The properties are currently mostly parking area or container storage which include one office building per property operating and assorted miscellaneous building structures like a scale, and loading dock structure as an example. The general topography of both parcels is relatively flat on the 35000 property and the 35050 property rolls to the southwest at 2% slope to Pacific Highway South or S 351st Street to the south of both properties. The general Google Earth elevations 250’ AMSL to 244’ AMSL from northeast to southwest across both parcels. The property to the north and east is 35002 and 1405 which is the Federal Way Crossings Retail structures (former Flying J’s Truckstop), to the south is King County Fire Protection District structures, and across Pacific Highway South is 1019 Neumeier Engineering structures. All of these buildings are of commercial or private ownership and are not residential. The properties (Site) are King County parcels #2021049163, #2021049162 for property 35000, and parcels # 2021049155, 2021049043 for 35050 Pacific Highway S. .72 acres, .87 acres, 1.28 acres, and 1.32 acres respectively per the King County Assessor. Figure 1- Site Map, Shows the Site parcel configuration with overlay of the proposed structures, and Figure 2 – Extended Site Map, identifies reasonably ascertainable adjacent observed well locations pertinent to discussing the conceptual Site hydrogeological conditions. Multiple additional figures exist in the Appendix – Supporting Documents that were used to research conditions in support of the assessment. Lakehaven Water District Well 15 exists approximately 750’ to the west of the Site. The well is accessed by S 351st Street south of the Neumeier property, the Site is within the 6 month, and 1 year time of travel wellhead protection area based on the Department of Health SWAP database. 2.0 SCOPE OF WORK- The scope of LGS services was to evaluate the existing hydrogeologic conditions at the Site and provide a hydrogeologic assessment of the Site in respect to the protected wellhead areas and provide an opinion if the project/Site redevelopment is protective of human health and the environment. The following explains the scope in further detail; 1) Review existing Site proposed plan/feature layout (Valley Avenue LLC Properties- Concrete Plant), available topographic maps, soil profile (USDA Soil Survey), geology & hydrogeology (USGS/DNR), local well logs (DOE), Local Department of Health well resource protection maps, and Wellhead Guidance Document (DOH), National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), King County Assessor page for parcel details, Federal Way Revised Code FWRC 19.145.490 Development within critical aquifer recharge areas, and other pertinent documents for preparing the hydrogeological assessment. 2) Perform a Site visit to identify surficial runoff potential, catch basins, adjacent creeks and other LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -3- sensitive/critical area receptors within 200’ of the Site, well 15 location, surficial topographical changes, and final site developmental concept. 3) Evaluate groundwater flow directions, hydraulic conductivities/transmissivities of aquitards and aquifers pertinent to the Site, and background aquifer properties within the vicinity of the Site to prepare a conceptual Site hydrogeological model. 4) Preparing this technical memorandum to adequately justify the redevelopment being protective of human health and the environment per Federal Way Revised Code FWRC 19.145.490(2)(c) Development within critical aquifer recharge areas, aforementioned 6 month and 1 year time of travel protective wellhead areas. 3.0 SITE CONDITIONS- According to the King County Assessor website a 1 story metal fabricated building was recorded on the Site in 1974. This building is recorded as being one story at approximately 4,400 square feet. During the Site visit it was observed that an office building existed on the 35050 property, and the building mentioned above was in use as well on the 35000 property. A scale and loading dock were present on the 35000 property and generally the properties were asphalt paved mostly or had gravel surface coverings. The topography was relatively flat on 35000 property and slightly rolling to the southwest on 35050 property at about 2%. The topography was from northeast to southwest 250’ AMSL to approximately 244’ AMSL. See Appendix, Supporting Documents – Site Photographic Record. LGS also observed Well 15 location off of S 351st Street to identify any potential critical wetlands or areas on the surface. There appeared to be a sharp topographical change which appeared to be a part of the Hylebos wetland watershed draining to the southwest. The properties, in all cardinal directions, are fully developed. 