Under Process III land use review, the Director of Community Development Services renders a written decision after considering all of the information and comments submitted on the matter, and based upon the decisional criteria in Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-395. The criteria include the following: It is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan; It is consistent with all applicable provisions of the zoning code; It is consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare; The streets and utilities in the area of the subject property are adequate to serve the anticipated demand from the proposal; and, The proposed access to the subject property is at the optimal location and configuration. F+'INDINGS The following are findings for recommending approval of the proposed neighborhood park and BPA Trail Phase IV. The proposal is consistent with the 2002 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan (FWCP) Map III-19 for a Class 1 separated trail and Goal TG4, "Enhance community livability and transportation by providing a connected system of pedestrian and bicycle ways that is also integrated into a coordinated regional network." It is also consistent with policy TP54, "Work to extend the existing system of sidewalks, bikeways, and equestrian ways in the City to provide safe access to public transit, neighborhood and business centers, parks, schools, public facilities, and other recreational attractions." The FWCP designation for the subject trail site is High Density Single Family. 2. Public parks and recreational trails are permitted uses in RS zoning districts pursuant to Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-646, subject to the Process III project approval. The proposed 5,325 square foot children's playground and .27 mile recreational trail (12 feet in width) is consistent with all provisions of the zoning code. 3. Thy Armstrong site, an approximately 20-acre parcel, is composed of two tax lots. The zoning for)44e subject property is Residential Single Family, RS7.2, on the northern lot and RS9.6 on the southern lot. The site is bounded by SW 3561h Street to the north, and 15th Avenue SW and single-family residential development to the east. To the west of the site is a Class I wetland. The site extends south across the King/Pierce County boundary and extends out of Federal Way into Pierce County. About five acres of the site, located in Pierce County, will not be developed as part of this proposal. 4. The proposed Armstrong Park site is located in Park Planning Area D. There are no parks or recreational facilities available within this planning area. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan 2000 states that neighborhood parks should serve a one-half mile radius. The closest park is West Hylebos Wetlands Park, which is more than a mile away, and it does not contain neighborhood park type facilities. The Park Plan identifies a need for an additional 11 neighborhood parks in the City. The project will create new recreation opportunities available to the community. Playground equipment, and the open, grassy meadow will offer opportunities for informal play. 5. The proposed site plan application and application attachments have been determined to be consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare for a recreational trail. City codes contain adequate standards and requirements to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. 6. The streets and utilities in the area of the proposed trail are adequate to serve the anticipated demand from the proposal and the proposed access to the subject property is at the optimal locations. The applicant will construct three on -street parking stalls at the southern end of 15th Avenue SW, adjacent to the playground area. 7. The access to the subject neighborhood park and BPA Trail IV proposal is at the optimal location(s) and configuration. The proposed trail connects to an existing trail located on the north of SW 3561h Street. The proposed children's play area is accessed from 151h Avenue SW. The applicant shall install approximately 100 feet of frontage that includes widening of that portion of 151h Avenue SW by approximately 12 feet, to include the proposed three parking stalls. In addition, a raised refuge island crosswalk shall be installed at the intersection of 15th Avenue SW and SW 356th Street. 8. Per FWCC, Article XIX, Community Design Guidelines, non-structural projects within residential zones are exempt from compliance with Community Design Guidelines. State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review was required because the subject property contains a Class I wetland and buffer area. A Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) was issued by the Responsible City Official for this project on July 13, 2004 (File No: 04-102115- SE). 10. This project is the fourth phase to a four -phase recreational trail system along the BPA corridor serving the City of Federal Way from 11 `h Place North to the Pierce County line. The City trail - system is part of a planned King -Pierce County Covington to Tacoma trail system. The proposed site plan and application attachments have been reviewed for compliance with the FWCP, FWCC, and all other applicable City regulations and configuration for access. The proposed development is consistent with Process III Project Approval decisional criteria required under FWCC Section 22-395. Findings And Conclusions 04-102114 / nog t.n. 28179 Armstrong Neighborhood Park and BPA Trail Page 2 Final construction drawings will be reviewed for compliance with specific regulations, conditions, or approval and other applicable City requirements.

LD. 27761 Page 1 :Applicant: IBetty Sanders, ASLA, Park Planning and Development Coordinator City of Federal Way, Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 Location: The Armstrong site, an approximately 20-acre parcel, is located within a portion of the BPA overhead transmission line right-of-way in the City of Federal Way, WA (Section 30, Township 21N, and Range 4E). The property is composed of two tax lots; 218000-1290 and 302104-9163). The site is bounded by SW 3561h Street to the north, and 15`h Avenue SW to the east. The site extends south across the King/Pierce County boundary and extends out of Federal Way into Pierce County. About five acres of the site, located in Pierce County, will not be developed as part of this proposal. Zoning: Tax Lot 302104-9163: RS7.2 — Single Family Residential Tax Lot 218000-1290: RS9.6 — Single Family Residential Comprehensive Plan Designation: Parks and Open Space ANALYSIS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Following are staff responses to the elements of the enclosed environmental checklist indicating whether or not City staff concurs with the applicant's response to the checklist item, or staff clarification or amendment of the response. A. BACKGROUND 1-9. Concur with the checklist. 10. Process III Approval to allow pedestrian access through a regulated wetland in conjunction with a public park, and to locate minor improvements such as walkways, within the buffer of a regulated wetland (File No: 04-102114-00-UP); Right-of-way Permit; Engineering Approval for proposed street improvements and pedestrian path. 11. Concur with the checklist. 12. Concur with the checklist. The City of Federal Way owns or controls all impacted areas. B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS 1. Earth a-b. Concur with the checklist. C. Concur with the checklist. Based on the King County Soil Survey (1973), three soil types are mapped on the property. Seattle muck is located in the west portion of the site. The Seattle series is made up of very poorly drained organic soils that formed in material derived primarily from sedges. Everett gravelly sandy loam, 5 to 15 percent slopes is mapped on the majority of the northern portion of the site. The Everett series is made up of somewhat excessively drained soils that are underlain by very gravelly sand at a depth Armstrong Neighborhood Park 04-102115-SE / Doc. rD. 27761 Staff Evaluation Page 2 of 18 to 36 inches. Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, zero to six percent slopes is mapped in the south portion of the site. d-e. Concur with the checklist. f-h. Concur with the checklist. Soil disturbing activities could result in erosion and transport of sediment. Sand, silt, and soil damage aquatic habitat and are considered pollutants. To mitigate potential erosion impacts, the applicant will implement a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control (TESL) Plan utilizing Best Management Practices (BMP) before any soil disturbing activities. Implementation and monitoring of the TESC Plan will prevent and/or minimize erosion impacts during the construction phase of the project. Upon completion of construction, the areas of soil disturbance will be re -vegetated. New impervious surface on the site will consist of the paved trail, the sidewalk around the playground, and the widening of the street for three parking spaces. Approximately 21,398 square feet of new impervious surface is proposed. Stormwater infiltration will be provided adjacent to new impervious surface. 2. Air a. Concur with the checklist. Short-term air quality impacts will result during site preparation and construction. Construction activity contributes to carbon monoxide and particulate matter levels through the operation of construction machinery, delivery equipment and materials, and worker access to the site by automobile. These activities include emissions of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen, potentially elevating the level of photochemical oxidants, such as ozone, in the ambient air. Long-term impacts will not be increased by completion of this proposal. b-c. Concur with the checklist. The applicant could reduce air impacts by watering exposed soil, covering all transport trucks, cleaning roads, managing construction traffic, and requiring emission control devices on construction equipment. Compliance with local, state, and federal air quality standards provides sufficient mitigation of potential short- term air quality impacts. 3. Water a. Surface 1) Concur with the checklist. There is a Class I wetland along the western portion of the site. The on -site portion of this is a 3.5 acre depressional, paulustrine emergent and scrub/shrub headwater wetland. 2) Concur with the checklist. The project includes construction of a 12-foot wide paved pedestrian trail in the wetland buffer of a Class I wetland, and construction of a small footbridge that will traverse a part of the wetland itself. 3) No fill or dredge material will be placed in or removed from the Class I Wetland because of the proposed project. 4-6) Concur with the checklist. FEMA maps indicate that the project site is not located within a 100- or 500-year flood plain. Armstrong Neighborhood Park Staff Evaluation 04-102115-SE / Doe, I.D. 277e1 Page 3 b. Ground 1-2) Concur with the checklist. Water Runoff (including stormwater) 1) Concur with the checklist. New trail paving will be crowned to sheet flow into the adjacent, restored grass meadow areas, and into sub -drainage filter strips and dispersal trenches along side the trial. The project is designed in conformance with the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual, as described in the abbreviated T.I.T. report developed by E3RA, Inc., May 10, 2004. 2) Concur with the checklist. d. Concur with the checklist. During the construction of the facilities proposed for this project, diversion of runoff water will be provided where appropriate. The erosion control plan developed for this project will address runoff control as well. 4. Plants a-d. Concur with the checklist. The applicant has submitted a landscape plan, prepared by a landscape architect registered in the State of Washington, that satisfies code requirements for use of native and drought tolerant plantings. 5. Animals a-d. Concur with the checklist. No significant adverse wildlife impacts are anticipated, and no mitigation measures are necessary. 6. Energy and Natural Resources a-c. Concur with the checklist. The applicant has proposed to reduce energy impacts by limiting construction equipment idling, encouraging carpooling by construction workers, locating staging areas in close proximity to the site, and phasing construction and controlling traffic to limit idling vehicles. No significant adverse energy and natural resource impacts are anticipated; therefore, no additional mitigation measures are necessary. 7. Environmental Health a. Environmental Health Hazards 1-2) Concur with the checklist. The risk of environmental health hazards is always present during construction projects. The use of standard construction practices and traffic control measures would greatly reduce the risk of an accident. Fire personnel have reviewed the site plan for adequacy of emergency access and layout. All applicable state laws concerning workplace safety should be followed on the proposed project site during construction. Noise 1) Concur with the checklist. 2-3) Concur with the checklist. Noise levels will increase on a short-term basis during construction activity. No increase in noise levels will be generated because of the completed project. Control measures include use of muffled equipment, acoustic shielding, and required conformance with local noise ordinances regulating hours of construction and noise levels. The final project would generate no noise impacts. Armstrong Neighborhood Park 04-102115-SE / D.C. I.D. 27761 Staff Evaluation Page 4 8. Land and Shoreline Use a. Concur with the checklist.

