SEPA Environmental checklist (WAC 197-11-960) July 2016 Page 1 of 16
SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
Purpose of checklist:
Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization
or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental
impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal.
Instructions for applicants:
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please
answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult
with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use “not applicable” or
"does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown.
You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate
answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision-
making process.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of
time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal
or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your
answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant
adverse impact.
Instructions for Lead Agencies:
Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to
evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse
impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to
make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is
responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents.
Use of checklist for nonproject proposals:
For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable
parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please
completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or
site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead
agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements –that do not
contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal.

The approximate dimensions of the proposed new building are 13 feet high by 12 feet wide by
30 feet long (Sheets 2, 3 and 4). The building will be pre-manufactured, not occupied, and will
weigh approximately 47,000 pounds. The building will not have water or sanitary sewer
connections, although city water and the city sewer system serve the other buildings on site. A
new roof drain will discharge to the gravel area along the eastern site boundary or to the existing
stormwater system on site. The site currently is (and will be) served with electricity from the on-
site Puget Sound Energy (PSE) Substation. Very minor grading of the existing gravel surface
will be completed to place an approximately 15-foot by 33-foot concrete slab for placement of
the new Switchgear Building. Additionally, some conduit trench excavation (approximately 30-
feet (l) by 1-foot (w) by 3-feet (d); approximately 3 cubic yards excavated soil) will be completed

150-feet (l) by 3-feet (w) by 3-feet (d); approximately 50 cubic yards), and a low voltage service
to the on-site programmable control system. The building will be for use in a 4,160 volt three-
phase, three-wire 60 Hertz system. All inside wiring within the switchgear will conform to the
latest version of the NEC. The building manufacturer shall obtain the Washington State
Department of Labor and Industries approval (Gold Seal) and affix the approval label before the
building leaves the factory. The entire switchgear equipment will be UL-Certified, designed,
tested and assembled in accordance with the latest applicable standards.

volt, three-phase, three-wire 60 Hertz system. Approximately 6- to 8-inches of imported
gravel (about 8 cubic yards) may be placed as a base for the concrete pad for the building.
Material excavated from the electrical utility trenches will be temporarily stockpiled on site
and reused as backfill in the excavations.

Erosion could occur if heavy rains occur during construction.
g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project
construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)?

include installation of a 15 ft by 33 ft (495 sq. ft) gravel pad to support a 12 ft by 30 ft (360 sq.
ft.) building within 529,649 sq. ft. of existing impervious surfaces. The eastern half of the site,
where the proposed Switchgear Building will be situated, currently is covered in asphalt
concrete or crushed rock. All existing trees and landscaping within the City of Renton right-
of-way on the east side of the site will be protected and remain in-place during the project.
h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any:
Measures to reduce and control erosion include using straw wattles, maintain as much of the
existing gravel and asphalt surface as possible, cover soil stockpiles with plastic sheeting if
inclement weather is forecasted, and stabilize any bare soils with gravel and/or asphalt and/or
concrete as soon as excavations and construction are complete.
2. Air [help]
