BACKGROUND EA C MEETING DATE February 9, 1999 Prc ject Name City of Renton 1998 Long Range WasteWater Management Plan Ap,)licant City of Renton WasteWater Utility (David Christensen) FiI€ Number LUA-099-002, ECF Prc fed Manager Jennifer Toth Henning Prc ject Description The City of Renton proposes to adopt a Long Range WasteWater Management Plan which addresses policies, criteria and recommendations needed to construct, maintain and manage the City's WasteWater Utility for full build-out under the current Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The plan is intended as a guide for the maintenance and improvement of the sanitary sewer system over the next 6 years in order to provide the Renton Service Area with an effective, safe and reliable sewer system. The proposal updates the long-range wastewater management plan adopted in 1992. It results from an evaluation of the existing sanitary sewer system and recommendations to resolve existing deficiencies and concerns and to accommodate growth. Improvements specified in the plan are based on requirements of the Washington State Department of Health, the Washington State Department of Ecology, the King County Comprehensive Plan, and the City of Renton Comprehensive Plan. The system is large, consisting of approximately 167 miles of gravity sewer, 21 sewage lift stations and force mains, and approximately 3,700 manholes. WasteWater is discharged to the Metro/King County system at 67 locations within the City's service area, from which it is conveyed to and treated at Metro/King County Treatment Plant. Individual projects under the WasteWater Plan would be subject to separate environmental review. Prc ject Location City-wide Ex,st. Bldg. Area gsf Not applicable Proposed New Bldg.

RECOMMENDATION Based on analysis of probable impacts from the proposal, staff recommend that the Responsible Officials make the following Environmental Determination: X DETERMINATION OF DETERMINATION OF NON-SIGNIFICANCE NON-SIGNIFICANCE-MITIGATED. X Issue DNS with 14 day Appeal Period. Issue DNS-M with 14 day Appeal Period. Issue DNS-M with 15 day Comment Period followed by a 14 day Appeal Period. C. MITIGATION MEASURES None recommended. Advi:;ory Notes to Applicant: The following notes are supplemental information provided in conjunction with the environmental determination. Because these notes are provided as information only, they are not subject to the appeal proci'ss for environmental determinations. 1. Staff have indicated that site specific impacts and mitigation would be addressed during the subsequent and indivi lual project review. D. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS In compliance with RCW 43.21 C. 240, the following project environmental review addresses only those project impacts that are not adequately addressed under existing development standards and environmental regulations. 1. Earth Impacts: Construction or replacement of proposed system facilities would require grading and excavation. Much of the excavation associated with system expansion, upgrades, or decommissioning would occur within City right-of- ways. Some facilities would be constructed in steep slope or greenbelt areas when no other feasible alternative is available. City Code prohibits development in greenbelts on slopes greater than 40%, however, utilities are permitted subject to the granting of a Condtional Use Permit. In addition, no clearing is allowed on slopes greater than 40% or within 25 feet of creeks or wetlands. Utilities constructed on steep slopes are exempt from the steep slope restrictions. Utilities within wetland buffers are permitted. In some instances, a Conditional Use Permit or Variance is required for utility proposals in environmentally sensitive areas. The proposed WasteWater System plan does not specify the potential impacts or alternative placement of these facilit es. However, separate environmental review would be accomplished for individual projects that implement the plan. Standard construction methods and best management practices would be employed to diminish or eliminate erosion or sedimentation that could occur. City Code requires that construction mitigation be inherent in projects. For example, any construction would need to comply with the City's drainage and erosion control requirements. ERCRF'T.DOC City of Renton PB/PW Department Envi ental Review Committee Staff Report • CITY OF RENTON 1998 LONG RANGE WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN LUA-99-002,ECF REPORT AND DECISION OF February 9,1999 Page3 of 3 Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation needed. Nexus: Not applicable. 2. Surface Water Impacts: Some of the improvements would be constructed near water bodies, including wetlands. Environmental Review, a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit or Shoreline Permit Exemption would be needed for some improvements proposed. Permits from other agencies such as the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife may also be required. The WasteWater Comprehensive Plan is general and does not give exact locations or expected impacts from the proposed improvements. Since this is programmatic document, specific project-level impacts can not be evaluated at this time. Separate project-level environmental review would be accomplished for individual projects. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation needed. Nexus: Not applicable. 3. Transportation Impacts: Proposed construction of system improvements and upgrades would require work within the public right-of- ways. During construction traffic flow could be disrupted or slowed. City Code requires construction mitigation plans including traffic control plans. Since this is a programmatic document, and the timing of individual projects cannot be predicted at this time, specific project-level environmental review would be accomplished for individual projects. Mitigation Measures: No further mitigation needed. Nexus: Not applicable. E. COMMENTS OF REVIEWING DEPARTMENTS The proposal has been circulated to City Departmental/Divisional Reviewers for their review. Where applicable, these comments have been incorporated into the text of this report as Mitigation Measures and/or Notes to Applicant. X Copies of all Review Comments are contained in the Official File. Copies of all Review Comments are attached to this report. Environmental Determination Appeal Process Appeals of the environmental determination must be filed in writing on or before 5:00 PM March 1, 1999.

ERCRPT.DOC 1 e M1 Y .....:ter DEVELOPMENT PLANNING 10415 -- 147th Avenue SE CITY OF RENTON Renton, WA 98059 JAN 2 6 1999 January 23, 1999 RECEIVED Ms. Jennifer Toth Henning, Project Manager Development Services Division City of Renton 1055 South Grady Way Renton, WA 98055 Dear Ms. Henning: Re: Long-Range Wastewater Plan I 'vould like to submit these comments for the SEPA Review of Renton's 1998 Long Range Wastewater N anagement Plan. Ir Appendix C, the SEPA Checklist it states that environmental reviews of individual project will be done. It also states that Renton intends to provide sewer service to the East Renton Plateau area. That has not yi't been decided and until King County has made that decision, that particular sentence should not be in (Page 2 -- SEPA Checklist--item 9 and item 12). Ir the whole document, it only talks about Renton. It does not talk about the PAA areas outside Renton C ty Limits which Renton wants to provide service. It does not talk about general descriptions of the area E 1st of Renton -- in King County; it does not talk about the bluff area above Cedar River to the north of the ri'"er. It does not talk about the steep slopes from the bluff area down to Cedar River. It does not specifically talk about the May Creek Basin area. It does not talk about the environment of the areas in the E ist Maplewood area. U ider Part f, Section B, it talks about erosion. The answer given talks about "Standard erosion control reasures will minimize any impact...." What are the standard erosion control measures that Renton uses? I have seen a new development (Stonegate)go in, and very little erosion control measures were used. T us development is in Renton City Limits. In that particular development, Renton didn't seem to care al)out erosion control measures unless brought to task. Under Section 3, Water(a)it lists only streams and river within the City Limits. If the City of Renton intends this to be a complete document, then it also needs to list all the wetlands, streams outside the City Limits located in the East Plateau. Many large pieces of property located in this area have wetlands. Why haven't they been listed?There are also a number of streams located within this area that have not been identified. Some of this area is located with the May Creek Basin Plan --which Renton is a party too. I know of a stream within the PAA that is not listed --Greenes Stream. In Volume 2 -- East Maplewood Area, the maps show many streams flowing into the Cedar River. What are the names of these streams and how come they haven't been listed in the listing of streams and wetlands? Where do they flow? O i page 6 of the SEPA report, item 5, it asks if the area lies within the 100-year flood plain. The area of the May Valley Prezone I area lies close to May Creek--which floods over 148th Avenue SE every winter. U ider Section 4, page 8 (a), pasture land is not checked and should be. Again, within the East Renton Plateau area, a large number of area are now pasture land. Urider Section 5, part c, May Creek Basin is also a salmon migration route. Every Spring, Renton School District students plant salmon fry into May Creek at Honey Creek and in Newcastle. The May Creek Basin a'ea needs to be included in this area also. Under Section 8, (d), is asks "Will any structures be demolished?" In one map showing proposed Renton sewer lines and a developer's lines, 3 houses will have to be demolished. Again, these homes are lc cated in the May Valley Prezone I area. How come they are not listed? The total project's impacts s could be noted -- not just anticipated and studied in future SEPA reports. Under Section 8, (h), it talks about environmentally sensitive areas. Again, what about the areas in the East Maplewood area that have streams running through them? What about Greenes Stream? I have s msitive areas in my yard which I can't touch without having the necessary permits for(like HPA, permits fr)m King County). Why aren't they listed? What about the May Creek Basin Plan? Has that been a:counted for in the planning? What about the "Current and Future Conditions Report? Has Renton e ren taken a look at that report? Under Part 9-- Housing, (b), again what about the 2-3 houses that will be eliminated if Renton uses its 1997 Preliminary Map in the May Valley Prezone Area I. Why doesn't Renton want to mention these? Ir Part 12, Recreation (a), it list various play fields, among those Renton School District (play fields). Why d)esn't the report list Issaquah School District(play fields)in the PAA area? Especially if they are doing tf e SEPA for the entire area of this report? U ider Part 13, Transportation, why isn't 148th Avenue SE and Coal Creek Parkway listed as major streets it the area? Under part (b), transit is not available to the entire area--especially on the East Renton P ateau area. There are many areas not served by transit. Why limit the report to just Renton? H)w much damage will occur to SE 128th in order to provide sewer hook ups to major developments planned in that area? How come this was not addressed in the SEPA plan? What will be done to protect the environment from a sewage spill? What will happen in these pipes cross tl a various streams that are out here? What will happen downstream --like to the fish? How will the City crake sure that cheap pipes are not used? In the Stonegate Development, in the Summer of 1998, raw sewage backed up into a home(near May Creek). When it was fixed, it was determined that the developer h,id used cheap pipes. How often is the inspection of pipes/laying of pipes? I hope that Renton revises its plan and goes back to include all the areas listed in the document, that is the P NA areas. Since time is of the essence, I will be submitting this now and then include these comments la!:er to Dave Christensen and King County. Sincerely, Claudia R. Donnelly CITY OF RENTON PLANNING/BUILDING/PUBLIC WORKS MEMORANDUM DATE: 02/04/99 TO: Jennifer Henning FROM: Mike Benoit Nam' SUBJECT: 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan We have revised the environmental checklist to provide supplemental information based upon Ms. Donnelly's letter of January 23, 1999. In response to her concerns about the following sections: Section A,Item 8: We revised this section to include reference to the Plan DEIS,FEIS,and SEIS for the City's Comprehensive Plan and Water District 90's proposed 1998 Comprehensive Sewer Plan. Section A,Items 9& 12: The operative words in both of these responses are"...Renton intends to provide service...". Ms. Donnelly is correct that King County has not made the decision. However, if we do not state our intent,King County would have nothing to make a decision about. It is stated in Item 10 that this is one of the approvals to be made. Section B,Item la: We have revised the response for clarification in response to Ms. Donnelly's concerns. See comment on Section B,Item ld below. Section B, Item lb: The term Renton planning area would include the unincorporated area. For clarity we have revised the response to refer to the proposed service area. Section B,Item Id: This response refers to the bluffs and bordering steep slopes in Renton and the surrounding area. The area"east of Renton"would be part of the surrounding area. However,we have revised the response to refer to the proposed service area. Section B,Item If: In response to the question of"what are the standard erosion control measures that Renton uses",I refer Ms.Donnelly to Item h of the same section. Item `h' identifies the City's adoption of the King County Surface Water Manual and the King County Erosion Standards as the proposed criteria to reduce or control erosion or other impacts to the earth. Section B,Item 3a: We have re-written the response to B.a.1 in an effort to clarify the section. We have only listed the names of the classified streams and of wetlands over 20 acres in size. To identify every stream and wetland by name for a non-project action would not be practical or useful. We have added language that identifies the non-classified streams as tributaries and identifies that there are approximately 50 wetlands in the proposed service area.As specific projects are developed, the SEPA review will take a closer look at the streams and wetland affected by the project. Section B,Item 5a5: It is our opinion that the original language covered the potential of projects located in a 100-year flood plan. It is possible that our grammatical error in stating"the 100-year flood plain" was confusing: We have re-written in an attempt to clarify our response. E:\96_COMP\Sepa98b.doc\mab Section B,Item 4a: We were in error in not checking pasture and have revised that section to include it. Section B,Item 5c: We have added language that identifies the May Creek Basin as a fish migratory route. Section B,Item 8d: The projects listed in this plan are conceptual. Routing is not identified to a level that would identify the need to demolish structures. Our response accurately states that if a structure must be demolished,it will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. The map that Ms. Donnelly is referring to is a schematic layout of potential sewer routes based upon topography. It is not a part of the sewer plan. It includes multiple routing options. Final routing would be based upon design engineering practices. Removal of an existing house for the installation of a sewer would be considered a negative impact and would be avoided if other viable options existed. A project's impact will be discussed as part of the SEPA submittal for the specific project. Discussion of impacts prior to an actual routing study would not be feasible. Section B,Item 8h: This section identifies that there are environmentally sensitive areas within the proposed service area. Since we did not list any specifically,we do not understand the assumption that we left out the East Maplewood area. We revised the language to reference the City's Critical Areas Inventory and King County's Sensitive Areas Map Folio. Section B,Item 9b: See response for Section B,Item 8d. Section B,Item 12a: We have revised this section to include Issaquah School District play fields. Section B,Item 13a: Only major transportation corridors are listed. We did not list any arterials,city streets, or local access roads either inside the City or in the county. For a non-project submittal, listing all of the arterials,city streets,or local access roads would not be necessary or practical. Section B, Item 13b: We have revised the response to better reflect the status of transit in the entire service area.

PURPOSE OF PLAN The purpose of the Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (the plan) is to present policy and design criteria and to recommend facility improvements. This plan will be used as a guide in maintaining and improving the sanitary sewer system over the next six years in order to provide the Renton Sewer Service Area with an effective, safe and reliable sewer system. While this plan is an update to the Long- Range Wastewater Management Plan adopted in 1992; it is a complete re-evaluation of the entire sanitary sewer system and a stand-alone document, not a supplement. A summary of this plan's findings and recommendations are presented in this chapter. The plan results from an evaluation of the existing sanitary sewer system and recommendations to resolve existing deficiencies and concerns,and to accommodate growth. The improvements identified in this plan are based on the requirements of the Washington State Department of Health,Washington State Department of Ecology, King County Comprehensive Plan,and City Comprehensive Plan. The City of Renton adopted its last Long Range Wastewater Management plan in 1992. That plan anticipated growth in the system and proposed improvements. The plan also attempted to address concerns for groundwater protection, significant increases in construction cost, and increases in land use densities.These issues,again,as well as others are examined in detail in this plan. The Renton sanitary sewer system is large, and because of the topography, complex in its operation. The condition of the current system, as well as the need for improvements, has been documented in this report. Due to the complexity of this system and the number of issues that must be addressed, this report is organized so that a reader may review a summary of it and its recommendations in this chapter without reading the background or detailed information that led to those results. The plan provides a recognized framework for making decisions about sanitary sewer service in the City of Renton and within Renton's Potential Annexation Area. It is intended to aid decision-makers as well as users, including the Wastewater Utility, City Council members, the Mayor and staff, builders, developers, community groups, and other government agencies. The plan will be a useful tool in the following ways: • As a framework for improvements and operations that govern sanitary sewer system developments in the Renton wastewater utility service area. The plan provides a basis for allocating improvements and costs to new sanitary sewer system users such as home and apartment builders, and commercial developers. It thus provides officials with partial direction for approving building permits and upgrading the system. • To provide a guideline for improving the existing system so that each customer receives adequate sanitary sewer service. It is intended that City officials be able to use these guidelines to maintain a high quality of service at a reasonable cost. • To provide a basis for accommodating changes that occur but that cannot be forecast in the plan. To this end, the plan lists policy issues and operational criteria that can be used to develop alternatives and directions for development, imp eeata and operations.v0 PMENT CITY OF RENTON JAN 0 6 1999 12/28/98 RECEIVED 1-1 • CHAPTER ONE B. NEED TO UPDATE This update to Renton's Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan is inspired by the need to provide constant evaluation of our sewer system and operating policies in order to meet the needs of the customers and to ensure compatibility with the City and County's Comprehensive plans. This updated plan is prepared in conformance with Chapter 173-240 WAC. C. SCOPE OF STUDY The scope of study includes the following: • Analyze the existing system to determine its deficiencies and needed improvements. • Document City Council policies regarding growth and service areas. • Coordinate plan with adjacent utility systems and identify areas for potential service area boundary adjustments. • Estimate wastewater flow rates using land use designations. • Prepare a Capital Improvement Program and estimate its construction costs. • Document, in summary form, the existing operations and maintenance program and recommend improvements and staff additions. • Analyze the recent financial performance of the sewer utility and develop a financial operating projection statement. D. EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM The City of Renton owns, operates, and maintains its sanitary sewer system. This system consists of approximately 167 miles of gravity sewer, 21 sewage lift stations and force mains, and approximately 3700 manholes. Wastewater is discharged to King County facilities at 67 locations within the City Service Area from which it is conveyed to and treated by King County's Renton Treatment Plant. The existing sanitary sewer system is shown on FIGURE 1. The City of Renton Service Area is divided into seven major wastewater collection basins, each of which consists of one or more subbasins. These wastewater collection basins are shown on FIGURES 1 and 2. For the most part, these collection basins and subbasins follow the natural drainage patterns of the Renton service area. For the purposes of this plan, areas that are pumped are included within the basin they are pumped to. This is a modification from the last plan, where basins were drawn related to topography. 1-2 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION E. POLICIES AND DESIGN CRITERIA Policies, design criteria, and standards used for planning and operating the sanitary sewer system are based on laws and policies that originate from several sources. All these policies and standards have the general purpose of providing an acceptable level of service to the sanitary sewer customers. Policies presented in this plan include the following: customer service policies, financial policies, facility policies, and organizational policies. Analysis and design criteria for the sanitary sewer system are based on standards presented in the Criteria for Sewage Works Design prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology as well as standards set by King County Department of Natural Resources - Wastewater Treatment Division and the City of Renton. F. LAND USE AND ADJACENT SYSTEMS The land use proposed in the City's 1995 Comprehensive Land Use Plan was used to estimate wastewater flow rates at saturation conditions within the City. For portions of the service area outside the current City Limits, both the County's existing land use and the City's proposed land use were used for evaluation. These saturation wastewater flow rates were used to analyze existing sewage facilities and to plan for the location and sizing of new sewage facilities. Existing land use designations are shown on FIGURE 5. There are several adjacent utility systems surrounding the City's existing service area, which limit the expansion of the City's sewer system. The greatest potential for expansion of the City's sanitary sewer system is within the May Valley, Skyway and East Renton areas that currently either do not have existing or adequate sanitary sewer facilities. The adjacent utility entities are shown on FIGURE 7. G. KEY ISSUES • • This plan addresses the following key issues: • Excessive infiltration and inflow. • Extension of sanitary sewer service areas. • Aquifer protection and exfiltration from sanitary sewers. • Sewer system deficiencies including hydraulic constraints, substandard facilities, and replacement of old pipes. Several of these issues were also addressed during preparations of the 1983 Comprehensive Sewer Plan and again in the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan. H. SYSTEM ANALYSIS A hydraulic and a structural analysis were conducted to determine how well the existing system achieved current policies and technical,engineering standards. The plan identifies where the system failed to meet those objectives and recommends improvements to the existing system or construction of new facilities to achieve them. 12/28/98 1-3 CHAPTER ONE A hydraulic analysis is a computer simulation of the existing system to determine its ability to convey wastewater at saturation flow rates. The Wastewater Utility's computer model was used to analyze the system and to size future facilities. This model was developed for the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan and updated with the 1995 Inflow and Infiltration Study flow monitoring data. This computer model will continue to be used by the City as an analytical, planning and management tool. A structural analysis, which is a visual inspection of the existing system, was also conducted and was based on video, as well as actual,physical inspections. The analysis revealed deficiencies that cover a broad range of areas. The hydraulic deficiencies identified are inadequate slopes (inability to achieve carrying velocities), insufficient capacity to handle wastewater flow rates, pipes that are less than 8-inches in diameter and sections that have reverse slopes. Structural deficiencies identified are pipe sag, and root and grease problems. The Renton sewer system has these hydraulic and structural problems in varying degrees throughout the system. I. SEPA A SEPA Checklist has been prepared for this plan and is presented in Appendix C. It is anticipated that this proposed plan will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment and that an environmental impact statement (EIS) will not be required. However, many of the projects proposed herein will require SEPA checklists and some may require an environmental impact statement. J. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS In the development of this plan,the following conclusions were reached: 1. A substantial percentage of the system has reached the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced. The areas of highest concern that should be given highest priority for evaluation for replacement are: Windsor Hills, North Highlands, South Highlands, Earlington,Renton Hill,Downtown,Talbot Hill,West Hill, and Sunset(Honeydew). 2 The City needs to continue to perform detailed testing to obtain better engineering information regarding the operation and hydraulic behavior of the system. Specifically, this should include a continued investigation for Inflow and Infiltration through flow monitoring and video inspection. 3. Where the City annexes an area that is currently unsewered by another municipality, the City should provide sewer service. Where annexation occurs and sewer service is provided by another municipality, the City should determine whether to purchase the facilities from the adjacent municipality, or to continue to allow the existing agency to provide service. Purchase of facilities should be based on the actual depreciated cost the municipality incurred from providing the facilities to obtain service. 4. The rate increases recommended in this plan should be considered an estimate to implement the City-funded portion of all the recommended improvements. Currently, new development pays a major portion of the remaining cost of recommended improvements. If funding from this source, such as the System Development Charge, is not available, the City's share of these construction costs will most likely increase. It 1-4 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION should also be recognized that this plan does not establish annual CIP programs or sewer rates, but rather provides a roadmap and guideline for the operation of the system. Yearly CIP programs and sewer rates are established as part of the budget process. 5. The City's sewer system is complicated; the preceding conclusions and recommendations are based on the highest priority issues. We propose a substantial number of additional recommended facility improvements and modifications that are further described in Chapter VI. When we assigned them priorities, we took into consideration the following characteristics: a. Whether a facility is structurally deteriorating or has hydraulic capacity problems. b. Whether an improvement increases overall efficiency by reducing operation and maintenance costs. c. Whether an improvement helps protect the environment or reduces a threat to public health. K. SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS The following is a summary of proposed improvements to the Renton sanitary sewer system, presented in this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan, to correct existing facility deficiencies and to accommodate growth. 1. Adopt this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan in order to establish consistent City policies and to provide the capability of efficiently planning the sanitary sewer.facility improvements. This plan should be updated at intervals of no greater than six years in order to accommodate unforeseen changes in existing assumptions and conditions, and for adjusting budgets and sewer service rates. 2. Replace aging and substandard sanitary sewer facilities within the City. These sewers present a significant potential danger to the environment and public health. 3. Continue development of the gravity sewer system in order to allow the elimination of existing sewage lift stations. These lift stations are less reliable, require higher maintenance and operations costs and cause more adverse impacts to downstream facilities than do properly planned gravity sewer systems. 4. Rehabilitate or replace the sewage lift stations that are considered to be permanent sewage facilities. These improvements will reduce maintenance costs and increase system reliability. 5. Examine programs and projects that will reduce wastewater flow rates and infiltration and inflow within the sanitary sewer system. These may be cost-effective methods that could possibly reduce the size of sanitary sewer facilities, thereby reducing capital expenditures. 12/28/98 1-5 CHAPTER ONE 6. Implement sanitary sewer rate that will adequately finance capital improvement costs as well as operation and maintenance costs in accordance with the utility rate study. L. IMPLEMENTATION In 1990 the Washington State Legislature enacted the Growth Management Act(ESHB 2929) in order to preserve the environment and quality of life while providing for economic growth. This act requires cities and counties in the populated regions of the state to develop coordinated comprehensive plans that will identify areas where urban growth is appropriate and provide necessary transportation and utility improvements to them. The adoption of the plan is the Wastewater Utility's on-going fulfillment of the requirements of the Growth Management Act. The majority of this document presents information that will be the foundation for the Wastewater Utility plans for the future of the system. This information includes a general overview of the existing sewer system and a definition of terms; a presentation of specific policies that guide the management and operation of the sewer system; an examination of the operation and maintenance programs for the utility; and a description and analysis of all components in the existing system with recommended improvements. These items are specifically directed toward the effective and efficient operation of the utility. The first phase of this plan presents a snapshot of land use under current land use policies. It examines the current land use plan adopted in 1995,uses those designations to develop the saturation flow rates for the model, and establishes an operational plan to allow for the development of those land uses. It is important that this step is accomplished as any loans or grants we receive will be based on this information. As part of this process, the Wastewater Utility's goal is to accomplish, pursuant to adoption of this plan, the following implementation tasks: A. Update the financial models in a manner consistent with the City's budget schedule, so that rates can be adopted to accurately reflect the current financial situation within the utility. These models were developed during the development of the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan based upon data provided in the 1989 rate management analysis (Water and Wastewater Rates Management Analysis, RH2 Engineering P.S., November 1989). The model was updated as part of the rate study adopted in 1994 (Comprehensive Rate Study, Water Wastewater, and Surface Water Utilities, Economic and Engineering Services, Inc., January 1994). B. Complete the inventory of the sewer system, verifying the as-built records and gathering data on those parts of the system that are not recorded. C. Continue to implement a program to meter flows in order to gather data to calibrate the sanitary sewer computer model. D. Use the sewer model to develop a timetable of availability for sewers in unsewered portions of the City and the Potential Annexation Areas adopted by the City. 1-6 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION E. Prepare an update to the 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan as necessary, to incorporate the new adopted land use designations F. Update the sewer model, if necessary, to reflect the new adopted land use designations and concurrency standards. M. HOW TO USE THIS PLAN This plan is arranged in eight major sections: Chapter I provides a summary of the recommendations and conclusions presented in this plan. Chapter II provides a general overview of the existing sewer system and a definition of terms. Chapter III presents specific policies that guide the operation of the sewer system. Chapter IV examines the land use policies that guide how the City of Renton accommodates growth and presents the land uses, joint use agreements and design criteria that were used to develop wastewater saturation flow rates on which the computer hydraulic analysis was based. Chapter V describes and analyzes all components in the existing system and presents their recommended improvements. Chapter VI further describes the improvements necessary to resolve existing deficiencies and accommodate growth. The proposed improvements are also listed by priority and by project type. Chapter VII examines the operation and maintenance programs for the Wastewater Utility: Chapter VIII presents the costs of the proposed improvements and the anticipated user increases which will be necessary to support them. 12/28/98 1-7 CITY OF RENTON DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIVISION ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST: The State Environmental Policy Act(SEPA), Chapter 43.21C RCW, requires all governmental agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or"does not apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you. 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. USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NONPROJECT PROPOSALS: Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans and programs), the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively. 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist A.

Agency requesting checklist: City of Renton 6. Proposed timing or schedule (including phasing, if applicable): The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan addresses the policies, criteria, and recommendations needed to construct, maintain, and manage a wastewater utility for full land use development (saturation) under current comprehensive land use plans. That level of development will likely occur by the year 2040. This Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan will be adopted in early 1999. It will be further supplemented or updated on a regular basis or more often if needed. 7. Do you have any plans for future additions, expansion, or further activity related to or connected with this proposal? If yes, explain. Yes, the City plans to supplement or update the Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan on a regular basis or more often if needed. This study recommends that the plan be updated in 2004. 8. List any environmental information you know about that has been prepared, or will be prepared, directly related to this proposal. The City of Renton has completed, for its Comprehensive Plan, a DEIS (1992), an FEIS (1993), and an SEIS (1995). In 1998, King County Water District 90 prepared an environmental checklist for their proposed 1998 Comprehensive Sewer System Plan. Each of the projects identified by this plan is subject to SEPA regulations. Depending on the scope of project, each will have its own environmental checklist and determination which would be completed as specific projects are proposed for construction. 9. Do you know whether applications are pending for governmental approvals of other proposals directly affecting the property covered by your proposal? If yes, explain. Several individual projects within the area covered by this proposal are pending SEPA approval. King County Water District # 90 has prepared a Draft 1998 Comprehensive E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -2- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewa,.. „Aanagement Plan Environmental Checklist Sewer Plan. With this plan they are proposing to become a Sewer service provider within Renton's Urban Growth Area. This area is included in the Renton plan as an area we intend to provide sewer service to. 10. List any governmental approvals or permits that will be needed for your proposal, if known. The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan will need to be approved by the Renton City Council and the Washington State Department of Ecology. The King County Utilities Technical Review Committee (UTRC) will review the plan and make recommendations to the Executive and County Council as to the consistency of such items with adopted county policies and codes. King County will review and approve franchises to allow the construction of sewer facilities in county rights-of-way. 11. Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the project and site. The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan addresses policies, criteria, assumptions and recommendations for the City's planning area. The major purpose of the Plan is to provide a long range plan for facility improvements necessary to serve the estimated population at saturation. The Plan addresses facility reliability, public health, groundwater and environmental protection, operation and maintenance, and financing issues. The plan also addresses the need to expand Renton's sewer service area into its Urban Growth Area as the appropriate provider of the urban service per the King County Countywide Planning Policies. This checklist does not address the specific projects addressed in the five year capital improvement program. This is a programmatic checklist and does not address any site specific conditions. These conditions as well as the associated impacts will be discussed in the SEPA reviews of each project. 12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist. The area covered by this comprehensive sewer system plan is the sewer service area as shown in Figure 6. Renton has entered into boundary agreements with most of the sewer service providers adjacent to the City. These service boundaries are established and are not generally altered by annexations. Per the Countywide Planning Policies, Renton intends to provide sewer service to the portion of our Potential Annexation Area that receives water service from Water District#90. B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS 1. EARTH a. General description of the site (circle one); flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other The forces of glaciation during the last million years fundamentally shaped the geologic characteristics of the proposed service area's natural landscape. As the E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -3- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater ivlanagement Plan Environmental Checklist glaciers advanced and retreated, they deposited, compressed, and leveled the soils that formed the plateau areas to the east and west of the City, gouged out Lake Washington, and the wide, flat flood plain of the Green River Valley, and determined the original routes of the Cedar River, Green River, and May Creek. The modern result is several water courses with narrow to wide flood plains adjacent to steep banks up to rolling hilly plateaus. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope?) The proposed service area contains numerous slopes within the ranges of 15-25%, 25-40%, and greater than 40%, as a result of glacial scouring. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any prime farmland. In general, soil types are classified according to mineral composition, topography, biological activities within the soil, climate, and the length of time of soil development. The following description of four soil types (or associations) existing in the Renton area is based on the U.S. Soil Conservation Service's soil survey for King County. The Soils Map shows the four types found in the Renton area. These types are the Alderwood Association, the Oridia-Seattle-Woodinville Association, the Beausite-Alderwood Association, and the Everett Association. (Community Profile: Oct., 1989) d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. Many of the major valleys and shoreline bluffs in the proposed service area are bordered by steeply sloping unconsolidated glacial deposits that are highly susceptible tom gravity sliding. e. Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. We do not anticipate that any of the projects identified in this plan will require grading or filling of a site. When backfilling the trench, we will use native material (that which was removed during excavation) if it meets standards. If the native material is not of an appropriate quality, we will import backfill from an approved source. Any imported backfill material will be addressed in the environmental review during project specific planning phases. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. Minor erosion may result during construction of program projects. Standard erosion control measures will minimize any impact from the minor erosion. g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? Program projects may rarely directly create impervious surfaces. Typically, sewers are installed in asphalt roadways or on easements where structures are prohibited. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -4- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: When projects are developed, pursuant to this comprehensive plan, the construction of those projects will meet all erosion control requirements as set forth in the City's adoption of the King County Surface Water Manual, King County Erosion Standards, or additionally be required by a SEPA finding. 2. AIR a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. Potential vehicular and equipment emissions may affect the ambient air quality for a short period of time during construction of program projects. These impacts would be addressed in environmental review during project specific planning phases. b. Are there any off-site sources of emission or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. Potential vehicular emissions may result during the ongoing maintenance functions of the system by City staff. All City vehicles must meet Sate emissions control requirements including bi-annual emissions tests. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: When projects are developed, pursuant to the Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan, the construction of those projects will meet all City or County codes including emissions control. 3. WATER a. Surface Water: 1) Is there any surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site (including year- round and seasonal streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds, wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. Yes. The northwest boundary of the City is the shoreline of Lake Washington. There are several streams and rivers in the area. In the northern portion of the proposed service area there is May Creek, a Class 2 stream (with salmonids) which flows into Lake Washington. There are several unclassified streams that flow into May Creek. Maplewood Creek flows from the East Renton Plateau to the Cedar River. The lower portion of Maplewood Creek is a Class 2 stream (with salmonids). The upper portions are unclassified. A short run of Madsen Creek, a Class 2 stream (with salmonids), enters the proposed service area prior to entering the Cedar River. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -5- 198 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist The Cedar River is a class 1 stream that flows through the Middle of the proposed service area and discharges into Lake Washington. In addition to the class 2 streams mentioned above, there are several unclassified streams that flow into the Cedar from the East Plateau portion of the the service area. Panther Creek is a Class 2 stream (with salmonids). There are a couple of unclassified streams that flow into it in the service area. Panther creek is a tributary to Springbrook Creek Springbrook Creek is a Class 2 stream (with salmonids) as it flows north through Renton. As it crosses north under Grady Way it becomes a class 1 stream. Springbrook is pumped into the Green River, which eventually flows into Puget Sound. According to King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio (1990) and City of Renton Critical Areas Inventory (Jones & Stokes Associates — June 1991), there are approximately 50 wetlands in the proposed service area. Wetlands that are 20 acres or larger that are identified within the study area are: Name Type Spring brook Palustrine forested wetland Panther Creek Palustrine forested wetland / Palustrine emergent wetland Black River Riparian Palustrine forested wetland Black River Tract C Palustrine forested wetland / Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland East Valley B Palustrine emergent wetland / Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland East Valley F Palustrine emergent wetland / Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland Renton Palustrine emergent wetland Long Acres Palustrine emergent wetland W-24 Palustrine forested wetland / (report lists as 10 acres— Map Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland shows much larger) May Creek 5 Palustrine emergent wetland / (small portion in service area) Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland Lower Cedar River 150 Palustrine forested wetland May Creek 5 Palustrine emergent wetland / (small portion in service area) Palustrine scrub-shrub wetland E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -6- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist For the smaller wetlands in the proposed service area please reference the above mentioned documents. 2) Will the project require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the described waters'? If yes, please describe and attach available plans. Any projects identified within this document that are within 200 feet of the described waters will address the issue in the SEPA and Shoreline Permit Review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. It is the Wastewater Utility's goal to avoid construction in or around wetlands. It is, however, not beyond the scope of possibility that we will have to work on lines existing in the vicinity of wetlands or that engineering constraints may leave us few options for new construction. If work is required in or around wetlands, we will address this issue in the SEPA review for that specific project. Reasonable effort will be made to maintain the integrity of, restore, or replace all wetlands areas as required by State and local regulations. 3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material. Any fill and dredge material that may be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 4) Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. We do not anticipate that there will be any discharge to or withdrawal from surface water. The Sewer Comprehensive Plan proposes elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that could cause discharge of contaminated waters to surface waters in the event a failure occurs. 5) Does the proposal lie within a 100-year flood plain? If so, note location on the site plan. Within the proposed service area there are 100-year flood plains along several streams, including but not limited to Cedar River, May Creek, and Springbrook Creek. Portions of specific projects may be located within a 100-year flood plain. These projects will address this issue in the SEPA review of the individual projects. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 6) Does the proposal involve any discharges of waste materials to surface waters? If so, describe the type of waste and anticipated volume of discharge. Any potential discharge of waste materials to surface waters will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -7- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist b. Ground Water: 1) Will ground water be withdrawn, or will water be discharged to ground water? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. We do not anticipate that there will be any discharge to or withdrawal from ground water. The Sewer Comprehensive Plan proposes elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that could cause discharge of contaminated waters to ground waters in the event a failure occurs. The study also proposes design and construction standards for use in the Aquifer Protection Areas. 2) Describe waste material that will be discharged into the ground from septic tanks or other sources, if any (for example: Domestic sewage; industrial, containing the following chemicals...; agricultural; etc.). Describe the general size of the system, the number of such systems, the number of houses to be served (if applicable), or the number of animals or humans the system(s) are expected to serve. This study proposes guidelines and projects that will result in the reduction of discharges into the ground water by reducing the potential failure of Renton's sewer system, and allowing for elimination of septic systems. This will be a beneficial impact of this Plan. Any potential discharge of waste materials into the ground will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. c. Water Runoff(including storm water): 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. There will be no runoff that can be directly attributed to the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan or any completed project as described within. Any runoff that may occur during construction of the capital improvement projects will be subject to City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements provided in the SEPA finding. 2) Could waste material enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. No discharge of waste materials to ground or surface waters will result from the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. The Plan discusses and proposes design and construction policies in the Aquifer Protection Areas as well as proposing a sanitary sewer system that will allow for the elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that may be allowing the discharge of contaminated material to surface or ground waters. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts, if any: Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts will be addressed the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E:'96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -8- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater management Plan Environmental Checklist 4. PLANTS a. Check or circle types of vegetation found on the site: X deciduous tree: alder, maple, aspen, other _X evergreen tree: fir, cedar,pine, other X shrubs X grass X pasture crop or grain X wet soil plants: cattail, buttercup, bullrush, skunk cabbage, other X water plants: water lily, eel grass, milfoil, other X other types of vegetation b. What kind and amount of vegetation will be removed or altered? It is expected that localized impacts to vegetation could occur as a result of clearing to accommodate construction of projected facilities. Any potential removal or alteration of vegetation will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes will be followed and any necessary removal will be mitigated at the time of application. c. List threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. It is currently unknown if threatened or endangered flora exists within the study area. If there are threatened or endangered species identified on or near the site of any individual project discussed within this Plan, the impacts will be considered and discussed during the SEPA review of that project. d. Proposed landscaping, use of native plants, or other measures to preserve or enhance vegetation on the site, if any: Any potential landscaping, use of native plants, or other measures to preserve or enhance vegetation on site will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. E:`,96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -9- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 5. ANIMALS a. Circle any birds and animals which have been observed on or near the site or are known to be on or near the site: A wide variety of birds and animals native to the Puget Sound Lowlands are found within the study area. The more common are underlined below: Threatened or endangered species will be avoided, relocated or replaced wherever possible. Birds: hawk, heron, eagle,songbirds, other Mammals: deer, bear, elk, beaver, other Fish: bass, salmon, trout, herring, shellfish, other b. List any threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. Protected species such as the bald eagle have been observed within the study area. It is not expected that the proposed program would adversely impact these species over the long term. Short term construction related impacts may occur. These impacts would be discussed in the SEPA review of the specific project and avoided wherever possible. c. Is the site part of a migration route? If so, explain Yes. The Cedar River is a fish migration route used by Chinook, Coho and Sockeye Salmon; and Steelhead and Searun Cutthroat Trout. The Catalog of Washington Streams and Salmon Utilization contends that "for its size, the Cedar River in this section supports one of the largest populations of salmon in the State". As identified in the May Creek Current and Future Conditions Report (August 1995), May Creek and some of it tributaries support five species of salmonids, including Chinook, Coho, Sockeye, Steelhead, and Cutthroat Trout. The entire State of Washington is included within the Pacific flyway migration route. We do not anticipate any project within this plan having any major, long term impacts on migration routes. d. Proposed measures to preserve or enhance wildlife, if any: Any potential measures to preserve or enhance wildlife will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -10- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 6. ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES a. What kinds of energy (electric, natural gas, oil, wood stove, solar)will be used to meet the completed project's energy needs? Describe whether it will be used for heating, manufacturing, etc. Some facilities, such as lift stations, will require electrical energy in order to run the pumps and telemetry. We also use gas powered emergency generators to power stations in case of an electrical failure. b. Would your project affect the potential use of solar energy by adjacent properties? If so, generally describe. None of the proposed project facilities would cast shadows affecting adjacent or surrounding properties. c. What kinds of energy conservation features are included in the plans of this proposal? List other proposed measures to reduce or control energy impacts, if any: All facilities will be constructed utilizing efficient energy use systems that will not effect safety or reliability. Whenever the option is available, sewage lift stations will be eliminated and gravity sewers constructed to reduce the electrical power consumption of the system. 7 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH a. Are there any environmental health hazards, including exposure to toxic chemicals, risk of fire and explosion, spill, or hazardous waste, that could occur as a result of this proposal? If so, describe. There are no environmental health hazards directly associated with the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. This Plan will have a beneficial impact by helping to reduce environmental health hazards by making sanitary sewer service available to land uses that generate pollutants. Renton's wastewater collection system, like any other, has the potential of spill or environmental health hazard because of failure due to lack of funding or personnel to maintain or replace the system as needed. This Plan documents and proposes policy and procedures to minimize the potential of a health hazard. The system is also susceptible to catastrophic events such as earthquakes. We cannot plan against them, if the ground moves significantly the line will rupture. The Comprehensive Plan recommends that the City Wastewater Utility prepares an Emergency Response Plan. 1) Describe special emergency services that might be required. The Wastewater Utility's Maintenance Division and City's Emergency Services Departments are on call, 24 hour a day, to address any emergencies that may occur. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -1 1- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewa,., „Aanagement Plan Environmental Checklist 2) Proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards, if any: This document details policy and design criteria, such as policies for the design or elimination of lift station, and design loading or design period of our sewer facilities, intended to reduce this possibility to the absolute minimum. b. Noise 1) What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your project (for example: traffic, equipment, operation, other)? Existing noise is not anticipated to affect construction or operation of projects proposed in this plan. 2) What types and levels of noise would be created by or associated with the project on a short-term or a long-term basis (for example: traffic, construction, operation, other)? Indicate what hours noise would come from the site. There will not be any noise involved with the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. The projects identified in this Plan will have short term noise impacts associated with their construction. After they are put into operation, lift stations will generate minimal levels of noise. Underground stations would be muffled by the ground so as to be practically silent while above-ground stations will have a hum that would be quieter than the noise of an arterial such as Sunset Blvd. or Main Avenue. 3) Proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any: When projects are developed pursuant to this Comprehensive Plan, the construction of those projects will meet all City or County codes including those regulating noise. 8. LAND AND SHORELINE USE a. What is the current use of the site and adjacent properties? Current land uses within the area of this study vary from heavy industrial to single family residential to vacant. b. Has the site been used for agriculture? If so, describe. Many portions of this study area have a history of agricultural uses. Any projects identified within this document that may be in an area once used for agriculture will address this issue in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. c. Describe any structures on the site. Structures vary throughout the project are from residential to industrial. This includes single family, multi-family, commercial, retail, office, light manufacturing and heavy manufacturing. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -12- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewam, .Management Plan Environmental Checklist d. Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? When eliminating or replacing a lift station, the structure housing the station may be demolished. Demolition of any other structures for or during the construction of any the identified projects is not anticipated. If a structure must be demolished, it will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. Compensation and relocation, if necessary, would be addressed in project specific documentation. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. e. What is the current zoning classification of the site? The Comprehensive Plan covers all areas of the City and involves all zoning within the City code. Current zoning varies depending upon the specific location of individual projects within the comprehensive planning area. f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site? The 1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) designates land use within the City limits. The remainder of the program planning area, which is in unincorporated King County, uses the 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) to designate land use. All of the study area in unincorporated King County is designate "urban". Three Community Plans, New Castle (1988), Soos Creek (1991), and West Hill (1994) were used as additional information in the County areas. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas identified in the Shoreline Master Program for the City of Renton. Any of the projects within these areas will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. h. Has any part of the site been classified as an "environmentally sensitive" area? If so, specify. Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas that may be classified as "environmentally sensitive" in categories such as soils, slopes, and wetlands by such resources as the King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio (1990) and City of Renton Critical Areas Inventory (Jones & Stokes Associates [1991], GeoEngineers [1991], and David Evans &Associates [1992]). These projects will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project to determine the alternative with the least environmental impact. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? Presently,the City of Renton Sanitary Sewer System services approximately 11,000 customer accounts (domestic and commercial). This study addresses sewer needs for full (saturation) development under current Comprehensive Land Use Plans. When the study area identified in this Plan is fully developed (under current land E:`•.96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -13- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewa,,, „Aanagement Plan Environmental Checklist use) and the necessary sewer system is in place, we project approximately 20,000 customers. j. Approximately how many people would the completed project displace? It is not anticipated that any projects identified within this Plan would displace anyone within the project area. k. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce displacement impacts, if any: Does not apply. Proposed measures to ensure the proposal is compatible with existing and projected land uses and plans, if any: This proposed Comprehensive Sewer System Plan was prepared to be consistent with the City's and County's Comprehensive Land Use Plans and with the comprehensive sewer system plans of each adjacent municipality. The Wastewater Utility will maintain coordination with the City's Land Use Comp Plan by updating or amending our Plan as needed. To ensure compatibility the Plan will be reviewed by all applicable State agencies and adjacent utilities. 9. HOUSING a. Approximately how many units would be provided, if any? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. No housing units will be provided as a result of the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. This Plan addresses the development of the sewer system needed for land uses under the current (1995) City Land Use Plan. Any housing units constructed concurrently or subsequently to projects identified in this study will be per adopted City of Renton Land Use Plans and Polices. The specific projects identified within this Plan will be designed to handle the capacity proposed in the Land Use Comp Plan current at that time. Sewer capacity is but one factor in the growth of the housing supply. Development should be per the Land Use Plan and not until all facilities (i.e., water, emergency services, schools, transportation) are in place. Therefore, no significant impact on housing will result from these projects. b. Approximately how many units, if any, would be eliminated? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. We do not anticipate the elimination of any units by either the adoption of this Plan or any subsequent projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control housing impacts, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor any of the projects talked about within this document will have any direct impacts on local or regional housing supply. None of the projects are of a scope that would require bringing large numbers of workers to the area for construction or operation. 10.

