AGENDA ITEM #7. c) DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT M E M O R A N D U M DATE:December 6, 2021 TO:Randy Corman, Council President Members of Renton City Council VIA:Armondo Pavone, Mayor FROM:C.E. “Chip” Vincent, CED Administrator x6588 STAFF CONTACT:Alex Morganroth, Senior Planner x7219 SUBJECT:Fee Waiver Request – Sunset Gardens Multi- family ISSUE: Should the City waive certain development and impact fees for the Sunset Gardens project? RECOMMENDATION: Approve a 100 percent waiver of the eligible development fees and 80 percent of the transportation, parks, and fire impact mitigation fees as provided in Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-1-210C.4 for the Sunset Gardens development. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: The Renton Housing Authority has requested a waiver of development and impact mitigation fees for the Sunset Gardens project. The project includes 76 new residential multi-family (flats) units at 2900 NE 10th St. The subject site is 1.28 acres in size and is located within the Center Village (CV) zoning designation. The subject waiver was applied for close to submittal of the civil construction permit application. Therefore, a portion of the fees have already been paid and will need to be refunded should the waiver be approved. AGENDA ITEM #7. c) The area of the site where the new units are proposed is owned by RHA and is currently developed with a one-story office building occupied by RHA staff. All of the proposed dwelling units would be affordable as defined by the Renton Municipal Code. The housing authority would own and continue to manage the Sunset Gardens apartments following construction and occupancy. The “Waived Fees – Affordable Rental-Occupied Housing Incentive,” RMC 4-1-210C is intended to encourage new affordable rental housing in the City by waiving certain development and mitigation fees for eligible affordable rental housing projects. As such, the Renton Housing Authority has requested that the following permit fees, impact fees, and system development charges be waived for the Sunset Gardens development project: •Building permit and plan review fees; •Public Works plan and inspection fees; •Transportation and Parks impact mitigation fees; •Fire impact fees; o Per State Law, 80 percent of the transportation, parks, and fire impact mitigation fees would be waived and 20 percent of the fees would be paid by the applicant. •Civil plan review and inspection fees; •Water, Surface Water, and Wastewater system development charges; and •Technology surcharge fees The estimated total fees requested to be waived for the Sunset Gardens project is $984,130. If approved, these waived fees would represent an estimated savings of approximately $13,000 per multi-family unit. Per RMC 4-1-210C.3, to qualify for a fee waiver, projects must demonstrate compliance with the following criteria: include a minimum of thirty (30) units in the CD zone; designate and rent one hundred percent (100%) of the housing units as AGENDA ITEM #7. c) affordable housing for households at or below sixty percent (60%) of median income; remain affordable for a minimum of thirty (30) years; and the applicant/owner shall demonstrate experience and/or ability to provide affordable housing. The project complies with all eligibility criteria for the affordable rental housing incentive. In addition, the applicant, Renton Housing Authority, has previously developed a significant number of affordable housing projects in Renton and has a prevent track record of providing high quality, functional residential communities. Per RMC 4-1-210C.6, if the fee waiver is approved by City Council, the applicant would be required to submit a restrictive covenant for the property for review and approval by the Community and Economic Development Administrator. The restrictive covenant is required to ensure the dwelling units are maintained as affordable for a minimum of 30-years. The restrictive covenant must be executed and recorded at the applicant’s expense prior to the issuance of the building permit, unless otherwise approved by City Council. Staff is recommending deferring the execution and recording of the restrictive covenant documents to prior to the issuance of Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) for the building in order to expedite permit review and issuance. Per RMC 4-1-210C.7, if the fee waiver is approved by City Council, the applicant is required to enter into a contract with the City that is approved by City Council regarding the terms and conditions of the project as it relates to the affordable rental housing incentive. As the contract would be executed and recorded later in the development process and prior to TCO similar to the above- referenced restrictive covenant, staff recommends the City Council authorize the Mayor to enter into the contract with the applicant to effectuate the fee waiver. CONCLUSION: AGENDA ITEM #7. c) The Sunset Gardens project, a new 76-unit affordable rental housing development, meets the eligibility criteria for the waived fees as identified in RMC 4-1-210C.3. Authorizing the Mayor to enter into the contract with the applicant to effectuate the fee waiver will assist in providing new affordable rental housing and supports the City’s ongoing redevelopment efforts in the Sunset Area. Deferring the execution and recording of the restrictive covenant documents to prior to the issuance of Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) for the building will expedite permit review and issuance.

AGENDA ITEM #7. d) DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT M E M O R A N D U M DATE:December 6, 2021 TO:Randy Corman, Council President Members of Renton City Council VIA:Armondo Pavone, Mayor FROM:C.E. “Chip” Vincent, CED Administrator x6588 STAFF CONTACT:Alex Morganroth, Senior Planner x7219 SUBJECT:Fee Waiver Request – Watershed Apartments ISSUE: Should the City waive certain development and impact fees for the Watershed Apartments project? RECOMMENDATION: Approve a 100 percent waiver of the eligible development fees and 80 percent of the transportation, parks, and fire impact fees as provided in Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-1- 210C.4 for the Watershed Apartments development. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: GMD Development has requested a waiver of development and impact fees for the Watershed Apartments project. The project includes 145 new residential multi-family (flats) units at 615 and 617 Williams Ave S. The subject site is 1.38 acres in size and is located within the Center Downtown (CD) and Residential-14 du/ac (R-14) zoning designations. The subject fee waiver was requested shortly before the civil construction permit application was submitted to the City. Therefore, a portion of the fees requested to be waived have already been AGENDA ITEM #7. d) paid and will need to be refunded should the waiver be approved. The area of the site where the new units are proposed is owned by GMD Development and is currently developed with a four-plex and standalone billboard sign. All of the proposed dwelling units would be affordable as defined by the Renton Municipal Code. GMD Development would own and continue to manage the Watershed Apartments following construction and occupancy. The “Waived Fees – Affordable Rental-Occupied Housing Incentive,” RMC 4-1-210C is intended to encourage new affordable rental housing in the City by waiving certain development and mitigation fees for eligible affordable rental housing projects. As such, GMD Development has requested that the following permit fees, impact fees, and system development charges be waived for the Watershed Apartments project: •Building permit and plan review fees; •Public Works plan and inspection fees; •Transportation and Parks impact mitigation fees; •Fire impact mitigation fees; o Per State Law, 80 percent of the transportation, parks, and fire impact fees would be waived and 20 percent of the fees would be paid by the applicant. •Civil plan review and inspection fees; •Water, Surface Water, and Wastewater system development charges; and •Technology surcharge fees Per RMC 4-1-210C.4, only fees for up to one hundred (100) dwelling units may be waived. Therefore, the estimated fee waiver was calculated on a proportional basis so as to only count fees applicable to the first one hundred (100) dwelling units. Based on a total of one hundred (100) dwelling units, the estimated total fees requested to be waived for the Watershed Apartments AGENDA ITEM #7. d) project is $1,264,150. If approved, these waived fees would represent an estimated savings of $8,718 per multi-family unit, based on a total of 145 units. Per RMC 4-1-210C.3, to qualify for a fee waiver, projects must demonstrate compliance with the following criteria: include a minimum of thirty (30) units in the CD zone; designate and rent one hundred percent (100%) of the housing units as affordable housing for households at or below sixty percent (60%) of median income; remain affordable for a minimum of thirty (30) years; and the applicant/owner shall demonstrate experience and/or ability to provide affordable housing. The project complies with all eligibility criteria for the affordable rental housing incentive. In addition, the applicant, GMD Development, has previously developed affordable rental housing in many other Seattle area communities, including Renton, and has a track record of providing high quality, functional residential communities. Per RMC 4-1-210C.6, if the fee waiver is approved by City Council, the applicant would be required to submit a restrictive covenant for the property for review and approval by the Community and Economic Development Administrator. The restrictive covenant is required to ensure the dwelling units are maintained as affordable for a minimum of 30years. The restrictive covenant must be executed and recorded at the applicant’s expense prior to the issuance of the building permit, unless otherwise approved by City Council. Staff is recommending deferring the execution and recording of the restrictive covenant documents to prior to the issuance of Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) for the first building in order to expedite permit review and issuance. Per RMC 4-1-210C.7, if the fee waiver is approved by City Council, the applicant is required to enter into a contract with the City that is approved by City Council regarding the terms and conditions of the project as it relates to the affordable rental AGENDA ITEM #7. d) housing incentive. As the contract would be executed and recorded later in the development process and prior to TCO similar to the above- referenced restrictive covenant, staff recommends the City Council to authorize the Mayor to enter into the contract with the applicant to effectuate the fee waiver. CONCLUSION: The Watershed Apartments project, a new 145-unit affordable rental housing development, meets the eligibility criteria for the waived fees as identified in RMC 4-1-210C.3. Authorizing the Mayor to enter into the contract with the applicant to effectuate the fee waiver will assist in providing new affordable rental housing and will support the City’s ongoing efforts to increase residential density in the S Grady Way corridor and downtown area. Deferring the execution and recording of the restrictive covenant documents prior to the issuance of Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) for the building will expedite permit review and issuance.

SUMMARY OF ACTION: The City provides medical coverage through a self-funded plan, which means that the City pays for claims out of the Renton Employee Healthcare Plan fund by utilizing a third-party administrator to process claims. To preserve the fiscal stability of the plan, it is necessary to carry excess loss (stop loss) insurance to protect the City from the cost of high-dollar claims. The City bids this coverage each year. Due to insurance market conditions, the cost has increased 50% from last year, to $838,000 for 2022. This coverage carries an individual deductible amount of $250,000, which will remain unchanged from last year. EXHIBITS: A.

Here are some things we consider when determining the best possible price for your plan: Plan design: what services are covered; how much are employee copays, coinsurance, deductibles and/or premiums; are there wellness or other value-add programs included? Group population: how many people are covered; where do members live and/or receive care; what are the demographics of the group? Managed care networks: are provider and hospital networks helping to lower plan risk; what is the network usage rate? Claims experience: what is the claims experience history; how many claims, to date, are over the Specific deductible; how many are expected before the end of the plan year? Medical trend: how much are health care costs projected to increase? Share of risk: what is your deductible threshold and risk tolerance; how will rising medical trend impact your plan and the accompanying stop loss policy? Lowering premium renewal increases through deductible leveraging Annual renewal is an opportunity to review how your plan performed over the past year, and to evaluate whether your current Specific deductible is still appropriate. This is especially true when rising medical costs are paired with higher than expected claims, as this combination typically means a rate adjustment is needed for the new plan year. Leveraged trend or, as applied, deductible leveraging, can help mitigate higher renewal rates by sharing the impact of medical trend between the health plan and Symetra stop loss via a higher Specific deductible. Here’s how it works: For illustrative purposes only. With deductible leveraging, you’re trading lower premiums for a higher Specific deductible due to medical trend increases. It can be an effective way to help control the impact of rising costs on your plan. If you’re interested in deductible leveraging for your renewal, talk with your Symetra stop loss professional. Based on Symetra renewal data from August 1, 2015 to July 1, 2020. What does a typical Symetra renewal look like?

EXHIBITS: A. Agreement STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve an interagency agreement with the Washington Traffic Safety Commission to receive up to $9,900 in grant funds to conduct multi-jurisdictional, high visibility enforcement traffic safety emphasis patrols in support of Target Zero priorities of reducing traffic related deaths and serious injuries. AGENDA ITEM #7. o) INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE Washington Traffic Safety Commission AND _________________________________ THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into by and between the Washington Traffic Safety Commission, hereinafter referred to as “WTSC,” and _________________________________, hereinafter referred to as “SUB-RECIPIENT.” NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions, covenants, and performance contained herein, or attached and incorporated and made a part hereof, the Parties mutually agree as follows: 1. PURPOSE OF THE AGREEMENT The purpose of this Agreement is to provide funding, provided by the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and allowed under the Assistance Listings Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) numbers 20.600 and 20.608, for traffic safety grant project 2022-HVE-4449-Region 7/8 Target Zero Task Force, specifically to provide funding for the law enforcement agencies in WTSC Region 7/8 to conduct overtime high-visibility enforcement (HVE) traffic safety emphasis patrols as outlined in the Statement of Work (SOW), in support of Target Zero priorities. The Target Zero Manager (TZM) and/or the Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) shall coordinate the SOW with the SUB-RECIPIENT with the goal of reducing traffic crashes. Grant 2022-HVE-4449-Region 7/8 Target Zero Task Force was awarded to the Region 7/8 to support collaborative efforts to conduct HVE activities. By signing this agreement, the SUB-RECIPIENT is able to seek reimbursement for approved overtime expenses incurred as a participant in the region’s HVE grant. 2. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE The period of performance of this Agreement shall commence upon the date of execution by both Parties, but not earlier than October 1, 2021, and remain in effect until September 30, 2022 unless terminated sooner, as provided herein. 3. STATEMENT OF WORK SCOPE OF WORK: AGENDA ITEM #7. o) Problem and Opportunity Statement / Project Overview The main causes of serious injury and fatality collisions on Washington’s roadways are driver impairment through drug and/or alcohol use, and distracted driving. Motorcyclists also represent a high number of injured and killed as a result of unsafe and poorly trained riders and the challenges vehicle drivers face in observing motorcycles on the road. This project will fund locally coordinated high visibility enforcement mobilizations for distracted driving and motorcycle safety. Selected regions will also be given funding for Impaired Driving HVE. Overtime patrols will be organized by local Target Zero Managers (TZMs) & the statewide Law Enforcement Liaison networks and their local Target Zero Task Force. These patrols will also be coordinated with the Washington State Patrol (WSP). Target Zero Managers will establish or strengthen relationships with key WSP district personnel to improve interagency coordination. Goal Prevent traffic crashes to reduce traffic related deaths and serious injuries through active, visible, consistent, and targeted traffic law enforcement. Strategy Prevent drivers from engaging in high-risk behaviors by increasing their perception of the risk of receiving a citation through high visibility enforcement campaigns (HVE). HVE Campaigns influence driver behavior by creating the perception that there is an increased risk of engaging in risky driving behaviors. This perception is achieved through 1) an increase in media messages about upcoming emphasis periods so that the targeted drivers know when the patrols will occur and what will be enforced and 2) drivers have the perception of increased enforcement because they can see a significant and noticeable increase in law enforcement presence (officers pulling cars over) that reinforces the media messages they received and influences them to modify their driving behavior. Objectives and Requirements for All High Visibility Patrols 1. SUB-RECIPIENT will participate in their task force to plan and execute HVE events. The SUB- RECIPIENT in cooperation with the local task force will: a. Conduct robust planning for each HVE event. WTSC recommends creating an operational plan developed by the local traffic safety task force for each HVE event that includes: i. Goals for the event – For example, what behaviors is the event intended to influence? ii. Summary of participating law enforcement agencies, target violations, and target locations. iii. Summary of the public outreach that will be done to promote the event so that drivers in the targeted locations are forewarned and can anticipate it. iv. Use data and information such as crash data, anecdotes of near misses, and professional judgement to pick target locations where the patrols will occur. AGENDA ITEM #7. o) b. The planning for HVE events will be data informed; based on crash data, anecdotal evidence, and the professional judgement of task force members. c. Execute the event using multiple officers (a minimum of three) at the same time in the same target areas to create a visible presence so that the driving public has the perception of law enforcement omnipresence on the targeted roads. Enforcement is highly visible – clearly more than a typical day. d. Participating officers should maximize their contacts during their patrols so that their activity contributes to the goals of the HVE event. See this requirement described below in the section called Other Considerations, Exceptions, And Notes Regarding HVE Events. e. Promote the event through all earned, owned and, if funded, paid media that is available so that the public is made aware of the event before, during, and after the enforcement takes place. Translate messages as needed to reach the majority of drivers in the targeted locations. f. Invite local media involvement in the effort to reach communities in which HVE will occur. g. Strive to actively enforce traffic safety laws focused on collision causing behaviors in priority areas throughout the year outside of HVE events. h. Ensure all participating personnel will use the WEMS system provided by the WTSC to record all activities in digital activity logs conducted by their commissioned officers pursuant to the HVE events. Participating officers will fill out all applicable fields of the digital activity log and use the comments field to provide details on an irregularities, challenges or other details that would help explain what was encountered during their shift. SUB-RECIPIENT will also ensure all supervisors and fiscal staff have the ability to review and edit those activity logs. i. Ensure all participating personnel will receive a briefing prior to the event so that every participant understands the purpose and goals of the HVE event. This can be done in person (preferred) or electronic via telephone or virtual software. Below is a recommended briefing checklist: i. Event goals, and summary of participating law enforcement agencies and officers, target violations, and target locations. ii. List of on-call DREs and request procedures iii. How to fill out their digital activity log in WEMS iv. Information on how the Mobile Impaired Driving Unit will be used (if applicable) v. Dispatch information vi. Spotter processes (if applicable) vii. Available Draeger machines and locations AGENDA ITEM #7. o) j. Ensure all officers participating in these patrols is BAC certified and received and passed the SFST refresher training. k. Support the promotion of HVE events utilizing all of their owned media channels (i.e., Facebook, Twitter, website, email newsletters, or other social media). l. Ensure at least one individual available for weekend media contacts, beginning at noon on Fridays before HVE mobilizations. Objectives and Requirements for Distracted Driving HVE Patrols 1. SUB-RECIPIENT must use the spotter method for all distracted driving HVE events. This method will utilize a team of no less than three officers – one spotter identifying violations and at least two officers responding to violations. 2. Participating officers will document, in the “Comments” box of their activity log, the names of the spotter and chasers with which they were working. 3. SUB-RECIPEINTS utilizing motorcycle officers are exempt from the spotter requirement. 4. SUB-RECIPIENT agrees that distracted driving patrols conducted without using the spotter method will not be compensated by the WTSC. 5. SUB-RECIPIENT will only expend funds for these HVE events in support of the national distracted driving campaign from April 4 to April 11. 6. SUB-RECIPIENT may expend funds outside of the April national campaign, but only when 1) the Target Zero Manager receives written approval from WTSC in advance and 2) the event is in support of a distracted driving focused HVE event organized by the Task Force. Patrols conducted outside of the campaign window, and without pre-approval from WTSC will not be reimbursed. Objectives and Requirements for Motorcycle Safety HVE Patrols 1. SUB-RECIPIENT will focus on the illegal and unsafe driving actions of all other motor vehicles when relating to motorcycles. This includes speeding, failure to yield to a motorcycle, following too closely to a motorcycle, distracted driving, etc. 2. SUB-RECIPIENT ensures that enforcement will focus on the illegal and unsafe driving actions of motorcycles that are known to cause serious and fatal crashes. This includes impaired driving, speeding, and following too closely. 3. The SUB-RECIPIENT will utilize motorcycle officers in these patrols to the fullest extent possible. 4. The SUB-RECIPIENT will only expend funds for these motorcycle HVE events in support of the following campaigns: 5. It’s a Fine Line – (July 8-10, July 15-17, or July 22-24). Note: Patrols must take place Friday, Saturday, or Sunday during the campaign. 6. Oyster Run Event – Summer 2022 (Region 11 only). AGENDA ITEM #7. o) 7. ABATE Spring Opener – Summer 2022 (Region 12 only). 8. Hog Wild Ocean Shores Motorcycle Event – Summer 2022 (Region 2 only). 9. Motorcycle HVE Patrols must take place Friday, Saturday, or Sunday during the It’s a Fine Line campaign, however the local Traffic Safety Task Force can request to conduct patrols during other days in the week if data shows the need for this or for special events. These requests must be sent to Mark Medalen via email (mmedalen@wtsc.wa.gov) at least one week in advance of the proposed event. During special events, patrols should be scheduled during the dates of the event and could start one day before the official event start date and end one day after the official event end date. Other Considerations, Exceptions, And Notes Regarding HVE Events Maximizing contacts: Participating law enforcement officers should make as many contacts as they can during their patrol in the spirit of changing driving behavior. Active, visible, consistent, and targeted traffic law enforcement has an impact on helping to modify driver behavior. A traffic stop affects future driving habits that has a positive influence on reducing the number and severity of collisions. People believe what they hear from each other and it influences what they do. Traffic stops act as a deterrent to risky driving behavior. This strategy has three primary purposes that traffic stops achieve: • The first purpose is to stop a violation of the law for public safety. Officers will accomplish this purpose merely by stopping vehicles. • The second purpose of the stop is to serve as a general deterrent to other drivers. Officers’ visible presence with a vehicle at the roadside has this symbolic effect on other drivers. • Finally, the third purpose is to change the drivers’ future driving behavior. Process Measures • Percent of officers that receive a briefing prior to HVE events. • Percent of HVE activity logs with a start date and end date / time within prescribed campaign windows. • Percent of stops resulting in an infraction or citations issued for high-risk behaviors including but not limited to impaired driving, speeding, distracted driving, and aggressive driving. Objectives and Requirements for Impaired Driving HVE Patrols 1. SUB-RECIPIENT will implement a data driven, sustained enforcement and education efforts. a. Use local traffic crash data and any other useful data to identify the locations where the enforcement patrols should occur. b. Education and local media efforts should incorporate a Positive Community Norms approach with the desired outcome of influencing drivers with the highest potential of causing traffic crashes. c. Commit to an increased level of sustained enforcement as outlined in the operations plan. NOTE: These funds are meant to provide an increase in DUI enforcement efforts, not meant to replace current DUI enforcement. 2. SUB-RECIPIENT will participate in national impaired driving HVE events including: a. Holiday DUI Patrols (December 15 – January 1) AGENDA ITEM #7. o) b. Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over (August 17 – September 5) 3. SUB-RECIPIENT will focus enforcement efforts on driving behaviors that are commonly exhibited by drivers operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol/drugs or a combination. Stopping vehicles for “high discretionary” style stops should not be the priority. 4. SUB-RECIPIENT ensures all officers participating in these patrols has received the Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) training. 5. SUB-RECIPIENT should not supplant regular patrol officer activity during HVE events.

Cities that have a total of 10 or more impaired driving related serious injury or fatalities within the 2018-2020-time frame will be considered Tier 1 group. Cities that have 5-10 impaired driving related serious injuries or fatalities within the same time frame are considered the Tier 2 Group (see below). Both tiers of cities will receive funding to support monthly DUI patrols around the following coordinated dates/events. • November: Thanksgiving Weekend • December: Holiday DUI Campaign • January: Holiday DUI Campaign • February: Superbowl, President’s Day, Valentine’s Day • March: St Patrick’s Day • April: None • May: Cinco de Mayo • June: End of School/Start of 100 Deadliest Days • July: 4th of July • August: Driver Sober, Get Pulled Over Campaign • September: Driver Sober, Get Pulled Over Campaign City/county agencies will be operating within their normal jurisdictions but will coordinate their patrols and learnings through the monthly King County Target Zero Task Force meetings. While monthly dates have been identified for conducting this DUI enforcement, King County’s DUI Team will utilize crash data to inform whether the monthly dates should be adjusted, identify the times of day to deploy enforcement, and which roadways and locations within these jurisdictions to conduct the work. Crash data in King County show the following roadways problematic with regard to DUI crashes and had five or more DUI related crashes between 2018 and 2020: - I-5 - SR 18 - I-90 - SR 99 Tier 1 Cities (10+ DUIs) Tier 2 Cities (5-10 DUIs) • Auburn • Federal Way • Kent • Renton • SeaTac • Seattle • Shoreline • Tukwila • Burien • Issaquah • Kirkland • Bellevue • Redmond AGENDA ITEM #7. o) - 15th Ave – Seattle - SR 164 - SR 167 - SR 169 - I-405 - SR 515 - SR 516 - SR 522 - SR 900 - Airport Way S 2BMeasures • Number of agencies participating • Number of officers planning to deploy • Number of officers actually deployed • Number of arrests (non-DUI) • Number of DUI arrests • Type of DUI (drug, alcohol, poly) • Repeat offender • Refusal info • Number of contacts • Total number of hours worked The King County DUI Team will work within their own jurisdiction but in areas of these high crash data roadways listed above, officers will be coordinated and deployed to work these roadways during patrols. Officers chosen to work the HVE DUI enforcement events will be evaluated by their supervising agency and command staff as well as Target Zero Managers to meet the following targets and information gathering: • Officer’s current assignment at their agency • Approval from their agency and command/supervisory staff to work the enforcement events • Participation in King County Task Force or previous coordinated enforcement events • Specialized DUI enforcement training (ARIDE, Drug Recognition Officer certified, Standardized Field Sobriety Test (SFST) trained) Operation plans will be developed and submitted by either Region 7 or Region 8 Target Zero Manager to WTSC at least two weeks before the enforcement takes place. The operation plan will include date, time of patrols, which agencies will be working them, estimated funding to be spent during each emphasis, briefing information, media outreach in conjunction with WTSC state campaigns or using local police departments’ PIOs to disseminate the media releases. We will also provide a post operation plan which will include the work and results from each monthly enforcement AGENDA ITEM #7. o) 3BPublicity/Earned Media Efforts Publicity and media efforts associated with the impaired driving HVE events with a multi-pronged approach to include: • During HVE events a designated law enforcement officer point of contact will be established to ensure availability to quickly respond to media requests. • Press releases (English and Spanish) to support communications for at least 50% of the outlined HVE patrol events • Public Health – Seattle & King County (Public health Insider) blog posts to support at least 3 impaired driving related events • Facebook posts to support all HVE patrol events • We hope to support earned media for at least two of the impaired driving related events • Will develop a contact list of local participating agencies that can support media requests and inquiries during all scheduled HVE patrol events 4BVisibility Efforts TZMs will work with local organizations to support the visibility of all enforcement effort before the scheduled patrols. This may include using any of the following methods to support the visibility within the community: • Electronic message boards • Social media posts across all the participating police departments • Printed and posted brochure or flyers 5BMeasures • Number of Media requests responded to • Number of social media posts • Number of rack cards disseminated • Number of message boards posted in the community • Number of events attended AGENDA ITEM #7. o) Budget and Budget Narrative Tier 1 = 8 police departments 10 hours per month x $90 (officer OT average across departments) x 11 months Tier 1 = $9,900 estimated per department Auburn, Federal Way, Kent, Renton, SeaTac, Seattle, Shoreline, Tukwila Tier 2 = 5 police departments 6 hours per month x $90 (officer OT average across departments) x 11 months Tier 2 = $5,940 estimated per department: Bellevue, Burien, Issaquah, Kirkland, Redmond **$90 per hour estimate for OT costs across all participating police departments – some OT rates are lower and some are higher so $90 is the average OT rate** AGENDA ITEM #7. o) 3.1.

In order to use federal funds to purchase foreign produced items, the WTSC must submit a waiver request that provides an adequate basis and justification, and which is approved by the Secretary of Transportation. 33. DEBARMENT AND SUSPENSION Instructions for Lower Tier Certification 33.1. By signing this Agreement, the SUB-RECIPIENT (hereinafter in this section referred to as the “lower tier participant”) is providing the certification set out below and agrees to comply with the requirements of 2 CFR part 180 and 23 CFR part 1300. 33.2.

The lower tier participant shall provide immediate written notice to the WTSC if at any time the lower tier participant learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances. 33.4. The terms covered transaction, debarment, suspension, ineligible, lower tier, participant, person, primary tier, principal, and voluntarily excluded, as used in this clause, have the meanings set out in the Definitions and Covered Transactions sections of 2 CFR part 180. 33.5.

A participant in a covered transaction may rely upon a certification of a prospective participant in a lower tier covered transaction that it is not proposed for debarment under 48 CFR part 9, subpart 9.4, debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from the covered transaction, unless it knows that AGENDA ITEM #7. o) the certification is erroneous.

Each participant may, but is not required to, check the List of Parties Excluded from Federal Procurement and Non-procurement Programs. 33.8. Nothing contained in the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this clause. The knowledge and information of a participant is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings. 33.9. Except for transactions authorized under paragraph 35.5. of these instructions, if a participant in a covered transaction knowingly enters into a lower tier covered transaction with a person who is proposed for debarment under 48 CFR part 9, subpart 9.4, suspended, debarred, ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this transaction, the department or agency with which this transaction originated may disallow costs, annul or terminate the transaction, issue a stop work order, debar or suspend you, or take other remedies as appropriate. Certification Regarding Debarment, Suspension, Ineligibility and Voluntary Exclusion - Lower Tier Covered Transactions 33.10.

Section 29 Forbearance by WSDOT Not a Waiver Any forbearance by WSDOT in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any such right or remedy. City of Renton PTD0417 10 of 15 AGENDA ITEM #7. p) Section 30 Lack of Waiver In no event shall any WSDOT payment of funds to the CONTRACTOR constitute or be construed as a waiver by WSDOT of any CONTRACTOR breach, or default.

