Doc. I.D. 29833 04-102807 FILE CITY OF Federal Ways FINDINGS FOR PROJECT APPROVAL Federal Way Community Center Application # 04-102807-Up The following are findings for recommending approval of the construction of a Community Center at Celebration Park, 33190 9"' Avenue South, Federal Way, WA. 1. The applicant has proposed to construct a new 78,500 square -foot community center containing indoor recreation and community services including gymnasium, fitness center, swimming pool, locker rooms, kitchen, cafe, and meeting/multi-purpose rooms. Site improvements, including parking lot development, site landscaping, on -site storm drainage improvements, and right-of-way and utility extension over an approximate 10-acre area within the 83-acre Celebration Park site will be provided. Approximately 3.5 acres of conifer forest will be designated an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. 2. Zoning for the subject site is Office Park (OP). Government facility uses are permitted uses in OP zoning districts pursuant to Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-833 subject to Process III project approval. The 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan (FWCP) designation for the subject site is Park and Open Space. A parcel map and a Community Center Layout Map, prepared by the City of Federal Way GIS, dated and received July 16, 2004, identifies the subject site as the Celebration Park site located southeast of South 324`h Street and the BPA trail, and west of 131h Place South. The Celebration Park site consists of two parcels: 20-acre King County Tax Parcel number 172104-913 8 and 63-acre King County Tax Parcel number 172104-9014. The proposed Community Center is to be developed on the western half of Parcel 172104-9138 - an approximate 10-acre portion of the Celebration Park site. 4. The Responsible Official of the City of Federal Way issued a Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance on November 6, 2004, pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act. The comment and appeal period for this determination was completed on December 6, 2004, with no corrections to the City's initial determination. The Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, Federal Way Application number 04-102808-00-SE is hereby incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. The proposed community center and associated site development is proposed to encroach upon a designated 200-foot wetland buffer associated with a Category 1 Wetland located within the Celebration Park site and northeast of the proposed community center. The applicant is proposing the designation of approximately 3.5 acres of existing conifer forest as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement as mitigation for the loss of approximately 1.7 acres of buffer area and associated habitat. This proposed development within a required buffer area and proposed mitigation will be subject to Process IV review, Hearing Examiner's Decision. Process IV requires review and approval by the City of Federal Way's Hearing Examiner. A Hearing Examiner hearing is tentatively scheduled for December 28, 2004. The�roject will add approximately 6.4 acres of impervious surface in the form of building area, parking lots, and new right-of-way across the subject site. With the increase of impervious areas, there is an increase to the peak stormwater release rate leaving the project, and on -site detention is required. Two detention ponds proposed at the southwest and southeast corners of the building site, along with an underground detention vault located at the northwest corner of the building site, will provide flow control and water quality for the project site. Drainage components shall conform to the King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM) and City amendments. 7. The applicant shall extend South 333`d Street eastward to intersect with 91h Avenue South. This new roadway shall be developed to cross section type M street standards, which shall include construction of 36-foot pavement width from edge of curb to edge of curb, curb, gutter, six-foot wide planter strips with street trees, and eight -foot wide sidewalks on both sides of the roadway, within a 70-foot right- of-way. Pavement construction will extend from the current terminus of South 333`d Street to the intersection with the existing 9`h Avenue South. Sidewalks shall be extended to meet existing sidewalks along South 333`d Street. Sidewalks will be extended along the west side of 9`h Avenue South to the existing sidewalk to the south of the intersection with the new roadway and to the existing path north of the intersection as depicted on the civil drawing C 101 dated and received September 22, 2004. The southern property entrance from the newly constructed access roadway (South 333`d Street extension) shall be restricted to right -in and right -out only. The western property entrance shall be via a roundabout as depicted on the civil site plan drawing C101. All requited right-of-way improvements along the extension of South 333`d Street shall be installed, inspected and approved by the City and Washington State Department of Transportation where applicable before certificate of occupancy will be granted. 8. Building height proposed for the community center building generally meets the height limit of 35 feet for the OP zoning district. Portions of the community center building are taller than 35 feet. The portions of the building that exceed 35 feet range in height from 36 feet, 10 1/2 inches to 46 feet, 4 1/2 inches tall. Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-833 exceptions to the height limit are permitted when the following criteria are met; a. The additional height is necessary to accommodate the particular use conducted in the building; and b. The subject property does not adjoin a residential zone; and c. Each required yard abutting the structure is increased one foot for each one foot the structure exceeds the 35 feet above average building elevation; and d. The increased height will not block views designated by the comprehensive plan; and e. The increased height is consistent with goals and policies for the area of the subject property as established by the comprehensive plan. The proposed portions of the buildings that exceed the 35-foot height limit accommodate unique uses conducted inside the building including the slide tower for the leisure pool, a rock -climbing wall, and a mezzanine area containing facilities overlooking the pool area. The portion of the property where the community center is being built adjoins office park -zoned property. All of the facades that exceed the 35-foot height limit are located well beyond the required setbacks. The increased height does not block views designated by the comprehensive plan, and the increased height is consistent with the goals and policies for the area of the subject property. Findings for Project Approval 04-102807-UP / Doc. zn. 29832 Federal Way Community Center Page 2 1 9. Parking requirements for the proposed use are determined on a case -by -case basis per FWCC Section 22-833. The applicant is proposing 242 parking stalls for the 78,500 square foot facility. (Approximately one stall per 324 gross square feet of floor area.) The parking requirements were determined by a study of existing, similar community center facilities that was prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest and submitted to the City on July 16, 2004,as part of the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) report. This report identified 239 parking stalls are required for the proposed facility. The City's public works traffic division reviewed and concurred with the proposed parking stall count for the project. 10. Landscaping proposed for the perimeter and interior parking lot landscape areas generally meets the intent of the FWCC. For the 242 parking stalls provided, a minimum of 5,324 square feet of interior parking lot landscaping is required (242 stalls x 22 square feet of landscaping per stall). The landscape plans indicate 6,738 square feet of interior parking lot landscaping is provided. Of the landscaping provided, 5,876 square feet is allowable toward the required amount, and exceeds the minimum interior parking lot landscaping requirement. Proposed trash enclosures are screened with 100 percent sight obscuring wood fencing along with landscaping. Blank walls located along the three elevations at the northwestern end of the building (gymnasium wing) are to be screened with Iandscaping. Large shrubs will need to be added to the proposed trees to adequately screen these blank walls. Additional information is required on the landscape plans to show how the east side of the gymnasium will be screened (this facade abuts a fire access drive). Parking lot perimeter landscaping is proposed along the northeast side of the extension of South 333`d Street. This perimeter landscaping area must meet the parking lot screening requirements of FWCC Section 22-1567(e). Ten feet of Type III perimeter landscaping is proposed along the western property line and the southern property line until the point where it meets up with the new access road. Interior parking lot landscaping shall be provided at the ends of all parking rows. End -of -row landscaping is required at the end of the parking row adjacent to the proposed transformer pad located at the northwest corner of the proposed community center. In addition, end -of -row landscaping is required at the ends of parking rows that front on the building sidewalk area unless a modification is allowed for the provision of pedestrian facilities, transit stops, and/or handicapped access and the intent of Article XVII - Landscaping is met. Final landscape plans will be reviewed -with construction permits to ensure compliance with the FWCC. 11. The Celebration Park site contains 600 significant trees according to submitted landscape plans dated and received September 22, 2004. According to said landscape plans, approximately 150 significant trees will be removed for the construction of the community center and associated site and right-of- way improvements. This represents 25 percent of the existing significant trees on the subject site. According to FWCC Section 22-1568, no more than 75 percent of existing significant trees may be removed without replacement. As the number of trees proposed for removal is less than 75 percent of the existing significant trees, no tree replacement is required for the significant trees that are to be removed. 12. Any future development of the Celebration Park site that necessitates the removal of significant trees shall be assessed against the 600 significant trees that exist at the time of this application, and shall also take into consideration the removal of 150 significant trees related to this project. At such time in the future that additional significant trees are proposed to be removed. and said significant trees, in addition to the 150 trees that are proposed to be removed for this project, exceeds 75 percent of the 600 existing significant trees on site, then tree replacement shall be required per FWCC Section 22- 1568. Findings for Project Approval Federal Way Community Center 04-102807-UP / Doc. LD- 29832 Page 3 13. Site design is generally consistent with FWCC Article XIX, Community Design Guidelines, based on provision of the following key design elements: (a) the new community center building is oriented to the extension of South 333`d Street which will provide visibility of the major building entrances from the adjacent right-of-way; (b) pedestrian areas have been incorporated into the overall design of the project: pedestrian plazas are provided at the main building entrance, on the north side of the building off of the leisure pool area and classroom areas, and at the southeastern end of the building off of the multi -purpose room; (c) pedestrian pathways are provided from the adjacent right-of-way to the main building entrance on the south/west side of the building and a pedestrian path is also provided through the center of the main parking lot area. These paths are proposed to be separate paved routes. Site amenities including benches, waste receptacles, and bicycle racks must also be provided for the community center. These items will be reviewed with construction permits. 14. Architectural design is generally consistent with FWCC Article XIX, Community Design Guidelines, based on provision of the following key design elements: (a) use of material variations i.e., smooth cement board panels in two tones along with split face CMU in two colors with repeating bands of smooth CMU accent colors; horizontal aluminum siding for portions of the gymnasium; vertical aluminum siding along curved walls on the taller portions of the structure; and black brake metal framing utilized as cornice banding and vertically at downspout locations; (b) use of building colors in the earth tone ranges, with tan, red/brown, and gray building walls, accented with aluminum siding and black metal trim; (c) facade modulation of the southwest (main entry) facade utilizes all four of the possible modulation methods: facade modulation — including angled and off -set planes, canopies at main building entrances, landscape screening; and pedestrian plazas provide required treatment to this building facade that is visible from the right-of-way; (d) the main building entrance is emphasized with a large pedestrian plaza and canopy incorporating building signage over the entry doors; (e) facade articulation methods include multiple window openings, landscaping, overhangs, cornices, canopies, material variation, and public plazas. In addition, public art is proposed to be incorporated with the project and will be submitted for review as part of the construction permit application. 15. As conditioned, the proposed site plan application and application attachments have been determined to be consistent with the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan, consistent with all applicable provisions of this chapter, and 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 for access. The proposed development is consistent with Process III, Project Approval, decisional criteria required under FWCC Section 22-395(b). The proposed site plan and application attachments have been reviewed for compliance with the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan, pertinent zoning regulations, and all other applicable City regulations. Final construction drawings will be reviewed for compliance with specific regulations, conditions of.approval, and other applicable City requirements. This decision shall not waive compliance with future City of Federal Way codes, policies, and standards relating to this development.

Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 Dear Ms. Dower, I have recently reviewed the access issues with the proposed Federal Way Community Center, located at 33190 9 Ave So. The access from So 333 St. near 9 Ave So. to the SW corner of the building does not meet our turning access requirements. The 2003 International Fire Code states in 503.2.4; "The required turning radius of a fire apparatus access road shall be determined by the fire code official." For the purposes of this section we require the radius to be not less than a 20 foot inside turning radius and not less than a 40 foot outside turning radius. The access in the southwest corner does not meet this requirement. As an alternative I'd suggest shortening the planter and removing one or.two parking places to allow the corner to meet this turning radius requirement. If this determination creates a severe hardship on the city, I'd be willing to discuss other alternatives with you or your staff. Please let me know how you'd like to proceed with this.

While I am enclosing marked up plans along with this letter, I am also available to meet with you and/or your representatives to go over these comments if you would like. Impervious Surface Calculation The submitted plans (sheet A100) indicate that there will be 6.4 acres of impervious surface for the proposed project. This same figure was provided for the preliminary design. As the size of the proposed building and parking lot has decreased in size, please verify if this number is correct and modify the drawings as necessary. Landscaping (Landscape Plan) The following issues need to be addressed with the proposed landscaping plan: Perimeter Landscaping - Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1566(h)(1), perimeter landscaping (Type III, ten feet wide) is required along the west and south sides of the new public right-of-way. This site has unique characteristics in that the western perimeter will remain largely and isturbed with mature vegetation that meets or exceeds the intent of the perimeter landscape screening requirements. However, as portions of this area will be disturbed with the construction of the new public roadway (South 333`d Street), these areas will have to be repaired and re -planted as necessary to provide for adequate perimeter landscape screening adjacent to the new roadway. See redlined plans (sheets L3.0 and 3.1) for identified areas to repair and replant as needed. Along the southern perimeter lot line, the construction of South 333`d Street will also result in some grading activity on the adjacent property to the south and likely disturbance of existing perimeter landscaping on that property. This existing landscaping on the neighboring property must be repaired and replaced as necessary to achieve the required 10-foot wide Type III perimeter landscape buffer. Parking Lot Perimeter Landscape Screening - Shrub plantings for the perimeter parking lot landscape screening areas adjacent to the public right-of-way must provide for screening that meets the intent of FWCC Section 22-1567(e)(1). Since no berms are proposed for the parking lot landscape rr� Sh Ms. Sanders March 8, 2005 Page 2 screening area, substantial plantings must provide for a screening effect that is equivalent to a planted three foot -high berm. A review of the proposed plant materials for the perimeter parking lot areas indicates that many of the proposed shrubs are too small to provide for an effective screening of the parkinZD g lot. Larger shrubs — minimum 24" high at time of planting, should be provided in these locations. See redlined plans L3.0 and L3.1. One of the proposed species, (Mahonia Aquifolium `compacta'), is not known to grow to more than two to three feet in height. See redlined plans for locations where this shrub is proposed and an alternate shrub species is recommended to provide adequate screening (or alternatively the proposed Mahonia could be combined with a shrub with a larger mature height to result in adequate screening). Interior Parking Lot Landscaping - Most of the parking rows indicate planting islands at both ends as required by FWCC Section 22-1567(c)(1). The landscape plan must be revised to add landscape islands at the ends of all parking rows as indicated on the enclosed redlined plans (sheets L1.0, L1.1, L3.0, and U.1). These islands need to be a minimurn of 64 square feet and maximum of 305 square feet, and contain Type IV landscaping. Type IV landscaping is described in FWCC Section 22-1565(d)(2). Please note that one tree per landscape island is required for islands up to 150 square feet. One additional tree is required for those up to 305 square feet. Please refer to redlined landscape plan for islands where additional trees are required (sheets L3.0 and U.1). Total Required Interior Parking Lot Landscaping - The landscape plans must identify how the proposed interior parking lot landscaping meet the requirement of a minimum of 22 square feet per stall as required pursuant to 22-1567(b)(1). Please indicate how this requirement is being met for the revised plans submitted for the building permit application. Provide dimensions and calculation for the interior parking lot landscaping. Lawn Areas - Pursuant to FWCC Section 22-1564(k)(2), lawn areas shall be a minimum of five feet wide at the smallest dimension. Please see redlined plans (sheets L3.0 and L3.1) where a section of the proposed lawn area does not meet minimum width requirement. This area should be planted with ground cover/small shrubs as an extension of the adjacent planted areas. Blank Wall Screening - Landscaping that is proposed to screen blank walls should provide for larger shrubs than those proposed in the landscape plans. These shrubs should meet the definition of a large shrub per FWCC Section 22-1564(i)(3) which is a minimum of 24" in height at time of planting. See redlined plans for areas where shrubs should be a larger size. The east wall of the gymnasium meets the definition of a blank wall per FWCC Section 22-1564(u) and therefore must have landscaping to screen this blank wall. See redlined sheet L3.0. The wall area adjacent to the community wing entry exceeds 240 square feet and should have some landscape screening. In this location, a planter at the base of the wall with tall shrubs or trellised climbing shrub or vine is recommended.

JA N i 2 CITY OF FEDERAL WAY ; OFFICE OF THE HEARING EXAMINED ------- IN THE MATTER OF FWHE# 04-13 Federal Way Community Center ) FW# 04-102809-UP Process IV Request ) Related File #04-102808-00-SE Environmentally Sensitive Area Intrusion ) SUMMARY OF APPLICATION A proposed wetland buffer intrusion and mitigation plan is the subject of the Process IV Review, Hearing Examiner's Decision. The applicant is proposing to -displace 1.7 acres of buffer area associated with a Category I wetland and to provide 3.5 acres of compensatory buffer area to be permanently set aside as a Native Growth Protection Easement. II. PROCEDURAL INFORMATION Hearing Date: December 28, 2004 Decision Date- January 12, 2005 At the hearing the following presented testimony and evidence: 1- Janet Schull, City of Federal Way, Contract Planner 2. H. David Kaplan, 30240 — 27th Avenue South, Federal Way, WA 98003 At the hearing the following exhibits were admitted as part of the official record of these proceedings: 1 Staff Report with all attachments 2. Power Point Presentation (Hard Copy) III. FINDINGS 1- The Hearing Examiner has heard testimony, admitted documentary evidence into the record, viewed the site and taken this matter under advisement. 2 2. The Community Development Staff Report sets forth general findings, applicable policies and provisions in this matter and is hereby marked as Exhibit "1" with attachments and hereby incorporated in its entirety by this reference. 3. All appropriate notices were delivered in accordance with the requirements of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC). 4. The applicant is proposing to construct a 78,500 square foot community center, associated parking and landscaping, along with on site surface water drainage facilities. The proposed site location is a 10 acre portion of the 83 acre Celebration Park Site located at 33190 — 9th Avenue South in Federal Way. The 83 acre Celebration Park Site is currently developed on the eastern side with sport and play fields and parking areas. The western side, where this proposed community center will be located, is undeveloped and largely forested. 5. The proposed community center would include a gymnasium, fitness center, swimming pool, locker rooms, kitchen, cafe, and meeting/multi purpose rooms. Access to the center would be via an extension of South 333' Street eastward through the site to 91h Avenue South. The site is relatively flat and does contain wetland buffer areas. 6. The project site has a present zoning designation of Office Park (OP) and a comprehensive plan designation of Parks and Open Space. This proposed use would be allowed outright in this zone designation. The reason why this application is before the Examiner is because the proposed site is part of an environmentally sensitive area and the applicant is requesting to intrude into the outer 100 feet of a 200 foot wetland buffer associated with a Category I Wetland. The total buffer area to be displaced would be 1.7 acres. There is a proposed 3.5 acre compensatory wetland buffer area located adjacent to the current wetland buffer area that is being displaced. The applicant is required to go through a Process IV Review because of the proposed intrusion into a wetland buffer that is associated with a Category I Wetland. 7. Federal Way City Code (FWCC) Section 22-1359(f) outlines the criteria that must be satisfied before structures, improvements, and land surface modifications are allowed within regulated wetland buffers. Findings on each criteria are hereby made as follows: 1. It will not adversely effect water quality. 3 The applicant is only proposing to intrude 100 feet into the 200 foot buffer. The remaining buffer area is densely vegetated and will continue to be high value. It is anticipated that the remaining 100 foot buffer will adequately provide for and protect water quality, thus the intrusion will not adversely effect water quality. 2. It will not adversely effect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat. Clearly there will be some effect on the quality of the buffer's wildlife habitat. The applicant is proposing a compensatory wetland buffer location that is adjacent to this location. The compensatory buffer will be double the size of the displaced buffer. It is also densely vegetated. Therefore, it will have the same value to habitat as the displaced buffer. There will be a net increase in the overall level and quality of the buffer area. 3. It will not adversely effect drainage or storm water retention capabilities. As stated above, there still will remain 100 feet of the 200 foot buffer. The remaining buffer area will adequately provide for drainage and storm water retention. The proposed development will have its own storm water detention systems that will ensure that no increased runoff goes into the buffer as a result of the development. 4. It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards. The topography of the site is relatively flat. All city codes will have to be satisfied when developing the property, therefore, there does not appear to be any problems with creating erosion hazards. 5. It will not be materially detrimental to any other property in the area nor to the city as a whole, including loss of open space. The remaining wetland buffer is of high quality. The overall wetland buffer area will be doubled. These areas will be permanently preserved. The overall effect will be an improvement. 8. FWCC Section 22-1359(f) also specifies that the intrusion into a buffer may not be by more than 50% of the buffer, and in no case shall the remaining buffer be 4 less than 25 feet. The applicant will not be intruding into more that 50% of the buffer and there is more than 25 feet of the buffer remaining. 9. The applicant must also show that the proposal satisfies the general requirements of a Process IV Review as stated in FWCC Section 22-445(c). Findings on each criteria are hereby made as follows: 1. It is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The proposal will have an overall benefit to the general public. It will provide a community center. The testimony presented indicated a need for this type of community center in the city. Though there will be development within the wetland buffer, the compensatory area, which is double in size, will offset any impacts of this intrusion. Therefore, the proposal does satisfy the comprehensive plan. 2. It is consistent with all applicable provisions of this chapter and all other applicable laws. As stated above, the applicant does satisfy the criteria for modifications and intrusions into environmentally sensitive areas. This site is currently zoned Office Park which would allow this type of use. SEPA review has indicated that a Mitigated Determination of Non -Significance is appropriate. Therefore, this proposal is consistent with all applicable laws. 3. It is consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. The proposal will be a net overall gain for the community. There will be increased permanent wetland buffer areas along with a public community center that can be used by the public at large. 4. The streets and utilifies in the area of the subject property are adequate to serve the anticipated demand for the proposal. This criteria is satisfied. 5. The proposed access to the subject property is at the optimal location and configuration for access. 5 The only intrusion into the wetland buffer area for streets or roads is for emergency access. All other access will be provided outside of the wetland buffer area. IV. CONCLUSIONS From the foregoing findings the Hearing Examiner makes the following conclusions: 1. The Hearing Examiner has jurisdiction to consider and decide the issues presented by this request. 2. The applicant has shown that the request to intrude 100 feet into 200 foot wetland buffer associated with a Category I wetland so that a community center can be constructed satisfies the criteria set forth in FWCC Section 22-1359(f) and the Process IV Review criteria, therefore, the request is granted subject to the following conditions: 1. As required by the Director of Community Development Services, prior to occupancy of any buildings on the site, the applicant shall permanently set aside the 3.5-acre compensatory buffer area as a Native Growth Protection Easement. The boundaries of the easement area shall be surveyed and shall reflect the expanded buffers shown in the final approved Mitigation Plan, prepared in accordance with Condition #2 below. The applicant shall submit the appropriate documents for the City's review and approval and the documents shall be recorded as directed by the City. 2. The applicant shall submit a final Mitigation Plan, for the City's review that addresses the issues identified in an August 26, 2004, letter, from Lizzie Zemke of Adolfson Associates, Inc., (Exhibit 1). Said final Mitigation Plan shall be approved by the Director of Community Development prior to the issuance of any construction permits. 3. Buffer boundaries established by the approved final Mitigation Plan, prepared in accordance with Condition #2 above, shall be reflected on all applicable construction drawings and permits. 4. As required by the Director of Community Development Services, prior to issuance of a construction permit, the applicant shall submit for the City's review and approval a plan to limit access to the wetland buffer area and 6 associated wetland that utilizes methods such as fencing, landscaping/plantings, and informational signage in accordance with Condition #5 below. 5. As required by the Director of Community Development Services; prior to issuance of a construction permit, the applicant shall submit for the City's review and approval a plan to provide signage on the site, identifying environmentally sensitive areas and limiting human and pen access into such areas. The plan shall include the number, location, and design details, including text, for the proposed signs. DECISION: The request to intrude 100 feet into a 200 foot wetland buffer, therefore, displacing 1.7 acres of wetland buffer, and, in return providing 3.5 acres of comparable compensatory buffer area, so that a community center can be built, is hereby granted subject to the conditions contained above.

