Primarily, we are concerned with the proposed ecology block material storage bins along the west boundary of the project site, specifically with regard to any topsoil or dirt that may be stored in these bins. It is our experience with such storage areas that they generate a fair amount of dust in the warm, drier summer months. This dust can blow onto ours and other neighboring properties and create a nuisance. In my previous conversations with the applicant, she indicated that they would look into the exact materials planned to be stored in these bins. She also indicated the County would determine if those materials are prone to becoming airborne and mitigate for such. I was not able to find any such details or proposed mitigation on the applicant’s submittal materials. We ask the City and the applicant to furnish such information. And, if soil storage is a possibility, please consider the option of installing a fabric-lined fence atop the ecology block storage bins to screen dust. Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

Thank you so much for you prompt response to our comments. You make a good point regarding the existing gravel paving that will be replaced with asphalt. We agree this will mitigate dust and improve current conditions. We appreciate your attention to our comments regarding stored materials in the ecology block bins. I ask the County also consider the option of installing a fabric-lined fence atop the ecology block walls to screen dust. Patrick J.

This is a great comment. Since the existing site is paved with gravel some of the dust created during the summer dry months is from vehicle traffic on the gravel. This project is proposing to pave the fleet vehicle yard areas and staff parking areas. Paving these areas will mitigate dust that is presently created by vehicles moving on the gravel surface. The plans we have do not indicate soil storage in the bins. We will take a close look at the materials planned to be stored, and determine if those types of materials are prone to becoming airborne, and design accordingly to mitigate. If the materials are prone to dust generation, the options we would consider include, but are not limited to, wetting the stored material with water or covering the stored material. If there are additional questions, please contact me. Please note - I’ll be out of the office from Dec 21-Jan 1.

This letter is in response to the issuance of a SEPA determination of non-significance for the above-mentioned project, regarding which we have some concerns. Primarily, we are concerned with the proposed “ecology block storage bins” along the “north and west boundaries” included in the proposal description, specifically with regard to any topsoil or dirt that may be stored in these bins. It is our experience with such storage areas that they generate a fair amount of dust in the warm, drier summer months. This dust can blow onto ours and other neighboring properties and create a nuisance. We would like to know what measures the County proposes to take to reduce the amount of dust and debris emanating from these storage areas, and how it plans to minimize the effects of this debris transfer onto our property. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this proposal. If you would like to contact me to further discuss this matter, I can be reached at (425) 444-1726, or via email at dick@stor- house.com.