WSDOT shall serve a notice of termination on the CONTRACTOR setting forth the manner in which the CONTRACTOR is in default hereunder. If it is later determined by WSDOT that the CONTRACTOR had an excusable reason for not performing, such as events which are not the fault of or are beyond the control of the CONTRACTOR, such as a strike, fire or flood, WSDOT may: a) allow the CONTRACTOR to continue work after setting up a new delivery of performance schedule, or b) treat the termination as a termination for convenience. C. WSDOT, in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the CONTRACTOR ten (10) business days, or such longer period as determined by WSDOT, in which to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions. If the CONTRACTOR fails to remedy to WSDOT's satisfaction the breach or default within the timeframe and under the conditions set forth in the notice of termination, WSDOT shall have the right to terminate this AGREEMENT without any further obligation to CONTRACTOR.

The Solid Waste Utility Fund is projected to expand an additional $1.08 million in 2022. The expenses will exceed revenue by $368,000, the amount that will be covered by the fund balance. SUMMARY OF ACTION: During the preparation of the 2021/2022 solid waste rates staff identified a substantial imbalance in the generator of revenue versus cost by the service sector (i.e. residential vs. commercial). It appeared that the commercial sector subsidy of the single-family residential rate was greater than previously noted. Staff identified this issue to the Utility Committee at the time of 2021/2022 Solid Waste Rates presentation. Staff committed to study the issue and prepare a recommended plan to rebalance the rat e for City Council consideration. After adoption of the 2021/2022 rates, several actions have occurred that have impacted the assumption and revenue requirements for the 2022 solid waste rates. First, per the City’s contract with Republic Services, the contractor was due an increase on January 01, 2022, based upon the June 2021 CPI-W which was 6.29%. In the adopted rates for 2022, the rate assumption was a CPI of 2%. Second, King County Solid Waste adopted a 9% disposal rate increase for 2022 which will result in more expenditure based upon our current disposal volumes. Thirdly, the Hazardous Waste Program fee increased by 5.45%, which will increase expenditures based upon the updated number of accounts and services levels. The accumulated effect of these increases are projected to see expenditures over revenue by $1,000,000 in 2022. The staff and consultant study of the rate imbalance and identification of options has been accomplished. The preferred option that staff is proposing is an option that does not make an immediate drastic change to the rate structure but continues the trend of single-family rate payer assuming a greater share of the cost of residential sector programs. This will continue to remain a much smaller subsidy from the commercial sect or, one that is proportional to the benefits they derive by the commercial sector from residential programs. The study examined multiple rate options, evaluated adopted assumptions, and the fund balance requirement, and concluded the following is required for the health and sustainability of the fund: • A 5% revenue increase for the Solid Waste Utility single-family and commercial roll-off, and a 3% revenue increase for commercial/multifamily effective April 1, 2022. • Reduce the annual commercial revenue support for single-family residential to $500,000 by 2026. • Achieve and maintain a fund balance reserve of $2 million by 2026.

RECOMMENDATION: •Approve the proposed 2022 revenue increase of 5% for the Solid Waste Utility single-family residential and commercial roll-off effective April 1, 2022. •Approve the proposed 2022 revenue increase of 3% for the Solid Waste Utility commercial/multifamily effective April 1, 2022. •Approve a fund requirement to achieve annual commercial revenue support for single-family residential of $500,000 by 2026. •Approve a fund requirement to achieve and maintain a fund balance reserve of $2 million by 2026. •Direct staff to prepare the ordinance allowing the city to charge the 2022 Solid Waste rates beginning April 1, 2022. BACKGROUND The 2021-2022 solid waste rates analysis identified a substantial imbalance in the commercial subsidy of single-family residential (single-family) rates, and called to question its long-term sustainability. While presenting the 2021-2022 solid waste rate options and recommendations, staff committed to further study the subsidy and develop recommendations for Council consideration to stabilize and restore more equitable rates between customer sectors for the sustainability of the fund. AGENDA ITEM #7. q) Randy Corman, Council President Page 2 of 8 December 1, 2021 / TPam Rate Model Assumptions The 2021-2022 adopted solid waste rates were modeled in 2020 using our best assumptions available at that time. Key assumptions that have a significant impact on solid waste revenue requirements and rates include the King County Solid Waste Disposal Fee, the Hazardous Waste Program Fee, and the annual CPI-W, all wage earners and clerical for Seattle, Tacoma, and Bellevue (CPI-W) required by the collection contract to adjust contractor’s compensation. At the study’s launch, the rate model was updated to reflect actual, adopted fees and the published CPI-W used to adjust the contractor’s compensation. While the model used to set the 2021-2022 rates assumed a 2% CPI-W increase for 2022, representing a historical average CPI rate, the actual CPI-W came in much higher at 6.29%. Additionally, the Metropolitan King County Council adopted new Solid Waste Disposal Fees increasing the solid waste fund’s per ton disposal revenue requirement by nine percent (9%). Local Hazardous Waste Management fees increase 5.45% in 2022 as well. These updated assumptions suggested the adopted 2022 rates would not be sufficient to cover costs while also meeting fund goals. Questions Considered for Rate Design There are myriad assumptions built into any rate model design to achieve specific goals. This study revisited existing rate design assumptions to review, retain or modify, and confirm their alignment with the Solid Waste Utility program and financial goals. For instance, as we initially considered the imbalance of the commercial revenue support of single-family costs, initial rate model scenarios, analysis of the subsidy imbalance, and discussions of the issues helped determine a course of action to responsibly correct cost-share imbalances, and allocate rates that are equitable and meet Solid Waste program and financial goals. Primary questions for review included: •Should the commercial to single-family revenue imbalance be completely or only partially eliminated? There is justification for some level of subsidy from the commercial sector to the single-family sector. The single-family sector has been unduly burdened with handling waste and recyclables created by choices in product design and packaging made or used by the commercial sector. The single-family sector has also contributed more to city waste prevention and recycling goals than the commercial sector. While the current subsidy of over a million dollars annually is unsustainable, our review concluded that the five-hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) goal is a reasonable amount of commercial support of the single- family sector costs. This subsidy question should be reviewed periodically. When the commercial sector improves its waste prevention and recycling performance and shows a full commitment to solid waste sustainability goals, the city may choose to eliminate this sector’s revenue support of the single-family sector. AGENDA ITEM #7. q) Randy Corman, Council President Page 3 of 8 December 1, 2021 / TPam •Should the revenue support imbalance be fully eliminated all at once or over a defined time to smooth the impact to customers? The study modeled options that eliminated the subsidy all at once and over a five-year rate period (2022 – 2026). Staff concluded both options to eliminate the subsidy resulted in an increased burden on the single-family sector. However, in consideration of retaining a $500,000 commercial sector subsidy of the single-family sector, staff concluded that reducing the current subsidy over a five-year rate period resulted in less burden on the ratepayer. •Should the model retain the current conservation rate design that encourages waste prevention and recycling through incentive pricing? In addition to cross-subsidies between the three customer sectors (single-family, commercial/multifamily, and roll-off), there are also subsidies within the service levels of each customer sector. For example, smaller garbage cart subscribers pay a lower monthly rate than would be imposed if they paid the full costs of collection and disposal for their cart size. For single-family customers, this type of subsidy and an overall sectoral balance of revenues and costs requires that rates for larger carts exceed their collection and disposal costs. This type of subsidy and incentive pricing has been shown to increase recycling and composting and has also demonstrated significant gains in source reduction thereby increasing public health, environmental, and cost benefits from reduced landfill disposal which in turn has extended the life of our regional disposal system. Staff concluded this element of rate design, in place since the inception of the waste prevention and recycling program in 1989 has been effective in meeting the sustainability objectives of the Solid Waste Utility, and should be retained. •Should the model retain the current rate design that encourages collection efficiencies? Currently, the commercial sector rate design incentivizes less frequent collections. For this sector, there is a need to balance diversion incentive deviations from full cost-of-service to account for the objective of minimizing collection frequency (fewer truck trips/week). Fully linear, collection-container- volume-based rates incentivize diversion by charging fees calculated to reflect the amount of garbage container capacity. However, this means, as an example, that a customer using a three-yard detachable front-load container picked up twice weekly would pay the same rate as a customer having a six-yard detachable picked up just once a week. Balancing the cost-of-service and diversion incentive rates (such as volume-based linear), is required to promote AGENDA ITEM #7. q) Randy Corman, Council President Page 4 of 8 December 1, 2021 / TPam lower collection frequencies that reduce CO2 emissions and advance environmental sustainability. •What fund balance reserve level is required for sustainable rate-making? The current adopted minimum fund balance for the Solid Waste Utility is $400,000. The review of the adopted minimum fund balance concluded the amount was insufficient to ensure the fund balance reserve could accommodate disruptions in the receipt of rate revenues or unexpected cost increases to maintain solid waste services. Current monthly disposal costs alone exceed the adopted minimum fund balance criteria. Informed by the rate model, staff concluded that the minimum fund balance should be set at two million dollars ($2 million) and a goal to achieve this level by 2026. •Should a separate rate-stabilization fund be established and included in the rate model to smooth any potential spike in rates over the long term? A rate stabilization fund allows for excess revenue to be set aside and used to minimize the magnitude of a rate increase in the event there are dramatic cost increases or revenue decreases. The Solid Waste Utility is vulnerable to external cost increases such as King County Disposal Fees, CPI-W spikes, or Local Hazardous Waste Program rates, which can have significant consequences on customer rates. While a separate rate stabilization fund could be used to decrease the size of city solid waste rate increases to cover these external impacts or other revenue impacts resulting from increased recycling and other waste prevention efforts, staff concluded that revision of the fund balance reserve criteria may accomplish the same objective. A separate rate-stabilization fund rate model assumption was rejected for this review. •Should rate equity be considered for discounted rates currently based solely on the combination of income threshold, age, and disability, or should access to discounted rates be available to other low-income residents? The existing discounted rate policy, which provides a fifty percent reduction in rates, requires rates to be subsidized by other ratepayers, and is currently available only to income-qualifying, disabled, or low-income customers aged sixty-one and greater. The current income threshold is $58,423 annually for a single resident with an additional $5,000 of income considered for each additional household member. Currently, there are no discounts available for other low-income residents living at or below the threshold established for senior or disabled residents. With equity, and economic justice a primary tenet of the 2021 City of Renton Business Plan, “Build an inclusive informed city with equitable outcomes for all in support of social, economical, and racial justice”, it AGENDA ITEM #7. q) Randy Corman, Council President Page 5 of 8 December 1, 2021 / TPam may be time to examine how discounted rates are defined for the solid waste utility and consider broadening the definition to other income-qualifying residents. Staff concluded this question was outside the scope and timeline of this study. While an important question to ask, the addition of low-income residents within this discounted rate class would require additional subsidy. A separate study that examines the impact of expanding the definition of this rate class would need to be completed. It was suggested that any study of this question should include impacts to the city’s Water, Wastewater, and Surface Water Utilities that also provide senior citizen, and disabled discounted rates per city code. Modeled Options For purposes of the study, the model was updated to reflect actual cost assumptions versus projected assumptions assigned in the model used for the adopted 2021-2022 rates. The effect of the disposal fee and CPI-W increases taken together represents a 7.2% increase in disposal and collection costs alone. Table 1. summarizes various scenarios modeled. Each scenario modeled rates for 2022 – 2027 which helped inform the selection of the recommended rate proposal. Table 1.

Figure 1. Single-Family Annual Rate Increase 2022-2027 by Option illustrates the rate impact to single-family rates when the commercial rate revenue no longer provides support of single-family costs. The initial spike in 2023 helps to raise revenue quickly for sectoral obligations, and results in knocking down rate increases in subsequent years. However, rates in the range of seven (7%) to twelve percent (12%) for single-family customers are untenable. Commercial/multifamily rates represented in Figure 2, also spike in 2023, increasing from zero percent in 2022 to six- and one-half percent (6.5%) in 2023. Some relief is returned in the years 2024 – 2026 but the rate increases again in 2027. In each figure, the effect of a rate increase in April 2022 illustrates the gains that can be made to respond to external cost increases such as the King County disposal fee increase and the collection contract CPI-W adjustment, while also maintaining the goals of decreasing the current commercial revenue support of the single-family sector to $500,000 annually by 2026. A rate increase in April 2022 also eases rate increases in subsequent years, thus smoothing rates over the six-year projection. While the Option 1b single-family and roll-off rate increase for April 1, 2022, is five percent (5%), with commercial/multifamily at four percent (4%), when averaged with the rates adopted for the first quarter 2022, the effective annual rate increase for each sector is a manageable 4.3% for single-family and roll-off and 3% for commercial/multifamily.

Conclusion Implementing the proposed 2022 Solid Waste Utility revenue requirements will allow the city to respond to significant cost increases resulting from the higher than historically average, and unanticipated, CPI-W rate used to adjust the collection contractor compensation and the nine percent (9%) King County per-ton disposal increase. Approving an adjustment to the fund balance reserve requirement, as well as reducing the overall commercial revenue support for the single-family sector, will stabilize and restore more equitable rates between customers for the long-term sustainability of the fund while preserving service standards and programs that continue to deliver results for the city’s environmental stewardship

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Surface Water Utility System Plan (SWUSP) represents the City of Renton’s (City’s) first comprehensive city-wide surface water planning effort since the 1990s. In summary, the SWUSP examines the existing surface water management system, with primary focus on projects and programs that identify and minimize flooding, erosion, and water quality problems as well improve riparian habitat and meet regulatory requirements. Furthermore, the SWUSP is intended to guide programmatic and capital improvement needs for Renton’s Surface Water Utility (Utility) for the next six years and for future years’ guidance. This includes identifying and developing long-term solutions, prioritizing needs that reflect the community’s priorities, quantifying Operation and Maintenance (O&M) needs of the Utility and making sure that there is adequate funding to implement recommendations. MISSION STATEMENT The Surface Water Utility’s goal is to sustainably manage the quantity and quality of surface water runoff in the City to reduce flood hazards, protect public safety, prevent property damage, improve water quality, and protect fish habitat and environmental resources. BACKGROUND ON THE SURFACE WATER UTILITY Utility was created in 1987 as an entity within the Utility Systems Division to maintain, manage, and implement the City’s Surface Water Management (SWM) Program. At that time, its main task was to focus on solving quantity-related flooding problems through the planning, design, maintenance, and construction of drainage facilities and the improved maintenance of existing facilities. The surface water program has evolved over the years. Today, Utility manages the quantity and quality of surface water runoff in the City to reduce flood hazards, protect public safety and prevent property damage, protect water quality, and protect and restore fish and wildlife habitat. Utility includes the Engineering and Maintenance and Operations programs, which include the following activities: 1. Maintaining, repairing, replacing, and improving the City’s storm system infrastructure. 2. The planning, design, permitting and construction of surface water projects as part of Utility’s Capital Improvement Program. 3. Regulatory compliance associated with the Western Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater permit, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act. 4. Customer service regarding drainage complaints, flooding or water quality problems, utility billing and other technical assistance regarding surface water management, along with public education, public involvement, and stewardship programs. 5. Technical assistance to other City Departments and Divisions (Transportation, Planning, Development Services, and Community Services) regarding projects and surface water standards. 6. Manage City’s compliance with the Community Rating System (CRS) Program within the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-2 7. Assisting in the review of new construction for compliance with surface water design standards and the updating of design standards for new construction. 8. Storm system GIS mapping and management of Utility assets. 9. Emergency management, planning, and response associated with flooding and other disasters. 10. Coordination with other cities and counties, along with state and federal agencies, on regional surface water management topics related to flooding, water quality and habitat, and State/Federal Regulatory requirements. 11. Watershed management, planning, and studies. As of the end of 2020, Utility serves approximately 24,465 customers over an area of approximately 24 square miles. Utility maintains approximately 286 miles of drainage pipeline and culverts, approximately 24 miles of open channel conveyance systems, 17,043 drainage structures, 127 stormwater ponds, 66 stormwater tanks, and 68 stormwater vaults. Some of the significant accomplishments of the Utility include: • Completion of over $85.7 million in Utility capital projects between 1992 and 2020. • Basin planning efforts in the May Creek, Cedar River, and Black River Basins. • Completed the Cedar River Section 205 Flood Hazard Reduction Project that included dredging the lower 1.25 miles of the Cedar River, construction of associated levees and floodwalls, constructing multiple mitigation spawning channels and maintaining the facilities to comply with the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) Program. This project included dredging the Lower Cedar River twice, in 1998 and 2016. • Produced updated digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRMs) and flood studies along 5 miles of the lower Cedar River and 2.8 miles along Springbrook Creek. • Implemented a significant number of the flooding and riparian habitat improvements identified in the Eastside Green River Watershed Plan, including replacement of major culvert crossings at SW 34th Street and SW 27th Street. • In partnership with WSDOT, developed the 124-acre Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank. • Received over $50 million in grants and matching funds from various agencies and taxing districts including FEMA, King County Flood Control District (KCFCD), USACE, the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), King County, King Conservation District and Drainage District #1 that were applied to City projects to reduce flooding and improve water quality and stream habitat. • Completed green street connections projects that combined water quality retrofits with drainage improvements. • Addressed miscellaneous emergency stormwater projects as well as numerous small drainage problems. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-3 CHALLENGES FACING THE SURFACE WATER PROGRAM Although Utility has made significant accomplishments, there remain future challenges that must be considered when defining recommendations for new program direction. The following are some of the most significant challenges. NPDES PROGRAM A significant impact to the City’s program is the increasing state and federal stormwater regulations, primarily, the Western Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit, also known as the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit, (NPDES Permit) issued to the City by the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology). The City has been ramping up its surface water program since 2007 to be in compliance with this permit. The current permit, which became effective August 1, 2019, has timetables for several elements that mandate full compliance before it expires on July 31, 2024. The most notable changes to the current 5-year permit include new requirements for implementation of a stormwater planning program and a source control program for existing development. Both of these elements will result in increased demand on City resources compared to the previous permit. This is further discussed in Sections 4.4.8 and 5.2. TMDL Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is a study required under Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act that evaluates and determines the allowable pollutant loading for a water body that exceeds state standards for various pollutants. Once the state determines that a particular water body exceeds a pollutant standard, it is placed on the 303(d) list for a TMDL. Renton has several water bodies that are on the 303(d) list that require TMDL studies to be performed. Renton TMDLs are discussed in more detail in Section 4.4.6. REGULATED FLOODPLAIN IN THE GREEN RIVER VALLEY KCFCD finalized the scoping summary report for the Lower Green River Corridor Flood Hazard Management Plan as a part of the Environmental Impact Study (EIS) associated with the plan in June of 2019. The purpose of this plan is to implement an integrated long-term approach to reduce flood risk within the Lower Green River Corridor, which extends into the southwestern portion of Renton. The plan is intended to reduce flood risk while balancing other important basin objectives, such as improving fish habitat and supporting the economic prosperity of the region. Communication and coordination between the City of Renton and KCFCD has been ongoing throughout the preliminary stages of formulating the Flood Hazard Management Plan. Further details are discussed in Section 2.4.5.3 CONTROLLING FLOODING FROM THE CEDAR RIVER One major Utility task is working alongside KCFCD and USACE on the Cedar River Section 205. The Cedar River Section 205 includes periodic maintenance dredging and repairs to the USACE-built facilities, including floodwalls, levees, spawning channels. The City was the sponsor for the USACE Cedar River Section 205 Flood Hazard Reduction Project, which plays an important role in protecting the City from major flooding that has previously caused millions of dollars in damages. In general, large sediment deposits reduce the flood protection in the lowest 1.25 miles prior to discharging into Lake Washington. The 2006 King County Flood Hazard Management Plan identified the dredging of this reach as a major AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-4 project. Maintenance dredging occurred in the summer of 2016. The funding for the project was provided by KCFCD at an estimated cost of $4.8 million. KCFCD is a special purpose taxing district that was established by King County in 2007 to protect the public from injury and damage from flood hazards and provide a proactive, regional approach to flooding. The district is especially important in county- wide funding for the repair of levees and revetments. Cedar River flood mitigation is further described in Section 2.4.3.3. CEDAR RIVER LEVEE RE-CERTIFICATION In July 2012, the City received notification from USACE that the certification issued for right and left bank levees along the lower 1.23 miles of the Cedar River will expire on August 31, 2013, and future re- certification will be the responsibility of the City. Certification of the levees is essential so that FEMA accredits the levees as providing protection from the 100-year flood and avoid mapping the properties protected by the levees (Renton Municipal Airport and Boeing 737 Plant) in the regulatory floodplain. Levees certified to current FEMA standards must demonstrate that they meet the design, operation, and maintenance requirements described in Title 44, Chapter 1, Section 65.10 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The challenge presented by this effort consists of certifying the levee system based on current standards. Upon conducting various structural, geotechnical, and hydraulic analyses in 2018, the City determined that certain sections of the levees need to be raised to meet current freeboard requirements, and that the levee embankment needs to be widened at certain levee to floodwall transitions. Currently, the City is designing and permitting the required improvements to achieve FEMA accreditation and has secured funding for design and construction from KCFCD. Meanwhile, the City expects to maintain current floodplain designation for the protected areas (Zone X not Zone AE), because FEMA elected to seclude the floodplain of the Lower Cedar River from the King County Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) update. By secluding the Cedar River levees (and other levees in King County) from the update, FEMA can advance the adoption of the DFIRM and subsequently individually assess the level of flood protection of the secluded levees. The City expects to have the levees certified and accredited prior to FEMA taking any action in that regard. HOWARD HANSON DAM AND GREEN RIVER VALLEY Although now operating at full capacity, concerns over reduced storage capacity due to seepage problems at the Howard Hanson Dam and potential flooding of the Green River Valley caused the City to expend significant resources in flood preparedness between 2009 and 2011. In 2009, USACE notified the City and other Green River Valley cities of several sinkholes that had formed in the right embankment of the Howard Hanson Dam after a significant rain event in January 2009. This led USACE engineers to believe that the right embankment could fail if they continued to operate the dam at full capacity. To minimize risk of failure, USACE informed the Green River valley communities that it would need to reduce storage capacity, which could result in the release of more water from the dam during extreme rain events and result in a higher risk of flooding. In coordination with USACE, King County, and other valley cities, the City implemented pre-disaster preparations and preventative measures and continued these measures through 2010. To make the dam fully operational, USACE completed repairs to the dam in the fall of 2011 and can now operate the dam to its full capacity. Further details of the Howard Hanson Dam are discussed in Section 2.4.5.4. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-5 FEDERAL RULING REGARDING CULVERT BARRIERS TO FISH PASSAGE On March 29, 2013, the US District Court for the Western District of Washington issued a permanent injunction requiring state roads owned by WSDOT, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources, the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), and the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission to operate with culvert crossings that are suitable for fish passage. The decision reinforces treaty fishing rights granted by the federal government to Native American tribes in Washington State dating back to the 1860s. The permanent injunction required the State to prepare a list of all culverts with barriers to fish passage in Western Washington within 6 months. WSDOT must also provide fish passage for culverts with barriers by 2030. Although the court ruling focused on State-owned culverts, it is possible it could be broadened in the future to include other governmental entities such as counties and cities. To proactively address the potential liability that the City may face in the future, Utility will begin the process of conducting a stream inventory of all culvert crossings. This information will be used to field survey each culvert crossing in an effort to identify fish passage issues and develop solutions with priority rankings that can be incorporated in the utility’s Capital Improvement Project (CIP) program. Fish passage barriers are described further in Section 5.8. FLOODING, WATER QUALITY, AND HABITAT PROBLEMS The City identified 48 flooding problems, ranging from nuisance flooding to flooding of buildings and arterials (in addition to potential flooding from the Green River) (see Figure 6-2 for locations). The City aims to use CIP funds to reduce flooding for as many of these areas as possible. See the 6-year CIP in Appendix G, which lists projects prioritized for completion in 2021-2026. The Cedar River, May Creek, Springbrook Creek, Maplewood Creek, Black River, and Lake Washington are all listed on Ecology’s 303(d) list of impaired waters. All of these water bodies originate upstream of the City within other upstream jurisdictions that likely contribute to downstream water quality problems. Nevertheless, the City of Renton wants to improve stormwater quality within the City. Water quality problems are typically addressed by the City through development regulations, operational activities (such as street sweeping and catch basin cleaning to remove pollutants before they reach streams), and public education. Protecting and restoring habitat is both a City and a regional objective. The City participates in regional water resource inventory area (WRIA) planning efforts. WRIA planning is done in response to the state Salmon Recovery Planning Act, which in turn was a response to the Endangered Species Act listings. Portions of the City are in two WRIAs. May Creek, Cedar River, and the East and West Lake Washington Basins are all part of WRIA 8. The Springbrook/Black River, Cedar River, and Soos Creek Basins are part of WRIA 9. Salmon conservation plans for WRIAs 8 and 9 were completed in 2005 with the City having adopted these plans and are a sponsoring participant. These plans, together with other plans prepared throughout the Puget Sound region, became part of the official Puget Sound Salmon Recovery Plan approved by NOAA Fisheries in 2007. These plans contain recommendations for protecting and restoring salmon habitat, from general land-use recommendations applicable throughout the watershed to small and large, site-specific habitat restoration projects. The City plans to be a participant on many of the identified projects located within its jurisdiction. Flooding, water quality, and habitat projects are discussed in further detail in Section 6. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-6 INCREASING OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE DEMANDS Another challenge to the Utility is increased operation and maintenance as a result of expansion of the service area through previous annexations. This is particularly true for the 2008 Benson Hill annexation, which increased the City’s area by 32%, increased infrastructure through new construction and development, and added capital improvement projects. Additionally, Utility maintenance staff have assumed responsibility for maintaining vegetation on all City right-of-way, easements and wastewater, water, and surface water facilities. The City also assumed responsibility for maintenance of over 100 residential stormwater facilities beginning in 2012, following a new City Policy that was issued in 2010. City staff resources were increased as a result of the Benson Hill annexation and have generally increased in the last 5 years to keep pace with population growth. However, additional resources are recommended to accommodate the additional operation and maintenance demands, such as increased vegetation maintenance, assumed responsibility of residential stormwater facilities, and new NPDES requirements. INCREASING EMPHASIS ON ASSET MANAGEMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY The need to effectively manage assets (e.g. pipes, structures and facilities) is crucial to the success of the Utility’s operations and its ability to meet regulatory requirements. The City is currently using a combination of CityWorks, GIS, and GraniteNet for its asset management strategy. CityWorks is used to track work orders. GraniteNet is used for condition assessment data and prioritization of asset replacement or rehabilitation. GIS, integrated with CityWorks and GraniteNet, is used to display information and track projects and maintenance activity. The asset management program was driven by the need to assess the condition of corrugate metal pipes at risk of failure. However, it is now recommended that the Utility expand their pipe condition assessment program to include non- corrugated metal pipes (CMP) to capture the condition of all pipes at risk of collapse or failure. Fostering environmental sustainability is a goal adopted by the City Council in the current (2022-2027) business plan. Sustainability is a core principle in the operation of the Utility and Section 4.7.1 describes how the Utility is meeting the sustainability goal set in the current business plan. RECOMMENDATIONS Solutions were considered to solve the City’s surface water problems and future challenges, including: • Capital projects. • Regulatory measures. • Programmatic and policy measures. In general, capital projects are best suited for addressing acute, site -specific problems, and regulatory or programmatic measures affect the entire City. The following paragraphs summarize the plan findings. Refer to Section 7 in the report for more detailed information. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE: • Develop and implement a source control program for existing land uses. • Evaluate receiving water conditions in City watersheds and select high priority watershed for which to develop a Stormwater Management Action Plan. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-7 • Map private stormwater systems connected to the City’s MS4. OTHER FUTURE PROGRAM NEEDS AND POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: • Continue to monitor the increased resources from infill development relative to maintenance staff levels and make adjustments as needed. • Continuation of Residential Plat Stormwater Management Facility and Maintenance and Operation. • Continuation of existing surface water initiatives, including the Mosquito Abatement Program, Stormwater Facility Fencing Program, City-Wide Drainage Maintenance Program, and Stream Flow/Water Quality Monitoring Program. • Enhance the current Asset Management Program to include non-CMP pipes. • Update the Surface Water Utility System Plan every 6 years. • Continue with agency coordination such as WSDOT, KCFCD, FEMA, USACE, and Ecology on issues related to surface water management within the City. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The plan includes a comprehensive list of capital projects proposed to reduce flooding and improve water quality and habitat. Overall, there were substantially more flooding problems identified than could be solved within a six-year planning period. As such, a prioritization scheme was developed with City staff to help guide the timing of project implementation. A three-tiered priority system was developed, as summarized in the following table. TABLE E-1: PROJECTS TO REDUCE FLOODING Priority Level/Description Number of Projects Costs (2020 dollars) Priority 1 - Highest priority projects considering such things as public safety; flooding of arterials that potentially close emergency vehicle access; the number of buildings flooded (numerous buildings vs. one or a few) and the extent of flooding and potential cost of flood damage; and the recurrence of flooding (how often an area gets flooded). 15 $46.6 million Priority 2 - Projects that may include many of the same factors as the Priority 1, but that are not considered a significant safety hazard, may flood one or a few buildings compared to several, or may be subject to flooding on vary rare occasions. 22 $12.3 million Priority 3 - Third priority projects reflect projects that temporarily flood local streets or public/private yards but do not result in significant safety hazards or property damage. 14 $9.2 million AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE E-8 Based on current financial scenarios (discussed below), the City will plan to implement most of the Priority 1 projects within the 6-year CIP planning period with some projects expected to extend beyond the 6-year planning period. Priority 2 and 3 projects would be implemented in subsequent years as funding becomes available. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE Continue to uphold the maintenance and operation program level of service to ensure proper maintenance of City storm systems and facilities, to protect public safety and property by preventing flooding, and meet regulatory requirements by improving water quality and habitat. WATER QUALITY Several of the projects identified can integrate water quality enhancements to provide a water quality benefit and flood reduction. While most water quality problems are being addressed primarily by water quality programs (e.g., development regulations, operational activities such as catch basin cleaning, and public education), to meet compliance with the NPDES Permit program, three water quality retrofit projects are proposed that would significantly improve water quality within the City. These projects are discussed in more detail in Section 6. HABITAT As mentioned previously, salmon conservation plans for WRIAs 8 and 9 were completed in 2005, with the WRIA 8 plan updated in 2017, and adopted by the City. These plans contain recommendations for ESA compliance by protecting and restoring salmon habitat, from general land-use recommendations applicable throughout the watershed to small and large, site-specific habitat restoration projects. The City is committed to helping implement the recommendations of these plans through a variety of methods: partial funding, local sponsorship, expedited permitting, and engineering/planning coordination. Twenty-six projects have been identified in which the City can improve habitat conditions. No detailed cost estimates have been prepared for these projects and a very preliminary high-level cost range between $4M and $8M is estimated. The level of local support provided by the City will vary for each project. The list of projects is given in Table 6-6 of this plan and their locations are shown on Figure 6-4. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 1-1 SECTION 1 HISTORY, ACCOMPLISHMENTS, AND GOALS 1.1 INTRODUCTION This Surface Water Utility System Plan (SWUSP) examines the existing surface water management program with the primary focus of identifying and solving flooding, erosion, habitat, and water quality problems as well as meeting regulatory requirements. The SWUSP is also intended to guide programmatic and capital improvement needs for the City of Renton’s Surface Water Utility (Utility) for the next six years and beyond. This includes identifying and developing long-term solutions, prioritizing projects that reflect the community’s needs, quantifying operation and maintenance (O&M) needs of the Utility, and making sure that there is adequate funding to implement recommendations. 1.2 HISTORY, PROGRAM DESCRIPTION, AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS The City of Renton (City) was incorporated in 1901. Early land alterations in the City included dredging, channelizing the Green and Cedar Rivers to improve navigation, constructing rail corridors and coal mines, and clearing land associated with agriculture and forestry. Flood control within Renton during the early 1900s consisted of drainage courses made to protect forests and agricultural practices. As the population grew, the lowlands changed from forest and agriculture to urban development. This urban development included heavy investments into industrial activities, because Lake Washington, the lower Cedar River, and the Duwamish waterway were all transportation corridors where industrial activity existed. Adjacent areas have been annexed to the City since its initial incorporation and additional annexations will likely continue in the future. Portions of Utility’s infrastructure (facilities and conveyance systems) are aging and in need of repair and improvement. This aging infrastructure coupled with new development must be maintained, managed, and implemented in a way that meets regulatory requirements, enhances the City’s existing storm drainage system, and does not exacerbate existing problems. Utility was created in 1987 as an entity within the Public Works Department, Utility Systems Division to maintain, manage, and implement the City’s Surface Water Management (SWM) Program. At that time, its main task was to focus on quantity-related flooding problems through the planning, design, maintenance, and construction of public drainage facilities; review and approval of the construction of private drainage facilities; and improving maintenance of existing facilities. The surface water program has evolved over the years as described below. 1.3 UTILITY MISSION Utility’s mission is to serve our customers by sustainably managing the quantity and quality of surface water runoff in the City to reduce flood hazards, protect public safety, prevent property damage, improve water quality and protect fish and environmental resources. Where applicable, the City will coordinate the management of the system with other regional and adjacent jurisdiction efforts.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 1-3 • Completing over $85.7 million in Surface Water Utility Capital Improvement Projects between 1992 and 2020. • Basin planning efforts in the May Creek, Cedar River, and Black River Basins. • Completed the Cedar River Section 205 Flood Hazard Reduction Project that included dredging the lower 1.25 miles of the Cedar River, construction of associated levees and floodwalls, constructing multiple mitigation spawning channels and maintaining the facilities to comply with the USACE FEMA Program. This project included dredging the Lower Cedar River twice: in 1998 and 2016. • Produced updated digital flood insurance rate maps (DFIRMs) and flood studies along 5 miles of the lower Cedar River and 2.8 miles along Springbrook Creek. • Implemented a significant number of the flooding and riparian habitat improvements identified in the Eastside Green River Watershed Plan, including replacement of major culvert crossings at SW 34th Street and SW 27th Street. • In partnership with WSDOT, developed the 124-acre Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank. • Received over $50 million in grants and matching funds from various agencies and taxing districts including FEMA, KCFCD, USACE, WSDOT, Ecology, King County, and the King Conservation District and Drainage District #1 that were applied to City projects to reduce flooding and improve water quality and stream habitat. • Completed green street connections projects that combined water quality retrofits with drainage improvements. • Addressed miscellaneous emergency stormwater projects and numerous small drainage problems. 1.4 UTILITY GOALS Utility’s goals include flood risk reduction, water quality improvement, and aquatic habitat and environmental resource conservation, while carrying out the policies and priorities set by elected officials and the City’s business plan. The Surface Water Utility provides five basic services: • Flood risk reduction. • Regulatory and water quality compliance. • Aquatic habitat and environmental resource protection. • Maintenance of the storm water system. • Customer service. Flood risk reduction involves protecting public safety by preventing flood damage to property and preventing disruption of mobility and critical services caused by stormwater flows that exceed system capacity. This is accomplished primarily through the planning, design, construction, operation and AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) HISTORY, ACCOMPLISHMENTS, AND GOALS O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 1-4 maintenance of channels, pipes, roadside ditches, culverts, detention ponds, and natural and man-made open water courses. Regulatory and water quality compliance programs reduce pollution through public education and involvement, implementation of regulations (inspections and code enforcement of commercial and residential facilities), maintenance of infrastructure (through system catch basin cleaning, and other activities), and capital projects that provide treatment and reduce pollutants. This program is largely driven by required compliance with the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the NPDES Phase II Municipal Stormwater permit as described in Section 1.3.1, but is also important for maintaining the aesthetics and livability of the community. Often water quality capital projects are integrated into flood risk reduction projects. This program area also includes addressing sources of pollution and implementing management practices that reduce non-point pollution in stormwater from public and private sources. The aquatic habitat and environmental resource protection program area involves identifying and preserving existing habitat; identifying high-quality stream habitat in the City; implementing development standards that protect environmental resources including critical areas such as streams and wetlands and their buffers; improving water quality; providing public education; and coordinating public efforts to protect or enhance habitat. The Utility provides customer service by providing responses to questions and complaints, public education, flood hazard monitoring and response assistance during flood events. 1.5 PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS In developing this Plan, representatives from various City Departments were included in identifying current flooding, water quality, erosion, and habitat problems within the City. City staff also assisted in identifying the level and cost of current programmatic responsibilities and developing priorities for future capital and programmatic needs. Those involved during development of the Plan included staff from Surface Water Engineering, Maintenance Services, Community and Economic Development Services, and Finance. In addition, as part of the development of the capital improvement program and programmatic needs, workshops were held with City staff to discuss the existing program, NPDES permitting requirements, and stormwater infrastructure maintenance. Utility engineering and maintenance personnel and management participated in identifying and reviewing capital stormwater improvement projects that need to be programmed in the future. The list of major storm system deficiencies was augmented based on citizen complaints. Utility staff also reviewed King County complaints in annexed areas in order to identify problems related to flooding, water quality, and habitat/environmental preservation. The public will be involved in the process of developing this Plan through the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) process. A draft of this Plan will be included on the City’s website for the public to view and provide comments. Copies of the draft SWUSP will be available for public download and review, and the public is always invited to attend City Council meetings or committee meetings that discuss this Plan.