Concur with the checklist. Concur with the checklist. A six-foot high cedar fence and Type III landscaping will be installed along the property line adjacent to the single-family residence to the south of the proposed play area. Development of the park will also discourage use of the site by off- - road vehicles, which is currently a problem that is disturbing neighbors. 9. Housing a-c. Concur with the checklist. No significant adverse housing impacts are anticipated; therefore, no mitigation measures are necessary. 10. Aesthetics a-c. Concur with the checklist. No buildings will be constructed on the site. The height of the metal play structure will be a maximum of 11 feet. 11. Light and Glare a-c. Concur with the checklist. The proposal will not produce light or glare; therefore, no mitigation measures are proposed. 12. Recreation a-c. Concur with the checklist. The proposed Armstrong Park site is located in Park Planning Area D. There are no parks or recreational facilities available within this planning area. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan 2000 states that neighborhood parks should serve a one-half mile radius. The closest park is West Hylebos Wetlands Park, which is more than a mile away, and it does not contain neighborhood park type facilities. The Park Plan identifies a need for an additional 11 neighborhood Armstrong Neighborhood Park 04-102115-SE / nog. in. 27761 Staff Evaluation Page 5 parks in the City. The project will create new recreation opportunities available to the community. Playground equipment, and the open, grassy meadow will offer opportunities for informal play. 13. Historic and Cultural Preservation a-c. Concur with the checklist. No significant adverse historic and cultural preservation impacts are anticipated; therefore, no mitigation measures are necessary. 14. Transportation a. Concur with the checklist.

Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location of your proposed project, including a street address if any, and section, township, and range if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist. The 20 acre property is located directly south of SW 356 h Street, and west of 15"i Avenue SW. No address has been assigned to the property yet. Work for this project will be performed primarily on the northernmost parcel. Parcel Numbers: 2180001290, 3021049163 It is in the NW and SW quadrants of 30-21-04 The following maps and information are provided as part of the application package: Deed and Title Vicinity Map Aerial Photo Parcel Map Site Plan, with topographic information (as part of the drawing set) B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS 1. EARTH a. General description of the site (circle one): la , rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? A small 6' high bank sloped at 2:1 (50% slope) exists at the street edge on SW 356"i Street. The remainder of the site is very gently sloped at 0 to 6%. c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, mulch)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any prime farmland. Sandy loam and gravels, and glacial till. Within the wetland area hydric soils were identified that consisted of sandy silt loam and gravelly sandy loam. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 3 of 14 k:\Handouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. No. e. Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. Grading would include cutting approximately 280 cubic yards and balancing onsite. An additional 360 cubic yards of soil may be imported from the Thompson Park site, if construction of the two parks occurs during the same year. This material will be used for minor grading of the trail. The trail and play area will be graded to meet the ADA accessibility standard of less than 5% slopes. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. Some erosion is possible as a result of grading activities, until new grass cover is established, but erosion control procedures will be in place prior to grading. The eastern portion of the site where most construction work will take place is fairly flat, reducing the extent of erosion that is likely. g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? Impervious surfaces on the site will consist of the paved trail, the sidewalk around the playground, and the widening of the street for three parking spaces. Approximately 21,396 square feet of new impervious surface is proposed. This is about 4.0% of the 12.4 acre portion of the property that will be used in this development proposal. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any. The primary approaches that will be used to minimize the chances for erosioninclude: construction during the driest months of summer and fall, maintenance of native vegetation, and prompt reseeding and revegetation. A number of mechanical techniques will be used to minimize erosion, including: • Temporary erosion control fencing will be placed on the wetland side of the trail to keep sediment from being conveyed into the wetland. ■ The boundaries of the clearing limits will be clearly flagged in the field prior to construction and no disturbance beyond the flagging shall be allowed. • During construction the temporary erosion and sediment control (TESL) measures shall be upgraded as needed for unexpected storm events. TESC measures shall be inspected daily and maintained to ensure their continued functioning. • Any area stripped of vegetation where work is not anticipated for more than 15 days will be immediately stabilized with approved TESC measures, such as seeding, mulching or erosion blankets. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 4 of 14 k:\Handouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist 1 ■ Stormwater infiltration will be provided adjacent to new impervious surfaces. 2. Ant a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile, odors, industrial wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. Exhaust from construction equipment will be present during the construction period. After construction there may be a minor increase of automobile exhaust produced by the cars parking adjacent to the site. b. Are there any off -site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. None known. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any. None. WATER a. Surface 1) Is there any surface water body on or in the immediate vicinity of the site (including year-round and seasonal streams, saltwater, lakes, ponds, and wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. Yes. A wetland (Class 1) occupies a portion of the western half of the Armstrong site. The on -site portion of this is a 3.5 acre (153,888sf) depressional, palustrine emergent and scrub/shrub headwater wetland. This wetland continues off -site to the west. A detailed description for the Wetland can be found in the report titled Armstrong Site Wetlands Study prepared by Adolfson Associates, Inc., dated 5-28-2003. 2) Will the project require any work over, in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the described waters? If yes, please describe and attach available plans. Yes, pathways, a permitted use, are proposed within the 200' wetland buffer. Disturbed areas will be revegetated with seeding and native plants. The trail ranges from about 70 to 180 feet east of the edge of the delineated wetland. At one point the trail crosses a narrow strip of wetland that extends toward the east. In this area the wetland will be crossed with a small footbridge to eliminate impacts. A small triangular area east of the wetland buffer, close to SW 360`b Street, is the spot where a children's play area will be constructed. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 5 of 14 Uflandouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist 3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that would be placed in or removed from surface water or wetlands and indicate the area of the site that would be affected. Indicate the source of fill material. None. 4) Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversions? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities if known. No. 5) Does the proposal He within a 100-year floodplain? If so, note location on the site plan. No. 6) Does the proposal involve any discharges of waste materials to surface waters?

If so, describe. No. 1) Describe special emergency services that might be required. Not applicable. 2) Proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards, if any. Project will be monitored during construction by the project landscape architect and City representatives. b. Noise 1) What types of noise exist in the area that may affect your project (for example: traffic, equipment operation, other)? Steady auto traffic exists along SW 356"' Street, although this is not expected to have much noise impact on the project, due to the length of the property, and the placement of the major play area several hundred feet from the street. Normal residential noise can be expected from the adjoining properties. 2) What types and levels of noise would be created by or associated with the project on a short-term or long-term basis (for example: traffic, construction operation, other)? Indicate what hours. noise would come from the site. Short-term noise can be expected during construction. This will consist primarily of construction machinery, which will only be operated during hours allowed by Federal Way City Code. Long term noise would include voices of park users during hours that parks are open, which is dawn to dusk. Bulletin #050 —March 18, 2003 Page 9 of 14 k:\Bandouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist 3) Proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any. Park closed at dusk. 8. LAND AND SHORELINE USE a. What is the current use of the site and adjacent properties? The 20 acre site is largely undeveloped. It contains utility easements which include the BPA power line and the Tacoma Water pipeline. Neighboring properties consist primarily of single family houses. There is undeveloped land to the west of the site. b. Has the site been used for agriculture? If so, describe. Z c. Describe any structures on the site. BPA transmission towers. d. Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? No. e. What is the current zoning classification of the site? RS 7.2 RS 9.6 f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site?