Some of the projects identified within this study will include sewage pumping stations which may be enclosed in small fiberglass enclosures (under 50 square feet), small permanent buildings (under 250 square feet) or under a freestanding canopied (carport type)structure. b. What views in the immediate vicinity would be altered or obstructed? Views of project areas would be altered during construction due to clearing, excavation and staging activities. It is not anticipated that any public views would be permanently blocked. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control aesthetic impacts, if any: If any projects identified within this study have aesthetic impacts, they will be addressed in the SEPA review of that project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 11. LIGHT AND GLARE a. What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it mainly occur? No light or glare will be produced by the adoption of this plan. The projects identified within this plan may create a temporary increase in ambient lighting during construction activity. Some lift stations may have security lighting. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? No. c. What existing off-site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal? None. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any: Lighting will be focused and directed to mitigate any potential lighting impacts. If any lighting over 300 watts is used, it will be shielded to prevent light and glare impacts on the adjacent residents. 12. RECREATION a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? This study area has numerous recreational opportunities such as facilities belonging to the City of Renton Parks Department (including parks, trails, community center, and the Maplewood Golf Course), King County (such as parks and trails), the Renton School District (play fields), Issaquah School District (play fields), and private parties(beaches and docks). b. Would the proposed project displace any existing recreational uses? If so, describe. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -15- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewa,u. ,.lanagement Plan Environmental Checklist We do not anticipate any permanent impacts to existing recreational usage. Some of the projects identified within this Plan may have temporary impacts, such as access problems, during construction. There is also the potential for recreational enhancement such as trails that may be developed as part of some sewer projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts on recreation, including recreation opportunities to be provided by the project or applicant, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor the construction of the projects identified in the study will have any permanent impacts on recreational opportunities. Some of the projects may have temporary impacts during construction or the potential for recreational enhancement. These items would be discussed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 13. HISTORIC AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION a. Are there any places or objects listed on, or proposed for, national state, or local preservation registers known to be on or next to the site? If so, generally describe. None are known. b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the site. None are known. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts, if any: Any measures that may be necessary to reduce or control impacts will be mitigated at the time individual projects are reviewed per SEPA requirements. If any evidence of historical, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance is discovered, there will be a cessation of construction activity until a proper survey can be completed. 14. TRANSPORTATION a. Identify public streets and highways serving the site, and describe proposed access to the existing street system. Show on site plans, if any. The Transportation System within the study area consists of major transportation corridors, arterials, City streets, County streets and local access roads. The major transportation corridors include Interstate 405, State Route 167 (Valley Freeway), State Route 169 (Maple Valley Highway), State Route 900 (Sunset Highway), and State Route 515 (old Benson Highway). The City's sewer system is planned and constructed, in most part,to utilize public street rights of way. b. Is site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? Yes. There are currently over twenty public transit routes interlacing the proposed service area. Some portions of the area are well supported by bus routes. Other areas do not have transit support in close proximity.

SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NON-PROJECT ACTIONS (This sheet should only be used for actions involving decision on policies, plans and programs. Do not use this sheet for project actions.) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? This Comprehensive Sewer Plan is a long range proposal and documentation of operation policy, design criteria, and recommended facility improvements. It will be used as a guide in maintaining and improving the system. When we construct any of the proposed rehabilitation or replacements, there will be the potential of discharge to the environment, as we connect or bypass active lines. This potential is minor, however, when compared to the probable impact a neglected and deteriorating facility would have. A sewer system that is properly designed, constructed, and maintained should have, during it's useful life, a minimal likelihood to discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances. While we can not eliminate natural disaster or human error impacts to the system, following proper engineering, construction and maintenance practices, as identified in this plan, should minimize the potential of impacts. If there is a spill or discharge, the City will follow Department of Ecology cleanup and reporting guidelines. Proposed measure to avoid or reduce such increases are: This study proposes guidelines and specific projects that will reduce the possibility of release of toxic or hazardous substances by reducing the potential of failure of Renton's sewer system, and allowing for the elimination of septic systems. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? Adoption of this Plan will not directly affect plants, animals, fish or marine life. However, there will be the potential of indirect impacts as projects identified within the plan are constructed. Those impacted were discussed in Sections B.4 and B.5 of this checklist. Proposed measure to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Any projects identified within this document that may affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life will address this issued in the SEPA review of the individual project. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -19- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewdmi Management Plan Environmental Checklist Any threatened or endangered species of plants will be avoided, relocated, or replaced wherever possible. It is not expected that the proposed program would have any long term impact of animals or fish. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? It is not anticipated that the adoption of this Plan or the construction of any projects identified within will have any significant impact on the depletion of energy or natural resources. (See Section B.6 of this checklist.) Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: Many projects identified in this study will remove sewage pumping stations in favor of gravity systems and thus reduce the utilities energy consumption. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? The Wastewater Utility is creating this Comprehensive Plan to identify, document, and propose policies for the maintenance and construction of our sewer system in a manner that is consistent with the public health and water quality objectives of the State of Washington as well as the goals set by the City and County to protect environmentally sensitive areas. It is the Wastewater Utility's intent to strike a balance where we avoid environmentally sensitive areas where feasible; prevent or reduce the maintenance or deterioration of our system; and eliminate septic systems where they pose a potential threat to the environment. (See Sections B.1, B.3 and B.8 of this checklist). Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: Construction of the new facilities as well as the redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to protect environmentally sensitive areas and with measures to mitigate any potential impacts. These will be addressed on a project by project basis, as appropriate,when they are submitted for SEPA review. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? The City's adopted Land Use Plan was reviewed to ensure that this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan would be compatible with land and shoreline use. The development of new facilities and redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts where feasible and still maintain the purpose of a sewer utility. This Plan and the projects identified within it are not sensitive enough to land use as to allow or disallow uses that are incompatible with existing Plans. We supply sewer service (urban services) to areas designated urban as per State requirements. How the land or shoreline is used is determined by the Land Use Plan. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -20- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range WastewdLe, Jlanagement Plan Environmental Checklist Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: Construction of the new facilities as well as the redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts and with measures to mitigate any potential impacts. These will be addressed on a project by project basis, as appropriate, when they are submitted for SEPA review. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? This Comprehensive Sewer System Plan provides a guideline to help accommodate the increased demand for sewer service that the City has been and is expected to continue providing as the City develops. This Plan addresses the demands on the sewer system based on adopted Comprehensive and Land Use Plans and will not increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities. The projects identified within this Plan will be phased by priority per the criteria set forth in the Plan with emphasis put on the rehabilitation and replacement of existing systems; aquifer protection; and removal of lift stations. There will be times when the minimum size pipe needed will have more capacity available than desired or when the most efficient use of funds is to put in a larger line, designed for the build-out of the basin, when a smaller line will be adequate in resolving the current problem. The excess sewer capacity itself will not increase the demand of other public services. Any subsequent development that has an impact on public services will have to provide the additional services to satisfy the demand. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: This Plan addresses the increased demand put on the sewer utility by development in and around the City and what is foreseen as development occurs per the current adopted Land Use Plan. As the Land Use Plan is updated, the Sanitary Sewer Comp Plan will also be updated. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. This Plan is in accordance with all local, State and Federal law and requirements for the protection of the environment. C.

Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? When eliminating or replacing a lift station, the structure housing the station may be demolished. Demolition of any other structures for or during the construction of any the identified projects is not anticipated. If a structure must be demolished, it will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. Compensation and relocation, if necessary, would be addressed in project specific documentation. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. e. What is the current zoning classification of the site? The Comprehensive Plan covers all areas of the City and involves all zoning within the City code. Current zoning varies depending upon the specific location of individual projects within the comprehensive planning area. f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site? The 1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) designates land use within the City limits. The remainder of the program planning area, which is in unincorporated King County, uses the 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) to designate land use. All of the study area in unincorporated King County is designate "urban". Three Community Plans, New Castle (1988), Soos Creek (1991), and West Hill (1994) were used as additional information in the County areas. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas identified in the Shoreline Master Program for the City of Renton. Any of the projects within these areas will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. h. Has any part of the site been classified as an "environmentally sensitive" area? If so, specify. Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas that may be classified as "environmentally sensitive" in categories such as soils, slopes, and wetlands by such resources as the King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio (1990) and City of Renton Critical Areas Inventory (Jones & Stokes Associates [1991], GeoEngineers [1991], and David Evans &Associates [1992]). These projects will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project to determine the alternative with the least environmental impact. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? Presently,the City of Renton Sanitary Sewer System services approximately 11,000 customer accounts (domestic and commercial). This study addresses sewer needs for full (saturation) development under current Comprehensive Land Use Plans. When the study area identified in this Plan is fully developed (under current land E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -13- • 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastew.„., i1lanagement Plan Environmental Checklist use) and the necessary sewer system is in place, we project approximately 20,000 customers. j. Approximately how many people would the completed project displace? It is not anticipated that any projects identified within this Plan would displace anyone within the project area. k. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce displacement impacts, if any: Does not apply. Proposed measures to ensure the proposal is compatible with existing and projected land uses and plans, if any: This proposed Comprehensive Sewer System Plan was prepared to be consistent with the City's and County's Comprehensive Land Use Plans and with the comprehensive sewer system plans of each adjacent municipality. The Wastewater Utility will maintain coordination with the City's Land Use Comp Plan by updating or amending our Plan as needed. To ensure compatibility the Plan will be reviewed by all applicable State agencies and adjacent utilities. 9. HOUSING a. Approximately how many units would be provided, if any? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. No housing units will be provided as a result of the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. This Plan addresses the development of the sewer system needed for land uses under the current (1995) City Land Use Plan. Any housing units constructed concurrently or subsequently to projects identified in this study will be per adopted City of Renton Land Use Plans and Polices. The specific projects identified within this Plan will be designed to handle the capacity proposed in the Land Use Comp Plan current at that time. Sewer capacity is but one factor in the growth of the housing supply. Development should be per the Land Use Plan and not until all facilities (i.e., water, emergency services, schools, transportation) are in place. Therefore, no significant impact on housing will result from these projects. b. Approximately how many units, if any, would be eliminated? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. We do not anticipate the elimination of any units by either the adoption of this Plan or any subsequent projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control housing impacts, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor any of the projects talked about within this document will have any direct impacts on local or regional housing supply. None of the projects are of a scope that would require bringing large numbers of workers to the area for construction or operation. 10. AESTHETICS E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -14- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range WastewaL .0anagement Plan Environmental Checklist a. What is the tallest height of any proposed structure(s), not including antennas; what is the principal exterior building material(s) proposed. Some of the projects identified within this study will include sewage pumping stations which may be enclosed in small fiberglass enclosures (under 50 square feet), small permanent buildings (under 250 square feet) or under a freestanding canopied (carport type)structure. b. What views in the immediate vicinity would be altered or obstructed? Views of project areas would be altered during construction due to clearing, excavation and staging activities. It is not anticipated that any public views would be permanently blocked. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control aesthetic impacts, if any: If any projects identified within this study have aesthetic impacts, they will be addressed in the SEPA review of that project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 11. LIGHT AND GLARE a. What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it mainly occur? No light or glare will be produced by the adoption of this plan. The projects identified within this plan may create a temporary increase in ambient lighting during construction activity. Some lift stations may have security lighting. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? No. c. What existing off-site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal? None. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any: Lighting will be focused and directed to mitigate any potential lighting impacts. If any lighting over 300 watts is used, it will be shielded to prevent light and glare impacts on the adjacent residents. 12. RECREATION a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? This study area has numerous recreational opportunities such as facilities belonging to the City of Renton Parks Department (including parks, trails, community center, and the Maplewood Golf Course), King County (such as parks and trails), the Renton School District (play fields), Issaquah School District (play fields), and private parties (beaches and docks). b. Would the proposed project displace any existing recreational uses? If so, describe. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -15- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewa,�, .„Ianagement Plan Environmental Checklist We do not anticipate any permanent impacts to existing recreational usage. Some of the projects identified within this Plan may have temporary impacts, such as access problems, during construction. There is also the potential for recreational enhancement such as trails that may be developed as part of some sewer projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts on recreation, including recreation opportunities to be provided by the project or applicant, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor the construction of the projects identified in the study will have any permanent impacts on recreational opportunities. Some of the projects may have temporary impacts during construction or the potential for recreational enhancement. These items would be discussed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 13. HISTORIC AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION a. Are there any places or objects listed on, or proposed for, national state, or local preservation registers known to be on or next to the site? If so, generally describe. None are known. b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the site. None are known. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts, if any: Any measures that may be necessary to reduce or control impacts will be mitigated at the time individual projects are reviewed per SEPA requirements. If any evidence of historical, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance is discovered, there will be a cessation of construction activity until a proper survey can be completed. 14. TRANSPORTATION a. Identify public streets and highways serving the site, and describe proposed access to the existing street system. Show on site plans, if any. The Transportation System within the study area consists of major transportation corridors, arterials, City streets, County streets and local access roads. The major transportation corridors include Interstate 405, State Route 167 (Valley Freeway), State Route 169 (Maple Valley Highway), State Route 900 (Sunset Highway), and State Route 515 (old Benson Highway). The City's sewer system is planned and constructed, in most part,to utilize public street rights of way. b. Is site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? Yes. There are currently over twenty public transit routes interlacing the proposed service area. Some portions of the area are well supported by bus routes. Other areas do not have transit support in close proximity.

CHAPTER I SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION A. PURPOSE OF PLAN The purpose of the Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan (the plan) is to present policy and design criteria and to recommend facility improvements. This plan will be used as a guide in maintaining and improving the sanitary sewer system over the next six years in order to provide the Renton Sewer Service Area with an effective, safe and reliable sewer system. While this plan is an update to the Long- Range Wastewater Management Plan adopted in 1992; it is a complete re-evaluation of the entire sanitary sewer system and a stand-alone document, not a supplement. A summary of this plan's findings and recommendations are presented in this chapter. The plan results from an evaluation of the existing sanitary sewer system and recommendations to resolve existing deficiencies and concerns, and to accommodate growth. The improvements identified in this plan are based on the requirements of the Washington State Department of Health, Washington State Department of Ecology, King County Comprehensive Plan, and City Comprehensive Plan. The City of Renton adopted its last Long Range Wastewater Management plan in 1992. That plan anticipated growth in the system and proposed improvements. The plan also attempted to address concerns for groundwater protection, significant increases in construction cost, and increases in land use densities.These issues, again, as well as others are examined in detail in this plan. The Renton sanitary sewer system is large,and because of the topography, complex in its operation. The condition of the current system, as well as the need for improvements, has been documented in this report. Due to the complexity of this system and the number of issues that must be addressed, this report is organized so that a reader may review a summary of it and its recommendations in this chapter without reading the background or detailed information that led to those results. The plan provides a recognized framework for making decisions about sanitary sewer service in the City of Renton and within Renton's Potential Annexation Area. It is intended to aid decision-makers as well as users, including the Wastewater Utility, City Council members, the Mayor and staff, builders, developers, community groups, and other government agencies. The plan will be a useful tool in the following ways: • As a framework for improvements and operations that govern sanitary sewer system developments in the Renton wastewater utility service area. The plan provides a basis for allocating improvements and costs to new sanitary sewer system users such as home and apartment builders, and commercial developers. It thus provides officials with partial direction for approving building permits and upgrading the system. • To provide a guideline for improving the existing system so that each customer receives adequate sanitary sewer service. It is intended that City officials be able to use these guidelines to maintain a high quality of service at a reasonable cost. • To provide a basis for accommodating changes that occur but that cannot be forecast in the plan. To this end, the plan lists policy issues and operational criteria that can be used to develop alternatives and directions for development, improvements and operations. 12/28/98 1-1 CHAPTER ONE B. NEED TO UPDATE This update to Renton's Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan is inspired by the need to provide constant evaluation of our sewer system and operating policies in order to meet the needs of the customers and to ensure compatibility with the City and County's Comprehensive plans. This updated plan is prepared in conformance with Chapter 173-240 WAC. C. SCOPE OF STUDY The scope of study includes the following: • Analyze the existing system to determine its deficiencies and needed improvements. • Document City Council policies regarding growth and service areas. • Coordinate plan with adjacent utility systems and identify areas for potential service area boundary adjustments. • Estimate wastewater flow rates using land use designations. • Prepare a Capital Improvement Program and estimate its construction costs. • Document, in summary form, the existing operations and maintenance program and recommend improvements and staff additions. • Analyze the recent financial performance of the sewer utility and develop a financial operating projection statement. D. EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM The City of Renton owns, operates, and maintains its sanitary sewer system. This system consists of approximately 167 miles of gravity sewer, 21 sewage lift stations and force mains, and approximately 3700 manholes. Wastewater is discharged to King County facilities at 67 locations within the City Service Area from which it is conveyed to and treated by King County's Renton Treatment Plant. The existing sanitary sewer system is shown on FIGURE 1. The City of Renton Service Area is divided into seven major wastewater collection basins, each of which consists of one or more subbasins. These wastewater collection basins are shown on FIGURES 1 and 2. For the most part, these collection basins and subbasins follow the natural drainage patterns of the Renton service area. For the purposes of this plan, areas that are pumped are included within the basin they are pumped to. This is a modification from the last plan, where basins were drawn related to topography. 1-2 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION E. POLICIES AND DESIGN CRITERIA Policies, design criteria, and standards used for planning and operating the sanitary sewer system are based on laws and policies that originate from several sources. All these policies and standards have the general purpose of providing an acceptable level of service to the sanitary sewer customers. Policies presented in this plan include the following: customer service policies, financial policies, facility policies, and organizational policies. Analysis and design criteria for the sanitary sewer system are based on standards presented in the Criteria for Sewage Works Design prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology as well as standards set by King County Department of Natural Resources - Wastewater Treatment Division and the City of Renton. F. LAND USE AND ADJACENT SYSTEMS The land use proposed in the City's 1995 Comprehensive Land Use Plan was used to estimate wastewater flow rates at saturation conditions within the City. For portions of the service area outside the current City Limits, both the County's existing land use and the City's proposed land use were used for evaluation. These saturation wastewater flow rates were used to analyze existing sewage facilities and to plan for the location and sizing of new sewage facilities. Existing land use designations are shown on FIGURE 5. There are several adjacent utility systems surrounding the City's existing service area, which limit the expansion of the City's sewer system. The greatest potential for expansion of the City's sanitary sewer system is within the May Valley,Skyway and East Renton areas that currently either do not have existing or adequate sanitary sewer facilities. The adjacent utility entities are shown on FIGURE 7. G. KEY ISSUES This plan addresses the following key issues: • Excessive infiltration and inflow. • Extension of sanitary sewer service areas. • Aquifer protection and exfiltration from sanitary sewers. • Sewer system deficiencies including hydraulic constraints, substandard facilities, and replacement of old pipes. Several of these issues were also addressed during preparations of the 1983 Comprehensive Sewer Plan and again in the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan. H. SYSTEM ANALYSIS A hydraulic and a structural analysis were conducted to determine how well the existing system achieved current policies and technical,engineering standards. The plan identifies where the system failed to meet those objectives and recommends improvements to the existing system or construction of new facilities to achieve them. 12/28/98 1-3 CHAPTER ONE A hydraulic analysis is a computer simulation of the existing system to determine its ability to convey wastewater at saturation flow rates. The Wastewater Utility's computer model was used to analyze the system and to size future facilities. This model was developed for the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan and updated with the 1995 Inflow and Infiltration Study flow monitoring data. This computer model will continue to be used by the City as an analytical, planning and management tool. A structural analysis, which is a visual inspection of the existing system, was also conducted and was based on video, as well as actual,physical inspections. The analysis revealed deficiencies that cover a broad range of areas. The hydraulic deficiencies identified are inadequate slopes (inability to achieve carrying velocities), insufficient capacity to handle wastewater flow rates, pipes that are less than 8-inches in diameter and sections that have reverse slopes. Structural deficiencies identified are pipe sag, and root and grease problems. The Renton sewer system has these hydraulic and structural problems in varying degrees throughout the system. I. SEPA A SEPA Checklist has been prepared for this plan and is presented in Appendix C. It is anticipated that this proposed plan will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment and that an environmental impact statement (EIS) will not be required. However, many of the projects proposed herein will require SEPA checklists and some may require an environmental impact statement. J. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS In the development of this plan,the following conclusions were reached: 1. A substantial percentage of the system has reached the end of its useful life and needs to be replaced. The areas of highest concern that should be given highest priority for evaluation for replacement are: Windsor Hills, North Highlands, South Highlands, Earlington, Renton Hill,Downtown,Talbot Hill,West Hill, and Sunset(Honeydew). 2 The City needs to continue to perform detailed testing to obtain better engineering information regarding the operation and hydraulic behavior of the system. Specifically, this should include a continued investigation for Inflow and Infiltration through flow monitoring and video inspection. 3. Where the City annexes an area that is currently unsewered by another municipality, the City should provide sewer service. Where annexation occurs and sewer service is provided by another municipality, the City should determine whether to purchase the facilities from the adjacent municipality, or to continue to allow the existing agency to provide service. Purchase of facilities should be based on the actual depreciated cost the municipality incurred from providing the facilities to obtain service. 4. The rate increases recommended in this plan should be considered an estimate to implement the City-funded portion of all the recommended improvements. Currently, new development pays a major portion of the remaining cost of recommended improvements. If funding from this source, such as the System Development Charge, is not available, the City's share of these construction costs will most likely increase. It 1-4 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION should also be recognized that this plan does not establish annual CIP programs or sewer rates, but rather provides a roadmap and guideline for the operation of the system. Yearly CIP programs and sewer rates are established as part of the budget process. 5. The City's sewer system is complicated; the preceding conclusions and recommendations are based on the highest priority issues. We propose a substantial number of additional recommended facility improvements and modifications that are further described in Chapter VI. When we assigned them priorities, we took into consideration the following characteristics: a. Whether a facility is structurally deteriorating or has hydraulic capacity problems. b. Whether an improvement increases overall efficiency by reducing operation and maintenance costs. c. Whether an improvement helps protect the environment or reduces a threat to public health. K. SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS The following is a summary of proposed improvements to the Renton sanitary sewer system, presented in this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan, to correct existing facility deficiencies and to accommodate growth. 1. Adopt this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan in order to establish consistent City policies and to provide the capability of efficiently planning the sanitary sewer facility improvements. This plan should be updated at intervals of no greater than six years in order to accommodate unforeseen changes in existing assumptions and conditions, and for adjusting budgets and sewer service rates. 2. Replace aging and substandard sanitary sewer facilities within the City. These sewers present a significant potential danger to the environment and public health. 3. Continue development of the gravity sewer system in order to allow the elimination of existing sewage lift stations. These lift stations are less reliable, require higher maintenance and operations costs and cause more adverse impacts to downstream facilities than do properly planned gravity sewer systems. 4. Rehabilitate or replace the sewage lift stations that are considered to be permanent sewage facilities. These improvements will reduce maintenance costs and increase system reliability. 5. Examine programs and projects that will reduce wastewater flow rates and infiltration and inflow within the sanitary sewer system. These may be cost-effective methods that could possibly reduce the size of sanitary sewer facilities, thereby reducing capital expenditures. 12/28/98 1-5 CHAPTER ONE 6. Implement sanitary sewer rate that will adequately finance capital improvement costs as well as operation and maintenance costs in accordance with the utility rate study. L. IMPLEMENTATION In 1990 the Washington State Legislature enacted the Growth Management Act (ESHB 2929) in order to preserve the environment and quality of life while providing for economic growth. This act requires cities and counties in the populated regions of the state to develop coordinated comprehensive plans that will identify areas where urban growth is appropriate and provide necessary transportation and utility improvements to them. The adoption of the plan is the Wastewater Utility's on-going fulfillment of the requirements of the Growth Management Act. The majority of this document presents information that will be the foundation for the Wastewater Utility plans for the future of the system. This information includes a general overview of the existing sewer system and a definition of terms; a presentation of specific policies that guide the management and operation of the sewer system; an examination of the operation and maintenance programs for the utility; and a description and analysis of all components in the existing system with recommended improvements. These items are specifically directed toward the effective and efficient operation of the utility. The first phase of this plan presents a snapshot of land use under current land use policies. It examines the current land use plan adopted in 1995, uses those designations to develop the saturation flow rates for the model, and establishes an operational plan to allow for the development of those land uses. It is important that this step is accomplished as any loans or grants we receive will be based on this information. As part of this process, the Wastewater Utility's goal is to accomplish, pursuant to adoption of this plan, the following implementation tasks: A. Update the financial models in a manner consistent with the City's budget schedule, so that rates can be adopted to accurately reflect the current financial situation within the utility. These models were developed during the development of the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan based upon data provided in the 1989 rate management analysis (Water and Wastewater Rates Management Analysis, RH2 Engineering P.S., November 1989). The model was updated as part of the rate study adopted in 1994 (Comprehensive Rate Study, Water Wastewater, and Surface Water Utilities, Economic and Engineering Services, Inc., January 1994). B. Complete the inventory of the sewer system, verifying the as-built records and gathering data on those parts of the system that are not recorded. C. Continue to implement a program to meter flows in order to gather data to calibrate the sanitary sewer computer model. D. Use the sewer model to develop a timetable of availability for sewers in unsewered portions of the City and the Potential Annexation Areas adopted by the City. 1-6 12/28/98 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION E. Prepare an update to the 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan as necessary, to incorporate the new adopted land use designations F. Update the sewer model, if necessary, to reflect the new adopted land use designations and concurrency standards. M. HOW TO USE THIS PLAN This plan is arranged in eight major sections: Chapter I provides a summary of the recommendations and conclusions presented in this plan. Chapter II provides a general overview of the existing sewer system and a definition of terms. Chapter III presents specific policies that guide the operation of the sewer system. Chapter IV examines the land use policies that guide how the City of Renton accommodates growth and presents the land uses, joint use agreements and design criteria that were used to develop wastewater saturation flow rates on which the computer hydraulic analysis was based. Chapter V describes and analyzes all components in the existing system and presents their recommended improvements. Chapter VI further describes the improvements necessary to resolve existing deficiencies and accommodate growth. The proposed improvements are also listed by priority and by project type. Chapter VII examines the operation and maintenance programs for the Wastewater Utility. Chapter VIII presents the costs of the proposed improvements and the anticipated user increases which will be necessary to support them. 12/28/98 1-7 , ., CHAPTER II OVERvIEw ExISTING SYSTEM ,,,,,,,, .... ___. • dri. ______- 34 illaiifr 1 , -- ,--„ G% 11 egt 1 'Ulla , iu,c - —\11I lu it 4millJ„ - isr '\ — ),44i_ �__ )/ `N' CHAPTER II OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM This chapter presents an overview of the existing sewer system. A more extensive description and analysis of the system,along with recommended improvements, can be found in Chapter 5. A. OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SYSTEM The City of Renton is approximately 16.5 square miles with a population of over 45,000. Approximately 80 percent of the land area and 94 percent of the population is currently served by sanitary sewers. The City of Renton's collection system is municipally owned, operated and maintained and is managed by the City of Renton's Planning/Building/Public Works Department(Public Works). The City maintains 21 sewage lift stations. In addition, there are approximately 15 privately owned and maintained sewage lift stations serving apartment complexes, commercial industrial properties or schools in the City's service area. Wastewater is discharged to King County facilities at 67 locations within the City, from which it is conveyed to and treated by King County's East Section Reclamation Plant. The City of Renton system contains approximately 3,700 manholes and 11,129 customer connections. FIGURE 1 illustrates the existing sewer system in plan. B. SYSTEM HISTORY Sanitary sewer facilities were first constructed in the downtown area of the City of Renton in 1910. Prior to that it was common practice to dispose of wastewater on-site or to directly discharge it to the local estuaries. By 1940 the City's population had grown to 4,800; wastewater was collected and treated in a large septic system located adjacent to the Black River channel. During the 1940s, federal housing was constructed in the City to accommodate workers employed by defense industries. By 1956 the wastewater collection system served a population of 14,800 people within the City's service area. By that time wastewater was treated in a secondary treatment plant located near the current Renton High School Stadium. This treatment plant discharged treated wastewater to the Cedar River. In 1958 the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle (METRO) was formed to solve the growing problem of pollution in Puget Sound,Lake Washington and surrounding waters. METRO developed a regional plan for wastewater collection and treatment facilities in 1959 and assumed operating responsibilities for the regional interceptors and waste treatment systems in 1962, including Renton's secondary treatment plant. The new secondary treatment plant was constructed between 1956 and 1962 near the intersection of Grady Way and Monster Road and discharged into the Duwamish Water Way. This location is the current site of King County's Renton Treatment Plant, which serves as one of the regional treatment facilities. The City of Renton sanitary sewers now discharge to these facilities. In 1993, the citizens of King County voted to combine the Metro and King County governments into a new regional government, Metropolitan King County. Metro's wastewater treatment, water quality and transit responsibilities became part of an interim Department of Metropolitan Services for 2 years while the new government created its new structure. In 1996, the wastewater treatment and water quality functions of the Department of Metropolitan Services were transferred to the new King County Department of Natural Resources. The responsibilities of the former Metro Council, which provided oversight of wastewater treatment service for the first 35 years, now lie with the new Metropolitan King County Council. 12/28/98 2-1 CHAPTER TWO C. SYSTEM COMPONENTS The purpose of a sanitary sewer is to convey wastewater from its source to a point of treatment. Since the generation of wastewater can vary considerably, there is seldom any control over the volume of wastewater that must be conveyed at any particular time. For this reason the sanitary sewer system is designed to accommodate a wide range of wastewater flow rates. The best method for conveying wastewater is a gravity sewer system. A gravity sewer system is made up of collector sewers, which as their name implies, collect the wastewater from the various sources. These collector sewers then convey the wastewater to interceptor sewers, which convey it to the point of treatment. The sanitary sewer system must be capable of transporting all of the constituents of the wastewater stream, which include the suspended solids, floatable solids and liquid constituents. In general, most of the floating materials are carried along with the flow stream; however, suspended solids have a tendency to settle out of the waste stream, unless minimum carrying velocities are achieved. This requires that the sanitary sewers be constructed with a minimum slope to create a gravity flow that will result in a velocity that will continuously carry the suspended solids portion of the waste stream. Another major sewer system component, and typically the most vulnerable one, is the sewage lift station. A lift station is needed when the sanitary sewer system must overcome topographic restrictions that make it impossible or financially unfeasible to construct a gravity sewer. However, some lift station are temporary,used only until the gravity sewer system can be built. D. WASTEWATER COLLECTION BASINS The City of Renton is divided into seven major wastewater collection basins that consist of one or more subbasins, as shown in FIGURES 1 & 2. These collection basins and subbasins would ideally follow the natural drainage patterns of the Renton service area. However, because of natural and service area boundaries, the wastewater collection basins do not always follow drainage basins. The City has lift stations and deep interceptors that transfer flows from one drainage basin to another. FIGURE 3 shows the topography of the City overlaid by the existing sewer system. The wastewater collection basins are based upon the sewer system design and usage. The seven major basins are 1) May Valley, 2) West Cedar River, 3) East Cedar River, 4) Lake Washington East, 5) Black River,6) Lake Washington West, and 7) Duwamish Estuary. E. INTERCEPTORS AND COLLECTION SYSTEMS Interceptors are sewers that receive flow from collector sewers and convey wastewater to a point for treatment or disposal. They are typically located in low lying or centralized areas in order to facilitate the gravity flow of the wastewater. The interceptors and all other sewers make up the collection system. Standards and guidelines for design and construction of sanitary sewers are detailed in Chapter 4. The City of Renton has approximately 167 miles of gravity sewer within its service area as displayed in plan view in FIGURE 1. The sanitary sewer collection system is primarily comprised of 8-inch diameter sanitary sewers but includes pipes sized from 6 inches to 30 inches. 2-2 12/28/98 OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM 1. EXISTING SEWERS The existing sanitary sewer system is constructed with a variety of different sewer sizes and pipe materials. TABLE II-1 summarizes the lengths of pipe for the different pipe diameters and materials. These totals include both gravity and force main pipe. As illustrated in this table, a majority of the sanitary sewer system is constructed with 8-inch diameter pipe. This is consistent with the Department of Ecology criteria for minimum sanitary sewer sizing. The majority of pipe material within the existing system is comprised of concrete and PVC pipe. The concrete pipe has been typically used for the older sewers, while the PVC pipe has been typically used for newer sewer system installations. The City sanitary sewer system also contains approximately 3,700 manholes, which join the various links of sanitary sewer pipe. These manholes vary in construction type from old brick manholes to the newer precast concrete manholes. Many of the older manholes do not meet current code for safety such as manhole covers that are less than 24-inches in diameter. 2. INTERCEPTORS A list of the sanitary sewer interceptors within the Renton system is presented below. These interceptors are located in the following wastewater collection basins: MAY VALLEY BASIN • Renton-Coal Creek Joint Use Interceptor LOWER CEDAR RIVER BASIN • Cascade(Tiffany Park) Interceptor • Central Renton Interceptor • Maplewood Interceptor • Heather Downs Interceptor • East Renton Interceptor 12/28/98 2-3 CHAPTER TWO TABLE II-1: SUMMARY OF SANITARY SEWER SIZES AND PIPE MATERIAL PIPE SJZF SUMMARY PIPE DIAMETER LENGTH PERCENTAGE 3-inch 0.12 miles 0.08% 4-inch 0.17 miles 0.11% 6-inch 4.40 miles 2.85% 8-inch 121.33 miles 78.60% 10-inch 5.36 miles 3.47% 12-inch 11.61 miles 7.00% 14-inch 0.09 miles 0.06% 15-inch 2.89 miles 1.87% 16-inch 0.39 miles 0.25% 18-inch 3.04 miles 1.97% 20-inch 0.38 miles 0.25% 21-inch 1.46 miles 0.94% 22-inch 0.27 miles 0.17% 24-inch 2.85 miles 1.85% TOTALS 154 miles 100% PIPE MATERIAL SUMMARY PIPE MATERIAL LENGTH PERCENTAGE Concrete Pipe 67.31 miles 43.61% Vitrified Clay Pipe 5.56 miles 3.60% HDPE 0.04 miles 0.03% PVC Pipe 49.46 miles 32.05% Lined ductile iron pipe 7.81 miles 5.06% Unknown pipe type 24.18 miles 15.66% TOTALS 154 miles 100% Note: Pipes that are of an unknown material are typically the older lines that do not have good records of installation.

LIFT STATIONS Sewage lift stations are used to convey wastewater from a low point to a higher point through the use of a sewage pump and a pressurized force main. The City of Renton has 21 sewage lift stations within its sanitary sewer system. The location of these lift stations is shown in FIGURE 4. The most common type is a wet well mounted lift station in which the mechanical and electrical equipment are located above the ground surface and over a large manhole out of which the wastewater is pumped. The second most common type is a submersible pump installation in which the sewage pumps are placed directly in the wet well. A wet well/dry well configuration is the third most common type of station. This type has mechanical and electrical equipment located underground in a sealed enclosure adjacent to a large manhole from which the wastewater is pumped. The City also has one pneumatic injector station, in which wastewater is conveyed through a force main using pressurized air Sewage lift stations are the most vulnerable element of a sewage collection system. Temporary lift stations are constructed when it is too costly, at that time, to complete the gravity sewer system; 2-6 12/28/98 OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM permanent lift stations are constructed when it is either physically impossible or financially impractical to construct gravity sewers. G. TELEMETRY AND CONTROL SYSTEM Successful operation of any municipal sewer system requires that the municipality maintains a comprehensive maintenance program and that they obtain accurate sewage flow rate information. Although many additional operation and construction elements are necessary for a complete and working system, maintenance and flow rate information are the keys to a successful operation. A telemetry and control system is the means by which flow rates are measured and maintenance needs are updated. A radio-based telemetry system was completed in 1996 to replace the City's existing tone telemetry system. Each lift station is controlled by a digital based Remote Telemetry Units (RTU) to allow custom control to match the characteristics of each individual lift station. The RTU's are programmable controllers programmed in basic programming language. The RTU monitors the control at the lift station and provides secure and accurate information about the operating conditions. A Master Telemetry Unit (MTU) polls each lift station RTU and feeds the data to the Master Computer via Modbus communication link. The telemetry system provides a method for logging and controlling all the City's lift stations from a central location at the City's Maintenance shops. Operating data from each lift station is stored on a Master (data-logging) Computer for record and later use. This information is used in a comprehensive maintenance program to help eliminate costly station down time that can often cause damage to adjacent property owners and the environment. The control algorithms located on the Master Computer and the RTU's can be used as trend analysis to detect possible problems earlier. The telemetry system information is managed from a Master computer. Wonderware Intouch Person- Machine Interface software is used at the Master Computer for displaying the data graphically on screen. The Master computer displays wet well sewage levels and time to overflow data for most of the City's 23 lift stations. This information can be used to help manage the lift stations in a citywide power interruption that could occur after a natural catastrophe. The telemetry system can be monitored and controlled by a remote computer link using specialized software. The pumps main control system is controlled from a level sensor in the wet well. A back-up float switch system has been installed at most of the lift stations to provide redundant protection from costly overflows in the event of pump failure. Smaller stations, serving twelve or fewer single-family homes, may utilize floats as the main control system. H. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The current operation and maintenance program for the sewer utility consists of four elements: normal operations, emergency operations, preventive maintenance and staffing. Normal operation of the sewer system is shared by the Engineering Division and the Operation and Maintenance Division. The program is described and evaluated in more detail in Chapter 7. 12/28/98 2-7 CHAPTER TWO I. DEFINITION OF TERMS Building Drain- In plumbing, that part of the lowest horizontal piping within a building that transports wastewater, or stormwater to a building sewer. Building Sewer- In plumbing, the extension from the building drain to the public sewer or other place of disposal. Also called house connection or side sewer (private). Capacity Problems- When flow rates exceed what the facility is designed to convey. Collector Sewer- A sewer that discharges into a main or trunk sewer and has no other common sewer tributary to it, only building sewers. Combined Sewer- A sewer intended to receive both wastewater and storm or surface water. Gravity Sewer Capacity- The maximum capacity for a gravity sewer is the volume of flow that can be carried in a sewer at a depth to diameter ratio of 0.85 that is then used in the Manning's equation. Hydraulic Analysis- A computer simulation of a sewer system to determine if it can adequately convey saturation, wastewater flow rates. Infiltration- Infiltration is the entrance of groundwater into the sanitary sewer system through cracks,pores,breaks, and defective joints in the sewer- piping network. Inflow- Inflow refers to direct flow of stormwater into sanitary sewer systems through hookups from stormwater collection facilities and illegal connections. Interceptor Sewer- A sewer that receives flows from a number of trunk sewers and conducts such wastewater to a point for treatment or disposal. Lift Station- A sewage pumping facility which consists of a wet well for collecting wastewater; mechanical equipment such as pumps, valves and piping; electrical and control equipment; and a force main. Lift Station Capacity- The maximum capacity for a lift station is equal to the peak, wet weather flow that the largest pump within the lift station has been designed to convey. Main or Trunk Sewer- The principal sewer to which collector sewers are tributary; also called trunk sewer. A sewer that receives many collector branches and serves a subbasin. Municipality- For the purposes of this plan, municipality shall include cities, water and sewer districts and King County. 2_8 12/28/98 OVERVIEW OF EXISTING SEWER SYSTEM Outfall - The point, location, or structure where wastewater or drainage discharges from a sewer,drain, or other conduit. Planning Area- A geographic area as specifically defined on a map in a comprehensive plan that is a logical area for expansion of the system. Conversion of a planning area to a service area requires King County approval of an amendment to a comprehensive plan. Public Works- The City of Renton's Planning/Building/Public Works Department. Relief Sewer- 1) A sewer built to carry flows in excess of the capacity of an existing sewer. 2)A sewer intended to carry a portion of the flow from a basin in which the existing sewers are of insufficient capacity, and thus prevents overtaxing them. Sanitary Sewer- A sewer that carries liquid and waterborne wastes from residences, commercial buildings, industrial plants, and institutions, together with minor quantities of ground, storm, and surface waters that are not admitted intentionally. Saturation Condition- The point at which development is complete within a land use designation. No further development is possible without a change in the land use limitations. Separated Sewer- A sewer intended to receive only wastewater or stormwater or surface water. Service Area- A geographic area within which service to customers is available as specifically defined on a map in a comprehensive plan and approved by King County, as required. Side Sewer- See building sewer. Side Sewer Stub- The portion of the side sewer between the collector sewer and the individual property line. Storm Sewer- A sewer that caries stormwater and surface water, street wash and other wash waters, or drainage, but excludes domestic wastewater and industrial wastes. Also called storm drain. Wastewater- The spent or used water of a community or industry which contains dissolved and suspended contaminants which cannot be discharged directly to a lake, stream or river. Structural Analysis- A visual inspection,conducted by the human eye or by a video camera, to determine if any physical weaknesses or problems exist. 12/28/98 2-9 -----. s '. ���{{{\JJI LL 1 g Mn "' s,„.. -- -- --�- '� YY>me � $ [- - _ ��I SE 1. n �,-4 .1 R A Y.1 SA �� . a t T lF Y I.PI g �7 Yb'1.. - _� � NE 59n SL 9 . g R GIFT -" E 4,ay. 4 „,111, J 4 IN P -LIFT e TI O R % +Yk Y xnx • _ -A �I• Y19a 51. < M J _- - d YaaS - - 1' M 6 �51 .\ - l —� = 8 T R �D N' T Y ., naa d �.