In anticipation of lowering Lake Washington as a result of the construction of the Hiram Chittenden Locks, the Cedar River was diverted into Lake Washington between 1912 and 1916. The Black River, which previously drained Lake Washington, dried up in 1916 when the water level in Lake Washington lowered. The following list gives a general history of the Green and Cedar River areas: 1911 White River permanently diverted from Green River to Puyallup River. 1912 Masonry Dam closed on the Cedar River and drinking water diverted for the City of Seattle. 1913 Drinking water diversion on the Green River constructed by the City of Tacoma. 1916 Lake Washington outflow directed to Hiram Chittenden Locks and lake levels lowered 9 feet. 1916 Cedar River discharge diverted from the Black River to Lake Washington, and due to the lake lowering, the Black River dried up, except for drainage from Springbrook Creek. 1917 Duwamish Waterway constructed. 1940s Most of Green/Duwamish wetlands converted to developed land. 1962 Howard Hanson Dam built for Green River flood control. These major actions reduced flood risk and improved navigation and provided drinking water. They also created two distinct watersheds, WRIAs 8 and 9.

The quantity for private facilities includes residential subdivisions, commercial and industrial sites, and facilities not owned by the City. 2.3.1.5 Ditches Ditches are constructed earth channels, generally lined with vegetation, but sometimes with asphalt, rock, or concrete, that convey stormwater in areas not served by piped systems. 2.3.2 WATER QUALITY TREATMENT FACILITIES Water quality treatment facilities remove pollutants from stormwater runoff. Water quality treatment facility types consist of vegetated flowpath, wetpool, oil control, bioretention, filtration, and emerging technology. 2.3.2.1 Vegetated Flowpath Facilities Vegetated flowpath facilities, such as biofiltration swales and filter strips, remove pollutants through particle settling and to a lesser extent, absorption or adsorption onto grass or soil. Biofiltration swales are grass-lined, gently sloped ditches that provide water quality treatment of polluted stormwater runoff. The shape, slope, width, and length of the swale are designed to provide water quality treatment. Biofiltration swales may be wet or dry swales with different grass mixtures determined by type, soil, width and slope characteristics. Filter strips are sloped grassy areas that remove pollutants from adjacent impervious surfaces. 2.3.2.2 Wetpool Facilities Wetpool facilities such as wetponds, wetvaults, and stormwater wetlands are facilities that store a large permanent volume of water that allows for the settling (removal) of pollutant particles from stormwater runoff. Stormwater wetlands are constructed shallow ponds that treat stormwater through the biochemical and physical processes of aquatic plants. 2.3.2.3 Catch Basins and Oil Control Facilities The sump at the bottom of most catch basins is used to capture sediment and other debris from incoming stormwater. A trapped outlet (e.g., elbow or tee) that prevents most floating debris and oil from leaving the catch basin is sometimes used. Oil control facilities include baffle and coalescing plate oil/water separators. These structures are specifically designed for the removal of oil and other petroleum pollutants that are carried in AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐9  stormwater runoff from parking areas and streets. Oil/water separators are generally underground  vaults and trap sediments and floatable materials in addition to removing oil.   2.3.2.4 Bioretention  Bioretention facilities include cells, swales, and planters. Cells are landscaped shallow depressions.  Swales are similar in design to cells, but also convey stormwater runoff. Planters are vertical walled  containers that allow for infiltration. These facilities treat stormwater runoff through chemical,  biological, and physical processes associated with plants and engineered soils.  2.3.2.5 Other Surface Water Quality Treatment Facilities  Other surface water quality treatment facilities include filtration and emerging technology. Filtration  facilities, such as sand filters, sand filter vaults, and linear sand filters, trap pollutants in or on sand  particles. Emerging technologies include proprietary and public domain facilities. Proprietary facilities  are protected by intellectual property rights and typically contain a filtering device that removes  stormwater pollutants. Public domain facilities, such as media filter drain and compost amended  biofiltration swales (CABS), remove pollutants through chemical, biological, and physical methods.  2.3.3 FLOW CONTROL FACILITIES   Flow control facilities consist of retention/detention ponds and underground storage facilities (vaults  and pipes) as well as infiltration ponds, tanks, vaults, trenches, manufactured systems, and catch basins.  The purpose of these facilities is to temporarily store stormwater so that it can be released at a  controlled rate to downstream receiving water bodies or into the ground. Flow control facilities thereby  reduce increases in runoff rates from new and redevelopment construction projects to prevent  downstream flooding and erosion and to protect habitat. The total number of facilities within the City,  both privately‐owned and City‐owned, are summarized in Table 2‐2.  2.3.4 ON‐SITE BMPS  Changes to land cover associated with proposed development and redevelopment projects within the  basin can impact storm and surface water runoff, which results in changes to basin hydrology and water  quality. Therefore, the impacts from installation of new impervious, new pervious, existing impervious,  and replaced impervious surfaces associated with development must be mitigated by on‐site best  management practices (BMPs). On‐site BMPs are methods for reducing or preventing development‐ related increases in runoff at the source of the increase and include, among others, dispersion of runoff  using preserved native vegetation or other pervious surfaces, permeable pavements, bioretention,  infiltration systems, and reduction of the development or redevelopment footprint. The selected and  implemented on‐site BMPs vary between projects and must be selected based on site conditions  following the guidance outlined in the City’s Surface Water Design Manual.  2.4 DRAINAGE BASINS   The purpose of this section is to characterize the stream and river drainage basins in the City and its UGB  and to summarize the status of the Renton Surface Water Utility basin planning efforts.   Drainage basins and subbasins are defined as areas of land where precipitation collects and drains to a  common outlet, such as a river and its tributaries, a bay, or other body of water. Precipitation is  conveyed through a drainage basin by natural means, such as streams and rivers, or by constructed  AGENDA ITEM #

9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐14  scarcity of pools, which are an important component of stream habitat. The portion of the stream within  the shoreline planning area provides spawning habitat, but all species migrate upstream past the ravine  to spawn and rear in May Valley reaches.   2.4.1.3 Basin Planning Status  May Creek and its subbasins were the subject of an extensive study, the May Creek Current and Future  Conditions Report (May Creek Report) (King County, 1995a). This study, administered by the King County  Department of Public Works, Surface Water Management (SWM), with the support of the City,  documented hydrology, erosion, sedimentation, water quality, and aquatic habitat in the basin.  The City and King County also entered into an interlocal agreement for the development of the May  Creek Basin Action Plan (May Creek Plan) (King County, 2001). The May Creek Plan was adopted by King  County, the City of Renton, and the City of Newcastle. It used the information assembled in the May  Creek Report to develop plans for remediation and restoration in the basin. The May Creek Plan focused  on a five‐year window to implement recommendations. Projects completed since 2001 include  placement of large woody debris and outfall projects to correct ongoing hillside erosion.  2.4.1.4 Basin Hydrology As part of the May Creek Report work, King County modeled stream flows using the Hydrologic  Simulation Program ‐ Fortran (HSPF). The HSPF model used recorded stream flow data from May Creek,  rainfall data, and land use and channel geometry information to make long‐term hydrologic simulations.  Predevelopment (forested), current (1995 conditions), future, and future mitigated (with runoff  controls) land use scenarios were modeled to evaluate the effects of land use changes on hydrologic  conditions in the basin (King County, 1995a).  The proportion of effective impervious area has increased from 0% under predevelopment conditions to  a basin‐wide average of 7% under 1995 conditions (King County, 1995a). Most of this impervious surface  area is in the western and southern portions of the basin, in or near the Renton city limits.  Peak flows have increased as a result of this increase in impervious area and land clearing. Erosion has  occurred in the hillsides above May Valley, causing flooding and sediment deposition in the valley area,  erosion in the canyon downstream of the valley, and flooding and sediment deposition in the area near  the mouth of May Creek.  Future land use assumptions (in 1995) were based on full development in the basin in accordance with  the future land use plan developed by the City and King County as part of the growth management  process. This development was predicted to increase the effective impervious area for the entire May  Creek basin from 7–12%. Some of this increase in imperviousness has occurred since the estimate in the  1995 plan.  Table 2‐3 presents results from the May Creek Report HSPF model for predicted peak flows for each  May Creek tributary that lies within the City for the 2‐, 10‐, 25‐, and 100‐year recurrence events. The  table shows flows for 1995 conditions and future conditions without mitigation of flows through the use  of stormwater regulatory controls such as retention/detention ponds and infiltration systems.    AGENDA ITEM #

Future condition flows were predicted in 1995 assuming no regulatory stormwater runoff controls such as retention/detention and infiltration systems for new development. Therefore, these future condition predictions are likely overstated. Source: May Creek Current and Future Conditions Report (King County 1995a) 2.4.1.5 Lower May Creek Subbasin  The Lower May Creek subbasin (see Figure 2‐1) has a total area of 0.82 square miles, with 0.77 square  miles within Renton city limits. Gypsy Creek joins May Creek within the Lower May Creek subbasin, and  Honey Creek joins May Creek at the upstream end of the Lower May Creek subbasin. The East  Kennydale catchment is a portion of the Lower May Creek subbasin, but was analyzed as a separate  subbasin in the hydrologic analysis.  Lower May Creek flows through a canyon and an alluvial fan downstream of the canyon. The stream is  contained within the canyon walls until it reaches the alluvial fan, which is located on the downstream  (west) side of I‐405. The canyon slopes up to a plateau with suburban residential development.  Hydrology ‐ 1995 Conditions: Although the hillslope areas that drain into the Lower May Creek subbasin  canyon are highly developed, the May Creek canyon itself has not been developed. This is because the  canyon is narrow and has steep and unstable side walls. Increased peak flows from the tributaries  contribute to the erosion in the canyon. Sediment from this erosion is moved by the stream to the  alluvial fan near its mouth, where it deposits along the Lake Washington shoreline.   The majority of the development that has occurred along Lower May Creek is on, or adjacent to, the  alluvial fan near the mouth of the stream. The additional runoff from new development on the alluvial  fan adds a relatively small amount to the peak flows traveling down the mainstem of May Creek. As a  result, development on the alluvial fan causes few hydrologic and flood‐related problems to the  mainstem of May Creek. However, some localized flooding outside of the creek's floodplain does occur  because of undersized conveyance systems.   Prior to development, 2‐year peak flows traveling in the mainstem of May Creek were 30–50% smaller  than the peak 2‐year flows under 1995 conditions (King County, 1995a). Additionally, the 2‐year  predevelopment peak flows entering the Lower May Creek subbasin from the tributaries, such as Gypsy  Creek and Honey Creek, were much smaller (less than 50%) than the 2‐year peak flows under 1995  conditions. In 1995, the mean annual flow of May Creek was 14 cubic feet per second (cfs) upstream of  Coal Creek Parkway, and approximately 26 cfs in the lower reach.  Hydrology ‐ Future Conditions: Future development in the Lower May Creek subbasin will probably be  limited to areas outside of the canyon. Consequently, any expected increases in peak flows will result  primarily from increased peak flows entering the canyon from May Valley and tributaries draining the  plateau region to the east. Some additional development is also expected for the alluvial fan area  downstream of the canyon.  AGENDA ITEM #

A large portion of this catchment (a 48-acre area) historically drained to a closed depression near the intersection of Aberdeen Avenue NE and NE 24th Street. Recurrent flooding was occurring at the low point and in the late 1990s, the City constructed a trunk drainage system that provided a new gravity outlet that extended north and west to NE 27th Street and then along Kennewick Place NE and ultimately to an existing outfall down a steep slope to May Creek. These improvements were made following a study, NE 27th Street/Aberdeen Avenue NE Storm System Improvement Project (R. W. Beck, 1997b). Hydrology - 1995 Conditions: Basin hydrology was developed as part of the NE 27th Street/Aberdeen Avenue NE Storm System Improvement Project. The study reported an impervious area percentage of 31 percent and the 25-year and 100-year peak flows to be 9.7 and 11.8 cfs, respectively. Note that the current flows as of today are much higher than this because the 48-acre area that previously drained to a closed depression now drains to May Creek. The current peak flows are more likely to resemble those estimated for future conditions. Hydrology – Future Conditions: The modeling that was done for the NE 27th Street/Aberdeen Avenue NE Storm System Improvement Project included the new trunk line to drain the closed depression and also looked at future land use conditions. Under future land use conditions, the impervious area was estimated to increase to 37 percent. Estimated peak flows for future conditions for the 25- and 100-year event are 26.1 and 31.9 cfs, respectively. These flows are likely overstated because they do not account for future on-site detention that may be required for new development and redevelopment. 2.4.2 EAST LAKE WASHINGTON BASIN The East Lake Washington Basin is within WRIA 8. The East Lake Washington Basin is composed of several subbasins that drain directly to the southeastern portion of Lake Washington, as shown in Figure 2-1. These include the West and South Kennydale subbasins near the north end of the City, the NE 44th Street Exit Drainage Area subbasin (formerly called Gypsy subbasin) lying north of the May Creek outlet, and the North Renton subbasin (see Figure 2-4) situated south of Kennydale. The North Renton subbasin drains directly to Lake Washington at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park via Johns Creek. The North Renton subbasin is one of the more significant drainage basins in the City because it drains a highly developed area near the core of the City. The NE 44th Street Exit Drainage Area subbasin is predominately an open ditch surface runoff system draining the steep area east of I-405 with upstream contributing Newcastle residential and Renton commercial areas. The lower portion of the subbasin has been channelized or is contained within culverts. In 2008, Utility constructed the Ripley Lane Storm System Improvement Project that included the construction of a 72-inch and 60-inch-diameter storm drain system that conveys flow from Ripley Lane to Lake Washington across the Seahawks Training Center. The project was constructed in coordination with the Seahawks and WSDOT and conveys future condition flows for the NE 44th Street Exit Drainage Area subbasin. This project reduced frequent flooding occurring along Ripley Lane N. The majority of the West and South Kennydale subbasins are dominated by open ditch runoff collection systems that outfall to Lake Washington across Lake Washington Boulevard N via several culvert AGENDA ITEM #

More change is expected in the South Kennydale area, where development of areas into medium-density single-family residential areas is expected to occur. Future flows from South Kennydale subbasin 4 more than double for the 2-year and 10-year peak events. Table 2-4 presents predicted future peak flows for the West and South Kennydale subbasins.

Source: (HDR 1995) 2.4.2.6 NE 44th Street Exit Drainage Area (formerly Gypsy) Subbasin There is a small area of land to the north of the May Creek outlet that has been referred to as the Gypsy subbasin in previous documentation, but to avoid confusion with Gypsy Creek in the May Creek basin, this area is now referred to as the NE 44th Street Exit Drainage Area subbasin. This area drains through a culvert near the intersection of I-405 and Lake Washington Boulevard NE. Hydrology - 2005 Conditions: The area drained by this culvert is a steep slope that has been partially developed for commercial use and multifamily residential units. The most recent hydrologic modeling of this subbasin was done in 2007 as part of the Ripley Lane Drainage Improvement Project (Parametrix, 2007). This study included updating a prior StormSHED modeling of the basin by Entranco and by WSDOT that used 2005 aerials for the existing land use. The resulting peak flows for the 100-year storm are presented in Table 2-5. This study did not investigate other storm events for current land use conditions. Hydrology – Future Conditions: The Ripley Lane Drainage Improvement Project (Parametrix, 2007) also included an estimate for the 100-year storm for future land use conditions. This study did not estimate peak flows for the 2-, 10-, or 25-year storms. However, prior modeling done by WSDOT for future land use conditions provided similar results for the 100-year storm and results from this modeling effort also included the 25-year storm (and thus was added to Table 2-5). The future condition 100-year peak flow estimate represents an increase in 36% over existing conditions. Part of this increase is the result of an I-405 project that increased the basin size by draining an estimated 70 acres of additional area to Gypsy Creek (Parametrix, 2007). The remaining part of the increase is to increases in impervious area. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC.

Within the boundaries of the North Renton drainage basin, shown in Figure 2-4, are portions of the Boeing facilities, the PACCAR facility, The Landing, and numerous residential and commercial sites. The basin includes a developed upland area that slopes down to a flat valley floor. A piped drainage network conveys runoff from the area prior to discharging to Johns Creek, which flows into Lake Washington. Most of the area was developed before stormwater regulations came into effect. Therefore, runoff is conveyed directly to Johns Creek or Lake Washington via an elaborate pipe network with no detention or treatment. Almost all surface conveyance is through pipes, since many small streams were eliminated by historic land development practices. Runoff in the upper portion of the basin is collected in roadside ditches and conveyed to a network of collector storm drains installed along the roadways. Runoff in the lower basin is collected and conveyed in a series of stormwater pipes. The pipe systems discharge near the intersection of Lake Washington North and Houser Way North into an open-channel system. From this point, the water flows through a series of culverts and sections of constructed open channel (Johns Creek) through Gene Coulon Park to Lake Washington. Johns Creek has a flat slope; therefore, water in this channel can back up from Lake Washington during high flows. For this reason the creek does not experience erosion, but is subject to sediment deposition due to its low gradient. The lake is an important aquatic resource for the bird and fish species established in the wildlife habitat near the outlet, as well as for the public that use the beach and boat launch facilities. Hydrology: The South Lake Washington Roadway Improvement Report, (BHC, 2007) analyzed the capacity of the storm drain both before and after roadway construction. The hydrologic analysis of the North Renton subbasin was conducted using the Santa Barbara Urban Hydrograph (SBUH) method. The subbasin was divided into additional subbasins for analysis, presented in Table 2-6. The upland subbasins were combined into the Johns Creek (at upstream outfall) subbasin. This subbasin includes the area south of Sunset Boulevard and east of I-405. Flows from this area enter the storm system at the east end of N 8th Street. The three northernmost subbasins contain residential neighborhoods and drain to a pipe system that extends west from Sunset Boulevard to a pond on the south side of Lake Washington Boulevard prior to discharging into Johns Creek. Flow from the Boeing facilities and their maintained outfalls are not included in the table. The PACCAR/residential site was modeled individually along with the area south of N 8th Street, east of Logan, north of N 4th Street, and west of Garden Avenue S. This area drains both to the Johns Creek system via Garden Avenue as an overflow and to the N 6th Street outfall to the Cedar River. These analyses determined that the limited capacity of the downstream system has an upstream effect on flooding in localized areas of The Landing and the PACCAR/residential areas.