Bulletin #050 —March 18, 2003 Page 12 of 14 k:\Handouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist 12. RECREATION a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? The Armstrong park site is located in Park Planning Area D. There are no parks or recreational facilities available within this planning area. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan 2000 states that neighborhood parks should serve a one-half mile radius. The closest park is West Hylebos Wetlands Park, which is more than a mile away, and it does not contain neighborhood park type facilities. The Park Plan identifies a need for an additional 11 neighborhood parks in the City. b. Would the proposed displace any existing recreational uses? If so, describe. Illegal off -road vehicle use would be discontinued. The site is also used for walking, and this use would be strengthened. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts on recreation, including recreation opportunities to be provided by the project or applicant, if any. The project will make new recreation opportunities available to the community. These will include passive activities such as walking and bicycling. Playground equipment, and the open, grassy meadow will offer opportunities for informal play. 13. HISTORIC AND. CULTURAL PRESERVATION a. Are there any places or objects listed on, or proposed for, nation, state, or local preservation registers known to be on or next to the site? If so, generally describe. I,] b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the site. None known. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control impacts, if any. None. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 13 of 14 k:\Handouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist 14. TRANSPORTATION a. Identify public streets and highways serving the site, and describe proposed access to the existing street system. Show on site plans, if any. SW 356" Street runs along the north edge of the property, and 156' Avenue SW is along the east edge. Access by foot or bike may occur along 15°i Avenue SW, next to the playground, or from SW 356'', along the trail, Vehicle parking is proposed along 150' Avenue SW; there is no vehicle access to the interior of the site, with the exception of maintenance vehicles. b. Is the site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? METRO Route 182 to Northeast Tacoma stops 2 blocks away at SW 356 b and 13"' Way SW. c. How many parking spaces would the completed project have? How many would the project eliminate? The project adds 3 parking spaces along 15'b Avenue SW, primarily to serve the play area. These are situated just north of SW 360"' Street. d. Will the proposal require any new roads or streets, or improvements to existing roads or streets, not including driveways? If so, generally describe (indicate whether public or private). Yes, a pedestrian safety refuge island will be added to SW 356t' Street. 15'h Avenue SW will be widened for a length of almost 100 feet to provide three parking spaces. Curb, gutter, and sidewalk will be placed adjacent to the parking spaces. e. Will the project use (or occur in the immediate vicinity of) water, rail, or air transportation? If so, generally describe. No. f. How many vehicular trips per day would be generated by the completed project? If known, indicate when peak volumes would occur. The project will support non -motorized trail users such as pedestrians and bicyclists. In addition, approximately 3 vehicle trips per day, year round are also expected. Higher volumes can be expected during summers, holidays, Saturday s and Sundays. Peak volumes of 8 vehicle trips per day are estimated for Saturdays and Sundays. g. Proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 14 of 14 k:U3andouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist Neighborhood parks are intended to serve residents and users within %Z mile of the site, as defined by the City of Federal Way Parks Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan. The park's placement within a residential setting makes it easy to walk or bike to for many residents. The continuation of the BPA trail through part of the park emphasizes the role of bicycling and walking, and is intended to reduce reliance on the automobile. 15. PUBLIC SERVICES a. Would the project result in an increased need for public services (for example: fire protection, police protection; health care, schools, other)? If so, generally describe. Irrigation is not being installed at this location, therefore hand watering or watering by truck will be necessary for the first two years, until plants are established. Regular park maintenance services would be required for the life of the park, including litter and garbage removal, mowing, playground inspection, and other grounds maintenance. Additional police patrolling of the area may be needed at times. b. Proposed measures to reduce or control direct impacts on public services, if any. Native and drought -tolerant plants are being used to minimize watering and the amount of landscape maintenance that will be required. CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) design techniques are being used. On the Armstrong site this consists primarily of reducing the grade next to SW 3560' Street, and using plants that will allow visibility into the center of the site. Increased visibility into the park will reduce the chances of inappropriate activities within the park, and thus create less demand on the police. 16. UTILITIES a. Circle utilities currently available at the site: lectrici atLual a , ate , refuse servic el hon , sanitary sewer, septic system, other. b. Describe the utilities that are proposed for the project, the utility providing the service, and the general construction activities on the site or in the immediate vicinity that might be needed. None. Bulletin #050 — March 18, 2003 Page 15 of 14 k:\Bandouts — Revised\Environmental Checklist C. SIGNATURE The above answers are true and complete to the best of my knowledge.

Parks, Recreation & Cultural Services Department 33530 1st Way South PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 To: Cary Roe, Public Works Director From: B Sanders, Park Planning & Development Coordinator Date: May 24, 2004 Topic: Armstrong Park Property Right -of -Way Improvement Modification Request The following information was provided in the Preapplication Letter from Jane Gamble, dated March 11, 2004. The comments are from Raid Tirhi: 151h Avenue SW is a Type W street, consisting of a 28 foot street with curb, gutter, four foot planter strip with trees, five-foot sidewalk, and street lights in a 52 foot right-of-way. SW 356`h Street is a Type C street, consisting of a 72' street with curb, gutter, 6' planter strip with trees, 8' sidewalk, and streetlights in a 106' right-of-way. Staff would support a modification request to provide an additional eight foot wide paved street for parking with curb and gutter, and a five foot sidewalk for a portion of the road that accommodates the required number ofparking stalls. At a minimum, street illumination at the intersection with SW 360`h Street shall be provided. Note: SW 356th Street is already constructed to full development standards, including sidewalk and street trees. Two existing street trees are dead, and the project proposes to replace these. Modification Requests for 15th Avenue SW: The following items are proposed to be designed and constructed to conditions other than the standard for this street type. 1. ength of Right -of -Way Improvements: The length of area to receive street paving, curb and gutter, and sidewalk improvements is proposed to be approximately 100 feet long. Explanation: Most of 15`h Avenue SW is located within the wetland buffer. A widened street of 100 feet in length, 8 feet wide will allow parking of three cars. This amount of parking is adequate to serve the park, and is located near the playground, outside the wetland buffer. Reason: Unusual topographic or physical conditions preclude the construction of improvements as required. (92 Planter Strip with. Trees: The Type W street section calls for a four -foot wide planter strip between the curb and sidewalk. We are proposing to place the sidewalk directly adjacent to the parking, and to substitute the existing vegetation for the planter strip. Explanation: The edge of the site adjacent to the street is vegetated with native and non- native volunteer plants in this area. We are proposing to maintain the desirable vegetation that is in good condition. This would help to maintain the natural appearance of the park and would be more appropriate than a traditional street tree planting. The site will retain 16 significant trees along the street frontage, and many more smaller trees within the body of the site. This project will plant an additional 9 trees. Reason: The improvement as required would not be harmonious with existing street improvements, would not function properly or safely or would not be advantageous to the neighborhood or City as a whole.

Worthy, ASLA Worthy & Associates, LLC 1932 First Avenue, Suite 606 Seattle, WA 98101 Re: Engineering Recommendations BPA Trail Phase IV and Park Federal Way, Washington Dear Mr. Worthy: MAY 2 7 2004 Ip OF FEDERAL_ WAY jam'C:E VJ.VILOING DEPT- MAY 12 2004 IrVorihy & ASS068M, L:C At your request, E3RA has completed engineering investigations and analyses in order to make recommendations concerning foundations on the referenced project. Our scope of services included the following tasks: • reviewing preliminary plans for the project vicinity prepared by Worthy & Associates and dated February 26, 2004, • excavating test borings at representative locations across the site, ■ developing a pavement cross section for the pathways to be constructed on the project, ■ evaluating stormwater flows from the pathways, • consulting with your staff and others in preparation of SEPA and other permit documents, and ■ preparation of this letter report summarizing our findings. Planned Construction Based on the preliminary plans, development at the site will involve construction of a linear park and pathway system along the BPA right-of-way in Federal Way, Washington. The pathways will be approximately 2000 feet in length with a paved width of 12 feet. Portions will be installed in a wetland buffer area as a permitted use of the buffer. Impervious surfaces associated with the construction will comprise approximately 4.6% of the site. Significant numbers of new coniferous and deciduous trees will also be planted. Field Exploration ORA explored subsurface conditions at the site by excavating four test pits at selected locations across the planned facility. Test pits were extended to a depth between 3.5 and 6 feet below existing grade using a track -mounted excavator. Generally, the test pits encountered silty, gravelly Sand from the surface to the maximum depth explored. The material was present as fill on the surface of several of the test borings; the fill placement was likely the result of grading associated with recent construction of a water pipeline in the alignment. The same material was encountered as a native soil that was a Page 2 May 12, 2004 weathered till near the surface and a dense glacial till at depth. Individual test pit logs are attached to this report. Pathway Pavement Section Current plans call for primarily pedestrian use of the pathways with only occasional maintenance (pickup) truck use of the pavements. Based on the anticipated light loading of the pavement and the relatively stiff nature of the subgrade soils, we recommend use of a minimum pavement section. The recommended pavement section should consist of the following elements: ■ 3 inches of scarified and recompacted subgrade soils, • 6 inches of Crushed Surfacing Top Course per WSDOT 9-03.9(3), and ■ 2 inches of Asphaltic Concrete Pavement per WSDOT'/2 inch HMA. Engineering inspection of the placement and compaction of all elements of the pavement section is recommended. Stormwater Drainage As discussed above, the planned pavement section of the paths in the BPA Park will be 2 inches AC (12 feet wide) over 6 inches CSTC (16 feet wide) over 3 inches scarified native soils (16 feet wide). Based on the above -described field investigations, native soils across both sites are comprised of weathered glacial tills (silty sands) with USCS classifications of SM. Based on limited testing at the site and our experience with tills in the area, we estimated a design infiltration rate of 360 minutes/inch for this material. We believe that this infiltration rate is conservative for the soils at the site. Based on the path geometry described above, it is our professional opinion that no point of concentration exists and that the Best Management Practices (BMPs) of the 1998 King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) should be used. Our discussions with the reviewing staff at the City of Federal Way indicated that the Appendix C requirements of the KCSWDM would be preferred for this site, due to its status as a Small Site. That Appendix at section C.2.4.4 allows small sites to use a sheet flow dispersion method, which it describes as the simplest form of BMP that is appropriate for use on driveways (very similar.to our situation). It recommends a 2 foot wide transition zone on either side of the path, which is what we already planned to do (see attached Figure C.2.1 from the KCSWDM). It also requires a 10 foot vegetated buffer on either side of the path, which is also part of the current plan for the park facilities. As a check on the assumption that the BMPs would function adequately at this site, we made an approximate numerical calculation of stormwater flows. Based on the path geometry and soil parameters described above, we ran the computer model in the 1998 KCSWDM for the 100 year storm at SeaTac (maximum storm at nearest available station) and determined that for a 12 foot wide section of impervious surface (the AC of the path), we could expect that a 4.5 inch thick gravel zone should suffice (see attached analysis). Since the current plan furnishes an infiltration zone that is functionally 16 feet wide and 6 inches thick, the analysis indicates that we could characterize the gravel base under the path as an infiltration trench of sufficient size to handle the runoff with a factor of safety of 2. Regarding downstream and offsite analysis, this was not performed since the net result of our activities is either the exact same runoff as was occurring under existing (present) conditions or a net decrease in Page 3 May 12, 2004 runoff due to the additional infiltration afforded through the CSTC and into the scarified weathered till. Additionally, there is no concentration of flow that allows conventional analysis of downstmamloffsite effects. C".locnre We believe that using the approach as described above represents the most cost-effective and practical means of obtaining good project performance at cost-effective rates given the geotechnical conditions at the site. We warrant that our analyses and recommendations were conducted in accordance with engineering principles and practices in common use in this area. Inasmuch as the recommendations assume certain quality levels of construction, unless field inspections of the construction are conducted by an experienced professional engineer familiar with the design assumptions, we can make no other warranty. We thank you for the opportunity to be of service and look forward to continuing to work with you on this project. We request that you notify E3RA for the pre -construction meeting, or at least 24 to 48 hours prior to first construction activity at the site. Please contact me directly if questions should arise or you require additional information. Sincerely yours, E3RA, Inc. Dean M. White, P.E.