4.0 SURFICIAL GEOLOGIC SETTING- Site surficial geology was reviewed using USDA Soil Web survey. The Soil Web Survey describes the soils as Everett-Alderwood gravelly sandy loams, 6-15 percent slopes at the property. These soils produce terrace like landforms. The parent materials are described as glacial outwash with a component of volcanic ash in the part. The survey states the restrictive layer is greater than 80” and water table is greater than 80 inches. The soils are somewhat excessively drained. A Site USGS surficial geologic and hydrogeology map review showed the Site being located on Qvt, Quaternary (Pleistocene) Glacial Till deposits, (A2 aquitard, USGS) where over consolidated soil matrix of clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, and boulders were overridden with approximately one mile thick ice glacier which over compacted the soils present at the site. Appendix, Lidar-Revised Geologic Map of the Poverty Bay 7.5’ Quadrangle, King and Pierce Counties, Washington, By Tabor and others 2014. During the Site visit it appeared that two main terraces, or elevation contours existed. One terrace was the Site and surrounding development and the lower one was surrounding the well which appears to be the Hylebos wetland grade. It appears that both the wetland is at the elevation of the upper undefined minor aquifer that exists below the Site and outlets from the formation into the wetland at approximately 200’ LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -4- AMSL. This rests upon the till overall and is the result of the erosion of the area down to the wetland elevations within the till. This till is approximately 88’ thick based on the cross reference of well 15 well log screened interval being identified at approximately 132’ AMSL, from a surface elevation of approximately 220’ AMSL. The well 15 is within a high production aquifer known as the Redondo Milton Channel (RMC). The hydrogeology is further described in the next section. 5.0 HYDROGEOLOGIC SETTING- LGS reviewed 12 Department of Ecology well logs and Toxics Cleanup Sites within reasonable proximity to the Site (up to 1/2 mile) to establish the common hydrogeologic properties and geology that define different depths of domestic drinking water aquifers within a reasonable proximity to the Site. There is one minor confined aquifer that was identified in a Toxics cleanup Site resource protection wells located to the east of the Site. The wells identified a low permeability aquifer that had a hydraulic conductivity of 2.8 Ft/D equivalent to empirically a sand matrix on average (Heath 1983). It appears the high production well is much deeper, confined, and estimated mathematically from the initial pump data to have a hydraulic conductivity of approximately 280 Ft/D over the screened interval of 52’, artesian conditions to 8’ below the surface, likely the Redondo Milton Channel known to be present, south and north of the Site. The common confined aquifer is A3 (USGS) also known as Qva an advance outwash common to the region, comprehensively identified the USGS hydrogeology report, Hydrogeologic Framework, Groundwater Movement, and Water Budget in the Puyallup River Watershed and Vicinity, Pierce and King Counties, Washington. This aquifer is mainly found beneath till terraces in the south Puget Sound Region. The review of differing local depths of wells near the Site A3 for production wells, see Figure 3, Geological Cross Section A-A’ to see identified wells in the area used for conceptual presentation and assessment for this Site. These well logs are compared to the report by USGS for hydrogeologic sequences by lithologic properties, Aquifer vs Confining Materials. See Appendix, Supporting Documents – Hydrogeologic Framework, Groundwater Movement, and Water Budget in the Puyallup River Watershed and Vicinity, Pierce and King Counties, Washington. Table 