9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐24  watershed. The City ratified this plan in Resolution 3761. The Plan was updated in 2017 and ratified in  Resolution 4336.  In 1998, the City partnered with USACE to construct the Cedar River Section 205 Flood Hazard Reduction  Project in an effort to reduce chronic flooding along the lower Cedar River, including areas within the  Renton Airport and the Boeing aircraft manufacturing facility. The project constructed levees and  floodwalls along the left and right bank of the lower 1.25 miles of the river in addition to removing over  120,000 cubic yards of dredge material. After completion of the project, the City requested that USACE  certify the right lower Cedar River setback levee that was designed and constructed to contain the 100‐ yr base flood. USACE concurred with the City’s request and certified the right bank levee as containing  the 100‐yr base flood in 2004. Maintenance dredging occurred in summer 2016 (Brooks et al., 2019).  In 2006, as part of FEMA’s Countywide DFIRM update, the City prepared and submitted a LOMR for the  purpose of revising the current effective FEMA maps for the lower Cedar River. The LOMR, based on  updated hydrology and the USACE certification of the right bank levee, was approved by FEMA in 2007.  The resulting floodplain maps showed areas previously designated as flood hazard areas (Zone AE)  designated as shaded Zone X (areas protected by levees).  In July 2012, the City received notification from USACE that the certification issued for right and left  bank levees along the lower 1.23 miles of the Cedar River would expire on August 31, 2013, and future  re‐certification will be the responsibility of the City. Certification of the levees is essential so that FEMA  accredits the levees as providing protection from the 100‐year flood and avoid mapping the properties  protected by the levees (Renton Municipal Airport and Boeing 737 Plant) in the regulatory floodplain.  Levees certified to current FEMA standards have to demonstrate that they meet the design, operation,  and maintenance requirements described in Title 44, Chapter 1, Section 65.10 of the Code of Federal  Regulations. The challenge presented by this effort includes certifying the levee system based on current  standards. Upon conducting various structural, geotechnical, and hydraulic analyses in 2018, the City  determined that certain sections of the levees need to be raised to meet current freeboard  requirements and that the levee embankment needs to be widened at certain levee to floodwall  transitions. Currently, the City is designing and permitting the required improvements in Phase 3 of the  Cedar River 205 Project Levee Recertification Project to achieve FEMA accreditation and has secured  funding for design and construction from KCFCD. Meanwhile, the City expects to maintain current  floodplain designation for the protected areas (Zone X not Zone AE), because FEMA elected to seclude  the floodplain of the Lower Cedar River from the King County DFIRM update. By secluding the Cedar  River levees (and other levees in King County) from the update, FEMA can advance the adoption of the  DFIRM and subsequently individually assess the level of flood protection of the secluded levees. The City  expects to have the levees certified and accredited prior to FEMA taking any action in that regard.   2.4.3.4 Basin Hydrology  The City and King County entered into an interlocal agreement to develop a basin plan for the Cedar  River. In November 1993, King County SWM produced the Cedar River Current and Future Conditions  Report (Cedar River Report). This report includes information on the environmental setting of the Cedar  River, current as of 1993 and in the geologic past, and analyses of surface water hydrology, flooding,  erosion, water quality and aquatic habitats. The basin was studied for changing land use and its effects  upon the river hydrology using the HSPF hydrology model.   The analyses divided the river basin into three geographic components. The components included the  Upper Basin, which is the area above the City of Seattle’s Landsburg Diversion, and the Middle and  Lower Basins. This study addresses hydrologic problems in areas within the city boundary, within the  UGB, as well as the area beyond the city limits.   AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐25  The Cedar River Basin planning effort also includes characterization of the hydrogeology of the basin,  mapping of susceptibility to groundwater contamination, groundwater level measurements, and  groundwater modeling. The results of the hydrogeologic study help to identify measures needed to  protect groundwater resources, including surface water management in areas of critical groundwater  recharge.  The latest Cedar River flow estimates were developed by King County in March 2000. King County  estimated flow values for the 10‐, 50‐, 100‐ and 500‐year flows based upon a flood frequency analysis of  approximately 80 years of peak flow data (fit by a Log Pearson Type III distribution). The 10‐, 50‐,  100‐ and 500‐year return peak flows (Table 2‐7) for the Cedar River at Renton are estimated to be  5,940 cfs, 9,860 cfs, 12,000 cfs, and 18,400 cfs, respectively. These estimates were made assuming  consistent Masonry Dam operations.   Prior to this, King County had developed an HSPF model in 1993 as part of the Cedar River Current and  Future Conditions Report. The 1993 modeling estimated local flows from subbasins within the UGB  (Table 2‐7).   The majority of flows in the river above 4,000 cfs in Renton are caused by peak inflows of similar  magnitude from the upper basin, not by lower basin flow contributions within the UGB. Basin runoff has  increased as a result of deforestation and land development, with most increases occurring during the  winter flood season.  Urbanization in the tributaries has caused an estimated 7% increase in mainstream flood peaks from  natural conditions. Flows from the lower basin area have a minor impact on the mainstem peak  discharges, but increase the duration of flooding at Renton significantly. Current levels of urbanization  within the basin have increased the durations of flood flow at Renton by 12% over forested conditions.   According to King County projections (King County, 1993), future land development will result in an  additional 8% (unmitigated) increase in peak flows for the lower outfall area of the Cedar River. In  addition, flood flow duration will also lengthen, increasing 17% over current conditions.     AGENDA ITEM #

Comprehensive Storm Water Plan, Maplewood Creek Basin Plan (Parametrix, 1989). City of Renton Surface Water Utility Comprehensive Plan (HDR, 1995). 2.4.3.5 Lower Cedar River Subbasin The City has designated a number of subbasins tributary to the Cedar River; however, several of these subbasins were combined in the Cedar River Report. The Arnold, Mt. Olivet, and Cedar River Outfall subbasins were combined into a larger subbasin, called the “Lower Cedar River” in the Cedar River Report; thus, individual studies of these subbasins do not exist. Well-developed storm drainage systems in these areas deliver runoff water directly to the Cedar River. Hydrology - 1993 Conditions: The lowest reach of the Cedar River is an artificial channel that was constructed to reroute the Cedar River from the Black River to Lake Washington in the early part of the 20th century as a result of the lowering of Lake Washington. The channel is wide and has a gentle gradient, which results in lower velocities that allow for the deposition of excess sediment from upstream sources. Sediment deposits reduce channel capacity and increase the risk of flooding. Much of the area surrounding the lower reach has been developed and includes a portion of the downtown area, a residential neighborhood, the Renton Municipal Airport, some commercial areas, and portions of the Boeing industrial complex. This subbasin has been urbanized since the early 20th century. Storm drains were most likely installed during development and any subsequent redevelopment. A specific hydrologic analysis has not been performed for the area. Because of the small area, and development which already exists, future flows are not expected to increase from this portion of the City. However, flooding problems in this area may increase as a result of increased flows in the Cedar River and increased sedimentation on the lower reach of the river. Land use in the Mt. Olivet subbasin, however, is quite diverse. There were two cemeteries, a ballpark, a quarry, an industrial area, a residential subdivision, cleared open land and forested land within the subbasin (HDR, 1995). Land use in the Arnold subbasin is primarily residential. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 2-27 The subbasin was modeled using HSPF (King County, 1993) to predict peak flows and the capacity of the drainage system to convey the flows. The Cedar River flows were further evaluated by King County in 2000. Storm events were developed from the 2-, 10-, 25-, and 100-year, 24-hour design storm; these flows are shown on Table 2-7. Hydrology – Future Conditions: The Mt. Olivet subbasin recently experienced increased commercial and residential development, so current peak flows are likely to be closer to the estimated “future” peak flows in the Cedar River Report (King County, 1993). However, since the 1993 estimates did not consider stormwater runoff controls such as retention/detention and infiltration systems for new development, they are likely overstated. 2.4.3.6 Tiffany/Ginger Creek Subbasin The Tiffany/Ginger Creek subbasin drains an area on the southwest side of the Cedar River, upstream of the Arnold subbasin. The major tributary flowing through this subbasin is Ginger Creek. The Tiffany/Ginger Creek subbasin includes the Ginger Creek drainage basin area plus an area drained by several smaller, non-designated streams. The entire area was studied as a part of the Cedar River Report; however, the County study had slight variations in watershed boundary, subbasin delineation, and land use from Renton Land Use Maps. The developed portion of the subbasin includes established drainage systems which discharge into Ginger Creek. Hydrology - 1993 Conditions: The geography of the Tiffany/Ginger Creek subbasin lends itself to varying land uses. The subbasin contains a low flat area (which is a part the Cedar River floodplain), a steeply sloping area above the flood plain, and a gently sloping plateau area at the top of the basin. Within the city limits, the lower flood plain area has been developed primarily into an industrial area. The steep slopes above this area have remained forested, as has much of the moderately sloping rise to the plateau. The plateau area, both near and beyond the city limits is nearly fully developed with single-family residential homes. Table 2-7 presents 1993 conditions and future peak annual flows for the subbasin. Hydrology - Future Conditions: The City of Renton land use plan for this subbasin indicates the possibility of additional low-density single-family residential areas in some lower areas and low- and medium-density single-family residential development in the forested areas. If this development occurs, increased downstream carrying capacity may be required. The Cedar River Report assumed that future land use will remain similar to the as-built conditions that existed in 1993 or at least slightly larger than the 1993 conditions flows. 2.4.3.7 Maplewood Creek Subbasin Maplewood Creek is a subbasin of the Cedar River that straddles the eastern Renton city limits. The creek collects flow from a plateau approximately 1,500 feet above its confluence with the Cedar River. The creek consists of two major tributaries that join on the plateau and flow down a steep ravine through the Maplewood Golf Course. The creek is a significant natural resource because of its use as recreation and open space in addition to providing fish and wildlife habitat. Substantial urban development has occurred in the plateau area of the basin, significantly impacting the natural drainage system. The creek is included in the state’s 2016 303(d) list for temperature at the confluence with Cedar River. The Maplewood Creek subbasin has been studied by both the City of Renton and King County. A detailed study of this area - the Comprehensive Storm Water Plan, Maplewood Creek Basin Plan (Parametrix, 1989) - was prepared for the City of Renton in October 1989. It analyzes current (then 1989), future and AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐28  future mitigated peak flows for the basin with current and expected land use scenarios. The future land  use in this study closely resembles the future land use presented in the City’s comprehensive plan, and  appears to provide good predictions of future flows. This study also identified existing and future  drainage problems and solutions, and recommended development criteria. In addition, King County  studied this subbasin as a part of the Cedar River Report in 1993. The resultant peak flow estimates are  different between the two documents as the 1989 estimates (Parametrix) were based upon an  event‐based model (HEC 1), whereas the 1993 plan (King County) used a continuous simulation model  (HSPF).  Hydrology ‐ 1993 Conditions: Table 2‐7 summarizes the 2‐, 10‐, 25‐, and 100‐year peak runoff estimates  for 1993 conditions based on the HSPF modeling.  Hydrology ‐ Future Conditions: The Renton Comprehensive Land Use Plan predicts a significant increase  in residential development in the subbasin. This increase will also result in a significant increase in runoff  (see Table 2‐7). Note that these increases are likely overstated, as they did not include regulatory  stormwater controls (detention) for new development.   2.4.3.8 Other Subbasins  Hydrology ‐ 1993 Conditions: Upstream from the Tiffany/Ginger Creek and Maplewood subbasins are  several subbasins that were modeled by King County and included in the Cedar River Report. Several of  these subbasins are within the UGB but partially outside of the city limits. These include the Molasses  Creek, Madsen Creek, Orting Hills, and Summerfield subbasins. All of these basins have significant  amounts of residential development among forested areas. Table 2‐7 presents predicted peak flows for  2‐, 10‐, 25‐ and 100‐year return periods for these subbasins, in addition to those discussed in previous  sections.  Hydrology ‐ Future Conditions: As urbanization and land development continue, increases in peak flows  will be experienced within the upper subbasins as a result of increased low‐density, residential  development.   2.4.4 WEST LAKE WASHINGTON BASIN  As previously mentioned, portions of the City in WRIA 8 that drain to Lake Washington include the West  Lake Washington basin (along with May Creek, the Cedar River, and the East Lake Washington Basin).  The overall Lake Washington basin includes most of the 692 square miles contained in WRIA 8 (Kerwin,  2001). The portion of the Lake Washington Basin within the City is approximately 21 square miles, or  roughly 3% of the basin.   The West Hill subbasin is the only subbasin in the West Lake Washington basin. This subbasin is partially  within the city limits. This highly urbanized subbasin is located along the southern shoreline of Lake  Washington and is part of WRIA 8. This basin straddles the city limits along the southwestern shoreline  of Lake Washington and includes a portion of unincorporated King County.   Runoff collection from this basin in characterized by natural channels and closed pipe systems. However,  virtually all of the runoff is delivered to the Black River Box Culvert, which discharges directly to Lake  Washington at the northwest end of the Renton Municipal Airport.  2.4.4.1 Basin Water Quality  The West Hill subbasin has been characterized in the Renton/Lake Washington Pollution Abatement  Program. The objectives of this project included improving the quality of runoff generated within the  AGENDA ITEM #

9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐30  On the valley floor, land use is primarily commercial and industrial, and contains multiple natural  wetlands. On the eastern upper plateau, land use is mostly residential with some commercial areas.  Significant surface water features include Panther Lake and Springbrook Creek (P‐1 Channel) and four of  its tributaries: Panther Creek, Rolling Hills Creek and Upper Springbrook and Mill Creeks, which join with  Springbrook Creek just south of the city limits. Although the industrial, commercial, and residential areas  contain piped surface water collection facilities, they all discharge to natural or modified channels. The  South Renton subbasin, however, is drained almost entirely by a closed pipe system that discharges  directly to the forebay for the BRPS.  Upland areas in the plateau of the basin are underlain by geologic deposits that force groundwater  horizontally and produce seeps in the shallow aquifer that support summer baseflow in Springbrook  Creek. The high amount of impervious surface area limits infiltration potential and redirects water  overland, causing high peak flow rates. Springbrook Creek (with a mean annual flow of 10 cfs)  contributes to water quality impairment, as proportionate to flow, in the mainstem Green/Duwamish  River (with a mean annual flow of 1,530 cfs).  2.4.5.1 Basin Water Quality  Black River is included in the state’s 2016 303(d) list for dissolved oxygen, bioassessment, and fecal  coliform bacteria at the confluence with Green River and Duwamish River. Water quality samples were  taken for the Black River Basin Water Quality Management Plan (Herrera, 1993b) and for the  Comprehensive Fisheries Assessment of the Mill Creek, Garrison Creek and Springbrook System (Harza,  1995). Copper and lead were found to be below detrimental levels, but zinc measurements ranged from  32 to 154 micrograms per liter in Springbrook Creek (Harza, 1995). Zinc levels at 10, 9, and 103  micrograms per liter adversely impact 7 gram rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, and chinook fry,  respectively (Harza, 1995). Water quality conditions in Springbrook Creek are poor with a Water Quality  Index (WQI) score of 36 out of 100 in water year 2018 (King County, 2020).   Springbrook Creek is listed on the state’s 2016 303(d) list for bioassessment, dissolved oxygen and fecal  coliform, and it is listed as “impaired” for temperature. Dissolved oxygen is usually highly correlated  with temperature and has become a major limiting factor for salmonids in this watershed. Temperature  increases can be attributed to impaired hydrologic and hydraulic functions of the basin, reduced flows to  baseflow, reduced flows from lack of summer snowmelt, and decreased forest shading, as well as  increased climate temperatures. Water quality testing of Mill, Garrison, and Springbrook Creeks was  conducted by Abbey Road Group in the fall (September) and spring (April) from fall 2014 through spring  2019. Results of this testing indicate increased temperatures, decreasing levels of dissolved oxygen,  decreasing pH, and elevated levels of fecal coliform bacteria at different sampling locations within all  three creeks.  Measurements of turbidity decreased slightly and all TSS and biochemical oxygen demand  (BOD) samples were within the acceptable range.  2.4.5.2 Basin Fish Habitat  Juvenile coho, chum, winter steelhead, and cutthroat have been captured at numerous locations  throughout the subbasin (Harza, 1995) and utilize habitat primarily for migration. Although Springbrook  Creek has poor fish habitat, there are upper reaches of some of the tributaries to Springbrook Creek that  do provide good fish habitat. As recently as 2011, adult chinook have been observed spawning in Upper  Springbrook Creek. The creek has been highly modified and is choked with invasive reed canary grass  and has little instream habitat structures and no large woody debris. The BRPS is a partial fish passage  barrier, but the combination of a fish ladder and a fishway chute aids salmonids in upstream passage.  Fish migrating downstream are diverted around the pumps using an air‐lift pump to raise them to the  AGENDA ITEM #

9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐32  were mapped with flood depths up to 12 feet. FEMA developed the revised maps without conducting  any detailed hydraulic analysis and simply extended the elevation of the floodplain within the main  channel of the Green River across the valley floor.  King County and Green River valley cities including Renton, Kent, Tukwila and Auburn disagreed with the  methodology that FEMA used to develop the updated maps. In response, the County retained  Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, Inc. to develop a model to predict flooding in the Green River valley  based on multiple levee failure scenarios. The resulting maps show significantly less area in the  floodplain. Areas flooded to a depth of 12 feet based on the revised FEMA maps were shown flooded to  a depth of 6 feet in the maps. The County maps became available to the public for review and comment  in November 2010 in preparation for FEMA approval and subsequent adoption in 2011. However, in the  spring of 2011, FEMA announced a policy change regarding non‐certified levees, which has put the  adoption of the revised DFIRM for the Green River Valley on hold. In December 2011, FEMA developed a  proposed revised policy that included new methodologies to better reflect the true flood risk of  non‐accredited levees on the floodplain. FEMA completed the public review/comment processes in  2013 and as a result, developed analysis and mapping procedures for non‐accredited Levee Systems also  known as Levee Analysis and Mapping Procedure (LAMP).   Non‐accredited levee systems are those “that do not meet the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)  regulatory requirements of 44 CFR 65.10… and that are not shown on a FIRM as reducing the base flood  hazard” (FEMA, 2018). Many non‐accredited levee systems on the Green River are located in the City of  Kent. Some of these levees also provide flood protection for parts of Renton. In 2010, Kent began an  effort to certify and/or reconstruct up to 12 miles of levees at a cost of approximately $100M. Once the  levees are certified, the intent is for FEMA to issue new DFIRM that show the Cities of Kent and Renton  as protected by levees and outside the 100‐year floodplain. In addition to the various levee projects  occurring in Kent, the KCFCD finalized the scoping summary report for the Lower Green River Corridor  Flood Hazard Management Plan as a part of the Environmental Impact Study (EIS) associated with the  plan in June of 2019. The purpose of this plan is to implement an integrated long‐term approach to  reduce flood risk within the Lower Green River Corridor, which extends into the southwestern portion of  Renton. The plan is intended to reduce flood risk while balancing other important basin objectives such  as improving fish habitat and supporting the economic prosperity of the region. Communication and  coordination between the City of Renton and the KCFCD has been ongoing throughout the preliminary  stages of formulating the Flood Hazard Management Plan.  2.4.5.4  Howard Hanson Dam and Potential Flooding from Green River   Although now operating at full capacity, concerns over reduced storage capacity due to seepage  problems at the Howard Hanson Dam and potential flooding of the Green River Valley caused the City to  expend significant resources in flood preparedness between 2009 and 2011. In 2009, USACE notified the  City of Renton and other Green River Valley cities of several sinkholes that had formed in the right  embankment of the Howard Hanson Dam after a significant rain event in January 2009. During the  event, USACE decided to hold back water in the dam to prevent downstream flooding of the Green River  Valley. The formation of the sink holes as well as sediment laden water that was observed flowing from  the dam’s drainage tunnels, indicating seepage through the material in the right embankment, led  USACE engineers to believe the right embankment could fail.   To minimize risk of failure after this event, USACE decided they would need to reduce storage capacity,  which could result in the release of more water than usual from the dam during extreme rain events and  result in a higher risk of flooding in parts of the City in the Green River valley. In coordination with the  Corps, King County, and other valley cities, the City implemented pre‐disaster preparations and  AGENDA ITEM #

These flows reflect a future “conveyance” event. There is also a “storage” event that reflects pumping limitations on the BRPS. For more information, see ESGRWP Supplement (R. W. Beck, 2007). 2. Flows were estimated for future conditions only. 3. Flows are based on frequency analysis performed on Springbrook Creek at the BRPS. Individual frequency analyses have not been done. 4. Flows are higher because this event coincides with high flows in the Green, forcing BRPS to operate at a reduced rate, and thus affecting the peak rate. 5. Peak flows for the 2-year recurrence interval were not available. 6. A subsequent report prepared by GHD modeled the 25-year future condition flow at 175.0 (Scenario 2A).

9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  2‐35  Hydrology ‐ Future Conditions: In the future, this subbasin is expected to continue to be developed as a  residential area, with some areas being developed as commercial development and multifamily housing.  The estimated future EIA is 23%, an increase of 46 acres, with most of the conversion occurring outside  the City (R. W. Beck, 2007).   2.4.5.8 Panther Creek Subbasin  The Panther Creek subbasin straddles the Renton city limits. Only a small, lower portion of the subbasin  is within the city limits, between the Valley and Rolling Hills subbasins. This portion of the subbasin  contains a long, narrow wetland area that parallels SR 167, known as the Panther Creek Wetland. This  wetland extends along the east side of SR 167 from near I‐405 at the north to Panther Creek (near S  37th Street) at the south. The SW 23rd Street drainage channel originates at the Panther Creek Wetland.  Most of the Renton portion of the subbasin is downstream, within the “P3” and “P4” subbasins, as  analyzed by the ESGRWP (R. W. Beck, 1997a).  Hydrology ‐ 2007 Conditions: This subbasin is approximately 1,700 acres, with 372 acres of EIA  (R. W. Beck, 2007).  The peak flows for 2007 conditions from this subbasin are presented in Table 2‐9.   Hydrology ‐ Future Conditions: Most of the future development will include converting open space to  single‐family residences. The City of Renton Comprehensive Plan (2015) has zoned the entire area as  residential, except for commercial mixed used and areas designated as environmentally sensitive. It is  estimated that an additional 249 acres of EIA will exist in the future, reflecting a 67% increase in  impervious area (R. W. Beck, 2007). This growth is expected to be evenly distributed between the City  portion of the basin and the upper plateau in Kent.  The future predicted peak flows for the basin, presented in Table 2‐9, show large increases for frequent  storm events and smaller increases for rare events. The increases would be larger, but the flows pass  through the large Panther Creek Wetland, which helps attenuate storm peaks.  2.4.5.9 Rolling Hills Subbasin  The Rolling Hills subbasin is similar geographically to the adjacent Tiffany/Ginger Creek subbasin,  although flows from this subbasin go west to Panther Creek and the BRPS rather than north to the Cedar  River. The Rolling Hills subbasin contains a small stretch of low‐lying areas in the Green River valley  floor, a moderate to steeply sloping region above the valley, with two incised canyons, and a gentler  sloping plateau area at the top of the basin. The lower flat area has been developed into a  commercial‐industrial belt and I‐405 transportation corridor. The slopes above most of this area have  been developed into multifamily housing units and single‐family homes except for the steeply sloping  canyons. Much of the upper portion of the basin has also been developed into single‐family homes.   Rolling Hills Creek is routed under I‐405 via a parallel pipe system and discharges into the Panther Creek  Wetland and a channel that flows south along the east side of SR‐167. The channel enters a box culvert  that conveys flows west under SR‐167. This culvert connects to a pipe system along SW 19th Street,  which conveys flow west until it discharges into Springbrook Creek. During high‐flow periods, the  channel upstream from the SR‐167 box culvert can overtop and spill out into the Panther Creek  Wetland.  Hydrology ‐ 2007 Conditions: This subbasin is approximately 926 acres, with 293 acres of EIA  (R. W. Beck, 2007). Predicted 2007 condition peak flows are presented in Table 2‐9.   AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) DRAINAGE BASIN AND SERVICE AREAS O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 2-36 Hydrology - Future Conditions: The Rolling Hills subbasin will remain in a similar land use pattern to what existed in 2006 according to the City of Renton Comprehensive Plan (2006). The estimated future EIA is 50%. This reflects an additional 167 acres of EIA (R. W. Beck, 2007). Table 2-9 presents the expected changes in peak flows. 2.4.5.10 Valley Subbasin The Valley subbasin is a flat part of the Green River Valley. Its dominant drainage feature is Springbrook Creek, which flows south to north and discharges into the BRPS forebay. While flowing through this subbasin, Springbrook Creek joins with Panther Creek, at SW 23rd Street; Rolling Hills Creek, at SW 19th Street; and the SW 7th system. Water surface elevations in Valley subbasin are impacted by peak flows, storage capacity of the adjacent wetlands; the conveyance capacity of the stream channels, culvert crossings, and bridges; and the operation of BRPS, which depends on the flow in the Green River. Most of the open land is cleared flat lowland, with scattered wetland areas. The developed area is over 90 percent commercial or industrial, with much of development large warehouse type structures. Hydrology - 2007 Conditions: Flows in this subbasin include flows from Garrison Creek, Mill Creek, Panther Creek, Springbrook Creek, and the Rolling Hills subbasin, which all converge within the Valley subbasin. Table 2-9 presents estimated peak flows at various locations in the valley. Hydrology - Future Conditions: The dominant system in this subbasin, Springbrook Creek, will be subject to higher peak flows in the future due to upstream development in both Renton and Kent. Peak flow increases are greater for the smaller events such as the 2-year compared to projected flow increases for the more rare events. This is due to the significant storage attenuation for the more severe flood events provided by the valley wetlands. 2.4.6 SOOS CREEK BASIN The Soos Creek Basin is a large basin that lies between the Cedar River and Black River basins and is tributary to the Green River, which places it in WRIA 9. A portion of the basin which includes Big Soos Creek is located in the very southeast edge of the present Renton city limits, as shown in Figure 2-1, and only 17 acres of the basin are actually within the City. A larger portion of the basin is located within the UGB; however, the Big Soos Creek flows in a southerly direction, away from the current city boundaries, and therefore, flow changes within Big Soos Creek are not likely to impact the City. Development in the upper portion of the basin is almost entirely single-family and multifamily residential with a fairly large area of the basin identified as wetlands and related habitat. In addition, floodplains are found in the Soos Creek Basin. 2.4.6.1 Basin Water Quality No water quality data was available within the city limits in the uppermost portion of the basin. River-mile 10.5 is as far upstream as monitoring has been conducted. According to a Habitat Limiting Factors and Reconnaissance Assessment Report prepared for WRIA 9 (King County, 2000), dissolved oxygen in Big Soos Creek was observed to be below rearing and incubation standards in some measurements; many of the excursions occurred during defined salmon incubation periods. Big Soos Creek, downstream of the City jurisdictional limits, is on the state’s 2016 303(d) list for dissolved oxygen and bacteria.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 3-5  Administrative Services Department. As shown in Table 3-1, there is significant coordination between Utility and these departments. These interactions are further described below. Some examples include: Utility supporting the Community & Economic Development Department to address surface water issues relating to large master planning areas or annexations, assisting with plan review on large projects, assisting in public education and involvement associated with stormwater, coordinating with the Maintenance Service Division to ensure that maintenance programs and frequencies are meeting regulatory requirements, and coordinating with the Finance and Information Services Department associated with utility billing. There are a total of 25.15 full-time employee (FTE) surface water positions as of December 2020. Sections 3.2 through 3.4 describe the surface water program elements performed within various Utility programs. Section 3.5 describes management activities of the Utility. Section 3.6 provides a summary including a cost breakdown between the various programs and the number of hours within each. The hours are based on the 2015-2019 actual timesheet data and do not include the unfilled positions or time off work. 3.2 ENGINEERING, PLANNING, COMPLIANCE, AND COORDINATION Utility conducts several work activities related to engineering, planning, compliance, and coordination. These work elements are often done in collaboration with other City Departments or work groups and sometimes with outside organizations. The following work elements comprise the engineering, planning, compliance, and coordination category:  Capital Projects  Planning  Plan review  Technical assistance and coordination  Coordination with other jurisdictions/agencies  Regulatory compliance  Public education and involvement  Storm system inventory  Drainage problem inventory  Flood hazard monitoring and response  Community Rating System (CRS) 3.2.1 CAPITAL PROJECTS A significant amount of the Utility Engineering Section’s time is spent in the design and construction management of capital improvements. Engineering staff are responsible for contract management for engineering design and construction, and development of capital project solutions to surface and stormwater system problems. Additionally, small engineering projects are sometimes designed in-house AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CURRENT SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 3-6 by engineering staff depending on the size and complexity of the project. Additional capital projects activities are construction inspection on the surface water component of City projects completed by the Development Services Department, and capital purchases funded from the Maintenance Services Division. 3.2.2 PLANNING Planning activities include CIP planning and stormwater grant applications. Utility also provides assistance with long-range plans such as the City Comprehensive Plan, area plans, master plans, large annexations, and providing solutions to existing and future surface water management problems. Planning expenses are incurred in the Utility Engineering Section when staff time is charged to planning activities. 3.2.3 PLAN REVIEW Plan review for surface and stormwater-related components of new development within the city limits is completed by staff in the Planning Division, with assistance on an as-needed basis from the Utility Engineering Section. Plan review may include technical assistance related to compliance with City surface water codes and drainage manual. 3.2.4 TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND COORDINATION Internal technical assistance is provided by the Utility Engineering Section to assist and coordinate with other City departments. The assistance may include technical support related to surface water management in other City Departments, Divisions, and Sections. Transportation Services and Community Services (Parks Division) also often request surface water technical assistance to remedy problems. Assistance includes internal meetings to discuss WSDOT Coordination, FEMA disaster assistance related to surface water issues, and regional disaster preparation. External technical assistance is also provided to public-private forums such as the Cedar River Council and WRIA 8 and WRIA 9 Forums and associated committees, and the governmental organization, King County Drainage District No. 1. This type of assistance is limited to as-needed customer service efforts completed by the Utility Engineering Section and the Maintenance Services Division. 3.2.5 COORDINATION WITH OTHER JURISDICTIONS/A GENCIES Utility Engineering Section staff routinely coordinate with outside jurisdictions on activities including, WRIA 8 and 9 planning, coordination with King County for Flood Hazard Management and the KCFCD, and support related to WSDOT activities. Staff also coordinate with FEMA and USACE on emergency response, post-flood events to repair facilities, and flood hazard reduction associated with the Green and Cedar Rivers. Because of shared borders with the cities of Kent, Tukwila, and Newcastle, the City routinely works with these neighboring jurisdictions to address flooding, water quality, and habitat issues. A more detailed discussion of City coordination efforts with WSDOT and the KCFCD is included in Section 5. The City also collaborates with local organizations including the Cedar River Council (CRC) and special purpose districts, such as King County Drainage District No. 1 (District). The CRC is a group of stakeholders who participate in monthly discussions to share opinions and concerns about issues regarding the health of the Cedar River. CRC membership cultivates collaboration AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CURRENT SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 3-7 among a variety of citizens, including basin residents and representatives of community groups, businesses, and local, state, federal, and tribal governments. The District was formed in the early 1900s for the specific purpose of maintaining drainage ditches and canals that were created to support the farming community located in the Green River Valley primarily within the jurisdictions of Kent and Renton. Within Renton, the District maintains a 40-foot right-of-way along Springbrook Creek between SW 43rd Street and the Black River Pump Station. The District collects an ad valorem tax on properties in the valley and uses the revenue to provide maintenance of the Springbrook Creek right-of-way and provide grant money for local jurisdictions to use for flood control improvements along the creek. 3.2.6 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE Utility regulatory activities include development of new city surface water codes and/or design guidelines (e.g., Surface Water Design Manual), and compliance with the municipal NPDES permitting requirements, and city, state, and federal laws and ordinances. Section 4 of this Plan describes surface and stormwater regulatory requirements. 3.2.7 PUBLIC EDUCATION AND INVOLVEMENT Public education and involvement includes providing surface water public education literature through the Customer Services counter, discussing runoff codes with developers, and meeting with the public at Council Utilities Committees. Utility also maintains website information related to NPDES Permit requirements, illicit discharges and spill reporting, surface water maintenance recommendations, flooding emergencies information, watersheds, car washing, storm drain marking, and salmon recovery activities. Utility provides an education and outreach program and public involvement and participation program to meet the NPDES Permit requirements. Utility staff also occasionally present to students when engaged by schools or teachers. 3.2.8 STORM SYSTEM INVENTORY The Utility continually updates its storm system inventory to ensure accurate GIS mapping to improve customer service to the public, developers, engineers, and other City departments. Updating the storm system inventory mapping is an activity conducted within the Utility Engineering and Maintenance Services Surface Water Section. Maintenance staff provides GPS coordinates and redlines maps for Utility Engineering staff to update in GIS. 3.2.9 DRAINAGE PROBLEM INVENTORY Drainage complaints are jointly addressed by Utility Engineering Section staff and Surface Water Maintenance staff. Complaints originate from a variety of sources, including city residents, businesses, Maintenance Services, and other City departments. Usually, complaints are investigated, and an action item, such as a work order, may be initiated as a result of the complaint. Otherwise, the complaint is tracked and logged with a description of how it was handled. 3.2.10 FLOOD HAZARD MONITORING AND RESPONSE This activity involves flood monitoring, pre-flood preparation, post-flooding recovery and repairs, communicating with internal and external groups, and assisting in emergency response during floods. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CURRENT SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 3-8 Flood hazard response varies depending on the severity of storm events from year to year and the potential to result in flooding, particularly on the City’s large rivers: the Cedar and the Green. Notable flood events occurred in January 2009, December 2015, December 2019, and February 2020. Potential flooding of the Green River due to problems with the Howard Hanson Dam is discussed in Section 2.4.5.4. Part of this activity involves coordinating with other agencies such as the KCFCD, as discussed above in Section 3.2.5. 3.2.11 COMMUNITY RATING SYSTEM (CRS) The Community Rating System (CRS) is a program within FEMA’s NFIP. NFIP provides property owners access to federally backed flood insurance. Any property that is financed through a federal loan is required to have flood insurance if the property is located in the FEMA regulated floodplain. NFIP provides property owners flood insurance that may not be otherwise available through the private insurance market. Additionally, where private insurance is available, it is generally very expensive, and NFIP provides flood insurance at a discounted rate compared to private insurance. Currently, the City has a rating of 5 out of 10, which allows for a 25% discount in federal flood insurance. CRS is a voluntary incentive program that recognizes communities that implement floodplain management practices that exceed the federal minimum requirements of the NFIP to provide protection from flooding. By implementing policies and practices that reduce flood risk, the City receives credits the can be used to reduce flood insurance premiums for property owners. These reduced premiums reflect the reduced flood risk resulting from the City’s efforts toward reducing flood damage to insurable properties. Utility Engineering Section staff are responsible for implementing the CRS program in Renton. 3.3 INSPECTION, OPERATIONS, AND MAINTENANCE Inspection, operations, and maintenance is generally completed by the Maintenance Services Division in Public Works in coordination with Utility Engineering Section staff. Current Maintenance Services Division staffing for surface water O&M is 16.24 FTEs, including the Surface Water Maintenance Manager and Supervisor. The following are surface water work activities in the inspection, operations and maintenance category:  Illicit discharge and detection elimination  Inspection  Cleaning  Repairs  Construction  Emergency response/customer service  Vegetation Control for water, surface water, and wastewater facilities and street rights-of way Table 3-2 summarizes the surface water infrastructure that the Maintenance Services Division is responsible for inspecting and/or maintaining.