Proponent: Ms. Betty Sanders City of Federal Way PARCS Department PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 Phone: 253-835-6912 Location: 33190 9th Avenue South, Federal Way, WA Lead Agency: City of Federal Way City Contact: Janet Shull, AICP, Contract Planner, 206-244-3749 The Responsible Official of the City of Federal Way hereby makes the following Findings of Fact based upon impacts identified in the Environmental Checklist; the Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, Federal Way File No. 04-102808-SE; Conclusions of Law based upon the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan; and other policies, plans, rules, and regulations designated as a basis for exercise of substantive authority under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act Rules pursuant to RCW 43.21C.060. Findings of Fact: 1. The proposed action includes construction of a 78,500 square -foot community center. The project site is located within Celebration Park, generally located at the intersection of 9`" Avenue South and the extension of South 333rd Street. The proposal also includes utility extension, storm drainage improvements, and on -site parking and landscaping. �I f 2. The subject property is zoned Office Park (OP). The comprehensive plan designation for the site is Park and Open Space. 3. In accordance with code requirements, traffic impacts associated with the proposed action were analyzed and mitigation proposed in the applicant's Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) (prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest, received July 16, 2004, with revisions received September 22, 2004), and reviewed by the City's Public Works Traffic Department. Traffic impacts identified in the analysis will be appropriately mitigated by implementation of required mitigation measures. 4. According to the TIA, new trips generated by the proposed development would impact 17 Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) projects in which the proposed development exceeds the net 10 PM peak hour threshold for requiring mitigation. In lieu of construction of these improvements, prior to issuance of the building permit, the applicant may pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 toward the impacted TIP projects. The Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, File No. 04-102808-SE, is hereby incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. Conclusions of Law: The goals and policies of the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan serve as a basis for requiring SEPA conditions. TG2 Provide a safe, efficient, convenient, and financially sustainable transportation system with sufficient capacity to move people, goods, and services at an acceptable level of service. The City shall develop and adopt policies for the construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and preservation of new and existingfacilities. TG3 Extend the functional life of the existing transportation system and increase its safe, efficient operational through application of TSMstrategies. TP16 The City's LOS standard shall be E. This is defined herein as a volume/capacity ratio less than 1.00 in accordance with Highway Capacity Manual (2000) operational analysis procedures. At signalized intersections, the analysis shall be conducted using a 120-second cycle length and level of service E is defined as less than 80 seconds of delay per vehicle. Where transit or HOV facilities are provided, the LOS shall be measured by average delay and volume/capacity ratio per person rather than per vehicle. This standard shall be -used to identify concurrency needs and mitigation of development impacts. For long-range transportation planning and concurrency analysis, a volume/capacity ratio of 0.90 or greater will be used to identify locations for the more detailed operational analysis. TP17 Expand arterial capacity by constructing channelization improvements at intersections when they are an alternative to creating new lanes along a roadway corridor. TP24 Consider safety first in the design of intersection improvements. TP25 Allow improvements to traffic flow only where they contribute to traffic and pedestrian safety, high capacity transit and HOV system enhancements, and reduce air pollution. Federal Way Community Center 04-102808 / [xc. M 29477 Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance Page 2 TP29 Reduce reliance on the single occupant auto by prioritizing and implementing supportive local -level transit, HOV, and non -motorized improvements. TP 30 Identify and plan for multi -modal freeway, arterial, and collector street improvements which ensure more efficient use of existing roads and enhancement of HOV, transit, and related non - motorized operations. TP3 8 Include sufficient area in rights -of -way for bike lanes, sidewalks, and landscaped medians to provide separation from motorized traffic as funds allow. Use landscaped medians to separate opposing traffic when safety and aesthetic purposes dictate the need. TP42 Arterial HOV improvements will be constructed along key corridors to improve flow and encourage use of these more efficient modes. TP47 Access Management, placing restrictions on left turns across major arterial streets, will be used to reduce crash rates and extend capacity of major arterials. The lead agency for this proposal has determined that the proposed action does not have probable significant adverse impact on the environment, and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.032(2)(c), only if the following conditions are met. This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency. This information is available to the public on request. Condition of Approval/Mitigation Measures: Based on the above policies, the following mitigation measures are required to minimize identified potential significant adverse impacts. In order to mitigate for potential adverse transportation impacts resulting from the construction of the project, the TIP improvements listed in the table below must be constructed by the applicant prior to issuance of any construction permits for the community center. In lieu of constructing these TIP projects, the applicant may voluntarily offer to pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 towards the following (TIP) projects based on the calculation below. Pro-rata Share Contribution to Transportation Improvement Projects Pro-rata share contribution is required using the following formula: Pro-rata share percentage = project PM peak hour trips/future with project PM peak hour volume x 100. Pro-rata share amount = pro-rata share percentage x estimated TIP project cost / 100. The pro-rata share percentage is calculated using PM peak hour volumes and was determined by the traffic impact analysis. The pro-rata share amount is shown in the table below.

GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SITE AND VICINITY The 83-acre project site is currently developed on the eastern side with sport and playfields and parking areas. The western side of the project site is undeveloped and largely forested. Existing land uses in the vicinity include a mix of office and commercial to the south, west, and east. The BPA power lines are located northwest of the proposed building site with a mixture of single- family and multiple -family residential development to the northeast of the BPA easement. Federal Way Community Center Process IV Request File No. 04-102809 / no.. I.D. 29928 Staff Report to Federal Way Hearing Examiner Page 3 The site contains environmentally sensitive areas, including an integrated wetland -stream system, and associated setbacks, which are regulated by the FWCC. The buffer associated with Wetland "D" that is part of this system is the subject of the Process IV request. Wetland "D" and associated wetland areas are depicted within the applicant's Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report (Exhibit G) and described in Section VII, below. Discussions of the site characteristics, including on site environmentally sensitive areas, are also contained in the applicant's Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report (Exhibit G). Hydrologically, the Celebration Park site lies within the West Sub -basin of the Hylebos Creek Drainage Basin. Topographically, the proposed building site is generally flat to moderately sloping, with slopes generally trending down from the central portion of the building site to the northeast, southwest, and southeast. Elevations range from a high point of approximately 394 feet elevation at the center of the proposed community center to approximately 380 feet elevation along the south and west boundaries; and 360 feet at the southeast corner of the building site. The site slopes downward from the proposed building area in a northeasterly direction toward Wetland "D". Site soils are mapped as Everett- Alderwood gravelly sandy loam. VII. DESCRIPTION OF ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS Environmentally sensitive areas on the site are described below. It should be noted that environmentally sensitive areas are also located beyond the building site, including a system of interconnected streams and wetlands running generally north to south through the site. However, these are outside of project limits and will not be impacted by the project. A description and functional assessment of environmentally sensitive areas is also included in the applicant's "Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center" (Exhibit G). The applicant's report was reviewed by City staff and the City's consulting Wetland Ecologist, Adolfson Associates, Inc., and used as a basis for the Process IV staff analysis recommended conditions of approval. (1) Wetland "D" No intrusions into Wetland "D" are requested or required. A description of Wetland "D" follows: Wetland "D" is located northeast of the community center development site and comprises approximately 1.16 acres. This wetland was classified by Adolfson Associates, Inc. as a "Category I" wetland due to the presence of mature forest.' The City reviewed and concurred with the applicant's classification of Wetland "D" as a Category I wetland. According to FWCC Section 22-1537(b), Category I wetlands are required to be protected by a 200-foot buffer. Wetland "D" is a palustrine-forested wetland with a seasonal open water component located in a bowl -shaped, flow through depression. Wetland "D" is part of a stream/wetland complex that runs north/south across the western portion of the Celebration Park site. Dominant vegetation within the wetland include black cottonwood, willow, and Douglas spiraea. Other shrub species include red -osier dogwood and salmonberry. I Page i, paragraph 5, Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report (Fxhibit G) Federal Way Community Center Process IV Request File No. 04-102809 / Doc I D 29928 Staff Report to Federal Way Hearing Examiner Page 4 According to the Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report prepared by Adolfson Associates (Exhibit G), Wetland "D" was evaluated as part of an overall system of interconnected wetlands and received rankings of moderate to high in terms of water -related functions and habitat -related functions. The forested cover and diverse vegetation structure contribute to the moderate to high rankings. (2) Wetland "D" Buffer The buffer surrounding Wetland "D" is densely vegetated forest, especially along the western and northern sides of the wetland. (3) Wildlife Habitat Asyociated with Wetland `D" According to a July 8, 2004 letter, from Adolfson Associates, Inc. (Exhibit F), Celebration Park does not support any endangered, threatened, or sensitive species. Detailed information regarding wildlife observations is contained in the Report prepared by Adolfson Associates Inc, (Exhibit G). VIII. DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE OF PROCESS IV REQUESTS This section explains the nature and purpose of the request to construct improvements within the buffer from a regulated wetland. Table IX and Section X, below, analyze the requests under the applicable decision criteria of FWCC Chapter 22, Article XIV. (1) Description of Request The request is to allow for the intrusion into the outer 100 feet of the required 200-foot buffer associated with Wetland "D" located northeast of the proposed community center. The proposed area of buffer intrusion is 1.7 acres. The applicant is proposing to mitigate the loss of the wildlife habitat function of the 1.7 acres of buffer area by permanently setting aside 3.5 acres of mature forested area in a Native Growth Protection Easement. (2) Purpose of Request The purpose of the request is to facilitate the construction of the community center building and associated site improvements within Celebration Park at the southwest corner of the park site. IX. ANALYSIS OF REQUESTS AND DECISIONAL CRITERIA AT FWCC CHAPTER 22, ARTICLE XIV, "ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS" The table below analyzes the request to locate improvements within the buffer from a regulated wetland pursuant to the applicable decisional criteria. The decisional criteria that pertain to the proposed development within the required buffer area are contained in FWCC Section 22-1539(f) "Structures, improvements, and land surface modifications within regulated wetland buffers — Modification." The applicant's responses to the decisional criteria are contained in the "Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan" (Exhibit H, pages 2-3). In addition to the decisional criteria analyzed in the following table, FWCC Section 22-1359(f) specifies that any modification shall not reduce the standard buffer by more than 50 percent, and in no case shall the remaining buffer be less than 25 feet. The proposed buffer intrusion is within the outer 100 feet of the required 200-foot buffer. Therefore, the proposed remainder buffer area width is never less than 50 percent of the required width and is also always greater than 25 feet wide.

ANALYSIS OF REQUEST AND "ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREAS" DECISIONAL CRITERIA FWCC CHAPTER 22, ARTICLE Request: Displace a 1.7-acre portion of the 200-foot buffer associated with Wetland "D" Decisional Criteria Staff Analysis "It will not adversely The applicant's Conceptual Mitigation Plan (Exhibit H) states that the proposed affect water quality." wetland buffer intrusion would not adversely affect water quality because the (Criterion #1, § 22- remaining 100-foot buffer is densely vegetated and will continue to function at a 1359[f].2) high level to provide water quality improvement for runoff before it enters the wetland. No intrusion into Wetland "D" is proposed or required. "It will not adversely The intrusion into the required buffer area would affect the existing quality and affect the existing quality amount of the wetland buffer wildlife habitat through the reduction of the buffer. A of the wetland's or conceptual mitigation plan was prepared to address unavoidable impacts to the buffer's wildlife habitat." wetland buffer. The mitigation plan proposes to offset the loss of wetland buffer on (Criterion #2, § 22- the south side of the wetland through the addition of double the amount of wetland 1359[f].) buffer in an undeveloped portion of the park, located north of the proposed community center and contiguous with a portion of the remaining 200-foot buffer. "It will not adversely The proposed intrusion into the buffer area would not adversely impact water affect drainage or quality, drainage, or stormwater retention because the remaining 100-foot buffer is stormwater retention densely vegetated and will continue to function at a high level to provide water capabilities." (Criterion quality improvement for runoff before it enters the wetland. In addition, on -site #3, § 22-1359[f].) stormwater runoff from the portion of the site that now drains toward Wetland "D" is roughly equivalent to the area of the proposed building roof that will drain to a proposed detention vault at the northeast corner of the site and then outflow to an area northwest of the building within a remaining portion of the Wetland "D" buffer. Construction of the proposed facility in accordance with final storm drainage, grading, and erosion control plans, subject to City review and approval, will ensure no adverse impact to drainage or stormwater retention capabilities. No displacement of wetland- area or stormwater retention will occur. "It will not lead to The project will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards as unstable earth conditions the existing wetland buffer is not vulnerable to erosion hazards, does not occur on a nor create erosion steep or unstable slope and is well vegetated.

Decisional criteria and staff comments are provided below. 2 FWCC Section 22-1359, Structures, improvements, and land surface modifications within regulated wetland buffers, (f) Modification, Criteria 1-5. Federal Way Community Center Process IV Request File No. 04-102809 / D.,_ tn. 29928 Staff Report to Federal Way Hearing Examiner Page 6 (1) It is consistent with the comprehensive plan. Staff Comment: The comprehensive plan is used, among other documents, as a basis for implementing regulations such as zoning and the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). The larger proposal, of which the Process IV request is a component, has undergone SEPA review, and must comply with the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan (FWCP). The Process IV request was reviewed and determined to be consistent with the following key goals and policies contained in FWCP, Natural Environment, Wetlands: "Protect and enhance the functions and values of the City's wetlands." (Goal NEG7, FWCP) "The City will protect its wetlands with an objective of no overall net -loss of functions or values." (Policy NEP43, FWCP) "Mitigation sites should replace or augment the wetland values to be lost as a result of a development proposal. Sites should be chosen that would contribute to an existing wetland system, or, if feasible, restore an area that was historically a wetland." (Policy NEP49, FWCP) "The City will protect wetlands by maximizing infiltration opportunities and promoting the conservation of forest cover and native vegetation." (Policy NEP51, FWCP) (2) It is consistent with all applicable provisions of this chapter and all other applicable laws. Staff Comment: The Process IV request has been reviewed under SEPA; the FWCP; all applicable provisions of FWCC Chapter 22, "Zoning"; all applicable decision criteria pursuant to FWCC Chapter 22, Article XIV, "Environmentally Sensitive Areas"; FWCC Chapter 22, Article VII, "Process IV Review -Hearing Examiner's Decision"; and is consistent with all applicable provisions and laws, provided all recommended conditions of approval are met. (3) It is consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare. Staff Comment: The Process IV request has been reviewed under SEPA; the FWCP; all applicable provisions of FWCC Chapter 22, "Zoning"; all applicable decision criteria pursuant to FWCC Chapter 22, Article XIV, "Environmentally Sensitive Areas"; FWCC Chapter 22, Article VII, "Process IV Review -Hearing Examiner's Decision"; and is consistent with all applicable provisions and laws, provided all recommended conditions of approval are met. (4) The streets and utilities in the area of the subject property are adequate to serve the anticipated demand from the proposal. Staff Comment: The Process IV request does not by itself generate demand on adjacent streets and utilities. However, the Process IV request will facilitate emergency vehicle access and provision of storm drainage facilities, as required by the FWCC and FWCP, and as analyzed in the City's SEPA review for the overall project. Further, as conditioned by the City of Federal Way MDNS for the project, unavoidable adverse impacts to the overall roadway network will be adequately mitigated. (5) The proposed access to the subject property is at the optimal location and configuration for access. Federal Way Community Center Process IV Request File No. 04-102809 / no., in. 29928 Staff Report to Federal Way Hearing Examiner Page 7 Staff Comment: As it relates to the Process IV request, the proposed access and configuration is at the optimal location by not intruding into any environmentally sensitive areas for purposes of roads or driveways, except where emergency vehicle access to the building is required by the Federal Way Fire Department. XI. FINDINGS FOR PROCESS IV APPROVAL Based on an analysis of the Process IV application, the environmental record, and applicable decisional criteria, the Department of Community Development Services finds that: The applicant is requesting an intrusion into an environmentally sensitive area (Category I wetland buffer area) located on the site, in order to: facilitate development of a community center facility on the site; construct emergency vehicle access to the northeast side of the building; and provide on -site storm drainage facilities. 2. The requested wetland buffer intrusion would result in the displacement of an existing Category I wetland buffer area in the amount of 1.7 acres. 3. Pursuant to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), the City issued a Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance for the project on November 6, 2004. The City's Responsible SEPA Official reviewed the environmental checklist and Process IV request and determined that application of all City of Federal Way codes, policies, and regulations, and conditions of approval as recommended, will adequately address any environmental impacts related to the Process IV request. 4. The portion of the buffer area that would be displaced is a mature forested area that provides a wildlife habitat function that would be impacted through the reduction of habitat area. The wetland buffer compensatory area of 3.5 acres, as proposed in the Conceptual Mitigation Plan (Exhihit I), will replace at a 2:1 ratio the displaced buffer area. The area proposed for compensatory mitigation is a mature forested area of similar function and value to the area being displaced, and is contiguous to the remaining buffer area associated with Wetland "D". As proposed in the Conceptual Mitigation Plan, this area shall be protected from potential future development through its designation as a Native Growth Protection Easement. The application was reviewed and found to meet all applicable FWCC decisional criteria, including § 22-1359(fl, and Process IV decisional criteria of FWCC § 22-445(c), provided all recommended conditions of Process IV approval are met. The analysis contained in Table IX and Section X of this report is incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. Reports, plans, and letters submitted by the applicant for the Process IV request and reviewed by the City include: Letter from Linda Krippner, Adolfson Associates, Inc., July 6, 2004; Letter from Ilon Logan, Adolfson Associates, Inc., July 8, 2004; Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center, from Adolfson Associates, Inc., July 15, 2004; and Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan, from Adolfson Associates, Inc., July, 2004. The aforementioned reports, plans, and letters are incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. Implementation of a final approved Mitigation Plan and all recommended conditions of project approval, and the City's review and approval of final construction drawings pursuant to all applicable codes and development regulations, will ensure that the project results in no adverse Federal Way Community Center Process IV Request File No. 04-102809 / nog.

Items marked '1' on the plan indicate facade modulation in excess of the prescribed minimum of two feet. - Modulation occurs where building elements are juxtaposed, or project from the main mass. While the modulations occur irregularly, they are mostly within 60'-0" horizontal intervals, except for the gymnasium facade, which is 89'- 0" long (see item 2 below). 2. Items marked '2' on the plan indicate landscape screening_ areas. The several areas noted all are in excess of 8'-0" in width. Notably the area in front of the Gymnasium is planted with four large evergreens and several deciduous trees and may be considered to be Type I landscaping; landscaping in other areas utilizes lawn, ground Gavcr planting and deciduous trees. 3. Items marked 'T on the plan indicate canopies and arcades. The primary building canopy occurs at the building entry, a two-story glass element at the middle of the building. The glazing above the canopy is the planned location for the primary interior art installation. Two arcades occur to either side of the entry: on the west side, the roof extends T-0" beyond the facade and serves as a protective enclosure for individuals waiting for rides; to the east, the roof extends T-4" to provide a covered area at the walled outdoor play area adjacent to children's classrooms. 4. Items marked A' on the plan indicate pedestrian plazas. The building entry is the focus of both the building and parking lot and is the site of the curbside drop-off and location of the exterior art element and water feature. The drop-off is circumscribed by a ring of paving evocative of a water ripple that creates a pedestrian realm that vehicles pass through. This includes several planting areas interspersed with natural rocks. In front of the building entry a second paving treatment is adjacent to the artist -designed water feature, both circular in plan. The area of this plaza is easily 10,000 SF or between 1/6 and 1/7 of the gross building area. Two smaller paved plazas occur adjacent to the gym and at the Community Wing entry. The gym plaza is intended as a building entry for after- hours athletic events when the main entry is closed; the Community Wing entry is provided as the primary access for non -athletic events and classes. 5. At the area marked '5' on the plan, we request a modification to landscaping required adjacent to parking. This area is immediately adjacent to the Community Wing entry, and although accessible parking is located across the drive, it is anticipated that Seniors and visitors with impaired mobility will take advantage of the parking next to the doorway. Landscaping this area would represent an obstacle for these individuals to traverse. 2300 fifteenth Street, Suite 100 Denver, Colorado 80202 303-455-1366 fax 303.455.7457 www,brsarcii.com Documentl 4ik CITY Federalo.

Associated site improvements include development of a parking lot, landscaping, right-of-way and utility extension, and storm drainage improvements. Approximately 3.5 acres of conifer forest will be designated an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Proponent: Ms. Betty Sanders City of Federal Way PARCS Department PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 Phone:253-835-6912 Location: 33190 91h Avenue South, Federal Way, WA Lead Agency: City of Federal Way City Contact: Janet Shull, AICP, Contract Planner, 206-244-3749 The Responsible Official of the City of Federal Way hereby makes the following Findings of Fact based upon impacts identified in the Environmental Checklist; the Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, Federal Way File No. 04-102808-SE; Conclusions of Law based upon the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan; and other policies, plans, rules, and regulations designated as a basis for exercise of substantive authority under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act -Rules pursuant to RCW 43.21 C.060. Findings of Fact: The proposed action includes construction of a 78,500 square -foot community center. The project site is Iocated within Celebration Park, generally located at the intersection of 9`h Avenue South and the extension of South 333`d Street. The proposal also includes utility extension, storm drainage improvements, and on -site parking and landscaping. 2. The subject property is zoned Office Park (OP). The comprehensive plan designation for the site is Park and Open Space. In accordance with code requirements, traffic impacts associated with the proposed action were analyzed and mitigation proposed in the applicant's Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) (prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest, received July 16, 2004, with revisions received September 22, 2004), and reviewed by the City's Public Works Traffic Department. Traffic impacts identified in the analysis will be appropriately mitigated by implementation of required mitigation measures. 4. According to the TIA, new trips generated by the proposed development would impact 17 Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) projects in which the proposed development exceeds the net 10 PM peak hour threshold for requiring mitigation. In lieu of construction of these improvements, prior to issuance of the building permit, the applicant may pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 toward the impacted TIP projects. 5. The Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, File No. 04-102808-SE, is hereby incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. Conclusions of Law: The goals and policies of the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan serve as a basis for requiring SEPA conditions. TG2 Provide a safe, efficient, convenient, and financially sustainable transportation system with sufficient capacity to move people, goods, and services at an acceptable level of service. The City shall develop and adopt policies for the construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and preservation of new and existing facilities. TG3 Extend the functional life of the existing transportation system and increase its safe, efficient operational through application of TSMstrategies. TP16 The City's LOS standard shall be E. This is defined herein as a volume/capacity ratio less than 1.00 in accordance with Highway Capacity Manual (2000) operational analysis procedures. At signalized intersections, the analysis shall be conducted using a 120-second cycle length and level of service E is defined as less than 80 seconds of delay per vehicle. Where transit or HOV facilities are provided, the LOS shall be measured by average delay and volume/capacity ratio per person rather than per vehicle. This standard shall be used to identify concurrency needs and mitigation of development impacts. For long-range transportation planning and concurrency analysis, a volume/capacity ratio of 0.90 or greater will be used to identify locations for the more detailed operational analysis. TP17 Expand arterial capacity by constructing channel ization improvements at intersections when they are an alternative to creating new lanes along a roadway corridor. TP24 Consider safety first in the design of intersection improvements. TP25 Allow improvements to traffic flow only where they contribute to traffic and pedestrian safety, high capacity transit and HOV system enhancements, and reduce air pollution. Federal Way Community Center 04-102808 / o., I.D. 29477 Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance Page 2 TP29 Reduce reliance on the single occupant auto by prioritizing and implementing supportive local -level transit, HOV, and non -motorized improvements. TP 30 Identify and plan for multi -modal freeway, arterial, and collector street improvements which ensure more efficient use of existing roads and enhancement of HOV, transit, and related non - motorized operations. TP38 Include sufficient area in rights -of -way for bike lanes, sidewalks, and landscaped medians to provide separation from motorized traffic as funds allow. Use landscaped medians to separate opposing traffic when safety and aesthetic purposes dictate the need. TP42 Arterial HOV improvements will be constructed along key corridors to improve flow and encourage use of these more efficient modes. TP47 Access Management, placing restrictions on left turns across major arterial streets, will be used to reduce crash rates and extend capacity of major arterials. The lead agency for this proposal has determined that the proposed action does not have probable significant adverse impact on the environment, and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21 C.032(2)(c), only if the following conditions are met. This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency. This information is available to the public on request. Condition of Approval/Mitigation Measures: Based on the above policies, the following mitigation measures are required to minimize identified potential significant adverse impacts. 1. In order to mitigate for potential adverse transportation impacts resulting from the construction of the project, the TIP improvements listed in the table below must be constructed by the applicant prior to issuance of any construction permits for the community center. In lieu of constructing these TIP projects, the applicant may voluntarily offer to pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 towards the following (TIP) projects based on the calculation below. Pro-rata Share Contribution to Transportation Improvement Projects Pro-rata share contribution is required using the following formula: Pro-rata share percentage = project PM peak hour trips/future with project PM peak hour volume x 100. Pro-rata share amount = pro-rata share percentage x estimated TIP project cost / 100. The pro-rata share percentage is calculated using PM peak hour volumes and was determined by the traffic impact analysis. The pro-rata share amount is shown in the table below.