1 (hydrostratigraphic units) The “Well 15” well log shows the following; from surface to 36’, described as hardpan and tight, an unconsolidated matrix of clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobble, and boulders corresponding to unit Qvt, A2 USGS aquitard (found in other local logs), it is assumed this till extends to approximately 88’ due to the screened interval beginning at this point and the well being artesian to 8’ once this till terminated. At 88’ the well penetrates the A3, Qva Aquifer and continues to 144’ below the surface where a fine sand is encountered. The well was cased from surface to 90’ with 16” steel case. From 58’ to 145’, the well was sleeved with 12” case gravel packed and screened from 88’ to 140’ with the upper 5’ being .025” (25 slot), and the lower 47’ of screen being .050” (50 slot). This well construction and final depth are consistent with the wells reviewed in the area. See Google Earth Image with reviewed wells in Appendix, Supporting Documents. See Appendix, Supporting Documents for Site Photographs, referenced well logs, geological, hydrogeological maps. This table below correlates the well log interpretation with published sources such as Hydrogeologic Framework, Groundwater Movement, and Water Budget in the Puyallup River Watershed and Vicinity, Pierce and King Counties, Washington. LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -5- Interval (ft) Elevation AMSL (well 15) Unit Description – “Well 15” / “Corliss”, 750’ SW/500’ SE of Site, approximately 220’/250’ AMSL), 0-88 220’-132’ Qvt-A2 Glacial Till- Gray gravel with sand and silt (Aquitard) 88-145 132’-75’ Qva-A3 Advanced outwash of sand and gravels (Aquifer) 145+ 75’+ Qvaf/Qvlc-B Qvaf-Fine grained/ “Corliss” log Kitsap formation-Clay It was determined after a thorough review of local well logs that the geology will be like that of Well 15 and Corliss well at approximately 220’ AMSL and 250’ AMSL respectively. The Site is at approximately 250’ to 244’ at the surface. It is estimated that the theoretical hydraulic conductivity of the glacial till ranges from 10^-7 (.0000001 ft/Day) to 1 ft/day (Heath 1983) USGS estimates that the hydraulic conductivity median average is 49 ft/day for the A2 aquitard, however this is bias high based on only being 5 wells surveyed throughout the region, so the median average has low reliability of actual hydraulic conductivity. At a neighboring Toxics cleanup site to the northeast, upgradient of the Site, it was observed that an inter- till, undocumented geologically, sandy layer/minor aquifer existed at approximately 200’ AMSL based on the groundwater monitoring elevation contours provided in the attachments. This hydraulic conductivity was measured to be approximately 2.8 ft/Day. The measured gradient by Robinson Noble of this upper sand aquifer is 0.002 ft/ft to the southwest. The extent of groundwater contamination has only reached 450’ from the former Flying J Truckstop source, detectable in MW-3 and MW-7, but not in MW-5 and MW-8 nearest the Site. Inferring that the cleanup site release occurred at some point between 1969 when the structure was built and made it approximately 50’ below the surface to the groundwater stated above, and past reporting indicated during the UST upgrades in 1989, that contamination had made it to the sand aquifer. This is 20 years to travel 50’ vertically (estimating/inferring). Hence the hydraulic conductivity of the soil matrix/till is approximately .007 ft/Day vertically. Since this cleanup site and reviewed wells are adjacent to the Site, it is inferred that the same geology with similar hydraulic conductivity properties exists continuously shown in Figure 3, Geologic Cross Section A- A’ beneath the Site. The depth of the well for Well 15 and Corliss are much lower in elevation and the hydraulic conductivity is much greater than the upper sand aquifer likely to exist beneath the Site. Therefore, they are not hydraulically connected. This upper sand aquifer appears to potentially daylight in the contributing Hylebos river channel separating the eroded Till on S 351st Street. This observation would potentially create another degree of separation from affecting the Lakehaven Well 15 as well as the till above and below this elevation which as an aquitard LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -6- provide considerable protection from potential hazardous materials from entering in the capture zone by Well 15 or other wells screened in the Qva-A3 aquifer. The gradient of the Qva-A3 aquifer in Figure 21 is calculated to be approximately 0.02 ft/ft to the southwest. Hydrogeologic Framework, Groundwater Movement, and Water Budget in the Puyallup River Watershed and Vicinity, Pierce and King Counties, Washington. The capture Zone is shown in Figure 4, 6 Month Fixed Radius Capture Zone (This is estimated since no testing of Well 15 was performed to see actual drawdown and response to pumping). 