Manage development activities to protect environmental quality and promote diversity of  species and habitat within the City.  2. Ensure that activities in or affecting critical areas do not threaten public safety, cause  nuisances, or destroy or degrade critical area functions and values.  3. Prevent the loss of critical area acreage and functions and strive for a net gain over present  conditions through restoration where feasible.  4. Assist or further the implementation of the policies of the Growth Management Act, the  State Environmental Policy Act, and the City Comprehensive Plan.  5. Provide City officials with information to evaluate, approve, condition, or deny public or  private development proposals with regard to critical area impacts.  6. Protect the public life, health, safety, welfare, and property by minimizing and managing the  adverse environmental impacts of development within and abutting critical areas.  7. Protect the public from:   Avoidable monetary losses due to maintenance and replacement of public facilities  and utilities, property damage, public mitigation of avoidable impacts, and public  emergency rescue and relief operations.   Potential litigation on improper construction practices occurring in critical areas.  8. Reduce the potential for damage to life and property from abandoned coal mines and  return the land to productive uses.  9. Maintain, to the extent practicable, a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and  development of areas of flood hazard areas to minimize future flood blight areas.  10. Protect riparian habitat to provide for bank and channel stability, sustained water supply,  flood storage, recruitment of woody debris, leaf litter, nutrients, sediment and pollutant  filtering, shade, shelter, and other functions that are important to both fish and wildlife.  This section of the RMC includes regulations that apply to wellhead protection, flood hazards, geologic  hazards, habitat conservation, wetlands, streams, and lakes. Management of stormwater requires  understanding potential impacts adjacent to or within critical areas because of the connection of  stormwater runoff to lakes, streams, groundwater, and wetlands, and linear infrastructure that  AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND CITY POLICIES O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  4‐3  intersects with critical areas features. Stormwater‐related projects and activities in these areas may  require a review, unless exempt.  4.3.2 RMC 4‐3‐090 SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM REGULATIONS  RMC 4‐3‐090 adopts the Shoreline Master Program (SMP). The City’s SMP regulations are in accordance  with the Washington State Shoreline Management Act (SMA), as governed by RCW 90.58. and  Washington Administrative Code (WAC) WAC 173‐26. The purpose of the SMA is to manage the  shoreline for long‐term benefit by preserving ecology and natural character and increasing recreational  opportunities and public access. Uses that alter natural character, but are dependent upon the shoreline  are also recognized as an important part of the SMP.   The City has several shorelines subject to the SMP: the Cedar River, Lake Washington, Springbrook  Creek, Black River, and May Creek. Shoreline planning and regulations include the water body as well as  the lands within 200 feet of the ordinary high water mark (OHWM) or within 200 feet of floodways,  whichever is greater. Additionally, contiguous floodplain areas and all marshes, bogs, swamps, and river  deltas associated with streams, lakes, and tidal waters that are subject to the provisions of the State  Shoreline Management Act are included in the jurisdictional areas.   The City conducts a periodic review of its SMP every eight years, in accordance with the SMA, to ensure  that the SMP is consistent and up‐to‐date with applicable laws and regulations, City goals and policies,  and addresses changed or unique circumstances in the City.  Each shoreline has unique qualities that make it valuable, and Shorelines of Statewide Significance are of  particular importance. For the City, this includes Lake Washington and the Green River Shoreline.  Although the Green River is not within City limits, portions of the two hundred foot shoreline jurisdiction  are within the City Limits. The shorelines for these two water bodies comprise approximately 5.8 miles  of the shorelines of the state that are regulated by the City. Preference is, therefore, given to the  following uses in descending order of priority for Shorelines of Statewide Significance as established by  RCW 90.58.020:  1. Recognize and protect the statewide interest over local interest;  2. Preserve the natural character of the shoreline;  3. Result in long‐term over short‐term benefit;   4. Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline;   5. Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the shorelines;   6. Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shoreline;  7. Provide for any other element as defined in RCW 90.58.100, deemed appropriate or  necessary.  Approximately 18 miles of shoreline in the City fall under the jurisdiction of the SMA. These shorelines  are considered an extremely valuable resource not only to the City, but also to the region:   Cedar River   Green River (Portions of the 200‐ft shoreline jurisdiction within City limits)   Lake Washington  AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND CITY POLICIES O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC.  B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE  4‐4   May Creek from the intersection of May Creek and NE 31st Street in the southeast quarter  of the southeast quarter of Section 32‐24‐5E WM.    Springbrook Creek from the Black River on the north to SW 43rd Street on the south.    Black River  The SMP and SMA are typical considerations when stormwater infrastructure projects have the  potential to affect shoreline uses.  4.3.3 RMC 4‐4‐030 DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES AND REGULATIONS – GENERAL   RMC 4‐4‐030 provides guidance to the Development Services Division and the Hearing Examiner for  various land use recommendations and decisions. Stormwater‐related provisions include requirements  for temporary erosion and sediment control, hydroseeding of graded areas, and the adoption by  reference of this Plan and other City Plans and Regulations.  4.3.4 RMC 4‐4‐060 GRADING, EXCAVATION, AND MINING REGULATIONS  The purposes of RMC 4‐4‐060 as outlined in the RMC in Section A are to:  1. Provide a means of regulating mining, excavation, and grading to promote the health,  safety, morals, general welfare, and aesthetics in the City.  2. Promote the progressive rehabilitation of mining, excavation, and grading sites to a suitable  new use.  3. Protect those areas and uses in the vicinity of mining, excavation, and grading activities  against detrimental effects.   4. Promote safe, economic, systematic, and uninterrupted mining, excavation, and grading  activities within the City.   5. Minimize adverse stormwater impacts generated by the removal of vegetation and  alteration of landform to comply with the requirements of the NPDES Phase II Municipal  Stormwater Permit.  6. Protect water quality from the adverse impact associated with erosion and sedimentation in  order to comply with the requirements of the NPDES Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit.  (Ord. 5526, 2‐1‐2010).  This code is intended to reduce potential deleterious effects of grading, excavation, and mining on  surface water quality and provides City staff with tools for review, inspection, and enforcement of code  violations. Staff in the Community and Economic Development Division are primarily responsible for  activities related to grading, excavation, and mining. Utility staff review soil and geotechnical reports for  compliance with this regulation.  4.3.5 RMC 4‐6‐030 DRAINAGE (SURFACE WATER ) STANDARDS   RMC 4‐6‐030 contains the City’s Drainage Standards. The following is the language from the RMC,  Section A. Purpose:  1.

It shall also be the purpose of this Section to reduce flooding, erosion, and sedimentation; prevent and mitigate habitat loss; enhance groundwater recharge; and prevent water quality degradation through permit review, construction inspection, enforcement, and maintenance of drainage facilities/systems. 3. It shall also be the purpose of this Section to regulate the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) regarding the contribution of pollutants, consisting of any material other than stormwater, including but not limited to illicit discharges, illicit connections and/or dumping into any storm drain system, including surface and/or groundwater throughout the City that would adversely impact surface and groundwater quality of the City and the State of Washington, in order to comply with requirements of the NPDES Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit. 4. It shall also be the purpose of this Section to create attractive and functional drainage facilities that do not reduce public safety. (Ord. 5526, 2-1-2010; Ord. 5749, 1-12-2015) The Administrator of the Public Works Department is responsible for the general administration and coordination of this RMC section. This includes responsibility for reviewing drainage plans submitted in accordance with this RMC section. This Section of the RMC adopts the 2016 King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) as amended by the City of Renton Amendments by reference. In February 2010, the City adopted the 2009 KCSWDM with City Amendments. These amendments to the 2009 KCSWDM are carried over to the current 2016 KCSWDM. The amendments were tailored to meet the specific needs of the City of Renton by providing the exceptions, modifications and additions to the King County Manual. One important change to the 2009 KCSWDM was the inclusion of a modified Flow Control Map that shows a significant area of the City, including the Renton valley, downtown, and areas east of I-405 mapped as a Peak Rate Flow Control standard matching existing site conditions. This is a significant deviation from the County’s 2009 flow control map which shows all areas mapped as Flow Control Duration Standard matching forested conditions. 4.3.6 CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN The first City of Renton Comprehensive Plan was developed in 1990 to meet the requirements of the State Growth Management Act (GMA). Pursuant to Engrossed Substitute House Bill (ESHB) 2342, Renton is required to review and, if needed, revise its comprehensive plan and development regulations by June 30, 2024, and every eight years thereafter. The most recent version was adopted in 2015. The City’s Comprehensive Plan incorporates a number of objectives and policies relevant to surface water resources, which are described in Section 4.7 of this Plan. In addition to these objectives and policies, the greatest impact of the City’s Comprehensive Plan on surface water systems and resources comes from its land use element, which establishes the level of development density throughout the City. Greater development densities result in higher percentages of impervious area, which impact water quality, fish habitat, and the rate and volume of runoff. 4.4 STATE REGULATIONS State regulations that govern activities conducted by Utility are described in this Section.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 4-7 4.4.3 RCW 86.16 FLOOD PLAIN MANAGEMENT Chapter 86.16 RCW Flood Plain Management establishes statewide authority through regulations promulgated by Ecology for coordinating the floodplain management regulation elements of the NFIP. Under Chapter 173-158 WAC, Ecology requires local governments to adopt and administer regulatory programs compliant with the minimum standards of the NFIP. Ecology provides technical assistance to local governments for both identifying the location of the 100-year (base) floodplain and in administering their floodplain management ordinances. Ecology also establishes land management criteria in the base floodplain area by adopting the federal standards and definitions contained in 44 CFR, Parts 59 and 60, as minimum state standards. Ecology has approval authority over local floodplain management ordinances. Federal regulations allow residential and nonresidential development in the floodplain if the proponent demonstrates that the project is constructed to be one foot above the 100-year base flood elevation as determined by a flood insurance study. Ecology will disapprove an ordinance if minimum federal criteria for enrollment in NFIP or state regulations on development in the floodplain are not met. State regulations allow only for repair, reconstruction, or improvements of existing residential structures within the floodplain that do not increase the ground floor area and that cost less than 50% of the market value of the existing structure. The City’s first Flood Insurance Study and FIRMs were published in May 1981 and have been updated in May 1995 and again in 2020. The City participates in the Community Rating System (CRS), and as a result it receives discounts on flood insurance. Engaging in the following activities gives the City CRS credits: • Maintaining elevation certificates on all new and substantially improved buildings in the Special Flood Hazard Area. • Maintaining elevation certificate data in computer format. • Making copies of elevation certificates on newer properties available at the CRS Coordinator’s office. • Providing information on FIRMs and the flood insurance purchase requirement to inquirers and publishing a document that tells lenders, insurance agents, and real estate agents. • Informing insurance agents about the availability of flood certificates. • Keeping a log of FIRM requests and responses. • Keeping the City’s FIRM updated and maintaining old copies of the FIRM. • Maintaining flood risk reduction materials in the public library. • Enforcing the floodplain management provisions of municipal zoning, subdivision, and building code ordinances. • Enforcing the current municipal building code. • Using and updating the City’s digital mapping system. • Maintaining the City’s elevation reference marks. • Enforcing the stormwater management provisions of municipal zoning, subdivision, and building code ordinances for new developments in the watershed.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 4-10 of the proposed project. Any conditions of Ecology’s certification become conditions of the federal Section 404 permit. The federal agency cannot issue its permit until the certification is approved, conditioned, or waived by the state. If the state denies a certification, an individual Section 401 certification is required for activities covered by a nationwide permit (ORIA, 2020). 4.4.8 SECTION 402 – NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM Section 402 of the CWA states that pollutants may not be discharged directly to surface waters unless this is done under a NPDES permit. In Washington, authority to issue permits and oversee compliance has been delegated to Ecology by the EPA. Ecology asserts requirements and a schedule for compliance. The compliance schedule is never longer than the term of the permit. Permits are required to be renewed at least every five years, and Ecology is responsible for writing new permits. The NPDES program, as it relates to precipitation-induced runoff (considered a point source), provides permits for multiple activities that could impact water quality. These include but are not limited to:  Industrial Activities  Operating an MS4  Construction Activities Utility operates its stormwater program under its NPDES Permit. The most recent permit was issued on July 1, 2019 and became effective on August 1, 2019. The City has been operating under the NPDES Permit since 2007. Continued City NPDES Permit coverage requires compliance with special and general conditions outlined in the 2019 permit. These include the continuation of conditions familiar to Renton from the 2013 Permit and new conditions that must be implemented by the prescribed permit schedule. A summary of Renton’s activities to meet permit compliance is available in the City’s current Stormwater Management Program Plan. New regulatory requirements and resource needs are described in a regulatory memorandum (Appendix D) and in Section 5. Key changes, from the previous permit to new permit beginning in August 2019, are described below. A summary of resource needs and deadlines for these NPDES changes is provided in Section 5, Table 5-1. 4.4.8.1 Long-Range Planning The new permit requires a review of how stormwater management needs and protection/improvement of receiving water health are informing long-term plans. 4.4.8.2 Low Impact Development The permit requires continuation of previous permit requirements to make Low Impact Development (LID) the preferred and commonly-used approach to site development and require LID Principles and BMPs in local development codes, rules, standards, or other enforceable documents. The permit requires an annual assessment and documentation of newly identified barriers to implementation of LID Principles or BMPs and measures developed to address the barriers. 4.4.8.3 Watershed Planning The new permit requires the City to evaluate watershed conditions and prioritize its watersheds based on receiving water conditions and ability to affect change with stormwater management actions. A stormwater management action plan must be developed for a high priority catchment that outlines strategies and projects to improve watershed conditions.

It requires enforceable documents or ordinances to require source control BMPs for pollutant generating surfaces, an inventory of potential pollutant generating sites, an inspection program, enforcement policy, and staff training. 4.5 FEDERAL REGULATIONS 4.5.1 NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT The goals of NEPA are to protect, restore, and enhance the environment. NEPA documentation requirements apply to all activities with a federal nexus, (i.e., generally either federally funded or needing federal permits). NEPA requirements are: adequately describe the environmental ramifications of proposed actions, fully disclose to the public proposed federal actions and provide a mechanism for public input to federal decision-making, prepare environmental impact statements, and consider alternatives and mitigation for every major action (usually construction projects) that would significantly affect the quality of the human environment. The provisions for ensuring that agencies follow NEPA are in the Council for Environmental Quality (CEQ) provisions for implementation (43 CFR 1500-1508). 4.5.2 CLEAN WATER ACT The CWA includes four sections that affect the City’s surface water program. They are: • Section 303(d) • Section 401 • Section 402 – NPDES • Section 404 As described previously in Section 4.4.5, the Clean Water Act is a federal regulation that establishes statewide authority through regulations promulgated by Ecology for Sections 303(d), 401 and 402 (RCW 90.48.260). These three sections are described in Sections 4.4.6 through 4.4.8. Section 404 is not administered by the state, and is described as follows. 4.5.3 SECTION 404 Section 404 pertains to activities involved with filling waters of the United States. The water in question is usually a wetland or classified stream. A wetland is defined as “areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil” (33 CFR 328.3 [c][16]). USACE has regulatory authority to administer a permit program that results in no net loss of these waters of the United States. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND CITY POLICIES O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 4-12 When evaluating activities that are regulated by Section 404, the emphasis is to look at alternatives that avoid, then minimize, then compensate for any wetland impacts. Unavoidable impacts are compensated for by a system of replacement ratios that vary depending on the quality of wetlands being impacted. 4.5.4 ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT Puget Sound and its tributary streams in the vicinity of the City provide habitat, or may provide habitat, for aquatic species listed as threatened or endangered under ESA. The ESA prohibits killing or harming an endangered species in any way, including significant modification of critical habitat for that species. Section 7 of the Act is the interagency cooperation mechanism by which Federal agencies ensure that the actions they take or fund do not jeopardize the existence of any listed species. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries is responsible for marine species. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is responsible for resident aquatic species. In June 2000, NOAA Fisheries adopted a rule prohibiting the “take” (which includes harassing, harming, pursuing, hunting, shooting, wounding, killing, trapping, or collecting; or attempting any of these things) of 14 groups of salmon and steelhead listed as threatened under the ESA. Chinook salmon in Puget Sound and its tributaries (including the Green River) were federally listed as threatened species by the NOAA Fisheries in May 1999 (NOAA, 1999). Bull trout in Lake Washington and the Green River were listed as threatened species by USFWS in December 1999 (USFWS, 1999). NOAA federally listed steelhead as a threatened species in June 2007 (NOAA, 2007). Coho salmon are currently a species of concern in the Puget Sound (NOAA, 2006). These listings directly affect City practices. For instance, the City’s routine road maintenance program must be approved by NOAA Fisheries as being consistent with the conservation of listed salmonids’ habitat by contributing to the attainment and maintenance of properly functioning condition. If a project has a federal nexus (i.e., federal permit or federal funding), a Biological Assessment (BA), also known as a Biological Evaluation (BE),must be performed to determine what, if any, effects the project or action may have on a listed species (50 CFR 402.12). The purpose of a BA/BE is to review the biological requirements of a listed species to determine potential effects of the project or action on those species (50 CFR 402.12). After the consultation process is complete, the USFWS or NOAA Fisheries will issue a Biological Opinion (BO) (50 CFR 402.15). Formal consultation may last up to 90 days with the Services having 45 days after consultation to write the opinion. The BO will determine if the project or action would result in “jeopardy” or the destruction or modification of critical habitat (50 CFR 402.14[h][3]). If a project or action is determined to affect a species that has been proposed for listing, the federal lead agency must complete an informal consultation with either the USFWS or NOAA Fisheries, but the results of the subsequent conference are non-binding. NOAA Fisheries requires the City to participate in recovery activities for listed species. Regional (Puget Sound area) recovery activities are supplemented by proactive interlocal agreements, such as WRIA-level habitat conservation planning. The City facilitates ESA compliance at the local level by incorporating it into its critical areas ordinance (CAO). For example:  The presence of a listed species is sufficient to classify a wetland as Category 1 (RMC 4-3-050[G][9][c][i]).  The presence of listed species may be used as justification to enact enlarged wetland buffers on a case-by-case basis (RMC 4-3-050[G][9][d][iv]).

Under Chapter 173 158 WAC, Ecology requires local governments to adopt and administer regulatory programs compliant with the minimum standards of NFIP, which is administered through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Ecology provides technical assistance to local governments for identifying the location of the 100-year (base) floodplain. By enacting restrictions and requirements on development in the floodplain, residents of Renton get reduced flood insurance rates in return. Renton’s participation in the NFIP allows residents and businesses to obtain flood insurance through the NFIP against potential flooding losses. 4.6 SUMMARY OF PERMITS REQUIRED Permits needed for construction projects are summarized in Table 4-2.

It also summarizes program policies, which are generally set forth by the City’s Comprehensive Plan. This section also discusses new policy directions evaluated during the development of this Plan. 4.7.1 SUSTAINABILITY The basic definition of sustainability is the ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. A more complex view of sustainability revolves around what is commonly referred to as the triple bottom line: the economy, society, and the environment. The latter representation would define sustainability as the ability for a project or a program, to continuously provide, to the most extent possible, economic, social and environmental benefits. The triple bottom line is generally used to define corporate or institutional level sustainability. Because the Surface Water program is institutional in nature, this section evaluates how sustainable this program is from the lens of institutional sustainability, not just from an environmental perspective. 4.7.1.1 Economic Benefits The Surface Water program provides various economic benefits to the City and the public. This financial sustainability component also relates to resiliency, or the ability of the Surface Water program to absorb, address and recover from challenges and unforeseen events. Economic benefits include: a. Structuring surface water fees to fund Surface Water operations and the Capital Improvement Program and maintaining a Surface Water fund balance which acts as a reserve to cover emerging priorities or unforeseen emergencies. b. Securing grants from the Department of Ecology, King County Flood Control Zone District, and FEMA, when necessary and as opportunities arise, to provide supplemental funding for the Surface Water Utility projects and programs, which reduces the need to increase utility rates to customers. c. Preservation of jobs through flood control projects that protect the facilities of major employers and large industries such as The Boeing Company, Renton Municipal Airport, commercial businesses, and the Renton School District. d. Improvement of property values along corridors in the City where drainage improvement and ‘Green Streets’ projects are constructed. Green streets couple water quality treatment with the addition of trees and vegetation to create safer, greener, and more inviting neighborhoods. e. Reduction of flood risk to private property through the implementation of drainage improvement and flood risk reduction projects.

Enabling properties in Renton to obtain discounted federal flood insurance by participation in the Community Rating System and implementation of policies and practices that exceed the minimum requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program. Currently, Renton has achieved a class rating of 5 which allows for a 25% discount. 4.7.1.2 Social Benefits The Surface Water program provides various social benefits to the public. This component of sustainability encompasses an equity or social justice subcomponent. Examples of social benefits provided by the Surface Water program include: a. Increasing motorist and pedestrian safety through drainage improvement and flood risk reduction projects. b. Maintaining ability to safely recreate in local waterbodies by treating and controlling surface water runoff from public streets and private developments. c. Constructing projects in historically underserved and underinvested communities (for example, the Sunset Area in the Renton Highlands) and accounting for equity and social justice when evaluating alternatives as part of flood risk reduction projects. d. Offering reduced Surface Water fees to low-income senior citizens (61 years of age and over) and low-income disabled customers. e. Offering visitors of the Surface Water Utility website the ability to display content in multiple languages using a website translation feature, and fostering inclusion by leveraging the Language Line interpreters, a service that the City subscribes to, and using translators to better communicate with and serve customers who not fluent in English. f. Engaging communities affected by projects built in their neighborhoods, using public input to inform programs and design priorities, and educating the public about stormwater and the protection of water resources. g. Maintaining a highly skilled workforce trained in equity and engagement and capable of offering exemplary customer service to all Renton residents. 4.7.1.3 Environmental Benefits The Surface Water program provides numerous environmental benefits. This third component of corporate sustainability is commonly termed as environmental sustainability. In certain contexts, sustainability is only defined through this environmental component. However, at the institutional level, a Surface Water program cannot be sustainable if it prioritizes environmental benefits at the expense of social and economic benefits. For example, if a Surface Water utility created a program that consists of projects that condemn and buy out properties in the floodplain of a river to promote off-channel flood storage and fish habitat, that program would have a high environmental score. However, it would likely have high costs, and would forcefully displace families from their homes, which would create severe opposition by the public. Thus, such a program would not be socially acceptable and therefore unsustainable. Nonetheless, the environmental component of sustainability mainly revolves around the protection of the environment and maintaining balance between human activity and environmental resources. There are numerous ways the Surface Water program protects environmental resources, water AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND CITY POLICIES O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC.

