RE: File #07-101137-00-SE; MIDWAY SAMOAN ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH (2007)

Dear Mr. Nishimura:
This office and other City staff have reviewed the environmental checklist you submitted. We have determined that
the proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. As a result, an environmental
impact statement (EIS) is not required to comply with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA).
A 14-day comment period is required by the SEPA rules (WAC 197-11-340). A notice inviting comments was
published in the Federal Way MiMor on September 16, 2009. At the end of the comment period, the department
will determine if the DNS should be withdrawn, modified, or issued as proposed. All final determinations maybe
appealed within 14 days following the comment deadline. No licenses, permits, or approvals will be issued until
completion of the appeal period.
Our decision not to require an EIS does not mean that the license, permit, or approval you are seeking from the City
has been granted. Approval or denial of the proposal will be made by the appropriate administrative or legislative
body vested with that authority. The environmental record is considered by the decision maker(s) and conditions
will be imposed to reduce identified environmental impacts, as long as the conditions are based on adopted and
designated City policy.
After a final decision has been made on your proposal (i.e., after approval has been issued or City Council action
taken, as applicable), you may, but are not required to, publish a Notice of Action as set forth in RCW 43.21C.075.
The Notice of Action sets forth a time period after which no legal challenges regarding the proposal's compliance
with SEPA can be made. A copy of the Notice of Action form and copies of RCW 43.21 C.080 and WAC 197-11-
680 providing instructions for giving this notice are available from the Department of Community Development
Services.
The City is not responsible for publishing the Notice of Action. However, the City is responsible for giving a notice
(to parties of record) stating the date for commencing a judicial appeal (including the SEPA portion of that appeal) if
your proposal is one for which the City's action on it has a specified time period within which any court appeals
must be made.
If you need further assistance, feel free to call David Lee, Associate Planner, at 253-835-2622.
Sincerely,

RE: File #07-101136-00-UP; MIDWAY SAMOAN ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH (2007)
29276 Military Road South, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Nishimura:
On May 13, 2009, the City received resubmitted plans regarding the proposed new church and associated site
improvements. The following technical comments must be addressed prior to any further action on this
application.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUESTED
Planning, David Lee (253-835-2622, david.lee(gcityoffederalway.com)
L Item #1 on the response/resubmittal letter (submitted on May 13, 2009) indicates that building
elevations have been included in the resubmittal letter. Building elevations were not submitted with this
resubmittal. The Resubmittal Information coversheet submitted indicates "5 Mitigation Plans showing
requested buffer setback" and "3 Amended Technical Information Reports (11R)" were submitted at
that time. Please resubmit building elevations.
2. There is no record of payment of the $2,108 for the initial peer review (completed by ESA Adolfson) of
the wetland study done by Genesis Resource Consulting to the city by either agent or owner of this
project. If the applicant believes this amount has been paid, please submit a copy of the receipt issued
by the. City of Federal Way. The receipt should indicate an "Environmental Pass Through" payment
(receipt item #8045). Otherwise, the outstanding balance of $2,109 owed to the city for the initial peer
review is still due. Another copy of the invoice has been enclosed with this letter. Additionally, I have
included a copy of an invoice chronicling all payments made to the city by either Nishimura &
Associates or Midway Samoan Assembly of God.
3. Please submit an updated and amended wetland report by Genesis Resource Consulting regarding the
proposed wetland buffer intrusion and enhancement. Additionally, the report should address any
impacts of surface water being drained into the stream, stream buffer, and wetland buffer. Any changes
made to the site plan should be documented in the wetland report.
4. Upon further review, it has been indicated by Lakehaven Utility District that it is possible to connect the
sewer line to the line located along the western margin of Military Road South. The connection at this
location would avoid further impacts to the wetland and wetland/streambuffer. Please contact Brian
Asbury at Lakehaven Utility at 253-941-1516 for installation/connection information. Per Federal Way
City Code (FWCC) Section 22-1358(d), the specific location and extent of the intrusion must constitute
the minimum necessary encroachment. Since there is an available alternative location for sewer service
that does not intrude into the wetland, stream, and their associated buffers, the connection at that
location must be utilized.