Seattle, Washington 98101 RECEIVED MAY 2 7 2004 CITY OF FEDERAL WAY BUILDING DEPT. RE: SENSITIVE AREA REVIEW, ARMSTRONG SITE, FEDERAL WAY, WASMINGTON. - Dear Mr. Worthy, Adolfson Associates, Inc. (Adolfson) is pleased to present the following sensitive area review of the Armstrong site BPA Trail Phase IV and the Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control specification 3.05 prepared by Worthy and Associates for compliance with Federal Way Municipal Code (FWMC) Section 22-1359 Structures, improvements and land surface modification within regulated wetland buffers. The Armstrong site is located between SW 356a' Street and SW 360th Street, and bounded by.15Ih Avenue SW on the eastern side. The site is undeveloped except for two sets of BPA power lines, several cleared jeep trails, and a north -south oriented municipal water pipeline. The vegetation on the site has been impacted for the construction and ongoing maintenance of these utilities. Habitat impacts include heavily used jeep trails and maintenance brush cutting. The remaining vegetated areas are composed of a mix of native and non-native species including Scot's broom, Himalayan blackberry, thimbleberry, salA fireweed, velvetgrass, and tall fescue. A Class 1 wetland is located on the west portion of the site. Class 1 wetlands have a standard buffer of 200 feet. Trail Plan The trail plan for the Armstrong site includes a 12-foot wide paved trail and a bridge that will cross over a narrow section of the onsite wetland. The trail will be located within the 200-foot wetland buffer. The total area of impact to the buffer is approximately 115,000 square feet. The trail will be constructed mostly (approximately 80 percent) within areas already cleared by existing unimproved jeep trails. Two sections of the trail on the north and south ends will require the clearing of existing shrubs, mostly Scot's broom, Himalayan blackberry, salal, and thimbleberry. A native seed mix will be used to stabilize soils and restore vegetation cover in areas disturbed by trail construction. ADOLFSON ASSOCIATES, INC. 5309 Shilehole Avenue NW, Suite 200 Seattle, WA 98107 'It 205 7139 996E 1-K 206 769 96B4 adoymn�adoimn�nrry Armstrong Site — Trail Plan 05/10/04 Page 2 A temporary erosion and sedimentation control plan (TESC) has been designed!o-prevent--- --- --- erosion and sedimentation into the onsite wetland. The seeded areas will have a one-year contractor warranty and will be monitored and maintained by Federal Way Parks Department following acceptance of the work. Compliance with FWMC Section 22-1359 Under FWMC 22-1359, minor improvements such as walkways and benches may be located within a regulated wetland buffer if approved through process III, based on several criteria. These criteria are listed below in italics along with an explanation of how each criterion is met. (1) It will not adversely affect water quality. The TESC plan should prevent impacts to water quality. (2) It will not adversely affect the existing quality of wildlife habitat within the stream or setback area. Habitat changes are limited to the removal of a few shrubs, mostly a non-native invasive species, Scot's broom and Himalayan blackberry at north and south ends of the site. A native seed mix would be used to restore areas disturbed by construction. Impacts to the wetland would be avoided by bridging the narrow section of the wetland. The overall habitat quality should not be adversely affected by the project. (3) It will not adversely affect drainage or stormwater retention capabilities. Stormwater from the new trail system will be treated in accordance with the King County - Stormwater Manual. A low impact development re -infiltration and redistribution system will be used to disperse stormwater flows and provide onsite infiltration. Stormwater flows will be infiltrated onsite in re -seeded areas. No flows will be discharged directly into the wetland. Qualified geotechnical and stormwater engineers are designing this system for review by city engineers. (4) It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards. Trail construction specifications are being designed to prevent soil erosion and erosion hazards. Disturbed areas will be stabilized in accordance with the TESC plan. (5) It will not be materially detrimental to any otherproperty nor to the city as amhole. The new trail would provide recreational opportunities. It is being designed to maintain the environmental integrity of the site and surrounding areas. Buffer Seeding Recommendations Adolfson recommends seeding disturbed areas with red fescue, a native grass that provides erasion control and has been successful for other similar projects. Seeding (separately or within the same seed mix) could also include native lupine (Lupinus polyphyllus or L. polycarpus) and Armstrong Site — Trail Plan 05/10/04 Page 3 yarrow to increase species diversity and provide additional habitat functions (nectar, seeds, cover). Disturbed soils should be amended with compost before seeding in order to provide stormwater infiltration and to increase soil moisture retention for new seedlings and plants. Seeding should be done following late summer construction in mid -September through October. Lunitations Within the limitations of schedule, budget, and scope -of -work, we warrant that this study was conducted in accordance with generally accepted environmental science practices, including the technical guidelines and criteria in effect at the time that this study was performed. The results and conclusions expressed herein represent our best professional judgment, based upon information provided by the project proponent, in addition to that obtained during the course of this survey. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made.

The following information is provided in response to comments or requirements expressed in the Preapplication Conference Summary by Jane Gamble, dated March 11, 2004. 1. Minor Improvements in the Wetland Buffer FWCC 22-1359(d) Proposed Improvements: A paved, 12' wide path and footbridge are proposed within the wetland buffer. Low - impact drainage facilities are planned adjacent to the path. Disturbed areas will be revegetated. Criteria (1) It will not adversely affect water quality. The path is intended for pedestrian traffic. It may be used on rare occasions by pickup trucks for maintenance purposes. Since oil or other products from vehicles will not be present on the trail, the impact on water quality should be negligible. Criteria (2) It will not adversely affect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat. The potential for the project to affect wildlife in the wetland is negligible because the project will involve no in -water work and will not modify habitat conditions' within the wetland. Construction of the path will require clearing of the existing low, weedy vegetation and. Scot's broom. Revegetation with native plant species should provide better habitat than exists now. Temporary erosion and sediment control measures will be provided during construction to ensure that no sediments are transferred to the wetland. Criteria (3) It will not adversely affect drainage or stormwater retention capabilities. Stormwater infiltration is proposed alongside the path, so that no concentrated flows are created. Drainage on -site is intended to change very little, and additional retention or detention facilities are not envisioned. Criteria (4) It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards. The path is located in a fairly flat part of the site and a minimal amount of grading will be necessary to construct it. The soils on -site have not been identified as highly erodible. For these reasons, it is unlikely that unstable earth conditions or erosion hazards would be created. Criteria (S) It will not be materially detrimental to any other property in the area of the subject property nor to the city as a whole. Other properties will not be materially affected by the construction of the path. Instead, it will be a benefit to the neighborhood, and to the City to have this recreational resource. 2. Park Use FWCC 22-680 This city will determine the specific structures and facilities and the nature and extent of improvements within each park based on the following factors: a. The size and location of the park. The park property is approximately 20 acres in size: A five -acre parcel is in Pierce County and will not be developed by the City of Federal Way. On the remaining 15 acre parcel, about 12 acres will have some improvements. The park is adjacent to an existing neighborhood of single family residences. Development of the park is limited by the wetland and wetland buffer which encumber most of the property. determines to a large extent the types of facilities that are appropriate here. Sensitivity to the environmental setting and to neighbors' desires has resulted in a less -developed approach to park design in this location, which includes play facilities just outside the wetland buffer. b. The neighborhood in which it is located. The Armstrong site is located in Park Planning Area D, which has no parks or recreational facilities. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan 2000 states that neighborhood parks should serve a one-half mile radius. The closest park to this planning area is West Hylebos Wetlands Park, which has no active play facilities. It is more than one mile away. c. The recreational needs of the neighborhood in which it is located and the city or region as a whole. In meetings with neighborhood residents we learned that there are a large number of active children in the area. A playground was a high priority for the neighborhood. A paved path was also preferred, in addition to the network of informal trails that are present on the site. The Parks, Recreation and Open Space Comprehensive Plan identifies a need for an additional 11 neighborhood parks in the City. 2 d. The best interests of the public. Because this is a developed residential neighborhood with no public park or recreational facilities, the public has voiced a strong need and desire for this park. The neighborhood is also somewhat isolated from other park facilities. It is in the best interest of the public to provide a park in this location, and to provide the type of recreational facilities that will meet the needs of the public, as they have been expressed in public meetings. 3. Significant Trees FWCC 22-1568 Significant trees were surveyed and are depicted on Drawing Sheet 5, Site Plan. There are a total of 17 significant trees on the site. Only one will be removed, leaving a total of 94% significant trees to remain on the site. 4. Drought Tolerant Landscaping FWCC 22-1564 All tree, shrub and grass species to be planted are Pacific Northwest natives or drought tolerant. The grass species to be used for the lawn is also a native. 3 City of Federal Way Armstrong Park Site - Parcel Map JM12�3 35438 � ===�s*er.� /a 1 I25 23 22 [$ 21 35Q4 P T w i�10 > 1702 3 2 232 � SW 35M PL , • = !32W31�1' a Eg�� -1&7l ft35 1325F 13 [9 1�. a f SW 356TH ST �^ SW 356TH ST 1807 1 riTTA 1303 580Fli205 82 2 ' 35616 35617 35618 35617 35616 35615 i33 37 1 35624 35625 35624 35627 35626 35625 1 _ 1 35632 35631 35632 35631 35632 35631 S7 5' C . ; 35640 35637, 35638 35639 35640 35639 72 3 71 1 35648 35643 ' 35646 35645 35646 35647 1 g 35654 35655 35656 35657 3� 35652 35655 1 < 35662 35663 a a 35660 S81 Sal . 1 r1 w 35804 35805 35804 35803 35804 35805 17 7 j 7 i fy1 - 73 72 71 35812 35811 35810 35811 35812 35813 [T04 359) y S T , 35$QB V .rp5 35820 358119 1 35820 35819 35820 35823 .7 f 35915 71 lypg 35828 35831 1 35826 35829 35828 35829.