Additional environmental benefits of the Surface Water program, not explicitly stated in 4.7.2 include: a. Administration of the NPDES permit and Clean Water Act regulations to protect Surface Water from pollution and mitigate the effects of urbanization. b. The development, adoption, and implementation of surface water design standards for new developments, redevelopment projects and other civil projects to minimize environmental impacts to surface water quantity and quality and impacts to natural resources. c. Mitigating for environmental impacts of projects that affect fish habitat in compliance with state and federal permits. Currently, the City maintains two habitat channels along the Cedar River. d. Water quality retrofit projects that treat runoff from pollution generating surfaces (i.e., roads). The Utility has implemented four retrofit projects between 2010 and 2020, and at the time of writing has five retrofit projects in progress or being constructed. e. Watershed or ecosystem restoration plans in coordination with other jurisdictions such as the Green/Duwamish Ecosystem Restoration Program and the Panther Creek Watershed restoration. f. Springbrook Creek Wetland and Habitat Mitigation bank (see description in 5.10.1.1). g. Participation in the regional WRIA 8 Salmon Recovery Council and the WRIA 9 Watershed Ecosystem Restoration Forum to collaborate with other jurisdictions on fish habitat protection and restoration and implement projects in coordination with them. Habitat and water quality deficiencies identified are shown in tables 6-5 and 6-6. In conclusion, the Surface Water program provides adequate balance between economic, social, and environmental benefits to achieve institutional sustainability and contribute to the City Business Plan mission and goals. 4.7.2 CITY OF RENTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN GOALS AND POLICIES The City’s SWM Program carries out the policy direction set in the City’s Comprehensive Plan, as well as directions expressed by elected officials, and the public. The City’s 2015 Comprehensive Plan (City of Renton, 2015) and subsequent amendments adopted goals and policies that expressed the community’s desires related to surface water management. The Land Use Protecting the Natural Environment and Ensuring Natural Resources for the Future and Utility Elements describes goals and policies that are directly relevant to the SWM Program and provides direction, along with meeting regulatory requirements that have resulted in the services that the City currently provides to ratepayers. The goal of Utility is to implement a SWM Program that provides a high level of service for flood risk reduction, water quality compliance, and habitat preservation in accordance with the needs of the City and in a manner that is sustainable as explained in Section 4.7.1.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 4-30 4.7.3 POLICY AND RECOMMENDED GUIDELINES As a part of development of this Plan, City staff evaluated a policy for maintaining stormwater facilities and recommended guidelines for hiring additional staff. The policy involved taking over maintenance responsibilities for some residential plat stormwater facilities. This policy was specifically reviewed by the City Council in October 2010, adopted, and is being implemented. More information about the policy and its implications is presented in Section 5. The recommended guidelines included adding staff resources in the future when annexations occur and adding staff resources as infill development occurs. Annexations place new demands on Utility and the capital improvement program and require additional staff and equipment resources to maintain the level of service currently provided by Utility. Likewise, infill development results in additional Utility infrastructure to be maintained. These recommended guidelines are discussed in Section 5.4. The policy issue paper and recommended guidelines contained within are in Appendix A. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S E ATTLE • S POKANE 5-1 SECTION 5 FUTURE PROGRAM NEEDS 5.1 INTRODUCTION The City’s SWM Program has undergone significant changes in the past several years due to:  New responsibilities to comply with NPDES permit requirements.  City policy to assume maintenance responsibility for some private stormwater facilities.  Increased workload associated with large annexations and vegetation maintenance for water, surface water, and wastewater facilities easements and streets ROW. Additional O&M staff have been added to address these needs. Other future needs to address urban growth, Utility processes, and potential regulatory issues over the next six year planning period are described in the sections below and include:  Additional staff and resources to address infill development, which expands stormwater infrastructure (i.e., conveyance and flow and water quality facilities) that is inspected and maintained by the City.  Implementation of an asset management and system reinvestment program.  Inventory of culverts and streams with fish passage issues to prioritize for repair and/or replacement in preparation for the possibility that Cities and Counties are included in future court cases that require repair of fish passage barriers in Washington State.  Update of this Surface Water Utility System Plan. This section also describes ongoing activities that are recommended for continuation, including Utility coordination with outside agencies for major projects associated with transportation corridors or the major rivers in the City and other surface water initiatives and that are important to City residents. 5.2 NPDES PERMIT COMPLIANCE The City is on its third NPDES Phase II MS4 permit cycle. The most current permit became effective on August 1, 2019 and expires on July 31, 2024. Each successive permit includes modifications designed to improve water quality in the MS4 and results in additional City requirements. New NPDES requirements have created the following needs for the City: resources to develop and implement a source control program, additional MS4 mapping and documentation, and stormwater planning, including development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan for a high priority watershed (see Programmatic Fact Sheet, Appendix E). Implementation of projects and strategies identified in the Stormwater Management Action Plan will not be expected to occur before the 2024 permit expiration, but will be expected in future years. Once set-up, the source control program will be an ongoing program that will require staffing and resources of up to one additional FTE. Table 5-1 presents a summary of NPDES permit elements and estimates of existing budget for continuing programs and a range of potential increases, if any, in resource needs. The result is that new NPDES permit requirements could increase resource demands from between 3.7 to 5.7 FTEs. No new equipment and materials impacts are assumed except for the addition of an eductor truck for the cleaning and inspection of catch basins and inlets.

Asset management is a body of management practices that maximizes the cost-effective use of capital assets over the life of the asset (Sivalingam, 2001). Its purpose is to get the most use out of each asset over the life of the asset for the least long-term cost. For pipeline management, asset management can be defined as managing infrastructure capital assets to minimize the total cost of owning and operating them, while delivering the City’s target level of service. Several large municipalities have implemented asset management planning using sophisticated information systems and extensive personnel resources. Such municipalities are responsible for making sure that its system stays in good working order, regardless of the age of components or the availability of additional funds. Asset management programs with long-range planning, life-cycle costing, proactive operations and maintenance, and capital replacement plans based on cost-benefit analyses can be the most efficient method of meeting this challenge. Use of asset management will help protect the system integrity by (GASB, 1999): • Making sure components are protected from premature failure through proper operations and maintenance. • Facilitating proactive capital improvement planning and implementation over longer cycles to reduce annual and overall costs. • Reducing the cost of new or planned investments through economic evaluation of options using life-cycle costing and value engineering. • Focusing attention on results by clearly defining responsibility, accountability, and reporting requirements. • Key elements of more sophisticated asset management programs include (USEPA, 2002): • Level of service definition • Selection of performance goals • Information system • Asset identification and valuation • Failure Impact evaluation and risk management • Condition assessment • Rehabilitation and replacement planning • Capacity assessment and assurance • Maintenance analysis and planning • Financial management • Continuous improvement The City is currently using a combination of CityWorks, GIS, and GraniteNet for its asset management strategy. CityWorks is used to track maintenance work orders. GraniteNet is used for condition assessment data and prioritization of asset replacement or rehabilitation. GIS, integrated with CityWorks and GraniteNet, is used to display information and track projects and maintenance activity. One of the key elements of asset management is understanding asset condition. The City has an existing program to assess CMP pipes and prioritize maintenance, repair, and replacement.

KCFCD is instrumental in addressing the backlog of maintenance and repairs to levees and revetments, acquiring repetitive loss properties and other at-risk floodplain properties, and improving countywide flood warning and flood prediction capacity. Overarching countywide strategies and objectives include: • Improving levee protection through major commercial, industrial, and residential areas. • Improving flood water conveyance and capacity. • Reducing hazards by removing flood-, erosion-, and landslide-prone residential structures. • Providing safe access to homes and businesses by protecting key transportation routes. • Minimizing creation of new risks to public safety from development pressure. • Providing grant funding to local jurisdictions for flood control projects. The King County Council governs KCFCD as a “District Board of Supervisors.” An advisory committee advises the Board of Supervisors on regional flood risk reduction issues by providing recommendations on the district’s work program and budget, including CIP projects. The advisory committee is compo sed of both permanent and rotating (two-year) members. The 10 permanent seats on the committee are held by each mayor (or council member alternate designated by the mayor) of Tukwila, Auburn, Kent, Renton, Snoqualmie, North Bend, Carnation, Seattle, and Bellevue. The King County Executive is also a permanent member of the committee. Basin technical committees, which are responsible for ensuring that basin-scale issues and technical information are factored into countywide district decision-making processes, are comprised of city staff from jurisdictions within each basin. This includes the Green/Duwamish and Cedar River basins, which the City of Renton lies within. These committees have the following objectives: • Provide input to KCFCD staff regarding annual and longer term capital improvement project priorities. • Share relevant information across areas of the KCFCD that would influence implementation of the district’s work program. • Review and help guide project implementation, as appropriate. • Develop policies and issues papers as required. • Coordinate jointly with state and federal partners on relevant issues. King County employees are responsible for implementing flood hazard management programs and projects, staffing the advisory and basin technical committees, providing technical and engineering assistance to cities, and reporting progress back to the KCFCD’s Board of Supervisors, advisory committees, and basin technical committees.

Adult mosquitoes emerge from the wetlands in the late spring to feed in the residential neighborhoods in and around Talbot Hill. In addition to controlling adult mosquitoes, the City also treats for mosquito larvae in all City owned stormwater facilities including ponds and vaults. These mosquito abatement efforts help to reduce mosquito bites and subsequent risk of West Nile virus infection. The City implements an annual contract with pest control contractor to control mosquito populations through adulticiding of upland areas adjacent to the wetlands and treatment of City maintained stormwater ponds using larvicide during the spring and summer months. The budget may need to be adjusted annually to account for additional ponds that are acquired by the City through new construction. 0.0 $90,000 annually AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) FUTURE PROGRAM NEEDS OSBORN CONSULTING, INC.

However, some existing ponds with flatter interior side slopes (i.e., that did not require perimeter fencing) and having standing water several feet or more deep can create a potential safety hazard, particularly for small children. The City has adopt a new policy of requiring all current and future ponds to be fenced which required changes to the City’s stormwater code and stormwater design manual. The City is currently responsible for the maintenance of 28 residential facilities and 6 non-residential facilities that either do not have perimeter fencing or do not have a perimeter fence that meets the design standards. There are an additional 17 privately maintained stormwater facilities that will be eventually transferred to the City and will need to be fenced. 0.0 $100,000 annually Asset Management- enhancement Prioritize non-CMP pipes for condition assessment Develop protocols for using condition assessment data to identify maintenance, repair and replacement needs. The Surface Water utility has developed an asset management program that helps the utility with short, medium and long term planning of pipe replacement and repair, proactive inspection and maintenance of the City’s storm system and prioritizing replacement projects based on cost-benefit analysis and severity of defects. The program relies on a CCTV Truck with two operators, GraniteNet for viewing CCTV inspections, NASSCO PACP standards, and coordination between Surface Water Engineering and Maintenance sections.

This program was driven by a failure of a CMP pipe along Rainier Ave S in 2018, which caused a major cavity to form underneath the road, and required an emergency repair project. This program is intended to address deficiencies in CMPs, which are more susceptible to deterioration than plastic and concrete pipes, before a catastrophic failure becomes imminent. Minor deficiencies are typically repaired through coordination with the surface water maintenance section, while replacement projects resulting from significant structural issues (e.g. deterioration of the pipe wall, pipe collapse) require the replacement or rehabilitation of the pipe and may require hiring a contractor. This program repairs and replaces corrugated metal pipes showing signs of deterioration in high risk areas to avoid catastrophic failures and emergency repairs.

The King County Flood Control Zone District (KCFCZD) placed the Feasibility Study on its 6-year Capital Improvement Project funding plan in 2018 and a funding agreement was executed with the City in April 2020. This study is expected to begin in 2020 and be completed by 2023. This study evaluates the feasibility of increasing the level of flood protection along the Lower Cedar River, and reducing the risk of flooding to the surrounding area in Renton. It supports the city's goal of protecting public safety. 0.0 $485,000 AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) FUTURE PROGRAM NEEDS OSBORN CONSULTING, INC. BELLEVUE • SEATTLE • SPOKANE  5‐22 Table 5‐2: Summary of On‐Going and Future Program Needs Program Need Description/Potential Program Changes Conceptual Solution New FTEs Estimated Cost (2020) WSDOT Limited Access ROW Runoff Impact Mitigation Program The city currently charges surface water fees to WSDOT for the SR-167 and I-405 right of way within Renton city limits. RCW 90.03.525 allows local municipalities to charge stormwater fees for state limited access highways and was modified when Senate bill 5505 was passed in 2019. The bill clarified the objectives of the Stormwater Management Funding and Implementation Program for highway related runoff problems and required charges paid by the state to local jurisdictions to be used solely for stormwater control facilities that directly reduce state highway runoff impacts or implementation of best management practices that will reduce the need for such facilities. A plan and progress report are required to be submitted annually so that WSDOT pays their stormwater fee to the City. This program consists of studies and improvements to city facilities downstream of limited access right-of-way implemented to remain in compliance with RCW 90.03.525. This program enables the city to keep collecting surface water fees from WSDOT for limited access right of way, and prioritizes improvements beneficial to both the City and WSDOT. It supports the city's goals of public safety and quality of life. 0.0 $96,000 AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 6 -1 SECTION 6 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NEEDS 6.1 GENERAL This section includes a summary of the drainage system flooding, water quality, and habitat problems along with proposed project solutions for Utility. This section also describes the process that was used to identify the problems. Most of the information on solutions to these problems and associated costs was obtained from previous studies and documented in this Plan without further analysis. Conceptual project solutions and planning-level cost estimates were developed for a few additional problems identified during the 2007 planning effort. No additional conceptual project solutions or planning level cost estimates were identified or developed for the 2020 update. A prioritization scheme for implementation of capital improvement projects is also discussed. This section also includes a summary of the capital projects that have been identified by Utility as being needed on an annual basis. 6.2 FLOOD RISK REDUCTION The stormwater system in the City includes pipe systems, ditches, culverts, creeks, and detention facilities. Over the years, the Utility has addressed many flooding problems through solutions ranging from simple system maintenance to design and construction of complex capital projects. However, several flooding problems still exist. The Utility’s policy typically has been to address major trunk drainage system problems first, and then address localized problems that affect fewer people and cause less property damage. In addition, activities to reduce flood risk are focused on improving public safety, preventing damage to structures (including commercial buildings and private homes), and reducing the frequency of flooding. Several steps were completed during the 2007 planning effort to identify flooding problems in the City. Available drainage studies, basin plans, and other related reports were reviewed along with the list of drainage complaints downloaded from the City’s GIS database. City staff interviewed maintenance personnel and King County maintenance staff in areas that had been annexed. A preliminary list of flooding problems was compiled and reviewed to confirm which of the problems still exist and to add other problems that had not been previously included. Most of the problems within the City involve localized flooding due to the lack of a collection system, old age of the system, or an undersized conveyance system. Flooding solutions were developed to different levels of detail. For flooding problems identified from drainage complaints or by City staff that were not documented in a previous report or study, or for those that did not have a previously developed recommended solution, field reconnaissance was conducted to better evaluate the problem so that a planning-level conceptual solution and cost estimate could be developed. In these cases, the conceptual solution and cost estimate are considered very preliminary, because the solution was developed without detailed analysis (such as hydraulic analysis or survey). For flooding problems that had been documented in previous studies, project solutions were also developed and documented in most cases. The problems that were identified through the data review and collection process became projects within Utility’s CIP and are summarized in Tables 6-4a through 6-4f and organized by basin.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 6 -5 on Ecology’s 2016 303(d) list for violation of temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH water quality standards. The lower Cedar River has good water quality with the highest quality water in the upper reaches and decreasing water quality as the river flows through developed urban and suburban areas. Ecology has two water quality monitoring stations along the Cedar River, one near Landsburg and the other in Renton at Logan Street. The WQI score at these locations for water years 2016, 2017, and 2018 were above 85 for the Logan Street station and above 93 for the Landsburg station (Freshwater Information Network, 2020). Both scores are above the threshold value of 80 for “good” water quality, per the Washington DOE river and stream water quality index, indicating that the water quality at these locations meet expectations and these areas are of lowest concern for water quality issues. As noted previously, the upper portions of the watershed are largely undeveloped and provide more pristine runoff to the Cedar River. The upper watershed is a protected area of about 90,000 acres and is owned by the City of Seattle. The upper watershed is called the Cedar River Watershed and provides drinking water to the greater Seattle area at the Landsburg diversion. The lower Cedar River watershed has been extensively altered and was re-routed in 1912 from draining into the Black River to draining into Lake Washington. By 2001, approximately 64% of the lower Cedar River was modified on at least one bank, which, coupled with decreased flows, had narrowed the river from a historic average of 250 feet in width to 110 feet (Kerwin, 2001). The loss of floodplain and riparian connectivity in the lower Cedar River has affected storage, sediment, and contaminants, and it has simplified in-stream habitat. 6.4.4 MAPLEWOOD CREEK AND TIFFANY (GINGER) CREEKS There is limited recent data available for Maplewood and Tiffany creeks, but they likely have good water quality during dry weather. Limited data indicate that pollutant concentrations become elevated during storms, in particular metals and nutrients and probably petroleum products. It is likely that the water quality standards for some metals are exceeded during storms. The Cedar River Basin Current and Future Conditions Report (King County, 1993) documented a septic failure rate of approximately 13% within the Maplewood Creek subbasin, but it is believed that many of these failures have been corrected since 1993. 6.4.5 MAY CREEK The May Creek watershed covers about 8,960 acres in Renton, Newcastle, and unincorporated King County and includes 26 miles of mapped streams, two small lakes, and over 400 acres of wetlands. Headwaters are mostly forested ravines and include a significant portion of the undeveloped parkland on Cougar Mountain. The lower, western portion of the basin is inside the UGA and is a fairly dense urban residential development area with some undeveloped forested areas. Trend results (discussed in Section 2) indicated that water temperature, conductivity, and ammonia-nitrogen have increased significantly, while pH, TSS, and nutrient concentration (ortho-phosphorus, nitrate, and total nitrogen) have decreased. May Creek’s 2018 water year WQI score was 70 out of 100. May Creek is listed as impaired for temperature, fecal coliform bacteria, and bioassessment on Ecology’s 2016 303(d) list. Input of waste to the creek from livestock and septic systems on the upland plateau likely contribute to the presence of fecal coliform within the creek. 6.4.6 HONEY CREEK Honey Creek drains approximately 962 acres of mixed commercial and residential land.

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 6 -10 In general, it is the City’s goal to implement the Priority 1 projects during the next 6-year CIP planning period, or as funding allows. The specific order and timing of project implementation for the currently 6- year CIP developed as a part of this plan is discussed in Section 7. However, it is noted that the order in which the projects will be implemented within both the 6-year CIP and the priority groups will be updated annually as part of Utility’s annual CIP planning process. Priority 2 and 3 projects could be funded in later years as funding becomes available and other projects get completed. Other factors also are considered on a case-by-case for projects across the three priorities. On occasion, this may change the relative position between projects. One important consideration is whether a project could be implemented early to take advantage of “opportunistic” factors such as funding or scheduling opportunities. Funding opportunities periodically arise when a grant becomes available. Grant programs often target different types of projects. For example, if a particular grant program targets salmon recovery, projects with habitat elements may be bumped ahead of flooding projects in an effort to obtain grant funding to offset the project costs. Scheduling opportunities become available when surface water projects can be combined with other City projects to reduce construction costs. An example is when a conveyance system upgrade is implemented at the same time that a street, water, or sewer improvement project is being built, so that a portion of the project’s cost, such as the costly roadway restoration, mobilization, and demobilization, is shared between Utility and the other City department. Another factor in prioritizing projects is the fact that some projects may provide additional habitat benefits or may be counted as mitigation for another project. For example, when comparing two flooding projects that may otherwise provide equivalent flood risk reduction benefit, but one also benefits habitat, the priority should be given to the latter. Using these prioritization considerations, the City developed a priority ranking as presented in Table 6-8. The Priority 1 projects total $46.6 million. The total costs of Priority 2 and 3 projects are approximately $12.3 million and $9.2 million, respectively. The total cost of the flooding projects with habitat emphasis is approximately $922,000. Table 6-3 provides an overall summary of the CIP and program cost breakdown over the 6-yr CIP planning period, including the flooding projects by priority category, as well as annual projects, habitat projects, and water quality projects.

Boeing Bridge) The project is a continuation of the Cedar River Section 205 Flood Damage Reduction Project. The regionally significant project solved major river flooding from Williams Avenue to Lake Washington that resulted in flooding of the Renton Municipal Airport, Boeing facilities and the north Renton. River flooding has caused extensive damages in the past. Additionally, natural sediment transport and deposition in the Cedar River, a highly aggradational river, gradually buildups sediment in the lower Cedar River from avulsed upstream basin areas. Sediment accumulation in Lower Cedar River from Lake Washington to Williams Ave S (Section 205) causes the reduction in flood protection level of the floodwalls and levees in that reach which flows through Boeing and the Renton Municipal airport. Programmed funding is for the design, permitting, and completion of the gravel removal from Section 205 river bed, as well as required project mitigation activities, monitoring of spawning channel fish use, and yearly monitoring of sediment accumulations in the lower 1.25 miles of the Cedar River. $14,966,000 (Funds to be provided by the King County Flood Control Zone District) 111 Monroe Avenue NE and NE 2nd Street 301 Monroe Avenue NE The 245-acre subbasin influent to the existing storm system currently drains untreated runoff to a 670-foot-long 36-inch perforated infiltration pipe along NE 2nd street and a 200-foot-long 48-inch perforated infiltration pipe along the King County Access Road, both with insufficient capacity. Therefore, during large storm events, stormwater currently overflows via two outfalls from the trunkline on Monroe Ave NE to 301 Monroe Ave NE, a property commonly referred to as the Upper Balch Pit. Here, stormwater ponds and infiltrates into the native soil. Before the construction of the temporary outfalls to the Upper Balch Pit in 1996, there were several incidences of flooding at the intersection of NE 4th St and Monroe Ave NE. As the property owner of the Upper Balch Pit, Segale Properties, LLC, is in the process of filling the pit for future development of multifamily residential lots, termination of the easement that allows for the City’s existing stormwater overflow system is expected by 2023. Therefore, the City must construct a new drainage outlet for the subbasin. This project will design and construct a permanent drainage and water quality treatment solution to replace the expiring temporary stormwater overflow from Monroe Ave NE into a private property at 301 Monroe Ave NE. In the proposed design, stormwater runoff from the Monroe Ave NE Basin will enter the Upper Balch Pit site from the storm system along Monroe Ave NE. Runoff will be conveyed via storm pipe to the northwest corner of the site to a hydrodynamic separator and flow splitter, which then outlets the stormwater to open channels via a level spreader. Stormwater will then pass through a surficial facility for enhanced basic water quality treatment, before entering a Stormtech Chamber gallery for infiltration into the native soil. Newly treated and infiltrated stormwater will recharge the groundwater table, and feed the Cedar River approximately 3,800 feet southwest of the Upper Balch Pit site. $6,350,000 116 Ginger Creek/Cascade Park Basin Plan SE 162nd Street to Cedar River Pipeline (Cascade Park) (Tiffany Park Culvert) Cascade Park drains north through a neighborhood via an old concrete pipe and open channels. The runoff eventually reaches the Cedar River Pipeline ROW, via an old steel pipe, and is routed under the Tiffany Park area. The existing pipe system surcharges during moderate events flooding Cascade Park. House #12512 located at SE 164th Pl. also experiences flooding from backwatering from the Cascade Park storm system. Based on a cursory site visit, it appears that sediment buildup in the open channel section between SE 160th Street and the Cedar River Pipeline ROW as well as storm pipe grade issues downstream maybe contributing to the backwater conditions and consequential flooding in the park and neighborhood to the south. A study is proposed to determine the primary cause of the problem, evaluate alternative solutions and develop a design of the preferred solution. The proposed solution should include an HPA due to work within potential wetlands and ditches. $350,000 AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NEEDS OSBORN CONSULTING, INC.

Upstream developments north of NE 4th Street floods private properties during significant storm events. Downstream storm systems need to be analyzed along NE 4th between Union and Duvall, near Union, east of Duvall, at the 5400 Block of NE 4th Street and at 5400 NE 3rd Place.

City surface water staff investigated the pipe outfalls in February of 2012 and discovered that there was significant undercutting of the slope beneath the outfalls resulting in broken and separated sections of pipe. Washout is evident at a pipe outfall. Pipe length may be lacking as well as an energy dissipater. Maplewood Creek Basin Storm System Improvements to improve outfalls and erosion problems to Maplewood Creek. This project is identified in the Cedar River Basin Plan to solve existing and future surface water management problems (flooding, water quality, and habitat). The project will help reduce and solve existing sediment problems and future flooding and erosion issues, as well as improve water quality and habitat in the Cedar River Basin. The project includes improving the storm systems that conveys Maplewood Creek drainage across roadways, and storm system outfalls that discharge near the top of the ravine and cause erosion in the Maplewood Creek ravine. This will also reduce sediment input into Maplewood Creek and the Maplewood Creek Sedimentation Basin, and may reduce the maintenance frequency of the basin. Specific improvements to the outfalls include replacing the three outfalls from the manholes in Chelan Ave SE and SE 4th Pl to the bottom of the slope with energy dissipater structures at their outlets. So far two outfalls were replaced in 2016, and one outfall remains. The remaining outfall is located in private property which makes the project more challenging, The City attempted to engage King County on this project due to the outfalls discharging into their jurisdiction. Extend pipe to bottom of slope and build a rock outfall to prevent further erosion of materials from being transported downstream. City maintenance crews will replace the in-street CBs and pipe system at the corner. $1,030,000 AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NEEDS

BELLEVUE • SEATTLE • SPOKANE 6-24 TABLE 6-4E: FLOODING PROBLEMS: BLACK RIVER BASIN GIS ID # Project Name Approximate Location Problem Description Conceptual Solution Estimated Cost (2020) 245 SW 23rd Street Drainage and Fish Passage Improvements SW 23rd Street between SR-167 and Springbrook Creek Panther Creek flows into the SW 23rd St channel prior to connecting into Springbrook Creek. The outlet elevation of two 48-inch CMP at East Valley Road culverts were set 4 feet below the grade of the Panther Creek channel creating a submerged condition which impairs fish passage and creates undesirable hydraulic conditions. Additionally, two - 9’ by 14’ CMP arch culverts that convey the Panther Creek channel across Lind Ave SW are reaching the end of their useful life and are set below grade. Also of concern is the increase in vegetation in the 23rd St channel between Lind Ave and East Valley Road which has reduced its hydraulic capacity. It is likely that channel improvements are needed along with culvert replacements to ensure adequate hydraulic connectivity along Panther Creek from SR-167 to Springbrook Creek. Furthermore, WSDOT approached the City in 2020 with a proposal to connect Rolling Hills Creek to the Panther Creek channel at SW 23rd St, to meet their fish passage injunction obligation by 2030. WSDOT had connected Rolling Hills Creek to the SW 19th St storm system which is not fish passable. Connecting Rolling Hills Creek into the SW 23rd St channel would require further upsizing of the culverts and further channel improvements. The proposed solution is to replace the culverts at East Valley Road and Lind Ave SW with new fish passable culverts. The new culverts will probably be single cell three sided box culverts lined with spawning gravel. Channel improvements would consist of excavating the channel bottom and widening the cross section. Such improvements may be comparable to those identified in the P9 channel report. Since these improvements are also beneficial to WSDOT due to their obligation to provide fish passage from Springbrook Creek to Rolling Hills Creek, the Surface Water Utility will evaluate the possibility of partnering with WSDOT. Connecting Rolling Hills Creek to the SW 23rd St channel would require breaching a berm that separates Rolling Hills Creek from the Panther Creek Wetland, relocation of a City water line, and resolution of multiple utility conflicts. Improvements to the SW 23rd St channel would also need to accommodate flows from Rolling Hills Creek, and that may have a significant effect on the scope and size of these improvements. $1,780,000 251 Springbrook Creek Old Bridge Removal at SW 27th Street Springbrook Creek North of SW 27th Street A private old bridge (not used as a bridge any more) north of SW 27th Street on Springbrook Creek creates backwater condition that results in higher creek water surface elevations that contribute to upstream flooding (e.g., at SW 43rd Street). The proposed solution is to remove the bridge and replant the stream channel side slopes. $105,000 256 East Valley Road Storm System Improvements East Valley Road Between SW 30th Street and SW 23rd Street Localized areas of flooding along East Valley Road between approximately SW 30th Street and SW 23rd Street resulting from insufficient capacity in the existing storm system during large rainfall events. The project includes replacing 3400 LF of existing storm system along the East Valley Road between approximately SW 30th St. and SW 23rd St. with a new 60/54-inch storm system. The new storm system will discharge into the SW 23rd St. culvert on E. Valley Road, which discharges to Springbrook Creek. WSDOT is responsible for partial or all funding due to mitigation for the P9 channel as was documented in the P9 Report. $550,000 263 Shattuck Avenue South and S 37th Street Outfall Shattuck Avenue S and S 37th Street Outfall (Runoff from Talbot Road S.) Drainage facilities in Shattuck Avenue are lacking or insufficient. Sub-surface seepage is causing deterioration of road pavement and sidewalks. The problem is related to increased flows from upstream development and erosion of the steep slopes due to lack of defined outfall westward. The proposed solution includes conveyance improvements that are coordinated with a future street repair project (10+ years per the existing City TIP) and include anchoring the outfall, installation of new storm drain piping, new outfall, and ensuring all future flows to this system can be adequately managed.

C202 WRIA 8 – ID C202 (CR-0-1.1-RB) Dredging of this reach is anticipated in the future. Plantings will need to consider flood control requirements, airport safety issues, park and trail management and public access to the river. Recreational uses need to be balanced with an assortment of other uses. Revegetate right and left bank of Reach 1 where possible. Overhanging vegetation in this area of the river that experiences inundation by the lake is beneficial. Plants will also need to be flood tolerant to flourish in the future. Plant selection will also need to consider that the airport has a clear zone over the park that affects type of vegetation that can be planted.

