HomeMy WebLinkAboutECF_SEPA_Checklist_190916_v1Page 1 of 14 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Purpose of checklist: Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use “not applicable” or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision- making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements –that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal. A. Background 1.

No waste material will be discharged on site to groundwater. c. Water runoff (including stormwater): 1. Describe the source of runoff (including storm water) and method of collection and disposal, if any (include quantities, if known). Where will this water flow? Will this water flow into other waters? If so, describe. Stormwater runoff will be generated by primarily to hard surfaces, such as the building roof and parking areas. Small amounts of runoff may occur from landscaped areas. The site will be graded to convey all site runoff to a bioretention facility, which will provide enhanced treatment, based on the requirements of the 2016 Renton Surface Water Design Manual. All stormwater calculations, including runoff volumes and bioretention performance, are performed using MGS Flood v.4.49. Note: No groundwater recharge will occur from the bioretention, because the site is Page 6 of 14 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 located within an aquifer protection zone (Zone 1). All bioretention outflows will be conveyed to Renton’s storm drainage system for conveyance and discharge to the Cedar River. The Cedar River flows into Lake Washington. 2. Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. No waste materials will be discharged to surface waters. 3. Does the proposal alter or otherwise affect drainage patterns in the vicinity of the site? If so, describe. Drainage patterns will not be altered.

What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it mainly occur? The project is composed of a multi-story educational building with a pedestrian entry plaza, landscaping, and an adjacent surface parking lot bisected by a City of Renton alleyway. According to Renton Municipal Code: Exterior Lighting 4-4-075: Lighting on the project must “provide ample but not excessive illumination levels, promote Page 11 of 14 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 the general public health, welfare, and safety, discourage light trespass beyond the boundaries of the property on which the light is located, as well as accent key architectural elements and landscape features (Ord, 5518, 12-14- 2009). In addition, Section 4-3-100 Renton’s Urban Design Regulations state: In keeping with the stated aims of the City of Renton, the proposed exterior lighting for this project consists of: • Building mounted lighting aimed to accent architectural features. • Building mounted recessed lighting to illuminate egress entry/exits and egress pathways. • Accent lighting within architectural features of the entry plaza including curved feature walls and a central fountain. • Ground mounted low-level lighting to illuminate entry plaza egress path. • Ground mounted aimable accent lighting to highlight landscape elements. • Pole mounted lighting (25 ft total height) to provide general illumination to parking and circulation areas. Proposed interior lighting for the building will be visible from the surrounding area and is intended to highlight interior architectural features, provide a warm glow to the interior views of the building, and act as a subtle welcoming presence in the neighborhood. Both interior and exterior lighting design is intended to minimize glare, eliminate light spill onto neighboring properties, and achieve the objectives laid out by the City of Renton. Lighting that is visible to the project surroundings will be scheduled for the open hours of the building with light levels being reduced to minimum levels needed for neighborhood safety during the un-occupied hours of the building. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? Lighting for the project is being carefully and thoughtfully designed to conform to the City of Renton Exterior Lighting standards which preclude safety hazards and shall not interfere with views. Interior and exterior lighting will also be enabled with dimming control for specific area light level adjustability. Photometric calculations will be employed to ensure that glare and light spill are not present with this project. c. What existing off-site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal? The identified possible off-site light sources that may impact the CITC project are the sports lighting standards in Liberty Park across Bronson Way from the project. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any: Exterior light sources used will: • Be aimed away from property lines where necessary. • Have house-side shields if needed to maintain zero light spill onto adjoining properties. • Be aimed either straight down or angled towards the building they are mounted on to minimize or eliminate glare. • Contain spread lenses or soft-view optics to minimize glare. • Both interior and exterior lighting will be enabled with dimming control to enable specific area light level adjustability.

Are there any buildings, structures, or sites, located on or near the site that are over 45 years old listed in or eligible for listing in national, state, or local preservation registers ? If so, specifically describe. Existing building on the site is over 45 years ago and is being re-used to the greatest extent possible in the new building design. The existing building is not registered on any national, state, or local preservation registers. b. Are there any landmarks, features, or other evidence of Indian or historic use or occupation? This may include human burials or old cemeteries. Are there any material evidence, artifacts, or areas of cultural importance on or near the site? Please list any professional studies conducted at the site to identify such resources. No evidence of Indian or historic use or occupation is known to exist on the site. c. Describe the methods used to assess the potential impacts to cultural and historic resources on or near the project site. Examples include consultation with tribes and the department of archeology and historic preservation, archaeological surveys, historic maps, GIS data, etc. Not applicable. d. Proposed measures to avoid, minimize, or compensate for loss, changes to, and disturbance to resources. Please include plans for the above and any permits that may be required. Not applicable. 14. Transportation a. Identify public streets and highways serving the site or affected geographic area and describe proposed access to the existing street system. Show on site plans, if any. The site is served by Bronson Way North on the south, by Meadow Avenue North on the east, by Garden Avenue North on the west, and by North 2nd Street on the north. Additionally an existing public alley splits the property and provides access to both the renovated building and to the Page 13 of 14 SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 proposed parking facility. Conventional curb cuts are proposed for access to both the building and parking areas. Bronson Way North is Washington State Route 900, an arterial classification with direct access to Interstate 405 b. Is the site or affected geographic area currently served by public transit? If so, generally describe. If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? The site is not directly served by transit but 450’ away west along Bronson Way North (adjacent to the Public Library frontage and near Liberty Park) is a King County Metro bus stop offering several bus routes with connectivity to the City of Renton’s Transit Center, which includes a Park and Ride facility. c. How many additional parking spaces would the completed project or non-project proposal have? How many would the project or proposal eliminate? The project proposes to install 64 new parking within the east parcel’s surface parking lot. That lot today does not include any parking. On-street parking is unaffected by the proposed project. d. Will the proposal require any new or improvements to existing roads, streets, pedestrian, bicycle or state transportation facilities, not including driveways? If so, generally describe (indicate whether public or private). The project is required to replace and reconstruct new street curbs, sidewalks, landscape strips, and pavement for the half-width adjacent to the project on all fronting streets anywhere that existing street improvements are non-standard (which is the majority of the frontage). The project is also required to underground existing overhead cabling; Puget Sound Energy, CenturyLink, and Comcast have all claimed existing overhead facilities, and those cables are proposed to be installed underground in conduit, duct banks, and vaults as part of this project’s scope of work. e. Will the project or proposal use (or occur in the immediate vicinity of) water, rail, or air transportation? If so, generally describe. No impact. f. How many vehicular trips per day would be generated by the completed project or proposal? If known, indicate when peak volumes would occur and what percentage of the volume would be trucks (such as commercial and nonpassenger vehicles). What data or transportation models were used to make these estimates? The project is replacing an existing auto parts and service facility. Trip generation studies for that auto facility concluded that the auto facility was likely to have produced 536 daily trips, including 65 AM Peak-Hour and 74 PM Peak Hour trips. The new site use (the CITC project) is likely to produce 226 daily trips, including 22 AM Peak-Hour and 22 PM Peak Hour trips. Therefore, the project results in a large decrease of traffic volume. As an educational facility, minimal trucks would be accessing the site. Trip generation rates are calculated based on the Institute of Traffic Engineer’s Land Use Code 943 and analysis of a similar CITC site located in Marysville, Washington. g. Will the proposal interfere with, affect or be affected by the movement of agricultural and forest products on roads or streets in the area? If so, generally describe. No impact. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any: The adjacency of the project to the extensive King County Metro transit facilities is intended to reduce single passenger vehicle trips.