Federal Way MITIGATED ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE' FEDERAL WAY COMMUNITY CENTER Federal Way File No: 04-102808-00-SE Related File Nos: 04-102807-00-UP, 04-102809-00-UP and 03-104928-00-PC Description of Proposal: Proposed action includes construction of a 78,500 square -foot community center building containing indoor recreation and community services including: gymnasium, fitness center, swimming pool, locker room, kitchen, caf6, and meeting/multi-purpose rooms. Associated site improvements include development of a parking lot, landscaping, right-of-way and utility extension, and storm drainage improvements. Approximately 3.5 acres of conifer forest will be designated an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Proponent: Ms. Betty Sanders City of Federal Way PARCS Department PO Box 9718 Federal Way, WA 98063-9718 Phone: 253-835-6912 Location: 33190 9th Avenue South, Federal Way, WA Lead Agency: City of Federal Way City Contact: Janet Shull, AICP, Contract Planner, 206-244-3749 The Responsible Official of the City of Federal Way hereby makes the following Findings of Fact based upon impacts identified in the Environmental Checklist; the Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, Federal Way File No. 04-102808-SE; Conclusions of Law based upon the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan; and other policies, plans, rules, and regulations designated as a basis for exercise of substantive authority under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act Rules pursuant to RCW 43.21 C.060. Findings of Fact: The proposed action includes construction of a 78,500 square -foot community center. The project site is located within Celebration Park, generally located at the intersection of 91h Avenue South and the extension of South 333`d Street. The proposal also includes utility extension, storm drainage improvements, and on -site parking and landscaping. 2. The subject property is zoned Office Park (OP). The comprehensive plan designation for the site is Park and Open Space. In accordance with code requirements, traffic impacts associated with the proposed action were analyzed and mitigation proposed in the applicant's Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) (prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest, received July 16, 2004, with revisions received September 22, 2004), and reviewed by the City's Public Works Traffic Department. Traffic impacts identified in the analysis will be appropriately mitigated by implementation of required mitigation measures. 4. According to the TIA, new trips generated by the proposed development would impact 17 Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) projects in which the proposed development exceeds the net 10 PM peak hour threshold for requiring mitigation. In lieu of construction of these improvements, prior to issuance of the building permit, the applicant may pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 toward the impacted TIP projects. 5. The Final Staff Evaluation for Environmental Checklist, File No. 04-102808-SE, is hereby incorporated by reference as though set forth in full. Conclusions of Law: The goals and policies of the 2003 Federal Way Comprehensive Plan serve as a basis for requiring SEPA conditions. TG2 Provide a safe, efficient, convenient, and financially sustainable transportation system with sufficient capacity to move people, goods, and services at an acceptable level of service. The City shall develop and adopt policies for the construction, reconstruction, maintenance, and preservation of new and existing facilities. TG3 Extend the functional life of the existing transportation system and increase its safe, efficient operational through application of TSMstrategies. TP16 The City's LOS standard shall be E. This is defined herein as a volume/capacity ratio less than 1.00 in accordance with Highway Capacity Manual (2000) operational analysis procedures. At signalized intersections, the analysis shall be conducted using a 120-second cycle length and level of service E is defined as less than 80 seconds of delay per vehicle. Where transit or HOV facilities are provided, the LOS shall be measured by average delay and volume/capacity ratio per person rather than per vehicle. This standard shall be used to identify concurrency needs and mitigation of development impacts. For long-range transportation planning and concurrency analysis, a volume/capacity ratio of 0.90 or greater will be used to identify locations for the more detailed operational analysis. TP 17 Expand arterial capacity by constructing channelization improvements at intersections when they are an alternative to creating new lanes along a roadway corridor. TP24 Consider safety first in the design of intersection improvements. TP25 Allow improvements to traffic flow only where they contribute to traffic and pedestrian safety, high capacity transit and HOV system enhancements, and reduce air pollution. Federal Way Community Center 04-102808 / Doc. ID. 29477 Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance Page 2 TP29 Reduce reliance on the single occupant auto by prioritizing and implementing supportive local -level transit, HOV, and non -motorized improvements. TP 30 Identify and plan for multi -modal freeway, arterial, and collector street improvements which ensure more efficient use of existing roads and enhancement of HOV, transit, and related non - motorized operations. TP38 Include sufficient area in rights -of -way for bike lanes, sidewalks, and landscaped medians to provide separation from motorized traffic as funds allow. Use landscaped medians to separate opposing traffic when safety and aesthetic purposes dictate the need. TP42 Arterial HOV improvements will be constructed along key corridors to improve flow and encourage use of these more efficient modes. TP47 Access Management, placing restrictions on left turns across major arterial streets, will be used to reduce crash rates and extend capacity of major arterials. The lead agency for this proposal has determined that the proposed action does not have probable significant adverse impact on the environment, and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.032(2)(c), only if the following conditions are met. This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency. This information is available to the public on request. Condition of Approval/Mitigation Measures: Based on the above policies, the following mitigation measures are required to minimize identified potential significant adverse impacts. In order to mitigate for potential adverse transportation impacts resulting from the construction of the project, the TIP improvements listed in the table below must be constructed by the applicant prior to issuance of any construction permits for the community center. In lieu of constructing these TIP projects, the applicant may voluntarily offer to pay a pro-rata share contribution of $274,311.00 towards the following (TIP) projects based on the calculation below. Pro-rata Share Contribution to Transportation Improvement Projects Pro-rata share contribution is required using the following formula: Pro-rata share percentage = project PM peak hour trips/future with project PM peak hour volume x 100. Pro-rata share amount = pro-rata share percentage x estimated TIP project cost / 100. The pro-rata share percentage is calculated using PM peak hour volumes and was determined by the traffic impact analysis. The pro-rata share amount is shown in the table below.

We have determined that the proposal, in conjunction with mitigation measures identified in the enclosed Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance, does not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. These measures have been established to mitigate specific probable significant adverse environmental impacts identified in the Environmental Checklist and related documents. As a result, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required to comply with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), if each of the attached measures is properly implemented. A copy of the determination is enclosed. A 14-day comment period is required by the SEPA Rules (WAC 197-11-340). A notice inviting comments will be published in the Federal Way Mirror on November 6, 2004. At the end of the comment period, the Department will determine if the MDNS should be withdrawn, modified, or issued as proposed. All final determinations may be appealed within 14 days following the comment deadline. No licenses, permits, or approvals will be issued until completion of the appeal period. Our decision not to require an EIS does not mean that the license(s), permit(s), or approval(s) you are seeking from the City have been granted. Approval or denial of the proposal will be made by the appropriate administrative or legislative body vested with that authority. The environmental record is considered by the decision maker(s) and conditions may be imposed to reduce identified environmental impacts as long as the conditions are based on adopted and designated City policy. After a final decision has been made on your proposal (i.e., after a permit has been issued or City Council action taken, as applicable), you may, but are not required to, publish a Notice of Action as set forth in RCW 43.21C.075. The Notice of Action sets forth a time period after which no legal challenges regarding the proposal's compliance with SEPA can be made. A copy of the Notice of Action form and copies of RCW 43.21C.080 and WAC 197-11-680, providing instructions for giving this notice, are available from the Department of Community Development Services. The City is not responsible for publishing the Notice of Action. However, the City is responsible for giving a notice (to parties of record) stating the date for commencing a judicial appeal (including the SEPA portion of that appeal) if your proposal is one for which the City's action on it has a specified time period within which any court appeals must be made.

(Adolfson) is pleased to provide comments regarding a SEPA Checklist and Conceptual Mitigation Plan submitted by Federal Way Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services (PRCS) for the proposed Federal Way Community Center to be located in Celebration Park, in the City of Federal Way, Washington. Under a separate contract, Adolfson Associates Inc. assisted PRCS with the preparation of the SEPA Checklist and Conceptual Mitigation Plan in July 2004. Adolfson's assistance with the preparation of the environmental documents for PRCS and our subsequent evaluation of these documents for conformance with state and City regulations was conducted at the request of the City of Federal Way, under separate contracts with PRCS and DCD, respectively, in order to streamline the permitting process. The following review comments for DCD are based on the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 197-11-330 SEPA Threshold Determination, and requirements of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) detailed in FWCC Division 7-- Regulated Wetlands. SEPA Checklist Review Adolfson reviewed the Surface Water, Plants, and Animals sections of the July 2004 SEPA checklist. Those sections of the SEPA checklist appear to be complete and sufficiently describe the potential impacts associated with those elements of the environment as required by WAC 197-11-330. Based upon guidance provided in WAC 197-11-330, the Community Center project as proposed will not significantly affect the quality of surface water, plants, or animals in the project vicinity. Conceptual Mitigation Plan Review The SEPA Checklist identifies thatl.7 acres of buffer for a Class 1 wetland will be affected. The Conceptual Mitigation Plan describes how PRCS would compensate for the loss of forested upland buffer that will be eliminated by the Community Center project. According to the plan, the loss of 1.7 acre of wetland buffer will be offset through the addition of 3.5 acres of wetland buffer located in an undeveloped portion of the park west of the proposed Community Center and adjacent to the remaining 200-foot buffer. Under this approach, the buffer ADOLFSON ASSOCIATES, INC. 5309 Shilshole Avenue NW, Suite 200 Seattle, WA 98107 °Tel 206 789 9658 1-- 206 789 9684 adoyson@ac%lyson-{om- %� Shull letter/Federal Way On -Call Task 115 26 August 2004 Page 2 of 2 impacts will be mitigated at a 2:1 ratio and the new buffer area will be permanently set aside from future development and protected in a Native Growth Protection Easement. This approach to mitigating the loss of wetland buffer is consistent with the FWCC 22-1359(f) requirement that the project not adversely affect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat. It should be noted that the PRCS plan that was submitted for DCD review is conceptual in nature and that a final mitigation plan that more precisely identifies the location of the proposed mitigation area as well as the proposed location of fencing and signs identifying the area as Native Growth Protection Easement will need to be submitted before final permit approval can be issued. Please feel free to call me at (206) 7 89-965 8 if you have additional questions about these comments.

Pursuant to Federal Way City Code (FWCC), the application was deemed complete as of August 6, 2004, based on the submittal requirements for State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Process III Project approval, and Process IV Hearing Examiner approval. The project is being reviewed under the provisions of FWCC Chapter 22, Article VI, "Process III Review — Project Approval," and Chapter 22, Article VII, "Process IV Review — Hearing Examiner Approval," in addition to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REQUESTED The following comments are based on initial technical review of the application by City staff. With this request for additional information, the permit review time frame is suspended with six days used, and it will be restarted within fourteen days of the date of your complete response to this request. 1. Traffic Impact Analysis Perteet Inc. has completed a review of the Federal Way Community Center Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) report, June 22, 2004, as prepared by Transportation Consulting Northwest. The TIA report is complete, but the following technical comments must be addressed. 1. Page 6 — Indicate the ITE Trip Generation Manual Edition used to develop trip generation estimates. Additionally, provide the Puyallup YMCA trip generation data in the report or in the Appendix. ❑ Indicate the ITE Trip Generation Manual Edition used. ❑ Provide Puyallup YMCA Trip Generation data. - ❑ Include the trip generation letter submitted to the City, in the Appendix. 2. Page 6 — The third paragraph indicates that the project will generate 137 new PM peak hour trips. However, Table 1 indicates that the project will generate 251 trips. ❑ Revise the third paragraph and Table 1 to be consistent (Page 6). Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 2 Figures 3a and 3b — Revise the turning movement counts at the intersections of # 17, 25, 27, and 29 to match with the counts documented in the Appendix. ❑ Revise Figures 3a.and 3b. 4. Figures 3a and 3b — Year 2001 traffic counts were used at the intersections 4 and 23. The City of Federal Way -guidelines indicate that traffic counts less than two years old need to be used. ❑ Gather new counts at intersection 23 and revise the volumes and LOS analysis for.this intersection. 5. Figures 4a and 4b — Based on pipeline volumes provided in the Appendix, it appears that there are minor errors in the pipeline volumes at the intersections of 1, 3, 18, 23, and 25. ❑ Intersection # 1: EB volume should be 13 instead of 3. ❑ Intersection #3: NBT volume should be 41 and NBR should be 7. ❑ Intersection # 18: NBT should be 5 and SBT should be 8. ❑ Intersection #23: NBT should be 5 and SBT should be 8. ❑ Intersection #25: WBL volume should be -23 and WBT should be 40. 6. Figures 5a and 5b — Recheck the volumes at the intersections of #8, 3, 6, 25, 27, and 29. ❑ These errors appear to be because of errors on Figures 3a and 3b. 7. Figures 6a, 6b, and 6c — Recheck the volumes at the intersections of 3, 15, and 25. Also, for the baseline scenario, it is assumed that the extension of South 333`d-Street to 91h Avenue will exist by the Year 2006 without the project. However, this extension will be needed only with the community center project. Therefore, please revise the volumes and LOS analysis for baseline scenario without project with no South 333`d Street extension to 9`h Avenue. ❑ Revise Figures 6a, 6b, and 6c and LOS analysis. 8. Figures 7a — The project volumes at the two site driveways should match Table 1. It doesn't match currently. ❑ Revise Figures 7a or Table 1 to show correct site driveway volumes. 9. Level of Service Calculations — Revise the LOS calculations and-LOS Tables where necessary, based on the above comments. ❑ Replace LOS calculation sheets in the Appendix. ❑ The new City guidelines states that average V/C ratio instead of max V/C ratio could be used to see if the intersection fails or not. Please contact Sarady Long or Rick Perez to get approval to use new guidelines regarding average V/C ratio. ❑ Provide average V/C ratio using HCM Method within Synchro model for the signalized intersections. 10. Table 10 — Based on the revisions from Figure 7a, revise Table 10 to reflect right project volumes at the study intersections. ❑ Existing Table 10 shows that at the intersection #17, the site trips are one. However the intersection experiences 15 project trips. -Please revise the table. 11. Progression Analysis — Include progression analysis as per the City guidelines for new signal at 333`d Street/I` Way South, if built, as it is located within one-half mile of South 336"' Street. 04-102807 Doc I D 28575 Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 3 ❑ Provide a five-year progression analysis along 1S` Way South from South 320`h Street to South 3361h Street. 12. Page 21 — The City of Federal Way staff does not recommend placing All Way Stop Control at the intersection of South 332°a Street/9`h Avenue. Therefore, provide a mini roundabout or re - grade the intersection to meet sight distance requirements. 13. Page 20 — As per the new City traffic impact analysis guidelines, signalized intersections and all -way stop controlled intersections shall have a level of service of E or better and an average volume/capacity ratio less than 1.00. If there is a TIP project at the intersection that does not meet the requirement, the applicant needs to provide a pro-rata share. If there is no TIP project at the intersection that does not meet the requirement, please provide mitigation to reduce the average V/C ratio to less than 1.0. ❑ The new City guidelines states that average V/C ratio instead of max V/C ratio could be used to see if the intersection fails or not. Please contact Sarady Long or Rick Perez to get approval to use new guidelines regarding average V/C ratio. ❑ Provide average V/C ratio using HCM Method within Synchro model for the signalized intersections. 2. Development Application Submittal Requirements Checklist During the course of the City's review, the following additional information and/or.:revisions from the Development Application Submittal Requirements Checklist were identified: The Site Plan must depict the following information: Dimensions of buildings, property lines, and -parking layout. The Preliminary Landscape Plan (Sheets L1.0, L1.1, L1.2, and L1.3) must depict the following information: Show the name of the project on each drawing sheet. Provide more specific planting information for trees, shrubs, -arid ground coyer, indicating - proposed shrub planting patternand proposed plant species. (The preliminary plan indicates only the proposed tree planting: locations and a list of possible plant types for each -planting area.) Provide quantities for significant trees as follows: total number of significant trees on site, total number proposed to be removed, total number to remain, number of replacement trees if any. Show how outdoor facilities such as trash/recycling facilities and ground -based mechanical equipment is to be screened. Show elevations of proposed planting for areas where plantings will be used to screen blank wails (plant material in relation to building elevation).- - - PRELIMINARY PROCESS III COMMENTS In addition to the items discussed above, preliminary Process III review-comments'are provided below. A. Planning Department (Janet Shull, 206-244-3749, janetshulldesign@comcast.net) 1. Community Design Guidelines • A preliminary review of the building elevations and plan drawings indicates that some facades, or portions of facades, may be greater than 60 feet in length and visible from a 04-102807 Doc I.D. 28575 Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 4 right-of-way. Facades that are greater than 60 feet in length and visible from a right-of-way must show how they meet the requirements of FWCC Section 22-1635(b) "building facade modulation and screening..." Please provide building dimension information and address how facade modulation will be provided if needed. • Indicate the proposed paving materials for the pedestrian pathways. Pedestrian pathways and pedestrian areas must be delineated by separate paved routes using a variation in paved texture and color. • Indicate on the site and/or landscape plans how bicycle racks and outdoor furniture and fixtures such as lighting, freestanding signs, trellises, arbors, raised planters, benches/seating, trash receptacles, phone booths, etc are incorporated into the site design. 2. Landscaping • Indicate how the areas around the proposed on -site storm detention ponds will be landscaped. Due to the public nature of this project, it is strongly recommended that fencing materials that complement the architectural design of the proposed building and plantings and discourage access to the detention ponds be provided. • A preliminary review of the building elevations indicates that there are blank walls requiring screening per FWCC Section 22-1564(u). Building walls which are uninterrupted by window, door, or other architectural feature, that are 240 square feet or greater in area and not located on a property line shall be screened by landscaping. Such planting shall include trees, shrubs, and groundcover appropriate for the area proposed. Please provide information in plan and elevation that indicates how plantings will be used to screen blank walls. 3. Lighting • The location and type of lighting must be depicted on the site plan. Light standards may not replace required landscaping. B. Building Division (Scott Sproul, 253-661-4122, scott.sproul@cityoffederalway.com) Comments will be available at a later date. C. Public Works/Engineering (Kim Scattarella, 253-661-4132, kim.scattarella@cityoffederalway.com) The following review comments were prepared by Perteet, Inc. based on the Preliminary civil plan documents and Preliminary TIR. 1. Site grading plan does not match on -site drainage basin limits, or grading plan is inadequate to confirm basin limits. This problem exists specifically at the westerly and southerly property limits. 2. Downstream Analysis & Mapping Incomplete: ■ Wetland and other sensitive areas not shown in downstream map; ■ Subbasin needs to be delineated to identify basins listed in Table 3; ■ Show basin recon. maps & FEMA maps (if any); and ■ Mapping less than one mile from discharge point (not in compliance with TIR Checklist). Actual downstream mapping is approx. 0.6 miles. City staff feel this is sufficient. 04-102807 Doc, I.D, 28575 Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 5 Downstream Hydraulic Analysis: The report needs to clearly state that the study in the TIR is a cursory hydraulic analysis of the existing storm pipe conveyance system. The storm pipes are quite flat, but entrances losses and backwater effects are ignored in the analysis. Level 2 downstream analysis with backwater analysis is required. 4. The design of the detention facilities assume till soils are present for pre -developed conditions. The soil_ map in the report identifies it as soil group A/B, which is an outwash soil. However, if there is a till soil layer at five foot depths or less, then the till soils used in the hydrologic analysis would be acceptable (per KCSWM Table 3.2.23). Recommendation: Review the soil boring logs to identify soil types encountered on -site, and make adjustments to the hydrologic analysis (f warranted) based upon soil information. 5. The Hylebos Creek Basin Plan (KCSWM Reference 2B) specifies that infiltration is required on sites with suitable soils. Recommendation: Verb in the TIR that this option has been adequately explored and presumably ruled -out. 6. For water quality treatment, the Resource Stream Protection Menu specifies the treatment train have a wetpool facility before the leaf compost filters. The plans show a pre -settling device in lieu of a wet pond or wetvault. This type of treatment train is not identified as being an acceptable treatment method. The wetpool with dead storage is preferred for water quality treatment. Anything different from Table 6.1.3.A will require a variance from the Surface Water Management Division. 7. Need to show access roads to all control structures, per the 1998 KCSWDM specifications are required. 8. The "Preliminary TIR" needs to address or clarify the items listed below: Section 2 — Conditions and Requirements Summary The TIR states the project is currently under SEPA review. This will need to be updated and include any conditions that come forth in the.course of environmental review and permitting. Section 3 — Offsite Analysis Include in the downstream analysis a narrative of the condition of the existing downstream system, including any evidence of erosion, flooding, or siltation. Section 4 — Flow Control & Water Quality Analysis The on -site basin maps are incomplete. This map needs to: label contours, show wetland locations, and show map scale. Section 5 — Conveyance System Analysis and Design The on -site conveyance drawings need to identify drainage areas to each of the catchments. Also, see Major Drainage Issues, Item #5, in above section to this memorandum. Section 7 — Other Permits Apply for and obtain a NPDES Construction permit, with the submittal to the WDOE of a Notice of Intent (NOI) form. 04-102807 Doc. I.D. 28575 Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 6 Complete other permits identified in the draft TIR, and summarize in the report. Section 8 — ESC Analysis and Design Providing sediment ponds or sediment traps is needed as part of the ESC requirements. This has not been provided. Section 9 — Bond Quantities, Facility Summary Section not completed in the draft TIR.- Section 10 — Operations and Maintenance Manual Section not completed in the draft TIR. 9. Civil Site Corrections: 1. Missing illumination for entire site. 2. Number of handicap stalls meets IBC requirements; does City of Federal Way require more stalls? 3. Site plan summary information is only shown on sheet A100. 4. Detention Vault for wetland basin: there is inadequate information in the plans to verify adequate volume size and check if there is agreement with the calculations. Label contours in grading plan and retaining wall details. Provide north arrow in plan view details. 5. Maintenance access is needed to the drainage pond bottom and flow control structures. 6. Emergency pond overflows are needed for the two ponds. 7. A review with the City whether or not fencing or landscaping around ponds are required. 8. Plan sheet only shows footprint of improvements with no dimensions, elevations, or grades. 9. Flow splitter needed prior to discharging into stormfilter vaults. 10. Limited design information present for parts of the plans. 11. Some contours labeled, some difficult to determine what elevation. 12. Missing electricity and gas utilities; power to irrigation controller not shown. 13. Need to differentiate between proposed and existing storm drain system. 14. All catch basins and manholes need rim and invert elevations. 15. Eight -inch Conduit under roadway; this may be permitted per City of Federal Way Public Works Development Standards Section 4.3.1. Ductile iron pipe required for less than two feet of cover. If the depth of the eight -inch dia. pipe is too shallow for the catchbasin structure, it will need to be deeper. 16. Show size and extent of gabion dissipation.. 17. Show rim and invert for catch basins, manholes, detention vaults, outflow control structures, ponds, and storm filters. 18. Show inlet pipe to control structure size, length, and end treatments. 19. Storm drain manhole at Sta 14+12, 7.2' RT shows four conduits going into half of a 48" storm drain manhole. Cannot be built as shown. 20. Storm drain manhole at Sta 12+12.3, 8.2' RT shows five conduits going into a 48" storm drain manhole. Cannot be built as shown. 21. Show existing storm drainage, connecting ponds, and existing 18" dia. storm drain. 22. Show existing storm drain manhole at Sta. 20+54.63, 17.2' RT, call out manhole size. 23. Verify that existing storm drain conduit out at storm drain manhole at Sta. 20+54.63, 17.2' RT is 42" dia. 04-102807 Doc i.D. 28575 Ms. Sanders August 13, 2004 Page 7 24. Storm drain manhole, station not given, shows 18", 18", and 24" dia. conduit coming into a 48" dia. storm drain manhole. This manhole should be larger, possibly 56" dia. 25. Storm drain -manhole at Sta. 20+03 may need to be upsized, as four conduits come into a 48" dia. storm drain manhole. 26. Storm drain manhole at Sta. 20+03, 5.6' RT for 18" dia. conduit rim to invert only three feet. 27. Catchbasin at Sta. 20+26.4, 26.5' RT rim to invert for eight -inch ductile iron pipe only 1.03' . 28. Catchbasin at Sta. 20+33, 12' RT rim to invert for eight -inch ductile iron pipe only 1.23'. 10. Other Site Plan Issues to Address: 1. Plan sheet wrong size, should be either 24" X 36" or 22" X 34". 2. If sheet is going to be used for the site plan then it should be at 1"=20' scale. 3. If not used for the site plan, then as a key plan for the other sheets at 1"=20' scale. 4. Notes and Legends missing. 5. Construction notes missing. 6. Numbering manholes and catch basins would be helpful. 7. Mixing pipe slope labels of % and ft/ft. 11. Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control: 1. Need to add silt -fence along south end of project. -and westerly side of project; topo. appears to be flowing away from site. 2. Missing location and size of temporary sediment retention pond(s). 3. Missing location of. Gravel Construction Entrance. 4. Missing location and details of truck wash clown station. 12. Summary of Civil Plan Comments: - Full-size plans seem very preliminary and do not show all the necessary design information to be used for construction. The half-size.plaris are much -more complete. Roadway meets roadway section M requirements. Grading and Erosion Control sheets meet the spirit of the TESL plans. Check manhole structure size to accommodate all conduits shown connecting. Eight -inch conduit is shown_ under the roadway, this needs to be discussed with City of Federal Way staff as to whether -or not they want to maintain this conduit or upsize.to 12" diameter. It.wouId be helpful to show catchbasin and manhole number when looking at the plans. Make sure.all catchbasins and manholes have rim and invert elevations. D.