Explore additional opportunities to reduce the effect of artificial nighttime lighting beyond the mitigation requirements for the 2016 dredging project. C203 WRIA 8- ID C203 (CR-1.1-1.6-LB) (CR-1.1-RB) Reach 2 re-vegetation projects. Any planting in this area needs to consider park and trail management as well as access to the river. Limited riparian plantings are possible due to the Cedar River trail. Re-vegetate riparian areas where possible in Reach 2 at Logan Street Bridge (RM 1) to I-405 (RM 1.6). Explore options to add native riparian vegetation on the left and right bank of the river. Remove invasive vegetation and plant native riparian vegetation on left bank in areas where mature trees do not exist between Houser Way N and Logan Ave N. Potential for large wood placement at tow of bank in selected locations. Create a shallow alcove with LWD in the lawn area between the Renton Senior Center and the existing river bank (right bank). Plant the lawn with riparian vegetation. C204 WRIA 8- IDs C204 Cedar River Reach 2 and Reach 3 improvements that include exploring re-development options and restoration. Land use issues would exist for any restoration project proposed in this area. There exists a high number of landowners, so feasibility of restoration is diminished. Explore redevelopment and restoration projects in Reach 2 and 3, particularly in areas of industrial use in Reach 3 that are likely to be redeveloped in the near future. Reach 3, as defined in the WRIA 8 Plan, is within the City of Renton. The WRIA plan suggests that the City offers regulatory flexibility or other incentives to encourage buffer and floodplain improvements during redevelopment. This is part of the ‘explore re-development’ option. Habitat improvement in the reach could be encouraged through incentive programs such as offering density exchanges. Exploring the possibility of setting back levees and riparian buffer restoration is a challenge in this area. The WRIA 8 project list includes a conceptual project that seeks ways to improve riparian habitat on site such as purchasing easement for buffer, removing bank hardening and restoring riparian buffer. There is a conceptual design for approximately 1,000 linear feet of bank enhancements developed, which includes regrading the bank to provide shallow edge habitat, large wood installation, and riparian revegetation.

Possibly underplant with conifer now and replant area when trees are removed in five to ten years. Permits to remove and manage trees would be required. Where possible, protection and maintenance of existing tree cover in this reach is highly recommended. C206 WRIA 8- ID C206 (CR-2.1-2.4-RB) Improve riparian habitat in area of industrial use. A bulkhead in this area is very large and removal is highly recommended. Examples of these ‘industrial’ areas that could be restored include the areas adjacent to the old Stoneway site and the Riviera Apartments. Remove invasive vegetation and restore riparian buffer adjacent to Riviera Apartments. Explore opportunities to remove impervious surface area and bank hardening on site. Explore opportunities to remove impervious surface areas and bank hardening, and restore riparian buffer in areas of multifamily residential use in Reach 3. This includes areas like the multifamily redevelopment of Riviera Apartments. Explore opportunities to purchase easements for buffer, removing bank hardening and restoring riparian buffer. Bulkhead removal of a structure 16 feet high x 1,150 feet along river is needed. C207 WRIA 8- ID C207 Bank sloughing along Cedar River in riparian corridor within areas of multifamily residential use in Reach 3. Apartment complex in this area has extensive impervious surface area. Partial buyout would be necessary to achieve high benefits. Explore opportunities to remove impervious surface area and bank hardening on site, and restore riparian buffer. The WRIA 8 project list includes a conceptual project that seeks ways to improve riparian habitat on site such as purchasing easement for buffer, removing bank hardening and restoring riparian buffer.

C208 WRIA 8- ID C208 (CR-3.4-4.3-RB) Maplewood neighborhood flood buyouts and floodplain restoration. Restoration of floodplain is needed in this area. Buyouts of various homes affected by flooding during high river events. These include, but are not limited to, the Lyon’s home and two other neighboring parcels along the Cedar River affected by the flooding in the Wasmita Park area. Explore opportunities to restore riparian corridor by removing impervious surfaces and restoring riparian buffers with vegetation. Explore options for bioengineering and softening bank hardening (See recommendations for Maplewood Flood Hazard Reduction in Cedar River Basin Plan). The cost is high for this reach due to buyouts. Benefits would depend on scale of effort but at a minimum would need to reduce flood hazards. Buyouts alone do not usually provide significant fish benefits, but does allow for future floodplain restoration. For the greatest benefit, flood buyouts should be pursued in concert with comprehensive habitat restoration efforts. C209 WRIA 8 – ID C209 (CR-1.6-5.2-BB) The reach 3 area (between I-405 RM 1 to SR169 Bridge RM 4.2) is well vegetated. However, noxious weed control, underplanting, and exploring diversity of plants is needed. Restore riparian areas in city owned parks upstream of I-405 bridge, particularly the left bank. C210 WRIA 8 – ID C210 (CR-1.6-5.2-BB) Protect the existing forested, riparian habitat in the City of Renton’s parkland upstream of I-405 bridge on the left bank. Renton’s three riverside parks (Liberty, Cedar River Park, and Narco property) are going through new master planning process. Opportunities may exist to move some of the more active recreation uses of these parks to the former Narco site and protect habitat with more passive recreational uses at the other areas of the parks and restore existing riparian areas. A potential alternative for this region is to look at lowering the river to provide recreational uses in order to protect upstream habitat.

BELLEVUE • SEATTLE • SPOKANE 6-37 TABLE 6-7: PROGRAMS AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE Mosquito Abatement Program (Talbot Hill Area) The Panther Creek wetlands east of SR-167 and between I-405 and Valley Medical Hospital, are a large breeding ground for mosquitoes. Adult mosquitoes emerge from the wetlands in the late spring to feed in the residential neighborhoods in and around Talbot Hills. In addition to controlling adult mosquitoes, the City also treats for mosquito larvae in all City owned stormwater facilities including ponds and vaults. These mosquito abatement efforts help to reduce mosquito bites and subsequent risk of West Nile virus infection. The City implements an annual contract with pest control contractor to control mosquito populations through adulticiding of upland areas adjacent to the wetlands and treatment of City maintained stormwater ponds using larvicide during the spring and summer months. The budget will need to be adjusted annually to account for additional ponds that are acquired by the City through new construction and future annexations. $90,000 Annually Stormwater Facility Fencing Project Past and current design standards (taken largely from King County Surface Water Design Manual) require stormwater ponds to have a perimeter fence only when interior side slopes are greater than 3 horizontal to 1 vertical. However, some existing ponds with flatter interior side slopes (i.e., that did not require perimeter fencing) and having standing water several feet or more deep can create a potential safety hazard, particularly for small children. The City has adopt a new policy of requiring all current and future ponds to be fenced which required changes to the City’s stormwater code and stormwater design manual The City is currently responsible for the maintenance of 28 residential facilities and 6 non-residential facilities that either do not have perimeter fencing or do not have a perimeter fence that meets the design standards. There are an additional 17 privately maintained stormwater facilities that will be eventually transferred to the City and will need to be fenced. $100,000 Annually Asset Management Enhancement As the City’s infrastructure ages, storm pipes and structures tend to perform poorly or fail, potentially causing flooding and endangering the public. Deciding when to maintain, repair and replace stormwater infrastructure is difficult without an asset management program that will manage infrastructure capital assets that will minimize the total cost of owning and operating them while providing the City’s target level of service. The Surface Water utility has developed an asset management program that helps the utility with short, medium and long term planning of pipe replacement and repair, proactive inspection and maintenance of the City’s storm system and prioritizing replacement projects based on cost-benefit analysis and severity of defects. The program relies on a CCTV Truck with two operators, GraniteNet for viewing CCTV inspections, NASSCO PACP standards, and coordination between Surface Water Engineering and Maintenance sections. The utility will continue to advance this program to include non-CMP pipes. $100,000 Annually City Wide Drainage Maintenance Program The City has many culverts discharging to streams and creeks that require routine maintenance including vegetation and sediment removal. The City has completed SEPA review and was issued a critical areas and shoreline exemption for vegetation and sediment removal at culverts within in the City. Fisheries has also issued an HPA that authorizes routine maintenance of 25 culverts and channels. City staff will still be required to obtain individual state and federal permits for each culvert. $66,000 Annually Surface Water Utility GIS The City’s infrastructure mapping needs continual updates as new storm water facilities, pipes and structures are taken into plats or acquired through annexations. Surface water utility GIS mapping to include new storm water systems, as-built information, recently annexed areas, and continual maintenance of GIS mapping. $115,000 Annually Stream Flow/WQ Monitoring Program Stream flow and water quality monitoring program. Currently collecting stream gage date at the Black River pump station. $13,000 Annually Culvert/Stream Inventory As a result of a permanent injunction issued by the US District Court reinforcing treaty rights, WSDOT and WDFW must replace culvert crossings that are fish barriers with fish passable culverts. With this ruling, it opens up the possibility that other government entities may also have to replace fish barriers within their jurisdiction The Surface Water Utility began the process of conducting a stream inventory of all culvert crossings. This information was used to eventually field survey each culvert crossing in an effort to identify fish passage issues and develop solutions with priority rankings which can be incorporated in the utility’s CIP program. The establishment of a fish passage improvement program is currently under consideration. $95,000 Annually Surface Water Utility Plan The Surface Water Utility’s last comprehensive planning effort was conducted almost 25 years ago. A new surface water utility management plan is needed to reflect current capital needs and programs. Develop a comprehensive city-wide surface water planning document to provide guidance for programmatic and capital needs for the next 6 years and for future years. Update every 6 years. Last update as of the writing of this system plan was in 2020. $120,000 (6-year CIP Cost) AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NEEDS OSBORN CONSULTING, INC. BELLEVUE • SEATTLE • SPOKANE 6‐38 TABLE 6‐7: PROGRAMS AND REGULATORY COMPLIANCE CMP Storm System Replacement Program This program consists of assessing the condition of all corrugated metal pipes (CMP) whose diameter is 18 inches or larger, located in high risk areas (i.e. under major roads). This program was driven by a failure of a CMP pipe along Rainier Ave S in 2018, which caused a major cavity to form underneath the road, and required an emergency repair project. This program is intended to address deficiencies in CMPs, which are more susceptible to deterioration than plastic and concrete pipes, before a catastrophic failure becomes imminent. Minor deficiencies are typically repaired through coordination with the surface water maintenance section, while replacement projects resulting from significant structural issues (e.g. deterioration of the pipe wall, pipe collapse) require the replacement or rehabilitation of the pipe and may require hiring a contractor. This program repairs and replaces corrugated metal pipes showing signs of deterioration in high risk areas to avoid catastrophic failures and emergency repairs. This project supports the city's goal of protecting public safety. $580,000 (6‐year CIP Cost)  Cedar River Flood Risk Reduction Feasibility Study The Lower Cedar River Flood Risk Reduction Feasibility Study intends to assess the feasibility of improving the level of flood protection and evaluate future flood risk mitigation projects along the Cedar River from River Mile 0 to River Mile 2.7.  This feasibility study would identify potential measures or construction projects that would increase resiliency to floods greater than the 100‐year event and identify the most feasible level of flood protection that could be achieved along this reach of the Cedar River, a critical area of development and economic activity within King County. The King County Flood Control Zone District (KCFCZD) placed the Feasibility Study on its 6‐year Capital Improvement Project funding plan in 2018 and a funding agreement was executed with the City in April 2020. This study is expected to begin in 2020 and be completed by 2023. This study evaluates the feasibility of increasing the level of flood protection along the Lower Cedar River, and reducing the risk of flooding to the surrounding area in Renton. It supports the city's goal of protecting public safety. $485,000 (6‐year CIP Cost) WSDOT Limited Access ROW Runoff Impact Mitigation Program The city currently charges surface water fees to WSDOT for the SR‐167 and I‐405 right of way within Renton city limits. RCW 90.03.525 allows local municipalities to charge stormwater fees for state limited access highways and was modified when Senate bill 5505 was passed in 2019. The bill clarified the objectives of the Stormwater Management Funding and Implementation Program for highway related runoff problems and required charges paid by the state to local jurisdictions to be used solely for stormwater control facilities that directly reduce state highway runoff impacts or implementation of best management practices that will reduce the need for such facilities. A plan and progress report are required to be submitted annually so that WSDOT pays their stormwater fee to the City.  This program consists of studies and improvements to city facilities downstream of limited access right‐of‐way implemented to remain in compliance with RCW 90.03.525.

The two main areas of recommendations include surface water management program elements and capital improvement program. 7.1 SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM CHANGES The recommended program changes are summarized below within two broad categories, Regulatory Compliance and Other Future Program Needs and Policy Considerations. Recommendations in the area of Regulatory Compliance primarily relate to compliance with the NPDES permit. Fact Sheets developed for new programs identified in Section 5 are included in Appendix E. 7.1.1 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE As discussed in Section 3, Utility has taken major steps from 2008 to present day in order to meet the requirements of the NPDES permit. Starting in August 2019, Utility also began to phase in new and/or increased programs to meet the new permit compliance requirements as part of the next NDPES permit cycle. The following paragraphs list some of the major recommendations regarding NPDES and regulatory compliance, the majority of which relates to the new NPDES permit. • Anticipate need for program increases as the new NPDES permit is phased in. Table 5-1 presents a list of the main changes from the current permit and provides an estimated range of cost implications of between $223,200 and $455,500 for implementation of a new source control program, additional mapping and watershed planning, and development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan. Overall costs to implement the permit, including implementation of on-going permit conditions range from $1,242,860 to $1,801,660. These estimates are based on current City staffing costs and estimated staffing levels to complete the work. Details are provided in Section 5. Some of the major NPDES permit changes in the 2019 permit (summarizing from Table 5-1) are: o Develop and implement a source control program for existing land uses. o Evaluate receiving water conditions in City watersheds and select high priority watershed for which to develop a Stormwater Management Action Plan. o Map private stormwater systems connected to the MS4. 7.1.2 OTHER FUTURE PROGRAM NEEDS AND POLICY CONSIDERATIONS Section 5 discusses ongoing activities and the future needs of Utility to address permit requirements, city policies, and increased workloads, as well as land use, Utility processes, and potential regulatory issues. These ongoing and future program needs are summarized in Table 5-2, and include: AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) RECOMMENDATIONS O SBORN C ONSULTING , I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE 7 -2 • Continue to monitor the increased resources from infill development relative to maintenance staff levels and make adjustments as needed. • Continuation of Residential Plat Stormwater Management Facility and Maintenance and Operation • Continuation of existing surface water initiatives, including the Mosquito Abatement Program, Stormwater Facility Fencing Program, City-Wide Drainage Maintenance Program, and Stream Flow/Water Quality Monitoring Program. • Enhance the current Asset Management Program to include all Utility assets. • Update the Surface Water Utility System Plan every 6 years. • Continue with agency coordination such as WSDOT, KCFCD, FEMA, USACE, and Ecology on issues related to surface water management within the City. 7.2 PLANNED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Table 7-1 presents Utility’s 2021 to 2026 CIP. The CIP includes flood hazard reduction projects, water quality projects, and habitat projects. Fact Sheets developed by the City for the Utility CIP for 2021 to 2026 are included in Appendix G. The fact sheets describe each project, summarize the scope, and illustrate estimated expenditures and funding resources spread out over the six-year planning period. They also indicate a planned year of implementation for each CIP, noting however that project priorities change in any given year. Section 6 provides a discussion of several factors that can influence the schedule for CIP implementation.

The City currently requires homeowner associations to own and maintain stormwater flow control and water quality treatment facilities in single-family residential plats, even though these facilities manage runoff from public streets. However, when the City annexes areas from King County, the City is required to assume maintenance of stormwater management facilities in the newly annexed areas because King County owns and maintains stormwater facilities in plats with public streets. The Surface Water Utility currently maintains 100 stormwater facilities in plats. There are an additional 213 facilities that are privately maintained by homeowner associations in single-family residential plats that manage runoff from public streets. Because these facilities manage runoff from public right-of-way, the City should maintain these facilities. The proper maintenance of these facilities is also needed to minimize maintenance and capital improvements costs to the City, to meet regulatory requirements related to the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit, to protect public safety, to prevent damage to property, and to protect environmental resources. Prior to the City assuming maintenance of existing stormwater facilities, the facilities would need to meet City maintenance standards. The total additional revenue increase needed to fund the program would be about $13 per year for a typical homeowner, based upon 2010 Surface Water Utility revenues. That amount could be reduced if proposed revenue increases are approved as part of the 2011-2012 budget process and if the Fairwood Annexation is approved. The hiring of the maintenance staff and budgeting for the purchase and rental of equipment would be phased in between 2012 and 2013, depending upon how rapidly facilities are transferred from homeowner associations to the City. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Assume maintenance and operation of all stormwater facilities in single-family residential plats with public streets. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT M E M O R A N D U M DATE: September 8, 2010 TO: Don Persson, Council President Members of the Renton City Council VIA: Denis Law, Mayor FROM: Gregg Zimmerman, Administrator STAFF CONTACT: Ron Straka, Surface Water Utility Supervisor, x7248 Steve Lee, Surface Water Utility Engineer, x7205 SUBJECT: Residential Plat Stormwater Management Facility Maintenance and Operation Policy ISSUE: Should the City implement a policy to take over maintenance and operation of stormwater management facilities in single-family residential plats with public streets? RECOMMENDATION:  The City assumes maintenance and operation of existing and future stormwater management facilities constructed in plats with public streets. This includes assuming maintenance of approximately 213 existing stormwater facilities.  Prior to the City assuming maintenance of the existing stormwater management facilities in plats from homeowner associations, the facility will have to be maintained by them to meet City stormwater facility maintenance standards.  The hiring of the maintenance staff and budgeting for the purchase and rental of equipment would be phased in over time starting in 2012, depending upon how rapidly facilities are transferred from homeowner associations to the City. It is recommended that the 2012 budget include funding to hire two full-time Maintenance Worker III positions and budget to hire four part-time non-regular employees (summer help), funding to purchase a slope mower with trailer, a one-ton flatbed truck and a dewatering pump. The 2013 budget would include funding to hire two additional full-time Maintenance Worker III positions , the purchase of another slope mower with trailer and a one-ton flatbed truck, along with the funding for rental of equipment, material disposal, AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Mr. Don Persson, Council President Page 2 of 6 September 8, 2010 H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-9999 SSWM Plan\1116 SWUMP IssuePapers\Pond Maintenance Takeover\1003 City Correspondence\100809 Util_Cmttee_Pond_Maint_Policy_Issue_Paper_STLver1.doc\STLtp and the purchase of materials associated with the facility cleaning and repairs (see attached Single-Family Residential Plat Facility Maintenance Cost Summary).  The total revenue increase needed to assume maintenance of the 213 stormwater facilities is estimated to be 14.67%, which would add an average of $1.09 per month to a typical single-family residential customer’s Surface Water Utility bill. This is based upon 2010 Surface Water Utility revenues. BACKGROUND SUMMARY: On October 20, 2008, the Surface Water Utility (SWU) presented a Utility Committee Briefing concerning the establishment of a uniform and equitable policy regarding maintenance of stormwater management facilities in single-family residential plats with public streets draining into these facilities. Information presented during the briefing included various types of flow control and water quality treatment facilities the City manages, their intended use in mitigating water quality from roadways, reducing flooding impacts, preventing damage to properties, protecting public safety, protecting environmental resources and me eting regulatory requirements. The briefing provided reasons for assuming maintenance of stormwater management facilities in plats with contributing runoff from public streets. These reasons are summarized in the following list: 1. The City should take responsibility for stormwater management facilities maintenance in plats since they control runoff from public streets and serve multiple property owners. 2. In unincorporated King County, the policy is to require new plats to dedicate a tract for stormwater management facilities with King County assuming ownership and maintenance responsibility. These King County areas that are annexed into the City require that the City assume ownership and maintenance responsibility. 3. Current City residents who live in plats that maintain their own stormwater management facilities pay the same SWU rates as residents who live in areas with publicly maintained stormwater facilities. The City assuming maintenance of the facilities would provide greater equity of City services to all customers. 4. Taking over all privately maintained residential plat stormwater facilities with public area runoff ensures compliance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit (NPDES) requirements and provides the same level of service to all single-family residential customers in plats with public streets. It also eliminates the difficulties of legally enforcing maintenance of these facilities by residential homeowner associations, reduces flooding, reduces maintenance of downstream City systems, and protects water quality and habitat. 5. Problems associated with current City policy would be reduced or eliminated due to the City permitting new projects that have runoff that contribute flows to the downstream stormwater facility that is privately owned and maintained by a AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Mr. Don Persson, Council President Page 3 of 6 September 8, 2010 H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-9999 SSWM Plan\1116 SWUMP IssuePapers\Pond Maintenance Takeover\1003 City Correspondence\100809 Util_Cmttee_Pond_Maint_Policy_Issue_Paper_STLver1.doc\STLtp homeowners association. With the City providing maintenance for these facilities, this concern will be resolved. 6. Legal difficulties with enforcing maintenance, collecting fines and staff time allocated to NPDES permit inspections and enforcement would be eliminated. 7. Concerns about safety and liability to the City associated with the current requirement that homeowner associations maintain their stormwater facilities would be reduced. Trained City personnel would properly maintain vaults (confined space entry), catch basins, ponds, and various facilities in a safe manner especially in newer systems that require more technical knowledge. 8. Prior to the transfer of all privately maintained water quality and flow control facilities, the homeowner associations need to have the facility maintained to City standards so that it functions as it was originally designed. If non-maintained facilities are turned over to the City, more City funding would be needed to bring the facility up to City standards and would require the program be implemented (hire staff and purchase equipment) faster, resulting in a larger rate increase. 9. Takeover of stormwater management facilities in plats with public streets increases the City’s ability to properly operate, maintain, and make future improvements to the facilities if needed. Stormwater facilities in potential annexation areas: King County currently owns and maintains stormwater flow control and water quality facilities in the City’s potential annexation areas. When these areas are annexed into the City, the City assumes ownership and maintenance responsibilities of these facilities. The cost to maintain these facilities is funded by the Surface Water Utility rate, which is paid by all customers in the City, even those customers who live in plats that have homeowner associations that are required to maintain the stormwater management facility in their plat. The proposed Fairwood Annexation area contains approximately 77 stormwater facilities and the proposed West Hill Annexation area contains approximately 16 stormwater facilities. Within the Preserve Our Plateau Potential Annexation Area (PAA) there are approximately 21 stormwater facilities. The number of facilities maintained by King County within the City’s PAA will increase as new single-family residential plats are approved, constructed, and released from bonding by King County. Assumptions: The following assumptions were used in analyzing the pond maintenance policy:  The turnover of maintenance responsibilities to the City assumes the facilities are in single-family plats with public right-of-way. This evaluation of the City taking over stormwater maintenance facilities does not include plats that only serve private roads AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Mr. Don Persson, Council President Page 4 of 6 September 8, 2010 H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-9999 SSWM Plan\1116 SWUMP IssuePapers\Pond Maintenance Takeover\1003 City Correspondence\100809 Util_Cmttee_Pond_Maint_Policy_Issue_Paper_STLver1.doc\STLtp and private residential structures, or stormwater facilities on commercial and industrial properties.  There are 213 facilities in plats that are currently owned and maintained by homeowner associations with public streets that the City would over time assume responsibility to maintain. The total number of stormwater management facilities in single-family residential plats with public streets is 313. The City maintains 100 residential stormwater management facilities. The City had previously assumed maintenance of 33 facilities prior to implementing the current policy and 48 facilities recently turned over to the City from the Benson Hill annexation, seven facilities in the Aqua Barn-New Life annexation, 10 facilities in the Liberty annexation, and two facilities from the Springbrook annexation.  This analysis assumes that the private facility inspection program will inspect all private stormwater management facilities, record inspections, quantify deficiencies and maintenance requirements, and enforce maintenance of deficient facilities. The private facility inspection program would initially focus on inspecting the stormwater management facilities in plats to document any required maintenance needed prior to the transfer of maintenance responsibilities to the City.  Prior to the private facilities being turned over to the City for maintenance, any one-time ‘catch-up’ maintenance, repairs, access issues, and other deficiencies will be the responsibility of the homeowner associations. This will minimize the City’s maintenance costs and have less impact on Surface Water Utility rates. The homeowner associations have the option of bringing the facilities up to City maintenance standards by hiring a private contractor or they can do the work themselves.  It is not recommended that the City take over the facilities without having the homeowner associations first bring the facility up to City maintenance standards, since it would result in significantly higher costs and require immediate implementation of the program.  By having the homeowner associations bring the facilities up to City maintenance standards prior to the City assuming maintenance of the facility, the City’s cost to assume maintenance of the facilities can be spread out over several years.  In 2011, the process of legally transferring the facilities to the City for maintenance would be started by the Surface Water Utility Engineering Section.  The cost of hiring of maintenance staff and budgeting for the purchase and rental of equipment would be phased in over time starting in 2012, depending upon how rapidly facilities are transferred from homeowner associations to the City. In order to implement the program, it is recommended that the 2012 budget include funding to hire two full-time Maintenance Worker III positions and budget to hire four part-time non-regular employees (summer help), funding to purchase a slope mower with trailer, a one-ton flatbed truck and a dewatering pump. The 2013 budget would include funding to hire another two full-time Maintenance Worker III positions, the purchase of another slope mower with trailer, and a one-ton flatbed AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Mr. Don Persson, Council President Page 5 of 6 September 8, 2010 H:\File Sys\SWP - Surface Water Projects\SWP-27 - Surface Water Projects (CIP)\27-9999 SSWM Plan\1116 SWUMP IssuePapers\Pond Maintenance Takeover\1003 City Correspondence\100809 Util_Cmttee_Pond_Maint_Policy_Issue_Paper_STLver1.doc\STLtp truck, along with the funding for rental of equipment, material disposal, and the purchase of materials associated with the facility cleaning and repairs (see attached Single-family Residential Plat Facility Maintenance Cost Summary).  Costs to takeover maintenance of facilities will be further refined during each program budget request period due to variability in yearly equipment rental, labor, materials and quantities, and disposal costs.  Newly constructed stormwater facilities in plats with public streets would also be taken over by the City for maintenance upon completion of the two-year maintenance and defect period following construction. Additional City maintenance staff and equipment would be added over time as new facilities are constructed. Summary of required program resources: The following is a summary of the additional staff, equipment purchases, and other costs associated with the City assuming maintenance of the 213 stormwater facilities in the City that are currently in plats with public streets and are being maintained by homeowner associations (see attached Single-family Residential Plat Facility Maintenance Cost Summary):  The annual additional staff needed for maintenance of these facilities in plats is estimated to be four new FTEs and four seasonal laborers in the Surface Water Utility Maintenance Section assuming little or no export of materials is needed. The estimated annual staff cost is $376,000.  New equipment needed includes two Harper slope mowers with trailers, two dewatering pumps, and two one-ton flat bed trucks. The estimated initial purchase cost of the equipment is $192,000. The estimated annual equipment purchase, O&M, and replacement cost is $64,600.  The annual rental of equipment is estimated to be needed for two months, which includes a dozer, a 10-yard dump truck, and a skid steer track machine. The estimated cost for the temporary rental of equipment is $28,600.  The estimated annual disposal and repair cost of facilities is $24,750. This total assumes little or no extra disposal is needed for each facility that is assumed. The annual material deposition rate in these facilities is variable and difficult to estimate. A budget of $30,000 is estimated to purchase materials needed to make repairs to the facilities.  The cost summary does not include newly constructed stormwater management facilities in plats that would be turned over to the City to maintain after final plat approval. As new facilities in single-family residential plats are constructed or become the Surface Water Utility’s responsibility to maintain due to future annexations, they would be funded by the future revenues based upon the Surface Water Utility rate needed to implement the program and would be included in the normal City’s budget process or as part of the budget adjustment associated with an annexation.

This is based upon 2010 Surface Water Utility revenues.  If the 2011 and 2012 Surface Water Utility revenue increases are approved as currently proposed, the additional revenue increase required to fund the program to assume maintenance of the stormwater facilities in plats will be reduced.  If the Fairwood Annexation is approved, the additional revenue requirements to fund this program would be further reduced due to the additional revenue that would be collected from the new customers. CONCLUSION: The City should assume maintenance of stormwater facilities in single-family residential plats that are currently owned and maintained by homeowner associations. Prior to the City assuming maintenance of the existing stormwater management facilities in plats from homeowner associations, the facility will have to be maintained to meet City stormwater facility maintenance standards. The hiring of the maintenance staff and budgeting for the purchase and rental of equipment and other costs would be phased in starting in 2012, depending upon how rapidly facilities are transferred from homeowner associations to the City.