(Adolfson) performed wetland delineations and prepared this technical report for the Armstrong site, located in the City of Federal Way, Washington. All rights -of -entry to the subject property for the purpose of conducting this study was granted by the City of Federal .Way. The boundaries of the study area were established based on site maps provided by Worthy. The Scope of Work for this project included wetlands determinations and delineations all summarized in this technical report. A brief discussion of regulatory implications and permitting considerations is also included in this report. An analysis of potential wetlands impacts and the development of a mitigation plan were not included in this Scope of Work. The Armstrong site, an approximately 20-acre parcel, is located within a portion of the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) overhead transmission line right-of-way in the City of Federal Way, Washington (Section 30, Township 21N, and Range 4E). The site is bounded by SW 3561h Street to the north, and 15'h Avenue SW to the east (Figure 1). The site extends south across the King/Pierce County boundary and extends out of Federal Way into Pierce County. The sight has gently rolling topography, and the southern portion of the site slopes to the south. The site is undeveloped with the exception of the BPA transmission towers and access roads. One main un-paved trail extends north to south along the eastern property boundary, and many other trails are located throughout the western portions of the site. Two wetlands (Wetland A and Wetland D) were identified on the property. Wetland A occupies a portion. of the western half of the Armstrong site. The on -site portion of Wetland A is a 3.5- acre (153,888 square -foot) depressional, palustrine emergent and scrub/shrub headwater wetland. Wetland A continues off' -site to FeasWetland D occupies a portion of the southern half of the Armstrong site. It is a depressionsustrine emergent and scrub/shrub wetland. The on -site portion of Wetland A is approximately 3.5 acres in size. as three classes of vegetation: scrub/shrub, emergent, and open water. Most of the ee layer may have been eliminated through. utility maintenance. Wetland A wouJ!flike y be considered a Category 1 wetland pursuant to Federal Way Municipal Code (FWMC) Section 22-1357 - Wetland categories and standard buffers. Wetland A meets the requirements of a Category 1 wetland due to the presence of three classes of wetland vegetation, one of which is open water. The City's wetland inventory identifies Wetland A as a Category 1, and indicates bog habitat present -in the inventory notes. The standard wetland buffer for Category 1 wetlands is 200 feet. Wetland D would be considered a Category III wetland in Federal Way; however, because the wetland is located in un-incorporated Pierce County, it's regulatory status will not be addressed in this report.