Natural amenities: Views to the woods behind the building are being maximized by the layout of the rooms, and by using large windows on this side. The "Forest Room" is a more intimate area of the entry lobby that will allow visitors to sit in comfortable chairs, next to the fireplace, and look out toward the woods and wetland. Views to Mount Rainier may be possible from the multipurpose rooms and the adjacent terrace. The terrace and landscaping have been designed to allow views in this direction, in case it is visible once construction is complete. 2. Pedestrian areas, amenities and access: The main entry to the building is designed with a focus on the pedestrian. This design will encourage slower movement of vehicles, and thus promote vehicle movement directly into the parking area instead of through the drop-off area for repeat visitors. This area will feature pavement patterns and a water feature designed by artist Bruce Myers. A seating wall will form the edge of some of the landscape beds, providing a dual purpose. Additional benches and a bike rack will be provided in this space. A small, attractively landscaped courtyard will be placed in the rear of the building, and will be visible and accessible from the forest room, senior lounge, and classrooms. There will be access into the garden from several locations. From the courtyard visitors can use the fire access lane as a trail to move to other parts of the park and site. The fire lane will use gates to limit access to vehicle traffic. On the east end of the building is a large terrace and grassy area that will be suitable for outdoor events. It is accessible from the multipurpose rooms, and from the sidewalk along the south side of the building, connecting to S. 333rd Street. (d) Pedestrian Circulation and Public Spaces 1. The pedestrian pathway to the main building entry will be delineated from the asphalt paving with a change in pavement material and color. 2. Site furnishings will include elements such as benches, trash receptacles, pedestrian lighting, and decorative fencing around the children's outdoor play area. (f) Commercial Service and Institutional Facilities The areas around the detention ponds will be planted with native, drought tolerant plants. These will be designed to appear as natural as possible. 22-1635 Building Design (b) Building Facade Modulation and Screening Options Fagade Treatment Four facade treatment options are offered in this code section. They are: 1. Fagade Modulation 2. Landscape Screening 3. Canopy or Arcade 4. Pedestrian Plaza The community center will utilize all four of these treatments. These are summarized below. Fagade Modulation The building is composed of several large masses that have been separated into smaller components, to reduce the appearance of size. This has been accomplished through modulation of the larger masses, extensive glazing, and use of several different surface materials and colors to break up the large expanses. The site is also dictating the overall building shape, which has resulted in a slightly crescent shaped building, instead of the typical rectangular shape. Some curved shapes have also been incorporated to provide additional interest, and create some distinctive interior spaces. Along the front edge of the community wing, a curved wall is found in the children's spaces, and this curvilinear shape has been copied in the seating wall and pavement patterns in the front entry. The cultural gallery is a round space that provides an entry to the multipurpose room. From the exterior, the round shape will be visible toward the east end of the building, creating another interesting form in the building elevation. 2. Landscape Screening Substantial landscape plantings will be placed around the building. The widest area is around the gymnasium; plant beds range in width from approximately 15' to 50'. Because the gym walls are long and tall, with high windows, Type II landscaping will be used here. Along the south side of the building more 2 extensive windows are present, such as at the climbing wall, and the main entry. At these areas, narrower beds of Type IV landscaping are proposed. A courtyard and garden are planned for the north side of the building, next to the forest room and senior lounge. These will serve as a gentle transition to the wooded slope beyond. 3. Canopy or Arcade The building entry has a canopy extending from the glass front doors, to protect and invite visitors into the center. Along the east end of the building will be a terrace, suitable for outdoor events and entertaining. To improve the ability to use this area in our climate, an eave, or canopy, will extend about 14 feet from the building. It may be visible from the site entry from 9"' Avenue S. 4. Pedestrian Plaza Four areas on the site can be considered pedestrian plazas. The main entry to the building consists of pedestrian space on each side of the drop-off drive. The pavement in these combined areas total about 5500 square feet. On the east end of the building a large terrace extends from the multipurpose room. The terrace is about 3500 square feet, with additional walkways, and planting beds around the edges. An amphitheater -type lawn space of 3300 square feet is adjacent, and will expand substantially the ability to hold outdoor events or gatherings. A third space is the courtyard garden located on the north side of the building, as mentioned above. This will be a more intimate scale space that is readily visible from multiple spaces inside the building. The paved area is approximately 2900 square feet. The fourth space is the patio outside the pool area, which is 1300 square feet. c) Building Articulation and Scale The following features in the building design contribute to appropriate articulation and scale of the building: 1. Windows of differing sizes and shapes are present throughout the building, to meet the needs of the various recreational and meeting space needs. A long, narrow bank of windows is present around the upper level of the gym to provide daylight into this space. A dramatic floor to ceiling window will wrap around the climbing wall so that it is highly visible from outside. A large amount of glass is also present at the main building entry, and along the east edge of the building, in the multipurpose room. 2. Trim for the windows will be aluminum with a natural anodized finish. This has a silver appearance up close, and farther away it appears white. From a distance the windows will appear dark, and the lighter mullions will allow the articulation of the windows to be clearly visible. A fence is planned along the top of a wall that creates an outdoor children's space in the front of the building. This fence will either receive a decorative treatment, or will be designed to act as a trellis, with vines growing up it. 4. A seat wall will also function as the edge of a planter bed in the front of the building. 5. Setbacks and projections occur along the south and west sides of the building. A canopy projects from the main entry, and along the east side of the building. 6. Material and color variations will be used on the entire building, including several different colors and finishes of concrete masonry, cement board panels, metal siding, and wood. 22-1636 Building and Pedestrian Orientation Sidewalk access is provided from the right-of-way to the building entrances. The space at the roundabout is the closest right-of-way to the building. The fagade of the building will be visible from S. 333'd Street and front 9th Avenue S. 22-1638 District Guidelines Office Park Surface parking is located on the west side of the building, and next to the S. 333rd Street right-of-way. A pedestrian route is provided within the primary parking area. The parking is laid out in a semi -circular pattern, and the pedestrian route acts like a spoke on a wheel, running adjacent to landscape beds in the center of the parking. This route leads the pedestrian to the drop-off area, where a pedestrian route is provided across the drive to the main entry. The glass tower around the climbing rock will be visible to the pedestrian from the right- of-way, and will draw the visitor toward the building entries. No mirrored or reflective glass will be used. Most glass will be clear, with the exception of the front entry which may include some colored glass. Outdoor Activities and Storage 22-1111 to 1113 Commercial and Industrial Uses No outdoor storage is proposed as part of this application. Outdoor activities will occur in several of the pedestrian plazas described above. Most of these would be considered passive recreational uses, such as children's play, sunbathing, walking, or waiting for a ride. The major space for outdoor activities will be the terrace and lawn area outside the multipurpose room. The terrace will be used for dining or other events such as weddings, auctions or concerts. Cleanup will be part of the contracted agreement for use of these areas. Significant Trees FWCC 22-1568(c)(2) Existing significant trees were counted on a 9.3 acre portion of the site to be developed. The number of significant trees on this portion is 216. Only those trees that looked like they might be retained were actually surveyed and mapped (134). These are illustrated on the survey drawing in the plan set. Of the significant trees shown on the survey, 66 will remain; 150 will be removed. The entire Celebration Park site was used to calculate significant tree numbers. Within the 83 acre park site., approximately 27 acres is wooded, and may contain significant trees. The remaining acreage that will not be used for the community center also contains wetland and mitigation areas that probably don't contain any significant trees. Using the number of trees counted on the 9.3 acre portion as a guide, and taking into account the presence of younger plant growth in some areas, the total number of significant trees for the park is estimated at 600. Total Significant Trees in Celebration Park: 600 Trees to be Removed: 150 Percentage of Trees to be Removed: 25% Preapplication Meeting Summary 1. PLANNING DIVISION 4. a) Comment: Please provide additional information regarding the existing "road easement... " Answer: There are several right-of-way and vehicular travel easements in Celebration Park that were recorded in the 1950s. In conversations with Public Works staff there appears to be no reason that these easements would ever be put into use. They do not follow any of the planned road alignments, and would now lead through the park to the BPA trail, which PROS does not intend to do. 5 CITY OF Federal Way DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SERVICES 33530 First Way South PO Box 9718 Federal Way WA 98063-9718 253-661-4000;Fax 253-661-4129 www.ciMffederalway.com .com Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) Checklist Directions Please fill out the checklist to indicate which strategies have been used to implement CPTED principles in your proposed project.

(Adolfson) is pleased to present the results of our field investigation of two small areas at the southeast end of Celebration Park that have previously been surveyed as wetland areas. The purpose of our field investigation was to verify the presence, location, and extent of the previously surveyed wetlands, identified as Wetlands W and V (referred to as Area W and Area V in this letter report) on the topographic map provided by you. The wetland identification methods used are based on the methods outlined in the Washington State Department of Ecology Wetland Identification and Delineation Manual (Department of Ecology, 1997). Site Visit Adolfson biologists Linda Krippner and Sara Nolan visited the site to verify the presence or absence of wetlands at the southeast end of Celebration Park (Figure 1). This portion of Celebration Park is mostly forested. The area of investigation, including Areas W and V, is located between a vegetated bioswale and a native forest community (Photo 1). This area is characterized by Data Plot W1 (attached). The area under investigation appears to have been disturbed by both excavation and compaction. Area W is located at the base of a six-foot high vertical slope that appears to have been cut by heavy machinery. Area V is bisected by a dirt road at the same approximate elevation as the adjacent Area W. In order to meet the definition of a regulated wetland an area must show indicators of the three parameters: wetland hydrology, hydric soils, and hydrophytic vegetation. Areas W and V did not appear to meet the hydric soil parameter. Soils in Areas W and V were compacted and were composed of gravel, rock, and sand (Munsell soil color 2.5Y 4/2) from 2 to 16 inches in depth. The upper two inches of the soil profile was duff (dried leaf matter). No redoximorphic features ADOLFSON ASSOCIATES, INC. 5309 Shilshole Avenue NW, Suite 200 Seattle, WA 98107 7t 206 789 9658 1— 206 789 9684 cu�o�on�icu�o�sorv.�am Celebration Park Community Center June 28, 2004 Page 2 of 2 or other indicators of hydric soil were present in Areas W and V. The wetland hydrology parameter in these locations may be met if soils are saturated for at least 30 consecutive days during the growing season; however, no soil saturation or moist soil within 16 inches of the surface was observed during the field survey, and other wetland hydrology indicators such as drainage patterns and water stained leaves were not conclusive at this time. Dominant plants in Areas W and V included -Douglas spiraea and black cottonwood (Photo 1), both plants which grow in wetlands at least 50 percent of the time. Conclusion No wetlands were identified by Adolfson in the areas previously surveyed by others as Wetlands W and V. Although hydrophytic plant species were dominant, the sites lacked the criteria distinctive of hydric soils and wetland hydrology.

M0 A D 0 L F S 0 K July 8, 2004 Environmental Solutions Ms. Betty B. Sanders City of Federal Way, PRCS P.O. Box 9718 33530 1" Way South Federal Way, Washington 98063-9718 RE: Review of Potential Impacts to Wetlands, Wetland Buffers, and Wildlife Habitat for the Proposed Federal Way Community Center Federal Way, Washington Dear Ms. Sanders: Adolfson Associates, Inc. (Adolfson) is pleased to present the results of our review of potential impacts to wetlands and wildlife from the proposed Federal Way Community Center project. The proposed community center site is located within Celebration Park, which is located west of Pacific Highway South, north of South 336th Street, and south of a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) powerline right-of-way, in the City of Federal Way, Washington. At the request of the City of Federal Way Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Services (FRCS), Adolfson has conducted a review of the project to determine whether the proposed site qualifies as a Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Area (FWHCA) as defined under the Federal Way City Code (FWCC) 18-28. Additionally, the proposed community center design includes impacting a portion of a wetland buffer and providing mitigation in the form of buffer addition. PRCS has also asked Adolfson to provide a conceptual mitigation plan to satisfy the requirements of the FWCC. Celebration Park covers approximately 83 acres and is owned by the City of Federal Way. The eastern portion of the park contains several sports fields and parking areas, while the western side of the park is largely forested. Adolfson conducted a sensitive areas study for wetlands, wildlife habitat, and frequently flooded areas in the western portion of the park in November 2003. The results of this study are documented in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson, 2003). The Adolfson sensitive areas report was reviewed along with the FWCC to provide the recommendations regarding fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas and wetlands that are discussed in this letter. ADOLFSON ASSOCIATES, INC. 5309 Shilshole Avenue NW, Suite 200 Seattle, WA 98107 `Ted 206 789 9658 1— 206 789 9684 a<%�on�iuc�a�an-{om Sanders/Federal Way Community Center July 8, 2004 Page 2 of 4 Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas Federal Way manages land for maintaining species in suitable habitats within their natural geographic distribution so that isolated subpopulations are not created. Section 18-28 of the FWCC defines fish and wildlife habitat conservation as: 1) Areas with which endangered, threatened, and sensitive species have a primary association; 2) Habitats and species of local importance; 3) Commercial and recreational shellfish areas; 4) Kelp and eelgrass beds; herring and smelt spawning areas; 5) Naturally occurring ponds under 20 acres and their submerged aquatic beds that provide fish or wildlife habitat; 6) Waters of the state; 7) Lakes, ponds and streams planted with game fish by a governmental or tribal entity; or 8) Streams. The Critical Areas section of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) (365-190- 080) is the source for the FWCC definition and includes some additional language regarding FWHCAs. It states that the objective of FWHCAs is not to maintain all individuals of all species, but rather that cooperative and coordinated land use planning is critically important among counties and cities in a region. The WAC contains a process for counties and cities to follow when classifying and designating FWHCAs. Celebration Park does not support any endangered, threatened, or sensitive species as stated in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson, 2003). The City of Federal Way has not designated any habitats or species of local importance in their current regulations, so this criteria does not apply to the property. The property does not contain any commercial or recreational shellfish areas, kelp or eelgrass beds, or herring and smelt spawning areas. There are no naturally occurring ponds under 20 acres with submerged aquatic beds that provide fish or wildlife habitat and the property does not contain any waters of the state, as defined in WAC 222-16-031. Finally, there are no lakes, ponds or streams planted with game fish by a governmental or tribal entity, and there are no streams. Based on our analysis of the FWCC and WAC definitions of FWHCAs, and a review of existing information regarding the natural resources found in the project area, it does not appear that the property qualifies as a FWHCA under the city code. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 Sanders/Federal Way Community Center July 8, 2004 Page 3 of 4 Wetland Buffer Modification The sensitive areas report (Adolfson, 2003) classified Wetland D as a Category I wetland due to the presence of mature forest. According to FWCC 22-1357(b), Category I wetlands are required to be protected by a 200-foot buffer. As requested by the City of Federal Way PRCS', Adolfson has evaluated the proposed project under the criteria listed in FWCC 22-1359(f) Modification. Under a modification, wetland buffers can be reduced by no more than 50 percent. Placement of structures within wetland buffers is permitted under FWCC 22-1359(f) as long as: 1) It will not adversely affect water quality; 2) It will not adversely affect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat; 3) It will not adversely affect drainage or stormwater retention capabilities; 4) It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards; and 5) It will not be materially detrimental to any other property in the area of the subject property nor to the city as a whole, including the loss of open space. The proposed construction of the Federal Way Community Center will impact the outer 100 feet of the buffer of Wetland D. Impacts to the wetland itself and to inner portions of the wetland buffer will be avoided. Impacts to the outer portion of Wetland D buffer along -the south side of the wetland meet the criteria for the buffer modification exception described in the city code FWCC 22-1359(f). Based on a review of existing documents and a site visit, Adolfson concludes that the proposed wetland buffer impact would not adversely affect water quality, drainage or stormwater retention because the remaining 100-foot buffer is densely vegetated and will continue to function at a high level to provide water quality improvement for runoff before it enters the wetland. The project will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards as .the existing wetland buffer is not vulnerable to erosion hazards, does not occur on a steep or unstable slope, and is well vegetated (Landau Associates 2003). Finally, there is no evidence to suggest that the project will be materially detrimental to any other property in the area because the remaining wetland buffer is of high quality and lost wetland buffer will be replaced as part of the mitigation plan (to be discussed in the following section). However, the project will affect the existing quality of the wetland buffer wildlife habitat through the reduction of the buffer. To compensate for unavoidable impacts to the outer 100 feet of the wetland buffer, the Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan (Adolfson, 2004) has been prepared. The mitigation plan describes how wetland and wetland buffer functions and values will be protected. It proposes to offset the loss of 1.7 acres (75,757 square feet) of wetland buffer on the south side of the Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 Sanders/Federal Way Community Center July 8, 2004 Page 4 of 4 wetland through the addition of double the amount of wetland buffer, or 3.5 acres (151,514 square feet). The added 3.5 acres of wetland buffer will be in an undeveloped portion of the park, located north of the proposed community center and adjacent to the southwest portion of the standard 200-foot wetland buffer. This area contains coniferous forest that provides very similar functions and values to the wetland buffer that will be impacted. The buffer impacts will be compensated at a 2:1 ratio (replacement to loss) and the additional buffer area will be permanently set aside from future development and designated as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. We feel that the permanent protection of this amount of high quality habitat will more than fully compensate for the loss of the 1.7 acres of existing wetland buffer and its functions and values. The mitigation plan (Adolfson, 2004) drawings show the amount of wetland buffer impact and buffer addition as well as the approximate location of the buffer addition. The additional wetland buffer will encompass coniferous forest located between the BPA powerline and the proposed community center. Limitations 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. The results and conclusions of this report represent the authors' best professional judgment, based upon information provided by the project proponent in addition to that obtained during the course of this study.

(Adolfson) prepared this wetland mitigation plan for the proposed Federal Way Community Center in the City of Federal Way, Washington. The Scope of Work for this project included preparing a mitigation plan for review by the City of Federal Way Department of Community Development (DCD) in support of environmental permitting for this project. This report addresses wetland buffer impacts associated with the proposed Federal Way Community Center project and presents mitigation intended to meet the requirements of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC). A vicinity map is provided as Figure 1 and the Mitigation Plan drawing is provided as Figure 2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed Federal Way Community Center site is located within Celebration Park, an approximately 83-acre park owned by the City of Federal Way, Washington. The park is located in Section 17, Township 21 North, Range 4 East, west of Pacific Highway South, north of South 336th Street, and south of a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) powerline right-of-way (Figure 1). The project area lies in the West Branch Hylebos Creek subbasin in the City of Federal Way. Surface water generally moves from north to south across the park site. A number of streams and wetland complexes are located in the park. Dominant land uses in the area surrounding the park include residential and commercial developments and roadways. Two major freeways (State Route 99 and I-5) lie east of the park. The eastern portion of the park contains several sports fields and parking areas, while the western side of the park is largely forested. A sensitive areas study for wetlands, wildlife habitat, and frequently flooded areas in the western portion of the park was conducted in November 2003. The results of this study are documented in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson, 2003). The City of Federal Way PRCS proposes to construct a 78,500 square foot community center in the western portion of Celebration Park. The proposed building will consist of a single story structure. The community center design includes a gymnasium, running track, fitness area, climbing wall, lap pool, leisure pool, locker rooms, cafe, game lounge, cultural gallery, senior lounge, childcare facilities, meeting/multi-purpose rooms, classrooms, and outdoor space. The gymnasium occupies the western portion of the facility, the swimming pools, fitness areas, locker rooms, and climbing wall occupy the central portion, and the eastern portion of the facility is used by the community spaces. Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 1 24038 July 2005 Federal Way Community Center Final Mitigation Plan WETLAND DETERMINATION SUMMARY A detailed discussion of on -site wetland characteristics may be found in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson 2003). One wetland was identified within 200 feet of the proposed community center and was delineated as "Wetland D". Wetland D is approximately 1.16 acres in size and is a palustrine forested wetland that supports seasonal ponding. Adolfson delineated the western border of Wetland D during the September 2003 site visit; EarthTech subsequently surveyed this boundary. Wetland D is part of a stream/wetland system that runs north/south across the western portion of the park and includes Wetlands C, D, and M-2 (City of Federal Way PRCS, 1997). Wetland functions and values are described in detail in the wetland study report prepared by Adolfson. In general, Wetland D merited moderate to high ratings for most of the wetland functions assessed, including water -related functions (floodwater and stormwater control, base flow and groundwater support, water quality improvement), habitat -related functions (natural biological support, overall habitat functions), and cultural and socioeconomic functions (educational opportunities, aesthetic value). The buffer surrounding Wetland D is densely vegetated forest, especially along the western and northern sides of the wetland. As part of the previous development of the sports fields at Celebration Park, a wetland mitigation area was implemented in 1999 that is located north of Wetland D. This mitigation site borders the northeastern boundary of the buffer of Wetland D, providing a vegetated buffer between the wetland and the soccer fields to the east. The southeastern portion of the Wetland D buffer contains a short (200 feet in length) informal trail running south to north. The trail becomes blocked by shrubby vegetation as it approaches the northeast corner of Wetland D. WETLAND IMPACT EVALUATION The sensitive areas report (Adolfson, 2003) classified Wetland D as a Category I wetland due to the presence of mature forest. According to the FWCC 22-1357(b), Category I wetlands are required to be protected by a 200-foot buffer. As requested by the City of Federal Way PRCS, Adolfson has evaluated the proposed project under the criteria within FWCC 22-1359(f) Modification. Under a modification, wetland buffers can be reduced by no more than 50 percent. Placement of structures within wetland buffers is permitted under FWCC 22-1359(f) as long as: 1) It will not adversely affect water quality; 2) It will not adversely affect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat; 3) It will not adversely affect drainage or stormwater retention capabilities; 4) It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards; and 5) It will not be materially detrimental to any other property in the area of the subject property nor to the City as a whole, including the loss of open space. The proposed construction of the Federal Way Community Center will impact the outer 100 feet of the buffer of Wetland D. Impacts to the wetland itself and inner portions of the wetland buffer Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 2 24038 July 2005 Federal Way Community Center Final Mitigation Plan will be avoided. Wetland buffer impacts anticipated by the project are shown on Figure 2. Impacts to the outer portion of Wetland D buffer along the south side of the wetland meet the criteria for the wetland buffer modification exception described in the FWCC 22-139(f). Based on a review of existing documents and a site visit, Adolfson concludes that the proposed wetland buffer impact would not adversely affect water quality, drainage or stormwater retention because the remaining 100-foot buffer is densely vegetated and will continue to function at a high level to provide water quality improvement for runoff before it enters the wetland. The project will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards as the existing wetland buffer is not vulnerable to erosion hazards, does not occur on a steep or unstable slope, and is well vegetated (Landau Associates, 2003). Finally, there is no evidence to suggest that the project will be materially detrimental to any other property in the area because there are no structures or properties in the immediate vicinity, the remaining wetland buffer is of high quality, and the lost wetland buffer will be replaced as part of the mitigation plan (to be discussed in the following section). However, the project will affect the existing quality of the wetland buffer wildlife habitat through the reduction of the buffer. This mitigation plan has been prepared to address unavoidable impacts to the wetland buffer. The mitigation plan proposes to offset the loss of wetland buffer on the south side of the wetland through the addition of double the amount of wetland buffer in an undeveloped portion of the park, located north of the proposed community center and adjacent to a portion of the remaining 200-foot wetland buffer. COMPENSATORY MITIGATION PLAN The actions proposed by this mitigation plan will compensate for the loss of wetland functions resulting from development of 1.7 acre (75,757 square feet) of wetland buffer. These impacts are necessary to construct the Federal Way Community Center project as designed. Impacts to the adjacent wetland will be avoided. Mitigation Goals & Objectives A total of 1.7 acres of wetland buffer will be eliminated by the proposed Federal Way Community Center project. The goal of this mitigation plan is to replace the lost buffer functions and values through the expansion of wetland buffer on the west side of the proposed project site. The mitigation described in this plan will accomplish this goal through the incorporation 3.5 acres (151,514 square feet) of additional wetland buffer to be permanently set aside from future development as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Wetland Buffer Addition Approximately 1.7 acres of wetland buffer on the south side of Wetland D will be lost due to construction of the proposed community center. The loss of wetland buffer will be offset through the addition of 3.5 acres of wetland buffer in an undeveloped portion of the park west of Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 3 24038 July 2005 1 Federal Wav Community Center Final Mitigation Plan I J I I I the proposed community center and adjacent to the portion of the standard 200-foot buffer and the BPA powerline right-of-way. The buffer impacts will be compensated at a 2:1 ratio (replacement to loss) and the new buffer area will be permanently set aside from future development and designated as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Figure 2 shows the amount of wetland buffer impact and buffer addition as well as the location of the buffer addition. The additional wetland buffer will encompass coniferous forest located between the BPA powerline and the proposed community center. The Native Growth Protection Area (NGPA) will be demarcated with signage every 150 feet along the buffer perimeter where the public easily accesses it. In those areas that are less accessible and more forested, signs will be placed every 300 feet along the buffer perimeter. Figure 2 shows the signs approximate locations; Figure 3 shows the NGPA signage in detail.

