Clark,
My apologizes. I sent you comments yesterday but they bounced back because I had miss-typed your email address.
Unfortunately, I didn’t know this until this AM because the bounce back email notice was in my quarantined emails which
didn’t get released until this AM. Anyway, here are the comments I tried to send yesterday:
We have reviewed the Park Avenue North Extension project referenced above and offer the following comments:
1. Additional information is needed to demonstrate that this project is not affected any portions of Johns Creek, either
piped or open channel. The stream was not clearly shown on any of the project figures, site plans, or those figures in the
Technical Information Report.
2. As shown the project will be discharging treated stormwater to the PSE channel that drains directly to southern Lake
Washington at the Southport bulkhead. Per the TIR, the project intends to treat the stormwater using basic treatment
methods. Given the location of the outfall immediate adjacent to the nearshore area of Lake Washington used by
juvenile Chinook and other salmon, the project should be treated its stormwater using "enhanced" treatment methods
removing metals and oils in the stormwater to the fullest extent possible to minimize impacts to salmon in the nearshore
area of Lake Washington.
We appreciate the opportunity to review this proposal and look forward to the City of Renton's responses.
Thank you,