SITE DESCRIPTION The Armstrong site, an approximately 20-acre parcel, is located within a portion of the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) overhead transmission line right-of-way in the City of Federal Way, Washington (Section 30, Township 21N, and Range 4E). The site is bounded by SW 356`h Street to the north, and 15`h Avenue SW to the east (Figure 1). The site extends south across the King/Pierce County boundary and extends out of Federal Way into Pierce County. The sight has gently rolling topography, and the southern portion of the site slopes to the south. The site is undeveloped with the exception of the BPA transmission towers and access roads. One main un-paved trail extends north to south along the eastern property boundary, and many other trails are located throughout the western portions of the site. WETLAND DEFINITION AND REGULATIONS Wetlands are formally defined by the Corps of Engineers (Corps) (Federal Register 1982), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (Federal Register 1986), the Washington Shoreline Management Act (SMA) (1971) and the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA) (1992) as "... those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or groundwater 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 conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas" (Federal Register, 1982, 1986). In addition, the SMA and the GMA definitions add: "Wetlands do not include those artificial wetlands intentionally created from non -wetland site, including, but not limited to, irrigation and drainage ditches, grass -lined swales, canals, detention facilities, wastewater treatment facilities, farm ponds, and landscape amenities, or those wetlands created after July 1, 1990 that were unintentionally created as a result of the construction of a road, street, or highway. Wetlands may include those artificially created wetlands intentionally created from non -wetland areas to mitigate the conversion of wetlands". Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 1 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT Numerous federal, state, and local regulations govern development and other activities in or near wetlands; at each level, there are typically several agencies charged with such powers (Washington State Department of Ecology, 1994). Specific regulatory implications concerning the subject property are summarized within this report. METHODS Two levels of investigation were conducted for the analysis of wetlands on the subject property: a review of existing information and an on -site investigation. Review of Existing Information A review of existing literature, maps, and other materials was conducted to identify wetlands or site characteristics indicative of wetlands on the subject property. Note that these sources can only indicate the likelihood of the presence of wetlands; actual wetland determinations must be based upon data obtained from field investigations. Several documents were available for this review: • U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 Topographic Map, Poverty Bay quadrangle (1981). • Soil Survey of King County Area, Washington (Snyder et.al., 1973). • Soil Survey of Pierce County Area, Washington. (Zulauf, A.S. 1979). National Wetland Inventory, Poverty Bay quadrangle (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 1987). • Hydric Soils of the State of Washington. (Natural Resources Conservation Service INRCS}, 1995). ■ King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio (1990). • Federal Way Wetland Inventory (2000). On -site Investigation Methods defined in the Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (Washington State Department of Ecology, 1997), a manual consistent with the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual ("1987 Manual") (Environmental Laboratory, 1987) were used to determine the presence and extent of wetlands on the subject property. Washington state and all local governments must use the state delineation manual to implement the SMA and/or the local regulations adopted pursuant to the GMA. The methodology outlined in the manual is based upon three essential characteristics of wetlands: (1) hydrophytic vegetation; (2) hydric soils; and (3) wetland hydrology. Field indicators of these three characteristics must all be page 2 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 1 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT present in order to make a positive wetland determination (unless problem areas or atypical situations are encountered). The "routine on -site determination method" was used to determine the wetland boundaries. The routine method is used for areas equal to or less than five acres in size, or for larger areas with relatively homogeneous vegetative, soil, and hydrologic properties. Formal data plots were established in areas of relatively homogeneous vegetation, where information regarding each of the three wetland parameters (vegetation, soils, and hydrology) was recorded. Dominant herbs and saplings/shrubs within a five-foot radius, and dominant trees and woody vines within a 30-foot radius from the data plot center were recorded on the data form (Washington State Department of Ecology, 1997). This information was used to distinguish wetlands from non -wetlands. If wetlands were determined to be present on the subject property, the wetland boundaries were delineated. Wetland boundaries were identified with sequentially - numbered colored flagging imprinted with the words "WETLAND DELINEATION." Data plot locations were marked with colored flagging. i WETLAND CHARACTERISTICS Hydrology Water must be present in order for wetlands to exist; however, it need not be present throughout the entire year. Wetland hydrology is considered to be present when there is permanent or periodic inundation or soil saturation for more than 12.5 percent of the growing season (typically two weeks in lowland Pacific Northwest areas). -Areas that are inundated or saturated for between 5 and 12.5 percent of the growing season in most years, may or may not be wetlands. Areas inundated or saturated for less than 5 percent of the growing season are non -wetlands (Ecology 1997). Indicators of wetland hydrology include observation of ponding or soil saturation, water marks, drift lines, drainage patterns, sediment deposits, oxidized rhizospheres, water -stained leaves, and local soil survey data. Where positive indicators of wetland hydrology are observed, it is assumed that wetland hydrology occurs for a sufficient period of the growing season to meet the wetland criteria, as described by Ecology (1997). Soils Hydric soils are indicative of wetlands. Hydric soils are defined as soils that are saturated, flooded, or ponded long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part of the soil profile (Federal Register, 1994). The NRCS, in cooperation with the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils, has compiled lists of hydric soils (NRCS, 1995). These lists identify soil series mapped by the NRCS that meet hydric soil criteria. It is common, however, for a map unit of non -wetland (non-hydric) soil to have inclusions of hydric soil, and Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 3 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT A vice versa. Therefore, field examination of soil conditions is important to determine if hydric soil conditions exist. The NRCS has developed a guide for identifying field indicators of hydric soils (NRCS, 1998). This list of hydric soil indicators is considered to be dynamic; revisions are anticipated to occur on a regular basis as a result of ongoing studies of hydric soils. Due to anaerobic conditions, hydric soils exhibit certain characteristics, collectively known as "redoximorphic features," that can be observed in the field (Vepraskas, 1999). Redoximorphic features include: high organic content, accumulation of sulfidic material (rotten egg odor), greenish- or bluish -gray color (gley formation), spots or blotches of different color interspersed with the dominant (or matrix) color (mottling), and dark soil colors (low soil chroma) (NRCS, 1998; Vepraskas, 1999). Soil colors are described both by common color name (for example, "dark brown") and by a numerical description of their hue, value, and chroma (for example, 10YR 2/2) as identified on a Munsell soil color chart (Munsell Color, 2000). Soil color is determined from a moist soil sample. Vegetation Plants must be specially adapted for life under saturated or anaerobic conditions to grow in wetlands. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has determined the estimated probability of each plant species' occurrence in wetlands and has accordingly assigned a "wetland indicator status" (WIS) to each species (USFWS, 1997). Plants are categorized as obligate (OBL), facultative wetland (FACW), facultative (FAC), facultative upland (FACU), upland (UPL), not listed (NL), or no indicator status (NI). Definitions for each indicator status are listed in the Glossary (Appendix A). Species with an indicator status of OBL, FACW, or FAC are considered adapted for life in saturated or anaerobic soil conditions. Such species are referred to as "hydrophytic" vegetation. A (+) or (-) sign following the WIS signifies greater or lesser likelihood, respectively, of being found in wetland conditions. Areas of relatively homogeneous vegetative composition can be characterized by "dominant" species (see Glossary in Appendix A). The indicator status of the dominant species within each vegetative strata is used to determine if the plant community may be characterized as hydrophytic. The vegetation of an area is considered to be hydrophytic if greater than 50% of the dominant plant cover is comprised of species having an indicator status of OBL, FACW, or FAC. r Common plant names are used throughout this text. The common and taxonomic (scientific) names -and wetland indicator status for each plant noted is presented in Appendix B. Scientific nomenclature of all plant species encountered follows that of the USFWS (1997). Where the taxonomic names of plant species have been recently changed, former. names (synonymies) are included in Appendix B. page 4 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT FINDINGS The following. sections describe the results of the field investigation conducted by Lizzie Zemke, Alex Ottley, Nancy Job, Beth Larsen, and Amy Dearborn on the Armstrong site on April 14, 16, 21, and 29. These sections describe the wetland(s) found on the site, wetland functions and values, streams and upland habitats, and observations of wildlife. Ten data plots were established within relatively uniform areas of vegetation on the site. Data sheets, which correspond to formal data plots, are provided in Appendix C. Existing Information A review of existing information was conducted. The King County Sensitive Areas Map Folio did not identify any wetlands within the project site; however, the USFWS National Wetland Inventory (Poverty Bay Quadrangle) identified a palustrine scrub -shrub wetland within the northern portion of the project site (Figure 2). The City of Federal Way,Wetland Inventory (2000) identifies Wetland A as a Category 1, and indicates bog habitat present in the inventory notes. Based on the King County Soil Survey (1973), three soils types are mapped on the property (Figure 3). Seattle muck (Sk) is located in the west portion of the site. The Seattle series is made up of very poorly drained organic soils that formed in material derived primarily from sedges. These soils are in depressions and valleys on the glacial till plain and also in the river and stream valleys. Everett gravelly sandy loam, 5 to 15 percent slopes (EvC) is mapped on the majority of the northern portion of the site. The Everett series is made up of somewhat excessively drained soils that are underlain by very gravelly sand at a depth of 18 to 36 inches. These soils formed in very gravelly glacial outwash deposits, under conifers. Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 0 to 6 percent slopes (King County (AgB) Pierce County (113)) is mapped in the south portion of the site. The Alderwood series is made up of moderately well drained soils that formed under conifers, in glacial deposits. Seattle muck is considered a hydric soil by the Natural Resources Conservation Service Hydric Soils List for King County (NRCS, 1995) Wetlands Determinations Two wetlands (Wetland A and Wetland D) were identified on the property. The following describes the wetland and the upland habitats found on the site. Figure 4 shows the approximate location of Wetland A on the Armstrong site. Wetland D was surveyed but is not shown on the survey map. A survey of the wetland boundaries has been prepared by Baseline Engineering. Wetland A Location and GeornoFphic Setting. Wetland A occupies a portion of the western half of the Armstrong site. The on -site portion of Wetland A is a 3.5-acre (153,888 square -foot) depressional, palustrine emergent and scrub/shrub headwater wetland. Wetland A continues off - site to the east. Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 5 5/28/03 - 23028 r Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT HdroloQv. Wetland A is influenced by precipitation, surface water runoff and shall ow groundwater. Indicators of wetland hydrology that were observed at Wetland A include soils that were saturated to the surface and standing water. Soils. In general, the soil observed in Wetland A did not match either the Seattle muck or the Everett gravelly sandy loam series description. Soils at Data Plot 1 were black (10YR 2/1) sandy silt loam from 0 to10 inches, and very dark brown (10YR 2/2) gravelly sandy loam from 10 to 18 inches in depth. In Data Plot 3, soils were very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) with few distinct, small, strong brown (7.5YR 4/6) mottles from 0 to 8 inches, and from 8 to 14 inches in depth, soil is dark brown (10YR 3/3) loamy sandy gravel with concretions and very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) diffuse, large, and common mottles. Data Plot 8 contained gravelly sandy loam soil that is very dark grey (10YR 3/1) from 0 to 17 inches, with dark yellowish brown (10YR 4/4) distinct, small, and common mottles. These low chroma soils with mottles are considered hydric soils. Vegetation. Wetland A is generally characterized by a deciduous scrub/shrub zone along the outer edges, and emergent vegetation in the middle, which lies along the western property boundary. Dominant plant species include Douglas spirea, salmonberry, swamp rose, and willow species in the shrub layer. Labrador tea, buttercup, and slough sedge dominate the emergent areas. Wetland D Location and Geomorphic Setting. Wetland D occupies a portion of the southern half of the Armstrong site. It is a depressional, palustrine emergent and scrub/shrub wetland. Hydrology. rology. Wetland D appears to be influenced by precipitation, surface water runoff, and shallow groundwater. Indicators of wetland hydrology include standing water and soils that were saturated to the surface. Soils. In general, the soil observed in Wetland D did not match either the Seattle muck or the Everett gravelly sandy loam series description. Soils observed in Wetland D consisted of saturated black (10YR) mucky silt loam from one to 16 inches. Ve tation. Wetland D is generally characterized by deciduous scrub/shrub vegetation. Dominant plant species include Douglas spirea, salmonberry, and willow species. Very little emergent vegetation occurred beneath the dense shrub layer. page 6 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT Upland Description The upland portions of the Armstrong site are characterized by disturbed vegetation due to the BPA power line right-of-way. The north portion of the Armstrong site is characterized by relatively flat topography with upland blackberry thickets and open, grass -dominated meadows. Progressing to the south, the topography becomes hummocky, and the vegetation is dominated by large patches of salal, especially surrounding the wetland edges. Upland vegetation in the middle of the site is characterized by small trees such as madrone and bitter cherry, and shrub species such as swamp rose, cascara, salal, and willow. Scot's broom, Japanese knotweed, and blackberry species were observed in the middle of the site. Wildlife Observations Several bird species including black capped chickadee and American robin were observed during the site visit. Other mammal, bird, reptile, and amphibian species not observed during the field visit are expected to use the habitats available on the property. REGULATORY IMPLICATIONS Wetlands are regulated at the local, state, and federal level. Agencies with jurisdiction include the U.S. Corps of Engineers, Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology), and the City of Federal Way. Regulatory implications associated with development in wetlands include, but may not be limited to, those discussed in this, section. All applicable permits should be obtained prior to developing or otherwise altering wetlands. Local Regulations The on -site portion of Wetland A is approximately 3.5 acres in size. It has three classes of vegetation: scrub/shrub, emergent, and open water. Most of the tree layer may have been eliminated through utility maintenance. Wetland A would likely be considered a Category 1 wetland pursuant to Federal Way Municipal Code (FWMC) Section 22-1357 - Wetland categories and standard buffers. Wetland A meets the requirements of a Category 1 wetland due to the presence of three classes of wetland vegetation, one of which is open water. The City's wetland inventory identifies Wetland A as a Category 1, and indicates bog habitat present in the inventory notes. The standard wetland buffer for Category 1 wetlands is 200 feet. Wetland D would be considered a Category III wetland in Federal Way; however, because the wetland is located in un-incorporated Pierce County, it's regulatory status will not be addressed in this report. Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 7 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT 3 FWMC Section 22-1358 Structures, improvements and land surface modifications within regulated wetlands, part (b) Public Parks, indicates "The city may allow pedestrian access through a regulated wetland in conjunction with a public park. The access, if approved, must be designed to the maximum extent feasible to protect the wetland from any adverse effects or impacts of the access and to limit the access to the defined access area." This allowance for public access in arks is also P p o based on this same section part (e) Required information. A mitigation plan would be required for wetland impacts at a ratio of 6:1 for creation or restoration, and 12:1 for enhancement. Wetland creation, restoration, and enhancement opportunities exist on -site and adjacent to Wetland A. Wetland buffer modifications are outlined in FWMC Section 22-1359 Structures, improvements and land surface modifications within regulated wetland buffers. Footbridges, walkways, and benches are allowed in wetland buffers pursuant to conditions outlined in part (d) Minor improvements. State Regulations Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act directs each state to certify that proposed in -water activities will not adversely affect water quality or violate state aquatic protection laws. Ecology is responsible for administering the state certification program. The state certification process is usually triggered through a Section 404 permit application. The response from Ecology may be approval, approval with conditions, denial, or a request for delay due to lack of information. Any conditions attached to the 401 Certification become part of the Section 404 permit. Federal Regulations The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers regulates discharges of dredged or fill materials into waters of the United States, including wetlands under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The purpose of the Clean Water Act is to "restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the Nation's waters." A Section 404 permit maybe required if a proposed project involves filling wetlands. The Corps has established two types of permit programs under Section 404: nationwide and individual. Nationwide permits are issued when a proposed activity will have minimal adverse impacts to wetlands. All other projects are permitted under the individual permitting process. The Corps determines which permitting process is used for a proposed project. The Corps will require that wetland impacts be avoided or minimized to the extent practicable, and mitigation will likely be required for unavoidable wetland impacts. page 8 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 t � � ArmstrongSite Wetlands Stud - DRAFT Y LIMITATIONS It should be recognized that the delineation of wetland boundaries and functional value assessments are inexact sciences; wetland professionals may disagree on the precise location of wetland boundaries or the functional value of a wetland. The final determination of wetland boundaries is the responsibility of the resource agencies that regulate activities in and around. wetlands. Accordingly, all wetland delineations performed for this study, as well as the conclusions drawn in this report, should be reviewed by the appropriate regulatory agencies prior to any detailed site planning or construction activities. Further, wetlands are by definition transition areas; wetland boundaries may change with time. We therefore recommend that this wetlands study be verified with the appropriate regulatory agencies as soon as practical. Within the limitations of schedule, budget, and scope -of -work, we warrant that this study was conducted in accordance with generally accepted environmental science practices, including the technical guidelines and criteria in effect at the time this study was performed, as outlined in the Methods section. The results and conclusions of this report represent the authors' btst professional judgment, based upon information provided by the project proponent in addition to that obtained during the course of this study.