(Adolfson) prepared this conceptual wetland mitigation plan for the proposed Federal Way Community Center in the City of Federal Way, Washington. The Scope of Work for this project included preparing a conceptual mitigation plan for review by the City of Federal Way Department of Community Development (DCD) in support of environmental permitting for this project. This report addresses wetland buffer impacts associated with the proposed Federal Way Community Center project and presents a mitigation concept intended to meet the requirements of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC). A vicinity map is provided as Figure 1 and the - 1 Conceptual Mitigation Plan drawing is provided as Figure 2. _J 1 J PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed Federal Way Community Center site is located within Celebration Park, an approximately 83-acre park owned by the City of Federal Way, Washington. The park is located in Section 17, Township 21 North, Range 4 East, west of Pacific Highway South, north of South 336th Street, and south of a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) powerline right-of-way (Figure 1). The project area lies in the West Branch Hylebos Creek subbasin in the City of Federal Way. Surface water generally moves from north to south across the park site. A number of streams and wetland complexes are located in the park. Dominant land uses in the area surrounding the park include residential and commercial developments and roadways. Two major freeways (State Route 99 and I-5) lie east of the park. The eastern portion of the park contains several sports fields and parking areas, while the western side of the park is largely forested. A sensitive areas study for wetlands, wildlife habitat, and frequently flooded areas in the western portion of the park was conducted in November 2003. The results of this study are documented in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson, 2003). The City of Federal Way PRCS proposes to construct a 78,500 square foot community center in the western portion of Celebration Park. The proposed building will consist of a single story structure. The community center design includes a gymnasium, running track, fitness area, climbing wall, lap pool, leisure pool, locker rooms, cafe, game lounge, cultural gallery, senior lounge, childcare facilities, meeting/multi-purpose rooms, classrooms, and outdoor space. The gymnasium occupies the western portion of the facility, the swimming pools, fitness areas, locker rooms, and climbing wall occupy the central portion, and the eastern portion of the facility is used by the community spaces. Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 1 24038 July 2004 Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan WETLAND DETERMINATION SUMMARY A detailed discussion of on -site wetland characteristics may be found in the Draft Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report (Adolfson 2003). One wetland was identified within 200 feet of the proposed community center and was delineated as "Wetland D". Wetland D is approximately 1.16 acres in size and is a palustrine forested wetland that supports seasonal ponding. Adolfson delineated the western border of Wetland D during the September 2003 site visit; EarthTech subsequently surveyed this boundary. Wetland D is part of a stream/wetland system that runs north/south across the western portion of the park and includes Wetlands C, D, and M-2 (City of Federal Way PRCS, 1997). Wetland functions and values are described in detail in the wetland study report prepared by Adolfson. In general, Wetland D merited moderate to high ratings for most of the wetland functions assessed, including water -related functions (floodwater and stormwater control, base flow and groundwater support, water quality improvement), habitat -related functions (natural biological support, overall habitat functions), and cultural and socioeconomic functions (educational opportunities, aesthetic value). The buffer surrounding Wetland D is densely vegetated forest, especially along the western and northern sides of the wetland. As part of the previous development of the sports fields at Celebration Park, a wetland mitigation area was implemented in 1999 that is located north of Wetland D. This mitigation site borders the northeastern boundary of the buffer of Wetland D, providing a vegetated buffer between the wetland and the soccer fields to the east. The southeastern portion of the Wetland D buffer contains a short (200 feet in length) informal trail running south to north. The trail becomes blocked by shrubby vegetation as it approaches the northeast corner of Wetland D. WETLAND IMPACT EVALUATION The sensitive areas report (Adolfson, 2003) classified Wetland D as a Category I wetland due to the presence of mature forest. According to the FWCC 22-1357(b), Category I wetlands are required to be protected by a 200-foot buffer. As requested by the City of Federal Way PRCS', Adolfson has evaluated the proposed project under the criteria within FWCC 22-1359(f) Modification. Under a modification, wetland buffers can be reduced by no more than 50 percent. Placement of structures within wetland buffers is permitted under FWCC 22-1359(f) as Jlong as: 1) It will not adversely affect water quality; 2) It will not adversely affect the existing quality of the wetland's or buffer's wildlife habitat; �1 3) It will not adversely affect drainage or stormwater retention capabilities; J 4) It will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards; and 5) It will not be materially detrimental to any other pfoperty in the area of the subject property nor to the City as a whole, including the loss of open space. Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 2 24038 July 2004 J Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan J The proposed construction of the Federal Way Community Center will impact the outer 100 feet of the buffer of Wetland D. Impacts to the wetland itself and inner portions of the wetland buffer will be avoided. Wetland buffer impacts anticipated by the project are shown on Figure 2. Impacts to the outer portion of Wetland D buffer along the south side of the wetland meet the criteria for the wetland buffer modification exception described in the FWCC 22-139(f). Based on a review of existing documents and a site visit, Adolfson concludes that the proposed wetland buffer impact would not adversely affect water quality, drainage or stormwater retention because the remaining 100-foot buffer is densely vegetated and will continue to function at a high level to provide water quality improvement for runoff before it enters the wetland. The project will not lead to unstable earth conditions nor create erosion hazards as the existing wetland buffer is not vulnerable to erosion hazards, does not occur on a steep or unstable slope, and is well vegetated (Landau Associates, 2003). Finally, there is no evidence to suggest that the project will be materially detrimental to any other property in the area because there are no structures or properties in the immediate vicinity, the remaining wetland buffer is of high quality, and the lost wetland buffer will be replaced as part of the mitigation plan (to be discussed in the following section). However, the project will affect the existing quality of the wetland buffer wildlife habitat through the reduction of the buffer. This mitigation plan has been prepared to address unavoidable impacts to the wetland buffer. The mitigation plan proposes to offset the loss of wetland buffer on the south side of the wetland through the addition of double the amount of wetland buffer in an undeveloped portion of the park, located north of the proposed community center and adjacent to a portion of the remaining 200-foot wetland buffer. COMPENSATORY MITIGATION PLAN The actions proposed by this mitigation plan will compensate for the loss of wetland functions resulting from development of 1.7 acre (75,757 square feet) of wetland buffer. These impacts are necessary to construct the Federal Way Community Center project as designed. Impacts to the adjacent wetland will be avoided. Mitigation Goals & Objectives A total of 1.7 acre of wetland buffer will be eliminated by the proposed Federal Way Community Center project. The goal of this mitigation plan is to replace the lost buffer functions and values through the expansion of wetland buffer on the west side of the proposed project site. The mitigation concept described in this plan will accomplish this goal through the incorporation 3.5 acres (151,514 square feet) of additional wetland buffer to be permanently set aside from future development as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Adolfson Associates, Inc Page 3 24038 July 2004 Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan I I J I I I I I I Wetland Buffer Addition Approximately 1.7 acres of wetland buffer on the south side of Wetland D will be lost due to construction of the proposed community center. The loss of wetland buffer will be offset through the addition of 3.5 acres of wetland buffer in an undeveloped portion of the park west of the proposed community center and adjacent to the portion of the standard 200-foot buffer and the BPA powerline right-of-way. The buffer impacts will be compensated at a 2:1 ratio (replacement to loss) and the new buffer area will be permanently set aside from future development and designated as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. Figure 2 shows the amount of wetland buffer impact and buffer addition as well as the approximate location of the buffer addition. The additional wetland buffer will encompass coniferous forest located between the BPA powerline and the proposed community center.