6.0 GROUNDWATER RECHARGE- Groundwater recharge of primary regional aquifers is produced from infiltrating rainwater recharge from the regional lakes and depressions such as the Hylebos wetland west of the Site and the Lakes to the east on the ridge of the area east of I-5 at a much greater elevation. It is likely that this contributes to the artesian affect common to the area surrounding the Site. The lower Puget Sound is generally covered by till and recharge of the A3 aquifer is recharged through the recharge of A2, then A3. The A3 (Qva) aquifer is continuous throughout the Puget Sound and discharges into the Puget Sound at sea level. 7.0 WELLHEAD PROTECTION AREA- The Site is located within the 6 month and 1 year Time of Travel (TOT), for main Group A, Lakehaven Water and Sewer District, ID: 41997, 144’ deep, Well # 15, wellhead protection area. See Appendix, Supporting Documents. 8.0 CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL - The conceptual Site model shows that the primary confined aquifer below the Site and laterally contiguous throughout the Federal way area is Qva-A3. The Qvt-A2 thickness is from the surface to an average of 88’ deep based estimating Well 15 and Corliss, well logs, well packs, and well screening intervals. Below this at approximately 132’ AMSL, A3 begins, and is approximately 57 feet thick. This corresponding to ranges from 132 ’ AMSL to 75 ’ AMSL at the deepest, where a fine sand or clay is encountered. 9.0 FEDERAL WAY REVISED CODE FWRC 19.145.490 (2)(C) -DEVELOPMENT WITHIN CRITICAL AQUIFER RECHARGE AREAS. 9.1 (I) INFORMATION REGARDING GEOLOGIC AND HYDROGEOLOGIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SITE, INCLUDING THE SURFACE LOCATION OF THE CAPTURE ZONE IN WHICH IT IS LOCATED AND THE TYPE OF INFILTRATION OF THE SITE . LGS has reviewed the available geologic and hydrogeological components pertinent to the Site and its has calculated the transmissivity of Well 15 from the original pump test data and calculated the Fixed Radius of Well 15. This is shown below. LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -7- From this calculation the hydraulic conductivity is estimated over the screened interval of approximately 57’, aquifer thickness b, to be 280 Ft/Day, transmissivity of 14,600 FTSQ/Day. The Site sits within the 6-month and 1-year time of travel wellhead protection zone or capture zone per the DOH SWAP database search. The majority of the Site is within the 1-year time of travel wellhead based on the SWAP DOH well protection maps provided in the attachments. See Robinson Noble models show similar well protection zones throughout the region. LGS calculated the Fixed Radius for 6-months capture zone based on pumping rate, porosity, and screened interval described in the DOH guidance. Based on a fixed radius this site would be in the 6-month capture zone. LGS also modeled the theoretical radius of influence of well 15, with the caveat that the soils remain consistent (isotropic) within Qva-A3, (which is strictly an exercise for estimation control), so this model assumes heterogenous soil matrix conditions to infinite lateral distances (modeled constraints reaching 10,000’ with approximately 0’ of drawdown at the limits modeled), at 100% duty cycle of the well (always running from time 0). This model shows at 6 months the overall drawdown at the Site is approximately 9’, however this an artesian condition well where a pressure drop is a more appropriate reference, approximately 3.9 PSI drop at the Site. The modeled pumping gradient is .0006 ft/ft from the Site to Well 15 at six months, which is 33 times less of a gradient than the regional gradient to the southwest of .02ft/ft. See Figure 5, Modeled Pumping of Well 15.