- Mr.Nishimura
aJune 9; 2009
Page 2
5. The proposed installation of the deep rock outfall pad and a small portion of the storm drain piping
appears to be offsite. Additionally, the storm drain piping/deep rock outfall pad appears to be within the
stream Based upon the TIR, it does not appear that this is the sole option for drainage. Please amend
the site plan to remove the storm drain piping and deep rock outfall pad from the stream
6. Please update your SEPA checklist in regards to the project scope, the wetland categorization, intrusion
into the wetland buffer, intrusion into the stream buffer, and mitigation measures.
7. As a reminder, per the review letter sent on May 11, 2007, written by Andy Bergsagel, a BLA for the
elimination of the interior lot line must be completed and recorded prior to the issuance of a Certificate
of Occupancy of the building.
Lakehaven Utility District, Brian Asbury (253-941-1516, basbury@lakehaven.org)
L The property is not currently connected to sanitary sewer, according to Lakehaven records. Existing
onsite sewerage system is presumed.
2. There is an existing 15" diameter sanitary sewer trunk that runs along the property's easterly boundary
that was constructed in the mid-1960s. There IS NOT an existing sewer service stub for the subject
property on the existing trunk. Depth of trunk on property is approximately 8 feet. Lakehaven would
allow connection to this trunk to serve the property. See enclosed map for additional info/detail.
3. There is an existing 8" diameter sanitary sewer main that runs in/along the westerly side of Military
Road South in front of the property. Depth of main in ROW is approximately 9-10 feet. There IS NOT
an existing sewer service stub for the subject property on the existing main. Lakehaven would allow
connection to this main to serve the property. See enclosed map for additional info/detail.
4. Presuming Lakehaven's information is correct and the existing 8" sewer main is under asphalt pavement
in Military Road South as indicated on the enclosed map; to avoid asphalt pavement cut/excavation
connection could be made directly into the manhole that fronts the subject property via directional-
drill/bore type construction. Owner/applicant may want to consider use of a private grinder pump
station and a low-pressure sewer service line, to reduce ROW construction and/or restoration costs. See
enclosed map for additional info/detail.
Development Services, Ann Dower (253-835-2732, ann.dower@cityoffederalway.com)
The engineering review letter will follow this review letter shortly.
Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-34, if an applicant fails to provide additional information to the City within
180 days of being notified that such information is requested, the application shall be deemed null and void
and the City shall have no duty to process, review, or issue any decisions with respect to such an application.
If you should have any questions regarding this letter or your development project, please feel free to contact
me at david.lee@cityoffederalway.com or at 253-835-2622.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), RCW Chapter 43.21C, requires all governmental agencies
to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An environmental impact
statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the
quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the
agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can
be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal.
Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most
precise information known, or give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases,
you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the
need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your
proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply." Complete answers to the questions now may avoid
unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark
designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can
assist you.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of
time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your
proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to
explain your answers or provide additional _information reasonably related to determining if there may
be significant adverse impact.
USE OF CHECKLIST FOR NON -PROJECT PROPOSALS
Complete this checklist for non -project proposals, even though questions may be answered "does not
apply." In addition, complete the Supplemental Sheet for Non -Project Actions (part D).
For non -project actions, the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property
or site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
PURPOSE OF CHECKLIST
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), RCW Chapter 43.21C, requires all governmental agencies
to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An environmental impact
statement (EIS) must be prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the
quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide information to help you and the
agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can
be done) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICANTS
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal.
Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most
precise information known, or give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases,
you should be able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the
need to hire experts. If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your
proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply." Complete answers to the questions now may avoid
unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark
designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can
assist you.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of
time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your
proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to
explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may
be significant adverse impact.