INTRODUCTION The existing sewer system is designed and operated according to specific ordinances,regulations and engineering standards(hereafter collectively referred to as policies). All of the policies originate from eight sources,listed in descending order,from those with the broadest authority to those with the most narrow: • Federal Regulations-Environmental Protection Agency • State Regulations-Department of Ecology • King County Policies-Department of Natural Resources- Wastewater Treatment Division • City of Renton Comprehensive Plan • City of Renton Ordinances-City Council • Administrative Policies-Mayor • Department Policies-Public Works Department • Long-Range Wastewater Utility Policies-Wastewater Utility Staff Federal regulations,state regulations,county policies,and city ordinances dictate requirements that are set by law. Policies that originate in the Office of the Mayor,Public Works Department,or Wastewater Utility cannot be less stringent or in conflict with those laws. This chapter defines the long-range wastewater policies that will become the official policy of the Wastewater Utility when the City Council adopts this plan. This chapter also summarizes relevant federal, state and city ordinances and laws. Where these policies are further developed in other chapters in this plan, the chapter number is indicated. 12/28/98 3-1 CHAPTER THREE B. GOAL The goal of the City of Renton Wastewater Utility is to provide adequate,reliable sanitary sewer service at a minimum cost to the customer. Guiding the Wastewater Utility's daily operations as well as its planning activities,the policies in this Plan stem from this goal.Objectives and policies that fall into four areas of emphasis support this broad service goal: 1. Customer Service 2. Financial 3. Facilities 4. Organization The long-range wastewater policies are compiled below;the chapters in which they are further developed are also indicated. City and state ordinances and laws are summarized below,for their actual wording. Please refer to the indicated sources for the complete text. The policies presented here will become the official policies of the Wastewater Utility when the City Council adopts this plan. Consequently,they are presented in the traditional policy format rather than the outline format that the other chapters follow. C. WASTEWATER UTILITY POLICIES AND REGULATIONS 1.1.0 CUSTOMER SERVICE OBJECTIVE: Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service which is consistent with land use,environmental protection,and annexation goals and policies. POLICIES: 1.1.1 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-1) Sewer facilities and services should be consistent with the growth and development concepts directed by the Comprehensive Plan. 1.1.2 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-55) Ensure and encourage the use of the sanitary sewer system within the urban areas in a manner consistent with land use and environmental protection goals and policies. 1.1.3 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-56) All new developments should be required to connect to the sanitary sewer system,except properties zoned for low density single family residential development that are located away from environmentally sensitive areas,outside of Aquifer Protection Areas,and having adequate soils to support on-site septic systems. 3_2 12/28/98 OPERATIONAL POLICIES 1.1.4 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-72) Actively promote connection to the public sewers by all residents within the City's service area. EXISTING REGULATIONS: 1.1.5 (City Code sections 8-5-3) Private sewage disposal systems will be allowed within the urban areas,subject to city,county,and state regulations and when public sewers are not available. 1.1.6 (City Code section 8-5-3F) The owners of private sewerage disposal systems shall operate and maintain the facilities in a sanitary manner at all times at no expense to the City. 1.1.7 (City Code section 8-5-2D) Properties that are within 330 feet of an existing gravity sewer line are required to connect if: a) They are under new construction. b) They have a failing septic system. c) They are part of a sewer LID. 1.1.8 (City Code Section 8-8-6C) Any new development(residential and non-residential)in Zone 1 of the Aquifer Protection Area(APA) shall be required to connect to the City sewer system. 1.1.9 (City Code Section 8-8-6C) Existing development(residential and non-residential)in Zone 1 of the APA that is within 330 feet of existing or future gravity sanitary sewer shall be required to connect to the City sewer system within two(2) years of the availability of the new sewer line. 1.1.10 (City Code Section 8-8-7C) Any new development(residential and non-residential) in Zone 2 of the Aquifer Protection Area shall be required to connect to the City sewer system. New single-family residential development on existing lots may be allowed to use on-site disposal systems until public sewer service becomes available. 1.1.11 (City Code section 8-5-3E) Properties that are within 330 feet of an existing sewer line that are not required to connect,and whose owners choose not to connect, will be required to pay a penalty charge equal to the City's monthly sewer charge. 12/28/98 3-3 CHAPTER THREE 1.1.12 (City Code section 8-5-21) The City,at the discretion of the Wastewater Utility,may defer compliance with non-health related standards dealing with extension,design,or capacity for temporary sanitary sewer service. Temporary sanitary sewer service may include pump tests,temporary discharge permits,connections for temporary construction sights,or other similar usage.The property owner will retain the responsibility and will execute an agreement to either directly or financially meet said standards at the direction of the City. 1.1.13 (City Code section 8-5-3E) After connection to the sewer system,all private sewage disposal facilities shall be abandoned and filled with suitable material as defined by current Seattle-King County Health Department regulations,or upon proper cleaning, may be used to dispose of storm waters. 1.2.0 PLANNING OBJECTIVE: Ensure that Renton's sewage collection system is consistent with the City's land use plans and the public health and water quality goals of Washington State. POLICIES: 1.2.1 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-13) Coordinate the extension of sewer service with expected growth and development. 1.2.2(1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-19) Implementation and coordination of programs for the improvement,phasing and financing of sewer infrastructure should be developed consistent with the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan. 1.2.3 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-58) Adequate sewer service capacity should be assured prior to the approval of any new development application. 1.2.4(1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-18) Sewer facilities and services should be in place prior to occupancy of development projects. 1.2.5 (1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-59) Sewer service should be expanded so that the current levels of service are maintained through build-out of the adopted land use. Note: While land use plans typically deal with twenty year projections, the sewer facilities installed today have a life expectancy of 75 to 100 years. A Sanitary Sewer Utility has to consider the current Land Use Plan, historical trends, and predictions for further growth when designing sewers. The Utility may install a facility larger than needed for the land use projected in the twenty-year plan if additional capacity needs are projected for the long-term future. It is in the best interests of the ratepayers to obtain the longest use possible from a facility and not have to replace newer facilities. 3-4 12/28/98 OPERATIONAL POLICIES 1.2.6(1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-61) Renton should coordinate with the regional wastewater agency and adjacent jurisdictions in the planning and maintenance of regional wastewater systems in and near the City. 1.2.7 (1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan,Chapter 4) For planning purposes,the Wastewater Utility should use sanitary sewer service boundaries established by agreement with adjacent municipalities. Where boundaries do not exist,the Wastewater Utility shall use natural basins,the County's Urban Growth Boundary,and negotiations with adjacent sewer service providers to determine the ultimate service area. 1.2.8 (1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan,Chapters 2,5,and 6) Facilities should be planned and sized to serve natural basins to minimize the need for pumping and inter- basin transfers. 1.2.9 (1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan,Chapters 4,5,and 6) Projected sewage flows from development should be calculated based on adopted land use plans and policies. These projections should be used as a guide in developing the wastewater Capital Improvement Program(CIP). If and when land use plans and policies are revised,the CIP should be adjusted accordingly. 1.3.0 SERVICE AVAILABILITY OBJECTIVES: Ensure the availability of an adequate level of sanitary sewer service to areas annexing to the City or areas within the City's Potential Annexation area. POLICIES: 1.3.1 (RCW 35A.14,RCW 35.13A,and 1995 Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-64) City annexation policies will not conflict with adopted state regulations and guidelines. The City of Renton will follow state guidelines that define a City's ability to assume facilities in annexation areas. 1.3.2 (1995 Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-70) The City may assume existing portions of adjacent sanitary sewer systems,at the discretion of the City Council,when such assumptions promote the logical and efficient development of the City's sanitary sewer system. 1.3.3 (1995 Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-69) Allow the extension of sanitary sewer services within the City's Potential Annexation Area according to such criteria as the City may require. Sanitary sewer service shall not be established within the boundaries of another sewer service provider's district,except by agreement with that provider. 12/28/98 3-5 CHAPTER THREE 1.3.4 (RCW 35.13A.050 and 1995 Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-65) Areas annexed without existing municipal sanitary sewer service shall be served by Renton unless a service agreement exists or is negotiated with a neighboring utility. 1.3.5 (RCW 35.13A and 1995 Renton Comprehensive Plan,Policy U-66) Areas annexed with existing sanitary sewer service must meet the City's sanitary sewer service objectives. Upgrading of sanitary sewer facilities to City standards,within all or portions of newly annexed areas will be required if there is a threat to public health and safety. If improvements are necessary,they may be accomplished by developer installation or LID as a condition of the annexation. 1.3.6 (1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan,Chapter 4) The City Council shall consider annexations without assumptions of existing sanitary sewer facilities under the following conditions: a) The sanitary sewer facilities are or will be operated and maintained by an adjacent municipal utility;and b) The adjacent utility has executed a service boundary agreement with the City;and c) The annexation area is better served by the adjacent utility either because of location within a drainage basin or because it is the most logical extension of facilities. 1.3.7.(1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan,Chapter 4) Service to new development outside the City Limits requires consistency with the designated land use of Renton's Comprehensive Plan in terms of density,use,and residential unit type.

INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the City of Renton's land use policies, adjacent utilities, and the sewer system's design criteria. It then describes how land use policies and design criteria were used to develop saturation flow rates that were the basis for a hydraulic computer analysis of the existing system. The City of Renton's land use policies and its sewer system are connected with adjacent sewer systems' policies and systems in several ways. Existing land use provides the basis for designing properly sized sewerage facilities, including trunks, interceptors, and lift stations. Most of the basins served in part by the City are also served in part by other cities or districts. In most cases Renton's sewers are downstream, or at the receiving end of the effluent, from the systems adjacent to the City. Therefore, proper planning for Renton's sewers requires that the plans of these adjacent utilities be evaluated. In addition to adjacent utility plans, the land use plans and policies of King County and the Growth Management Planning Council were also considered. As discussed below the entire planning area is within the Urban Growth Boundary established by the Growth Management Planning Council. Renton supports the countywide framework policies (FW-10 and CO-10) that call for the designated Urban Area to be served with sanitary sewers and prefers cities as the provider of sewer services. Also, as is discussed in Section C.5, below, the entire study area has been designated Urban by the 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan. B. STUDY AREA As described in Chapter 2 the City of Renton serves seven drainage basins, which are: 1) May Valley, 2) West Cedar River, 3) East Cedar River, 4) Lake Washington East, 5) Black River, 6) Lake Washington West, and 7) Duwamish Estuary. Except for Lake Washington East, all of these basins are also served in part by another sewer agency. The extent of these basins is shown on FIGURES 1 & 2. May Valley Basin is partially served by Coal Creek Water and Sewer District. Soos Creek Water and Sewer District also provide Service within the West Cedar River Basin. In addition to Renton, the City of Tukwila,City of Kent,and Soos Creek Water and Sewer District also provide service within the Black River Basin. Both Renton and the City of Tukwila provide service within the Duwamish Estuary. Bryn Mawr/Lakeridge Water and Sewer District and Skyway Water and Sewer District serve parts of the Lake Washington West Basin. The study area (Proposed Service Area), shown in FIGURE 7, for this Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan was developed using a variety of criteria. Because many of the adjacent utilities have sanitary sewer facilities that border the Renton City Limits, the proposed sewer service area for the most part,corresponds with the current city limits. Deviations from this norm did occur in the following areas: • Water District 90 does not currently provide sanitary sewer service within its service area. A considerable amount of development pressure exists in this area. Therefore, the study area was extended into the water service area of Water District 90 to the East Maplewood subbasin limits. The East Maplewood subbasin has been included in the Urban Growth Area (UGA) by the Growth Management Planning Council. Implementation of the UGA designation requires sanitary sewer service. Renton's Potential Annexation Area (PAA) coincides with the UGA. 12/28/98 4-1 CHAPTER FOUR Consistent with the Countywide Planning Policies, the updated Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City of Renton has included the East Maplewood subbasin within the City's Planning Area. The details of how sewer service would be provided to the Maplewood subbasin are the subject of a study titled East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report(October 1997) which is included herein, by reference as Volume 2 of this Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan. • The City of Renton has negotiated service area boundaries with Soos Creek Water and Sewer District and Skyway Water and Sewer District along the common borders.The study area includes the agreed upon service area boundary. • The City of Renton is currently negotiating with Coal Creek Water and Sewer District to set a service area boundary along their common border. The study area shows the tentatively agreed upon service area boundary. • Natural boundaries in certain areas make the City of Renton the logical sanitary sewer provider to them. The study area includes the area to the east of the Green River within the City of Tukwila. C. LAND USE 1. CITY OF RENTON EXISTING LAND USE The existing land use pattern of the City of Renton reflects 100 years of settlement and expansion. The original City was settled in the broad floodplain at the confluence of the Cedar and Black Rivers along the shore of Lake Washington. The downtown, the Renton Municipal Airport and the Boeing/PACCAR industrial area now occupy these lands. Significant redevelopment is anticipated for the downtown over the next 15 to 20 years. Areas immediately north and south of downtown are characterized by older single family development interspersed with small-scale multi-family. Outside of the central business district, commercial areas are concentrated along the major arterials and freeway exchanges, including Rainier Avenue, Grady Way, Sunset Boulevard, NE 4th Street, the NE 44th Street exit from Interstate 405, and SW 43`d Street. These areas are generally characterized by low intensity, auto-oriented strip commercial, but also include Renton's automall along Grady Way and several large-scale retailers. South of downtown to the city limits, the Green River Valley has developed with manufacturing, office and warehouse uses. The south and eastern portions of the valley include some commercial uses. The Valley has experienced a great deal of development activity in recent years, including a number of new warehouses, offices including the expansive Longacres Boeing office campus, a cinema complex, and bulk retail, among other uses. Anticipated development includes several hotels and additional office buildings. Most residential development has occurred on the uplands above the Green River Valley, downtown and Lake Washington to the north. These areas are primarily comprised of single family neighborhoods, although some concentrations of multi-family and commercial uses exist. West of the downtown, residential development extends seamlessly from Renton up onto the West Hill of unincorporated King County. However, on the east side, a lack of available sewer service in the unincorporated area has created an abrupt transition of housing densities at the city limits. Renton's Potential Annexation Area and proposed sanitary sewer service expansion area on the East Renton Plateau is generally characterized 4-2 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA by large-lot single family and vacant, unplatted parcels. This is an area where the City anticipates significant single family growth to occur, following the advent of sewers. The geography and hydrology of the Renton vicinity as well as a proactive parks acquisition program by the City of Renton combine to provide significant open spaces that constitute a passive land use. Some larger examples include lands adjacent to the Cedar River and May Creek, Gene Coulon Park on Lake Washington, the Black River Riparian Wildlife Habitat area and habitat areas of the Green River Valley. 2. CITY OF RENTON FUTURE LAND USE To the extent that the City has jurisdiction or can require compliance, development within the service area must be consistent with Renton's Comprehensive Plan. FIGURE 5 is a reproduction of the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map adopted September 14, 1998. Consistency with the Plan may be required as a condition of sanitary sewer service outside the city limits. The Comprehensive Plan is intended to provide the basis for all development regulations, functional plans and other City plans and programs that may in some way support, implement or derive from the City's land use plans. The Comprehensive Plan is a broad statement of community goals and policies that direct the orderly and coordinated physical development of the City. The Plan anticipates change and provides specific guidance for future legislative and administrative actions. The Plan also serves as a guide for designating land uses and infrastructure development as well as developing community services. The City has had a Comprehensive Plan since 1965. The current Plan, adopted in 1995, was developed and approved under the regulatory requirements of the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) and the policy framework of the King County Countywide Planning Policies. While the Plan includes Transportation, Housing, Capital Facilities, Utilities, Downtown, Economic Development, and Environmental Elements, it is the policy decisions expressed in the Land Use Element that gives the Plan its primary direction and cohesiveness. This Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan proceeds from and supports the policies and Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan. Utility Element policies have been addressed in Chapter 3. The Land Use Map, part of the Land Use Element, represents the intended future pattern of land uses in the planning area. The service area addressed in the Wastewater Management Plan includes most of the area within the existing city limits, portions of City's Potential Annexation Area(PAA) and several areas outside both the existing city and the Potential Annexation Area. These areas outside of the City and the PAA include several areas within the city limits of Tukwila (117 acres) and Kent (15 acres) and an unincorporated portion of the West Hill (206 acres). The West Hill area is within Renton's future service area by agreement with the Skyway Water and Sewer District. At one time, it was also within Renton's Potential Annexation Area. Although currently removed, it is likely that portions of the former West Hill Potential Annexation Area will be reinstated after anticipated discussions with King County, Seattle, Tukwila and the West Hill Community. The district designations on the Land Use Map correspond to policies in the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan and are implemented by the City's adopted Zoning Map and Zoning Code. The land use designations are described below. 12/28/98 4-3 CHAPTER FOUR 3. LAND USE DESIGNATIONS Residential Rural: The designation is intended to preserve natural resources and open space and to protect environmentally sensitive areas by limiting residential development. The policies allow residential development with maximum densities ranging from one unit per 10 acres to 5 units per net acre. No minimum density is required. Residential Single Family: This designation is intended to foster the development of single family neighborhoods and to allow compatible infill development in existing single family areas. Residential densities can range from a minimum of 5 to a maximum of either 8 or 9.7 units per net acre, depending on the size of the original parcel. Residential Options: The RO designation allows a variety of housing types from small lot, detached single family to small-scale multi-family up to four units per structure. At least half of the units in any development must be single family. The designation is typically mapped in areas with an existing mixture of single and multi-family development and between higher intensity commercial and residential uses and single family areas. Densities may range from 7 to 10 units per net acre. However, if all units are detached, densities may reach 13 units per net acre. Residential Planned Neighborhood: This designation is intended to foster the creation of new, higher density neighborhoods. It is typically mapped for large, vacant areas where site planning can assure an integrated development emphasizing single family character and amenity value. Densities can range from 8 to 18 units per net acre. Residential Multi-Family - Infill: This designation is intended to encourage infill of existing multi-family areas with compatible development. Density can range from 10 to 20 units per net acre. Convenience Commercial: The designation provides for small-scale commercial uses that serve the personal needs of the surrounding neighborhood. Development may include a residential component of up to 5 units per net acre. The City's Comprehensive Plan is based, in part, on a hierarchy of mixed-use centers, primarily comprised of residential and commercial uses. These areas are intended to be urban in land use and pedestrian in orientation. The centers vary in terms of the intensity of development and the range of intended market area for the goods and services provided. Center boundaries are intended remain relatively static. Neighborhood Center: At the lowest rung of the Centers hierarchy,Neighborhood Centers are intended to serve the basic, ongoing needs of the residents of the adjacent and surrounding neighborhoods. Residential densities are not specified in the policies. Current implementation allows a range from 10 to 15 units per net acre. Suburban Center: These Centers are intended to provide a wide range of consumer goods and services to an area that includes several neighborhoods but not the entire city. The Suburban Center policies also do not currently indicate a density range. However, implementing zoning allows densities of 10 to 20 units per net acre. 4-4 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA Center Downtown: The most intensive of the Center designations, the Center Downtown comprises a portion of Renton's Urban Center. The policies encourage a broad range of commercial, office, residential and light industrial uses. An overall floor to area ratio of 2:1 is envisioned with continued redevelopment. Retail and service uses are intended to serve the local as well as regional markets. Net residential densities are expected to achieve a range of 25 to 100 units per acre but may reach 150 units per acre under certain conditions. Center Office/Residential: This designation is intended to foster compact and cohesive urban developments in a limited number of select locations. These locations are characterized by high environmental amenity value and gateway locations. Primary uses are envisioned to include higher intensity residential or office development, hotels and convention centers, research and development facilities and corporate headquarters. Commercial uses may also be included providing that they support the primary uses. The residential component is limited to 35 units per net acre. Center Institution: The Center Institution designation identifies areas appropriate for the development and expansion of large public or quasi-public institutions and those related uses that benefit from a location proximate to such public uses. The primary uses may include health care, municipal and post- secondary educational facilities. Employment Area - Commercial: This designation is intended to provide for commercial uses that require large amounts of land or high visibility. Typically located along arterials, low-intensity, auto- oriented, strip-commercial is the predominant urban form in the EAC. Employment Area - Office: The intent of the Employment Area - Office is to promote a wide range of office activities and provide for supporting small-scale commercial uses. While allowing for more intensive high-rise office development up to 25 stories, structures under 10 stories have been more typical to date. Employment Area - Industrial: This designation is intended to create and sustain industrial areas to provide the synergistic benefits of proximity and to segregate the more intensive industrial uses for which compatibility with dissimilar uses may be an issue. Supporting commercial and office uses are envisioned as part of the overall mixture of uses in the designation. Much of the more recent industrial development has been warehouse use. Employment Area - Valley: The Employment Area - Valley designation is intended as a general employment category that amalgamates commercial, office and industrial employment areas. The designation is created to provide flexibility in responding to market demands for different employment area uses. Currently, the major use categories are generally segregated by implementing zoning that maintains a specific land use emphasis. However, the district distinctions may be dissolved somewhat or entirely in the future. TABLE IV-1 lists the acreage of Renton's proposed sanitary sewer service area by Renton Comprehensive Plan land use designation and with reference to the city limits. As noted above, a portion of the proposed service area is within another city or in an unincorporated area that is outside Renton's Potential Annexation Area. For those areas outside Renton's Comprehensive Planning area, land use designations are adopted by different jurisdictions. 12/28/98 4-5 CHAPTER FOUR TABLE IV-1: LAND USE OF RENTON'S SEWER SERVICE AREA Area in Acres Area in Acres LAND USE DESIGNATION (existing City Limits) (PAA) Residential Rural 1,127 951 Residential Single Family 3,784 2,320 Residential Options 306 27 Residential Planned Neighborhood 219 0 Residential Multi-Family Infill 489 15 Convenience Commercial 21 3 Center Neighborhood 147 0 Center Suburban 280 0 Center Downtown 213 0 Center Office/Residential 147 0 Center Institution 227 7 Employment Area-Commercial 363 17 Employment Area-Office 94 0 Employment Area-Industrial 710 43 Employment Area-Valley 1,838 0 TABLE IV-2 displays the land use designations for those areas within Renton's service area that are outside of the City of Renton and outside Renton's Potential Annexation Area TABLE IV-2: LAND USE DESIGNATIONS FOR AREAS OUTSIDE RENTON'S PAA ,TURISDICTION(DESIGNATION) LAND USE(DENSITY) AREA IN ACRES Kent(SF-3) Residential (3 units/acre maximum) 15 Tukwila(Commercial/Light Industrial) Commercial/Office/Light Industrial 77 Tukwila(Tukwila Urban Center) Commercial/Office/Light Industrial/ 40 Multi-Family(22 du/acre maximum) King County Residential 91 (Urban Residential 4-12 du/ac) (zone based density : 6 du/acre) King County Residential 97 (Urban Residential 4-12 du/ac) (zone based density : 8 du/acre) King County Residential 19 (Urban Residential 4-12 du/ac) (zone based density : 12 du/acre) 4-6 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA 4. COUNTYWIDE PLANNING POLICIES King County's Countywide Planning Policies (CPPs) were drafted as a requirement of the Growth Management Act. Adopted by the King County Council and ratified by its cities, the CPPs were intended to create a unified approach to dealing with the County's forecast growth and its consequences, and to guide the individual County and municipal comprehensive planning efforts. Renton's Comprehensive Plan is consistent with the general direction and specific requirements of the CPPs. The CPPs state that"sewer systems are preferred for construction on existing lots and shall be required for new subdivisions" for areas identified for growth within the next ten years. (Policy CO-10) Additionally,the CPPs favor cities for providing urban services to their potential annexation areas. "Cities are the appropriate provider of local urban services to Urban Areas either directly or by contract. Counties are the appropriate provider of most Countywide services. Urban services shall not be extended through the use of special purpose districts without the approval of the city in whose potential annexation area the extension is proposed. Within the Urban Area,as time and conditions warrant,cities should assume local urban services provided by special purpose districts." (Policy FW-13) To the north, west and south of Renton,the City has, or is in the process of establishing, agreements with existing sanitary sewer service providers for current and future service area boundaries. In Renton's Potential Annexation Area on the East Renton Plateau, however, no sewer provider currently exists. As prescribed by the CPPs, Renton should either provide sewer service to this area or contract for such services. In no event should another purveyor serve without the City's explicit permission. Finally, Policy CO-1 states, "Jurisdictions shall identify the full range of urban services and how they plan to provide them." This functional plan answers this requirement with regard to sanitary sewer services. 5. UNINCORPORATED KING COUNTY The 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan directs Land use within the unincorporated portions of the study area. All of the study area in unincorporated King County is designated "urban." Urban growth areas (UGAs) are intended to develop at urban densities and with urban service levels. Under the growth management concept,these areas are expected to accommodate the majority of King County's population and employment growth. The Urban Growth Boundary is the division line between the designated urban and rural areas that defines the eastern boundary of Renton's Potential Annexation Area. According to the King County Countywide Planning Policies which provide a policy framework for all comprehensive plans in King County, cities may not annex areas outside the Urban Growth Boundary nor may they provide sewer service,except in cases of threat to public health. Unincorporated areas of King County are divided into community planning areas, each with a community plan. While these community plans were not adopted as part of the 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan, the plans remain in effect and continue as official County Policy. Where conflicts or inconsistencies between the policies of the community plans and the County's Comprehensive Plan occur, the Comprehensive Plan takes precedence. Three community plans, Soos Creek, West Hill, and Newcastle, cover most of the unincorporated areas within the study area of this plan. 12/28/98 4-7 CHAPTER FOUR 6. ANNEXATION When areas outside of the city limits annex to the City, they must be provided with an adequate level of sewer service. The City of Renton will serve annexed areas that do not have sewer service unless a service agreement exists or is negotiated with a neighboring utility. Annexed areas with existing sanitary sewer service must meet the City's sanitary sewer service objectives as they are defined in Section 1.3.0 in Chapter 3. However, upgrading sanitary sewer facilities to all City sanitary sewer standards will be required only if there is a threat to public health and safety. As a condition of the annexation, improvements may be required, which can be constructed by developer installation or Local Improvement District (LID). A more detailed description of the City's annexation policies can be found in Chapter 3. 7. ADJACENT UTILITY SYSTEMS/JOINT USE AND SERVICE AGREEMENTS The City has entered into several joint use and service agreements with neighboring districts and private customers when it has been economically beneficial. A list and a summary of these joint use and service agreements is presented below. The full text for each of these agreements is presented in Appendix B. • The Tiffany Park Interceptor Joint Use Agreement with the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. • Apollo School Lift Station Service Agreement with Issaquah School District and King County Water District 90. • Coal Creek Water and Sewer District(King County Water District No. 107) Utility Franchise Agreement. • Coal Creek Water and Sewer District(King County Water District No. 107) Joint Use Agreement. • Skyway Water and Sewer District Service Boundary • City of Kent Agreement. • Soos Creek Water and Sewer District(Cascade Sewer District) Service Boundary Agreement(1991). • Soos Creek Water and Sewer District(Cascade Sewer District) Service Boundary Agreement(1997). The City is surrounded by eight adjoining utility entities, seven of which provide sanitary sewer services. These eight utility entities are shown on FIGURE 7. The study area or proposed sewer service area for the City's 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan is also shown on FIGURE 7. These adjacent utility entities are: 4-8 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA a. COAL CREEK WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT Coal Creek Water and Sewer District (formerly King County Water District No. 107) provides sewer service in part of the May Valley Basin. The District adopted a Comprehensive Sewer Plan in 1988. They are currently preparing an update to that plan. Its plan for serving May Valley Basin includes diverting approximately 1,000 acres from the May Valley Basin to the Coal Creek Basin on an interim basis. This plan is based upon two assumptions: first, that it would be too difficult and expensive to construct a May Valley Interceptor at this time, and second, that the City of Renton's service in the southern part of the Basin is adequately provided by the Honey Creek and Sunset Interceptors. In order to accomplish this diversion, the District is proposing to construct three lift stations and to complete a Coal Creek Interceptor Improvement Project. As part of this update, the City and Coal Creek are making boundary adjustments to remove previous service overlaps and will enter into an additional joint use agreement for the provision of service in the Lincoln Avenue area. This proposed boundary is shown on FIGURE 7. b. KING COUNTY WATER DISTRICT NO. 90 King County Water District No. 90 does not currently provide sanitary sewer service. The District does have a franchise from King County that would allow the installation of sewers in County Right-of-Way. In 1970, the district prepared an engineering report for the purpose of developing a comprehensive plan for the district. Due to opposition from the community at that time, the district did not proceed with preparation and adoption of a comprehensive plan for sewer service. Countywide Policy FW-13 (KC Ordinance 11446) identifies cities as the appropriate provider of local urban services to urban areas. This policy further reads that urban services shall not be extended through use of special purpose districts. The Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) also establishes that cities are the preferred providers of urban service within Urban Growth Areas (section 36.70A.110). Based upon the State and County policies, the City is the appropriate provider of sewer service on the East Renton Plateau. For this reason, the study area of this plan includes the area between Renton's easterly city limits and the Urban Growth Boundary. c. CEDAR RIVER WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT Cedar River Water and Sewer District provides service to parts of the Lower Cedar River Basin. However, only a small fraction of the wastewater from Cedar River Water and Sewer District ultimately flows through the City of Renton's system by flowing through the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. The majority of sewage from Cedar River Water and Sewer District flows directly into King County's Cedar River Interceptor located along the Maple Valley Highway. The District's last Comprehensive Sewer Plan was adopted in 1994. The Wasmeta Park area is a service area gap between the City and the District. Currently no direct sanitary sewer facilities exist within this area. If sewer service is needed or required, the City should provide it because it is on the north side of the Cedar River, and the remaining service area of the Cedar River Water and Sewer District is on the south side. 12/28/98 4-9 CHAPTER FOUR d. SOOS CREEK WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT Soos Creek Water and Sewer District adopted a Comprehensive Plan in 1998. In conjunction with that plan, the District and City entered into a 1997 interlocal agreement revising the boundary between Soos Creek and Renton that had been set by a 1991 agreement. Based upon these agreements, the City is the service provider to some areas currently outside the city and Soos creek provides service to some areas inside the city limits. A 1964 agreement provides for joint use of a sewer interceptor in the Tiffany Park Subbasin, and the 1991 agreement provides for joint use of the Springbrook Interceptor, located on So. 192nd Street. The Springbrook Interceptor will provide service to the southernmost portions of the City of Renton. e. CITY OF KENT SW 43rd Street is the principal dividing line between the cities of Renton and Kent. Renton has an agreement with Kent to serve a small area south of SW 43rd Street east of 72nd Avenue So. and west of the Puget Sound Electric Railway right-of-way. The City of Kent Comprehensive Sewer Plan was adopted in 1980. The Renton and Kent City limits adjoin each other. There is a small portion of the City of Kent, south of S. 55th Street and east of the Valley Freeway, that is in Renton's service area. There are no service area overlaps or gaps between the two entities, except for that one small area. f. CITY OF TUKWILA The City of Renton serves a portion of the City of Tukwila east of the Burlington Northern Railroad and south of Longacres. Tukwila also discharges from a lift station into the KING COUNTY Sewer System within the City of Renton along Monster Road SW. Tukwila prepared a Comprehensive Sewer Plan in 1991. This Plan shows the extension of sanitary sewer service by the City of Tukwila to the south of what they call Basin 10. The portion of `Basin 10' that is south of Minkler Boulevard and east of the Green River is served by Renton dating back to when this area was part of the City of Renton. The 1991 Tukwila Plan also shows the proposed installation of an 8" sewer main north of I-405 in the vicinity of SW 116th Avenue SW and Monster Road that flows through the City of Renton in order to connect to the King County influent line. g. SKYWAY WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT Skyway Water and Sewer District adopted a Comprehensive Plan in 1994. The service area from the District's Comprehensive Sewer Plan is shown on FIGURE 7. The boundary between Skyway and Renton has been set by an interlocal agreement adopted in 1994. Approximately 60 percent of the District is served with sanitary sewer facilities. An area in the southern portion of the District, as well as in the service area to the south of the District, could be served by gravity to the Renton sanitary sewer system. 4-10 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA h. BRYN MAWR-LAKERIDGE WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT According to maps provided by the District, Bryn Mawr-Lakeridge Water and Sewer District serves a small area of Renton along Rainier Avenue near So. 117th Place. Sewage from Bryn Mawr/Lakeridge discharges into the KING COUNTY System within the City of Renton at the north end of the Renton Airport. The eastern part of the District could be served by gravity to the Renton system. 8. AQUIFER PROTECTION ORDINANCE In 1992, the City of Renton adopted an Aquifer Protection Ordinance to protect its water supply from being contaminated. The ordinance regulates land use within the aquifer recharge area in order to protect the aquifer from contamination. As part of aquifer protection the City has designated an aquifer protection area (APA), which is that area within the zone of capture for the City's aquifers and spring. The APA is divided into two zones. Zone 1 is that area in which contamination would reach the aquifer within a year. Zone 2 is that defined as the remaining area within the APA that is within capture area for the City's water supply wells. These zones are shown in FIGURE 6. Land use in Zone 1 is more strictly regulated than in Zone 2. All new development within Zones 1 must connect to the sewer system. Existing development must connect if it is within 330 feet of a sewer line. In Zone 2, all new platted single-family, multi-family and commercial development must connect to the sewer system. However, a single-family residence is required to connect only if it is within 330 feet of a sewer line. A more detailed description of the proposed aquifer protection policies can be found in Chapter 3. D. ANALYSIS AND DESIGN CRITERIA This section presents the design criteria for sanitary sewage collection system analysis and design. Analysis is necessary to determine the adequacy of the existing system and to identify needs for future facilities. The analysis and design criteria are based on "Criteria For Sewerage Works Design" prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology, King County Department of Natural Resources - Wastewater Division, the City of Renton Standards, actual water usage records, and other accepted engineering criteria and standards for sanitary sewer design and construction. 1. WASTEWATER FLOW RATES -DEFINITION Wastewater in the service area is generated by the population and by non-residential users within it. The Renton Comprehensive Land Use Plan identifies fifteen, separate land use categories. For sanitary sewer planning purposes, these fifteen categories were used to determine wastewater flow rates for the hydraulic computer model. The fifteen land use categories are listed in the Land Use section of this Chapter. Fifteen saturation land use populations were determined by calculating the areas of each designated land use category. This was accomplished by assigning land use designations to all parcels within a land use boundary on a computer base map that was used for producing the figures for this plan. Saturation was defined as the point at which development is complete within a land use designation. 12/28/98 4-11 CHAPTER FOUR 2. WASTEWATER FLOW CRITERIA Wastewater flows can be divided into four major components,which are 1)domestic wastes,2) industrial wastewater, 3) infiltration, and 4) inflow. The wastewater flow criteria used for each or these four components is presented in TABLE IV-3. TABLE IV-3: WASTEWATER FLOW CRITERIA Average Domestic Sewage Flow: 100 gals/day/person Average Population Density 2.7 person/dwelling unit single-family (U.S Census Bureau, 1980): 1.9 person/dwelling unit multi-family Residential Density: Residential Rural 5 dwelling units/acre Residential Single-Family 10 dwelling units/acre Residential Options 13 dwelling units/acre Residential Planned Neighborhood 18 dwelling units/acre Residential Multi-Family Infill 20 dwelling units/acre Mixed Use Density: Neighborhood Center Site specific Suburban Center Site specific Center Downtown Site specific Center Office/Residential Site specific Commercial and Industrial Sewage Flows*: Convenience Commercial 2800 gals/acre/day(gpad) Center Institution 2800 gpad Employment Area-Commercial 2800 gpad Employment Area-Office 2800 gpad Employment Area-Industrial site specific Employment Area-Valley site specific Recreation 300 gpad Green Belt 0 gpad Infiltration and Inflow(KING COUNTY): Peak Infiltration 700 gpad Peak Inflow 600 gpad Peaking Factors System Average 2.0 x Depth/diameter ratio 0.85 * Design flow criteria vary considerably,depending upon land use. a. DOMESTIC WASTEWATER Domestic wastewater flows are essentially equal to wintertime water consumption and are typically established on a per capita basis. The average domestic wastewater flow used for analysis and design of the sanitary sewer system is 100 gallons per day per person. 4-12 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA b. COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER Commercial and industrial wastewater is defined as the wastewater generated from a specific commercial or industrial operation. Commercial and industrial wastewater does not include waste generated by employees of the industry, which is considered domestic waste and excluded from this category. c. INFILTRATION Infiltration is the entrance of groundwater into the sanitary sewer system through cracks, pores, breaks, and defective joints in the sewer-piping network. Additional infiltration also results from the entrance of storm- water through manhole covers. The quantity of water that may infiltrate into a sanitary sewer system depends upon many variables, such as the age of the system, materials used in construction, and the service area's hydrology, soils and groundwater level. However, the design of the sewer system, including mains, laterals, and individual connections, along with inspection during construction, will have substantial impact on the quantity of infiltration. Due to improvements in construction materials and practices, systems installed after 1960 generally show a decrease in the quantity of groundwater infiltration. The use of non-porous piping materials and rubber-gasket type joints will help reduce infiltration and will improve the condition and life of the sanitary sewer system. The design allowance for infiltration is shown in TABLE IV-3. d. INFLOW Inflow refers to direct flows of stormwater into sanitary sewer systems through hookups from stormwater collection facilities and illegal connections. Stormwater inflow is due mainly to unauthorized connections to the sanitary sewer system. The enforcement of regulations banning the illegal connections to the sanitary sewer system along with continued efforts to identify and correct previously unauthorized connections minimize stormwater inflow. The design allowance for stormwater inflow is shown in TABLE IV-3. 3. SANITARY SEWER DESIGN CRITERIA All sewer lines within the City of Renton shall be designed in accordance with good engineering practice by a professional engineer with minimum design criteria presented in Chapter 2 of the "Criteria for Sewerage Works Design," prepared by the State of Washington Department of Ecology, October 1985,or as superseded by subsequent updates. This chapter includes standards and guidelines for design considerations (minimum pipe sizes, pipe slopes and wastewater velocities), maintenance considerations, estimating wastewater flow rates, manhole locations, leak testing and separation from water pipelines. These criteria have been established to ensure that the sanitary sewers convey the sewage and protect the public health and the environment. The sewer lines shall also conform to the latest City of Renton Standards and Specifications. Detailed standards are included in Title 4, Chapter 6 of the City Code. Requirements relating to design are listed below. 12/28/98 4-13 CHAPTER FOUR a. DESIGN LOADING FOR SANITARY SEWER FACILITIES Sanitary sewer system flows are composed of residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial sewage, along with infiltration and stormwater inflow. Sanitary sewer systems must be capable of conveying the ultimate peak flows of these wastewater sources. No overflows shall be permitted. b. DESIGN PERIOD The design period is the length of time that a given facility will provide safe, adequate and reliable service. The period selected for a given facility is based on its economic life, which is determined by the following factors: the structural integrity of the facility, rate of degradation, cost of replacing the facility, cost of increasing the capacity of the facility, and the projected population growth rate serviced by the facility. Collection and interceptor sewers are designed for the ultimate development of the contributing area. The life expectancy for new sanitary sewers,using current design practices,is in excess of fifty years. c. DESIGN OF SANITARY SEWER FACILITIES Allowable sewer pipe shall be ductile iron, cast iron, PVC, or concrete. For normal depth, PVC is generally preferable, because it has longer laying lengths, which results in fewer joints, reducing the potential for infiltration. Gravity sewers are sized to provide capacity for peak,wet-weather flows. The smallest diameter sewer allowed is 8-inches, except for limited conditions. All sewers will be laid on a grade to produce a mean velocity when flowing half-full of at least 2 feet per second. Manholes will be at least 48-inches in diameter and will be spaced at intervals not to exceed 400 feet on sewer lines 15-inches in diameter or less, and 500 feet on sewer lines 18-inches in diameter or larger. The design parameters are summarized in TABLE IV-4. d. ROUGHNESS COEFFICIENT The Manning equation shall be used to design and analyze wastewater flow characteristics of the sanitary sewers. The Manning roughness constant [n] shall vary depending on the pipe material. For sewer modeling, a Manning's equivalent of 0.013 will be used. Typical values are summarized in TABLE IV-4. e. REFERENCE DATUM The North American Vertical Datum(NAVD) 1988 is the standard datum used within the City of Renton for design and construction of sanitary sewer facilities. f. SEPARATION BETWEEN SANITARY AND OTHER FACILITIES The Department of Ecology requires a ten (10) foot separation of water and sewer facilities for health reasons. Sanitary and storm sewer facilities shall have basic separation requirements for construction purposes. A minimum horizontal separation of five (5) feet between sanitary and other facilities shall be maintained. Wherever possible, a horizontal separation of seven (7) feet is desirable. These distances are measured edge to edge. 4-14 12/28/98 LAND USE POLICIES,ADJACENT SYSTEMS&DESIGN CRITERIA TABLE IV-4: SANITARY SEWER DESIGN CRITERIA Sanitary Sewer Sizing: Peak Wet-Weather Flow Minimum Sewer Size: 8 inches in Diameter (6 inches for limited conditions) Pipe Materials: PVC Reinforced Concrete Pipe Cement Lined Ductile Iron Manholes: Maximum Spacing 400 feet Minimum Manhole Size 48 inches in diameter Minimum Clear Opening 23 inches in diameter Maximum Depth 20 feet(where possible) Separation From Water Mains: Horizontal Separation(Parallel) 10 feet Minimum Scouring Velocity 18 inches Hydraulic Criteria: Depth to Diameter Ratio 0.85 Vertical Separation(Perpendicular) 2 Feet Per Second Manning Roughness Coefficient PVC 0.011 Concrete 0.012 Lined DI/CI 0.012 Vitrified Clay 0.013 Sewer Modeling 0.013 g. HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS The sanitary sewer system hydraulic analyses will be performed using the City's hydraulic computer model. All new developments, with the exception of developments involving less than five single-family residences, may require an analysis. The developer may be responsible for paying the cost of the analysis of the sanitary sewer system. If the analysis concludes improvements need to be made, the developer and the City may need to negotiate who will pay the costs. 4. LIFT STATION DESIGN CRITERIA Sewage lift stations within the City of Renton shall be designed in accordance with good engineering practice by a professional engineer using the minimum design criteria presented in Chapter 3 of the "Criteria For Sewerage Works Design," prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology, October 1985, or any subsequent updates, and shall conform to the latest City of Renton standards and specifications. Detailed standards are included in Title 4, Chapter 6 of the City Code. Requirements relating to the design are listed below. 12/28/98 4-15 CHAPTER FOUR a. DESIGN LOADING FOR LIFT STATIONS Lift stations shall be designed to handle the peak, wet-weather flow from the contributing area. All lift stations, except for private stations for a single family home, shall have a minimum of two pump units,each with the capacity to handle the expected maximum flow. b. DESIGN PERIOD The design period for lift stations shall take into consideration long-term needs, replacement or expansion difficulties, service area growth rate and useful life. A lift station should have a minimum design period of twenty years for the facility and ten years for mechanical and electrical equipment. Consideration should be given to longer design periods for lift stations that are expected to serve an indefinite life. Consideration must also be given to the ability of the consumers to pay for the facilities. c. DESIGN OF LIFT STATION FACILITIES Lift stations, except for private stations for a single family home, shall be designed with a minimum of two pumps, both of which have the capacity to convey peak wastewater flow rates. If wide variations in wastewater flow rates are expected for the lift station, then consideration should be given to the use of three or more pumping units. If three pumps are used, two of them must have the capacity to convey peak wastewater flow rates. Each pump shall be capable of passing spheres of at least 3-inches in diameter. Each lift station will be provided with either an on-site or portable power backup. A lift station designed for portable power backup shall be provided with sufficient wet-well storage to allow adequate time for maintenance personnel to transport, setup, and provide the necessary backup, during a power outage. Wet-well storage will be designed on the basis of the peak, wet-weather flow. Force mains shall be sized to maintain a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second. The force main shall have a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second when all pumps are operating together. Regardless of these velocity criteria, minimum size shall be three inches in diameter. A minimum of four inches in diameter is preferable. Each lift station to be owned by the City shall have control and telemetry systems that are consistent and compatible with the current City system. 5. ELIMINATION OF LIFT STATION FACILITIES Lift station facilities are typically eliminated through the development of the gravity sewer system. Highest priority should be given to elimination of lift station facilities because of their high degree of vulnerability and high operation and maintenance costs. These considerations include environmental risks, life-cycle costs, lift station impacts on downstream sanitary sewer facilities, vulnerability to vandalism, and lift station accessibility. 4-16 12/28/98 - E- VI ' ;J:.),,t,4: 7 VIMARkilIWPF :,_ 3111."/ i i INA a lel IIEDD"' "ri‘W "41 la 1 El is eV I i i .: I I 7..j 1111 , kE XI rrniligtHi itikiiritkr 14 - ' r L.'"' ..., •,..„,imr. w4 14,14. ro ,,,.._ , 1 1,, AI ,i___.c [1302 .l ' I r atiNoliiiir 1 ......... rill . . 41 \-.... �`r *,,eye p*, ,mot `ti4r _! i \I " E ,,N _ __I e t E 11 p ,... ... w l OW ,, i J!'. ,,,..,...., - .--- 1 - 1 . !lirifigt-a, - a E j p~ 'k -ree,qir k , I I_I 4i ����� LAKE �ASHINCTON \\ m*, E `!F'� { p M t,\,,, iiiiiir ,. 1 AltlirrhPIOW ' ------- rw. -_.-:..-.01:'n,elps.- -:. r - ill , i- . •, ..,_ _ II -4 LIA vv-Av..-- 1.,... , s,i-_-_•,_:::::::::_:, ___ Mint gab 1 3, QA, P 4E4 .16 zs, '', igglifimisil et-eiw • --- - -----------, ,,,. ww.