(Adolfson) prepared this technical report for the Celebration Park Community Center site. The Celebration Park Community Center site is located within Celebration Park, an approximately 83-acre park owned by the City of Federal Way, Washington. The park is located west of Pacific Highway South, north of South 336th Street, and south of a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) trail right-of-way. - This technical report describes environmentally sensitive areas located within the Celebration Park site and that are regulated by the City of Federal Way, including: wetlands, fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas, and frequently flooded areas. The study area for this report encompasses the western third of the park (approximately 27 acres), south of the BPA trail and west of the soccer fields. As requested by PARCS, the focus of this report was the delineation of the west boundary of Wetland D, which is located in the western portion of Celebration Park (the study area) and near the proposed community center, and the assessment of wildlife habitat in the study area. Celebration Park lies in the West Branch Hylebos Creek subbasin in the City of Federal Way. Surface water generally moves from north to south across the park site. A number of streams and wetland complexes are located in the park. The eastern portion of Celebration Park contains several sports fields and parking areas, while the western side of the park within the study area is largely forested. Dominant land uses in the area surrounding the park include residential and commercial developments and roadways. - The study area contains a forest of mixed deciduous and coniferous trees with a dense shrub understory, abundant downed wood, and minimal invasion by exotic plant species. Wetlands within the study area tend to be dominated by deciduous trees, while conifers dominate many upland forest areas. With the exception of pedestrian trails and one small burned area, the forest within the study area appears to have experienced relatively little recent human disturbance based on observations during the 2003 site visit by Adolfson. Wetland D is a forested wetland located in a bowl -shaped, flow -through depression within the J study area in the western portion of the park. Wetland D would be classified as a Category I wetland due to the presence of mature forest. The standard buffer for a Category I wetland under Federal Way City Code is 200 feet. A Up to 20 special -status wildlife species (federal or state endangered, threatened, candidate, monitor, or species of concern) may occur in the park based on their habitat requirements. Of these potentially occurring species, up to five have been documented as occurring in Celebration Park, while three others have documented nesting/breeding areas within one to three miles of the park. 1 A Adolfson Associates, Inc. page i 711512004 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 PROJECT AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OF WORK.......................................................1 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION AND STUDY AREA................................................................................1 3.0 METHODS......................................................................................................................................2 3.1 REVIEW OF EXISTING INFORMATION.....................................................................................................2 3.2 ON -SITE INVESTIGATION.......................................................................................................................3 3.2.1 Wetland Determination and Delineation Methods.................................................................. 3 3.2.2 Assessment of Wetland Functions ........................ ................. .................................................. 3 3.2.3 Wildlife Habitat Assessment.................................................................................................... 4 4.0 FINDINGS......................................................................................................................................4 4.1 WETLANDS...........................................................................................................................................4 4.1.1 Wetland D............................................................................................................................... 5 4.1.2 Wetlands V and W...................................................................................................................8 4.2 WILDLIFE AND HABITATS......................................................................................................................8 4.2.1 Previous Wildlife Studies at Celebration Park........................................................................ 8 4.2.2 Habitat Features and Species Observed in the Study Area during 2003................................ 9 4.2.3 Special -Status Species and Habitats...................................................................................... 9 5.0 REGULATORY CONTEXT.......................................................................................................13 5.1 WETLANDS.........................................................................................................................................14 5.2 FISH AND WILDLIFE HABITAT CONSERVATION AREAS........................................................................15 5.3 FREQUENTLY FLOODED AREAS..........................................................................................................15 6.0 Lnm TrATIONS............................................................................................................................16 7.0 REFERENCES.............................................................................................................................16 FIGURES GLOSSARY OF TERMS APPENDIX A: PARAMETERS USED FOR WETLAND DETERMIINATION APPENDIX B: WETLAND DETERIVIINATION DATA FORMS APPENDIX C: WETLAND FUNCTIONS AND VALUES ASSESSMENT APPENDIX D: PHOTOGRAPHS APPENDIX E: COMMON AND SCIENTIFIC PLANT NAMES APPENDIX F: USFWS SPECIES LIST AND LIFE HISTORY INFORMA'I"ION Adolfson Associates, Inc. 711512004 — 23005-114 page i Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas 1.0 PROJECT AUTHORIZATION AND SCOPE OF WORK At the request of the City of Federal Way Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Department (PARCS), Adolfson Associates, Inc. (Adolfson) prepared this technical report for the proposed Celebration 1 Park Community Center, located in the City of Federal Way, Washington. All rights -of -entry to the subject property for the purpose of conducting this study were granted by the City. This technical report describes environmentally sensitive areas within the vicinity of the proposed Celebration Park Community Center and that are regulated by the City of Federal Way, including: • Wetlands 1 ■ Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas • Frequently Flooded Areas As requested by PARCS, the focus of this report was a study area located in the western third of Celebration Park (described further in the Site Description and Study Area section below). While other wetlands and streams exist within Celebration Park, at the direction of PARCS a portion of a single wetland (Wetland D) was delineated in the field by Adolfson for this report. Adolfson biologists also confirmed the status of two small wetlands, Wetlands V and W, located near the southern border of the park but did not delineate the boundaries of these wetlands. 1 The City of Federal Way also regulates aquifer recharge areas and geologically hazardous areas (FWCC Sections 18-28, 22-1286). Further discussion of such areas is beyond the scope of this report. An analysis of potential impacts to sensitive areas and the development of a mitigation plan for the community center project were also not included in the Scope of Work for this report. J 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION AND STUDY AREA The proposed Celebration Park Community Center site is located within Celebration Park, an approximately 83-acre park owned by the City of Federal Way, Washington. The park is located in Section 17, Township 21 North, Range 4 East, west of Pacific Highway South, north of South 336th Street, and south of a Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) trail right-of-way (Figure 1). Celebration Park lies in the West Branch Hylebos Creek subbasin in the City of Federal Way. Surface water generally moves from north to south across the park site. A number of streams and wetland complexes are located in the park. Dominant land uses in the area surrounding the park include residential and commercial developments and roadways. Two major freeways (SR 99 and I-5) lie east of the park. The eastern portion of Celebration Park contains several sports fields and parking areas, while the western side of the park is largely forested. The study area for this report encompasses the Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 1 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report I J western third of the park (approximately 27 acres), south of the BPA trail and west of the soccer fields (Figure 2). 3.0 METHODS Two levels of investigation were conducted for the analysis of wetlands and wildlife habitat on the subject property: a review of existing information and an on -site investigation. 3.1 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, as well as wildlife habitat. These sources of existing information can only indicate the likelihood of the presence of wetlands; actual wetland determinations must be based upon data obtained from field investigations. Adolfson reviewed several documents for the project, including: • Topographic map, Poverty Bay quadrangle (U.S. Geological Survey, 1981). • Soil Survey of King County Area, Washington (Snyder et al., 1973). • National Wetland Inventory (NWI) map, Poverty Bay quadrangle (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 1987). • Report on the Environmental Conditions and Mitigation Recommendations for Sports Field Complex at Celebration Park, City of Federal Way, King County, Washington (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). • Draft Geotechnical Report, Federal Way Celebration Sports Park, Federal Way, Washington (Landau Associates, 1997). • Report to the Federal Way Hearing Examiner, Federal Way Sports Field Complex, Celebration Park (Federal Way Community Development Department, 1997). • City of Federal Way PHS and Natural Heritage Wildlife Data Map (November 2000). • Priority Habitats and Species data from Washington "State Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) (October 16, 2003). ■ Letter and species list from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) (October 22, 2003). • Washington State Department of Natural Resources - Natural Heritage Program data (WDNR 2003). Adolfson Associates, Inc. 7/15/2004 — 23005-114 page 2 Celebration Park Communitv Center Sensitive Areas --I I 3.2 On -site Investigation Adolfson wetland biologists visited Celebration Park on September 25, 2003. The biologists first walked the entire park site to gain an understanding of overall site conditions, then focused on an examination of wetlands and wildlife habitat within the study area in the western third of the park. 1 3.2.1 Wetland Determination and Delineation Methods Methods defined in the Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (Washington State Department of Ecology, 1997) were used to determine the presence and extent of wetlands on the subject property. The Washington State manual is consistent with the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). Per the request of PARCS, only the western boundary of Wetland D was delineated in the field. Washington state and all local governments must use the state delineation manual to implement the Shoreline Management Act and/or the local regulations adopted pursuant to the Growth Management Act. The methodology outlined in the manual is based upon three essential characteristics of wetlands: (1) hydrophytic vegetation; (2) hydric soils; and (3) wetland hydrology. These three characteristics are described in detail in Appendix A. Field indicators of these three characteristics must all be present in order to make a positive wetland determination unless problem areas or atypical situations are encountered. Adolfson biologists did not encounter problem areas or atypical situations in the area delineated in the field. 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 on data forms (Appendix B). 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. Two data plots were Jestablished in and adjacent to the wetland that was the focus of this study (Wetland D). The wetland boundary on the western side of Wetland D was identified with sequentially - numbered, pink and black striped flagging marked with the flag number and date. Data plot locations were marked with orange flagging. The wetland boundary and data plots were subsequently surveyed by EarthTech. 3.2.2 Assessment of Wetland Functions Wetlands play important roles that provide valuable benefits to the environment and society. Detailed scientific knowledge of wetland functions is limited, so that evaluations of the functions of individual wetlands are qualitative and dependent upon professional judgment. Wetland Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 3 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas -1 functions and the methodology used to assess these functions for a particular wetland area are described in Appendix C. 3.2.3 Wildlife Habitat Assessment The assessment of wildlife habitat was qualitative. Adolfson biologists walked through the study area in the western third of the park and noted habitat features such as vegetation, snags, and downed wood, as well as any wildlife species that could be observed. The plant species and general structure of the vegetation community were noted, and photographs were taken to illustrate typical habitat characteristics on the site (Appendix D). 4.0 FINDINGS The following sections describe the results of the review of existing information and the field investigation conducted by Adolfson scientists, Sara Noland and Linda Krippner, in the Celebration Park study area on September 25, 2003. Please note that common plant names are used throughout this text. The common and scientific names and wetland indicator status for each plant noted are presented in Appendix E. Scientific nomenclature of all plant species encountered follows that of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (1997). Where the scientific names of plant species have been recently changed, former names (synonymies) are included in Appendix E. 4.1 Wetlands J Prior to construction of the sports field complex, Michael P. Williams Consulting (1997) i� described seven wetlands (Wetlands A, B, C, D, E, Y, and Z) and four streams (Streams S-1 through S-4) within the park. The wetlands were generally described as palustrine forested with palustrine scrub -shrub and open water components. Three additional small wetlands (Wetlands V, W, and X) were identified by Parametrix in 1995 (Michael P. Williams Consulting 1997, Appendix A). Construction of the sports field complex at Celebration Park required filling approximately —� 0.7 acre of wetland (including all of Wetlands B, E, and Y) and 12.5 acres of stream buffer and wetland buffer. One stream (S-1) was routed into a culvert and another (S-2) was relocated. The development of park facilities was concentrated in the eastern portion of the park, leaving the larger wetlands in the western, forested portion generally intact. _j As mitigation for these impacts, the City enhanced approximately 14.4 acres of upland/riparian areas, enhanced 4.0 acres of wetland buffer, and created 2.2 acres of new wetland (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). One of the new wetland areas, designated as Wetland M-2, was designed to provide a series of pools on terraces stepping down the slope between Wetlands C and D. The mitigation included removing invasive species and planting a variety of woody and herbaceous native species within wetlands and wetland buffers. Adollson Associates, Inc. 711512004 — 23005-114 page 4 ICelebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report I In addition, the City created several bioswales to receive runoff from the sports fields, roads, and other areas. Some of the bioswales were designed to discharge to adjacent wetlands, while others direct discharge into a culvert a 9th Avenue South (City of Federal Way PARCS, 1997). Mitigation areas and sports complex facilities are described in the Report on the Environmental l Conditions and Mitigation Recommendations for Sports Field Complex at Celebration Park, J City of Federal Way, King County, Washington (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). Adolfson did not verify whether all aspects of the mitigation plan have been implemented as 1 proposed nor evaluate the success of mitigation areas. 1 The following section summarizes previous studies on the general conditions, hydrology, soils, 1 vegetation, classification and buffer of Wetland D. Conditions observed by Adolfson biologists during the September 2003 site visit are also provided. Wetlands V and W are then briefly described. 4.1.1 Wetland D 4.1.1.1 Location and Settin Wetland D lies within the forested western portion of Celebration Park (Figures 2 and 3). Based on a previous delineation by Parametrix, the wetland is approximately 1.16 acres in size (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). The Composite Site Plan map (Bruce Dees & Associates, 1997) shows a narrow ravine at the northwestern corner of Wetland D widening into a bowl -like depression to the southeast; this is consistent with the topography observed by Adolfson biologists in 2003. Based on observations by Adolfson biologists in 2003 and previous studies, Wetland D would be considered a palustrine forested wetland with an open water component (Photo 1 in j Appendix D). Because of extended dry conditions prior to and during the September 2003 field j delineation, changes in vegetation communities corresponding to a topographic break between the depressional wetland area and the surrounding upland slopes were particularly important in delineating the western boundary of Wetland D. As stated earlier, Adolfson recorded two data plots to characterize typical wetland and upland conditions; data forms are included in Appendix B. Adolfson delineated the western border of Wetland D during the September 2003 site visit; this boundary was subsequently surveyed by EarthTech (Figure 3). J 4.1.1.2 Hydrolog Evidence of wetland hydrology within Wetland D observed by Adolfson biologists in September 2003 included matted leaves that appeared to have been deposited or affected by ponded water j (see data form for DP -I, Appendix B). Soil within the data plot was dry to 16 inches deep at that -� time. An area of open water created by seasonal ponding within Wetland D has been reported by previous observers (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997) but was not observed by Adolfson biologists during the September 2003 field delineation, perhaps due to extremely dry conditions Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 5 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas of the preceding summer. During a subsequent reconnaissance visit on October 26, 2003, following a period of heavy rains, Sara Noland of Adolfson observed standing water within Wetland D, confirming the previous reports of seasonal ponding. Sources of hydrology for Wetland D have been recorded in previous studies. According to a drainage plan map prepared by PARCS in 1997, Wetland D is part of a stream/wetland complex that runs north/south across the western portion of the park. The drainage plan map shows Stream S-4 beginning near the northern boundary of the park and flowing south, collecting drainage from one of the constructed bioswales before emptying into the northwestern lobe of Wetland C. Adolfson biologists observed a riprap channel connecting Wetland C to Wetland M-2; the channel passes underneath a pedestrian bridge. Water is shown on the drainage plan map moving from Wetland M-2 into Wetland D. Prior to implementation of the sports fields and associated wetland mitigation, water levels in 1 Wetland D were reported to fluctuate greatly, flooding to a depth of 10 or 11 feet and then draining rapidly (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). Part of the mitigation plan involved installing an overflow outlet on the southern edge of Wetland D to reduce water level fluctuations in the wetland. According to the SEPA Checklist for the sports field complex (City of Federal Way PARCS, 1997), a pipe carries water from the outlet of Wetland D south into the culvert at 9th Street. 4.1.1.3 SoilS The King County Soil Survey maps the soils within Celebration Park as Everett-Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6 to 15 percent slopes (Snyder, et al. 1973). Runoff is slow to medium, and the erosion hazard is slight to moderate. West of the park is an area of Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 15 to 30 percent slopes, which has medium runoff and a severe erosion hazard. Both of these soil types are part of the Alderwood association, which consists of moderately well drained soils with a dense, very slowly permeable layer of glacial till at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Small areas of poorly drained Bellingham, Seattle, Norma and Tukwila soils may be present within these mapped soil areas. The potential for peat soils to exist within and near the onsite wetlands has also been reported (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). Landau Associates (1997) performed a geotechnical assessment of the park prior to development l of the sports field complex. They reported glacial till overlain by recessional outwash, and they observed areas of fill ranging from 2 feet to over 15 feet thick. Soils observed by Adolfson during the September 2003 field investigation of Wetland D were consistent with soil types mapped in the King County Soil Survey. Soil within the wetland data plot (DP-1) was black (10YR 2/1) gravelly silt loam from zero to 16 inches depth. A chroma of 1 is considered an indicator of hydric soil conditions. 4.1.1.4 Vegetation Dominant plant species within the wetland data plot (DP-1) for Wetland D included black cottonwood, willow, and Douglas spiraea, all of which are facultative (FAC) or wetter (Photo 1 Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 6 711512004 — 23005-114 _J 1 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report in Appendix D). Other shrub species observed within the wetland included red -osier dogwood (FACW) and salmonberry (FAC+). 4.1.1.5 Wetland Functions and Values 1 As stated earlier, Wetland D is part of a stream/wetland system that runs north/south across the J western portion of the park and includes Wetlands C, D, and M-2 (City of Federal Way PARCS, 1997). Therefore, these three wetlands are treated here as a single unit for purposes of assessing 1 wetland functions. Most of the wetland functions assessed receive rankings of moderate to high, including water - related functions (floodwater and stormwater control, base flow and groundwater support, water quality improvement) and habitat -related functions (natural biological support, overall habitat functions). Several key characteristics of this wetland system lead to these moderate to high rankings: • The wetland system has a high percentage of forested cover and a depressional topography, both characteristics that provide for the retention and filtration of runoff within the wetland. This function is further enhanced by the presence of a control structure at the outlet of Wetland D. The wetland system is located in the upper to middle portion of the West Branch Hylebos Creek drainage basin, and the area surrounding the park is heavily developed; therefore, the wetland system has ample opportunity to both receive polluted runoff from developed areas and to slow and filter that runoff before it reaches downstream areas. • In terms of habitat, this wetland system has a diverse vegetation structure, with three strata: a tree canopy, understory shrubs, and emergent species. The wetland system and its buffer contain habitat features such as snags and downed wood, and they have not been heavily disturbed. Celebration Park provides an area of refuge for wildlife species within an urbanizing area, as illustrated in the aerial ' photograph in Figure 2. In addition, this wetland system provides cultural and educational opportunities because of its location in a public park and presence of nearby trails. A description of the functions assessment methods and the data forms used to score functions in the Wetland C/D/M-2 complex are included in Appendix C. 4.1.1.6 U landlBuffer Conditions Adolfson biologists observed soil within the upland data plot (DP-2) was dark brown`-(l OYR 3/3) j gravelly sandy loam from zero to 3 inches depth, changing to very dark grayish brown (10YR J 3/2) gravelly sandy loam from 3 to 16 inches deep. No redoximorphic features (mottles) were observed. The upland data plot (DP-2) met the criteria for hydrophytic vegetation, with dominant plants including black cottonwood, red alder, and salmonberry. However, dense areas of salal (FACU) were present in the upland, along with traces of other upland species such as sword fern and Ado 'son Associates, Inc. 711512004 — 23005-114 page 7 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report J huckleberry. Along the western boundary of Wetland D, the salal-dominated vegetation community changed abruptly to a salmonberry or dogwood -dominated community along a line that generally matched the topographic break between the upland slope and the depressional wetland area. The buffer surrounding Wetland D is generally well vegetated, especially along the western and northern sides of the wetland, which are forested (Photo 2 in Appendix D). One of the wetland mitigation areas wraps around the eastern corner of Wetland D, providing a buffer between the wetland and the soccer fields to the east. Adolfson biologists did note an informal trail running through the southeastern portion of the Wetland D buffer, along the top of the slope. The trail becomes blocked by shrubby vegetation as it approaches the northeast corner of Wetland D. 4.1.2 Wetlands V and W At the request of PARCS and as part of the overall site reconnaissance on September 25, 2003, Adolfson biologists observed conditions in Wetlands V and W located near the southern boundary of the park (Figure 3). These wetlands had been previously delineated by Parametrix in 1995 and are each 0.06 acre in size (Appendix A of Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). Adolfson biologists observed these wetlands to be shallow depressions dominated by Douglas spiraea, cottonwood, and red alder. Adolfson did not redelineate the boundaries of these two wetlands. 4.2 Wildlife and Habitats This section first presents an overview of the type of wildlife habitat present in the study area, as well as species observed in the study area by Adolfson biologists and those documented as occurring in Celebration Park during previous studies. Sensitive species and habitats designated by federal, state, and local agencies that may occur in the study area are then discussed. This report addresses terrestrial wildlife species and their habitats. It does not address fish species or fish habitats that may be present within Celebration Park or areas downstream. 4.2.1 Previous Wildlife Studies at Celebration Park Prior to construction of the sports fields, surveys for wildlife were performed on the Celebration Park site (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). These previous surveys documented over 40 species of birds, including 27 nesting species and numerous neotropical migrants. Several raptors were observed, including great horned owl, red-tailed hawk, Cooper's hawk, and northern harrier, and the park was considered to contain potential raptor nesting habitat though no raptor nests were documented. At that time, Wetland D was believed to serve as a foraging area for a great horned owl that was observed in the wetland on several occasions. Garter snakes and opossums were also recorded in 1997. Habitat conditions in the park have changed since the surveys conducted in 1997 because of the construction of park facilities and mitigation areas. However, this previous information provides Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 8 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas an indication of other wildlife species that may occur within the park and is included here to supplement the observations recorded by Adolfson staff during the one -day site visit in September 2003 (discussed below). l 4.2.2 Habitat Features and Species Observed in the Study Area during 2003 Adolfson biologists observed that the study area in the western third of Celebration Park contains a forest of mixed deciduous and coniferous trees with a dense shrub understory, abundant downed wood, and minimal invasion by exotic plant species (Photos 2 and 3). Wetland areas tend to be dominated by deciduous trees (Photos 1 and 4), while conifers dominate many upland forest areas (Photo 3). With the exception of pedestrian trails and one small burned area, the forest appears to have experienced relatively little recent human disturbance based on observations during the 2003 site visit. Dominant tree species of the upland forest observed by Adolfson biologists in 2003 included black cottonwood, Douglas fir, western red cedar, and some western hemlock. The conifers are of mixed age; there are numerous small cedars in the shrub stratum. Numerous trees observed by Adolfson in the study area would qualify as "significant trees" under FWCC 22-1 based on their size, condition, and species. Adolfson biologists observed dense salal in the forest understory, along with sword fern and occasional trailing blackberry, salmonberry, and huckleberry. Isolated occurrences of English holly and English ivy were also noted. A list of plants observed in the study area is included in Appendix E. Individual conifers as old as 100 to 200 years and very large cottonwoods were previously reported within the park by Michael P. Williams Consulting (1997) but were not observed by Adolfson staff in 2003. Along with downed wood, the upland forest contains snags that would provide habitat for cavity - nesting species such as woodpeckers. In September 2003, Adolfson staff observed a pileated woodpecker (state candidate species) excavating a standing tree in the upland forest within the study area. Other bird species either directly observed or identified by song during 2003 in the upland forest included song sparrow, black -capped chickadee, American robin, Bewick's wren, Steller's jay, and spotted towhee. A red-tailed hawk was also observed on the southern fringe of the study area, flying over Wetlands V and W. ' Mountain beaver excavations were abundant on the slope west of Wetland D. Adolfson staff l observed one red -legged frog within a ponded area in one of the bioswales. J 4.2.3 Special -Status Species and Habitats 1 Special -status wildlife species include species designated by federal or state government agencies (USFWS and WDFW) as endangered, threatened, proposed, candidate, species of concern, sensitive, and monitor species, as well as species of local importance in King County. Up to 20 special -status wildlife species may occur in the park based on their habitat requirements. Of these potentially occurring species, up to five have been documented as occurring in Celebration Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 9 711512004 — 23005-114 i Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Park, while three others have documented nestingibreeding areas within one to three miles of the park. Each of these species is discussed in the following section. The USFWS has indicated that it is no longer providing lists of special -status species for specific project sites due to workload and budget constraints. Therefore, the species list provided by 1 USFWS for the Celebration Park project (Appendix F) includes all federally designated species within King County. This list includes some species that would not be expected to occur in an urbanizing area such as the City of Federal Way due to their limited range or specific habitat requirements; these species are discussed briefly in Appendix F. Terrestrial species included in the USFWS letter that may occur in or near the park are discussed in the following section. In addition to these federally designated species, WDFW considers certain habitat types to be ' priority habitat areas, including heron rookeries, large concentrations of waterfowl, and large concentrations of breeding or communally roosting bats. No large bat colonies are known to exist near Celebration Park (WDFW, 2003). Lakes located one to two miles to the north, east, and southeast of Celebration Park support regular, large concentrations of waterfowl ()A7DFW, 2003). The nearest documented green/blue heron breeding areas are located approximately three miles northwest and three miles east of the park (City of Federal Way, 2000). The Washington Natural Heritage Program has not identified endangered, threatened, or sensitive plants or high quality ecosystems in the project vicinity (WDNR, 2003). 4.2.3.1 Common Breeders and Resident 5 eeies ' The bald eagle is listed as a federal and state threatened species. Bald eagles are both residents in and migrants through the Puget Sound region. Eagle populations are usually highest in the region in the winter months when both resident birds and winter migrants are present due to the mild winter climate and abundant fall salmon runs (Stinson et al., 2001). Bald eagles generally perch, roost, and build nests in mature trees near water bodies and available prey, usually away from intense human activity. They prey on a variety of foods including fish, birds, mammals, carrion, and invertebrates. In the Puget Sound region birds and fish are generally the most j common food for eagles (Stinson et al., 2001). Bald eagles typically return to one of several nests located within an established nesting territory (Stalmaster, 1987). Their seasonal home range for foraging and nesting averages 2.4 square miles in this region (Stinson et al., 2001). A bald eagle nest is located approximately 2 miles northwest of Celebration Park (WDFW, 2003). No bald eagle nests are known to occur within the park, although foraging and potential nesting habitat does exist in the park. The pileated woodpecker is a state candidate species. It excavates cavities in tree snags or live trees with dead wood at least 20 inches diameter at breast height (dbh) for roost and nest sites (Rodrick and Milner, 1991). Locating specific nest sites from year to year is difficult because the woodpeckers do not usually return to the same nest tree in successive years. Pileated woodpeckers forage on insects in snags (>10 inches dbh), logs (>7 inches dbh), and stumps, primarily in forests more than 40 years old. They also forage in riparian hardwoods and immature forest stands (Rodrick and Milner, 1991). Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 10 711512004 — 23005-114 J �l Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Adolfson staff observed a pileated woodpecker excavating a standing tree in upland forest in the study area during September 2003. Foraging habitat and potential nesting habitat for pileated woodpeckers occurs within the forested upland and wetland portions of the park. Pileated woodpecker foraging sign was present on alder and conifer snags in upland and wetland forested areas, and there was an abundant supply of forage trees throughout the wetlands in the study area. The Vaux's swift is a state candidate species that may be found foraging on flying insects in forested areas and over open water habitats. Vaux's swifts usually nest in large, dead snags and sometimes in chimneys. Vaux's swift is likely to forage in the park; however, nesting habitat may be limited due to the small size of snags in forested wetland and upland forest habitats. 1 The olive -sided flycatcher (federal species of concern) utilizes coniferous forests with standing 1 dead trees. They feed primarily on flying insects. (USFWS 2001) Within Celebration Park, the species is most likely to occur within the complex of wetland areas, which would provide abundant insects for foraging. The purple martin is a state candidate species. Purple martins forage on flying insects, and they 1 nest in colonies in natural cavities or woodpecker holes in tall dead trees, in pilings, and in constructed nest boxes (Terres, 1995). They may nest or forage in the park; however, the nearest documented nesting area is located approximately three miles southwest of the park on Commencement Bay (City of Federal Way, 2000). The merlin is a state candidate species. Though they are rare in Washington State, merlins have i been sighted in the Puget Sound region, most commonly in winter (Hunn, 1982; Smith et al., 1 1997). The merlin is a falcon that nests in tree cavities and in the old nests of crow, raven, hawk, etc. (Smith et al., 1997). They forage on a variety of bird, mammal, reptile, amphibian, and insect species (Terres, 1995). They may nest or forage in the park; however, no known nest sites have been recorded in or adjacent to the park by WDFW (2003). The great blue heron, a state monitor species, is a relatively common sight foraging in wetlands and along shorelines in the Puget Sound region. The wetlands in the park provide foraging J opportunities for great blue herons, and the species was observed in the park during previous bird surveys (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). The green heron is also a state monitor species that feeds on small fish and invertebrates in shoreline areas. It is a colony nester, building nests near the shoreline in shrubs or trees (Terres, 1995). Potential nesting and foraging habitat for green herons is present in wetland habitats in the park, though prey for these birds is not abundant here. The nearest documented heron breeding areas are approximately three miles i away from the park (City of Federal Way, 2000). J The osprey is a state monitor species. Ospreys forage nearly exclusively on fish and are closely associated with open water habitats. They nest on trees, on utility poles, or on constructed Jplatforms near water (Terres, 1995). Although foraging opportunities for ospreys may be present within wetlands in the park and in nearby water bodies, they are more likely to nest and forage near water bodies with more abundant fish populations. No nests or other occurrences of this species have been recorded by WDFW in the vicinity of the park (WDFW, 2003). Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 11 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas King County considers the red-tailed hawk to be a species of local importance. Red-tailed hawks prefer a mix of forest and open grassland habitats. This species builds nests near the top of tall trees and forages in open meadows. Foraging habitat for red-tailed hawks is found in upland forest and forested wetland habitats throughout the park. Red-tailed hawks were observed flying over the park during previous wildlife surveys (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997), and Adolfson biologists observed a red-tailed hawk flying over Wetlands V and W in ' 2003. While the large deciduous and coniferous trees on the site provide potential nest sites for 1 red-tailed hawks, no red-tailed hawk nests were observed in the study area during the 2003 field survey or previous bird surveys in 1997 (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). Long-eared myotis and long-legged myotis are state monitor species and federal species of concern. These bats forage on insects in a variety of habitat types, although they are commonly sighted foraging over forest openings and open water. These bats roost beneath tree bark, in buildings, caves, or mines (Christy and West, 1993). According to Bats Northwest (2000), these species are likely to be found in this region. Foraging habitat is found throughout the park, and potential roost sites are found in upland forest and forested wetland habitats in the park. Wildlife surveys in 1997 recorded the long-eared myotis as either observed or having high potential for occurrence in the park (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). 4.2.3.2 Migrants, Rare. or Extirpated SAecies The Oregon spotted frog is a state endangered and federal candidate species. Prior to European settlement, this frog was not abundant in the central Puget Sound Central region, and it has not been observed in this region in recent years (Richter and Azous, 2000). Only three populations are known to exist in Washington: one in the south Puget Sound lowlands and two in the Cascade Mountain range in south-central Washington. These frogs are pond -dwelling species that breed in emergent wetland vegetation (Leonard et al., 1993). Although open water and emergent wetland habitat for the Oregon spotted frog exists in Celebration Park, the species is not likely to be found here due to this frog's low pre -settlement presence and subsequent decline in this region. r The peregrine falcon is a state endangered species that forages on waterfowl and other birds. Peregrines typically nest on cliffs and on tall buildings, such as the Washington Mutual Tower in downtown Seattle. They feed primarily on rock doves, songbirds, shorebirds, and waterfowl (Terres, 1995; Hays and Milner, 1999). Large waterfowl concentrations are located on the lakes north and east of Celebration Park; however, no peregrine breeding occurrences have been recorded in the park by WDFW (2003) and nesting habitat is not present in the park. 1 The western pond turtle is a state endangered species. In Washington State, only two natural populations remain in the Columbia River Gorge, and western pond turtles have recently been reintroduced at one small pond complex in Pierce County. They are still relatively abundant in undisturbed pond habitats in northern California and southern Oregon (Hays et al., 1999). Although habitat for this species exists at the park, it is unlikely to be found due to its rarity in J this region. This species is not known to exist in Celebration Park (WDFW, 2003). Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 12 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report 1 Keen's myotis is a state candidate species. The Keen's myotis has the smallest geographic range of any bat in North America, ranging from northwest Washington and western British Columbia ^� into Alaska. This bat is associated with forested areas and roosts in tree cavities and cliff crevices. Though not a common bat, this species is listed as being present in the Puget Sound region by Bats Northwest (2000). Roosting and foraging habitat for this species exists in upland 1 forest and forested wetlands in the park; however there have been no documented occurrences of the species here (WDFW, 2003). 1 The western toad is a state candidate species and federal species of concern that is no longer common in the lowlands of western Washington (Leonard et. al, 1993). Amphibian monitoring studies conducted from 1987 through 1995 as part of the Puget Sound Wetlands and Stormwater lManagement Program found four out of 19 wetlands with western toads in King and Snohomish Counties. No western toads were sighted after 1989 in these ongoing monitoring studies, -1 indicating that this species is in decline in this region (Richter and Azous, 2000). Western toads, if any remain in Celebration Park, would most likely be found near wetlands with seasonal or permanent ponds. Wildlife surveys in 1997 recorded western toads as either observed or having high potential for occurrence in the park (Michael P. Williams Consulting, 1997). The yellow -billed cuckoo (federal and state candidate species) breeds in large blocks of riparian woodlands, particularly those including cottonwoods and willows, and feeds on insects. The species overwinters in South America and was once locally common in the Puget Sound lowlands. While some of the forested wetland areas in Celebration Park might provide suitable habitat for the species, the yellow -billed cuckoo may now be extirpated in Washington State and thus would be unlikely to occur in the park. (USFWS, 2001.) 4.2.3.3 Special -Status Plants Stalked moonwort is a small, perennial plant in the grape fern family and is a federal species of concern. In Washington it occurs in moist meadows, swales, and roadsides. (Vanderhorst, 1997.) Tall bugbane, another plant that is a federal species of concern, generally grows in or along the margins of mixed, mature or old growth stands of mesic coniferous forest, or mixed coniferous -deciduous forest (Washington Natural Heritage Program, 1998). While it is possible that habitat for these species may be present in Celebration Park, these species are not —� documented to occur within the park or vicinity (WDNR, 2003) and they are considered rare. 4.2.3.4 Habitats and Species of Local Importance The City of Federal Way has not designated any habitats or species of local importance (Fewins, personal communication). The previous sections address sensitive species and potential habitats J for such species that may occur within the park or vicinity. 5.0 REGULATORY CONTEXT Environmentally sensitive areas are regulated at the local, state, and federal level. Agencies with jurisdiction include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Washington State Department of Ecology, Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, and City of Federal Way. Regulatory implications associated with development in such areas include, but may not be Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 13 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report limited to, those discussed in this section. All applicable permits should be obtained prior to developing or otherwise altering sensitive areas. 5.1 Wetlands 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 l (Washington State Department of Ecology, 1994). J Wetlands are formally defined by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Federal Register 1982), the 1 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (Federal Register 1986), the Washington Shoreline J Management Act (1971), and the Washington State Growth Management Act (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 Shoreline Management Act and the Growth Management Act 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. The U.S. Army Corps g Co s 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 may be 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 l practicable, and mitigation will likely be required for unavoidable wetland impacts. J 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 J 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 J Adol'son Associates, Inc. page 14 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report I J 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. At the local level, wetlands in the City of Federal Way are regulated under various sections of the Federal Way City Code (FWCC), including: • Section 18-28 defines what constitutes a wetland. • Section 22-1 describes the categories of wetlands regulated by the City. • Sections 22-1356 through 22-1359 give standard buffer widths for regulated wetlands, describe allowed modifications to buffers, and list mitigation ratios for wetland impacts. The 1997 report by Michael P. Williams Consulting listed Wetland D as a Category III wetland. Based on the 2003 observations by Adolfson biologists, however, Wetland D would be considered a Category I wetland because it contains mature forest (FWCC Section 12-1357). Category I wetlands require a 200-foot buffer (FWCC Section 22-1357). Based on field observations by Adolfson in September 2003, Wetlands V and W would be considered Category III wetlands requiring a 25-foot buffer (FWCC Section 22-1357). 5.2 Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Areas FWCC Section 18-28 defines fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas to include (among others): • Areas with which endangered, threatened, and sensitive species have a primary association; • Habitats and species of local importance; • Naturally occurring ponds under 20 acres and their submerged aquatic beds that provide fish or wildlife habitat; • Waters of the state; and • Streams. 5.3 Frequently Flooded Areas FWCC Section 18-28 defines frequently flooded areas as lands in the floodplain subject to a one percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year. The City has not mapped frequently flooded areas, and Celebration Park is outside of the 500-year floodplain according to Flood Insurance Rate Maps (Harris, personal communication). Adolfson Associates, Inc. page 15 711512004 — 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report 6.0 LIMITATIONS It should be recognized that the delineation of wetland boundaries and functions and values assessments are inexact sciences; wetland professionals may disagree on the precise location of 1 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. J 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' best professional judgment, based upon information provided by the project proponent in addition to that obtained during the course of this study. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made. 7.0 REFERENCES Almack, J.A. and S.H. Fitkin. 1998. Grizzly Bear and Gray Wolf Investigations in Washington State 1994-1995: Final Progress Report.