See Figure 2, Geologic Cross Section A-A’ for profile concept. Confined aquifer Qva-A3 (the aquifer Well #15 is within) is approximately 88’ below the surface from an elevation of 220’ AMSL, at 132’ AMSL, 280 ft/day hydraulic conductivity, USGS hydrogeological reports groundwater flow is to the southwest with a gradient for Qva-A3, calculated to be 0.02 ft/ft. See Figure 2, Geologic Cross Section A-A’ for profile concept. 9.3 (III ) LOCATION OF OTHER CRITICAL AREAS, INCLUDING SURFACE WATERS, WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE SITE. During the site visit, no critical areas exist, or surface waters were observed within 200’. The closest potential receptor is the Hylebos Creek and associated wetland to the west of the Site. Institutional controls on and off-site intercept surface water runoff. Best Management Practices such as engineered containment for potential contaminants would also contribute to reducing the risk of exposure to the Hylebos Wetland/Drainage receptor, albeit Well 15 due to its location. 9.4 (IV) BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT PROPOSED TO BE USED, INCLUDING: (A) PREDICTIVE EVALUATION OF GROUNDWATER WITHDRAWAL EFFECTS ON NEARBY WELLS AND SURFACE WATER FEATURES; After review of the Site redevelopment in respect to this concern, no evaluation was applicable. (B) PREDICTIVE EVALUATION OF CONTAMINANT TRANSPORT BASED ON POTENTIAL RELEASES TO GROUNDWATER; AND It is estimated from hydraulic conductivities calculated in the vertical direction of 0.007 ft/day through glacial till at the Site, with a continuous steady state solution of water and contaminant penetrating the asphalt surface, that it would take approximately 20 years to reach the upper sandy aquifer 50 feet below the surface, which acts like a preferential pathway likely feeding the Hylebos Creek to the west of the site. It would take within this sandy aquifer approximately 1-1.5 years, at 2.8 ft/day, (if at all) to daylight to the Hylebos Creek if the sandy aquifer is laterally contiguous beneath the Site to the Wetland. (It has shown that a 200-gallon LNAPL fuel release in the adjacent Flying J’s property has only moved 450’ within this aquifer over 30 years, after it took 20 years to move vertically, reducing the hydraulic conductivity of .041 ft/d from 2.8 ft/d from a practical measuring sense). This would indicate that it would take 50 years, at .041 ft/d, to reach the wetland. If this hypothetical scenario existed the contaminants would likely dilute in the creek and bypass the potential to infiltrate. If the constituent of concern were to stagnate it would take an additional 26 years to reach the Qva-A3 aquifer by vertical infiltration, if the till matrix is the same hydraulic conductivity. By institutional controls of the storage of chemicals, containment for potential spills, storm drainage systems with oil water separators (all Best Management Practices), and the geological aquitard directly present at the surface beneath the Site, the minor sandy aquifer creating a preferential pathway, the additional till beneath Hylebos creek preventing a direct impact to the aquifer, and the Site being cross LOMBARDINI GEOLOGICAL SERVICES LLC PO BOX 4301 • Spanaway, WA 98387 Phone: 253.334.4782 • Email: shawn@lgs-geo.com -9- gradient from well 15, there is a very low risk, if any, in the opinion of LGS to impact the well 15 in question. (C) PREDICTIVE EVALUATION OF CHANGES IN THE INFILTRATION/RECHARGE RATE. The infiltration and recharge rate change will be de-minimus based on the compacted nature of the geology, current and future asphaltic coverings that exist or will exist at the Site. 9.5 CONCLUSIONS LGS concludes that, using institutional/engineered controls of the storage of chemicals, containment for potential spills, storm drainage systems with oil water separators (all Best Management Practices), impervious asphaltic pavement throughout the Site, lack of a perched layer of groundwater, the low permeability of the glacial till aquitard directly present at the surface beneath the Site, the minor sandy aquifer creating a preferential pathway in the horizontal direction, dilution of contamination within the Hylebos wetland area, the additional till beneath Hylebos creek wetland area, preventing a direct impact to the Qva-A3 aquifer, and the Site being cross gradient from well 15, there is a very low risk, if any, in the opinion of LGS to impact the well 15 in question. 10 .0 SUMMARY- Based on a review of the “Well 15” well log, proximal well logs, regional geological maps, and Hydrogeologic Framework, Groundwater Movement, and Water Budget in the Puyallup River Watershed and Vicinity, Pierce and King Counties, Washington., Federal Way Revised Code, FWRC 19.145.490(2)(c), and general principals of hydrogeologic theory, LGS has determined, in our opinion, - that the proposed Site redevelopment, has a very low risk of contamination infiltration to Qva-A3, which is protective of human health and the environment.