INTRODUCTION This chapter presents a detailed analysis of all aspects of the existing system and their recommended improvements. Three system components are identified and described in this chapter. The results of either their hydraulic or structural analysis is then presented. The three systems are the wastewater collection system, lift stations, and the telemetry control system. Other deficiencies that do not apply to one system component are presented at the end of this chapter. Many sections of the existing sanitary sewer system have problems that fall into three categories: deficient capacity, aging pipes, and infiltration and inflow. Capacity problems in the existing sanitary sewer system, at saturation, have been identified using a hydraulic computer model. The hydraulic analysis was conducted by entering saturation wastewater flow rates in a computer model of the existing system to determine if it could adequately convey them. Capacity problems, at saturation, do occur throughout the system in various degrees and are a result of inadequate pipe sizes or slopes. Much of the existing sanitary sewer system was installed during the 1940s and 1950s as a federal program to provide housing for workers at the Renton Boeing Plant. Many of these sewers have reached the end of their useful economic life and require replacement. Many of them are in the North Highlands and South Highlands Subbasins. The City of Renton is currently in the process of evaluating and prioritizing the replacement of these aging sanitary sewers. Infiltration and inflow occur in all sanitary sewer systems. Infiltration is defined as water entering the sanitary sewer system through pipes,joint connections, manhole covers and walls. Inflow is defined as water discharged to the sanitary sewer system through connections to roof drains, yard drains, foundation drains, and cross connections with storm sewers and combined sewers. The combination of both infiltration and inflow can be a major portion of the total wastewater flow which must be carried by the sanitary sewer system. Infiltration and inflow problems in an existing sanitary sewer system can be studied to determine their effect. Many infiltration and inflow problems can be corrected through grouting and rehabilitation of existing pipes and manholes, replacing damaged pipes, and eliminating illegal connections to the sanitary sewer system. Combined sewers are designed to carry both stormwater and wastewater within a single system. Current design practices in the City of Renton do not allow combined sewers because it causes stormwater, which is relatively clean, to be treated along with wastewater. Combined sewer systems within the City have been replaced with separate sanitary and storm sewer systems. 1. HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS A hydraulic computer model of the City's sewer system was developed as a part of the 1992 plan update. The purpose of this model was 1) to evaluate the existing sanitary sewer system and determine areas of capacity constraint, and 2) to provide a tool for planning future improvements. The hydraulic computer model was created using a software package designed by Specialized Software Products, Inc., of Tukwila, Washington. The computer model was further calibrated using data accumulated in the Infiltration/Inflow program completed in 1995. 12/28/98 5-1 CHAPTER FIVE Two basic kinds of data were needed for the computer model: physical data and wastewater flow data. The physical data of the sanitary sewer system was taken from as-built drawings and other records provided by the City. Physical data was only available for up to 70 percent of the sanitary sewer system. As a result the unmodelled portion of the sanitary sewer system cannot be evaluated using this computer model. The physical data entered into the computer model included manhole numbers, pipe invert elevations at each manhole, and pipe length, diameter, and material type. Physical data not entered was the age or date of construction of the various system components. The wastewater flow rates entered into the computer were based on estimated saturation conditions, because those are the basic criteria around which sanitary sewer facilities are designed. Domestic wastewater flow rates were determined by land use designations for the entire planning area. The wastewater flow rate criteria set for each land use designation is summarized in TABLE IV-3. The entire sanitary sewer system was first divided into sections and those sections divided into their land use designations. The total area of each land use designation within each section was calculated and then used to determine the domestic wastewater flow rate and infiltration and inflow data. The resulting flow rates and data were then divided equally amongst the sanitary sewer manholes within that land use designation. Pump flow rates from each of the lift stations were determined through review of the operations and maintenance manuals, and this flow data was distributed to the appropriate manholes. The hydraulic computer model output was developed through a mathematical synthesis of the physical data and wastewater flow rate information which was entered into the model's database for each pipe section. The maximum capacity of each pipe section was determined using the Manning's equation. A depth to diameter ratio of 0.85 was used to describe the maximum, desired hydraulic condition within a pipe section. The Manning's co-efficient for the various pipe materials is listed in TABLE IV-3. The computer model using the invert elevation of the upstream and downstream manholes calculated the slope used in the Manning's equation. The expected peak, wet-weather flow rate at saturation was calculated using the various flow rates entered onto the model database. A peaking factor of between 2.0 and 5.0 was applied to the domestic flow rate entered into each manhole. The inflow and infiltration inputs were based on the results of the City's 1995 I&I Study. The peak,domestic flow rates, infiltration and inflow, and lift station flow rates were then summed downstream through the entire basin. The model output includes the peak, wet- weather flow rate and maximum velocity for saturation conditions. The hydraulic analysis of the existing sanitary sewer system involved several steps. First, a comparison between the peak, wet-weather flow rates and the maximum capacity of each pipe section was made. A pipe section was determined to be over capacity if the ratio of the peak, wet-weather flow rate to the maximum flow rate was over 85 percent. This provided a safety factor that would help account for variations in the Manning's co-efficient and missing data not entered into the computer database. The second step identified the pipe sections with adverse pipe slopes (those pipe sections where the upstream manhole is lower than the downstream manhole), and the third step identified pipe sections which were constructed within inadequate slopes to achieve carrying velocity. This model is used by the City to evaluate changes to the existing system or additions to the system during the design phase of each sewer project. However,to increase the reliability of the model output, it is necessary that the City generate the physical data for the remaining sewer system that is not currently modeled. In addition, the existing physical data and wastewater flow data entered in the current model should be checked and verified. Finally, a model report should be prepared in order to document the 5-2 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS information used in developing the model and to generate a complete print out of both the input data and the output results. 2. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS A structural analysis is a visual inspection of the existing system either by a video camera or actual inspection during normal operations and maintenance. The Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Division owns and operates its own sewer video inspection equipment. At this time, the video equipment is used approximately three days per month. Video inspections have been organized and documented since 1988. The video inspection averages approximately 1500 feet per day. The inspection process requires hydraulic jet cleaning of the sanitary sewer section prior to the video inspection. After completion of the video inspection, roots are cut and cracks are sealed, if necessary, before proceeding to the next section. The video inspection equipment requires two people to operate. If traffic control is necessary, two additional people are required. At the current rate, it will take fifteen years to video inspect all existing sanitary sewers. It is recommended that sewers near the end of their useful life be video inspected every five years. All other sewers should be inspected every ten years. Currently, the videotapes taken by the maintenance crews are stored and cataloged at the City Shops. However, sanitary sewer videotapes of new additions are stored in uncataloged boxes that are then placed in the City's archives. The City should catalog all sanitary sewer videotapes using a computerized database and store them in a single location for easy retrieval. B. SYSTEM-WIDE CONCERNS 1. KING COUNTY-INTERCEPTOR SURCHARGE During peak flows, KING COUNTY will use its interceptors for storage of wastewater and for controlling flows in the East Division Reclamation Plant (EDRP). This may result in surcharging of the KING COUNTY interceptors. KING COUNTY reserves the right to surcharge its interceptors to an elevation of 25 feet. KING COUNTY has never reached this extreme;however,the City has experienced sewer surcharge problems in the low-lying areas. As a result of KING COUNTY's surcharging, it is possible that additional wastewater could overflow in low-lying areas through manhole covers and side sewer connections. The City has not designed facilities to accommodate a sewer surcharge to an elevation of 25 feet. The City's current position is that KING COUNTY is responsible for providing adequate capacity within its interceptors and wastewater treatment facilities. In addition, the City considers KING COUNTY to be responsible for proper effluent disposal. During the preparation of the Comprehensive Sewer Plan, no specific analysis was made of the effect of KING COUNTY's surcharging on the City's sewer system. KING COUNTY should continue to study and identify areas of potential risk and alternatives to mitigate this problem. King County has increased the influent and effluent capacity at EDRP and has begun the installation parallel interceptor facilities. This significantly lowers the chance of surcharging but does not eliminate the problem. 12/28/98 5-3 CHAPTER FIVE 2. ADJACENT UTILITY SYSTEMS For purposes of this plan, all of the comprehensive plans for the adjacent utility systems described in Chapter 4 were examined. This plan's analysis used their predictions for the future capacity that they will need when they convey wastewater through Renton. However, adjustments to the City's interceptors may need to be made as these systems further clarify their needs. The City of Renton has several agreements with adjacent utilities that allow joint use of facilities within the City. It is important that these adjacent utilities are restricted to the volume of wastewater discharged to the joint use facilities. If capacity problems become evident, through visual inspection or flow measurements, then the City and the adjacent utility should work together to investigate the potential sources, both within the City's service area and within the adjacent utility,to correct the problem. 3. FRANCHISES A franchise is an agreement in which a city or county provides permission for a service provider to install utility lines in that jurisdictions rights-of-way. Renton issues franchises allowing adjacent districts authority to install sewer facilities in City rights-of-way to provide service to those portions of their districts inside Renton city limits. Similarly Renton holds franchises with King County allowing the City to install sewers in County rights-of-way. Copies of the franchises are included in Appendix "B". Following adoption, the City will work with King County to obtain franchise authority to utilize their rights-of-way to install facilities to provide sewer service to Renton's proposed service area. It has also come to our attention that King County Franchise No. 620 has expired. The City will be contacting King County to renew this franchise. 4. STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS The following is a discussion of specific problems that are associated with the gravity sanitary sewer system in the City of Renton. a. AGING SEWERS Many of the gravity sewers within Central Renton, the Central Business District, and the Highlands were constructed in the 1940's as a result of housing constructed for the Boeing plant in Renton during World War II. Many of these sewers have reached their design life expectancy (approximately 50 years). As these sewers approach the end of their useful life, increased maintenance and structural inspections should occur to locate and prevent pipe failures. The City should continue this process. The 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management plan identified some of the older sewers and established a capital improvement program to replace and upgrade them. Since that time, the City has replaced sewer mains in Central Renton and the Central Business District and replaced the major trunk line in the Highlands. The City should continue replacing sewer mains prior to them becoming a maintenance liability and prior to their failure. 5-4 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS b. REVERSE SLOPES AND PIPE SAGS A major maintenance problem associated with sanitary sewers that are laid with a reverse slope or have sag due to improper construction or differential settlement is that they require periodic cleaning to remove debris. There are approximately 90 such sewer sections within the City. c. ROOT PROBLEMS Tree roots cause problems in sanitary sewers by penetrating and cracking sanitary sewer pipe joints to feed on the wastewater. Tree roots can also create blockages, resulting in backed-up sewers. The City has approximately 30 sections of pipe, which require routine root cutting maintenance to prevent wastewater backups and reduce pipe damage. The Wastewater Maintenance Section has met its goal of keeping the City's mains from being blocked by root intrusion. d. GREASE PROBLEMS Grease problems are typically associated with major food processing operations, the majority of which involve restaurants where grease is a component of the wastewater. Many of the older restaurants within the City do not have grease removal systems. Newer restaurants have been and will continue to be required to install grease removal systems. However, many grease removal systems are not properly maintained. Grease buildup problems occur most often in the side sewers. However, some grease buildup problems also occur in the sanitary sewer collection system. When problems do occur, the City maintenance crews are usually called out to investigate. A proper monitoring program reduces maintenance time involved in removing grease buildup. The City has achieved moderate success in noting problems and identifying the sources. The Wastewater Utility has also worked with new construction and tenant improvements to ensure that these users are installing proper grease removal system and/or bio-agent facilities. As part of a program to prevent the build-up of grease in City mains, the City should work toward the installation of grease removal systems and/or bio-agent facilities in all restaurant and food processing type facilities and proper maintenance of those facilities. A program should be established requiring owners of grease removal systems to write a letter, on an annual basis, certifying that proper inspection and maintenance have been performed. Certification should require a small fee to cover administrative costs. Fines should be imposed for certification fraud of improper inspection and maintenance practices. In addition, cost of cleanup due to problems associated with improperly maintained grease removal systems should be assessed to property owners. 5. EARTHQUAKE PREPAREDNESS The Seismotectonic Map of the Puget Sound Region (Gower and others, 1985) shows two significant faults and three small faults less than 10 miles from Renton City Hall. These faults are zones of weakness in the bedrock that could possibly be the sites of future earthquakes. The largest fault lies north of Renton. It is inferred on the basis of an abrupt change in relief(an escarpment) in the bedrock topography of the Puget Lowland. Many small earthquakes (<3.5 on the Richter Scale) have been 12/28/98 5-5 CHAPTER FIVE detected along this escarpment, especially beneath Seattle and Mercer Island where the depth to bedrock is deepest. The escarpment has an east-west trend which is perpendicular to the regional, north-south structural trend of the Puget-Willamette trough and the Cascade range. Because the basin in the bedrock north of this escarpment is filled with sediments, it is not expressed at the surface from Winslow to Mercer Island. However, east of Mercer Island, where it closely parallels I-90, it is marked by the high relief of the Newcastle Hills, Squak Mountain and Tiger Mountain. The middle to lower Tertiary rocks comprising those hills, and possibly upper Tertiary sediments (Walsh, personal communication, 1990) are strongly folded. Despite the seismic record of numerous earthquakes along the escarpment, no rupture or deformation of the ground surface appears to have occurred during the last 15,000 years. Another major fault that passes through Renton may begin in Bremerton and extend to Issaquah or connect with the well-defined Hobart fault east south east of Renton. This fault is locally well expressed in lower to middle Tertiary rocks, but it does not deform Vashon glaciation and younger sediments (<15,000 year old). Furthermore,because historical earthquakes are not concentrated along its trend, this zone of weakness in the bedrock does not appear to be a hazard. Similarly, smaller faults west of Renton in Tukwila and through the South Center area cut only the bedrock and do not appear to have been active for at least 15,000 years. Although direct rupture of the ground surface due to a major earthquake originating in the Renton area is unlikely, ground shaking and failure resulting from a regional magnitude 6.5 to magnitude 7.5 earthquake is likely during this decade. The recurrence interval for deep earthquakes (>40 km deep) of this magnitude is about 25 years in the Puget Lowland. Because so many earthquakes have occurred during the 14,000 years since the glacially sculpted landscape emerged from beneath the melting ice, most features and sediments are adjusted to the ground motion of magnitude 7 or an even larger event. However, steep slopes that have been undercut by rivers, man or the natural weathering and sapping processes of migrating groundwater will be susceptible to failure. Particularly likely to fail (liquefy or slump) are areas of recent fill like the Cedar River delta and man-made deposits of insufficiently compacted saturated sandy to silty soils. In general, structures close to bedrock will be less impacted by ground motion than those on unconsolidated sediments or man-made fill. However, the topography of the bedrock surface beneath Renton will have a major influence on the focusing or attenuation of seismic energy. Areas overlying old valleys or basins in the bedrock, where fill may be hundreds of feet deep, may receive up to ten times the shaking that neighboring bedrock hillsides will experience (Then and Hadley, 1986). Thus, facilities designed for the Duwamish valley and Maplewood area will have to meet higher standards of seismic design. Water and sewer systems of the Renton area will very likely experience the significant ground motion associated with about a magnitude 7 earthquake. Because Renton has developed both on bedrock and deep fills of unconsolidated sediments, seismic energy will be locally focused, and very different degrees of ground motion will be experienced by different parts of the system. Lift stations should be located as close to bedrock as possible, and the system should be designed to accommodate significant changes in seismic stress over relatively short distances (tenths of a mile). 5-6 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS C. WASTEWATER COLLECTION BASINS The following section of this chapter presents an analysis of wastewater collection basins, which is presented in an order based on the seriousness of each basin's deficiencies. See FIGURES 1 and 2 for a location of basins. A brief summary of the status of each basin follows. • A portion of the wastewater within the May Valley Basin is currently diverted into the Lake Washington East Basin which will eventually cause an overload of that system. Either construction of the May Valley Interceptor or upsizing of lines in the Lake Washington East Basin will be necessary to correct these problems prior to reaching capacity. • The capacity constraints that the West Cedar River Basin had have been taken care of by the installation of the East Renton Interceptor. There are still some older sewers in the Central Renton and Windsor Subbasins that should be scheduled for replacement. • Lake Washington East Basin currently receives wastewater from the Devil's Elbow Lift Station. Modeling of this basin projects that the Lake Washington Subbasin may develop capacity problems as the upstream basins build out. The North 6th Street Interceptor is projected to have capacity problems as building increases in this subbasin. The City should continue to monitor these subbasins for capacity and need to upsize. The older sewer mains in the North Highlands, South Highlands, North Renton, and President Park Subbasins are reaching the end of their useful lives and should be scheduled for replacement. • The Panther Creek Subbasin in the Black River Basin may be at or near capacity. Zoning changes in the Renton Industrial Subbasin may cause an increased demand for sewer capacity. The City should continue to monitor this subbasin for capacity and need to upsize. • In the Lake Washington West Basin, the West Renton Subbasin has sections of sewer lines that experience some capacity problems. The South Earlington Subbasin has a large quantity of sewer mains that are over fifty years old. The City should program to replace and upsize these mains. • The Duwamish Estuary Basin is for the most part undeveloped and is not experiencing capacity problems at this time. 1. MAY VALLEY BASIN The May Valley Basin is located in the northeast part of the City. Most of this basin is currently unsewered and is located on the periphery of the City's current service boundary. The May Valley Basin is jointly served with the Coal Creek Utility District. The City serves approximately 430 acres of this basin which consists of primarily single-family and light commercial land uses. The ultimate sewerage of the May Valley Basin will be through the extension and completion of the proposed May Valley Interceptor. The portion of the May Valley Interceptor necessary to serve the southwest portion of the basin that is in the City's Limits would be mostly constructed in existing roads. Construction of the entire facility, farther to the east, faces environmental and regulatory challenges. The May Valley 12/28/98 5-7 CHAPTER FIVE Interceptor is not scheduled to be constructed during the six-year time frame of this plan. King County (Metro) has studied the proposed installation of this interceptor and this information is documented in a report titled May Valley Basin Wastewater Conveyance Plan Report. At this time, the following three lift stations serve low lying areas along Lake Washington in this basin: Misty Cove, Baxter and Denny's Lift Stations. Because the Devil's Elbow Lift Station discharges into the Lake Washington East Basin, the Honey Creek Subbasin is considered part of that major basin and it will be addressed in that section. 2. WEST CEDAR RIVER BASIN The West Cedar River Basin includes the eastern portion of the City of Renton bordering the Cedar River. This basin, which consists of primarily single-family and multi-family developments with some commercial and light industrial land uses, is approximately 3117 acres. This basin includes the Central Renton, Windsor,Cemetery Hill,Heather Downs, Orchards, and Tiffany Park Subbasins. a. CENTRAL RENTON SUBBASIN The Central Renton Subbasin includes the central business district of the City located north of the Cedar River and south of North 3rd Street. This 146-acre subbasin consists primarily of residential and commercial land uses. The City replaced the majority of the sewer collection system, in this subbasin, in 1995. The City also rerouted the primary flow of the 24" main in North 4th Street down Factory Avenue North to the new King County trunk in North 3rd Street. The 1995 sewer replacement project focused on that portion of the subbasin that is in Zone 1 of the aquifer. There is approximately 1700 feet of old sewer main, at the far west side of the subbasin, that is outside of the aquifer and was not replaced. These mains should be scheduled for replacement in the near future. b. WINDS OR SUBBASIN The Windsor Subbasin includes the Windsor Hills, Monterey Terrace, and Highbury Park neighborhoods. Land use in this subbasin consists primarily of single-family residential with some multi-family developments. This subbasin is approximately 282 acres. It connects into the KING COUNTY Interceptor at North 3rd Street and Factory Avenue North. The sewers in this basin are middle-aged with the oldest lines being those in Windsor Hills. The Transportation Division is undertaking a study to determine the street rehabilitation needs, cost, and funding possibilities for the Windsor Hills Neighborhood. Given the age and maintenance history of the sanitary sewers in the Windsor Hills Neighborhood, the Wastewater Utility should evaluate the sewers for possible replacement or rehabilitation in conjunction with any street rehabilitation. The sewers in this subbasin are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. 5-8 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS c. CEMETERY HILL SUBBASIN The Cemetery Hill Subbasin is located primarily south of NE 4th Street. This 607-acre subbasin serves a variety of land uses including single-family and multi-family residential as well as some commercial and light industrial land uses. This subbasin connects into the KING COUNTY Cedar River Interceptor along the Maple Valley Highway. This subbasin has adequate sewer capacity for existing development. d. HEATHER DOWNS SUBBASIN The Heather Downs Subbasin is located along the eastern border of the current city limits. This 375-acre subbasin consists primarily of single-family residential development with some multi- family developments in the northern portion of this subbasin. The construction of the East Renton Interceptor and the rerouting of upstream flows have resolved previous capacity problems in this subbasin. A section of the Heather Downs Interceptor was constructed on a very steep slope (approximately 65% slope). The sewer section in question is located along a power line easement near the plat of Maplewood. The interceptor was constructed using 10-inch PVC sewer pipe with concrete collars to stabilize the pipe on the steep slope. No indication of potential structural failure exists. However, a study should be conducted to determine the integrity of the sanitary sewer. The City should video inspect this sewer to examine the internal integrity and to locate any pipe or manhole movement. If a problem is found, a geotechnical consultant could examine the steep slope for stability and the potential of soil shifting. This information will help determine the need for construction of an interceptor in a new alignment. e. ORCHARDS SUBBASIN This 375 acre subbasin is located primarily between NE 4th Street, Duvall Avenue NE, NE 9th Street, and Union Avenue NE. This area serves single-family and multi-family residential land uses. This subbasin flows into the East Renton Interceptor. The sewers in this subbasin are newer and there are no indications of capacity or structural problems. f. TIFFANY PARK SUBBASIN The Tiffany Park Subbasin is located on the south side of Cedar River. This 1,464-acre subbasin includes primarily single-family and multi-family developments. This subbasin includes two lift stations: the Falcon Ridge Lift Station and the Cottonwood Lift Station. In addition, this subbasin receives wastewater from the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. The Tiffany Park Interceptor is a joint use facility between the City of Renton and the Soos Creek Water and Sewer District (formerly Cascade Sewer District). The gravity interceptor is currently not experiencing capacity problems, and KING COUNTY's inverted siphon crossing the Cedar River was replaced by a new inverted siphon which is sized to accommodate these peak flows. 12/28/98 5-9 CHAPTER FIVE The majority of the wastewater in this interceptor originates in the Soos Creek system, including Soos Creeks Lift Station No. 5. According to the Soos Creek Comprehensive Sewer Plan, Lift Station No. 5 is considered to be a permanent facility which serves a large basin. As development of this basin proceeds, increased pumping from the lift station may cause capacity problems in the joint use facility. Monitoring of the flows needs to continue, in order to minimize risk. 3. LAKE WASHINGTON EAST BASIN The Lake Washington East Basin is located in the northern part of the City and includes the Kennydale Lakefront, Lake Washington, West Kennydale, East Kennydale, Honey Creek, Sunset, Stonegate, North Highlands,Presidents Park, South Highlands,Boeing Industrial, and North Renton areas of the City. The City serves this entire basin of 3,325 acres, which consists of a variety of land uses including single- family and multi-family residential, light commercial and heavy industrial activities. The wastewater collected in this basin is transported to KING COUNTY's East Side Interceptor at several connection points. The installation, in 1997, of the Sunset Interceptor allowed for the removal of the Sunset Lift Station. This interceptor was designed and installed by the City, with King County's (Metro) support, to relieve capacity concerns created by the County's delay in constructing the May Valley Interceptor. The Devil's Elbow Lift Station was rehabilitated in 1991, to provide reliability to the station and stabilize the location of the force main. The installation of the Sunset Interceptor removed the peek overflows, from the Sunset Lift Station,that used to flow to the Devil's Elbow Lift Station. a. KENNYDALE LAKEFRONT SUBBASIN The Kennydale Lakefront is the northernmost subbasin in the Lake Washington East Basin. This 235 acre subbasin serves primarily residential communities and includes the Lake Washington Flush Station and Lake Washington Lift Station No. 2, which serve the residential community adjacent to Lake Washington (Coleman Point). This subbasin, which has almost reached saturation development, connects into the King County Interceptor at three locations along Lake Washington Blvd. Those locations are near N. 36th St., N. 38th St. and N.40th St. The Kennydale Lakefront sanitary sewer collection system is a low-pressure, force main. Water from Lake Washington is pumped periodically into the force main through the Lake Washington flush station. Lake water and the sewage is discharged from this low-pressure force main into the Lake Washington No. 2 Lift Station, where it is then pumped into the KING COUNTY East Side Interceptor. The original force main was installed in 1972 and has a history of various problems and requires considerable maintenance. In 1986 the City attempted to improve the collection system through the installation of additional cleanouts on the low-pressure force main and the installation of plug valves on each of the individual side sewers, which could be closed during cleaning operations. This work was conducted under project No. S-442. Upon completion of the additions to the force main and side sewers, the City attempted to clean the low-pressure force main using a sewer pig. Even though the side-sewer plug valves were 5-10 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS closed, two homes were flooded out with backed-up wastewater. Since 1986 no further attempts have been made to thoroughly clean the low-pressure, force main. Since this part of the sewer system continues to require high maintenance, the City should continue examining alternatives that could reduce some of the maintenance and provide a more reliable and efficient system. b. LAKE WASHINGTON SUBBASIN The Lake Washington Subbasin, which is 170 acres in size, serves primarily residential uses, including both single-family and multi-family developments, along Lake Washington Boulevard and west of Interstate 405. The subbasin connects into the KING COUNTY East Side Interceptor at Lake Washington Boulevard, south of 28th Street. The sewers in this subbasin are newer and in good condition. The basin is largely developed and is not projected to create any capacity concerns. The sewer main in North 28th Place does, however, accept upstream flows from the West Kennydale, East Kennydale, and Honey Creek Subbasins. Modeling of this basin projects that this main does not have the capacity to handle full development of these subbasins. The Wastewater Utility should monitor the capacity of this line and program to upsize the mains. c. WEST KENNYDALE West Kennydale is a small, 136-acre subbasin serving single-family residential properties. The sewers in this subbasin are newer with the oldest being approximately twenty years old. Except for the Highgate Lift Station,there are not any current or future capacity concerns for this basin. The Highgate Lift Station has been scheduled for elimination with construction anticipated in 1999. As this subbasin, along with East Kennydale and Honey Creek Subbasins, becomes fully developed,the flows will cause a capacity concern in the Lake Washington Subbasin. d. EAST KENNYDALE East Kennydale is a small, 154-acre subbasin serving single-family residential properties. The sewers in this subbasin are newer with the oldest being approximately twenty years old. A large portion of this subbasin is not currently served by sewers. The Wastewater Utility is scheduled to begin installation of the East Kennydale Interceptor in early 1998. It is anticipated that the collector sewers will be installed by developer extension or Local Improvement District within five to ten years. The installation of the East Kennydale Interceptor will allow for the removal of the Azalea Lane Lift Station. There are not any current or future capacity concerns for this basin. As this subbasin, along with West Kennydale and Honey Creek Subbasins, becomes fully developed, the flows will cause a capacity concern in the Lake Washington Subbasin. e. HONEY CREEK SUBBASIN The Honey Creek Subbasin serves primarily residential uses, including both single-family and multi-family developments. The 239-acre Honey Creek subbasin is served by the Devil's Elbow Lift Station. This lift station currently pumps wastewater collected in the Honey Creek Subbasin into the East Kennydale Subbasin which flows into the Lake Washington Subbasin. The 12/28/98 5-11 CHAPTER FIVE Wastewater Utility is in the process of replacing this station and expects the project to be completed in early 1999. The Devil's Elbow Lift Station can be removed from service after completion of the May Valley Interceptor and the Honey Creek Interceptor. There are not any current or future capacity concerns for this basin. As this subbasin, along with West Kennydale and East Kennydale Subbasins, becomes fully developed, the flows will cause a capacity concern in the Lake Washington Subbasin. f. SUNSET SUBBASIN The 642-acre Sunset Subbasin serves single-family residential, multi-family residential and commercial developments. The portion of the subbasin inside the City Limits is primarily developed and connected to sanitary sewer. The portion of the subbasin outside of the City is partially developed with single family with on-site sewage disposal. The completion of the Sunset Interceptor and elimination of the Sunset Lift Station in 1997 removed the capacity concerns in this subbasin. The majority of the sewers in this subbasin are around thirty years old. g. STONEGATE SUBBASIN Stonegate is a small, 143-acre subbasin serving single-family residential properties. The sewers in this subbasin are newer with the oldest being approximately ten years old. The subbasin naturally flows toward May Valley. It is not anticipated that the May Valley Interceptor will be constructed within the six-year time frame of this plan. As this subbasin develops further, capacity may become a concern in the Summerwind and Stonegate Lift Stations. h. NORTH HIGHLAND SUBBASIN The North Highlands Subbasin serves a large area of approximately 527 acres. This basin includes both residential and commercial developments. A major portion of the sanitary sewer system in the North Highlands Subbasin was constructed during World War II. These older sewer systems are near the end of their useful life and require increased maintenance. The sewers in this subbasin are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. This subbasin does not have any current capacity concerns. The North Highlands Interceptor receives flows, via the Sunset Interceptor, from the Sunset and Stonegate Subbasins. The model shows sufficient capacity in the North Highlands Interceptor. However, at saturation development, the interceptor is close to capacity. The City should continue to monitor the North Highlands Interceptor as the upstream subbasins develop. 5-12 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS i. PRESIDENTS PARK SUBBASIN The Presidents Park Subbasin serves an area of approximately 301 acres. This basin serves residential developments. A major portion of the sanitary sewer system in the Presidents Park Subbasin is over forty years old. Investigation of the old concrete mains finds the lines in moderate shape with some localized structural problems and some inflow and infiltration. The City should provide some spot repairs or rehabilitation to extend the useful life of the entire system. This subbasin should be monitored for scheduling of replacement of the sewers. j. SOUTH HIGHLANDS SUBBASSIN The South Highlands Subbasin serves an area of approximately 84 acres. This basin includes both single family and duplex type residential developments. The Renton Technical College also is in this subbasin. A major portion of the sanitary sewer system in the South Highlands Subbasin was constructed during World War II. These older sewer systems are near the end of their useful life and require increased maintenance. The City should continue monitoring these sewers for need of replacement or rehabilitation. The sewers in this subbasin are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. The City replaced a portion of the sewers along the west side of the basin as interim capacity improvements prior to the installation of the East Renton Interceptor. This subbasin does not have any current capacity concerns. k. BOEING INDUSTRIAL SUBBASIN The 463-acre Boeing Subbasin is located on the south end of Lake Washington. It serves single- family residential east of Interstate 405 and the heavy industrial area north of Downtown. The sewers in this subbasin are approximately thirty years old. There are not any projected capacity concerns within this subbasin. The subbasin includes two lift stations: the Boeing Lift Station and the Lake Washington Beach Lift Station. The Boeing Lift Station was replaced in 1997. The pumping of sewage, by the Boeing Lift Station to the North Renton Subbasin, causes concern over capacity in the North Renton Interceptor as discussed in the section on that subbasin. 1. NORTH RENTON SUBBASIN The 251 acre North Renton Subbasin is located between the Cedar River, Interstate 405, N 4th Street, and N 8th Street. This subbasin consists of residential, commercial and heavy industrial land uses. Many sections of this subbasin were not modeled due to a lack of physical data. Severe capacity problems, at projected saturation, exist within the North Renton Interceptor along N 6th Street as 12/28/98 5-13 CHAPTER FIVE a direct result of receiving wastewater from the Sunset Interceptor and Boeing Lift Station. This subbasin connects into the KING COUNTY Interceptor at N 6th Street and Logan Avenue N. Records on the sewers in this subbasin are non-existent. Best estimate is that the majority of the pipes in this subbasin are over seventy years old. The City is scheduling to replace these lines in the year 2001. The Wastewater Utility should investigate rerouting the sewers in this subbasin to N 4th Street. The N.4th Street Interceptor has additional capacity due to the re-route of the King County Trunk to S. 3rd Street in 1996. If the City is able to route the North Renton sewers into the interceptor in N 4th it would reduce the capacity concerns in N 6th Street. 4. BLACK RIVER BASIN The Black River Basin is a large drainage basin in the southwest part of the City and includes the South Renton, Rolling Hills, Talbot Hill, Renton Industrial, Panther Creek, and Springbrook Subbasins. The higher elevations in the Rolling Hills, Talbot Hill, and Panther Creek areas are generally single-family and multi-family residential developments, while the valley floor is generally industrial and commercial land uses. The City serves approximately 4084 acres of this basin. a. SOUTH RENTON SUBBASIN The 290-acre South Renton Subbasin includes the commercial business district south of the Cedar River and the residential communities located on the Renton Scenic Hill. Currently no lift stations are located in this subbasin. The majority of the sewers in this subbasin are over fifty years old. The City has scheduled the replacement of the sewers between Main Avenue S and Burnett Avenue S for 1998-99. The older sewers on the Renton Scenic Hill are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. b. ROLLING HILLS SUBBASIN The 366-acre Rolling Hills Subbasin serves primarily single-family and multi-family communities. The pipe in this subbasin is fairly new, with the oldest being about twenty years old. There are not any structural or capacity problems associated with this subbasin. c. TALBOT HILL SUBBASIN The 520-acre Talbot Hills Subbasin serves primarily single-family and multi-family communities. A large portion of the pipe in this basin is about forty years old. These older pipes are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. d. PANTHER CREEK SUBBASIN The Panther Creek Subbasin is 1,053 acres in size. The portion of the subbasin within the City's sewer service area serves primarily residential uses, including both single-family and multi- family developments, and the commercial developments at and around Valley General Hospital. The majority of the subbasin connects into the KING COUNTY Interceptor at S 37th, near the Valley Freeway. The sewers in this subbasin are in good condition, with the majority being about 30 years old. 5-14 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS The Talbot Road Interceptor is the only line that has capacity concerns in this subbasin. This interceptor, which serves a majority of the Panther Creek Subbasin, may be undersized to service this area. As the subbasin develops, the City should continue to monitor this interceptor for capacity and need to upsize. The Panther Creek Subbasin includes the Talbot Crest Lift Station. This station is the only pneumatic ejector station in the City. In 1998, the Wastewater Utility is planning to evaluate refurbishing or replacing this station, in 1999, to improve reliability and make it consistent with the remaining stations in the City. e. SPRINGBROOK SUBBASIN This is a large subbasin with only 201 acres of it in Renton's Sewer Service Area. Renton obtained the sewer mains that allow us to serve the area in the 1991 interlocal agreement with Soos Creek Water and Sewer District. This agreement defines service area boundaries and results in joint use of the Springbrook Interceptor which serves the Springbrook Subbasin. Renton is responsible for the portion of the Interceptor within City Limits and Soos Creek is responsible for the portion of the Interceptor outside of the City There are not any existing capacity or structural concerns in this subbasin. As the subbasin develops, capacity constraints in the Springbrook interceptor may become a concern. The 1991 agreement identifies capacity limits for both Renton and Soos Creek. Based upon these limits, the agency who is over capacity is responsible for improvements to provide the additional capacity. f. RENTON INDUSTRIAL SUBBASIN The 1,653-acre Renton Industrial Subbasin includes the area south of Interstate 405 and west of the East Valley Freeway. This area is also called the Orillia Industrial District. This subbasin includes the Lind Avenue and East Valley Lift Stations. Many areas within the subbasin are only sparsely developed at this time. This area was originally developed for light industry and warehousing; however, as part of the 1995 Comprehensive Plan Update, areas previously zoned light industrial have been changed to commercial zones. This zoning change may lead to increased demands on the existing sewer systems. Consequently, the City should periodically re- examine wastewater flow rates in order to better evaluate sanitary sewer needs. 5. LAKE WASHINGTON WEST BASIN The Lake Washington West Basin is located in the northwest part of the City. The basin is bordered to the east by the Cedar River and to the south by SW Sunset Boulevard. For the purposes of this study, the City is looking at all or parts of four subbasins that encompass approximately 968 acres. These subbasins consist of primarily single-family, multi-family, and commercial land uses. This basin primarily transports wastewater east into the KING COUNTY East Side Interceptor. This study is looking at four subbasins: the West Hill Subbasin, North Earlington Subbasin, South Earlington Subbasin, and the West Renton Subbasin. Bryn Mawr-Lakeridge Water and Sewer District and Skyway Water and Sewer District also provide sewer service within the Lake Washington West Basin. 12/28/98 5-15 CHAPTER FIVE a. WEST HILL SUBBASIN The 321-acre West Hill Subbasin serves the residential communities on the West Hill north of Renton Avenue South. The subbasin includes the Airport Lift Station located at the City of Renton Airport. Potential for additional development within the city limits in this subbasin is minimal. Some areas were not modeled in this subbasin due to a lack of physical data. Data which is available is suspect, due to extensive sewer reconstruction, rehabilitation, and the age of the sewers. The sewer system which was modeled appears to have sufficient sewer capacity. b. SOUTH EARLINGTON SUBBASIN The South Earlington Subbasin is a moderate sized basin that is bounded on the south by SW Sunset Boulevard and on the north by the Seattle Pipeline Right-of-Way at S 134th Street. For this study we will look at approximately 234 acres of this subbasin. The majority of the sewers in this subbasin are almost fifty years old. Renton's Inflow and Infiltration Study (Brown and Caldwell, March 1995) identifies this subbasin as the worst for I & I. This high I & I is a major contributor to the projected downstream capacity concerns. These older sewers are on the City's list of highest priority sewers for evaluation of replacement. They need to be evaluated for structural condition and for the ability to reduce the need for downstream replacements due to capacity constraints. c. WEST RENTON SUBBASIN The West Renton subbasin serves the residential community and the commercial district between Rainier Avenue South, Burnett Avenue South, South 3`d Street and the Airport. This subbasin is approximately 181 acres. The sewer model shows that, under current system conditions, there will very likely be capacity problems in the West Renton Interceptor, at saturation development. These capacity problems would be primarily a result of the high rate of inflow and infiltration in the upstream subbasin(s). The existing interceptor is approximately 3,700 lineal feet of 12-inch and 15-inch sanitary sewer. If the sewers in the South Earlington Subbasin are replaced, the flows in the West Renton Interceptor, at saturation development, should be around capacity and some minor improvements may be necessary. If the sewers in the South Earlington Subbasin are not replaced, the City should examine the possibility of increasing the size of this interceptor or providing additional interceptors in this basin. d. NORTH EARLINGTON SUBBASIN The North Earlington Subbasin is a moderate sized basin that is bounded on the south by the Seattle Pipeline Right-of-Way at S 134th Street and on the north by the Renton Avenue corridor. For this study we will look at approximately 232 acres of this subbasin. This Basin includes the Earlington Lift Station. This lift station is approximately 30 years old. Its primary function is to provide service to the Black River High School. 5-16 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS The majority of the study area in this subbasin is unserved at this time. Service of this subbasin would require construction of an interceptor(i.e. Renton Avenue Interceptor) or improvements to the Earlington Lift Station. 6. DUWAMISH ESTUARY BASIN The Duwamish Estuary Basin is located in the western portion of the City and includes the immediate area surrounding KING COUNTY's EDRP Facility. This basin also includes a portion of the Skyway Water and Sewer District. This study is looking at approximately 713 acres within this basin. The valley floor primarily consists of light industrial and commercial land uses. The hillside consists of multi-family and single-family residential developments. This basin includes the Earlington Woods and Duwamish Estuary Subbasins. a. EARLINGTON WOODS SUBBASIN The 76-acre Earlington Woods Subbasin serves the residential area along the south side of SW Sunset Boulevard and the commercial uses in Renton Center. The sewers in this subbasin are newer, with the oldest only about fifteen years old. There are not any structural or capacity concerns in this subbasin. b. DUWAMISH ESTUARY SUBBASIN The 635-acre Duwamish Estuary Subbasin includes the industrial and commercial uses between SW Grady Way and SW Sunset Boulevard. A large percentage of the sewers in this subbasin are over thirty years old. There are not any structural or capacity concerns in this subbasin. D. LIFT STATIONS This plan evaluated lift stations against the standards and guidelines for construction of sewage lift stations that are detailed in Chapter 3 of the "Criteria for Sewage Works Design" manual prepared by the Washington State Department of Ecology. This chapter includes design standards and guidelines for lift station location, pump sizing and selection, wet well sizing criteria, alarm system, emergency response criteria, force main criteria, lighting and ventilation. These standards and guidelines have been established to ensure protection of the environment and property through design and operation of reliable sewage lift stations. The City of Renton has 21 sewage lift stations, which are shown and inventoried in FIGURE 4. Each station was inspected for safety and accessibility, and operation and maintenance manuals for each were reviewed at the City Shops. The results of these inspections are presented in the following paragraphs, and the lift station inventory summaries are presented in TABLE V-1. Detailed Lift Station Data Sheets are provided in Appendix A. With few exceptions, these lift stations have no major inadequacies in terms of safety or reliability. All of Renton's active lift stations are controlled by a digital based Remote Telemetry Unit (RTU) that is connected, via radio, to a Master Telemetry Unit (MTU.) at the City Maintenance Shops. The RTU's allow custom control to match the characteristics of each station. The telemetry system also provides alarm capability for the lift stations. Alarms would be activated for power failure, pump failure, high wetwell level, low wetwell level as well as other items of concern. The Alarm system is connected to an auto-dialer to notify staff, by pager,during off-hours. 12/28/98 5-17 CHAPTER FIVE 1. LIFT STATION NO. 1 -AIRPORT The Airport Lift Station is located on the east side of West Perimeter Road within the airport property. This facility is a fiberglass, wet well mounted, duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. This facility serves the airport facility along West Perimeter Road. The lift station is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. 2. LIFT STATION NO. 2-AZALEA LANE The Azalea Lane Lift Station is located on the east side of Aberdeen Ave NE, south of NE 24th St. This facility is a fiberglass, wet well mounted, duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system and serves the communities east of the lift station. The lift station is in good condition and has proven to be reliable although it experiences periodic flooding. An overflow pipe connects the storm sewer system to the lift station wet well. As a result, during peak storm events the lift station is required to pump both wastewater and stormwater. The Azalea Lane Lift Station will be removed following the completion of the East Kennydale Interceptor in 1998-99. 3. LIFT STATION NO. 3 -BAXTER The Baxter Lift Station is located in the J.H. Baxter and Co. pole yard near NE 44th Street adjacent to the railroad tracks. This facility is a recessed, wet well mounted, duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. The station serves the mill, owned by the J.H. Baxter and Company, and the community along the lake north of NE 44th Street. The lift station is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. There is a creosote smell in the lift station originating from wastewater generated at the mill. Access to this facility is through the pole yard and is made difficult during rainy periods. Obtaining replacement parts for this station is a problem. Due to recent re-zoning of this property and development interest for a mixed use development (commercial & multi-family), this station needs to be evaluated for either rehabilitation or replacement. 4. LIFT STATION NO.4-BOEING The Boeing Lift Station is located on the northeast corner of N. 8th Street and Park Avenue N. The forcemain was replaced in 1995 as part of the Park Avenue Street Project. At that time, the forcemain was relocated to N 8th Street where it connects to the gravity system at N 8th Street and Garden Avenue N. The Boeing Lift Station was replaced, in 1996, with a new submersible duplex lift station using the existing wetwell. The existing wetwell was rehabilitated as part of the replacement. When the station was replaced,the City installed a flow meter to track usage for billing purposes. 5. LIFT STATION NO. 5 -COTTONWOOD The Cottonwood Lift Station is located west of the Riviera Apartments, south of the Maple Valley Highway. This facility serves the area between the Maple Valley Highway and the Cedar River, east of the Stoneway concrete facilities. The lift station was replaced, in 1994, with a submersible pump duplex station in a new wetwell. The forcemain was also replaced at that time. 5-18 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS& RESULTS 6. LIFT STATION NO. 6-DENNY'S The Denny's Lift Station is located on the east side of Lake Washington Boulevard next to the Denny's restaurant. This facility is a fiberglass, wet well mounted, duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. This facility serves the Denny's restaurant, is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. The lift station does experience some problems due to grease discharges from the restaurant and flooding during peak storm events. Replacement parts for the USEMCO pumps are hard to find. 7. LIFT STATION NO. 7-DEVIL'S ELBOW The Devil's Elbow Lift Station is located at the unimproved intersection of NE 27th Street and 120th Place SE adjacent to Honey Creek. This facility is a wet well mounted duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system, which is housed in a fiberglass building. The lift station is in fair condition, but is susceptible to vandalism even though the site has a chain-link fence because of its remote location. This lift station will be taken off-line and removed when the Honey Creek Interceptor and May Valley Interceptor are completed. The Devil's Elbow Lift Station was designed in conjunction with the Honey Creek Interceptor in 1986. According to the Engineering Report, the lift station was intended to be an interim facility until the May Valley Interceptor was constructed. The Honey Creek Interceptor was designed to meet saturation flow conditions from the Honey Creek Basin. However, according to the Engineering Report, the Devil's Elbow Lift Station was designed to meet existing conditions and not to provide a log-term solution for this subbasin. Each pump within the Devil's Elbow Lift Station is designed for 450 gallons per minutes. The Devil's Elbow Lift Station pumps into the Kennydale Subbasin near the intersection of Edmonds Avenue NE and NE 27th Street The installation of the Sunset Interceptor has taken the capacity pressure off the Devil's Elbow Lift Station. The City is in the process of designing a replacement For the Devil's Elbow Station. The new duplex station will utilize wet well mounted submersible pumps and be constructed to minimize vandalism. A new force main will be constructed to connect to the end of the East Kennydale interceptor at NE 24th Street. This work is anticipated to be completed in 1999. 8. LIFT STATION NO. 8 -EARLINGTON SCHOOL The Earlington School Lift Station is located on the southwest side of S. Langston Road between S 132nd Street and S 134th Street. This facility is a duplex wet well/dry well lift station with an 8-inch overflow bypass. This facility serves the Black River High School. The lift station is in good condition, but has poor access and is difficult to keep clean due to its location on the gravel shoulder. The lift station will be taken off-line and removed when wastewater from this area is diverted by gravity through the future Renton Avenue Interceptor. The electrical equipment needs some rehabilitation and improvements. 12/28/98 5-19 CA C) 1 ba 0 %.• tll TABLE V-1: LIFT STATION INVENTORY SUMMARY '211 FM Pump Emerg.

