PERIMETER ROAD PRE 12-014 NOTE: The applicant is cautioned that information contained in this summary is preliminary and non- binding and may be subject to modification and/or concurrence by official city decision-makers. Review comments may also need to be revised based on site planning and other design changes required by City staff or made by the applicant. I have completed a preliminary review for the Ace Aviation proposal to expand their existing multi- purpose aircraft hanger & corporate center multi-story building, located in Sect. 7 Twp. 23N, Rng 5 E. The following comments are based on the pre-application submittal made to the City of Renton by the applicant. Water This site is located in the City of Renton water service area. The site is not located in the Aquifer Protection Zone. There is an existing 8-inch DI water main and a 12-inch DI water main located in the vicinity. See City of Renton drawing number W 0455 and W 0804 and W 2087. The site is located in the 196 water pressure zone. Per the City of Renton Fire Marshal, the preliminary fire flow requirement is 3,750 gpm based on a fully fire sprinklered building including all existing areas that are retained. The maximum available capacity from the existing city water system in vicinity of the development site is 2,500 gpm from the existing 8-inch and 12-inch water mains in E. Perimeter Road, and from the existing 8-inch water main along the northwesterly side of the existing building. The static water pressure is approximately 68 psi at finished grade elevation 30 feet. The existing system cannot deliver the preliminary required fire flow for the redevelopment project. The City of Renton Water Utility has provided the following information on what is required to serve the proposed project: 1. In order to increase the flow capacity of the above existing 12-inch water line in E. Perimeter Rd. to deliver the required fire flow, a section of approximately 120 feet of the existing 8-inch water main in the roadway must be replaced with a larger 12-inch pipe and be connected to the existing 12-inch water line in Logan Ave N.

Existing fire hydrants need to be brought up to current code if not existing. 3. There is an existing 8-inch backflow prevention assembly (DDCVA) for the existing fire sprinkler system.

Sanitary Sewer • There is an existing 24” sanitary sewer main in the vicinity of this project proposal site. • The project will need to show the location of the existing sidesewer connection from the buildings to the main. • The project needs to show the location of the oil separator.