FEDERAL WAY, WASHINGTON p Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT APPENDIX A: GLOSSARY OF TERMS Armstrong Site Wetlands Study -_DRAFT agricultural wetland - areas where wetland soils and hydrology remain, but hydrophytic vegetation have been removed to allow a crop to be grown. anaerobic - a situation in which molecular oxygen is absent (or effectively so) from the environment. atypical situation - areas in which one or more parameters (vegetation, soil, and/or hydrology) have been sufficiently altered by recent human activities or natural events to preclude the presence of wetland indicators of the parameter. Recent is intended to mean that period of time since legal jurisdiction of an applicable law began. best management practices (BMW's) - physical, structural, and/or managerial practices that, when used singly or in combination, prevent or reduce pollutant discharges. buffer - a designated area along the perimeter of a stream or wetland which is regulated to control the negative effects of adjacent development from intruding into the aquatic resource. concretion - a local concentration of chemical compounds (e.g. calcium carbonate, iron oxide) in the form of a grain or nodule of varying size, shape, hardness, and color. Concretions of significance in hydric soil are usually iron and/or manganese oxides occurring at or near the soil surface, which develop under conditions of prolonged soil saturation. dominant species - a plant species that exerts a controlling influence on or defines the character of a community. emergent - a plant that grows rooted in shallow water, the bulk of which emerges from the water and stands vertically. Usually applied to non -woody vegetation. emergent wetland - in the USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), a wetland characterized by erect, rooted, herbaceous hydrophytes, excluding mosses and lichens. enhancement - an improvement in the functions and values of an existing wetland. fill material - any material placed in an area to increase surface elevation. forested wetland - in the USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), a wetland characterized by woody vegetation that is six meters (20 feet) tall or taller. 404 permit - a permit issued by the U.S.-Army Corps of Engineers under Section 404 of the federal Clean Water Act, which allows an activity (filling) within a wetland. A 404 permit usually requires compensation or mitigation for the allowed use in a wetland. gleyed - a soil condition resulting from prolonged soil saturation, which is manifested by the presence of bluish or greenish colors through the soil mass or in mottles (spots or streaks) among other colors. Gleying occurs under reducing soil conditions resulting from soil saturation, by which iron is reduced predominantly to the ferrous state. Adolfson Associates, Inc. page A-1 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT ground water — that portion of the water below the ground surface that is under greater pressure than atmospheric pressure. herbaceous - with the characteristics of an herb; a plant with no persistent woody stem above ground. homogenous vegetation - a situation in which the same plant species association occurs throughout an area. hydric soil — a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part. Hydric soils that occur in areas having positive indicators of hydrophytic vegetation and wetland hydrology are wetland soils. hydrology — The science dealing with the properties, distribution, and circulation of water. hydrophyte - any plant growing in water or on a substrate that is at least periodically deficient in oxygen as a result of excessive water content. hydrophytic vegetation — The sum total of plant life growing in water or on a substrate that is at least periodically deficient in oxygen as a result of excessive water content. When hydrophytic vegetation comprises a community where indicators of hydric soils and wetland hydrology also occur, the area has wetland vegetation. in -kind compensation - compensation for lost wetland habitat with a replacement wetland of the same habitat type. inundation — a condition in which water from any source temporarily or permanently covers a land surface. invasive plant species - those species which become established easily in disturbed conditions, reproduce readily, and often establish monocultures. Most invasive plants are non-native species (i.e. were introduced to the northwest intentionally or unintentionally, by humans). Examples of common invasive species in the Pacific Northwest are: Scot's broom, Canada thistle, hedge bindweed, English ivy, reed canarygrass, purple loosestrife, and soft rush.- lacustrine - in USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), freshwater (less than 0.5 parts per thousand ocean -derived salts) area with all of the following characteristics: (1) situated in a topographic depression or a dammed river channel; (2) has less than 30% coverage of trees, shrubs, persistent emergents, mosses, or lichens; and (3) total area exceeds eight hectares (20 acres). For areas less than 20 acres, an area is considered lacustrine if it has an active wave - formed or bedrock shoreline or is deeper than 6.6 feet in the deepest part. page A-2 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 ^�l Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT mitigation (as per WAC 197-11-766) (1) Avoiding the impact altogether by not taking a certain action or parts of an action; (2) Minimizing impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the action and its implementation, by using appropriate technology, or by taking affirmative steps to avoid or reduce impacts; (3) Rectifying the impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the affected environment; (4) Reducing or eliminating the impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the action; (5) Compensating for the impact by replacing, enhancing or providing substitute resources or environments: and/or (6) Monitoring the impact and taking appropriate corrective measures. mottles - spots or blotches of different color or shades of color interspersed within the dominant color in a soil layer, usually resulting from the presence of periodic reducing soil conditions. 100-year floodplain - the flood with a 100-year recurrence interval; those areas identified as Zones A, Al-30, AE, AH, AO, A99, V, V1-30, and VE on most current Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Rate Insurance Maps, or areas identified as 100-year floodplain on applicable local Flood Management Program maps. ordinary high-water mark - the line on the shore established by the fluctuations of water and indicated by physical characteristics such as: a clear, natural line impressed on the bank; changes in the character of soil or vegetation; shelving; or the presence of a line of litter or debris. out -of -kind compensation - compensation for lost wetland habitat with a replacement wetland of a different habitat type. palustrine - in USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), freshwater (less than 0.5 parts per thousand ocean -derived salts) area dominated by trees, shrubs, persistent emergents, mosses, or lichens. They can be non -tidal or tidal. Palustrine also includes wetlands lacking this vegetation, but has the following characteristics: (1) area less than 20 acres; (2) no active wave - formed or bedrock shoreline; (3) water depth in the deepest part is less than 6.6 feet at low water. persistent emergents - emergents which remain standing at least until the beginning of the next growing season. reach - a length of channel with uniform characteristics. Adolfson Associates, Inc. page A-3 5/28/03 - 23028 Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT restoration - to improve a disturbed or altered wetland by returning wetland parameters which may be missing. The restoration may return an original wetland habitat or may alter the wetland for some other desired outcome. rhizosphere - the zone of soil in which interactions between living plant roots and microorganisms occur. riverine - in USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), freshwater (less than 0.5 parts per thousand ocean -derived salts) areas that are contained within a channel and which are not dominated by trees, shrubs, and persistent emergents, for example, rivers and streams. saturated soil conditions - a condition in which all easily drained voids (pores between soil particles) in the root zone are temporarily or permanently filled with water to the soil surface at pressures greater than atmospheric. scrub -shrub - in USFWS classification system (Cowardin et al., 1979), areas dominated by woody vegetation less than 6 meters (20 feet) tall. The species include tree shrubs, young trees, and tress or shrubs that are smaller stunted because of environmental conditions. section 404 permit - see "404 Permit". soil matrix - the portion of a given soil having the dominant color. In most cases, the matrix will be the portion of the soil having more than 50 percent of the same color. sub -catchment - a subdivision of a drainage basin generally determined by topography. synonymy - different scientific names for the same species. wetland - transitional lands between terrestrial and aquatic systems, where the water table is usually at or near the surface or the land is covered by shallow water. Wetlands must have one or more of the following attributes: (1) at least periodically, the land supports predominantly hydrophytes; (2) the substrate is predominantly undrained hydric soil; and (3) the substrate is non -soil and is saturated with water or covered by shallow water at some time during the growing season of each year. wetland boundary — the point on the ground at which a shift from wetlands to non -wetlands or aquatic habitat occurs. These boundaries usually follow contours. wetland hydrology - the total of all wetness characteristics in areas that are inundated or have saturated soils for a sufficient duration to support hydrophytic vegetation. wetland indicator status (WIS) - categories of plant species based upon the estimated probabilities (expressed as a frequency of occurrence) of a species occurring in a wetland or non - wetland. Wetland indicator statuses include the following: • Obligate (OBL): species that almost always occur wetlands under natural conditions (estimated probability >99%). page A-4 Adolfson Associates, Inc. 5/28/03 - 23028 Armstrong Site Wetlands Study - DRAFT I i 1. ■ Facultative wetland (FACW): species that usually occur in wetlands (estimated probability 67 to 99%), but are occasionally found in non -wetlands. • Facultative (FAQ: Species that are equally likely to occur in wetlands or non - wetlands (estimated probability 34 to 66%). • Facultative upland (FACU): species that usually occur in non -wetlands (estimated probability 67 to 99%), but are occasionally found in wetlands. ■ Upland (UPL): species that almost always occur in non -wetlands under normal conditions (estimated probability >99%). ■ Not listed (NL): species that are not listed and are presumed to be upland species. • No indicator status (NI): species that have not yet been evaluated. A (+) or (-) following the WIS signifies a greater or lesser likelihood of being found in wetland conditions.