LIFT STATION NO. 9 -EAST VALLEY The East Valley Lift Station is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of SW 34th Street and the East Valley Road. This facility is a duplex wet well/dry well configuration with a single vacuum priming system. This facility serves the commercial areas north and west of the lift station. The lift station is in generally poor condition. The single vacuum priming system does not allow complete redundancy; this means that the lift station will not operate if there is a failure of the vacuum priming system. Since this lift station is considered to be permanent, it is recommended that this lift station be rehabilitated to make it more reliable. 10. LIFT STATION NO. 10-FALCON RIDGE The Falcon Ridge Lift Station is located at the east end of SE 8th Street in the plat of Falcon Ridge. This facility is a fiberglass enclosed, wet well mounted duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system, which is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. The force main associated with this station is long and has an excessively high head. This lift station may be taken off-line and removed after the development of the Parker property and completion of the Falcon Ridge Interceptor. Wastewater would then flow by gravity directly to KING COUNTY's Cedar River Interceptor. 11. LIFT STATION NO. 11 -HIGHGATE The Highgate Lift Station is located on the south side of NE 20th Street between Jones Avenue NE and Aberdeen Avenue NE. This facility is a fiberglass enclosed, wet well mounted duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. It serves the communities along NE 20th Street. This lift station will be taken off-line and removed when wastewater from this area is diverted by gravity through the future extension of the West Kennydale Interceptor. 12. LIFT STATION NO. 12-HONEY CREEK The Honey Creek Lift Station is located on the south side of NE 17th Place near the eastern cul-de-sac. This facility is a recessed wet well mounted duplex lift station with centrifugal pumps. This facility can serve the plat of Honey Creek Park. It is in poor condition and has been placed on standby since the construction of the Honey Creek Interceptor. Both pumps are operational but the station should not be considered reliable enough for anything but emergency usage. The City is planning to abandon this station once the Devil's Elbow Lift Station is replaced. 13. LIFT STATION NO. 13 -LAKE WASHINGTON BEACH The Lake Washington Beach Lift Station is located in the parking lot at Coulon Beach Park. This facility is a duplex wet well/dry well lift station which serves the restroom facilities at the park. The lift station is in good condition. The pumps have become blocked regularly as a result of hand towels being flushed down the toilets. To eliminate this problem the Parks Department has installed hand dryers in the restrooms at the park. 12/28/98 5-21 CHAPTER FIVE 14. LIFT STATION NO. 14-LAKE WASHINGTON FLUSH The Lake Washington Flush Lift Station is located at the south end of Mountain View Avenue North. The facility is a submersible, non-clogging pump for pumping lake water into the gravity sewer along the Kennydale lakefront for flushing purposes. The low-pressure sewer then discharges into Lake Washington No. 2 Lift Station. The lift station is in fair condition and is reliable. This section of sanitary sewer should be studied separately and alternatives developed, which may eliminate the need for this flush station. 15. LIFT STATION NO. 15 -LAKE WASHINGTON NO. 2 The Lake Washington No. 2 Lift Station is located at the north end of the Kennydale Beach Park Road. This facility serves lakefront properties west of the railroad tracks in the Kennydale area. The Lake Washington No. 2 Lift Station was replaced in 1994. The new station is a submersible pump duplex station in a rehabilitated wetwell. Improvements to access and site stabilization were also done as part of the replacement project. The forcemain was not replaced at that time. 16. LIFT STATION NO. 16-LIND AVENUE The Lind Avenue Lift Station is located on the west side of Lind Avenue SW near the intersection with SW 19th Street. This facility is a triplex, wet well/dry well lift station which serves the commercial and industrial areas in the vicinity of the lift station. The lift station was upgraded to a triplex station in 1983 and is in good condition. 17. LIFT STATION NO. 17 -MISTY COVE The Misty Cove Lift Station is located on the west side of Ripley Lane North in the plat of Misty Cove. This facility is a recessed, wet well mounted, duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. This facility serves the lakefront properties west of the railroad near where May Creek enters the lake. The lift station is in fair condition. A hoist is required to remove the manhole cover for access into the lift station. The Misty Cove Lift Station pumps to the Baxter Lift Station which has smaller wet well. For this reason a lockout has been placed on the Misty Cove Lift Station, which is engaged when the high level alarm at the Baxter Lift Station is activated. This station will be evaluated at the same time as Baxter Lift Station. 18. LIFT STATION NO. 18 -STONEGATE The Stonegate Lift Station is located on NE 26th St.just west of 148th Avenue SE. The station is on the north side of the road in an open space tract. This facility is a fiberglass enclosed, wet well mounted duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. The facility serves the entire plat of Stonegate. This station is dependent on the Summer Wind Lift Station to relay the sewage from this subbasin to the gravity system. Preliminary analysis shows that the pumps can handle the flows produced by the full development of the subbasin. Additional development storage capacity at this station may be required for future development. 5-22 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS 19. LIFT STATION NO. 19-SUMMER WIND The Summer Wind Lift Station is located in a fenced, storm-drainage retention area located off the cul- de-sac on NE 23rd Street. This facility is a fiberglass enclosed, wet well mounted duplex lift station with a duplex vacuum priming system. This facility serves the east half of the plat of Summer Wind. The lift station is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. The new Stonegate Lift Station pumps into the Summer Wind Lift Station. It is anticipated that the Stonegate pumps would regulate the additional flows. The Summer Wind station has the capability of handling its own service area as well as the effluent pumped by the current Stonegate pumps. 20. LIFT STATION NO.20-TALBOT CREST The Talbot Crest Lift Station is located on the west side of Talbot Crest Drive. This facility is a dual, pneumatic ejector, lift station with an 8-inch overflow bypass. This facility serves the plat of Talbot Crest. The lift station is in good condition and has proven to be reliable. The equipment in the station is old and obsolete. It is also the only pneumatic ejector station in the City. The City should consider rebuilding this station to make it consistent with the rest of the stations. The lift station has a tendency to collect condensation in the air chamber which must be removed periodically. 21. LIFT STATION NO. 21 -WESTVIEW The Westview Lift Station is located on the west side of Monterey Avenue NE. This facility is a duplex submersible lift station designed to serve the twelve lot Westview Plat. Unless a gravity line is installed from Park Drive,this station should be considered a permanent station. 22. PRIVATE LIFT STATIONS There are also privately owned and maintained lift stations within the City's service area: Lift Station Location Owner •Pelly Avenue North near North 7th Boeing Company •East Perimeter Road(north of Logan) Boeing Company 'West Perimeter Road and South Perimeter Road Airport Utility •Aberdeen Avenue NE(1000 block) Renton Ridge Apts. •148th Avenue SE opposite North 10th(Apollo School) Issaquah School Dist. •NE 29th Street(Near Kennewick P1) Canyon Oaks Condos 'Puget Drive near Rolling Hills Private Development •Tukwila Lift Station near KING COUNTY EDRP City of Tukwila •1901 SW 19th Street Hunter Douglas 'Lincoln Ave NE and NE 40th St. Williamsburgh Condominiums •SW Grady Way-west of Oakesdale(Uresco) King Co. (Metro) New private lift stations must meet city standards 12/28/98 5-23 CHAPTER FIVE E. TELEMETRY AND CONTROL SYSTEM In 1996 the City replaced the existing telemetry system. Each lift station is controlled by a Remote Telemetry Unit(RTU)to allow custom control to match the characteristics of each individual lift station. The RTU's are programmable controllers programmed in basic programming language. The RTU monitors the control at the lift station and provides secure and accurate information about the operating conditions. A Master Telemetry Unit (MTU) polls each lift station RTU and feeds the data to the Master Computer via Modbus communication link. The new system is digital, signal-based, using a high security, binary coded decimal for telemetry transmission. The system runs on IBM compatible computers. The system uses radio transmission for communication. The telemetry system information is managed from a Master computer. Wonderware Intouch Person- Machine Interface software is used at the master computer for displaying the data graphically on screen. The master computer displays wet well sewage levels and time to overflow data for all of the City's active lift stations. This information can be used to help manage the lift stations in a Citywide power interruption that could occur after a natural catastrophe. The telemetry system can be monitored and controlled by a remote computer link using specialized software. Control of the facilities is accomplished in a distributed format, wherein the master computer provides pump run set points that are based on optimal, pump operating conditions, and also locks out various lift stations during high-level alarms from various downstream lift stations. All other control is initiated from the RTU, including pump start/stop from the level transducer, back-up pump control from the float switches and station alarms. The system uses strain gauge, level transducers that are suspended in the wet well for primary pump control and uses float switches for back-up pump control in the event of transducer failure. Pump discharge flow rates are mathematically synthesized by measuring the time it takes to empty a known volume of the wet well. The engineering and system status information that is presented at the City Shops is available in real time format at City Hall using a modem. This allows the engineering and planning staff access to system information without disrupting the maintenance staff. The computer and data storage system is compatible with the water data logger to provide redundant data storage and to provide hot standby fail over controllers. Operating data from each lift station is stored on the master computer for record and later use. This information is used in a comprehensive maintenance program to help eliminate costly station down time that can often cause damage to adjacent property owners and the environment. The control algorithms located on the Master Computer and the RTU's can be used as trend analysis to detect possible problems earlier. The master telemetry unit, located at the City Shop, includes an intelligent telephone dialer alarm systems, so that critical alarms can be relayed to on-duty maintenance personnel, even during a telemetry system failure. 5_24 12/28/98 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS F. WASTEWATER QUALITY The quality of wastewater transported in the Renton sanitary sewer system varies considerably depending on the wastewater source, detention time within the sanitary sewer system and the volume of infiltration and inflow. This chapter discusses several aspects of wastewater quality and will recommend measures to control or eliminate wastewater quality problems. 1. DOMESTIC WASTEWATER The quality of domestic wastewater varies and is a direct result of the type of water used within the home. Some domestic sewage can be considered stronger than others can. One household appliance, the garbage disposal, can greatly impact the quality of wastewater. Most new home construction incorporates garbage disposal in its design. Use of these garbage disposals increases both suspended solids and the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), two common results tested for when measuring contaminant concentrations. A second major determinant of quality of wastewater is the volume of infiltration and inflow into the sewer system. High rates of infiltration and inflow will tend to dilute the contaminant concentration of the wastewater. 2. INDUSTRIAL WASTE Industrial wastes deserve special attention because they can exhibit a wide variety of chemical constituents. The total volume of industrial waste produced within the City of Renton is small compared with the volume of domestic wastewater. However, an industrial or commercial development can have a considerable impact on the sanitary sewer collection system immediately downstream of the facility. Industrial waste can contain high concentrations of chemicals which can make the waste highly corrosive or toxic. A list of the industries located within the City of Renton is provided in TABLE V-2. If discharge of an industrial waste to the sanitary sewer system creates problems, then pretreatment of the industrial waste should be considered. Several federal, state, and local regulations govern the pretreatment of industrial waste. Several industries within the City have obtained National Pollution Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) permits. The City should assume that those who require permits have them and should rely on the Department of Ecology to fulfill its monitoring responsibilities. According to Department of Ecology records, no violations of NPDES permits involving sanitary sewer discharges have been reported recently. 3. WASTEWATER QUALITY PROBLEMS A major problem associated with wastewater quality is the generation of hydrogen sulfide that occurs during wastewater transport from its source to the point of treatment. The hydrogen sulfide found in wastewater results from the anaerobic bacterial reduction of the sulfate ions that are present. Hydrogen sulfide poses three serious problems: it is highly corrosive, has an obnoxious odor, and as a gas is toxic to humans and has been known to cause death to sewer maintenance workers. The production of hydrogen sulfide is directly related to the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of the wastewater. Wastewater exhibiting a high BOD will tend to generate more hydrogen sulfide than wastewater exhibiting a lower BOD; therefore, excessive infiltration and inflow will tend to reduce the production of hydrogen sulfide in the wastewater. 12/28/98 5-25 N n tJ ► b ti TABLE V-2:DISCHARGE PERMITS AND DISCHARGE AUTHORIZATIONS IN THE CITY OF RENTON ;:i PERMIT PERMIT NUMBER COMPANY NAME ADDRESS EXPIRATION INDUSTRIAL CATAGORY uzl Facilities With Waste Discharge Permits 7630 Boeing Commercial Airplane Renton 8th and Logan Avenue North 31-Dec-02 433 7508 Boeing Electronics Company Renton 600 SW 39th Street 9-Mar-02 433 PSNS 7645 G&K Services 1001 SW 34th Street 30-Mar-99 Industrial Laundry 7627 Kenworth Truck Company 1601 North 8th Street 7-May-98 433 PSNS 7685 Puget Sound Energy(Golder Assoc.) 915 S Grady Way 4-Sep-02 Contaminated Utility Vault Facilities With Waste Discharge Authorization 227 Acme Poultry-Renton 600 SW 7th Street 23-May-00 Poultry Processing 560 Circle K Company(BP Branded Retail Facility 11053) 2022 South Puget Drive 17-Jun-02 Groundwater Remediation-Gasoline 606 Exxon Stn#7-6929(EA Engineering,Science&Technology) 3100 Benson Road S(Soos Creek Sewer) 20-Mar-03 Soil Remediation-Petroleum 430 Group Health Cooperative-DSSF Facility 801 SW 16th Street 18-Mar-00 Groundwater Remediation-Gasoline 123 Jefferson Smurfit Corporation 601 Monster Road SW 7-Jul-02 Carton Printing 508 K&N Meats-Renton 600 Powell Avenue SW 12-May-00 Meat Processing 610 King County-Bryn Mawr Siphon Construction Project N 6th Street&Burnett 17-Mar-03 Construction Dewatering 408 King County Public Works-Road Division-Renton 155 Monroe Avenue NE 8-Jan-03 Decant Station 359 King County Solid Waste-Renton Transfer Station 3021 NE 4th Street 11-Apr-02 Solid Waste Transfer Station 264 Mobil Oil Corporation(Lind Avenue SW) 2423 Lind Avenue SW 2-Feb-00 Groundwater Remediation-Gasoline 292 PACCAR,Incorporated(Hart Crowser) 1400 N 4th Street 2-Jan-00 Construction Dewatering 367 Renton Radiator 3217 SE 6th Street 1-May-02 Radiator Repair 388 Service Linen Supply 903 S 4th Street 1-Sep-02 Linen Cleaning 591 Stoneway Concrete-Black River Quarry Site 6900 S Beacon Coal Mine Road 1-Nov-98 Portable Concrete Batch Plant 231 Stoneway Concrete-Renton 1915 Maple Valley Highway 11-May-00 Ready Mix Batch Plant 460 Texaco Environmental Services-Bronson Way 1408 N Bronson Way 5-May-99 Groundwater Remediation-Gasoline 501 The Southland Corporation 1520 Duvall Avenue NE 21-Mar-00 Groundwater Remediation-Gasoline 523 Tosco 621 Rainier Avenue S 26-Oct-00 Groundwtr Remediation-Petro Hydrocarbons 261 Tosco Northwest Company 2423 Lind Avenue SW 12-Jan-01 Contaminated Storm Water Treatment N co Oo 9/17/88 1 SYSTEM ANALYSIS&RESULTS Hydrogen sulfide is very corrosive to both sewers and pumping facilities. Hydrogen sulfide released from the wastewater will tend to dissolve on condensation within the crown of a sanitary sewer. The hydrogen sulfide retained in the condensation is converted to sulfuric acid through oxidation by aerobic bacteria. This sulfuric acid will react with the cement bonding material within concrete pipes, or iron within steel pipes, and can corrode a pipe to the point of structural failure. Sanitary sewer pipes are most susceptible to this type of corrosion in their crowns because that is where most condensation occurs. Aeration, periodic cleaning, and use of non-corrosive pipe materials can control effects of hydrogen sulfide. If excessive hydrogen sulfide production is evident at a lift station, aeration of the wet well should be considered to reduce the hydrogen sulfide in the wastewater and reduce the effects of anaerobic bacteria which produce the hydrogen sulfide. Periodic cleaning of the sanitary sewers will also remove the biological slime that forms on the pipe walls and produces the hydrogen sulfide. The most effective method of mitigating corrosion by hydrogen sulfide is through the use of non-corrosive pipe materials, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Existing pipes experiencing severe corrosion can be rehabilitated through the use of various slip form liners or fiberglass resin liners. In order to control the generation of hydrogen sulfide, the City's maintenance crews routinely flush and clean sewer pipes with inadequate slopes. In addition, all pipes are cleaned before video inspection is performed. Both of these tasks reduce biological growth on the walls of the sewer pipes and reduce the hydrogen sulfide generation potential. 12/28/98 5-27 , .:-:,;,,-,:,.. r CH,�PTER VI .r $ RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS ,„ oa �' o ________________ - ,o c J LVu o 4 . .� µµy V� n ;� � — Cli — •1 Q d o �' , . — 4','15 ' N s, ."--- .:4 -1"- - / 00111117 N. ;1 1, +lf o r Cr CHAPTER VI RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the proposed improvements to the Renton sewer system that are necessary to correct existing deficiencies, replace existing deteriorated facilities and accommodate growth. The costs of the improvements and a schedule for implementing them are also included. This Capital Improvements Program is designed, along with the entire comprehensive plan, to be used as a guideline in preparing the capital improvements project list during each yearly budget process. This plan is deliberately intended to be flexible by allowing incorporation of necessary changes that might arise. Many of the proposed improvements are considered to be preventive in nature,i.e.,the improvement is intended to happen before a specific facility has failed,a far more desirable process than trying to replace facilities after they fail. Since it is impossible to estimate when a facility will fail, the process of identifying those facilities that are at risk and planning corrective measures must continue. B. CIP RANKINGS The complexity of the City's wastewater utility system requires a method that systematically determines which improvements should be undertaken sooner than others. To assign rankings to the planned improvements,each one was analyzed according to these general categories: Substandard Facility,System Efficiency,and Environmental Protection. Each category was further divided into four or more kinds of improvements or standards. Each of these sub-categorize was assigned a number of points, with the rule that no one improvement could be given more than eight points in any of the three categories. For each sub- category,each proposed project was given one point if it provided the benefit described and two points if it provided a solution to an acute problem. The higher the number of points an improvement received, the greater its benefit, or the greater its ability to meet certain standards or policies. This systematic ranking will help direct resources and activities to the appropriate projects. The results of the systematic ranking are presented in TABLE VI-I. 12/28/98 6-1 CHAPTER SIX TABLE VI-1:RANKING SUMMARY OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT PROPOSED SUBSTANDARD SYSTEM ENVIRONMENTAL TOTAL NUMBER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FACILITIES EFFICIENCY PROTECTION RANKING SYSTEM WIDE 1.01 Miscellaneous Sewer Replacement 6 1 4.5 11.5 1.02 Lift Station Electrical Rehabilitation 6 2 0 8 1.03 Sanitary Sewer Grouting and Rehabilitation 3 2 2.5 7.5 1.04 GIS Database and Conversion 1 2 0 3 1.05 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan 0 1 0 1 WEST CEDAR RIVER BASIN 2.01 Windsor Hill Sewer Replacement 3 2 2.5 7.5 2.02 Falcon Ridge Lift Station Elimination 1 2 2 5 2.03 Cottonwood Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 2.04 Falcon Ridge Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 EAST CEDAR RIVER BASIN 3.01 East Cedar River Collection System 3 0 5 8 LAKE WASHINGTON EAST BASIN 4.01 North Highlands Sewer Replacement 4 2 3 9 4.02 Ridgecrest Sewer Replacement 6 1 2 9 4.03 South Highlands Sewer Replacement 4 2 3 9 4.04 North Renton Sewer Replacement Phase I 4 2 2 8 4.05 Kennydale Lakefront Sewer Replacement 4 1 3 8 4.06 Presidents Park Sewer Replacement Ph I 4 2 2 8 4.07 Highgate Lift Station Elimination 3 1 3 7 4.08 North Renton Sewer Replacement Phase II 3 2 2 7 4.09 Honeydew Sewer Replacement 2 1 3 6 4.10 Aberdeen Ave NE Sewer Main Ext.(12th to 24th) 0 0 6 6 4.11 Duvall Ave NE Sewer Main Extension 0 0 6 6 4.12 Union Ave NE Sewer Main Extension 0 0 6 6 4.13 Sierra Heights Collection Sewers Phase II 1 0 5 6 4.14 Presidents Park Sewer Replacement Ph II 2 1 2 5 4.15 Sunset NE Sewer Replacement(N 4th to Park PI) 2 1 2.5 5.5 4.16 North Renton Interceptor Replacement 4 0 1 5 4.17 Honey Creek Interceptor Phase IV 2 1 1 4 4.18 Devil's Elbow Lift Station Elimination 2 2 1 5 4.19 Lake Washington Blvd.Sewer(2900 Block) 3 0 0 3 4.20 Summerwind Lift Station Rehabilitation 1 1 0 2 4.21 Lake Washington Beach Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 4.22 Lake Washington No 2 Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 6-2 12/28/98 RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS TABLE VI-1:RANKING SUMMARY OF PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT PROPOSED SUBSTANDARD SYSTEM ENVIRONMENTAL TOTAL NUMBER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FACILITIES EFFICIENCY PROTECTION RANKING BLACK RIVER BASIN 5.01 Oakesdale Avenue Connections 0 0 0 0 5.02 South Renton Sewer Replacement Phase II 5 2 2 9 5.03 Renton Hill Sewer Replacement 4 2 2 8 5.04 Talbot Hill Sewer Replacement 3 2 2 7 5.05 Talbot Crest Lift Station Replacement 3 2 1 6 5.06 Thunder Hill Interceptor Replacement 4 1 1 6 5.07 East Valley Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 5.08 Benson Road Interceptor 1 1 1 3 5.09 SW 34th Street Interceptor Replacement 2 0 0 2 5.10 Talbot Road Interceptor Replacement 2 0 0 2 5.11 Lind Avenue Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 0 3 LAKE WASHINGTON WEST BASIN 6.01 CBD Sewer Replacement Phase IV 5 2 2 9 6.02 Earlington Lift Station Elimination 5 2 2 9 6.03 Earlington Lift Station Replacement 5 2 2 9 6.04 Earlington Hill Sewer Replacement 4 2 2 8 6.05 West Hill Sewer Replacement 3 2 2 7 6.06 Renton Avenue Interceptor 2 1 3 6 6.07 North Earlington Collection System 1 0 5 6 6.08 Airport Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 2 0 4 MAY VALLEY BASIN 8.01 Misty Cove/Baxter Lift Station Replacement 4 2 2 8 8.02 Denny's Lift Station Rehabilitation 2 1 1 4 8.03 May Valley Interceptor Phase II 2 1 1 4 12/28/98 6-3 CHAPTER SIX 1.

The project rankings do not take into consideration engineering judgment or scheduling of dependent projects. Engineering judgment involves the trained observation of non-quantifiable impacts of a project. The scheduling of projects involves determining which projects must be completed before other projects can begin. For these reasons, the project ranking is best used as one of many tools to establish a Capital Improvement Program. TABLE VI-2 presents the project priority along with brief comments regarding any inconsistency between the project ranking and the project priority. C. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT DESCRIPTIONS A list of all the proposed capital improvements,organized by drainage basin,follows. A brief description of the specific system deficiency and its improvement are included. System improvements are presented in this chapter in the following order: • A list of each proposed improvement by basin with a brief description of the criteria used, the estimated current cost of the improvement, and the recommended years for construction. • A summary of improvements by priority(TABLE VI-2). • A summary of improvements by project type(TABLE VI-3). • A summary of the estimated project costs and a schedule for implementation. (TABLE VI- 4A&VI-4B). • A summary of funding sources for each proposed improvement(TABLE VI-5A&VI-5B) In addition,the recommended improvements are shown in plan view in FIGURE 8. 6-8 12/28/98 RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS 1. SYSTEM WIDE IMPROVEMENTS Miscellaneous Sewer Projects and Emergency Repairs System Deficiency: This project is to perform small repairs, replacements, or installations of sewers that are not scheduled in the CIP but become a priority due to unexpected problems, failure, or coordination with other projects. Improvement: Identify and perform non-scheduled work as necessary. CIP Project No. 1.01 Cost: $1,500,000 Priority:A Beginning: 1998 Completion: 2018 Lift Station Electrical Rehabilitation System Deficiency: Many of our lift stations were built prior to the existing electrical codes. There are components in these stations that do not meet the new code requirements. Among other code conditions not met, some of our lift stations do not meet requirements for 'lock out/tag out'. These stations present a hazard to the maintenance workers Improvement: Bring Lift Stations up to code for electrical requirements. CIP Project No. 1.02 Cost: $25,000 Priority A Beginning: 1998 Completion: 1998 Sanitary Sewer Grouting and Rehabilitation System Deficiency: Old sewers contribute to excessive infiltration into the sanitary sewer system. In order to fulfill KING County's requirements for reducing infiltration and inflow (I&I), the City identifies areas of high concentration and grouts or rehabilitates the sewers. If a specific sewer system is replaced,I&I will be reduced and KING County's requirements will be met. If a system is not scheduled for replacement or a replacement is delayed,the City may have to perform grouting or rehabilitation on the mains to meet KING County's requirements. Improvement: Grout or rehabilitate existing sewers. CIP Project No. 1.03 Cost: $1,000,000 Priority: D Beginning: 2000 Completion: 2019 12/28/98 6-9 CHAPTER SIX GIS Database and conversion System Deficiency: The City is creating a computer GIS database of the City to include utility, building, and planning information. The Wastewater Utility needs to convert the sections existing `paper information' to a computerized GIS database. Improvement: Create GIS database for wastewater data. CIP Project No. 1.04 Cost: $120,000 Priority: A Beginning: 1998 Completion: 2010 6-10 12/28/98 RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS 2. WEST CEDAR RIVER BASIN Windsor Hill Sewer Replacement System Deficiency: These existing sewers are approximately 55 years old. Large portions of the Windsor Hills Sewers are 6" pipes, which does not meet current standard for minimum size for mains. Part of these sewers are within Zone 2 of the Aquifer Protection Area. This project involves the replacement of approximately 7900 lineal feet of existing 6 inch and 8-inch gravity sewer in the Windsor Hills Neighborhood. Improvement: Replace or rehabilitate old sewers in conjunction with the reconstruction of the roads in Windsor Hills.

EAST CEDAR RIVER BASIN East Cedar River Collection System Replacement System Deficiency:The completion of the Fast Renton Interceptor in 1994 allows for the extension of collection mains into the East Cedar River Basin. Except for a couple of parcels along the City Limits and a temporary connection to the Maplewood Heights Elementary School, the basin is unserved. Construction of the collection system will most likely be through Local Improvement District or developer extension. There is approximately 255,000 feet of collection sewer necessary to provide service to this basin. Improvement: Install collection system in the East Cedar River Basin.

First, this low-pressure sewer main requires a considerable amount of maintenance which is made more difficult due to its location along the lakefront. Second, it uses a flush station which pumps water from Lake Washington in order to flush wastewater to the Lake Washington No. 2 Lift Station. Third, the sewer system poses a tremendous threat to both the environment and the property owners adjacent to this system if it is not maintainable. A study would examine and evaluate alternatives to improve the operation of this sewer system and the improvements would be constructed. Improvement: Examine and evaluate alternatives for improving system operation in this area and make the improvements.

The Devil's Elbow Lift Station and force main are scheduled to be replaced in 1998. Reliability concerns, proximity of a lift station to the creek, and susceptibility to vandalism make it advisable to consider a gravity sewer to provide service to this basin. The solution is the completion of the Honey Creek Interceptor, Phase N, which would provide a gravity interceptor from the existing Devil's Elbow Lift Station down to the mouth of the Honey Creek. In conjunction with this project, the May Valley Interceptor, Section 2, must be completed. Honey Creek Interceptor, Phase N, would require approximately 2,700 lineal feet of 12-inch gravity sewer.

The sewer main was patched and put back into service. The repair is temporary in nature as it creates a reduction in capacity, impacts flow characteristics, and prevents proper cleaning. To properly re-establish the sewer system in the area the City needs to replace and relocate approximately 300 feet of sewer main. Improvement: Replace the damaged section of sewer pipe, relocating the main to eliminate the conflict with the adjacent utility(s).

This station is considered a permanent lift station, which will serve existing and future commercial developments within a major portion of the Renton Industrial Subbasin. It does not meet current design codes because it lacks full redundancy of its vacuum priming system. If the vacuum priming system were to fail, the lift station would not operate. In addition,the above grade electrical structures have experienced vandalism. Improvement: The lift station requires rehabilitation and major modifications to improve reliability and in order to be upgraded to a permanent lift station.

SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM OPERATION The City's comprehensive maintenance program allows optimization of the existing collection system and pumping facilities, thereby extracting the maximum life and capacity of each facility. This permits the same facilities to accommodate greater flow rates and more system connections while minimizing construction of new facilities. A properly maintained facility is less likely to fail. This reduces the operating costs of the utility because of lower damage compensation costs and overtime costs for maintenance personnel. It also protects the environment and the public health by minimizing sewage overflows. B. CURRENT OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM Duties involved with running the Wastewater Utility are divided into operation and maintenance programs. These programs are discussed in the following sections. 1. OPERATIONS a. ROUTINE OPERATIONS Routine operation of the sanitary sewer utility is a combination of interaction between the Wastewater Utility Section (located in City Hall) and the Wastewater Operation and Maintenance Section (located in the City Shop Facility). Routine operations involve the analysis, formulation, and implementation of procedures to ensure that the sanitary sewer facilities are functioning efficiently. The utility's maintenance procedures work well. Repairs are made promptly so customers do not experience unnecessary inconvenience. Side sewer maintenance can be a major problem within a sanitary sewer system. Side sewers are owned and maintained by the individual property owners. City policy is that individual property owners are responsible for maintaining their side sewers. If a problem occurs, the property owner is to contact a private plumber to investigate and correct the problem. If the property owner can show that the problem is within the publicly owned sewer main, then the City will correct the problem and reimburse the property owner for expenses incurred. b. EMERGENCY OPERATIONS Emergency operations are the unplanned and unscheduled tasks needed to keep the system in operation. This would include responding to sewer blockages, pipes broken by construction, and damage to the system by acts of nature. All of the maintenance staffs are also available to aid any of the other sections with additional manpower or equipment. The Wastewater Maintenance staff also has the responsibility to keep the system operating when there are power or mechanical failures at lift stations. Renton's telemetry system allows for 24-hour remote monitoring and access to the system by the crew. With this access, they can be alerted to a problem and correct it remotely, determine that it can wait until the next shift, or mobilize the necessary manpower and equipment. 12/28/98 7-1 CHAPTER SEVEN c. ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE The sewer utility operates under the direction of the Administrator of Planning, Building and Public Works. The Wastewater Maintenance Supervisor reports to the Maintenance Services Director. The Wastewater Utility Engineering Supervisor reports to the Utility Systems Director. The Utility Systems Director and the Maintenance Services Director report to the Administrator of Planning, Building and Public Works. The Wastewater Maintenance staff is responsible for the upkeep of both the sanitary sewer and storm water systems. The Wastewater Maintenance Supervisor evenly divides his duties, overseeing the operation and maintenance of both systems. There are five Maintenance Services workers responsible for the operation of the sanitary sewer system. The primary responsibility of two of these workers is lift stations. The Wastewater Utility staff is responsible for design and management of capital improvement projects, coordination of developer extensions of the sewer system, and long range planning for the Utility. The Wastewater Utility Supervisor oversees the Wastewater Utility staff. The Wastewater Utility staff consists of two engineering project managers. All three members of the Wastewater Utility are involved in project management and coordination. d. TRAINING Training consists of special courses and seminars specifically designed for the requirements of sanitary sewer utility employees. The training is offered through such organizations as the APWA (local section), various trade organizations, local colleges and universities; Seattle-King County Health Departments, other sewer utilities, and by industrial training specialists. Renton's policy of supporting and promoting operator training must be continued. As the complexity of the system increases and as the service area expands, the need for trained efficient staff to keep pace with public demand and advances in technology will become imperative. New employees need orientation and basic information, while more experienced employees can improve by continued training. Training opportunities are of such importance to effectively operating the system that Renton has linked them to its overall personnel evaluation program. Employees are evaluated and promoted through a set of job categories with pay commensurate to the category. It is essential that the promotional program continue to be closely linked with the training program, not only because it promotes efficient operation, but also because mandatory certification of wastewater utility workers is required by the state. The State Department of Health stipulates qualifications and training requirements for obtaining and maintaining certification. The City Council and Administration have approved expenditures for training with the result of maintaining proficiency levels in the last five years. 7-2 12/28/98 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE e. COMMUNICATION Efficient and economical functioning of a team requires adequate provision for regular, effective communication among its members. The normal channels of communication available to maintain effective coordination are: Vehicular two-way radios Cellular Telephones Electronic Pagers Regularly kept work logs Regular inspection reports Daily work assignment meetings Inventory and other record keeping practices Emergency phone numbers for"on-call" employees Direct, City-owned telephone connection to City Hall Weekly staff meetings The sewer utility does not have a comprehensive system operation manual; however, lift station facility operation and maintenance manuals are available for staff reference. City staff has maintained the policy of requiring complete operation and maintenance manuals for all new equipment and facilities. In addition, we recommend that a system wide Operations and Maintenance manual, including emergency response procedures, be prepared and updated on a regular basis. f. EQUIPMENT AVAILABILITY Sewer maintenance staff is equipped primarily with City-owned equipment. The equipment available for daily use includes rolling stock, shop tools and incidental equipment as well as other portable equipment for field use. The vehicles and other rolling stock are listed in TABLE VII-1 with a description of their primary use in the department. A description of each vehicle and its uses is presented below. The existing inventory appears adequate at current staffing levels but should increase in proportion to customer increases. The City should examine the backup capabilities of the inventory, based on critical equipment or facility failure, and make provisions for additional material procurement on a short notice basis where necessary. 12/28/98 7-3 CHAPTER SEVEN Table VII- 1: Wastewater Utility Department Equipment(1998) ROLLING STOCK Vehicle# Year Vehicle Description C-75 1976 Utility TV inspection unit D-84 1987 Lift station utility truck D-82 1987 Manhole and line service truck E-93 1986 Vac-Con high velocity sewer jet and vacuum S-165 1976 Mechanical rodding OTHER EQUIPMENT Amount Equipment Description 3 Emergency generators 2 Wacker compactors 1 3-inch trash pump 4 Trash diaphragm pumps 1 Chain saw 1 Set of emergency lighting Utilities TV Inspection Unit(Equipment#C-75) This unit is a self propelled closed-circuit color TV system used for inspecting sanitary sewer and storm drain lines. It is fully self-contained with a generator, compressor, and water supply. Its primary use is to determine conditions of existing lines and any repairs or replacement necessary. The TV van is an important part of the maintenance program to help determine priority areas that require further attention and maintenance. Lift Station Utility Truck(Equipment#D-84) The lift station crew uses this vehicle for inspection, maintenance and repair of sewer pump stations. It is equipped with a crane used for lifting pumps and equipment as needed and utility compartments for parts, tools,etc. This vehicle is also used to transport the emergency generator(s) and to assist with other maintenance and emergency procedures as needed. Manhole and Line Service Truck(Equipment#D-82) The line crew uses this vehicle for inspection and repair of manholes and lines. It carries parts used in sewer line repair such as couplings, fittings, plugs, etc. It is also equipped with an auxiliary hydraulic power unit that operates jackhammers, compactors, and pumps making this vehicle self-contained for exposing and excavation procedures. This vehicle can also be used to transport the mechanical rodder and emergency generator(s). 7-4 12/28/98 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Vac-Con High Velocity Sewer Jet and Vacuum Unit Equipment(Equipment#E-93) The Vac-Con has a wide variety of uses in the utility maintenance programs. It is primarily used to clean sewer lines and remove solid debris (i.e., rocks, silt, and dirt) from the lines that could create flow restrictions and blockages. There are a number of lines in the City, primarily in the downtown area, that have inconsistent grades creating septic conditions within the lines. A part of the maintenance program is to use the Vac-Con to flush water through these particular lines periodically to prevent those conditions from occurring. The Vac-Con is the primary equipment used for emergency blockages in the lines and is used to assist TV inspection by setting cables when needed. Mechanical Rodding Machine(Equipment#S-165) The mechanical rodder is used to remove roots and grease that accumulate within sewer lines creating flow restrictions and blockages. Numerous lines throughout the City have been examined and discovered to have had a history of problems created by roots and grease. These particular lines are rodded periodically to ensure there is no interruption of flow. g. RECORDS Providing time for keeping and maintaining accurate records should be an integral consideration in determining the time to be allotted to any departmental task. Adequate records are an essential tool in utility management and operation, providing the supporting data for operations assessment and long-term planning, while saving time and reducing difficulty when trouble arises. The sewer utility has need for several types of records: Facility operation, personnel, customer contact, inventory, and facility maintenance and repair. These and other appropriate documents should be legible, concise, permanent, accurate and accessible. Their importance to the efficient functioning of the utility is critical. Up-to-date maps of the sanitary sewer system are important for operation and maintenance. Changes or additions to the sanitary sewer system should be added as they occur. The City maintains an updated CAD map of the sanitary sewer system that is useful to the operations and maintenance staff. These utility maps, printed in 1"=400' books and 1"=800' wall maps, show the sanitary sewer size and location, manhole location and number, cleanout location and number, and lift station and force main locations. The City has also developed a database inventory of the sewer system that links the CAD maps and the as-built drawings. As-built drawings of much of the existing sanitary sewer system and private side sewers are kept on file in the Utility Systems Division at City Hall. This information is available in both hard copy and as scanned images available to be viewed on a computer. The operation and maintenance staff uses this data to provide location information for sanitary sewer lines and service connections. Plat maps or construction drawings for new sanitary sewer extensions within the distribution system should continue to be kept for the sanitary sewer system and added to both the CAD and database systems. 12/28/98 7-5 CHAPTER SEVEN 2. MAINTENANCE a. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Preventive maintenance uses planned and scheduled activities to ensure smooth, continuous operations of equipment and facilities. Maintenance schedules that meet or exceed manufacturer's recommendations should be established for all critical components in the sanitary sewer system. The City's new sewer telemetry system provides automated data collection and record keeping of lift station functions. Physical inspections of the stations are still an important tool in maintaining the system. b. CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE Corrective maintenance is that which improves the performance of existing equipment, facilities and infrastructure. c. SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE The following schedule should be used as a minimum for preventive and corrective maintenance: Sewage Lift Stations Daily: Check system set points and levels; check radio telemetry for failures; program stations as necessary. Weekly: Check security; log and record pump motor hours; check motor noise, temperature, and vibration. Monthly: Change all filters; clean electrodes; exercise all valves; run all emergency generators. Semiannually: Change motor oil; observe and record motor current draw; check packing.

Tools As Needed: Clean after each use; lubricate and maintain as necessary. C. STAFFING The preventive maintenance procedures, corrective maintenance procedures, routing operations, and emergency operations of the utility are described in the previous sections. The hours of labor and supervisory activity required to effectively carry out the work of these on-going maintenance and operations schedules and engineering responsibilities form the basis for determining adequate staffing levels. 1. MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS STAFF The current staff organization is described in section B of this chapter. There are at present 5.5 full time employees, including supervisory personnel and maintenance workers, who operate and maintain the sanitary sewer system. The tasks that are performed by sewer utility staff include inspection, testing, installation and repair of system facilities and preventive maintenance, corrective maintenance, record keeping, administrative tasks, training, and response to emergencies. The hours of work required to adequately maintain the sanitary sewer system are shown in TABLE VII- 2. For preventive and corrective maintenance, the annual hours total 8,842. The hours of work required for operational tasks for the sanitary sewer system are shown in TABLE VII-3. For operational tasks, the annual hours total 2,627. For adequate maintenance of the sanitary sewer system, the City would need a total of approximately 11,469 hours worked per year. 12/28/98 7-7 CHAPTER SEVEN Table VII-2: STAFFING TIME FOR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE FACILITY OR EQUIPMENT FREQUENCY OF QUANTITY TIME REQUIRE MAINTENANCE PER YEAR LIFT STATION TWICE PER WEEK 21 L.S. 1,092 HOURS INSPECTION LIFT STATION ANNUALLY 21 L.S. 1,575 HOURS MAINTENANCE SEWAGE PUMP AND ANNUALLY 42 PUMPS 1,428 HOURS MOTOR MAINTENANCE MANHOLE INSPECTION SEMIANNUALLY 3750 MANHOLES 1,625 HOURS AND MAINTENANCE VIDEO INSPECTION ANNUALLY 24,000 LF. 256 HOURS ROOT CUTTING SEMIANNUALLY 19,200 LF. 410 HOURS GREASE REMOVAL ANNUALLY 24,000 LF 349 HOURS HYDRAULIC LINE ANNUALLY 100,000 LF 1,067 HOURS CLEANING REPAIR SEWERS ANNUALLY 30 REPAIRS 240 HOURS AND CLEAR PLUGS EASEMENT&ROAD ANNUALLY 24,000 LF 800 HOURS MAINTENANCE TOTAL FOR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE 8,842 HOURS TABLE VII-3: STAFFING TIME FOR OPERATION TASKS FACILITY OR EQUIPMENT TASK TIME PER ACTIVITY TIME REQUIRE.

At this rate, a full-time maintenance staff of 6.5 members is necessary to accomplish preventive maintenance and normal operations activities and respond to emergencies. This analysis indicates that the Wastewater Utility Operation and Maintenance Division is not adequately staffed to regularly perform the basic tasks required to provide minimum recommended maintenance to the system. An expansion of the system requiring new service connections and/or additional facilities, without enlargement of the staff, will result in diminished levels of service for all maintenance programs. In view of predicted population growth in the service area over the next several years and the growing demand for sanitary sewer service,the need for additional staffing will continue. Many arguments support the wisdom of adequate staffing in any work place. The most persuasive argument relevant to a complex sanitary sewer system is that short staffing causes preventive maintenance schedules to be deferred. When routine, regular preventive maintenance tasks are reduced, breakdowns result, increasing both breakdown maintenance and excessive reliance on expensive standby equipment and contracted services required to resolve emergencies. Regular performance of all necessary work in the Wastewater Utility Operation and Maintenance Division, with the current number of service connections, will require additions to the present maintenance crew. The expected increase in the number of service connections should serve as further impetus to develop a staff of an adequate size to effectively operate and maintain the system. The size of the maintenance crew should be increased from five to six maintenance workers to meet today's requirements while continuing to share the supervisor position with Surface Water Maintenance. This addition to the staff will create the adequate number of crew hours necessary to carry the full workload of the Utility without neglecting preventive maintenance, emergency preparedness, or safety precautions. Further staff increases should be tied to the actual growth of the sewer system. Maintenance and technical staff additions should be accompanied by additions to the clerical, secretarial and other support staff needed to ensure that record keeping, billing, public relations, communications and other general functions of support staff are performed with the accuracy and timeliness required. 2. WASTEWATER UTILITY ENGINEERING STAFF The current engineering staff organization is described in section B of this chapter. Currently the Wastewater Utility has 3 full-time employees (Fib's) involved in engineering tasks. The engineering staff is responsible for two major tasks, administrative and capital improvement projects. The various administrative tasks and the hours of work required are shown in TABLE VII-4. The number of hours required for each task is not easily defined; therefore, workloads have been estimated based on a full-time employee()~1'h). Administrative tasks require approximately 1.15 FTE's. TABLE VII-4 also shows the capital improvement projects that are proposed for 1999. These projects require approximately 1.7 FTE's. The total time required to perform all the tasks that the City is currently performing is approximately 2.85 Fib's. With consideration given to time lost to holidays, vacation, illness, and training, the current staffing level of 3 Fib's is adequate to complete current tasks. 12/28/98 7-9 CHAPTER SEVEN Most of the capital improvement projects identified in the 1992 Comprehensive Sewer Plan were completed. The primary reason for the City's ability to carry out a capital improvement program is the current engineering staff provided to design and manage the projects. Additional administrative tasks which are recommended in this plan are (1) prepare new ordinances and revise existing ordinances, (2) setup and administer grease trap management and certification ordinance, (3) inventory and update hydraulic computer model, and (4) perform computer analyses using the sewer system hydraulic model. These tasks will require additional staffing of approximately 1.0 FI'h's. This will bring the total staffing requirements for both administrative tasks and capital improvement projects up to 4.0 FI'h's. 3. DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION The Wastewater Utility utilizes the expertise in other City departments, according to inter-departmental agreements, to augment the Wastewater Utility's expertise. The Finance and Information Services Department is responsible for customer billing, payment collection, project cost reporting, fund activity reporting, and basic computer needs. The Human Resources and Risk Management Department is responsible for employee records, union labor negotiations, salary schedules, and risk management evaluation. Within the Planning / Building / Public Works Department, the Wastewater Utility also utilizes the services of the Development Services and Technical service Divisions. Development Services provides plan review, permit issuance and inspection for developer extensions. They also provide inspection service for the Utility's Capital Improvement Projects. Technical Services provides support to Wastewater through Mapping and Property Services. This includes CAD mapping, development of the City's geographic information system, surveys,and property management. 7-10 12/28/98 ' OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE TABLE VII-4: WASTEWATER UTILITY ENGINEERING STAFF TIME ENGINEERING TASKS Section Supervision 0.20 Fib's Latecomer's Agreement Administration 0.10 FIE's Plan Review Support 0.30 Fib's Comprehensive Sewer Plan Update 0.20 Fib's Customer Service Support 0.10 Fib's Support to Other Divisions/Departments/Agencies 0.25 Fib's TOTAL ADMINISTRATIVE TIME 1.15 14'1'h'S MAJOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS Kennydale Lake Line 0.30 Fib's Windsor Hills Sewer Replacement 0.30 Fib's Highgate Lift Station Elimination 0.20 Fib's Misty Cove/Baxter Lift Station Replacements 0.20 Fib's South &North Highlands Sewer Replacements 0.30 Fib's Ridgecrest Sewer Replacement 0.20 Fib's Infiltration and Inflow Program 0.20 Fib's TOTAL CIP TIME 1.70 Fib'S TOTAL ENGINEERING TIME 2.85 Fib'S Fib's=Full Time Employees 12/28/98 7-11 r: CHAPTER VIII FINANCIAL ANALYSIS 1 .:, • L W • • a ++ 2' • 1� .i '' •r � w de t .^�a wSMt+ + a"'y. e. . 4 moo+ , -4 �..cr 40. CHAPTER VIII FINANCIAL ANALYSIS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter considers the financial impacts that the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), recommended in Chapters 5 and 6, will have on the wastewater utility's budgeting process. The proposed wastewater utility CIP consists of the rehabilitation, replacement and new construction of sewer facilities that are necessary to meet the policy goals stated in Chapter 3, the design standards and criteria presented in Chapter 4 and the service needs that will result from anticipated growth. This chapter also presents a financial analysis of the wastewater utility that identifies its historical and projected future expenses and compares them to available and projected revenues in order to determine the necessary rate adjustments. A utility rate model that evaluated the operation of the 401 and 421 funds and made specific rate recommendations was completed as part of the 1992 Long-Range Wastewater Management plan. This model was based upon a 1989 rate study (Water and Wastewater Rates Management Analysis, RH2 Engineering P.S.). The model was updated as part of the rate study adopted in 1994 (Comprehensive Rate Study, Water, Wastewater, and Surface Water Utilities, Economic and Engineering Services, Inc., January 1994). In this chapter two sets of numbers are used. Current 1998 dollars are used to project the costs of operations, maintenance, and capital improvement programs. However, several factors may affect the accuracy of those projections. The most significant factor is inflation. Although we cannot predict the exact amount inflation will increase costs, we estimate it will be 3% a year. Other factors that may affect future costs that we have not included in our cost estimate are contractor availability, technological advances,and changes in laws and policies. B. WASTEWATER UTILITY EXPENSES AND REVENUE REQUIREMENTS There are four major expenses of the wastewater utility, which fall under two broad categories--operating expenses and actual construction costs for CIP projects. Operating expenses include costs for operations and maintenance and KING COUNTY charges. Actual construction costs include the expenses for implementing the CIP and debt service costs. Inflation, defined as a general rise in prices, affects each of these expenses to a different degree. A summary of the major expenses of the Wastewater Utility is shown on FIGURE 9. A detailed description of each expense is presented below. To determine the revenues needed to meet each expense, one must forecast future levels of 1) inflation, 2) customer service increases, 3) KING COUNTY rate increases,4) increases in operations and maintenance costs, 5) the City's share of costs for financing the CIP, and 6) anticipated revenues from other sources to finance the remaining portions of the CIP. C. OPERATING COSTS AND REVENUES All operating costs fall into two general categories: 1) The city's operations and maintenance expenses (controlled by City's budget process) and 2) the KING COUNTY sewage treatment charges (no direct control by the city). A summary of these costs is shown on FIGURES 9 and 10. It is evident from 12/28/98 8-1 CHAPTER EIGHT FIGURE 10 that the majority of the operating costs are a direct result of KING COUNTY charges. The Wastewater Utility rate increase necessary to cover the operating costs is presented in TABLE VIII-1. 1. King County CHARGES KING COUNTY charges for wastewater treatment and disposal. As part of its service contract with KING COUNTY, the City collects that charge from its customers through the utility billing division and passes it on to KING COUNTY. KING COUNTY has held its rates over the last three years. It is expected, however, that they will increase their rates slightly as King County implements its Regional Wastewater Services Plan over the next 20 years. KING COUNTY treatment services are forecast to increase at an average annual rate of 3%. 2. CITY OF RENTON OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE a. COSTS The estimated costs to operate the wastewater utility include salary costs for the operation, maintenance, engineering and administration of services, taxes, office supplies, debt service, and consulting fees. The number of staff and the additional staff positions for Wastewater have been identified in Chapter VIE. For purposes of this financial analysis, recommended staffing levels for operating the wastewater utility were predicted to be reached within this plan's six-year period in order to keep pace with anticipated growth. Inflation for labor is estimated to be 3% annually. Other expenses are anticipated to increase at the estimated inflation rate of 3%. 8-2 12/28/98 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS / \ CITY'S REVENUE BREAKDOWN SUMMARY FIGURE 9 $5.0 I $3.0 '_.'<'.. 2 51 REVENUE 2.50 2.51 2.51 .

REVENUE REQUIREMENTS For purposes of the financial analysis, the estimated revenue requirements for the next six years (1998 to 2004) were based on the 1997 operating budget with additions for planned new services and inflation. Customer service growth was assumed to occur at 2% per year, which increases revenues from rate collection by 2%. The capital budgets were based on the six-year CIP recommended in this Plan. D. CIP COSTS AND REVENUES 1. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN COSTS The recommended CIP presented in this Plan consists of improvements necessary to serve the projected service area's population at saturation at the lowest reasonable cost. Consequently, the CIP's recommendations are based on saturation conditions and will be implemented, as they are needed. The project costs listed here are intended for budgetary purposes only, because they are based on current construction costs and should be adjusted for actual inflation depending upon the actual construction date. The cost for the recommended CIP in the City's budget process is shown in the annual budget in the 421 account. The costs for all of the improvements have been estimated, based on current information available. It should be reiterated that changes in system flow rates, system growth, financial policies, and regulatory requirements all contribute to adjustments in long-range planning. We recommend that financial goals be evaluated every five years, and that a detailed cash flow analysis be conducted annually. TABLES VIII - 2, 3A & 3B present the estimated costs of the capital improvement program as recommended in this Comprehensive Plan. TABLE VIII-2 summarizes these annual costs of the CIP program showing the total project cost (current and inflated dollars) and the City's share of the program costs (current and inflated). FIGURE 11 graphically presents the information provided in TABLE VIII- 2. TABLES VIII-3A & 3B show an annual breakdown for each capital improvement project using current dollars. These estimates of funding responsibilities are based on the financial policies presented in Chapter 3. Debt service is a major cost of operating a wastewater utility. The majority of funding for the CIP has historically been provided through revenue bond sales, which means the utility borrows money from inventors while agreeing to repay those investors part of their debt with interest each year. This debt service (principal and interest) is funded from the 401 account (Utility Operations and Maintenance) because the debt service is a high priority lien on the revenues of the utility. Specific restrictions are contained in the bond covenants that restrict financial procedures of the utility. For example, the wastewater utility is required to set rates that must exceed its costs for operating and maintaining the system,cover payment of the debt service and cover an additional specified percentage of debt service. Renton also utilizes Public Works Trust Fund Loans from the State as a source of funds. These loan agreements also require that the City meet similar rate standards as described above for bonding. 8-6 12/28/98 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS 2. REVENUE SOURCES FOR CIP a. CITY SHARE In the financial analysis, the new debt service was calculated as the amount necessary to fund the City's share of inflated CIP costs. The analysis also indicates how this additional debt service affects the operating costs identified in the Rates Management Analysis (RMA). That adjustment to the RMA will determine the rate adjustments necessary to accomplish the CIP. Those costs will be recovered from customers based on their specific degree of benefit. The City's share of funding originates from three different sources; Revenue Bonds, General Obligation Bonds and the Public Works Trust Fund. These funding sources are discussed in detail below. 1) Revenue Bonds Revenue bonds are issued and sold by the City when large amounts of money are needed to build general purpose capital improvements that benefit the City as a whole. The City, like other municipalities, is capable of issuing tax-exempt bonds. The principal and interest payments for such bonds are repaid from general revenues, connection charges, assessments and interest earned on investments. In order to qualify to sell revenue bonds, the City must show that its net operating income (gross income less expenses) is equal to or greater than 1.3 times the annual principal and interest due for all outstanding bonded indebtedness. The 1.3 factor is commonly referred to as the "coverage factor." 2) General Obligation Bonds The City has the authority to levy a tax (subject to a vote of the people) that could be used to pay principal and interest costs of a general obligation bond issue. The City has not used this means of revenue generation for the wastewater utility and does not plan to unless a serious disaster occurs that requires massive improvements and/or replacements beyond the City's ability to fund it through other sources. 12/28/98 8-7 90 TABLE VIII-3:COST BREAKDOWN FOR PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS °O CARRY 1999 2000 I 2001 I 2002 I 2003 I 2004 FUTURE PROJECT�PROPOSED a NUMBER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS FORWARD Note:Project Cost Estimates are in 1998 dollars.

Interest rates vary from a low of 1% to a high of 3% depending upon the City's matching share. It is emphasized that these low interest rate loans are for replacements only and can not be used for accommodating growth. These loans can be utilized effectively for replacements in the Central Business District (CBD) and other fully developed areas of the City's service area. This includes areas that are currently developed on private septic systems. b. OTHER REVENUE SOURCES FOR CIP This section presents the anticipated funding for the CIP from sources other than rate revenue. Five funding sources are identified and these are discussed in more detail below. 1) Grants Federal and state loan and grant programs are available for wastewater capital improvement projects. These programs are primarily designed to fund improvements that upgrade wastewater treatment facilities in order to comply with Federal Clean Water Act (PL92-500). With budget cutbacks at both the federal and state level, the possibility of receiving government funding for a portion of the recommended improvements at this time is remote. Should additional funds be made available, the City should explore the feasibility of obtaining funds from these sources. The Centennial Clean Water Fund is an example of state grant funding which is currently available. This grant fund's highest priority is to eliminate public health emergencies and secondly, to improve water quality. The City should continue to pursue these funds for projects that meet its criterion. 2) King County KING COUNTY funds are available for the construction of interceptors and local service extensions if the investment can be justified. Currently KING COUNTY limits its investment to projects where the amortized capital cost of the project can be recovered through KING COUNTY fees collected from the residential customer, or equivalent, that are served by the extension at the time of project completion. Based on this policy, KING COUNTY could construct the May Valley Interceptor and other improvements. 3) LID(Local Improvement District) Assessments LID assessment income is paid to the City from assessments levied against specific properties that have benefited from improvements in a defined area. Typically, Local Improvements District's(LIDs) are formed by the City at the written request(by petition) of property owners within a specific area of the City. Upon receipt of a sufficient 8-10 12/28/98 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS number of signatures on petitions,a local improvement area is defined and improvements are designed for it. Each separate property in the LID is assessed in accordance with the special benefits the property receives from the sewer system improvements. Generally, it is the policy of the City to assess the benefited properties 100 percent of the cost of the improvements plus the general facilities and sewer connection charges. LID projects may be divided into two categories. a) Improvements of Local Interest If necessary, specific problems, such as excessive septic tank failures, can be corrected through an LID. If not necessary,these projects can be postponed until a later date when the area needs or desires it. b) Improvements of Regional Interest These projects are beneficial to an area larger than an LID and are initiated by the City. While LID funding would help,the project is of such importance that a lack of LID should not delay it. If an LID cannot be formed, additional funding from other sources (including the City) may be necessary. 4) Developers City policy requires that all developers/property owners take financial responsibility for the necessary improvements before their development benefits from them. This responsibility may be satisfied in one of the following ways. In all cases, developer/property owners should be required to pay for the costs to the extent their property benefits from the facility installed(their fair share). a) Utilities Installed If the utilities necessary are already installed, the developer/property owner will reimburse the party(city or private)that installed the facility through a latecomer agreement or special assessment district, where such agreements exist. b) Utilities Not Installed If the utilities necessary are not installed, then the developer/property owner must extend or make improvements to the facilities following routes that comply with the City's Comprehensive Sewer Plan. If the plan is not definitive for that area, then the facilities will be extended and installed in a manner that best serves the City of Renton's citizens as determined by the Wastewater Utility Engineer. 12/28/98 8-11 CHAPTER EIGHT If the facilities installed potentially benefit other properties, a latecomer's agreement may be requested. If the facility required by the City is determined by City Council to be significantly more expensive because of oversizing or routing requirements,then the Council may agree that the City participate. If a City capital improvement project is being planned, designed, or constructed, developer/property owners could choose to participate financially in the City's project rather than make the improvements themselves. 5) Other This category of funding responsibility is primarily for participation by other municipalities, such as adjacent cities or districts. Negotiations need to be accomplished to finalize funding responsibilities before annual adjustments to the CIP and rate increases. a) Contingency Revenue Plan If the funding from other sources does not happen as anticipated, or on the schedule anticipated, then the City should adjust this plan's CIP. Alternative adjustments available to the City are as follows: Reduce the scope and magnitude of the improvements with corresponding reductions in cost, - Defer that portion of the improvements necessary for the benefit of others until the funding is obtained, Proceed with the CIP as recommended in this plan and finance the other beneficiary's share with the provision that these other costs should be recovered including interest costs. It is critical to the implementation of the CIP that these funds are obtained from other funding sources. The level of funding from other sources is based on the current perceived degree of benefit from each project; this may change based on the actual degree of benefit assessed at the time the project is planned to begin. E. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The City has control of approximately 40% of the total wastewater utility budget; KING COUNTY charges are responsible for approximately 60% of the total budget. The City's major source of revenue is from sewer collection charges from its customers. These charges provide the necessary revenue for the operation and maintenance of existing sewer facilities and for the City's share of the CIP. The financial analysis, summarized in TABLE VIII-1 (page 8-4), illustrates that the City must raise its sewer collection charges by 24.5% over the next six years. This is equivalent to an average annual rate increase of approximately 4.1%per year. 8-12 12/28/98 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS The rate increases depend on several factors that can change. These factors are summarized below: • The customer base for the City is forecast to grow at an annual rate of 2% over the next five years. If this growth rate is greater than 2%, adjustments to sewer collection rates may be less than projected; however, if the customer base increases at less than 2% per year, then adjustment to these sewer collection rates will lead to an increase above what is shown in TABLE VIII-1. • A significant portion of the wastewater utility's budget cover operations and maintenance personnel costs. If recommended additions to the staff do not occur, then the rate increases shown in TABLE VIII-1 could be reduced. The cost savings would be offset, however, by the consequences of having inadequate and unqualified personnel; the wastewater utility would not function efficiently and would not provide adequate services to its customers. • The financial analysis assumes the CIP in this Plan will be implemented. If it is not, whether deliberately or unintentionally, then the required rate increases presented in this financial analysis will change. It should be noted that delaying the implementation of this CIP may initially result in lower rate increases; however, if facilities fail, then unplanned and costly repairs will be needed, which often results in excessively high rate increases in the future. Currently, the City Council and wastewater utility are implementing financial reviews through the annual budget process. These reviews allow the wastewater utility access to the latest and most accurate financial date, allowing more informed decisions. The wastewater utility will continue to work with the City Council to recommend the necessary rate increase needed to maintain and improve the system in order to provide the residents of the City with effective, safe, and reliable sewage disposal service. 12J28/98 8-13 • Am Appendix A Sewage Lift Station Data Sheets SEWAGE LIFT STATION DATA SHEET LIFT STATION NAME Airport LOCATION 500 West

Under date of August llth, 1970, the City and Safecare- Careage entered into the Safecare-Careage Contract which permitted Safecare-Careage to build the Springbrook Line hereinabove defined. (2.) Said contract provided for reimbursement to Safecare- Careage, subject to the laws and ordinances of the City of Renton, by the owner of real estate who did not contribute to the orig- inal cost of the improvement and who subsequently wished to tap into or hook onto or use the facilities. (3•) Said contract also reserves to the City the right to make or cause to be made extensions of or additions to the above-mentioned improvement and to allow service connections to be made to said extensions or additions without liability on the part of the City. (4 .) The properties, the owners of which are to be charged for tapping into or hooking onto the Springbrook Line, and the amount and rate of said charges for said properties, have already been determined in accordance with Ordinance No. 2847 of the City of Renton. . Of the properties involved in this Agreement, they are the properties, sewer service to which is to be provided by the City, and not by the District under this Agreement. (S.) The City is presently providing sewer service to Lots 1 and 2 of Scott's Terrace by means of the existing crossing. (6.) • . No formal agreement for the provision of sewer service in the subject area has been entered into between the City and ,the District. (7;) The City also proposes to provide sewer service to Lots 4 and S of Scott's Terrace by permitting the construction of the proposed crossing. (8•) The City is prepared to furnish sewer service through the Springbrook Line to Lots 3, 6, 7 and 8 of Scott's Terrace. (�,•) Although all of Scott's Terrace and the Radovich Property , are within the Cascade Sewer District and are outside the limits of the City, each party recognizes that sewer service to Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, S, 6, ; 7, 8 and 16 of Scott's Terrace and to that portion -3- of the Radovich property which lies to the west of the southerly prolongation of the westerly boundary of Lots 17 and 18 of Scott's Terrace can be provided by the City through the Talbot Road Line sooner than such service could be pro- vided by the District, and that sewer service to these prop- erties by the City and the payment to the City of the charges necessary under the Safecare-Careag'e Contract as already de- termined pursuant to said Ordinance No. 2847 has and will pro- vide the funds for reimbursement of Safecare-Careage under the contract. (10.) The District proposes to serve the properties within U. L. I .D. 11 by utilizing the existing crossing and the proposed crossing as hereinabove defined. (11.) Both the City and the District have identical agree- ments with METRO relating to the METRO Line, permitting both the City and the District to make sewer service available to • properties along said line by allowing said properties to be hooked onto the METRO Line, making an appropriate charge to the owners of said properties and remitting the same to METRO as payment against the cost of the construction of said line. (12.) Because of the possible duplication of charges; and the question of the proper agency to'provide sewer service to various properties referred to above, the parties hereto do desire by this Agreement to formalize their mutual responsibil- ities and rights in the area. III. MUTUAL COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS In consideration of the covenants herein contained, and in consideration of the benefits to each of the parties to be derived from this Agreement and the performance thereof, and -4- because of the facts stated above, the parties hereto do agree and covenant as follows: (1.) The City will make sewer service available for that portion of the Radovich Property lying west of the southerly prolongation of the westerly boundary of Lots 17 and 18 of Scott's Terrace and for Lots 1, 2, 3, 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8 and 16 of Scott's Terrace, and the District will not attempt to provide sewer service for said areas. (2.) The City will authorize an extension of or addition to the Springbrook Line by permitting the construction of the proposed crossing hereinabove defined. Said crossing must be in accordance with the standards and requirements of the City as to design and construction. The cost of the construction of said proposed crossing will be borne by the District or by private owners with whom the District may contract, or both, but the proposed crossing will be constructed at no cost to the City. (3.) When the proposed crossing is completed, it will be transferred to the City and will be available for the use of the City to provide sewer service to those lots in Scott's Terrace for which the City is to make sewer service available under this Agreement. (4.) Other than the properties described in Paragraph (1.) of Section III of this Agreement, the District will make sewer service available for all other properties within its boundaries in the area of U.L.I .D. 11. (S.) The City agrees that the District may, without pay- ment of any area connection charges, connection fees, latecomer fees, extended service fees, or any fee of any kind, but at the District's own cost of construction, connect its mains to the existing crossing to the proposed crossing when constructed, provided that the design and construction of the District 's -5- facility so connected meet with the approval of the City. (6.) Without any cost to the City, the District will place a manhole at the easterly end of the existing crossing and will connect the existing side-sewer to this manhole. The ,District will also cause a manhole to be constructed at the easterly end of the proposed crossing, and each of said manholes, when completed, will be transferred to the City to own as ;.�, part of their main extensions consisting of the existing cros- sing and the proposed crossing. Said manholes will meet the • design and construction requirements of the City. (7.) Unless it has the prior consent of the City, the District will not attempt to make sewer service available to those properties lying immediately south of So. 180th Street and in the immediate vicinity of the Sringbrook Line which, without the construction of main extensions which would be exempt from any charges under Paragraph S of the Safecare- Careage Contract, can be served by that portion of the Spring- brook Line as presently constructed. (8.) Although portions of the lines hereinabove described will be jointly used by the City and the District , each of the parties hereto will maintain its own lines at its own cost. (9.) If all of the properties which are to be served by the District under this Agreement are annexed to and become a part of the City, the District will, without charge to the City, transfer to the City the entire sewer system to be con- structed by the District in U.L. I .D. 11 as described in this Agreement. (10.) All facilities constructed by the District which are to be transferred to the City under this Agreement will be transferred by an appropriate hill of Sale in standard form. (11.) The District will hold the City harmless from any -6- claims made against the City and will protect the City from any liabilities in connection with any of the work to be done by the District. (12.) Nothing in this Agreement as to which party shall pro- vide sewer service to particular properties shall be construed as to require the provision of such service except in accord- ance with the Ordinances or Resolutions of the party, and upon payment to the party of all proper charges by the property owner. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized officers and to have their respective seals affixed hereunto.

I 12. Ilowable Capacities in the Lines being Transferred, and at Points Further ownstream. There are no restrictions on the capacity of the sewers from Ponderosa Estates as long as they are consistent with the current use of the properties. There are currently 35 single family residences, and the property ii fully developed. If this condition ever changes, a further review of the Capacity of the system shall be performed, and an additional agreement shall t)e developed between the parties. Capacity for the system in the Springbrook drainage basin shall be as follows: AT TIMES OF SIMULTANEOUS PEAK FLOW SOOS CITY OF RESERVED CREEK RENTON FOR CITY OF (gpm) (gpm) KENT (gpm) S; 192nd Street, at and below 1500 600 0 MH 34-3 4-7:0400403g.001 Page 8 of 11 S. 192nd Street, at and below 1800 1500 0 MH 34-0A S. 192nd Street, at and below 3900 1500 0 MH 80-14 West of MH 80-14 3900 1500 400 No connections, by either party, will be allowed between Manhole 34-OA and Manhole 80-15 except by mutual agreement. Both parties agree that either may exceed this amount at the non-peak times, as long as there are no negative impacts, and the combined capacity of the system is not exceeded, and prior notification is given to the other party. It shall be the responsibility of each part to monitor its flow as and when necessary to determine what the flow rate characteristics of the system are. If the combined capacity of the system is exceeded, the party exceeding its allowable rate shall have the option of making revisions within its own system to bring its flows into compliance with this Section, or of paying for improve- ments to either system which will increase the available capacity of the systems. If both parties exceed their allowable rate, the cost of any new facilities will be divided based upon the ratio of the percentage by which each party is exceeding its allowable rate. If the allowable rate is exceeded at only one location, the ratio at that location will be used. If the rate is exceeded at more than one location, the ratio will be based upon the furthest east point at which the allowable rates are being exceeded. If a regular surcharge condition exists that is not due to a blockage problem, a previously agreed upon temporary situation such as re-routing for construction, or by either party exceeding its capacity, the DISTRICT shall have the option of making revision within its own system to bring its flows into compliance with this section, or of paying for improvements to either system which will resolve the surcharge condition. Both parties acknowledge and agree that the City of Kent is not a party to this agreement, and the amount referenced for the City of Kent is for reference only and could be the basis for a separate agreement in the future involving THE DISTRICT and the City of Kent, and involving RENTON if their rate allowance is at all to be affected. 1: .

Improvement District No. 284, further reference being hereby had thereto. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY MUTUALLY AGREED AND COVENANTED by and between the parties as follows: I. The parties enter into this Agreement under the authority of • RCW 39.34.080. 2.

District hereby gives and grants unto the City full authority for the construction and installation of said line within the boundaries of District; it being understood and agreed that City's contractor, after award of bid to the lowest responsible bidder, will perform all of such work within the boundaries of said Local Improvement District and within District's territory as .more particularly shown on the attached exhibit which is incorporated herein as if fully set forth. 4. The District will pay for all such construction work within the boundaries of the District, plus the difference between the cost of an 8-inch I. line and whatever size line is constructed on City property, it being agreed that the larger line is for District's benefit. The cost of such oversizing will be determined by the difference between responsible low bids for con- structing an 8-inch and the larger size line within City's Local Improvement District. City will bill District the costs for which District is responsible herein. District will pay said billings to the Director of Finance, City Hall, City of Renton, Washington on or before the end of the month during which District has had possession of any such billing by the second Monday thereof (it being under- stood that vouchers for payment of monthly District liabllitie3 are considered for approval by District's Board of Commissioners at their regular meetings on the second Wednesday of each month.) Ho such billings shall be payable by District unless accompanied by a certificate from City's Engineer that the construction work represented thereby has been acceptably completed by the Contractor. 5. Upon completion of said sewer line installation and acceptance thereof by the parties, said line shall be used, operated and maintained by the District and the City, respectively, for service of their present and future customers so as to transfer all sewage collected by the City and District within their respective territories for delivery to the Metro trunk line and each party shall pay its respective share therefor; no payment or service charge shall be required by either of these parties against the other for the right and privilege of such use after payment of construction costs as herein provided. 6. City shall have the right to authorize connections to said line or any line tributary to said line by property owners situated within the boundaries of the City of Renton, King County, Washington, as they now or may hereafter exist, and upon such terms and conditions as the City may establish for making such connections as per City's resolutions and ordinances. City shall have the right to authorize connections to said line or any line tributary thereto by property owners that may hereafter annex to the City and upon such terms and conditions as provided for by the policies, rules and regulations of the City. 7. District likewise shall have the right to authorize connections to said line by property owners located within the boundaries of said District and upon such terms and conditions as the District may establish• from time-to-time for making such connections. 8. Once said sewer line has been installed and accepted from the contractor, all costs of maintenance, repair and operation incurred for said interceptor line shall be borne solely by the City as to that section of the line located within the boundaries of the City; all of such maintenance, repair and operation expenses as to the line located outside the boundaries of the City shall be borne solely by District. Each of the parties shall be responsible for and promptly repair and remedy any damages or defects occurring to, on or about said line within its respective territorial jurisdiction. 9. Title and ownership of said line, upon completion and acceptance thereof, • shall be in the City as to .that portion thereof within City's Local Improvement District, and in District as to the remainder. 10. The capacity of said line is agreed to be 2. 15 million gallons per day (mgd) . District's utilization of said line is limited to 1. 65 mgd. and City's to . 50 mgd. , but each party ' hereto -warrants and guarantees the other's right to utilize said line forthe gallonage per day to which each party is herein limited. Whichever of the parties causes said line to exceed its total gallonage per day shall be financially responsible for implementing delivery of its excess sewage to the Metro trunk line by mutually agreeable arrangements. City 'assumes the responsibility for measuring total daily gallonage in the line and to promptly notify District when said line exceeds its capacity. 11. It is further anticipated that the total cost of said construction to be borne by District, as herein above set forth, is approximately $120,000. 00 less any monies made available from Federal and State grants; City agrees to advise District of any substantial change in said estimate. District further warrants that proper funds have been budgeted by District for payment of the aforementioned improvements within its boundaries and that District has lawful right to make such payments unto City as hereinabove set forth. A portion of all governmental grant funds received by City in connection with construction of said line shall be credited by City to the District' s obligations hereunder in the ratio which District' s share of the cost of the line bears to the total cost of the project. District will be promptly notified of the receipt of said funds and of the amount thereof to be credited to District. Such credits will be promptly applied by City against District' s liabilities hereunder until exhausted. If application of such credit results in an overpayment by District, City will promptly reimburse District accordingly. . 12. Each of the parties hereby agrees, in order to effectuate the terms of this Agreement, to execute and deliver unto the other, whenever reasonably necessary, appropriate permits, easements and like documents, and to co-operate with the other to assist in compliance with the Washington Inter-Local Co-operation Act (RCW 39. 34 et seq) and/or any other laws applicable to the parties or the subject matter. 13.

An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required. INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or give the best description you can. You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or"does not apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later. Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you. 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. USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NONPROJECT PROPOSALS: Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not apply." IN ADDITION, complete the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). For nonproject actions (actions involving decisions on policies, plans and programs), the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," 'proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively. 1998 City of Rer1ton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist A.