Warning: Soil Map may not be valid at this scale. Enlargement of maps beyond the scale of mapping can cause misunderstanding of the detail of mapping and accuracy of soil line placement. The maps do not show the small areas of contrasting soils that could have been shown at a more detailed scale. Please rely on the bar scale on each map sheet for map measurements. Source of Map: Natural Resources Conservation Service Web Soil Survey URL: Coordinate System: Web Mercator (EPSG:3857) Maps from the Web Soil Survey are based on the Web Mercator projection, which preserves direction and shape but distorts distance and area. A projection that preserves area, such as the Albers equal-area conic projection, should be used if more accurate calculations of distance or area are required. This product is generated from the USDA-NRCS certified data as of the version date(s) listed below. Soil Survey Area: King County Area, Washington Survey Area Data: Version 17, Aug 23, 2021 Soil map units are labeled (as space allows) for map scales 1:50,000 or larger. Date(s) aerial images were photographed: Jul 6, 2020—Jul 20, 2020 The orthophoto or other base map on which the soil lines were compiled and digitized probably differs from the background imagery displayed on these maps. As a result, some minor shifting of map unit boundaries may be evident.

Methods of Investigation 5 investigations by Brown and Caldwell (1985), Dragovich and others (1994), Woodward and others (1995), and Robinson & Noble, Inc., and others (2003). The surficial hydrogeologic map for the study area (pl. 2; scale 1:85,000) was produced by merging 1:100,000 scale surficial geologic maps (Schasse, 1987; Walsh, 1987; Tabor and others, 2000) with multiple 1:24,000 surficial geologic maps (Booth and others, 2004; Booth and Waldron, 2004;K.G. Troost, U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 2008). More than 80 geologic units delineated on these source maps were grouped into 13 hydrogeologic units based on similarities in lithology (grain size and sorting), hydrologic characteristics, and relative stratigraphic position (table 1). Table 1. Hydrogeologic units defined in this study and correlation with geologic and hydrostratigraphic units from previous investigations.PeriodEpochHydrogeologic units defined in this study Geologic units (from K.G.

Median values of hydraulic conductivity for the aquifers (AL1, 350 ft/d; AL2, 297 ft/d; A1, 236 ft/d; A3, 176 ft/d; C, 118 ft/d; E, 51 ft/d; and G, 34 ft/d) are similar in magnitude to values compiled by Vaccaro and others (1998) and Savoca and others (2010) for the Puget Sound lowlands and within the range of typical hydraulic conductivity values reported by Freeze and Cherry (1979) for similar materials. Median values of estimated hydraulic conductivities for the confining units (MFL, 2,255 ft/d; A2, 49 ft/d; B, 419 ft/d; D, 57 ft/d; and F, 9 ft/d) and the bedrock unit (3 ft/d ) are higher than is typical for most of the material in these units because data for confining units are usually from wells that are preferentially open to lenses of coarse water-bearing material, or in the case of bedrock, where water-bearing fractures are present. As a result, the data are biased toward the more productive zones in these units and are not representative of the entire unit. Estimates of horizontal hydraulic conductivity also were compiled from aquifer tests conducted by environmental consulting firms, and statistical summaries of these data were prepared by hydrogeologic unit (table 3). Aquifer tests data were only available for public-supply wells and are biased toward the major water-producing aquifers in the study area. Aquifer tests data were not available for the A1 aquifer, the MFL, A2, D, and F confining units, or bedrock unit. Median values of horizontal hydraulic conductivity for aquifer units A3, C, E, and G are within an order of magnitude of estimates for these units derived from specific capacity data (table 3) and values reported by Savoca and others (2010). Median values of horizontal hydraulic conductivity for aquifer units AL1 and AL2 (7,221 and 2,010 ft/d, respectively) are significantly higher (greater than an order of magnitude) than estimates for these units derived from specific capacity data (table 3) and values reported for the AL unit by Savoca and others (2010). However, median values for the AL1 and AL2 units are within an order of magnitude of the maximum values derived from specific capacity data (table 3) and the maximum value for the AL unit by Savoca and others (2010). Possible factors that may contribute to observed differences in conductivity derived from specific capacity data and aquifer tests may include differences in sample size (fewer wells with available aquifer tests) and the increased probability of encountering highly conductive zones during aquifer testing, as larger contributing volumes of aquifer material are captured as a result of higher pumping rates and longer pumping times.