9. a) New Construction Infrastructure Staffing Recommended Guideline ISSUE: How should the Surface Water Utility Engineering and Maintenance Staff be increased after a certain amount of new storm system infrastructure is constructed as a result of new development, re-development, and new construction? BACKGROUND: The Surface Water Utility was created in 1987 to assist in implementing the City’s Surface Water Management Program (SWM Program). One of the main tasks of the Utility was to improve maintenance of existing drainage facilities and solve flooding problems in Renton. Other services the Surface Water Utility Engineering and Maintenance Service Sections provide are keeping the storm system clean, maintaining records, mapping, planning, responding to complaints, completing repairs and inspections, detecting and eliminating spills, managing contracts and programs, designing, permitting, constructing both minor and major system improvements, technical assistance to internal and external customers, coordinating with regional partners, and providing emergency response. During 1992 the City had approximately 165 miles of storm drain pipe. At that time there were 6.2 maintenance workers and 4.0 engineering workers providing Surface Water Utility services. Although these workers maintained a number of different types of drainage facilities, the miles of storm drain pipe is a simple and reasonable metric that is representative of the size of the storm system as a whole. Based upon the 1992 data, the level of service provided by the utility was 3.75 maintenance workers per 100 miles of pipe and 2.4 engineering workers per 100 miles of pipe. Between 1992 and 2007, the construction of new infrastructure has grown, yet the number of full time Surface Water Utility Engineering and Maintenance employees remained the same and did not keep pace with the growing infrastructure. In 2007, the City had staffing levels of 4.7 maintenance workers and 5.3 engineering workers dedicated to the Surface Water Utility. By the end of 2007, the City’s system had grown to 233 miles of storm drain pipe. As a result, the level of service provided by the utility had dropped to 2.0 maintenance and 2.3 engineering workers per 100 miles of pipe. This means that the Utility was no longer able to achieve the same level of service that was provided in 1992. New storm drainage system infrastructure is added to the City’s system within its current City limits each year. This infill of drainage infrastructure is a result of new development, redevelopment, street improvement projects, and drainage system improvement projects. Over time, a significant amount of drainage infrastructure is added to the system that must be managed by the Utility. Historically this additional volume of infrastructure and service requirements has been absorbed by a fixed number of existing maintenance and engineering staff and resources. Therefore the level of service that could be provided was fixed while the volume of infrastructure increased over time resulting in a decreased level of service. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) In 2007, the City obtained coverage under the Department of Ecology’s NPDES Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit for discharging stormwater from its system to waters of the State. To be in compliance with this Permit, the City must implement multiple programs to manage and control stormwater. The program requirements include: • Reporting and Recordkeeping • Stormwater Planning (new in 2019 permit) • Public Education and Outreach • Public Involvement and Participation • Mapping and Documentation • Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination • Controlling Runoff from New Development, Redevelopment and Construction Sites • Operations and Maintenance including private facility inspections; and catch basin or storm system cleaning • Source Control for Existing Development (new in 2019 permit) • And other NPDES requirements as the permit is revised In order for the City to maintain the level of service that was established in 1992, it is necessary for the Utility to maintain the minimum level of service of one new maintenance worker for every 27 miles of storm pipe added and one new engineering worker when 41 miles of storm pipe are added to the system. It should be understood that this metric will change over time and will need to be revised periodically depending on new stormwater regulations. In addition, while the lineal foot of pipe was selected as the basis for consideration, the City will also need to assess other stormwater infrastructure increases. For example, there may be a large increase in water quality treatment facilities as a result of new regulations. These water quality facilities typically require more intensive maintenance. It is also recommended that while the City focus on the length of pipe for this guideline, it should also track the maintenance demands of other facilities such as water quality facilities. This guideline is intended to be used to maintain the level of service provided by the Surface Water Utility as the City grows due to new developments and redevelopments within the existing City limits only. Surface Water Utility staffing and resource needs due to annexation are being developed separately. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Surface Water Utility staffing level be increased by one new maintenance FTE for 27 miles of added storm water pipe and one new engineering FTE for 41 miles of new storm water pipe added to the system inventory. The request for the additional staffing due to additional new construction infrastructure would be proposed and approved as part of the City’s budget process.

Peak flows for the 2-year recurrence interval were not available. 6. A subsequent report prepared by GHD modeled the 25-year future condition flow at 175.0 (Scenario 2A).

B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE APPENDIX C COST ESTIMATES AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Appendix C Cost Estimates Cost estimates were developed a number of ways including; prior studies, City input, and previous cost estimates developed for the 2009 plan based on field reconnaissance of problem areas. For the projects where planning-level cost estimates were available in 2007, or if project costs were previously developed in an earlier study or design project, those costs were escalated to 2007 dollars using a yearly inflation factor of 2.5 percent. Because of the economic downturn, the cost using 2007 dollars was not changed and assumed to be equivalent to 2012 dollars. Costs were escalated from 2012 to 2020 dollars using a yearly inflation factor of 3.5%. This appendix is organized as follows:  Appendix C-1 lists all flooding problems and identifies whether the project has cost backup and whether the backup is in Appendix C-2 or Appendix C-3. Projects are organized by basin. In some cases, cost estimates were provided by the City and there is no backup available.  Appendix C-2 includes the projects where project costs were developed in prior studies. This table lists the study or report that contains the estimate, the year of the estimate, and the inflated cost.  Appendix C-3 includes projects where there is detailed backup. Note that although detailed spreadsheets were prepared for these projects, several project estimates were based upon field reconnaissance only without any engineering analysis and therefore costs should be considered conceptual. Projects that have been removed by the City for the 2020 update have been crossed out, and costs for the remaining projects have been escalated to 2020 dollars.

Introduction and Background The update of the City’s draft Surface Water Utility Management Plan includes an assessment of current regulations and resources needed to comply with those regulations. Federal, state, and local regulations, permits, and codes that guide stormwater management have continually evolved since the early 1990s as stormwater impacts on natural resources, water quality, and ecological health have received greater attention. As a result, local jurisdictions must adapt their programs to meet current standards and permit requirements. This memorandum documents Renton’s current regulatory status and provides recommended program modifications to meet regulatory requirements now and the near future. 2. Methodology and Data Sources The draft 2012 Surface Water Utility Management Plan (draft Plan) provided a comprehensive list and description of federal, state, and local regulations that provides the regulatory framework under which the Utility operates. Regulations listed in the draft Plan were reviewed to identify updates or changes since 2012 that impact how the Utility operates. If no significant updates or changes were identified, it was assumed that the Utility is complying with current regulations and there is no additional resources or actions necessary for compliance. The most significant change since the draft Plan is the new NPDES Phase II MS4 Permit. Since the draft Plan, the Utility has gone through an entire NPDES Phase II Permit cycle; a new cycle with new conditions began on August 1, 2019. It was assumed that the Utility is meeting all conditions that were in the preceding permit and only new conditions in the new permit require additional resources or actions. Table 1 lists the regulations reviewed and whether Utility resources or actions are needed for compliance. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 2 12/17/2020 Table 1. List of Regulations Regulation Resources or Actions Needed for Compliance Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4-3-050 Critical Areas Ordinance No additional resources or actions necessary. RMC 4-3-090 Shoreline Master Program No additional resources or actions necessary. RMC 4-4-030 Development Guidelines and Regulations No additional resources or actions necessary. RMC 4-4-060 Grading, Excavation, and Mining Regulations No additional resources or actions necessary. RMC 4-6-030 Drainage (Surface Water) Standards No additional resources or actions necessary.

Map size and material of all known outfalls and map all known connections from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (MS4) to privately owned stormwater systems. Develop and implement source control program for existing development. 42 USC 4321 National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) No additional resources or actions necessary. 16 USC 1531 Endandered Species Act (ESA) No additional resources or actions necessary. 3. Regulatory Compliance Needs Based on a review of the current regulations under which the Utility operates, additional staff resources will be needed to (1) comply with the current City’s NPDES Phase II permit, (2) coordinate with regional partners on TMDLS, flood plain management and ESA-listed salmon recovery, and (3) coordinate internally for the City’s next update of the Comprehensive Plan. The latter two items will require significantly less time commitment than the first; an additional staff person will likely be necessary to AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 3 12/17/2020 assist with development and implementation of NPDES-related programs. A discussion of the specific compliance needs and recommendations is provided below. 3.1 NPDES Stormwater Planning Program The NPDES Phase II Permit Condition S5.C.1 outlines components of what is expected for a stormwater planning program. Some of the elements are a continuation of the previous permit, including continued review and update of LID codes, rules and standards to encourage use of LID, as well as remove barriers in the development code that prevent use of LID principles and LID BMPs. Additionally, Condition S5.C.1.b involves coordination with long-range plan updates. The Utility is coordinating with the Planning department for the update of the City Comprehensive Plan, which will be adopted in 2023. This coordination effort would likely occur whether or not required by the permit, however, the permit requires a response to a series of questions in the Stormwater Planning Annual Report about how the Utility addressed stormwater impacts on water quality in the Comprehensive Plan or equivalent long- term plans by March 31, 2021. A follow-up report responding to the same questions related to water quality, land-use and growth is due on or before January 1, 2023. The most significant change is the addition of watershed prioritization and development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan for a priority catchment area. The steps needed to comply with this condition include the following: 1. Develop a watershed inventory and conduct a receiving water assessment including expected stormwater management influence for each watershed. 2. Prioritize watersheds based on receiving water conditions and expected potential stormwater management influences (i.e., which watersheds would most benefit from stormwater actions) and select high priority watershed to develop a Stormwater Management Action Plan. 3. Identify actions in the high priority watershed, including capital (i.e., stormwater retrofits), operational (i.e. enhanced maintenance, source control investigations, etc.), policy or code- related (i.e., land management), or public education and outreach strategies and projects to improve water quality in the watershed, including a budget and implementation schedule. Table 2 lists some recommended strategies for complying with this condition, including anticipated resource needs on a low, medium, high scale by level of effort. It is anticipated that existing City NPDES staff can accomplish most of this requirement, but consultant support may be needed for the Stormwater Management Action Plan development. The receiving water assessment must be done by March 2022, the receiving water prioritization deadline is June 2022, and the SMAP is due in March 2023. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 4 12/17/2020 Table 2. Stormwater Planning Tasks and Level of Effort Task Level of Effort Description Result Watershed Inventory, Receiving Water Assessment and Influence Medium (500 hours) Use data that is already available. Watershed boundaries are delineated, use available water quality data and beneficial uses, conduct GIS analysis of potential influence using existing stormwater facilities, potential redevelopment, open space, and natural resources layers. Table of Watershed Inventory Prioritize Watersheds Medium- High (700 hours) Develop criteria for prioritization, use data in watershed inventory table to prioritize. Identify high priority watershed for which to develop SMAP. Choose watershed where projects can be expected to be completed and fit within other City goals. Sorted Table of Watershed Inventory by Priority and Selected High Priority Watershed Stormwater Management Action Plan High (800 hours) Develop a plan to address issues in selected watershed, including range of projects. The level of effort will depend on whether new projects are developed, or if projects are already ready to go for the watershed selected. A consultant is likely to be needed for this effort due to the large number of estimated hours. Plan with Projects, Strategies, Budget, and Schedule for Implementation 3.2 NPDES MS4 Mapping and Documentation The NPDES Phase II Permit Condition S5.C.4 outlines new components for stormwater system mapping, including the following:  Size and material for all known MS4 outfalls, to be collected during the normal course of business (e.g. during field screening, inspection, or maintenance) and records update beginning no later than January 1, 2020.  Complete mapping of all known connections from the MS4 to a privately owned stormwater system by August 1, 2023. The City continually updates its stormwater system inventory as new infrastructure comes on-line, modifications are made in the field, or systems are abandoned. This condition will likely not require additional resources because it can be accomplished by field crews and the GIS specialist in the normal course of business. However, coordination is necessary to ensure that this team is aware of the type of data that needs to be collected, including methodology for recording the data, or what to do if the information is unclear (i.e., material type, ownership, etc.). AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 5 12/17/2020 Below are options for accomplishing this requirement include the following: 1. Instead of having all field personnel take on the duty of collecting data on MS4 outfalls, assign this task to crews that inspect and clean the system to meet NPDES condition S5.C.7 Operations and Maintenance. The City cleans all pipes, ditches, and catch basins and inlets within a circuit once during the permit term. Part of the system will be completely mapped during this permit term, and eventually the entire system will be mapped as all circuits are inspected and cleaned. 2. Assign private facility inspection staff and source control program staff to identify connections from the MS4 to privately owned stormwater system. This will be one way to systematically identify and map privately owned systems. 3. Alert maintenance crews and inspection and cleaning crews to inform stormwater management staff if privately owned systems are identified during CCTV inspection or other methods. 3.3 NPDES Source Control Program for Existing Development The NPDES Phase II Permit Condition S5.C.8 outlines components for implementing a source control program that targets pollution-generating public and private properties for the inspection, implementation of source control measures, and enforcement if necessary. The steps needed to comply with this condition include the following: 1. Develop an ordinance or other enforceable document to require the application of source control BMPs for pollutant generating sources. The City’s code already has language that requires source control BMPs and references the RMC 4-6-030. Section I adopts the April 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual by reference and Section J.4. Elimination of Illicit Connection and/or Illicit Discharge requires implementation of source control or treatment BMPs. The City may want to review the code and determine if the language is adequate to meet City and permit goals. 2. Establish inventory of public and private institutional, commercial and industrial sites that have the potential to generate pollutants to the MS4. 3. Develop and implement an inspection program for sites identified in the inventory. 4. Develop and implement a progressive enforcement policy that requires sites to comply with stormwater requirements. 5. Develop and implement a staff source control training program. Table 3 lists some recommended strategies for complying with this condition, including anticipated resource needs on a low, medium, high scale by level of effort. It is anticipated that additional City NPDES staff will be needed for this requirement. Ordinance adoption and site inventory must be completed by August 2022, and inspection program and enforcement implementation must begin by January 2023. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 6 12/17/2020 Table 3. Source Control Program Tasks and Level of Effort Task Level of Effort Description Result Develop an Ordinance or Other Enforceable Document Low - High (~20 -100 hours) Review existing code language and determine if it needs revision. Level of effort will depend on whether a new ordinance is developed. New Ordinance or Keep Existing Establish Inventory of Public and Private Sites High (~200 hours) Use SIC and NAICS codes to identify sites that have potential to generate pollutants to MS4. Include sites with water quality complaints. Use GIS to develop map and database of sites. Database of Sites Develop and Implement a Source Control Inspection Program Very High (~1,000 hours) Develop inspection protocol, including but not limited to forms, tracking, communications, and educational materials for business owners. Implement program for 20% of site inventory. Level of effort depends on the number of sites for inspection. Program development is expected to take ~200 hours. Program Implementation and Documentation Develop progressive enforcement policy Med- High (~300 hours) Develop and/or implement existing enforcement policies. Evaluate options for new enforcement methods if existing policies aren’t working. Reach out to other jurisdictions to find out what works for them. Updated or New Enforcement Policy Staff source control training program Low- Med (~40 hours) The level of effort for this task depends on the number of staff assigned to the source control program. Some of the most effective source control programs are ones where fewer staff are responsible for implementation and enforcement. Personal connections can be made with business owners to encourage best practices, with the understanding that the inspectors also have authority for enforcement if violations occur. Staff Training and Outreach to Source Control Inspectors from Other Cities AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) 7 12/17/2020 There may be overlap with types of City inspections conducted at the sites developed for the inventory. It would be useful to find out what types of inspections are required or routinely done in other City departments, including fats, oil and grease inspections for the wastewater system, private stormwater facility inspections, solid waste outreach to multi-family sites, and outreach from water department staff for pollution prevention in aquifer protection areas. Sites that overlap with multiple inspections, could be flagged for a combined visit by one staff person, staggered visits on opposite schedules for efficiency, or a coordinated site visit by multiple inspectors. A matrix to determine which sites overlap could be helpful. 3.4 Coordination with Regional Partners The City of Renton overlaps the watershed boundary for the Green River and Soos Creek, both of which have approved or developing TMDLs. Renton will be expected to participate in these TMDLS, even though participation may be more limited than other jurisdictions due to the City’s location and land area in each watershed. While there is a regulatory need to be addressed, the resources needed to address participation in TMDLs is expected to be low and existing City staff should be able to manage the workload. If Ecology were to require the City to take action and develop a monitoring plan to track water quality in Soos Creek for the TMDL, the City may be expected to collect monthly water quality samples and conduct flow monitoring at one or two locations in the portion of Soos Creek within the City’s jurisdiction. This would require staff or consultant time to collect water quality samples and installation of flow meters. The annual costs for the City of Kenmore to analyze data from 5 locations for the Swamp Creek TMDL ranges from $4,000 to $18,000 based on a review of their budget data from 2017 through 2019. Kenmore’s 2020 budget allocates $6,000 for Swamp Creek TMDL monitoring and $30,000 for stream telemetry, which collects stream flow data on Swamp Creek and other locations. Staff time is not included in this budget, although a reasonable estimate for Renton would be approximately 60 – 70 hours annually (3 hours per month for sample collection and 30 – 40 hours to write and submit a report documenting results to Ecology). An additional 80 hours would be required to write the Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) describing the sampling and analysis protocol. The City currently has an interlocal agreement (ILA) to improve salmon habitat in Watershed Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs) 8 and 9 (Cedar River and Green River watersheds, respectively). Through its work with these WRIAs, the City addresses issues around the “threatened” ESA listing of Chinook salmon and coordinates with other jurisdictions on salmon recovery. Additional workload is not expected. Floodplain management and coordination with King County and FEMA already occurs with the City of Renton, so additional efforts needed to address existing flood plain maps and issues with depictions of flood hazard areas is likely an on-going discussion and will not need additional City resources. 3.5 Coordination with Planning Staff for 2023 City Comprehensive Plan City Utility staff will need to coordinate with planning staff for the 2023 City Comprehensive Plan to ensure that goals and policies reflect the direction of the Utility. This effort is not expected to require additional resources. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) O SBORN C ONSULTING, I NC. B ELLEVUE • S EATTLE • S POKANE APPENDIX E PROGRAMMATIC AND OPERATIONAL FACT SHEETS AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) Surface Water Utility System Plan Update Project ID: 2020-01 Culvert Assessment Preliminary Level of Effort: 570 hrs. Project Description: The objective of this program is to conduct an inventory of the City’s culverts to assess fish passage and develop a prioritization scheme to proactively improve fish passage and identify opportunities for habitat improvements in association with other agencies. The scope of this project includes (1) developing an inventory of stream culverts, (2) assessing the City’s stream culverts for fish passage and potential access to fish habitat (i.e., availability of fish habitat upstream of the culvert), and (3) prioritization and ranking of the culvert inventory. Benefits: • Proactive strategy for culvert improvement before the City is required to meet fish passage obligations Improved fish passage and habitat accessibility as opportunities for culvert improvements arise. Challenges: • Assessment of fish use and presence in the absence of data. • Staff and budget for new program • Improving fish passage may need to be coupled with water quality improvement to promote fish utilization. Assumptions and Considerations: The following are assumptions and considerations for the City to develop an inventory of its stream culverts, assess the culverts for fish passage, and prioritize for replacement and/or improvement. • The City does not have a fish passage improvement program to fund fish passage projects. Culverts have not been assessed for fish passage. Fish passage improvement projects implemented so far were completed either by with other agencies, or due to permitting requirements. • The State of Washington is required to resolve fish passage issues on its culverts due to a U.S. District Court Decision regarding Native Treaty rights; it is anticipated that future rulings may require Counties and Cities to do the same. • A brief review of the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife SalmonScape application (https://apps.wdfw.wa.gov/salmonscape/map.html) indicates the City has several stream culverts that are full or partial fish passage barriers. • The City’s GIS system does not appear to differentiate the types of culverts (i.e., stream culverts vs. ditch culverts). • The field evaluation will be conducted by a fish biologist and an ecologist. For estimating purposes, it is assumed that up to 4 culverts can be assessed in a day. • Based on the review of SalmonScape, it is estimated that 60 to 70 stream culverts will require field review and inventory. AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) • Prioritization criteria may include categories of culverts (high, medium, and low priority) or ranking from highest to lowest, depending on what is most useful to the City. Prioritization criteria is likely to include type of barrier (full, partial, unknown, etc.), type of fish usage (anadromous, resident), life histories of fish using stream reach (i.e., is barrier present when fish use would occur? Is culvert a barrier to adults, juveniles, etc.?), habitat availability upstream of the barrier, and habitat quality. Other factors may also be considered. Recommendations: The following tasks are recommended for this programmatic action: 1. Develop inventory of City stream culverts by intersecting culvert GIS layer with stream GIS layer. Compare culvert inventory to culverts shown on WDFW SalmonScape. 2. Conduct a field evaluation of the City’s culverts located on fish-bearing streams (starting with verification of the WDFW list). The evaluation will include a general condition of the stream, condition of the culvert including conditions that would render it impassable to fish all the time or during flow certain conditions, and general habitat availability upstream of the culvert. 3. Develop prioritization criteria and prioritize culverts for replacement or improvement based on the potential to improve habitat availability to salmonids or other fish species. Planning Level Effort: Task Description Deliverable Level of Effort (hrs) 1. Develop culvert inventory. Use GIS to select all City culverts located on streams. GIS layer of stream culverts and list of culverts including attributes such as diameter, material, location, and stream name. 50 2. Culvert assessment for fish passage. Assess up to 70 culverts to evaluate fish passage and habitat conditions. Up to 17.5 field days (4 culverts per day) will be needed, with the assumption that two field staff conduct the assessment. Technical memorandum describing methodology, culvert assessment field notes describing conditions and photo documentation, table ranking culverts for replacement or improvements. 380 (280 field, 100 documentation) 3.

Project Description: The objective of this project is to meet the August 2019 NPDES Phase II MS4 Permit condition S5.C.1.d which requires the City to develop a Stormwater Management Action Plan for a high priority watershed. The scope of this project includes (1) developing an inventory of the watersheds within the City’s jurisdiction assess beneficial uses and stormwater management influences, (2) watershed and receiving water prioritization, and (3) development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan for the high priority watershed. Benefits: • Compliance with state and federal regulations • Strategic planning for water quality management • Protection of receiving waters within the City’s jurisdiction. • Development of CIP projects that are good candidates for Ecology funding Challenges: • Coordinating City land management and development strategies to improve water quality. • Differentiating beneficial uses and stormwater management influences to select high priority watersheds. Assumptions and Considerations: The following are assumptions and considerations for the City to develop and implement development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan to meet Condition S5.C.1.d in the NPDES Phase II MS4 Permit. • The City has an existing inventory of its watersheds including GIS mapping and basic characteristics including size and area within the City of Renton that discharges to the waterbody. • Ecology’s guidance document, “Stormwater Management Action Planning Guidance- Phase I and Western Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permits,” Publication 19-10-010, dated August 2019 will be used by the City for reference on how to develop and implement the Stormwater Management Action Plan. • No new data will be collected to conduct the analysis to support development of a Stormwater Management Action Plan. Existing water quality and designated use data may include water quality data collected from previous studies, basin analyses, and publicly available electronic data such as Ecology’s Water Quality Assessment (https://ecology.wa.gov/Water-Shorelines/Water-quality/Water- improvement/Assessment-of-state-waters-303d and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife’s SalmonScape application (http://apps.wdfw.wa.gov/salmonscape/ ). • Watershed inventory will include basic land cover data available from City GIS data, including but not limited to the distribution of current zoning types (i.e., commercial, single-family, multi-family, open space, etc.), predicted growth areas, impervious surface coverage, road length or right-of-way area, length of stormwater pipes or conveyance network in the watershed, critical areas or otherwise protected areas, and number and type of stormwater flow control and/or water quality treatment facilities in the watershed.

9. a) Surface  Water Utility  System Plan  Update   Project ID: 2020‐05  Source Control Program for Existing Development  (NPDES Phase II Permit S5.C.8)  Preliminary Level of Effort: 1900 hrs.  Project Description:  The objective of this project is to meet the August 2019 NPDES Phase II MS4 Permit condition S5.C.8 which  requires the City to implement a source control program that targets pollution‐generating public and private  properties for inspection, implements source control measures, and enforces source control BMP regulations  if necessary.   The scope of this project includes (1) review of the City's existing code to determine if current code language is  adequate to meet the permit requirement and/or development of an ordinance or other enforceable  document that requires source control BMPs, (2) an inventory of public and private sites that have the  potential to generate pollutants to the City's MS4, (3) an inspection program for sites identified in the  inventory, (4) a progressive enforcement policy to require site compliance with stormwater requirements, and  (5) a source control staff training program.  Benefits:   Compliance with state and federal  regulations   Reduction in pollutants discharged  to the City’s MS4 system.   Community building with local  businesses to reach City goal of  providing high quality customer  service while meeting service  demands.  Challenges:   Coordination with existing business inspection programs  within the Utility and in other City departments to avoid  burdening businesses with multiple inspections.   Enforcing site compliance with stormwater  requirements.   Staffing new program.   Widespread community belief that their businesses are  grandfathered into the regulations effective at the time  they were permitted   Assumptions and Considerations:  The following are assumptions and considerations for the City to implement a Source Control program to meet  the requirements of S5.C.8 in the NPDES Phase II MS4 Permit.     This is a new program for the City; an additional staff person in the surface water engineering or  maintenance section will be needed to implement the program.   Renton Municipal Code (RMC) 4‐6‐030. Section I adopts the 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution  Prevention Manual. This manual describes required best management practices (BMPs) and  maintenance activities for different types of business activities.   RMC 4‐6‐030. Section J. Discharge Prohibition describes illicit and allowable discharges to the MS4 and  procedures that must occur after a business or other entity is found in violation of this code section,  including implementation of source control or treatment BMPs. This section describes enforcement  procedures.   Several jurisdictions in the region are implementing successful source control programs; those programs  can be used as a model or template for Renton’s incipient program. Examples include City of Kirkland,  City of Seattle, City of Shoreline, and Snohomish County.   AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) o The City of Kirkland includes an informative page on the City’s website that has links to references  and documents to assist businesses in implementation of source control measures on their  properties. It also describes what businesses can expect during a City site inspection. Kirkland  encourages good business practices by highlighting businesses that are implementing excellent  stormwater management BMPs or have made significant improvements.  o The City of Seattle links to a short informational video showing how to implement simple BMPs for a  typical automotive facility, for which the video spokesperson is the shop owner.  o The City of Shoreline offers assistance for business owners to implement BMPs at their sites,  providing small incentives for participation.  o Snohomish County Code Chapter 7.53 Water Pollution Control outlines escalating monetary  penalties for violations depending on the public health and environmental impacts of the violation,  willfulness or knowledge of the violation, responsiveness of the violator, and economic benefit  accrued by the person(s) responsible for the violation.   City GIS and business license tracking systems will be used to map businesses included in the business  source control inspection inventory and track data. Data collection may occur using existing electronic  applications already used by the City in IDDE inspections or other field data collection efforts (e.g.  Cityworks). Alternatively, data could be collected with ArcGIS Collector, Survey123, or NPDES Pro. It is  recommended that a standardized electronic collection method is used that link to the database or  system where inspections are stored.    Recommendations:  The following tasks are needed to develop and implement a source control program:  1. Review existing code language and determine if revisions are needed or desired. Renton has an existing  code that adopts the 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual and prohibits illicit  discharges to the MS4. The City may wish to enhance the code with additional enforcement language,  including monetary penalties, but the existing code provides for enforcement of violations. An  ordinance must be adopted and made effective by August 1, 2022.  2. An inventory of public and private sites will need to be developed based on the potential for site  activities to generate and discharge pollutants to the MS4. North American Industry Classification  System (NAICS) or Standard Industrial Code (SIC) business codes are useful to identify businesses that fit  the categories that align with activities in the 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention  Manual (i.e., vehicle repair and maintenance, woodcraft, landscaping, manufacturing, etc.). Additionally,  sites that are pollutant generating sources based on complaints must be included in the inventory  (Appendix 8 of Permit). The inventory should be geo‐referenced and an ArcGIS coverage should be  developed that can be used in the collection of business inspection data by field personnel, either  electronically or on paper maps. Once developed the inventory will need to be updated as necessary to  ensure that the list is accurate and complete. The inventory must be done by August 1, 2022.  3. Develop and implement procedures for business inspection, data collection, data storage,  communications, business education, and tracking by January 1, 2023.   a. Send communication to all site owners/tenants/operators listed in the inventory to provide  information about the source control program including requirements for pollution prevention,  available resources, and City business inspections.   b. Create schedule for inspections. The permit requires a 20% inspection rate annually including 100%  of sites identified through credible complaints. The businesses should be prioritized for inspection  based on criteria determined during program set up.   AGENDA ITEM # 9. a) c. Determine who is going to complete the inspections. Can this be done in conjunction with other inspection duties? Does the site inventory align with site inventories for other purposes (i.e., stormwater facility inspection, IDDE program, FOG, aquifer protection, etc.)? d. Develop standard operating procedures for business inspections, including pre-visit research, communication protocols, standard educational materials and resources to provide, data collection methods (electronic or paper checklists), number and types of photographs, and post-visit completion and or follow-up if necessary. Ecology has an MS4 Source Control Business Inspection Template available for use and the Business Inspection Group (BIG) will be developing a guidance manual and training resources in the future (https://www.wastormwatercenter.org/big-business- inspection-group/). e. Determine how the business inspection data will be stored and tracked, in CityWorks, GIS, Access database, or other database systems? 4. Implement existing enforcement policy or develop a new progressive enforcement policy if the existing policies aren’t working. The City’s existing code for prohibiting and eliminating illicit discharges and connections to the MS4 relies on education and outreach, and written notice of violation first. Any violation can also be declared a nuisance under RMC 1 -3-3, which leads to escalating enforcement measures. The City should review its current code and enforcement policies and evaluate whether updates are necessary. Enforcement must be implemented by January 1, 2023. 5. Develop a training program for staff responsible for implementing the source control program, including mentoring, on-line videos, ride-along opportunities with other jurisdictions, and other off-site training specific to implementation of best management practices and inspection protocols. Planning Level Effort: Task Description Deliverable Level of Effort (hrs) 1. Develop an ordinance or other enforceable document Review existing code language; revise, if necessary.