Proposed timing or schedule(including phasing, if applicable): The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan addresses the policies, criteria, and recommendations needed to construct, maintain, and manage a wastewater utility for full land use development (saturation) under current comprehensive land use plans. That Ieyel of development will likely occur by the year 2040. This Long-Range Wastewater Mlanagement Plan will be adopted in early 1999. It will be further supplemented or updated on a regular basis or more often if needed. 7. you have any plans for future additions, expansion, or further activity related to or connected ith this proposal? If yes, explain. Yes, the City plans to supplement or update the Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan on a regular basis or more often if needed. This study recommends that the plan be updated in 2004. 8. gist any environmental information you know about that has been prepared, or will be prepared, girectly related to this proposal. Each of the projects identified by this plan is subject to SEPA regulations. Depending on the scope of project, each will have its own environmental checklist and determination which would be completed as specific projects are proposed for construction. 9. bo you know whether applications are pending for governmental approvals of other proposals directly affecting the property covered by your proposal? If yes, explain. Several individual projects within the area covered by this proposal are pending SEPA approval. King County Water District # 90 has prepared a Draft 1998 Comprehensive Sewer Plan. With this plan they are proposing to become a Sewer service provider within Renton's Urban Growth Area. This area is included in the Renton plan as an area we intend to provide sewer service to. i E:\96cor►p\SEPA98.doc\MAB -2- I 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 10. List any governmental approvals or permits that will be needed for your proposal, if known. The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan will need to be approved by the Renton City Council and the Washington State Department of Ecology. The King County Utilities Technical Review Committee (UTRC) will review the plan and make recommendations to the Executive and County Council as to the consistency of such items with adopted county policies and codes. King County will review and approve franchises to allow the construction of sewer facilities in county rights-of-way. 11. Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the project and site. The 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan addresses policies, criteria, assumptions and recommendations for the City's planning area. The major purpose of the Plan is to provide a long range plan for facility improvements necessary to serve the estimated population at saturation. The Plan addresses facility reliability, public health, groundwater and environmental protection, operation and maintenance, and financing issues. The plan also addresses the need to expand Renton's sewer service area into its Urban Growth Area as the appropriate provider of the urban service per the King County Countywide Planning Policies. This checklist does not address the specific projects addressed in the five year capital improvement program. This is a programmatic checklist and does not address any site specific conditions. These conditions as well as the associated impacts will be discussed in the SEPA reviews of each project. 12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist. The area covered by this comprehensive sewer system plan is the sewer service area as shown in Figure 6. Renton has entered into boundary agreements with most of the sewer service providers adjacent to the City. These service boundaries are established and are not generally altered by annexations. Per the Countywide Planning Policies, Renton intends to provide sewer service to the portion of our Potential Annexation Area that receives water service from Water District#90. B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS 1. EARTH a. General description of the site (circle one); flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other The geologic characteristics of Renton's natural landscape were fundamentally shaped by the forces of glaciation during the last million years. As the glaciers advanced and retreated, they deposited, compressed, and leveled the soils that formed the plateau areas to the east and west of the City, gouged out Lake Washington, and the wide, flat flood plain of the Green River Valley, and i:A96compASEPA98.docAMAB -3- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist determined the original routes of the Cedar and Green Rivers. (Community Profile: Oct., 1989) b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope?) The Renton planning area contains numerous slopes within the ranges of 15-25%, 25-40%, and greater than 40%, as a result of glacial scouring. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any prime farmland. In general, soil types are classified according to mineral composition, topography, biological activities within the soil, climate, and the length of time of soil development. The following description of four soil types (or associations) existing in the Renton area is based on the U.S. Soil Conservation Service's soil survey for King County. The Soils Map shows the four types found in the Renton area. These types are the Alderwood Association, the Oridia-Seattle-Woodinville Association, the Beausite-Alderwood Association, and the Everett Association. (Community Profile: Oct., 1989) d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. Many of the major valleys and shoreline bluffs of Renton and the surrounding area are bordered by steeply sloping unconsolidated glacial deposits that are highly susceptible torn gravity sliding. e Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. We do not anticipate that any of the projects identified in this plan will require grading or filling of a site. When backfilling the trench, we will use native material (that which was removed during excavation) if it meets standards. If the native material is not of an appropriate quality, we will import backfill from an approved source. Any imported backfill material will be addressed in the environmental review during project specific planning phases. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. Minor erosion may result during construction of program projects. Standard erosion control measures will minimize any impact from the minor erosion. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? Program projects may rarely directly create impervious surfaces. Typically, sewers are installed in asphalt roadways or on easements where structures are prohibited. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: When projects are developed, pursuant to this comprehensive plan, the construction of those projects will meet all erosion control requirements as set E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -4- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist forth in the City's adoption of the King County Surface Water Manual, King County Erosion Standards, or additionally be required by a SEPA finding. 2. AIR a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. Potential vehicular and equipment emissions may affect the ambient air quality for a short period of time during construction of program projects. These impacts would be addressed in environmental review during project specific planning phases. b. Are there any off-site sources of emission or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. Potential vehicular emissions may result during the ongoing maintenance functions of the system by City staff. All City vehicles must meet Sate emissions control requirements including bi-annual emissions tests. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: When projects are developed, pursuant to the Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan, the construction of those projects will meet all City or County codes including emissions control. 3. WATER a. Surface Water: 1) Is there any surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site (including year- round and seasonal streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds, wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. Yes. The northwest boundary of the City is the shoreline of Lake Washington. Streams and rivers in the area include Honey Creek which flows into May Creek and then Lake Washington, Maplewood Creek which flows into the Cedar River and then the Lake, and Panther Creek which flows into Springbrook Creek which is pumped into the Green River which eventually flows into Puget Sound. Some of the large wetlands identified within the study area are the Panther Creek Wetlands, Black River Riparian Forest, Springbrook Wetland, Orillia Pond, and Cedar River Marsh. 2) Will the project require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the described waters? If yes, please describe and attach available plans. Any projects identified within this document that are within 200 feet of the described waters will address the issue in the SEPA and Shoreline Permit Review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -5- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist It is the Wastewater Utility's goal to avoid construction in or around wetlands. It is, however, not beyond the scope of possibility that we will have to work on lines existing in the vicinity of wetlands or that engineering constraints may leave us few options for new construction. If work is required in or around wetlands, we will address this issue in the SEPA review for that specific project. Reasonable effort will be made to maintain the integrity of, restore, or replace all wetlands areas as required by State and local regulations. 3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material. Any fill and dredge material that may be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 4) Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. We do not anticipate that there will be any discharge to or withdrawal from surface water. The Sewer Comprehensive Plan proposes elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that could cause discharge of contaminated waters to surface waters in the event a failure occurs. 5) Does the proposal lie within a 100-year flood plain? If so, note location on the site plan. Portions of specific projects may be located within the 100-year flood plain. These projects will address this issue in the SEPA review of the individual projects. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 6) Does the proposal involve any discharges of waste materials to surface waters? If so, describe the type of waste and anticipated volume of discharge. Any potential discharge of waste materials to surface waters will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. b. Ground Water: 1) Will ground water be withdrawn, or will water be discharged to ground water? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. We do not anticipate that there will be any discharge to or withdrawal from ground water. The Sewer Comprehensive Plan proposes elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that could cause discharge of contaminated waters to ground waters in the event a failure occurs. The study also proposes design and construction standards for use in the Aquifer Protection Areas. 2) Describe waste material that will be discharged into the ground from septic tanks or other sources, if any (for example: Domestic sewage; industrial, containing the following chemicals...; agricultural; etc.). Describe the general size of the system, the number of E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -6- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist such systems, the number of houses to be served (if applicable), or the number of animals or humans the system(s) are expected to serve. This study proposes guidelines and projects that will result in the reduction of discharges into the ground water by reducing the potential failure of Renton's sewer system, and allowing for elimination of septic systems. This will be a beneficial impact of this Plan. Any potential discharge of waste materials into the ground will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. c. Water Runoff(including storm water): 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. There will be no runoff that can be directly attributed to the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan or any completed project as described within. Any runoff that may occur during construction of the capital improvement projects will be subject to City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements provided in the SEPA finding. 2) Could waste material enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. No discharge of waste materials to ground or surface waters will result from the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. The Plan discusses and proposes design and construction policies in the Aquifer Protection Areas as well as proposing a sanitary sewer system that will allow for the elimination of on-site sewage disposal systems that may be allowing the discharge of contaminated material to surface or ground waters. d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts, if any: Proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts will be addressed the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -7- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 4. PLANTS a.

What kind and amount of vegetation will be removed or altered? It is expected that localized impacts to vegetation could occur as a result of clearing to accommodate construction of projected facilities. Any potential removal or alteration of vegetation will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes will be followed and any necessary removal will be mitigated at the time of application. c. List threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. It is currently unknown if threatened or endangered flora exists within the study area. If there are threatened or endangered species identified on or near the site of any individual project discussed within this Plan, the impacts will be considered and discussed during the SEPA review of that project. d. Proposed landscaping, use of native plants, or other measures to preserve or enhance vegetation on the site, if any: Any potential landscaping, use of native plants, or other measures to preserve or enhance vegetation on site will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. E:\96comp\SEP 98.doc\MAB -8- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 5. ANIMALS a. Circle any birds and animals which have been observed on or near the site or are known to be on or near the site: A wide variety of birds and animals native to the Puget Sound Lowlands are found within the study area. The more common are underlined below: Threatened or endangered species will be avoided, relocated or replaced wherever possible. Birds: hawk, heron, eagle, songbirds, other Mammals: deer, bear, elk, beaver, other Fish: bass, salmon, trout, herring, shellfish, other b. List any threatened or endangered species known to be on or near the site. Protected species such as the bald eagle have been observed within the study area. It is not expected that the proposed program would adversely impact these species over the long term. Short term construction related impacts may occur. These impacts would be discussed in the SEPA review of the specific project and avoided wherever possible. c. Is the site part of a migration route? If so, explain Yes. The Cedar River is a fish migration route used by Chinook, Coho and Sockeye Salmon; and Steelhead and Searun Cutthroat Trout. The Catalog of Washington Streams and Salmon Utilization contends that "for its size, the Cedar River in this section supports one of the largest populations of salmon in the State". The entire State of Washington is included within the Pacific flyway migration route. We do not anticipate any project within this plan having any major, long term impacts on migration routes. d. Proposed measures to preserve or enhance wildlife, if any: Any potential measures to preserve or enhance wildlife will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 6. ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES a. What kinds of energy (electric, natural gas, oil, wood stove, solar)will be used to meet the completed project's energy needs? Describe whether it will be used for heating, manufacturing, etc. Some facilities, such as lift stations, will require electrical energy in order to run the pumps and telemetry. We also use gas powered emergency generators to power stations in case of an electrical failure. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -9- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist b. Would your project affect the potential use of solar energy by adjacent properties? If so, generally describe. None of the proposed project facilities would cast shadows affecting adjacent or surrounding properties. c. What kinds of energy conservation features are included in the plans of this proposal? List other proposed measures to reduce or control energy impacts, if any: All facilities will be constructed utilizing efficient energy use systems that will not effect safety or reliability. Whenever the option is available, sewage lift stations will be eliminated and gravity sewers constructed to reduce the electrical power consumption of the system. 7. EN IRONMENTAL HEALTH a. Are there any environmental health hazards, including exposure to toxic chemicals, risk of fire and explosion, spill, or hazardous waste, that could occur as a result of this proposal? If so, describe. There are no environmental health hazards directly associated with the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. This Plan will have a beneficial impact by helping to reduce environmental health hazards by making sanitary sewer service available to land uses that generate pollutants. Renton's wastewater collection system, like any other, has the potential of spill or environmental health hazard because of failure due to lack of funding or personnel to maintain or replace the system as needed. This Plan documents and proposes policy and procedures to minimize the potential of a health hazard. The system is also susceptible to catastrophic events such as earthquakes. We cannot plan against them, if the ground moves significantly the line will rupture. The Comprehensive Plan recommends that the City Wastewater Utility prepares an Emergency Response Plan. 1) Describe special emergency services that might be required. The Wastewater Utility's Maintenance Division and City's Emergency Services Departments are on call, 24 hour a day, to address any emergencies that may occur. 2) Proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards, if any: This document details policy and design criteria, such as policies for the design or elimination of lift station, and design loading or design period of our sewer facilities, intended to reduce this possibility to the absolute minimum. b. Noise 1) What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your project (for example: traffic, equipment, operation, other)? Existing noise is not anticipated to affect construction or operation of projects proposed in this plan. E:\96comp\SEP•98.doc\MAB -10- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 2) What types and levels of noise would be created by or associated with the project on a short-term or a long-term basis (for example: traffic, construction, operation, other)? Indicate what hours noise would come from the site. There will not be any noise involved with the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. The projects identified in this Plan will have short term noise impacts associated with their construction. After they are put into operation, lift stations will generate minimal levels of noise. Underground stations would be muffled by the ground so as to be practically silent while above-ground stations will have a hum that would be quieter than the noise of an arterial such as Sunset Blvd. or Main Avenue. 3) Proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any: When projects are developed pursuant to this Comprehensive Plan, the construction of those projects will meet all City or County codes including those regulating noise. 8., LAND AND SHORELINE USE a. What is the current use of the site and adjacent properties? Current land uses within the area of this study vary from heavy industrial to single family residential to vacant. b. Has the site been used for agriculture? If so, describe. Many portions of this study area have a history of agricultural uses. Any projects identified within this document that may be in an area once used for agriculture will address this issue in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. c. Describe any structures on the site. Structures vary throughout the project are from residential to industrial. This includes single family, multi-family, commercial, retail, office, light manufacturing and heavy manufacturing. d. Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? When eliminating or replacing a lift station, the structure housing the station may be demolished. Demolition of any other structures for or during the construction of any the identified projects is not anticipated. If a structure must be demolished, it will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. Compensation and relocation, if necessary, would be addressed in project specific documentation. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. e. What is the current zoning classification of the site? The Comprehensive Plan covers all areas of the City and involves all zoning within the City code. Current zoning varies depending upon the specific location of individual projects within the comprehensive planning area. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -1 1- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site? The 1995 City of Renton Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) designates land use within the City limits. The remainder of the program planning area, which is in unincorporated King County, uses the 1994 King County Comprehensive Plan (as ammended) to designate land use. All of the study area in unincorporated King County is designate "urban". Three Community Plans, New Castle (1988), Soos Creek (1991), and West Hill (1994) were used as additional information in the County areas. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas identified in the Shoreline Master Program for the City of Renton. Any of the projects within these areas will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. h. Has any part of the site been classified as an "environmentally sensitive" area? If so, specify. Some of the projects identified within this document are in areas that may be classified as "environmentally sensitive" in categories such as soils, slopes, and wetlands. These projects will be addressed in the SEPA review of the individual project to determine the alternative with the least environmental impact. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? Presently, the City of Renton Sanitary Sewer System services approximately 11,000 customer accounts (domestic and commercial). This study addresses sewer needs for full (saturation) development under current Comprehensive Land Use Plans. When the study area identified in this Plan is fully developed (under current land use) and the necessary sewer system is in place, we project approximately 20,000 customers. j. Approximately how many people would the completed project displace? It is not anticipated that any projects identified within this Plan would displace anyone within the project area. k. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce displacement impacts, if any: Does not apply. Proposed measures to ensure the proposal is compatible with existing and projected land uses and plans, if any: This proposed Comprehensive Sewer System Plan was prepared to be consistent with the City's and County's Comprehensive Land Use Plans and with the comprehensive sewer system plans of each adjacent municipality. The Wastewater Utility will maintain coordination with the City's Land Use Comp Plan by updating E:\96comp\SEPA'8.doc\MAB -12- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist or amending our Plan as needed. To ensure compatibility the Plan will be reviewed by all applicable State agencies and adjacent utilities. 9. HOUSING a. Approximately how many units would be provided, if any? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. No housing units will be provided as a result of the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan. This Plan addresses the development of the sewer system needed for land uses under the current (1995) City Land Use Plan. Any housing units constructed concurrently or subsequently to projects identified in this study will be per adopted City of Renton Land Use Plans and Polices. The specific projects identified within this Plan will be designed to handle the capacity proposed in the Land Use Comp Plan current at that time. Sewer capacity is but one factor in the growth of the housing supply. Development should be per the Land Use Plan and not until all facilities (i.e., water, emergency services, schools, transportation) are in place. Therefore, no significant impact on housing will result from these projects. b. Approximately how many units, if any, would be eliminated? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. We do not anticipate the elimination of any units by either the adoption of this Plan or any subsequent projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control housing impacts, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor any of the projects talked about within this document will have any direct impacts on local or regional housing supply. None of the projects are of a scope that would require bringing large numbers of workers to the area for construction or operation. 10. AESTHETICS a. What is the tallest height of any proposed structure(s), not including antennas; what is the principal exterior building material(s) proposed. Some of the projects identified within this study will include sewage pumping stations which may be enclosed in small fiberglass enclosures (under 50 square feet), small permanent buildings (under 250 square feet) or under a freestanding canopied (carport type) structure. b. What views in the immediate vicinity would be altered or obstructed? Views of project areas would be altered during construction due to clearing, excavation and staging activities. It is not anticipated that any public views would be permanently blocked. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control aesthetic impacts, if any: E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -13- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist If any projects identified within this study have aesthetic impacts, they will be addressed in the SEPA review of that project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 11. LIGHT AND GLARE a. What type of light or glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it mainly occur? No light or glare will be produced by the adoption of this plan. The projects identified within this plan may create a temporary increase in ambient lighting during construction activity. Some lift stations may have security lighting. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? No. c. What existing off-site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal? None. d. j Proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any: Lighting will be focused and directed to mitigate any potential lighting impacts. If I any lighting over 300 watts is used, it will be shielded to prevent light and glare impacts on the adjacent residents. 12. RECREATION a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? This study area has numerous recreational opportunities such as facilities belonging to the City of Renton Parks Department (including parks, trails, community center, and the Maplewood Golf Course), King County (such as parks and trails), the Renton School District(play fields) and private parties (beaches and docks). b. Would the proposed project displace any existing recreational uses? If so, describe. We do not anticipate any permanent impacts to existing recreational usage. Some of the projects identified within this Plan may have temporary impacts, such as access problems, during construction. There is also the potential for recreational enhancement such as trails that may be developed as part of some sewer projects. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts on recreation, including recreation opportunities to be provided by the project or applicant, if any: Neither the adoption of this Plan nor the construction of the projects identified in the study will have any permanent impacts on recreational opportunities. Some of the projects may have temporary impacts during construction or the potential for recreational enhancement. These items would be discussed in the SEPA review of the individual project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements,will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. E:\96comp\SEP 98.doc\MAB -14- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 13. HISTORIC AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION a. Are there any places or objects listed on, or proposed for, national state, or local preservation registers known to be on or next to the site? If so, generally describe. None are known. b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the site. None are known. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts, if any: Any measures that may be necessary to reduce or control impacts will be mitigated at the time individual projects are reviewed per SEPA requirements. If any evidence of historical, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance is discovered, there will be a cessation of construction activity until a proper survey can be completed. 14. TRANSPORTATION a. Identify public streets and highways serving the site, and describe proposed access to the existing street system. Show on site plans, if any. The Transportation System within the study area consists of major transportation corridors, arterials, City streets, and local access roads. The major transportation corridors include Interstate 405, State Route 167 (Valley Freeway), State Route 169 (Maple Valley Highway), State Route 900 (Sunset Highway), and State Route 515 (old Benson Highway). The City's sewer system is planned and constructed, in most part,to utilize public street rights of way. b. Is site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? Yes. Transit service is available throughout the City. c. How many parking spaces would the completed project have? How many would the project eliminate? Does not apply. d. Will the proposal require any new roads or streets, or improvements to existing roads or streets, not including driveways? If so, generally describe (indicate whether public or private? The projects identified within this Plan will not require any new roadways. Construction impacts may make it necessary to make temporary improvements to accommodate access or to restore an existing roadway. e. Will the project use (or occur in the immediate vicinity of) water, rail, or air transportation? If so, generally describe. Does not apply. E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -15- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist f. How many vehicular trips per day would be generated by the completed project? If known, indicate when peak volumes would occur. There will be a temporary increase in vehicular trips during the construction of the projects identified within this Plan. The amount of vehicular trips generated by the completed projects and the enlargement of the system should be offset by the reduction in trips due to the replacement of high maintenance facilities, such as old concrete lines or lift stations. g. Proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any: If any of the projects identified within this document have impacts to transportation, the impacts will be discussed in the SEPA Checklist submitted for that project. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 15. PUBLIC SERVICES a.

SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NON-PROJECT ACTIONS (This sheet should only be used for actions involving decision on policies, plans and programs. Do not use this sheet for project actions.) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general terms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? This Comprehensive Sewer Plan is a long range proposal and documentation of policy, design criteria, and recommended facility improvements. It will be used as a guide in maintaining and improving the system. When we construct any of the proposed rehabilitation or replacements, there will be the potential of discharge to the environment, as we connect or bypass active lines. This potential is minor, however, when compared to the probable impact a neglected and deteriorating facility would have. It is our intent that, by following the guidelines proposed in this plan and by using proper construction practices, any potential discharge during construction will be averted. Proposed measure to avoid or reduce such increases are: This study proposes guidelines and specific projects will reduce the possibility of release of toxic or hazardous substances by reducing the potential of failure of Renton's sewer system, and allowing for the elimination of septic systems. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? Adoption of this Plan will not directly affect plants, animals, fish or marine life. However, there will be the potential of indirect impacts as projects identified within the plan are constructed. Those impacted were discussed in Sections B.4 and B.5 of this checklist. Proposed measure to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Any projects identified within this document that may affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life will address this issued in the SEPA review of the individual project. Any threatened or endangered species of plants will be avoided, relocated, or replaced wherever possible. It is not expected that the proposed program would have any long term impact of animals or fish. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. Ii:\'.)6comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -17- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? It is not anticipated that the adoption of this Plan or the construction of any projects identified within will have any significant impact on the depletion of energy or natural resources. (See Section B.6 of this checklist.) Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: Many projects identified in this study will remove sewage pumping stations in favor of gravity systems and thus reduce the utilities energy consumption. All City or County codes, as well as any outside agency requirements, will be met as provided in the SEPA finding. 4 How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? The Wastewater Utility is creating this Comprehensive Plan to identify, document, and propose policies for the maintenance and construction of our sewer system in a manner that is consistent with the public health and water quality objectives of the State of Washington as well as the goals set by the City and County to protect environmentally sensitive areas. It is the Wastewater Utility's intent to strike a balance where we avoid environmentally sensitive areas where feasible; prevent or reduce the maintenance or deterioration of our system; and eliminate septic systems where they pose a potential threat to the environment. (See Sections B.1, B.3 and B.8 of this checklist). Proposed measures to protect such resources or to avoid or reduce impacts are: Construction of the new facilities as well as the redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to protect environmentally sensitive areas and with measures to mitigate any potential impacts. These will be addressed on a project by project basis, as appropriate,when they are submitted for SEPA review. 5. How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? The City's adopted Land Use Plan was reviewed to ensure that this Comprehensive Sewer System Plan would be compatible with land and shoreline use. The development of new facilities and redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts where feasible and still maintain the purpose of a sewer utility. This Plan and the projects identified within it are not sensitive enough to land use as to allow or disallow uses that are incompatible with existing Plans. We supply sewer service (urban services) to areas designated urban as per State requirements. How the land or shoreline is used is determined by the Land Use Plan. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: Construction of the new facilities as well as the redevelopment of existing facilities will be accomplished in a manner to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use E:\96comp\SEPA98.doc\MAB -18- 1998 City of Renton Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan Environmental Checklist impacts and with measures to mitigate any potential impacts. These will be addressed on a project by project basis, as appropriate, when they are submitted for SEPA review. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? This Comprehensive Sewer System Plan provides a guideline to help accommodate the increased demand for sewer service that the City has been and is expected to continue providing as the City develops. This Plan addresses the demands on the sewer system based on adopted Comprehensive and Land Use Plans and will not increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities. The projects identified within this Plan will be phased by priority per the criteria set forth in the Plan with emphasis put on the rehabilitation and replacement of existing systems; aquifer protection; and removal of lift stations. There will be times when the minimum size pipe needed will have more capacity available than desired or when the most efficient use of funds is to put in a larger line, designed for the build-out of the basin, when a smaller line will be adequate in resolving the current problem. The excess sewer capacity itself will not increase the demand of other public services. Any subsequent development that has an impact on public services will have to provide the additional services to satisfy the demand. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: This Plan addresses the increased demand put on the sewer utility by development in and around the City and what is foreseen as development occurs per the current adopted Land Use Plan. As the Land Use Plan is updated, the Sanitary Sewer Comp Plan will also be updated. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. This Plan is in accordance with all local, State and Federal law and requirements for the protection of the environment. C.

Current and projected growth in this area necessitates expanded sewer service as required by the State Growth Management Act (GMA). This expanded UGB creates the need to reevaluate and reconsider alignments and sizing for future sewer service in this area. This report evaluates and presents options to fulfill this need. The report complements the 1998 Long-Range Wastewater Management Plan. Project Objectives This study evaluates options for providing sanitary sewer service to the growing East Maplewood area of the Urban Growth Area. Project Goals The location and limits of the study area are shown on Figure Indentify options for sewer service which best: 1 (Vicinity Map). The study presents conceptual layouts of "Provide adequate sewer capacity to serve Renton's sewer collection systems within Urban Growth Area the study area that could flow f Reduce contaminants in the Aquifer Protection Area mostly by gravity to the existing King County Metro sewer Minimize short term adverse environmental impacts interceptor in SR-169 or to lift • station(s) at various locations. �• === The report also compares costs imize _ '� _ -•st of•• �;ng to , _ _ _ for each option, including = capital, financing and operation and maintenance costs. Construction of the projects described in the report would provide sanitary sewer service to meet the project's goals. Project History In 1989, the City of Renton's Planning Division notified the Renton Public Works Division that several housing developments were proposed for the East Maplewood area. The Public Works Division asked RH2 Engineering to determine the proposed developments' impact on the sanitary sewer system. The subsequent report identified a need for additional sewer system capacity and four possible alignments for a sewer interceptor serving the area to provide the needed capacity.

The report's findings led the Renton City Council to adopt Resolution ► the Maplewood Heights (East Maplewood) 2764 on July 17, 1989, imposing a Interceptor, temporary moratorium on new sewer ► the Ravine Interceptor, connections in this area of the city. The moratorium resolution also ;; ;;�- ,ere;ri �;�, directed the Planning/Building/Public ���� Works Department to solve the sewer 3717rwap -wo• Mcep • ,_ capacity problems in the study area. RH2 completed a series of reports and studies over the next several years including a Pre-design Report and Draft, Final and Addendum Environmental Impact Statements addressing this objective. On March 8, 1993, the Renton City Council selected a preferred sewer interceptor alignment that combined aspects of the West Maplewood and East Maplewood Interceptor Alternatives. This interceptor has been constructed and is currently providing the capacity that was needed to serve the growth projected at the time of its design. East Maplewood Sewer Collection After the City had selected and Study Process begun construction of the East Maplewood sewer interceptor alignment, the Renton City Council adopted a new Urban compile j ! Jeri basins Develop Growth Boundary (UGB) and raviaw .► a future tarn captual ♦ . Land Use Map for this area on February 20, 1995. The new UGB changed and expanded the 4/ ___ basin boundaries for the city's ' __ future sewer service area resulting in the need for this report to identify options to adequately serve the new subbasins and basins. Figure 2, (Existing Collection System and Sanitary Sewer Basins) shows the limits of the new East Maplewood basin, its relation to the existing sewer basins in Renton and boundaries of the study area for this report.

STUDY APPROACH Development of this report followed a relatively straightforward process beginning with the review of existing data, reports and records. This existing data was used to define many of the physical constraints for the study. Two critical physical constraints were the location of basin boundaries and existing "dry sewers" within subdivisions in unincorporated King County. These constraints defined the layout of the initial gravity sewer system that formed the foundation for all of the subsequent options and evaluations. Factors that Prescribed Study Boundaries The study area, commonly known as the rtsj atxy East Renton Plateau, includes the Heather Cr , Downs, Honeydew, and Highlands's neighborhoods in the northeast portions of dar_ -6 .,t. .oydari- incorporated Renton. The bulk of the study s tatp soulitatn bluff a r a aloptnant tusk ij ---- area however, encompasses property _ r sl r Rivas* ■ Anna a tijt,4 at otpor• — outside of current Renton city limits, but ,n ■ within the latest adopted UGB northeast of the City. The study boundaries lie west of 184th Avenue SE, north of Renton-Maple Valley Highway (SR-169), east of 136th Avenue SE, and south of SE 120th Street generally (see Figure 1,Vicinity Map). The study area lies to the east of three current sewer basins: the South Highlands, Maplewood, and Heather Downs Basins. The boundaries of these basins generally follow Interstate 405 on the west, NE 7th Street on the north, 136th Avenue SE on the east, and the Renton-Maple Valley Highway to the south (see Figure 2, Existing Collection System and Sanitary Sewer Basins). According to the City of Renton's Comprehensive Plan, adopted February 20, 1995, the study area is currently zoned a combination of"Residential Single Family" as well as "Residential Rural." Residential single family areas are described as areas that "protect and enhance the character of single family neighborhoods, improve opportunities for better public transportation, and make more efficient use of urban services and infrastructure." Common zoning designations in these areas are five and eight units per acre. Residential rural areas are intended to "preserve open space and natural resources and protect environmentally sensitive areas by limiting residential development in critical areas..." One and five units per acre are common zoning designations within this category. Most of the study area is designated Residential Single Family. The northern and southern edges of the study area are classified as Residential Rural. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 7 o`'" Chapter One Assumptions/Methodologies Both physical and regulatory considerations defined the outlines of this study. One of the most overriding physical considerations is the existence of a steep bluff running along the entire southern portion of the study area. This significant topographic feature defines the edge of the plateau that dominates the study area. It also limits options for serving the area with sewers. The natural flow for sewers in the study area is from the north towards this bluff. However, it is desirable to limit the number of times sewer lines descend the bluff for both environmental and cost reasons. Only relatively few feasible corridors exist for installing a sewer line down the bluff from the plateau to the valley. This fact, together with the location of existing "dry" or unused sewers,played an important part in shaping the sewer system layouts in this report. From the inception of the study, consideration of existing "dry" or unused sewers influenced the work. Dry sewers are sanitary sewers installed in a new development but not connected to either the homes or the regional sewer system. The intent of installing dry sewers is that eventually the homes in the project that are initially served by septic drainfields would be connected to the sanitary sewer system. Initially, the existence of dry sewers in the study area was mostly anecdotal. In order to confirm whether dry sewers existed in the study area, RH2 reviewed King County plat tracings, franchise records, and other information to map the location and, if possible, the size, slope and materials, of existing sanitary sewers within the East Maplewood area. Field Figure 3: Total Length of Pipe for Options A-E trips to corroborate the location of the dry sewers OCO IL .001111. were also conducted. Crossing the Cedar River to .001)11 access the Metro sewer system was a fmal ,�,�„�� consideration in the layout of rI the sewer system options. IThe existing Metro �"°°` ` ! I I interceptor lies south of the MOM ILCedar River. Conveying I I I wastewater to this facility requires crossing the river. Two existing sewer conduits exit via the recently Colon spice aN.c aplsD ops.e constructed East Maplewood Interceptor and through sewer lines located in the Maplewood Golf courses. However, if a gravity option were pursued, new crossings of the Cedar River would be required for both the central subbasin (Basin Two) and the eastern subbasin(Basin Four). Regulatory considerations also substantially influenced the configuration of the options in this report. As mentioned above, the new UGB adopted by the Renton City Council provided the catalyst for the study. This action also substantially expanded the future sewer service area for the East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 8 Chapter One city. Future land use patterns planned by either King County or the City of Renton are similar and will result in comparable densities and wastewater flows. However since this area represented an expansion of the service area, flow projection data and analysis contained in the East Renton Interceptor EIS and Predesign Report required updating. The improvements evaluated in this report are conceived in a manner to serve development occurring either under King County's or the City of Renton's land use plans and regulations. The timing of development affected the evolvement of the sewer options in this report in two ways. First, significant portions of the study area are already developed with subdivisions and related support activities. As alluded to above, some of these subdivisions already have sewer lines in the streets. Most of the homes and subdivisions in the study area do not have dry sewer lines but are served by on-site sewage disposal systems. However, the street patterns set by this existing development,prescribes the options for extending sanitary sewer service. Proposed new development and new extensions also impacted thinking during the development of study options. For example, the Renton School District had requested an extension of sewer service to Maplewood Elementary. Thus, configuration of options needed to support this service. In addition, major residential developments in the study area are pursuing extension of service. The timing of these new housing projects will influence the phasing and therefore the configuration of any sewer option. A fmal regulatory consideration is the question of annexation and incorporation. Petitions for both (that included portions of the study area) were active during the development of this report. The ultimate resolution of these processes will have a great bearing on the ultimate configuration of sewers in the study area. Sewer System Option Development The project goals and physical and regulatory factors set the framework for the initial option to serve the study area. The initial objective was to create an all gravity option for the study area. Careful analysis of topography revealed that two small areas (one on the western edge of the study area and one along the western edge of Jones Road) could only be served with lift stations. These two small lift stations became common elements to all options. They were labeled: • SE 135th Street Lift Station • SE Jones Road Lift Station Permutation Factors Grading development of sewenng optio'- Option A became the "all gravity" alternative for this study. While it does include the two small lift stations described above, all other wastewater would be conveyed by gravity via three main routes. Sewage is directed out of the study area Ftti.a Ji.-7E Jr through the southern end of Basin Three out ai to Maple Valley Highway. Sewage will also East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 9 Chapter One 164 flow out the southwestern corner of Basin Two, also to the Maple Valley Highway. Finally, sewage will be directed through the western side of Basin One along SE 128th Street (see Figure 9, Sanitary Sewer Option A). Relying on gravity to move sewage allows a minimum amount of lift stations and force main, reducing the cost of this option. Option A consists of about 256,000 feet of gravity sewer pipe and about 1,100 feet of force main pipe through four sewage basins of roughly the same size Using Option A as a staring point,permutation of options began. These options were limited by the physical and regulatory consideration discussed above. Therefore, since Option A represented the "most" gravity dependent option, only options that included more force mains (and lift stations) presented themselves. Options B and C present two variations on the theme of increasing the amount of force mains to serve the study area. Option B assumes that sewage cannot be directed out the southwest corner of Basin Two. This requires that sewage be pumped up to Basin One, where a gravity system can then transport sewage out of the study area. This increases the costs, both capital and operating, of this option as compared with Option A. The rest of the sewage is still conveyed by gravity as in Option A. This option consists of 255,000 feet of gravity pipe and 8,300 feet of force main pipe that convey sewage through the same four basins as above (see Figure 3, Total Length of Pipe for Options A-E). In addition to the two lift stations mentioned above, a third lift station will be located at the end of SE 141 st Street(see Figure 11, Sanitary Sewer Option B). Option C relies more heavily on the use of lift stations to convey sewage. Sewage would still be pumped uphill into Basin One as was proposed in Option B, but Option C would now convey sewage in Basin Three Figure 4: Comparison of Peak Capacity for Major Lift Stations in by gravity to a Opdons BE* southerly point. Sewage would then be 4000 pumped uphill through sa- Basin Two, and eventually into Basin One. The additional pumping equipment 3100 p further raises the costs of this option. I 3.000 MOVE MOO p This option consists of P xeoo the same amount of gravity pipe as Option 11OOp SOOp B, but contains 13,400 LOOD SO, feet of force main pipe as opposed to 8,300 feet in B. (See Figure °"`mBOplKs C Op=DOpecaa 3, Total Length of ..00umAms not rummy sacc4Rferma USE 135th Street&164thMe ESE 141stStseet 0154thFaceSE East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 10 At, Chapter One v Pipe for Options A-E). A fourth lift station is also included in this option on 154th Place SE (near the SE Jones Road station). (See Figure 13, Sanitary Sewer Option C) This option is the second most expensive of the options due to the amount of force main pipes and lift stations used. The fundamental difference among Options A, B and C is the increasing amount of force main and numbers of lift stations. This represents the first permutation of service options to the study area. Figure 4 (Comparison of Peak Capacity for Major Lift Stations in Options B-E) illustrates the differences in size and location of lift stations for these three options (as well as Options D and E). Remember that all options have the two small lift stations at SE 135th Street and SE Jones Road. Options D and E would require the largest lift stations. This is due to the fact that these two options must pump more sewage uphill than in Options A, B, or C. The second array of permutation factors used in the development of options relates to the configuration of the subbasins served by sewers. Modifying the limits of the subbasins is possible because sewers can be laid at various depths. This permits installation of relatively deep sections of sewer pipe to be installed under undulating topography and still maintain adequate gravity flow. In the case of this study,the timing of development was also a factor in the basin configuration as well. For Options D and E, it was assumed that the area covered by Basin Three would develop more quickly than the other basins in the study area. This lead to the alteration of the size of each sewage basin. In this configuration, Basin Three becomes the largest basin, partly due to development in the northeast corner. The size of Basin Two is reduced to minimize the necessary workload on the SE 141 st lift station. Sewage is no longer pumped up to Basin One. Sewage would now be pumped into Basin Three and then be conveyed by gravity down to the Maple Valley Highway. Figure 5: Comparison of Area for Each Basin for Options A,B,&C As shown in Figure 5, versus Options D&E __ (Comparison of Area for 18" Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D „�._ & E) Options A, B, and C contain the same amount of area for Basins One through e �� Four. In each of these t proposed options, Basin eoo�10se. nes SNc Four is the largest proposed sewage basin. Basin Four II also contains the largest area of residential units and M. population total. Therefore im in Options A, B, and C, Basin Four will have the Brzo �°m Ream J largest dry weather Options A,B,&C E3 Options D&E I capacities, peak dry weather East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page I 1 V`VY 0 Chapter One capacities, inflow and infiltration, and average capacity. Basin One has the smallest dry weather capacities, peak dry weather capacities, and average capacity despite the fact that Basin Two contains the smallest area of residential population of all the basins (see Figure 2, Existing Collection System and Sanitary Sewer Basins). Options D and E on the other hand, would almost double the residential area of Basin Three, while reducing the area of Basin Two by three quarters. Basin One and Basin Four remain relatively the same size (see Figure 5, Comparison of Area for Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D & E). Basin Four will still produce the largest dry weather capacities, peak dry weather capacities, inflow and infiltration, and average capacity (see Figure 6, Comparison of Peak Flows Assigned to Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D & E). Option D consists of 155,000 feet of gravity sewer pipe, but requires less force main than Options B and C, requiring 4,700 feet (see Figure 3, Total Length of Pipe for Options A-E). In addition to these changes, this option has four lift stations: 1. the SE Jones Road, 2. the SE 141'1 Street, 3. the SE 135th Street station, and 4. a new lift station located at the intersection of 164th Avenue SE and SE 135th Street Option E contains many of the same assumptions as Option C, but with the "new" sewage basin structure. Sewage is pumped uphill by means of two large lift stations into Basin One. As with Option D, development of the northeast corner of Basin Three is still assumed. Sewage in Basin Three is conveyed by gravity to a southerly point, and then pumped into Basin One. This option consists of Figure 6: Comparison of Peak Flows Assigned to Each Basin for 255,000 feet of gravity pipe, Options A,B,&C versus Options D&E but has the most force main % of all the options requiring 5 203 14,200 feet of pipe (see 000 Figure 3, Total Length of 4.200 gm Pipe for Options A-E). The basin boundaries for this = `•°°° option are the same as in g --- Option D. Five lift stations ems_ s_ are included in this option, i - the same four as in Option D, d z. and the fifth at the intersection of 164th Avenue C15. SE and SE 135th Street. Option E includes the most and largest lift stations. B, - Ham Bees 3 irar Opoau A,B & Options D&E East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 12 `CY ° Chapter One F SUMMARY This study used a significant amount of data analysis common to all five options. The analysis for wastewater flow, pipe lengths, pipe cost, unit costs, sizing and cost estimates for the lift stations, and annual power costs was the same for each option. The pipe lengths for Options A through E represent a key consideration of cost comparison. Options A through E contain similar amounts of gravity line, roughly 255,000 feet of various size pipes. The difference between the options regarding pipe length lies in the amount of force main each option requires. In this case, Option E requires the most force main pipe with 14,200 feet. Option A contains the least with 1,100 required feet (see Figure 3, Total Length of Pipe for Options A-E). All of the options presented in this chapter will meet the project goals. The cost of the options range from $51,275,000 for Option A to $67,628,000 for Option E (see Figure 7, Comparison of the Total Costs for Options A-E). Planned growth in the study area mandates careful planning regarding sewers to assure adequate capacity and compliance with the City's Growth Management objectives. The following chapters describe each of the options in a detailed manner and describe the cost comparisons between the options in detail as well. When evaluating options, Figure 7: Comparison of the Total Costs for Options A-E factors in addition to cost must also be considered. At the beginning of this f/0'000.000 S66639.000 $67621.000 chapter some of those factors were outlined, w.000.000 including: 0 Adequate capacity to K0.000.000 ; $372311,0110 serve the UGA 0 Preventing groundwater 7 S33,000.000 contamination "'�""' 0 Minimizing environmental impacts impacts 0 Minimizing total costs S43000.000-" 0 Minimizing connection costs $40.00e.000 O,tioe A O,Ooe B OOuee C Opoe D o,r• Cost—both initial capital as well as ongoing maintenance — must be considered. Figure 7 (Comparison of the Total Costs for Options A-E) graphically compares total costs of each option. However, estimates of total costs may not reveal the entire picture. The ease of phasing project elements to accommodate the unpredictable timing and location of development constitutes another important factor. If an option depends on a key component that East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc 10/03/97 Page 13 �1�Y o Chapter One •C). � N • has no flexibility as to the timing of its installation, the option may not be as desirable as one that may be more expensive.