ALTA Owner's Policy 1992 (Revised 10/17/92) Page 1 of 4 NF.17.07.00; sc No.: 11727 Valid Only If Schedules A and B are Attached CONDITIONS AND STIPULATIONS Order No.: 10034074 1. DEFINITION OF TERMS The following terms when used in this policy mean: (a) "insured": the insured named in Schedule A, and, subject to any rights or defenses the Company would have had against the named insured, those who succeed to the interest of the named insured by operation of law as distinguished from purchase including, but not limited to, heirs, distributees, devisees, survivors, personal representatives, next of kin, or corporate or fiduciary successors. (b) "insured claimant": an insured claiming loss'or damage. (c) "knowledge" or "known": actual knowledge, not constructive knowledge or notice which may be imputed to an insured by reason of the public records as defined in this policy or any other records which impart constructive notice of matters affecting the land. (d) "land": the land described or referred to in Schedule (A), and improvements affixed thereto which by law constitute real property. The term "land" does not include any property beyond the lines of the area described or referred to in Schedule (A), nor any right, title, interest, estate or easement in abutting streets, roads, avenues, alleys, lanes, ways or waterways, but nothing herein shall modify or limit the extent to which a right of access to and from the land is insured by this policy. (e) "mortgage": mortgage, deed of trust, trust deed, or other security instrument. (f) "public records": records established under state statutes at Date of Policy for the purpose of imparting constructive notice of matters relating to real property to purchasers for value and without knowledge. With respect to Section I(a) (iv) of the Exclusions From Coverage, "public records" shall also include environmental protection liens filed in the records of the clerk of the United States district court for the district in which the land is located. (g) "unmarketability of the title": an alleged or apparent matter affecting the title to the land, not excluded or excepted from coverage, which would entitle a purchaser of the estate or interest described in Schedule A to be released from the obligation to purchase by virtue of a contractual condition requiring the delivery of marketable title. 2. CONTINUATION OF INSURANCE AFTER CONVEYANCE OF TITLE The coverage of this policy shall continue in force as of Date of Policy in favor of an insured only so long as the insured retains an estate or interest in the land, or holds an indebtedness secured by a purchase money mortgage given by a purchaser from the insured, or only so long as the insured shall have liability by reason of covenants of warranty made by the insured in any transfer or conveyance of the estate or interest. This policy shall not continue in force in favor of any purchaser from the insured of either (i) an estate or interest in the land, or (ii) an indebtedness secured by a purchase money mortgage given to the insured. 3. NOTICE OF CLAIM TO BE GIVEN BY INSURED CLAIMANT The insured shall notify the Company promptly in writing (i) in case of any litigation as set forth in Section 4(a) below, (ii) in case knowledge shall come to an insured hereunder of any claim of title or interest which is adverse to the title to the estate or interest, as insured, and which might cause loss or damage for which the Company may be liable by virtue of this policy, or (iii) if title to the estate or interest, as insured, is rejected as unmarketable. If prompt notice shall not be given to the Company, then as to the insured all liability of the Company shall terminate with regard to the matter or matters for which prompt notice is required; provided, however, that failure to notify the Company shall in no case prejudice the rights of any insured under this policy unless the Company shall be prejudiced by the failure and then only to the extent of the prejudice. 4. DEFENSE AND PROSECUTION OF ACTIONS; DUTY OF INSURED CLAIMANT TO COOPERATE (a) Upon written request by the insured and subject to the options contained in Section 6 of these Conditions and Stipulations, the Company, at its own cost and without unreasonable delay, shall provide for the defense of an insured in litigation in which any third party asserts a claim adverse to the title or interest as insured, but only as to those stated causes of action alleging a defect, lien or encumbrance or other matter insured against by this policy. The Company shall have the right to select counsel of its choice (subject to the right of the insured to object for reasonable cause) to represent the insured as to those stated causes of action and shall not be liable for and will not pay the fees of any other counsel. The Company will not pay any fees, costs or expenses incurred by the insured in the defense of those causes of action which allege matters not insured by this policy. (b) The Company shall have the right, at its own cost, to institute and prosecute any action or proceeding or to do any other act which in its opinion may be necessary or desirable to establish the title to the estate or interest, as insured, or to prevent or reduce loss or damage to the insured. The Company may take any appropriate action under the terms of this policy, whether or not it shall be liable hereunder, and shall not thereby concede liability or waive any provision of this policy. If the Company shall exercise its rights under this paragraph, it shall do so diligently. (c) Whenever the Company shall have brought an action or interposed a defense as required or permitted by the provisions of this policy, the Company may pursue any litigation to final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction and expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to appeal from any adverse judgment or order. (d) In all cases where this policy permits or requires the Company to prosecute or provide for the defense of any action or proceeding, the insured shall secure to the Company the right to so prosecute or provide defense in the action or proceeding, and all appeals therein, and permit the Company to use, at its option, the name of the insured for this purpose. Whenever requested by the Company, the insured, at the Company's expense, shall give the Company all reasonable aid (i) in any action or proceeding, securing evidence, obtaining witnesses, prosecuting or defending the action or proceeding, or effecting settlement, and (ii) in any other lawful act which in the opinion of the Company may be necessary or desirable to establish the title to the estate or interest as insured. If the Company is prejudiced by the failure of the insured to furnish the required cooperation, the Company's obligations to the insured under the policy shall terminate, including any liability or obligation to defend, prosecute, or continue any litigation, with regard to the matter or matters requiring such cooperation. S. PROOF OF LOSS OR DAMAGE In addition to and after the notices required under Section 3 of these Conditions and Stipulations have been provided the Company, a proof of loss or damage signed and sworn to by the insured claimant shall be furnished to the Company within 90 days after the insured claimant shall ascertain the facts giving rise to the loss or damage. The proof of loss or damage shall describe the defect in, or lien or encumbrance on the title, or other matter insured against by this policy which constitutes the basis of loss or damage and shall state, to the extent possible, the basis of calculating the amount of the loss or damage. If the Company is prejudiced by the failure of the insured claimant to provide the required proof of loss or damage, the Company's obligations to the insured under the policy shall terminate, including any liability or obligation to defend, prosecute, or continue any litigation, with regard to the matter or matters requiring such proof of loss or damage. In addition, the insured claimant may reasonably be required to submit to examination under oath by any authorized representative of the Company and shall produce for examination, inspection and copying, at such reasonable times and places as may be designated by any authorized representative of the Company, all records, books, ledgers, checks, correspondence and memoranda, whether bearing a date before or after Date of Policy, which reasonably pertain to the loss or damage.

All information designated as confidential by the insured claimant provided to the Company pursuant to this Section shall not be disclosed to others unless, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, it is necessary in the administration of the claim. Failure of the insured claimant to submit for examination under oath, produce other reasonably requested information or grant permission to secure reasonably necessary information from third parties as required in this paragraph shall terminate any liability of the Company under this policy as to that claim. 6.

The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to costs, attorneys' fees and expenses for which the Company is liable under this policy, and shall only apply to that portion of any loss which exceeds, in the aggregate, 10 percent of the Amount of Insurance stated in Schedule A. (c) The Company will pay only those costs, attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in accordance with Section 4 of these Conditions and Stipulations. 8. APPORTIONMENT If the land described in Schedule A consists of two or more parcels which are not used as a single site, and a loss is established affecting one or more of the parcels but not all, the loss shall be computed and settled on a pro rats basis as if the amount of insurance under this policy was divided pro rata as to the value on Date of Policy of each separate Parcel to the whole, exclusive of any improvements made subsequent to Date of Policy, unless a liability or value has otherwise been agreed upon as to each parcel by the Company and the insured at the time of the issuance of this policy and shown by an express statement or by an endorsement attached to this policy. 9.

(c) The Company shall not be liable for loss or damage to any insured for liability voluntarily assumed by the insured in settling any claim or suit without the prior written consent of the Company. 10. REDUCTION OF INSURANCE; REDUCTION OR TERMINATION OF LIABILITY All payments under this policy, except payments made for costs, attorneys' fees and expenses, shall reduce the amount of the insurance pro tanto. 11. LIABILITY NONCUMULATIVE It is expressly understood that the amount of insurance under this policy shall be reduced by any amount the Company may pay under any Policy insuring a mortgage to which exception is taken in Schedule B or to which the insured has agreed, assumed, or taken subject, or which is hereafter executed by an Insured and which is a charge or lien on the estate or interest described or referred to in Schedule A, and the amount so paid shall be deemed a payment under this policy to the insured owner. 12. PAYMENT OF LOSS (a) No payment shall be made without producing this policy for endorsement of the payment unless the policy has been lost or destroyed, in which case proof of loss or destruction shall be furnished to the satisfaction of the Company, (b) When liability and the extent of loss or damage has been definitely fixed in accordance with these Conditions and Stipulations, the loss or damage shall be payable within 30 days thereafter. 13.

The insured claimant shall permit the Company to sue, compromise or settle in the name of the insured claimant and to use the name of the insured claimant in any transaction or litigation involving these rights or remedies. If a payment on account of a claim does not fully cover the loss of the insured claimant, the Company shall be subrogated to these rights and remedies in the proportion which the Company's payment bears to the whole amount of the loss. If loss should result from any act of the insured claimant, as stated above, that act shall not void this policy, but the Company, in that event, shall be required to pay only that part of any losses Insured against by this policy which shall exceed the amount, if any, lost to the Company by reason of the impairment by the Insured claimant of the Company's right of subrogation. (b) The Company's Rights Against Non-insured Obligors, The Company's right of subrogation against non-insured obligors shall exist and shall include, without limitation, the rights of the insured to indemnities, guaranties, other policies of insurance or bonds, notwithstanding any terms or conditions contained in those instruments which provide for subrogation rights by reason of this policy.

We may share internally and with nonaffiliated third parties in order to carry out and service your transaction, to protect against fraud or unauthorized transactions, for institutional risk control, and to provide information to government and law enforcement agencies. Companies within a family may share certain information among themselves in order to identify and market their own products that they think may be useful to you. Credit information about you is shared only to facilitate your transaction or for some other purpose permitted by law. ■ How we protect your information. We restrict access to nonpublic personal information about you to those employees who need the information to provide products or services to you. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with law to guard your nonpublic personal information. We reinforce the company's privacy policy with our employees. • Agents that may be covered by this policy. Often, your transaction goes through a title insurance agent.