Recent is intended to mean that period of time since legal jurisdiction of an applicable law began. best management practices (BMP'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. 1 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. -j 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 Glossary--1 711512004 - 23005-114 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas 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. 1 inundation — a condition in which water from any source temporarily or permanently covers a 1 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. Adolfson Associates, Inc. page Glossary--2 711512004 — 23005-114 -1 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report -1 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 l floodplain on applicable local Flood Management Program maps. 1 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 Glossary--3 711512004 — 23005-114 i Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas 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 1 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 1 parts per thousand ocean -derived salts) areas that are contained within a channel and which are 1 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. 1 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. Jwetland boundary — the point on the ground at which a shift from wetlands to nonwetlands 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: J■ Obligate (OBL): species that almost always occur wetlands under natural conditions (estimated probability >99%). Adolfson Associates, Inc. page Glossary-4 711512004 — 23005-114 1 J ICelebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report • 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%). s Facultative upland (FACU): species that usually occur in non -wetlands (estimated probability 67 to 99%), but are occasionally found in wetlands. 1 • 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 1 conditions.

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 1 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. 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). 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. Hydric 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 Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS), in cooperation with the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils, has compiled lists of hydric soils (SCS, 1991). 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 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 (USDA, 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) (USDA, 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, 1 OYR 2/2) as identified on a Munsell soil color chart (Munsell Color, 2000). Soil color is determined from a moist soil sample. Wetland 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 jseason (typically two weeks in lowland Pacific Northwest areas). Areas which are inundated or saturated for between 5 and 12.5 percent of the growing season in most years, may or may not be .I J Adolfson Associates, Inc. Appendix A -I 711512004 — 23005-11 J Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report 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 �j local soil survey data. Where positive indicators of wetland hydrology are observed, it is J assumed that wetland hydrology occurs for a sufficient period of the growing season to meet the wetland criteria, as described by Ecology (1997). 7 I I I I I I j j Adol son Associates, Inc. 7115/2004 — 23005-11 Appendix A-2 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report 11 I I I J I I I j j APPENDIX B: WETLAND DETERMINATION DATA FORMS Adolfson Associates, Inc. 711512004 — 23005-11 Appendix B DATA FORM 1 Routine Wetland Determination (WA State Wetland Delineation Manual or 1987 Corps Wetland Delineation IVlanuat) Project Site: �!�`.� �� � l` g �•�- Date: c► I2_5t 03 Applicant/Owner:TrA r,•vt('`'�- i 4 S County: �� State: WAr Investi ator(s): '. ��v+ Q �-fi r► 5 e 1 J CIa Alta( S/T/R: Do normal circumstances exist on the site?

Flood and stormwater control refers to a wetland's ability to reduce or modify potentially damaging effects of storm and flood flows. This function is evaluated according to such parameters as size and category of wetland; type of outlet, amount of forested cover; and position in the drainage. Baseflow and groundwater support is defined as "...the role which a specific wetland area plays in maintaining the stability and environmental integrity of the entire system to which it is physically and functionally related" (Reppert et al., 1979). This function is evaluated according to parameters such as size and location of the wetland; proximity to other palustrine, riverine, or lacustrine systems; hydroperiod; and presence of flow -sensitive fish. Erosion and shoreline protection refers to a wetland's ability to mitigate the effects of wave effects and storm damage, and thus increase shoreline stability and limit erosion. This function is evaluated according to such features as type, structure, and density of vegetation; width of the B vegetative area and buffering capacity; and amount of development in the sub -catchment (see J glossary). J IAdolfson Associates, Inc. Appendix C-1 711512004 — 23005-11 J Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas Report Water quality improvement refers to a wetland's ability to purify water through a variety of physical, biological, and chemical processes. This function is evaluated according to such j characteristics as size and type of wetland; nature and density of vegetation; hydroperiod; and proximity to pollution sources. Natural biological support refers to a wetland's ability to provide habitats for a diversity of species. This function is evaluated according to such parameters as type, diversity, and amount of vegetation; proximity to other habitats; prevalence of invasive species; amount of organic accumulation and export; type, diversity, size, and amount of habitat features, width of buffer; and connectivity to other habitats. Overall habitat function refers to the likelihood of the presence of uncommon plant communities or associations of rare animal species. This function is evaluated according to characteristics of size, amount of habitat diversity, and the presence or absence of a wildlife refuge or sanctuary. Specific habitat function evaluates the wetland's capacity to provide habitat for invertebrates, amphibians, fish, mammals, and birds. This function is evaluated by parameters which include presence of surface water, connectivity to other aquatic features, diversity of vegetative communities, and proximity to other habitats. Cultural and socioeconomic characteristics, based upon the value of the wetland to humans, are evaluated by assessing parameters including opportunities for education or recreation, aesthetic value, presence of commercially valuable natural resources, historical or archaeological value, and proximity to open space. 1 Wetlands in this report are rated LOW, MODERATE, or HIGH for each wetland function. For the purposes of the assessment, each function is assigned a maximum total of points based upon the number of criteria used in the evaluation. The ratings of LOW, MODERATE, or HIGH correspond to the low, middle and higher third of the point scale for each function, respectively. For example, the highest possible points for the water quality improvement function is 12. Therefore for this function a score of four to six is LOW, a score of seven to nine is MODERATE, and a score of 10 to 12 is HIGH. 2Adolfson Associates, Inc.

Several of these species are not likely to be present in Celebration Park because their specific habitat requirements are lacking in the park. These species are described below. Please note that this appendix addresses only terrestrial species, not any fish species that are included in the USFWS letter. Canada lynx occurs in the higher parts of the Cascades, the Blue Mountains, and the mountains of northeastern Washington (Ingles, 1965). The gray wolf and grizzly bear are wide-ranging species that are found in critically small numbers in Washington, and most reliable observations are from the North Cascades (Almack and Fitkin, 1998; WDFW, 1999). Marbled murrelets are year-round residents on coastal waters, and they nest and roost in mature and old -growth forest where preferred nest sites are large flat conifer branches ranging from 4 to 25 inches in diameter (WDW, 1991). The northern spotted owl nests and roosts in mature/old growth coniferous forests with high canopy closure, a multi -layered, multi -species canopy dominated by large (>30 inches diameter at breast height) trees, tree deformities such as cavities and broken tops, large snags, woody debris, and space for flying below the canopy (USFWS, 1990). Marsh sandwort is currently known to occur on only two sites in San Luis Obispo County, California. The preferred habitat is freshwater marshes with saturated, acidic bog soils (NatureServe, 2003). Golden paintbrush occurs in native grassland habitats (NatureServe, 2003). ' Beller's ground beetle and Hatch's click beetle are inhabitants of sphagnum bogs (Pacific Biodiversity Institute, no date). The California wolverine inhabits tundra, boreal forests, and mountainous areas (USFWS 2003). The Cascades frog lives in montane areas above 800 meters elevation, while the Larch mountain salamander inhabits talus slopes in the Columbia River Gorge and central Cascades J (Blaustein et al., 1995). The northern goshawk nests in old -growth forests and forages within or on the forest edge (WDFW nd). Adolfson Associates, Inc. Appendix F-1 711512004 - 23005-114 1 Celebration Park Community Center Sensitive Areas 1 Northern sea otters occur in shallow coastal areas (The Marine Mammal Center, 2002). Pacific fishers require forests with specific characteristics (canopy closure, multiple canopies, shrubs, large diameter trees, large snags) and avoid large openings (Lewis and Stinson, 1998). �j The Pacific Townsend's big -eared bat forms colonies in mines, caves, and abandoned buildings and is sensitive to human disturbance (Bat Conservation International, 2002). 1 The tailed frog breeds and rears in fast-moving, small forest streams with clear, cold water and little silt (CACB n.d.). The valley silverspot butterfly lives in open prairies, tundra, and subalpine glades (Pyle, 1989). White -top aster is a plant associated with prairies (Clampitt, 1993). 1 I I j j I 1 I J Adolfson Associates, Inc. 711512004 — 23005-114 Appendix F-2 j ❑ P¢i�g��Y ❑s ry �rn y q 111 a ,a United States Department of the Interior FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE.

Any Federal agency, currently or in the future, that provides funding, permitting, licensing, or other authorization for this project must assure that its responsibilities under section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act), are met. Attachment B outlines the responsibilities of Federal agencies for consulting or conferencing with us. If both listed and proposed species occur in the vicinity of a project that meets the requirements of a major Federal action (i.e., "major construction activity"), impacts to both listed and proposed species must be considered in a biological assessment (BA) (section 7(c); see Attachment B). Although the Federal agency is not required, under section 7(c), to address impacts to proposed species if listed species are not lmown to occur in the project area, it maybe in the Federal agency's best interest to address impacts to proposed species. The listing process maybe completed within a year, and information gathered on a proposed species could be used to address consultation needs should the species be listed. However, if the proposed action is likely to jeopardize the continued existence of 'a proposed species, or result in the destruction or adverse modification of proposed critical habitat, a formal conference with us is required by the Act (section 7(a)(4)). The results of the BA will determine if conferencing is required. The Federal agency is responsible for making a determination of the effects afthe project on listed species and/or critical habitat. For a Federal agency determination that a listed species or critical habitat is lilcely to be affected (adversely or beneficially) by the project, you should request section 7 consultation -through this office. For a "not likely to adversely affect" determination, you should - request our concurrence through the informal consultation process. Candidate species and species of concern are those species whose conservation status is of concern to us, but for which additional information is needed. Candidate species are included as an advance notice to Federal agencies of species that may be proposed and listed in the future. Conservation measures for candidate species and species of concern are voluntary but recommended. Protection provided to these species now may preclude possible listing in the future. `J at ma occur in the vicinity of our project, contact the National For other federallyltsted species that y tY Y p ] � Marine Fisheries Service (NOAAFisheries) at (360) 753-9530 to request a list ofspecles under their .

J ATTACHMENT B FEDERAL AGENCIES' RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER SECTIONS 7(n) AND 7(c) OF THE ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT OF 1973, AS AMENDED SECTION 7(a) - Consultation/Conference Requires: 1. Federal agencies to utilize their authorities to carry out programs to conserve endangered and threatened species; 2. Consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) when a Federal action may affect a listed endangered or threatened species to ensure that any action authorized, funded, or carried out by a Federal agency is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of listed species or result in the -destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat. The process is initiated by the Federal agency after it has determined if its action may affect (adversely or beneficially) a listed species; and 3. Conference with the FWS when a Federal action is Rely to jeopardize the continued existence of a proposed species or result in destruction or an adverse modification of proposed critical habitat. SECTION 7 c - Biological Assessment for Constru-c 'on Projects Requires Federal agencies or their designees to prepare a Biological Assessment (BA) for construction projects only. The purpose of the BA is to identify any proposed and/or listed species that is/are likely to be affected by a construction project. The process is initiated by a Federal agency in requesting a list of proposed and listed threatened and endangered species (list attached). The BA should be completed within 180 days after its initiation (or within such a time period as is mutually agreeable). If the BA is not initiated within 90 days of receipt of the species list, please verify the accuracy of the list with the Service. No irreversible commitment of resources is to be made during the BA process which would result in violation of the requirements under Section 7(a) of the Act. Planning, design, and administrative actions may be taken; however, no construction may begin. To complete the BA, your agency or its designee should (1) conduct an onsite inspection of the area to be affected by the proposal, which may include a detailed survey of the area to determine if the species is present and whether suitable habitat exists for either expanding the existing population or potential reintroduction of the species; (2) review literature and scientific data to determine species distribution, habitat needs, and other biological requirements; (3) interview experts including those within the FWS, National Marine Fisheries Service, state conservation department, universities, and others who may have data not yet published in scientific literature; (4) review and analyze the effects of the proposal on the species in terms of individuals and populations, including consideration of cumulative effects of the proposal on the species and its habitat; (5) analyze alternative actions that may provide conservation measures; and (6) prepare a report documenting the results, including a discussion of study methods used, any problems encountered, and other relevant information. Upon completion, the report should be forwarded to our Endangered Species Division, 510 Desmond Drive SE, Suite 102, Lacey, WA 98503-1273. "Construction project" means any major Federal action which significantly affects the quality of the human environment (requiring an EIS), designed primarily to result in the building or erection of human -made structures such as dams, buildings, roads, pipelines, channels, and the like. This includes Federal action such as permits, grants, licenses, or other forms of Federal authorization or approval which may result in construction.

The project would include a community center building, parking lot, street improvements and surrounding landscaping. The proposed project site is an undeveloped 10-acre portion of Celebration Park located in the Park's southwest corner. Figure 2 shows the park and the location of the proposed project site. The Community Center building is proposed to be approximately 78,500 square feet. A site plan is shown in Figure 3. The proposed building will consist of a single story structure with slab -on -grade floors and upper floor mezzanine. It will have finished floor elevations of approximately 385 feet above sea level. The Community Center design consists of one new building. -� The Community Center design includes a gymnasium, running track, fitness area, climbing wall, lap pool, leisure pool, locker rooms, catering kitchen, cafe, game lounge, cultural gallery, senior lounge, child care facilities, meeting/multi-purpose rooms, class rooms, and outdoor terraces. The gymnasium occupies the western portion of the facilities. The swimming pools, fitness areas, locker rooms, and climbing wall occupy the central portion. The eastern portion of the facility is used by the community spaces. Figure 4 shows the architectural conceptual jdrawings of the site and building layout. The development will also include approximately 240 parking spaces, an, extension of South 333`d Street into the park, and a fire lane surrounding the proposed building. 12. Location of the proposal, including street address, if any, and section, township, and range; legal description; site plan; vicinity map; and topographical map, if reasonably available: The project site is a 10-acre area in the southwest corner of Celebration Park.