Table 1-1, Option Ratings, illustrates the relative ranking of each of the five sewer system options for this study. While no option dominates the ratings, Option D narrowly scores higher than the others. More detailed descriptions and analysis of the basis for these ratings are contained in Chapters Three and Four. RECOMMENDATIONS Follow-up to this study lies in two main East Maplewood Collection Study areas: phasing and funding. So much of the desirability and feasibility of any of the Fr,..,,„. options depends on the phasing of sewer Elliott Bridge Crossing improvements in the study area. The Phasing Briar Hills dry sewers phasing of the required elements of the system is affected by many elements (most Temporary lift station siting of which are unpredictable and uncontrollable) nevertheless, three primary Funding__— arenas of effort stand out. __ First, is provision for a sewer interceptor 1111611.11110 on the proposed new Elliott Bridge. The most reliable and cost effective options for carrying wastewater out of the study area would bring flows by gravity south down 154th Avenue and across the Cedar River. Crossing the Cedar on a bridge would be the most prudent type of crossing involving the least complicated permitting process and environmental impacts. Therefore, one key step that should be taken, as follow-up to East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 14 Chapter One this report, is to assure that provisions are made in the design of the new Elliott Bridge for a major sewer interceptor that could serve the study area. The second phasing consideration is the dry sewer system in the plats of Briar Hills and Briarwood Lane. The precise size, location, condition and slope of the sewer systems will dramatically shape the selection process for providing sewer service to the study area. Therefore, it would be most prudent to initiate a detailed survey and inventory of these facilities to determine their physical state. The final consideration is the location of temporary lift stations. It is highly unlikely that a comprehensive regional and local wastewater collection system would be installed at once within the study area. Therefore, it will most likely be necessary to site and design temporary lift stations that would serve on an interim basis until interceptors or permanent lift stations could be built. A more detailed plan for the timing, sizing and locations for these temporary lift stations should be prepared. Funding will be one of the major obstacles to implementing the concepts outlined in this report. Therefore, it would be wise (probably after completion of the phasing studies discussed above) to develop a plan to fund the improvement needed to provide sewers to this Urban Growth Area. This plan should consider, at a minimum, sources such as Centennial Clean Water Fund, Public Works Trust Fund, and Local Improvement Districts. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 15 Chapter Two ANALYSIS DESIGN AND STUDY CRITERIA This chapter describes the basic design criteria that were used to produce the five East Maplewood Collection sewer collection system options. Required wastewater system components, flow constituents, design criteria for gravity sewer systems and lift stations, cost, and environmental impacts drove the development of the options for this project. The sections below discuss how each of these criteria was used during the Sanitary Sewer Systems completion of this report that focuses on if; ';�!17 the development of a collector and interceptor sewer system to serve the study minimum wastewater f ow rate wh r area. maintaining adequate velocity and •;pth in tine sewer is a concern. and.- SYSTEM COMPONENTS mar mum ovrra s �rl�rl prey riiin� :r-�cSc-�p� Sanitary sewers convey wastewater from its 111 and overt;�,y-,i;an obj,iict, - source to a point of treatment. Wastewater flows vary considerably and there is seldom any control over the volume of wastewater that must be conveyed at any particular time. For this reason, sanitary sewer systems designs must accommodate both low flows and peak flows. The sanitary sewer system must transport all the constituents of the wastewater stream. In general, most of the floating materials are carried along with the flow stream. However, unless the system maintains minimum carrying velocities, suspended solids have a tendency to settle out of the wastewater stream. This requires that sanitary sewers be constructed with a minimum slope to maintain a gravity flow velocity that will continuously carry the suspended solids portion of the wastewater stream. Conversely, gravity sewer systems experience major spikes or Wastewater Constituents peaks in flow during different times of the day (high flows in the morning and evening and low flows in the late night suspended solids and early morning). In addition, storms exacerbate high flows in sewers because of leaks or inflow of storm water to the sanitary system. These peak flows must be accommodated without overflowing the -- system or causing wastewater to back-up —iniordism. .Y >1'-� > ! into homes and businesses. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 16 Chapter Two Gravity sewer systems convey wastewater the best. A gravity sewer system contains two main components: "collector sewers" which, as their name implies, collect the wastewater from the various sources; and "interceptor sewers" which are larger pipes that convey it to the point of treatment. Another major sewer Gravity Sewer System component, and typically the most vulnerable one, is the sewage lift station. A lift station is needed when the • sanitary sewer system must S 1' Iovercome topography that t 1.1 Q y makes it impossible or fmancially unfeasible to 1,4 construct a gravity sewer. Lift stations typically have multiple pumps to provide reliability and meet peak flow conditions. Many times lift stations may be located underground for aesthetic reasons. WASTEWATER FLOW COMPONENTS Wastewater is composed of four major components: domestic wastes, commercial/indutrial wastes, inflow, and infiltration. Each of these components produce a given volume of wastewater flow, as shown in Table 2-1 below, and is subject to a peaking factor that influences the sizing of sewer system elements. Domestic Wastes Domestic wastewater flows usually equal the winter water consumption of a residence. This water consumption is driven by the number of people living in a unit and therefore results in flow that may be expressed on a per capita basis. The average domestic wastewater flow used for this study is 125 gallons per day per person(gpdpp). Household size varies between single-family and multi- family units (see Table 2-1). Therefore, domestic wastewater generated by single-family and multi-family development is different. This variation in flow rates is resolved by creating a standardized unit of measurement called an Equivalent Residential Unit(ERU). An ERU represents the volume of domestic wastewater generated by one typical or "average" single-family household. Multiplying the average single-family household size (2.7 persons) by the per capita domestic flows (125 gdcpd) generates the value of an ERU. The product of this equation is 338 gallons per day per unit. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 17 o o� Chapter Two �4, • Fewer people typically live in a multi-family unit(1.8 persons), therefore; a multi-family unit is a fraction of an ERU. Use of the ERU concept allows easy conversion of residential land uses to sewage flows for study purposes. In this case, each projected multifamily unit will generate about two-third the domestic flow that a single-family unit would generate. In other words, the flow generated from 100 multi-family units would, on average, be the equivalent (e.g. ERU)of 66 single-family units. Commercial/Industrial Wastes Commercial and industrial wastewater is defined as the wastewater generated from a specific commercial or industrial operation. Commercial and industrial wastewater does not include waste generated by employees of the industry, which is considered domestic waste and Wastewater Flow excluded from this category. Since the cor; s study area does not contain any proposed commercial/industrial development or sights, consideration of these flows has mmirmitulownpromw been excluded from the study. Infiltration — Infiltration describes the seepage of groundwater into the sewer system through cracks, pores, breaks, and / defective joints in the sewer-piping network. Additional infiltration may also result when stormwater leaks through manhole covers. The quantity of water infiltrating into a sewer system depends upon many variables such as: the age of the system, materials used in construction, and the service area's hydrology, soils, and groundwater level. Infiltration can be substantially reduced by sufficiently designing a sewer system and by adequately inspecting them during construction. The average infiltration flow used in this report is 700 gallons per acre per day(gpad). Inflow Inflow refers to direct flows of stormwater into sewer systems through hookups from stormwater collection facilities and illegal connections. Illegal connections are primary contributors of inflow. The enforcement of regulations banning such connections, along with continued efforts to identify and correct previously unauthorized connections, minimizes stormwater inflow. The average inflow used in this report is 600 gpad. Peaking Wastewater does not flow at even rates. Flow rates vary according to the time of day and weather conditions. Wastewater flows rise during the morning and evening hours, which corresponds to a typical household routine of preparing for work or school, meal preparation, bathing, washing, etc. Conversely, domestic wastewater flows are lowest during the very early morning hours. Because of infiltration and inflow, wastewater flows also rise during rainstorms. Together these factors create flows that are highest during a heavy evening rainstorm. Sewage facilities must be designed East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 18 ��Y o Chapter Two to accommodate such peaks; otherwise overflows and backups will occur. For this •eport, a peaking factor of 1.4 times the average total flows (domestic plus commercial/industrial ,lus infiltration and inflow) is used. GRAVITY SEWER DESIGN CRITERIA The City of Renton prefers gravity sewers for two main reasons. First, they are more reliable. Force mains rely on mechanical and electronic systems. Any such system will periodically fail or malfunction. Gravity sewers are not mechanical and rely solely on the laws of gravity to operate. Second, they are less expensive. The electricity to operate lift stations and the staff to inspect and maintain the stations costs money. While gravity sewers must also be inspected and maintained, they almost always take less time and require less maintenance. The following criteria outline the sizing, performance and construction design criteria that a gravity sewer system must meet.

Gravity Sewer Sizing Wastewater flows are composed of domestic wastes, commercial/industrial wastes, and infiltration and stormwater inflow. Sanitary sewer systems must be capable of conveying the ultimate peak flows from these wastewater sources. No overflows are permitted. Gravity sewers are sized to provide capacity for peak, wet-weather flows. The smallest allowable diameter for gravity lines is 8 inches. The Manning equation is used to design and analyze wastewater flow characteristics of sanitary sewers. The Manning roughness constant [n] varies depending on the pipe material. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 19 tor Chapter Two Gravity Sewer Performance All sewers must be laid on a grade to produce a mean velocity, when flowing half-full, of at least 2 feet per second (fps). The maximum allowable infiltration is 700 gpd. The life expectancy for new sanitary sewers, using current design practices, is in excess of 50 years. Table 2-1: Gravity Sanitary Sewer Sizing Gravity Sewer Construction Criteria Average Domestic Sewage Flow 1: 125 gals/day/person Allowable sewer pipe must be ductile iron, HDPE, PVC, or 2.7 persons/dwelling concrete. For normal depth, PVC Population Density unit(single-family) is generally preferable because it 1.8 persons/dwelling has longer laying lengths, which unit(multi-family) , result in fewer joints, reducing the Commercial and Industrial Sewage potential for infiltration.

The King County Aerial Survey (K.C.A.S.) is the common Peak Inflow 600 gpad3 datum used within the City for Peaking Factor 1.4 design and construction of sewer facilities. The maximum preferred Depth/Diameter Ratio: 0.7 depth of a gravity sewer line is 20 Washington State Office of Financial Management,1992 feet. z King Count METRO }Gallons per acre per day The Department of Ecology requires separation of water and sewer facilities for health reasons. Therefore, sanitary and storm sewer facilities must have basic separation requirements for construction purposes. A minimum horizontal separation of 5 feet between sanitary and other facilities must be maintained. Wherever possible, a horizontal separation of 7 feet is desirable. These distances are measured edge-to-edge. LIFT STATION DESIGN CRITERIA Lift Station Sizing Lift stations must be designed with a minimum of two pumps, both of which have the capacity to convey peak wastewater flow rates. If wide variations in wastewater flow rates are expected into the lift station, then consideration should be given to the use of three or more pumping units. If three pumps are used, two of them must have the capacity to convey peak wastewater flow rates. Each pump must be capable of passing spheres of at least 3 inches in diameter. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 20 _tiY o� Chapter Two L.• • A v1r°� Each lift station must be provided with either an on-site or portable power backup. A lift station designed for portable power backup must be provided with sufficient wet-well storage to allow adequate time for City maintenance personnel to transport, set up, and provide the necessary backup during a power outage. Wet-well storage must be designed on the basis of peak wet-weather flows. Lift Station Performance When all pumps are operating together, the force main must have a maximum velocity of 10 fps. Regardless of the velocity criteria, minimum size must be 4 inches in diameter. The design period for lift stations must take into consideration long-term needs, replacement or expansion difficulties, service area growth rate, and useful life. A lift station should have a minimum design period of 20 years for the facility and 10 years for mechanical and electrical equipment. Consideration should be given to longer design periods for lift stations that are expected to serve an indefinite life. Consideration must also be given to the ability of the customers to pay for the facilities. COST/FINANCING Cost and financing become intertwined during the evaluation of a project. Essentially, the cost is what you pay and the financing is how you pay for a project. In evaluating the East Maplewood Collection options, the following cost factors were considered: capital cost and operation and maintenance costs. A brief description of each category follows. A more substantive analysis is presented in Chapter 4. Capital Costs Evaluation of capital costs considers total cost, life cycle cost, present value, and cost per ERU. These evaluations were performed for comparable time frames for each option. Operation and Maintenance Costs Evaluation of operation and maintenance costs should consider: • labor costs, • power costs, and • equipment costs. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Wastewater facility construction projects create two types of environmental impacts: direct and secondary. Direct impacts are caused by the actual construction of the option; for example, digging trenches requires erosion and sedimentation controls. Indirect impacts result from the increased development that typically happens after sewer service has been extended to a new area: for example, the long-term traffic congestion that results from increased development. For this study, environmental impacts similar to those outlined in the East Renton Interceptor Project Final EIS;November 1992 will be used. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 21 Chapter Three DESCRIPTION OF OPTIONS The majority of the East Maplewood Basin is located outside Renton City Limits. Currently most of this basin is without a sewer system. The small portion that is served by a sewer system is being pumped to the South Highlands Subbasin through the Honeydew Lift Station. Options were designed in response to the City's request to study options for providing efficient sanitary sewer service to the East Maplewood area (see Chapter 1). The purpose of this chapter is to describe each of the five options in detail. All of the options are based on the design criteria discussed in Chapter 2. A detailed description of the cost comparisons described in this chapter can be found in Chapter 4. RENTON'S CURRENT SEWER SYSTEM The City serves an area of about 16 square miles and is divided into six main sewage basins. Eighty percent of Renton's population is currently served by a sanitary sewer system. Those not served by sewers (a portion of who are currently in the East Maplewood study area) rely on septic tank/drainfield systems. The City's current sewer system operates 23 City of sewage lift stations. Renton Sewer The City's gravity sewer system relies Basins mainly on 8-inch diameter sanitary sewers. The system currently contains about 3,000 manholes. A complete breakdown of the different sewer sizes and pipe materials used can be seen in Flow to Table 3-1 (Summary of Existing Metro Renton Sewer Sizes and Pipe Tro atmel't Material). Punt All five options will increase the size of the current system and expand the City's sewer service area. While all five options will increase the amount of the system's gravity sewer similarly, the number of lift stations, force mains, and pumps will vary. OPTION A Description Option A provides sanitary sewer service to the entire East Maplewood study area by adding a total of 256,000 feet of gravity sewer line and 1,100 feet of force main to the current system. This addition will create a 32% increase in gravity sewer for the City. This option covers an area of East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 22 .An Chapter Three four proposed sewage basins. Of these, Basin 4 is be the largest containing 717 acres (see Figure 5, Comparison of Area for Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D & E). All four basins combined cover an area of 2,586 acres. This option features two new lift stations, one located at the intersection of SE Jones Road and 149th Avenue SE and one on SE 135th Street. Two pumps will be located at each lift station, resulting in a total of four more pumps to the current system. Due to the small amount of force main and lift stations needed for this option, it is the least expensive of all options. The total cost for this option is $51 million. This cost includes Table 3-1• Summary of Existing all operating and maintenance cost estimates as Renton Sewer Sizes and Pipe well as capital costs. A detailed cost breakdown Material will be discussed in Chapter 4. Pipe Size Summary Wastewater Quantity Pipe Diameter Length Percentage Option A serves a proposed area of 2,586 acres 6-inch 2.8 miles 1.8% including Basin 1 containing 530 acres, Basin 2 8-inch 93.5 miles 61.1% containing 514 acres, Basin 3 containing 717 10-inch 5.3 miles 3.5% acres, and Basin 4 containing 825 acres. This area 12-inch 7.8 miles 5.1% is comprised entirely by residential units. The 14-inch 0.2 miles 0.1% estimated population that will be served is 15-inch 2.4 miles 1.6% approximately 50,500 people. The projected 16-inch 0.1 miles 0.1% average quantity for the study area is calculated to 18-inch 2.2 miles 1.4% be 6,317,325 gallons per day. This number is 21-inch 0.8 miles 0.5% based on the average domestic sewage flow being 24-inch 1.5 miles 1.0% 125 gpd per person. The peak factor for this area Unknown 36.4 miles 23.8% is 1.4, so the peak quantity will be 8,844,255 gpd. Total 153 miles 100% Infiltration and inflow is estimated to be Pipe Material Summary 3,361,800 gpd, resulting in a total peak day uantity of 12,206,055 gpd for the East Pipe Material Length Percentage q Concrete Pipe 64 miles 41.8% Maplewood area.

For this reason, a Plan,March 1992 gravity sewer system will be used to meet the peak quantity demands of the East Maplewood area. Two types of pipes will be used, gravity sewer and force main. Gravity sewer, as the name implies, uses gravity to transport sewage. Force mains are connected to lift stations which pump sewage uphill. Option A contains gravity sewer and force mains with various diameters from 4- inches up to 24-inches. As seen in Figure 8 (Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 23 c'SY Chapter Three ♦ ♦ A), 8-inch gravity sewer is the predominant diameter used in this option with 200,000 feet estimated. This option requires a total of Figure 8: Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in 256,000 feet of gravity Option A sewer. The smallest 8.0001 allowable diameter for 11,500d gravity sewers is 8 inches. The sewer must maintain a 1,800 it minimum velocity, when 4'°°'� wastewater flows half full, of ° ','°Oa 2 feet per second. PVC will be used for sewer lines in this option. This allows for long laying lengths with pipe joints in the system, ultimately reducing infiltration. 200•000 For this option a total of only 1,100 feet of force main is Ic 4 (k"°""' or(dry) p10� ■12• 01! sir 021 WWI needed. Since all of the options will need roughly the same amount of gravity sewer, the difference between the options regarding pipe lengths lie in the amount of force main needed. Option A proposed the least amount of force main. In addition to requiring the least amount of force main of all of the options, 4-inch diameter force main will be used which is the smallest diameter of force main options. Force main must be capable of maintaining a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second. The force main must have a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second when pumps of a lift station are working together. The proposed force main will be located in two areas: (1) running in an east/west direction on SE Jones Road from the lift station, and (2) running in an east/west direction on SE 135th Street from that lift station (see Figure 9, Sanitary Sewer Option A). The estimated pipe costs for Option A, $36,537,000, is the least of all the options. This cost estimate includes unit costs for each size pipe including side sewer, materials, manholes, trenching, backfill,paving, and traffic control costs. Lift Stations Option A contains two proposed lift stations, the SE Jones Road station and the SE 135th Street station. Having only two lift stations is an important factor in this option due to the venerability of lift stations and high operation and maintenance costs. For example, the operation and maintenance costs for both lift stations is $79,600 a year (see Table 4-3, Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). The lift station at SE Jones Road is estimated to have a peak hour quantity of 200 gpm and an average quantity of 60 gpm. The elevation of the force main is 88 feet to 100 feet. The length of force main required for this section is approximately 720 feet. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 24 I MN u ...1,s - 1 ,;j u) 14--1 1.1k Ay/ \ T.

This station moves sewage from a beginning elevation of 370 feet to 375 feet. The estimated force main required for thi lift station is 400 feet of 4-inch PVC. Two pumps will be housed at this station, each with a capacity of 40 gpm. This station is expected to run 2,190 hours per year. OPTION B Description Option B will provide sanitary sewer service to the entire East Maplewood study area by adding a total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer line and 8,300 feet of force main to the current system. This ad 3ition will create a 32% increase in gravity sewer for the City. This option serves the same four proposed sewage basins as described in Option A. Again, Basin 4 is the largest containing 717 ac vs (see Figure 11, Sanitary Sewer Option B). All four basins combined cover an area of 2,:;86 acres. T1.is option features the same two lift stations, one located at the intersection of SE Jones Road and 149th Avenue SE and one on SE 135th Street, that were presented in Option A. Two pumps w 11 be located at each lift station. In addition to these lift stations, a third will be added at the end of SE 141st Street. This lift station will house three pumps, thus adding a total of seven pumps to th. current system. R'astewater Quantity Option B serves a proposed area of 2,586 acres with Basin 1 containing 530 acres, Basin 2 containing 514 acres, Basin 3 containing 717 acres, and Basin 4 containing 825 acres. This area is comprised entirely by residential units. The estimated population to be served is approximately 50,500 people. The projected average quantity for the study area is calculated to be 6,317,325 gallons per day. This number is based on the average domestic sewage flow of 125 gpd per person. The peak factor for this area is 1.4 so the peak quantity will be 8,844,255 gpd. Infiltration and inflow is estimated to be 3,361,800 gpd, resulting in a total peak day quantity of 12,206,055 gpd for the East Maplewood area. The sewer system proposed in Option B will meet these peak quantity requirements (see Figure 6, Comparison of Peak Flows Assigned to Each Basin for Q ptions A, B, & C versus Options D & E). Pipe Lengths/Type The topography of the area generally slopes from the northeast to the southwest. For this reason, a gravity sewer system will be used to meet the peak quantity demands of the East Maplewood area. Two types of pipes will be used, gravity sewer and force main. Gravity sewer, as the name implies, uses gravity to transport sewage. Force mains are connected to lift stations which pump sewage uphill.

As seen in Figure 10 (Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option B), 8-inch gravity sewer is the predominant diameter used in this option with an estimated 200,000 feet. A total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer will be required for this option. The smallest allowable diameter for gravity sewers is 8 inches. The sewer must maintain a minimum velocity, when flowing half full, of 2 feet per second. PVC will be used for sewer lines in this option, which allows for long laying lengths, which helps reduce joints in the system, ultimately reducing infiltration. For this option a total of 8,300 feet of force main is needed. Since all of the options will need roughly the same amount of gravity sewer, the difference between the options regarding pipe lengths lie in the amount of force main needed. Option B falls in the middle of the options in terms of proposed force main lengths. Force main must be capable of maintaining a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second as well. The force main must have a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second when pumps of a lift station are working together. The proposed force main will be located in three locations: (1) running in an east/west direction on SE Jones Road from the lift station, (2) running in an east/west direction on SE 135th Street from the lift station, and (3) running generally east/west Figure 10: Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in on SE 141�` Street (see Option B Figure 11, Sanitary Sewer Tr Option B). 11,500 A 7,200 I. 7.600 A The estimated pipe costs for o.„0„ 4400 1,800I.

Having three lift stations increases the venerability of the system and increases the operation and maintenance costs. For example, the operation and maintenance costs for all three lift stations will be $83,300 a year (see Table 4-3, Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). The lift station at SE Jones Road is estimated to have a peak hour quantity of 200 gpm and an average quantity of 60 gpm. The beginning elevation of the force main is 88 feet and ends at 100 feet. The length of force main required for this section is approximately 720 feet. This station contains two pumps each with a capacity of 200 gpm and is estimated to run 2,630 hours per year.

This station moves sewage from a beginning elevation of 370 feet to 375 feet. The force main required for this lift station is an estimated 400 feet of 4-inch PVC. Two pumps will be housed at this station, each with a capacity of 40 gpm. This station is expected to run 2,190 hours per year. The SE 141 st Street station has a significantly larger peak and average quantities than the other two lift stations because it will serve a larger area. The peak quantity for this station is estimated to be 2,600 gpm, and the average quantity will be 900 gpm. Due to the high peak quantity estimates, a third pump has been added to this station. All three pumps must accommodate this peak quantity estimate individually. These pumps will move sewage from an elevation of 310 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of the force main required for this station is 7,150 feet. OPTION C Description Option C will provide sanitary sewer service to the entire East Maplewood study area by adding a total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer line and 13,400 feet of force main to the current system. This addition will create a 32% increase in gravity sewer for the City. This option serves the same four proposed sewage basins as described above with Basin 4 as the largest, containing 717 acres (see Figure 13, Sanitary Sewer Option C). All four basins combined cover an area of 2,586 acres. This option features the same three lift stations described in Option B, one located at the intersection of SE Jones Road and 149th Avenue SE, the second at SE 135th Street, a third at the end of SE 141 st Street, and a new station added at 154th Place SE. This lift station will house three pumps,thus adding a total of 10 pumps to the current system.

Pipe Lengths/Type The topography of the area generally slopes from the northeast to the southwest. For this reason, a gravity sewer system will be used to meet the peak quantity demands of the East Maplewood area. Two types of pipes will be used, gravity sewer and force main. Gravity sewer, as the name implies, uses gravity to transport sewage. Force mains are connected to lift stations which pump sewage uphill. Option C contains sewer and force mains with various diameters from 4-inch to 24-inch pipes. As seen in Figure 12 (Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option C), 8- inch gravity sewer is the predominant diameter used in this option with 202,300 feet estimated. This option requires a total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer. The smallest allowable diameter for gravity sewers is 8 inches. The sewer must maintain a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second when flowing half full. PVC will be used for sewer lines in this option, which allows for long laying lengths, which helps reduce joints in the system,ultimately reducing infiltration. This option needs a total of 13,400 feet of force main. Option C contains the second largest amount of proposed force main length of all the options. Force main must be capable of maintaining a minimum velocity of 2 feet per second as well. The force main must have a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second when pumps of a lift station are working together. The proposed force main will be located in four locations: 1. running in an east/west direction on SE Jones Road from the lift station, 2. running in an east/west direction on SE 135th Street from the lift station, 3. running generally east/west on SE 141st Street, and 4. running generally to the northwest on 154th Place SE (See Figure 13, Sanitary Sewer Option C). The estimated pipe costs for Figure 12: Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option C, $37,304,000, is Option C among the highest of the 6,000 R 11,100 d options. This cost estimate 10u00 & Q includes unit costs for each 7,600R size pipe including side '''�, a sewer, materials, manholes, e..u0a. trenching, backfill, paving, 1.10D and traffic control costs. Lift Stations Option C contains four proposed lift stations, the SE Jones Road station, the SE 202,300Q. 13 5t' Street station, the SE ©r(force)■r❑r(dry)010 ■12'■12*([ace)01?016'in 1r 021'1324H 141 st Street, and a new station located on 154`h Place SE. Having four lift stations increases the venerability of the system and increases the operation and maintenance costs. For example, the operation and maintenance East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 31 c�1 Y o Chapter Three cos`s for the four lift stations in this option will be $87,300 a year (see Table 4-3, Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). The lift station at SE Jones Road is estimated to have a peak hour quantity of 200 gpm and an average quantity of 60 gpm. The beginning elevation of the force main is 88 feet and ends at 100 feet. The length of force main required for this section is approximately 720 feet. This station contains two pumps each with a capacity of 200 gpm. This station is estimated to run 2,630 hours per year. The SE 135 h Street station has a smaller capacity that the Jones Road station. It is designed to handle a peak hour quantity of 40 gpm and an average quantity of 10 gpm. This station moves sewage from a beginning elevation of 370 feet to 375 feet. The force main required for this lift station is an estimated 400 feet of 4-inch PVC. Two pumps will be housed at this station, each with a capacity of 40 gpm. This station is expected to run 2,190 hours per year. The SE 141 st Street station has significantly larger peak and average quantities than the other two lift stations because it will serve a larger area. The peak quantity for this station is estimated to be 2,600 gpm, and the average quantity will be 900 gpm. Due to the high peak quantity estimates, a third pump has been added to this station. All three pumps must accommodate this peak quantity estimate in iividually. These pumps will move sewage from an elevation of 310 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of the force main required for this station is 7,150 feet. The 154th Place lift station has the largest peak and average quantities of the four lift stations described in this option. The peak quantity for this station is 3,400 gpm, and the average quantity is 1200 gpm. This station will house three pumps to accommodate the large peak quantities pumping sewage from a beginning elevation of 193 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of the force mair required to do this is 9,030 feet. OPTION D Description Option D provides sanitary sewer service to the entire East Maplewood study area by adding a total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer line and 4,700 feet of force main to the current system. This addition will create a 32% increase in gravity sewer for the City. This option serves the same four proposed sewage basins as described above. However, a new configuration of these basins is introduced in this option. Basin 4 is no longer the largest basin. In this option, Basin 3 is made the domi cant sewage basin, and Basin 2 is significantly reduced (see Figure 15, Sanitary Sewer Option 1)). All four basins combined still cover an area of 2,586 acres. This option features the same three lift stations described in Option B, one located at the intersect on of SE Jones Road and 149th Avenue SE, one on SE 135 Street, and a third at the end of SE 141 St Street. A new lift station is introduced also on SE 135th Street in the northeast corner of the IV aplewood study area. This lift station will house two pumps because of its small service area. A total of 8 pumps will be added to the current system in this option.

This area is comprised entirely by residential units. The estimated population and average quantity will remain the same as in Options A•C. The average quantity is based on the domestic sewage flow average being 125 gpd per person The peak factor for this area is still 1.4, but the peak quantity will change to 8,878,410 gpd. Infiltration and inflow is estimated to be 3,361,800 gpd, resulting in a total peak day quantity of 12,240,210 gpd for the East Maplewood area. The sewer system proposed in Option D meets these peak quantity requirements (see Figure 6, Comparison of Peak Flows Assigned to Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D & E). Pipe Lengths/Type The topography of the area generally slopes from the northeast to the southwest. For this reason, a gravity sewer system will be used to meet the peak quantity demands of the East Maplewood area. Option D contains sewer and force mains with various diameters from 4-inch to 24-inch pipes. As seen in Figure 14 (Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option D), 8-inch gravity sewer is the predominant diameter used in this option with 201,100 feet estimated.

The proposed force "00 main is located in four F, --.�-�— 3 la 600 fl locations: (1) running in an east/west direction on SE Jones Road from the lift station, (2) running in an east/west direction on SE 135th Street in the west side 201,100ft of the study area, (3) running generally east/west on SE 04•(foce)■6-(fora)■r os-(thy)Oto-sir OIS■ir 021'11124-I 141s` Street, and (4) running west on SE 135t1i Street in the northeast corner of the study area (see Figure 15, Sanitary Sewer Option D). East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 34 •1Y • Chapter Three 4, l The estimated pipe costs for Option D are the second lowest between the options, due to the small amount of force main needed. The estimated pipe costs are $36,573,000. This cost estimate includes unit costs for each size pipe including side sewer, materials, manholes, trenching, backfill, paving, and traffic control costs. Lift Stations Option D contains four proposed lift stations, the SE Jones Road station, the SE 135th Street station, the SE 141" Street, and a new station located on SE 135th Street in the northeast corner of the Maplewood Study area as well. Having four lift stations maintains the same level of venerability of the system as compared to Option C. The operating and maintenance costs will remain similar to Option C. For example, the operation and maintenance costs for the four lift stations in this option will be $86,900 a year (see Table 4-3, Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). The lift station at SE Jones Road is estimated to have a peak hour quantity of 200 gpm and an average quantity of 60 gpm. The beginning elevation of the force main is 88 feet and ends at 100 feet. The length of force main required for this section is approximately 720 feet. This station contains two pumps each with a capacity of 200 gpm and is estimated to run 2,630 hours per year. The SE 135th Street station has a smaller capacity that the Jones Road station. It is designed to handle a peak hour quantity of 40 gpm and will have an average quantity of 10 gpm. This station moves sewage from a beginning elevation of 370 feet to 375 feet. The force main required for this lift station is an estimated 400 feet of 4-inch PVC. Two pumps will be housed at this station, each with a capacity of 40 gpm. This station is expected to run 2,190 hours per year. The SE l 41 n Street station has significantly larger peak and average quantities than the other two lift stations because it will serve a larger area. The peak quantity for this station is estimated to be 2,600 gpm, and the average quantity is 900 gpm. Due to the high peak quantity estimates, a third pump has been added to this station. All three pumps must accommodate this peak quantity estimate individually. These pumps move sewage from an elevation of 310 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of force main required for this station is 7,150 feet. The second lift station located on SE 135th Street has similar peak and average quantity rates as the SE 141 n Street lift station. This lift station has an approximate peak quantity rate of 500 gpm, and an average quantity rate of 150 gpm. This station contains two pumps, as it is below the recommended peak rate quantity required for three or more pumps (Criteria for Sewage Works Design, DOE, Section 3.12). The pumps at this station move sewage from a beginning elevation of 434 feet to an elevation of 475 feet. The estimated length of force main required for this lift station is 815 feet. This station is expected to run 2,630 hours per year. OPTION E Description The final option, Option E, provides sanitary sewer service to the entire East Maplewood study area by adding a total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer line and 14,200 feet of force main to the East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 35 o Chapter Three current system. This addition will create a 32% increase in gravity sewer for the City. Option E serves the same four proposed sewage basins as described above in Option D. This option uses the same layout of basins as in Option D. In Option E, Basin 3 remains the dominant sewage basin, and Basin 2 is still a reduced size (see Figure 17, Sanitary Sewer Option E). All four basins combined still cover an area of 2,586 acres. Option E features the same four lift stations described in Option D, (1) at SE Jones Road and 149th Avenue SE, (2) on SE 135th Street, (3) at the end of SE 141° Street, (4) on SE 135th Street, but in the northeast corner of the Maplewood study area, and (5) the reintroduction of the same lift station on 154th Place SE. This option represents the largest of all the options, featuring five lift stations, and 11 pumps. Wastewater Quantity Option E serves the same basin configuration as in Option D including Basin 1 containing 530 acres, Basin 2 containing only 514 acres, Basin 3 containing 1,158 acres, and Basin 4 containing 746 acres. This area is comprised entirely by residential units. The estimated population and average quantity remain the same as in Options A through C. The average quantity is based on the domestic sewage quantity average being 125 gpd per person. The peak factor for this area is 1.4, and the peak quantity will remain 8,878,410 gpd. Infiltration and inflow is estimated to be 3,361,800 gpd, resulting in a total peak day quantity of 12,240,210 gpd for the East Maplewood area. The sewer system proposed in Option E will meet these peak quantity requirements (see Figure 6, Comparison of Peak Flows Assigned to Each Basin for Options A, B, & C versus Options D & E). Pipe Lengths/Type Option E contains sewer and force mains with various diameters from 4-inch to 24-inch pipes. As seen in Figure 16 (Length of Each Size Sewer Pipe Used in Option E), 8-inch gravity sewer is the predominant diameter used in this option with 201,100 feet estimated. A total of 255,000 feet of gravity sewer will be required for this option. The smallest allowable diameter for gravity sewers is 8 inches. The sewer must maintain a minimum velocity when flowing half-full of 2 feet per second. PVC will be used for sewer lines in this option allowing for long-laying lengths,which helps reduce joints in the system, ultimately reducing infiltration.

Option E contains 13,400 the largest amount of 10,200 ft proposed force main length 9,000 ft of all the options. The 4,000& io0 a proposed force main will be kW°IL located in five locations: (1) running in an east/west direction on SE Jones Road from the lift station, (2) running in an east/west direction on SE 135th Street in the west side of the study 201,100 R. area, (3) running generally east/west on SE 140 Street, ©4'(ue)IOW(iince)or or(dry)o10'•1r 015'016•■ir 021"824' (4) running west on SE 135th Street in the northeast corner of the study area, and running generally to the northwest on 154th Place SE (see Figure 17,Sanitary Sewer Option E). The estimated pipe costs for Option E are the highest among the options due to the large amount of force main needed. The estimated pipe costs are $37,323,000. This cost estimate includes unit costs for each size pipe including side sewer, materials, manholes, trenching, backfill, paving, and traffic control costs. Lift Stations Option E contains five proposed lift stations: the SE Jones Road station, the SE 135th Street station, the SE 140 Street, on SE 135th Street in the northeast corner of the Maplewood Study area, and the 154th Place SE station again. Having five lift stations makes this the most venerable sewer system proposal. The operating and maintenance costs will be the highest of all the options. For example, the operation and maintenance costs for the four lift stations in this option will be $91,000 a year(see Table 4-3,Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). The lift station at SE Jones Road is estimated to have a peak hour quantity of 200 gpm and an average quantity of 60 gpm. The beginning elevation of the force main is 88 feet and ends at 100 feet. The length of force main required for this section is approximately 720 feet. This station contains two pumps each with a capacity of 200 gpm and is estimated to run 2,630 hours per year. The SE 135th Street station has a smaller capacity than the Jones Road station. It is designed to handle a peak hour quantity of 40 gpm and have an average quantity of 10 gpm. This station moves sewage from a beginning elevation of 370 feet to 375 feet. The force main required for this lift station is an estimated 400 feet of 4-inch PVC. Two pumps will also be housed at this station, each with a capacity of 40 gpm. This station is expected to run 2,190 hours per year. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 38 V TY o, Chapter Three • -]'he SE 141 st Street station has significantly larger peak and average quantities than the other two lift stations because it will serve a larger area. The peak quantity for this station is estimated .o be 2,600 gpm, and the average quantity will be 900 gpm. Due to the high peak quantity e itimates, a third pump has been added to this station. All three pumps must accommodate this peak quantity estimate individually. These pumps move sewage from an elevation c f 310 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of force main required for this station is 7,150 feet. The second lift station located on SE 135th Street has similar peak and average quantity rates as the SE 141st Street lift station. This lift station has an approximate peak quantity rate of 500 gpm, and an averagf quantity rate of 150 gpm. This station contains two pumps, as it is below the recommended peak rate quantity required for three or more pumps (Criteria for Sewage Works Design, DOE, Section 3.12). The pumps at this station move sewage from a beginning elevation of 434 feel to an elevation of 475 feet. The estimated length of force main required for this lift station is 815 feet and the station is expected to run 2,630 hours per year. The 154th Place lift station has the largest peak and average quantities of the five lift stations described in this option. The peak quantity for this station is 5,200 gpm, and the average quantity will be 2,C 00 gpm. This station houses three pumps to accommodate the large peak quantities. The pump will pump sewage from a beginning elevation of 193 feet to 395 feet. The estimated length of tl Le force main required to do this is 9,030 feet. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 39 Chapter Four COST COMPARISON INTRODUCTION This chapter evaluates the costs of the East Maplewood Collection options according to the financial criteria presented in Chapter 2. Two types of costs — 1) capital and 2) operation and maintenance will be discussed in this chapter. Costs for each option are discussed separately, then a cost comparison follows. The general cost discussions presented at the end of this chapter apply to all five options. Applying common unit cost factors to each element of the options generated costs for each of the options. For instance, a standard cost for each foot pipe was multiplied by the estimated number of feet of that pipe for a particular option. Costs were varied by size (e.g. larger pipes cost more per foot than smaller; or larger lift stations cost more per unit than smaller) and other relevant factors. Other relevant cost factors may include depth (it costs more to install a deep pipe than a shallow or e) or whether a line is a force main or a gravity line. All capital costs have been updated to the March 1997 ENR cost index. Operation and maintenance costs also derive from the application of constants to the variable for each option. Constants considered in the cost calculations detailed below include such things as the cost of electricity and, staffing hourly costs. The units of operation for each of the options to produce pr)jected operation and maintenance costs multiplied these factors. EXPLA NATION OF COSTS FOR EACH OPTION Option A Capital Costs The capital costs for this option is estimated to be $36,645,000. This cost can be broken into three parts: gravity line, $36,482,000; force main, $55,000; and lift station costs, $108,000. Capital costs for tile sewer lines include materials, trenching, backfill, paving, side sewers, and traffic control. Tl to Appendix includes tables of cost factors used in calculating capital costs. Operation and Maintenance Costs The total annual operating and maintenance (0 & M) costs for Option A is $ 79,910. This figure includes the estimated $310 power costs for the lift stations, and total number of man-hours required to maintain and operate the system. Operating costs for the lift stations are reached by multiplying the annual running time by the cost per kilowatt-hour($.05/kW*hr). East Maplewooc Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering,Inc. 10/03/97 Page 40 Chapter Four .Q. Work that falls under the maintenance category includes: • lift station, sewage pump, and motor maintenance; • checking the wet wells, • cutting roots, and • grease removal. Work that can be categorized under operating hours includes: • inspections, • work logs, • staff meetings, and • cleaning. The estimated man-hours required to operate and maintain Option A is 2,492. The cost per man- hour is estimated to be $23.91. The lift station life is approximately 25 years, so the 0 & M costs are multiplied by 25 years to find the overall 0&M costs for this option. Figure 18 (Cost Figure 18: Cost Breakdown of Option A Breakdown of Option A) shows the costs of Option A s2.29,000 s9,I91,000 and shows them in present value. An interest rate of $3,015.000 5.7% is used with an inflation rate of 3.2%. The 52.320000 real rate of interest used was 2.4%.

This cost can be broken into the same three parts as in Option A: gravity line, force main, and lift station costs. The cost for the gravity line construction of this option is $36,363,000 which is slightly less than in Option A. However, the cost for the force main is $559,000, more than ten times the cost in Option A. Finally, the capital cost for the three lift stations is $2,123,000. Capital costs for the sewer lines include materials, trenching, backfill,paving, side sewers, and traffic control.

COST COMPARISON FOR ALL THE OPTIONS Capital Costs Evaluation of capital costs considers total cost (including construction costs), life cycle cost, present value, and cost per ERU. These evaluations were performed for comparable time frames for each option. The main capital cost associated with all five options is the pipe costs. As much as 70% of the total cost is a result of these pipe costs. As can be seen in Figure 23, (Total Pipe Costs for Options A-E), Option B is the least expensive, in terms of pipe costs, of these three options. Option B requires less 18" gravity pipe than does Figure 23: Total Pipe Costs for Options A-E Option A. It also requires less force main than does irt Option C.

The approximate annual running time and amount of power needed to run the pumps is multiplied to determine the kW/hr for each lift station. This number is 'hen multiplied by $.05 to determine the annual power costs for the lift stations. Option A has the lowest annual power costs because it only needs to supply power for two small lift East Maplewooc Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering 10/03/97 Page 47 _t'Y o Chapter Four k„.(:).t stations. Option E has the highest annual power costs due to the power needed to run four small and one large lift station.

Option A was estimated to need a total of 2,492 man-hours per year for operation and maintenance (0 & M). An estimated 2,973 man-hours per year would be needed to operate and maintain Option E. Again, this is due to the fact that Option A would only have two lift stations to maintain, whereas Option E would have five. This translates into Option A having a total 0 & M cost of$79,000 and Option E a total of$91,000. These two options are singled out because they represent the least and most expensive annual 0 & M costs (see Table 4-3, Total Staff Time and Cost Estimates for Options A-E). All the costs described above are then used to determine a total option cost. This cost needs to be projected over the Table 4-4: Comparison of Costs and Present Value for Options A-E life cycle of the Option A Option B Option C Option D Option E sewer system and Annual Power $310 S22,590 $87,940 $8,860 $92,650 then be converted Annual Staff Ti ne $79,600 $83,300 $87,300 $86,900 $91,000 into present Total Annual C st $79,910 $105,890 $175,240 $95,760 $183,650 dollars.

East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RI-I2 Engineering,Inc. 10/06/97 Page B-1 Glossary of Terms Building Sewer- In plumbing, the extension from the building drain to the public sewer or other place of disposal. Also called house connection, private side sewer, or lateral. Capacity Problems- When flow rates exceed what the facility is designed to convey. Collector Sewer- A sewer that discharges into a trunk or interceptor sewer and has no other common sewer tributary to it, only building or lateral sewers. Combined Sewer- A sewer intended to receive both wastewater and storm or surface water. Domestic Sewage- Residential, business, commercial, and industrial sewage. Gravity Sewer Capacity- The maximum capacity for a gravity sewer is the volume of flow that can be carried in a sewer at a depth to diameter ratio of 0.75 which is then used in the Manning's equation. Infiltration- Infiltration is the entrance of groundwater into the sanitary sewer system through cracks, pores, breaks, and defective joints in the sewer piping network. Inflow- Inflow refers to direct flow of stormwater into sanitary sewer systems through hookups from stormwater collection facilities and illegal connections. Interceptor Sewer- A sewer that receives flow from a number of collector or trunk sewers, or force mains and conveys such wastewater to a point for treatment or disposal. Lift Station- A sewage pumping facility which consists of a wet well for collecting wastewater; mechanical equipment such as pumps, valves, and piping; electrical and control equipment; and a force main. Lift Station Capacity- The maximum capacity for a lift station is equal to the peak, wet weather flow which the largest pump within the lift station has been designed to convey. Main or Trunk Sewer- The principal sewer to which collector sewers are tributary; sewer that receives many collector branches and serves a subbasin. Manning Equation- The Manning equation is used to design and analyze wastewater flow characteristics of sanitary sewers. East Maplewood Sewer Collection Report RH2 Engineering Inc. 10/06/97 Page G-1 rvY O Glossary of Terms Sanitary Sewer- A gravity sewer that carries liquid and waterborne wastes from residences, commercial buildings, industrial plants, and institutions, together with minor quantities of ground, storm, and surface waters that are not admitted intentionally. Sewage- See wastewater. Side Sewer- See building sewer. Storm Sewer- A sewer that carries stormwater and surface water, street wash and other wash waters, or drainage, but excludes domestic wastewater and industrial wastes. Also called storm drain. Wastewater- The spent or used water of a community or industry which contains dissolved and suspended contaminants which cannot be discharged directly to a lake, stream, or river. Wastewater Collection System- The delivery of wastewater from its origin to place of treatment; also includes all accessory facilities such as collectors, trunk and interceptor lines, force mains, lift stations, treatment plants and the like.