Earth Center SEPA Environmental Checklist The following description of site topography is summarized from the Draft Geotechnical Report (Landau Associates, Inc., 2003). a. General description of the site (underline): Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other The site of the proposed Federal Way Community Center is currently undeveloped, with no surface evidence of substantial cuts and fills on the site. The site is bounded to the north by undeveloped, wooded parkland, to the east by playfields, and to the south and west by office structures and parking areas. The main portion of the site to be developed slopes generally from northeast to southwest, ranging in elevation from 380 feet up to 395 feet above sea level. A relatively steeper slope exists along the north and east sides of the site, sloping from the center of the site toward the north parcel boundary at grades up to 3 horizontal to 1 vertical. Elevations along the northern and eastern portions of the site range from about 395 down to about 355 feet above sea level. b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? The steepest slopes are found directly northeast of the project site between the proposed building and Wetland D (Dees and Associates, 1997). c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? Specify the classification of agricultural soils and note any prime farmland. The King County Soil Survey maps the soils within Celebration Park as Everett-Alderwood gravelly sandy loam, 6 to 15 percent slopes (USDA, 1973). Runoff is slow to medium, and the erosion hazard is slight to moderate. This soil type is part of the Alderwood association, which consists of moderately well drained soils with a dense, very slowly permeable layer of glacial till at a depth of 20 to 40 inches. Landau Associates (2003) performed a geotechnical assessment of the site in November 2003. They reported that subsurface conditions observed in 13 test pits excavated across the site were relatively uniform. They consisted of topsoil overlaying ablation till and lodgment till. The topsoil generally consisted of brown to red -brown, loose to medium dense, silty to very silty sand with variable amounts of gravel, and organic material. Topsoil was Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 8 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist observed in the test pits to depths of 1.25 and 2.5 feet below ground surface and forms a gradual contact with the underlying ablation till. The ablation till is of similar composition to that observed in the topsoil, but with lower organic content. The ablation till typically consists of loose to medium dense, silty sand with variable amounts of gravel and cobble. The ablation till is slightly weathered with light brown color. Minor amounts of organics were observed in the test pits to depths of 2.5 to 4 feet below ground surface. Lodgment till was found at depths of 11.5 to 15.5 feet below ground surface (BGS) No portion of the site is farmed or considered prime farmland. d. Are there any surface indications or a history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. The preliminary geotechnical study report observed no significant ongoing j erosion on the site. The report evaluated the potential of ground rupture resulting from severe seismic events and found that near -surface conditions at the site consist of very dense, glacial soil. Glacially consolidated soil is not considered to be prone to liquefaction during seismic events. Therefore, the potential of liquefaction of the site during an earthquake is considered to be improbable (Landau Associates 2003). Groundwater was not encountered at 1 the time of exploration (Nov. 2003) to the depth explored (approx. 11.5 to 15.5 BGS) in the vicinity of the proposed structure. 1 e. Describe the purpose, type, and approximate quantities of any filling or grading proposed. Indicate the source of the fill. Site grading activities are expected to consist of clearing, grubbing and stripping; excavation for building foundations; backfilling around footings, behind walls and beneath floor slabs; and sub -grade preparations for slab -on - grade floors and pavement areas. Grading for road construction will also occur. The existing site soil may be used as structural fill provided the soil is free of organics and other deleterious material. If the soil cannot be properly used to achieve the required compaction, or the amount of site soil is insufficient to establish site grades, import fill will be required. Import fill would meet the requirements for Gravel Borrow in section (2002 WSDOT/APWA standard Specification) prepared by the Washington State Department of jTransportation and American Public Works Association. Retaining walls will be required along a portion of the parking lot and along the fire access road on the north side of the site. A low (up to 3 feet high) retaining wall may be required at the west end of South 333rd Street extension Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 9 i Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist to limit grading onto adjacent property. Other on -site retaining walls may be —! constructed to step down from the building elevation to the elevations necessary for the water quality treatment and detention facilities. Additional grading will be required to lower the mounded area on the east side of the current 9th Avenue entrance to Celebration Park. The slope in the southwest corner of the intersection on the adjacent property will also need to be graded back to meet sight -distance requirements. It is estimated that approximately 50,000 cubic yards of material will result from grading and approximately 20,000 cubic yards of that material will be required as fill. The difference will have to be transported off -site. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? According to the Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS — formerly the Soil Conservation Service), the erosion potential for the soil types on site range from slight to moderate. However, the preliminary geotechnical report found that, when exposed during construction, the site soils will have a higher potential for erosion. Following construction, graded or filled pervious areas will be landscaped. Use of the site following development of the proposed project would not result in an increased potential for erosion. Potential erosion would be controlled using temporary erosion and sediment control measures. g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example buildings or asphalt)? The Community Center building, roadways, and parking areas would represent approximately 7.4 acres of impervious surface area on the site (approximately 74 percent of the project site and approximately 9 percent of the entire 83-acre Celebration Park). h. Describe the proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any. The Geotechnical Report prepared by Landau Associates in 2003 found that on -site soil was considered to be moisture sensitive. As a result, the following measures were recommended to be taken when fill is to be placed or earthwork performed in wet weather: • Accomplish earthwork in small sections. ■ Sloping excavated surfaces to promote runoff. • Limit construction traffic over unprotected soil. • Limit the size and type of construction equipment used. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 10 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist • Provide gravel "working mats" over areas of prepared subgrade. ■ Remove wet surficial soil prior to commencing fill placement each day. • Provide upgradient perimeter ditches or low earthen berms and use temporary sumps to collect runoff and prevent water from ponding and damaging exposed subgrades. • Stabilize the soil with an additive (such as lime or cement kiln dust) to allow its use in wet weather. 2. Air a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal (e.g. dust, automobile, odors, industrial, wood smoke) during construction and when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities, if known. During construction, dust, odors, and emissions from heavy machinery, trucks, and other vehicles traveling to and operating on the site would be anticipated for a period slightly less than two years (approximately 90 weeks). Following construction, the anticipated increase in use of the site would moderately increase the automobiles traveling to and from the Community Center. The increase in traffic would increase the amount of automobile emissions compared to existing conditions. However, an increase of approximately 250 weekday p.m. peak hour trips is relatively small and would result in a negligible increase in emissions. b. Are there any off -site sources of emissions or odors that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. No off -site sources of emissions or odors have been identified that would affect the proposed development. c. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any. Contractors are expected to use known, available, and reasonable measures to meet the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency's requirements. Appropriate best management practices (BMP's) are expected to be employed to reduce surface and air movement of dust during grading, demolition, and construction activities. Mitigation measures may include: _) Impervious surfaces on the site should be swept, vacuumed, or otherwise maintained to suppress dust. Temporary ground covers, sprinkling the project site with water, or use of temporary stabilization practices upon completion of grading. Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 11 24038 July 2004 J Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist • Wheel -cleaning stations could be provided to ensure construction vehicle wheels and undercarriages do not carry excess dirt from the site onto adjacent roadways. ■ Construction would be planned to minimize exposing areas of earth for extended periods. 3. 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. Surface water features in the vicinity include one forested wetland (Wetland D) located northeast of the proposed Community Center and a constructed stormwater bioswale located in the southern portion of the project area. According to Federal Way City Code (FWCC), Wetland D is considered a Category I wetland based on the presence of mature forest (FWCC Section 22-1357(a)). Category I wetlands require a 200-foot buffer (FWCC Section 22-1357(b)). Based on a previous delineation by Parametrix (1995), Wetland D is approximately 1.16 acres in size. The composite site plan map (Bruce Dees & Associates, 1997) shows the wetland originating with a narrow ravine at the northwestern corner and widening into a bowl - like depression to the southeast. Adolfson biologists confirmed the wetland location during a sensitive areas study in 2003. The results of the study are documented in the Draft Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center (Adolfson, 2003). Wetland D is characterized in detail in the report. 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. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 The proposed project has been designed to avoid impacts to wetlands and wetland buffers to the maximum extent possible. However, to allow for the proposed Community Center, development will occur within the 200- foot wetland buffer surrounding Wetland D. At its closest points, the development will be within 135 feet of Wetland D and grading for the project will extend to within about 101 feet of Wetland D at the closest point. Page 12 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist Construction erosion and sedimentation control BMWs would be used to provide the least amount of disturbance to Wetland D during the construction of the Community Center and associated facilities. To compensate for the unavoidable impacts to the wetland buffer, the Federal Way Community Center Conceptual Mitigation Plan (Adolfson, 2004) was completed. The mitigation plan describes how wetland and wetland buffer functions and values will be protected. It proposes to offset the loss of 1.7 acres (75,757 square feet) of wetland buffer on the south side of the wetland through the preservation of double the amount of wetland buffer, or 3.5 acres (151,514 square feet). The additional 3.5 acres of wetland buffer that will be preserved will be in an undeveloped portion of the park, located north of the proposed Community Center and adjacent to the southwest portion of the standard 200-foot wetland buffer. This area contains coniferous forest that provides very similar functions and values to the wetland buffer that will be impacted. The buffer impacts will be compensated at a 2:1 ratio (replacement to loss) and the expanded buffer area will be permanently set aside from future development and designated as an Environmentally Sensitive Area or Native Growth Protection Easement. The permanent protection of this amount of high quality habitat will more than fully compensate for the loss of the 1.7 acres of existing wetland buffer and its functions and values. The mitigation plan drawings show the amount of wetland buffer impact and buffer addition as well as the location of the buffer addition. 3. Estimate the amount of fill and dredge material that could 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 materials. The proposal will not require any dredge or fill activities in surface water or wetlands in the project area. 4. Will the proposal require surface water withdrawals or diversion? Give general description, purpose, and approximate quantities, if known. -j The proposal will not require any surface water withdrawals or diversions. 5. Does the proposal lie within a 100-year flood plain? If so, note location on the site plan. According to the King County GIS center's 100-year floodplain maps, the proposed project site does riot lie within a 100-year floodplain (King County, 2004). The sources for the data include FEMA preliminary and final flood insurance maps (FIRMs) and King County flood boundary work maps. j J Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 13 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist Preliminary stormwater analysis indicates that two frequently flooded areas (as defined by City of Federal Way Code) exist near the proposed site. These areas lie roughly within the 370-foot contour surrounding Wetland D and the 381-foot contour surrounding Wetland C. However, none of the proposed Community Center development would lie within these areas. b. Ground 1. Will ground water be withdrawn, or will water be discharged to ground water? Give general description, purpose, and approximate j quantities if known. Construction and operation of the proposed project will not require direct j discharge to ground water. Some stormwater runoff from the developed site will be infiltrated to the subsurface from surface water impoundments. The draft geotechnical report (Landau Associates, 2003) indicates that 1 groundwater was encountered in only one of 13 test pits at a depth of about 8 feet below surface. Seepage at this location was slight and localized in one area of the test pit. Seepage was not encountered within 7 the depths explored in the other test pits. Generally in the project area, a seasonal perched groundwater table often develops on the relatively impervious lodgment till during the winter/spring months. The thickness of the perched water table is dependant on local subsurface conditions, precipitation amounts and other factors. The groundwater conditions reported in the geotechnical report are for the specific locations and dates, and therefore may not necessarily be indicative of other locations and/or times. Furthermore, it is anticipated ] that groundwater conditions will vary depending on local subsurface j conditions, the weather, and other factors. The potential for ground water dewatering during construction will be minimized if construction is limited to the relatively dry summer and early fall. If necessary, ground water dewatering would occur during construction of the Community Center building. Withdrawn ground water would be conveyed and treated according to City of Federal Way requirements and BMPs prior to discharge to the City storm sewer system. 2. Describe waste material that will be discharged into the ground from septic tanks or other sources, if any. Describe the general size of the system, the number of such systems, the number of houses to be served (if applicable), or the number of animals or humans the system(s) is expected to serve. The project would not result in the discharge of any waste material to ground water. Stormwater facilities and sanitary sewer service will be provided as part of the proposed development. Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 14 24038 July 2004 1 I Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist 1 c. Water Runoff (including stormwater) 1. Describe the source of runoff (including stormwater) and method of collection and disposal, if any (including quantities if known). Where 1 will this water flow? Will this water flow into other waters? If so, describe. EXISTING DRAINAGE AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The proposed 10-acre project site is completely forested and has no impervious cover. Currently, stormwater is assumed to percolate on -site with minimal overland flow. Runoff from impervious surfaces in the rest of the park uses the ball fields I for some on -site detention. The ball fields are underlain with a 1 foot sand ` layer and a two -foot deep drain located at 20-foot centers. The water from 1 these detention systems discharges to adjacent wetlands via biofiltration swales. The runoff from the road, driveway, and parking lots discharges y to Lake No. 2, which was constructed by the Quadrant Corporation to serve undeveloped properties in the West Campus Planned Unit Development. Lake No. 2 is owned and maintained by the City of Federal Way. PROPOSED DRAINAGEAND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT A Preliminary Technical Information Report (TIR) detailing proposed stormwater management for the site has been prepared (Berger/ABAM, 2004) and is submitted with this SEPA checklist. The TIR contains descriptions and summaries of the analyses and designs for project stormwater facilities, including conveyance, water quality treatment, and i flow control. A downstream analysis of the storm conveyance system on 9th Avenue South has determined that the system has capacity to accept runoff from the site for conveyance to Lake No. 2, a City retention facility. Most runoff discharge from the project area will be conveyed to the conveyance system on 9th Avenue. The Community Center's roof runoff will be used to feed the wetland located north of the project site. Subsurface investigations have indicated that site soils are not suitable for infiltration due to a thick layer of dense lodgment till; therefore, no groundwater recharge is expected to occur. The project is located in a Level 1 Flow Control area, as defined by King County and the City of Federal Way. Off -site discharges from developed sites must match post -development peak flows to pre -development peak flows for the 2-year and 10-year storm events. On -site detention facilities will be constructed to provide flow control for both the site and the road surface runoff. The detention facilities will include two ponds and one Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 15 24038 July 2004 �J I Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist underground detention vault. The size of the facilities and the design of the flow control structure are based on matching the peak flows, as described above. —� The underground detention vault will be located in the northwest parking area. Only runoff from the building roof will be conveyed to this facility. Flow controlled discharge from the vault will be to the north of the site and will feed the existing wetland located east of the discharge location. The vault will have a storage capacity of 17,600 cf and peak discharges for the 2-year and 10-year events will be limited to 0.052 cfs and 0.092 cfs, respectively. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 One detention pond will be located in the southwest corner of the project site, and will collect runoff from the northwest parking area, the western access drive to the building, and the upper portion of the public. Flow controlled discharge from the pond will be to a piped conveyance system constructed in the new public street with ultimate discharge into the existing 9th Avenue conveyance system. This Upper Detention Pond will have a storage capacity of 20,308 cf and peak discharges for the 2-year and 10-year events will be limited to 0.058 cfs and 0.102 cfs, respectively. One detention pond will be located in the southeast corner of the project site, and will collect runoff from the main parking lot, and the lower portion of the public street. Flow controlled discharge from the pond will be to a piped conveyance system constructed just east of the ponds with ultimate discharge into the existing 9th Avenue conveyance system. This Lower Detention Pond will have a storage capacity of 37,897 cf and peak discharges for the 2-year and 10-year events will be limited to 0.128 cfs and 0.223 cfs, respectively. Concrete curbs will be located along all road and parking areas to collect surface runoff from paved areas. Runoff from these areas will require water quality treatment prior to discharge from the site. The site is located within a Resource Stream Protection Water Quality Area, and a two - facility treatment train will be used to provide water quality treatment for all runoff generated on pollution generating surfaces. The building's roof material (asphalt shingles and rubber surface) is not considered to be pollution generating, and treatment for this runoff stream is not proposed. Treatment facilities at both the detention ponds will include proprietary filtration and sedimentation facilities as manufactured by Stormwater Management, which meet City of Federal Way treatment criteria for Resource Stream Protection Areas. A Storm Gate Separator will be located just upstream of Storm Filter facilities to collect and convey all flows from the pollution generating surfaces. The facilities have been sized in accordance with City of Federal Way and King County Page 16 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist requirements to provide treatment for the prescribed water quality treatment flows. An 18-inch storm drain currently spans the area where the lower detention pond will be located. This 18-inch line provides high water level drainage from Wetland D located to the north of the site. A portion of the existing line will be removed, routed around the pond, and connected to the storm system on 9th Avenue. This relocated system will also collect discharge from soccer field underdrains located east of the site within the greater Celebration Park area. Currently, the soccer fields discharge to a bioswale located within the Community Center project limits. The bioswale will be replaced with a StormFilter unit to provide equivalent treatment prior to discharge to the conveyance system. Current drawings in the Preliminary TIR do not indicate the location of the new treatment system or connection from the underdrain system. 2. Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. The project would not result in the discharge of waste material to ground or surface waters. The Community Center would be connected to the sanitary sewer system and permanent stormwater facilities would be provided as described above. d. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control surface, ground, and runoff water impacts, if any. Provided that all construction and design standards are implemented as part of the proposed project, no impacts to surface or ground water quality or the City stormwater system are anticipated. As described above, during construction all applicable City of Federal Way Clearing and Grading Code and Surface Water Engineering Standards BMPs would be implemented. 4. Plants The following information has been largely summarized from the Draft Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center (Adolfson, 2003). Additional information has been incorporated from the topographic survey (Earth Tech, 2003) and a site visit by Adolfson Associates, Inc. staff in March and September 2003 and May 2004. Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 17 24038 July 2004 11 J 1 I Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist a. Types of vegetation found on site: Deciduous trees: The project area is dominated by conifer forest with some deciduous species present. Deciduous species include red alder and black cottonwood. Evergreen trees: The project area is predominantly vegetated with conifer forest with some deciduous species present. Evergreen species include Douglas -fir, western hemlock, and western redcedar. -� Shrubs: Understory vegetation in the forest includes Indian plum, salmonberry, sword fern, trailing blackberry, salal, and Oregon grape. Grass: Grass dominated areas include maintained areas adjacent to park roads and parking lots. Small patches of grass are found near the edges of the conifer forest and are dominated by bentgrass, fescue, and reed canarygrass. J J Pasture: none Wet Soil Plants: Red -osier dogwood, Douglas spiraea, willow, and salmonberry. Water Plants: none b. What kind and amount of vegetation will be removed or altered? Grading and construction for the proposed development will affect approximately 10 acres of coniferous forest. Development would require removal of trees, shrubs, and grass. c. List threatened or endangered species or critical habitat known to be on or near the site. The Washington Natural Heritage Program (WNHP) identified no rare plants in the project vicinity (WDNR, 2003). d. Describe proposed landscaping, use of native plants, or other measures to preserve or enhance vegetation on site. The Landscape Schematic Design prepared by Barker Rinker Seacat (2004) describes in detail the proposed landscaping plans. The planting design shall incorporate low groundcover, low shrubs, and high canopy trees to create a safe environment and allow for unobstructed visual access throughout the site. Plant material will include native species and a theme of low water use and low maintenance is proposed for all landscape design plans. Landscape planting will be designed to meet Federal Way's Zoning Code requirements. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 18 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist 5. Animals The following information has been largely summarized from the Draft Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community -� Center (Adolfson, 2003). Additional information has been incorporated from the topographic survey (Earth Tech, 2003) and site visits by Adolfson Associates, Inc. staff in March and September 2003 and May 2004. a. Underline any birds and animals which have been observed on or near the site or are known to be on or near the site: Fish: bass, salmon, trout, herring, shellfish, other Adolfson biologists found no fish at the project site. Amphibians: frogs, salamanders, other Adolfson biologists observed one red -legged frog during a March 2003 site visit. No other amphibians were identified during the site visits. Reptiles: lizards, snakes, turtles, other 1 Adolfson biologists observed one garter snake during a May 2004 site visit. No other reptiles were identified during the site visits. Birds: hawks, heron, eagle, songbirds, ducks, other Bird species observed during a site visit in September 2003 by Adolfson biologists include: Pileated woodpecker, song sparrow, black -capped 1 chickadee, American robin, Bewick's wren, Steller's jay, spotted towhee, red- tailed hawk. A May 2004 site visit by Adolfson biologists found additional species, including: California quail, American goldfinch, black -headed grosbeak, willow flycatcher, western tanager, chestnut -backed chickadee, Wilson's warbler, and orange -crowned warbler. Mammals: deer, bear, elk, beaver (mountain beaver evidence), other A Mammals were not observed during site visits conducted by Adolfson biologists. However, the wildlife and habitat assessment report indicates that -1 mammals likely to be present on the site include mountain beaver, coyotes, raccoons, opossums, shrews, mice and mole species. b. List any threatened or endangered species or critical habitat near the site. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) has indicated that it is no longer providing lists of special -status species for specific project sites due to Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 19 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist workload and budget constraints. Therefore, the species list provided by USFWS for the Community Center project includes all federally designated species within King County. This list includes some species that would not be expected to occur in an urbanizing area such as the City of Federal Way due 1 to their limited range or specific habitat requirements. Federal threatened or endangered terrestrial species included in the USFWS letter that may occur in or near the park include the bald eagle (WDFW, 2004). State threatened, endangered, or candidate species identified by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) that may occur in or near the park include the pileated woodpecker, Vaux' swift, purple martin, and merlin. All other 1 species identified by USFWS or WDFW are unlikely to be found in the region or the park's habitats. Species may also be federal species of concern and state monitor species (A complete discussion of these species, their status and 1 habitats is provided in the Draft Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center [Adolfson, 2003]). The closest bald eagle nest is located approximately 1.5 miles southeast of Celebration Park (WDFW, 2004). Adolfson staff observed a pileated woodpecker excavating a standing tree in upland forest in the study area during September 2003. Foraging habitat and potential nesting habitat for pileated woodpeckers occurs within the forested upland and wetland portions of the park, and evidence of woodpecker use is common throughout the site. 1 The WDFW Priority Habitat and Species (PHS) list considers certain habitat J types to be priority habitat areas, including heron rookeries, large concentrations of waterfowl, and large concentrations of breeding or communally roosting bats. No large bat colonies are known to exist near Celebration Park (WDFW, 2004). Lakes located one to two miles to the north, east, and southeast of Celebration Park support regular, large concentrations of waterfowl (WDFW, 2004). The nearest documented green/blue heron breeding areas are located approximately 3 miles northwest and 3 miles east of the park (City of Federal Way, 2000). c. Is the site part of a migratory route? If so, explain. The project site is located within the Pacific Flyway, which is a flight corridor for migrating waterfowl and other avian fauna. The Pacific Flyway covers the entire Puget Sound region, and extends south from Alaska to Mexico and South America. d. Proposed measures to preserve or enhance wildlife, if any. jAs described above, mitigation measures for the removal of vegetation within J a portion of a wetland buffer in the study area include the addition of undeveloped forest to be -permanently set aside from future development. J This protected area (approximately 3.5 acres of conifer forest, which provides high quality wildlife habitat) will be designated an Environmentally Sensitive Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 20 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist Area or Native Growth Protection Easement as mitigation for the buffer - impact. The forest is dominated by native plant species and provides significant habitat value to birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles. 6. Energy and Natural Resources a. What kinds of energy (electric, natural gas, oil, wood, solar) will be used to meet the completed project's energy needs? Describe whether it will be 1 used for heating, manufacturing, etc. I J Development of the Community Center would require electrical power for lighting the new building, as well as safety lighting around parking areas and walkways approaching the Community Center. The Community Center would also require natural gas for heating. Puget Sound Energy would provide both. b. Would the project affect the potential use of solar energy by adjacent properties? If so, explain. The proposed development would not affect the use of solar energy by adjacent properties. The proposed facility would comply with height restrictions established by City of Federal Way Code, which is a maximum building height of 55 feet above the average finished grade. More importantly, the mature forest cover on site and forest cover surrounding the site is much taller than the proposed structure. The mature forest would affect the potential use of solar energy by adjacent properties much more than the proposed development. c. What kinds of energy conservation features are included in the plans of this proposal? List other proposed measures to reduce or control energy impacts, if any. Energy conservation features are being developed as building design plans progress. Conservation features could include the use of daylight with daylighting controls, natural ventilation, high performance low-E glazing, high efficiency lighting design and lighting controls, high efficiency HVAC equipment with load responsive controls and heat recovery for the pool areas. This will be at least 30% more energy efficient than required by the Washington State Energy Code. Impacts to energy resources are not anticipated as a result of the proposed development 7. Environmental Health a. Are there any environmental health hazards, including exposure to toxic chemicals, risk of fire and explosion, spills, or hazardous waste that could occur as a result of this proposal? If so, describe. No significant risk of exposure to environmental health hazards would occur as a result of the proposal. Risk of fire would be greatest in the proposed Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 21 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist _1 kitchen. All facilities would be provided with appropriate fire extinguishers, overhead sprinklers, and a fire alarm system that complies with the International Fire Code. 1. Describe special emergency services that might be required. No special emergency services would likely be required. Typical emergency services such as fire, police, and emergency medical response may be required for emergencies developing as a result of recreational activities or other accidents occurring at the Community Center. 2. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards. Storage of any cleaning or maintenance materials considered to be hazardous materials would comply with International Fire Code { requirements. i b. Noise 1 1. What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your project (for example: traffic, equipment operation, other)? Due to site topography, vegetation, and surrounding land uses (i.e., park ' and playfields and medium intensity office and warehouse buildings), the i only source of noise that may affect the project is vehicular traffic entering the park from South 333rd Street. 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)? Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Short-term noise impacts could result from construction vehicles and equipment during daylight hours. According to the Federal Way City Code development activity and operation of heavy machinery would be limited to 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturdays. No development activity or operation of heavy machinery would occur outside of these times, on Sundays or on holidays, except if permitted by the director of community development and only in cases where the activity would not interfere with any residential use permitted in the zone in which it is located. Long-term noise impacts could result from increased traffic of vehicles traveling to the Community Center. Surrounding properties would also be subject to noise associated with use of the Community Center. Since South 333rd Street currently dead ends at the park boundary, long-term Page 22 I Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist noise impacts could result from increased traffic traveling to events or activities held in the proposed building. Hours of operation for the Community Center would be approximately 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. on weekdays, at 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Hours of operation at the Community Center building could be extended for special events. 3. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control noise impacts, if any. Construction activities will be restricted to hours designated by the Federal Way Code for Noise Control. If construction activities exceed permitted noise levels, the City would instruct the contractor to implement measures -� to reduce noise impacts to comply with the Federal Way City Code, which may include additional muffling of equipment. 8. Land and Shoreline Use a. What is the current use of the site and adjacent properties? The site is currently an undeveloped portion of Celebration Park. The site is predominantly forested with both established and informal walking trails extending through it. The site is bounded on the east by soccer fields in the park, on the north by Wetland D and forested portions of the park, and on the west and south by three and four story office buildings and warehouses. b. Has the site been used for agriculture? If so, describe. -' The site has not been used for agriculture in the recent past. The site was logged in the early 1900s and the existing forest cover represents secondary successional growth. c. Describe any structures on the site. There are no structures currently on the proposed site. d. Will any structures be demolished? If so, what? No structure will be demolished. Je. What is the current zoning classification of the site? JThe site is currently zoned OP: Office Park. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 23 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist f. What is the current comprehensive plan designation of the site? According to the City of Federal Way Comprehensive Plan Map, the site is designated as Parks and Open Space. g. If applicable, what is the current shoreline master program designation of the site? INot Applicable h. Has any part of the site been classified as an "environmentally sensitive" area? If so, specify. According to the Natural Environment Chapter in the Federal Way Comprehensive Plan, the only Growth Management Act (GMA) defined critical (sensitive) area within the site proposed for the Community Center is the wetland complex described as Wetland D. A description of the wetlands and sensitive areas is included in the Draft Wetland Delineation and Sensitive Areas Report Celebration Park Community Center (Adolfson, 2003). i. Approximately how many people would reside or work in the completed project? No people would reside on site following completion of the project. City of Federal Way full and part time employees would staff the Community Center. Staff would be comprised of approximately 15 full time employees and 50 part time employees. j. Approximately how many people would the completed project displace? No people would be displaced as a result of the project. k. Describe proposed measures to avoid or reduce displacement impacts, if any. Not applicable. 1. Describe proposed measures to ensure the proposal is compatible with existing and projected land uses and plans, if any. The development of the Federal Way Community Center is compatible with the projected land use under the City of Federal Way's Comprehensive Plan (2003). The plan identifies the proposed Community Center development site for use as park and open space. In addition, the proposed Federal Way J Community Center is compatible with the findings and goals established by the Federal Way Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Comprehensive Plan Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 24 1 J Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist (2000). That plan's needs analysis was based on a recreation survey, which l found that "New Community/Recreation center" was the most commonly cited needed facility. The plan also establishes indoor recreational facilities as an appropriate facility in a community park. 9. Housing a. Approximately how many units would be provided, if any? Indicate whether high, middle, or low-income housing. No housing units would be provided by the proposed project. b. Approximately how many units, if any, would be eliminated? Indicate -1 whether high, middle, or low-income housing. 11 No housing units would be eliminated by the proposed project. c. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control housing impacts, if any. Not applicable. 10. Aesthetics a. What is the tallest height of any of the proposed structure(s), not including antennas? What is the principal exterior building material(s) }I proposed? } The tallest above grade portion of the Community Center would be the climbing wall ridge at 45 feet. This feature would be located on the front 1 (southeast face) of the building, west of the main entrance. J Consistent with City of Federal Way Zoning Code standards, no portion of the Community Center would exceed 55 feet above the average finished grade of the site where the building would be located. The principal exterior building material will include concrete masonry for exterior walls, a cementicious material (like Hardi=panel) or ceramic composite ram screen system for the panels above or below window locations, and glass and aluminum for windows and doors. Colors for the building have not been designated yet, but would likely include the use of materials, color and texture to compliment the surrounding wooded, natural character of the site. b. What views in the immediate vicinity would be altered or obstructed? No views in the immediate vicinity would be obstructed as a result of the proposed development. Views of the site from the north and northeast would Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 25 1 J IFederal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist not be significantly altered due to the site topography and forest cover. Views from the west and south and from the east in the southern portion of the park would be altered. The Community Center building and parking lot would be j seen from these areas. As described below, the use of building materials, color, landscaping, and the existing tree cover to the north of the site would l soften the views of the new building and associated driveways and parking j areas. c. Describe proposed measures to reduce aesthetic impacts, if any. Architectural design, building materials, color, texture, retention of existing J trees, and landscaping with native and non-native trees and shrubs would be J used to complement the forested, natural character of the site. Although the design details have not been finalized, the architectural and landscape design would help the Community Center blend into the context of the park and neighborhood. 11. Light and Glare a. What type of light and glare will the proposal produce? What time of day would it mainly occur? Exterior lighting would be provided primarily for safety around the perimeter of the proposed Community Center, walkways approaching the Community Center, and parking lot areas. With the exception of lighting maintained for security reasons, exterior lighting at the Community Center and parking areas would not be kept on longer than scheduled nighttime events, typically no later than 10:00 p.m. Rental of the facility for special events could extend the hours later than 10:00 p.m. The greatest potential source for glare during daylight hours would be the glass windows of the Community Center. Given the height restrictions for development of the site (i.e., no greater than 55 feet above the average finished grade) and the surrounding trees and vegetation that will be retained or incorporated into the landscape design, significant light and glare from the facility is not anticipated. b. Could light or glare from the finished project be a safety hazard or interfere with views? Light or glare from the proposed development would not constitute a safety hazard. Increased lighting at night from the Community Center, driveways and parking areas could be viewed from properties west and south of the park boundary. However, the present use of those adjacent properties is primarily office and warehouse. Use of these properties is unlikely to be affected by increased light and glare produced by the proposed development. It is also unlikely that light and glare from the development would penetrate the forested surroundings and affect the residential areas located to the north of Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 26 J Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist the park. The limited hours of nighttime lighting and the surrounding trees and landscaping would soften or filter the exterior lighting when viewed from these areas. -1 c. What existing off -site sources of light or glare may affect your proposal? 1J No existing off -site sources of light or glare would likely affect the proposed development. Street lighting from the office park development to the west and south of the site and playfield lighting from the park are the greatest light sources in the immediate vicinity of the site. 1 d. Describe the proposed measures to reduce or control light and glare impacts, if any. As mentioned above, the retention of trees and vegetation and the landscaping design will help to soften or filter light and glare generated from the Community Center. Outdoor lighting will be designed to aim light where appropriate and avoid general light dispersion. Impacts from light and glare are not anticipated as a result of the proposed development. The Community Center deign is proposed to follow the guidelines set by the International Dark Sky Association. Pursuant to these guidelines all normal exterior area lighting fixtures would meet the criteria for fully shielded luminaires. The term fully shielded is defined as: Condition of an installed outdoor luminaire such that all light emitted by the fixture is projected below the horizontal. This shielding requirement would apply to all pole mounted luminaires located along parking lot and sidewalk areas at the front and side of the building as well as for all wall mounted luminaires located on the wetlands side of the building. 1 l In addition to the shielding, the lighting trespass levels for the exterior areas of the site have also been chosen using recommendations from the Illumination Engineering Society of North America and International Dark Sky Association for an Environmental Zone E2 which is defined as an "Area of low ambient brightness". 12. Recreation a. What designated and informal recreational opportunities are in the immediate vicinity? J The proposed project site is located within Celebration Park. Celebration Park was re -developed in 1997 from the site of the Evergreen Airport. The park includes four softball/baseball diamonds, soccer fields, kids play areas, trails, restrooms and parking. The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) trail also extends from the northwest corner of the park along the northern border of the park. The trail is used for walking, running and biking. Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 27 24038 July 2004 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist b. Would the proposed project displace any existing recreational uses? If so, describe. The 10-acre site proposed for the Community Center development is forested. There are no established hiking trails in the area, but there are a limited number of informal trails. Use of these trails will be displaced by the proposed development. There are no other recreational uses on the site. c. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control impacts on recreation, including recreational opportunities to be provided by the project or applicant. i The proposed development would increase recreational opportunities in the p vicinity by providing new interior recreational space to the residents of y Federal Way. As described in Section 8, above, Land and Shoreline Use, the need for a Community Center has been identified in previous City Park Plans i and the Comprehensive Plan. 1 13. Historic and Cultural Preservation 1 a. Are there any places or objects listed on or eligible for national, state, or ' local preservation registers known to be on or next to the site? If so, 1 generally describe. } According to the National Register of Historic Places and the Washington Heritage Register, there are no listed places or objects on or adjacent to the i site (WOAHP, 2004). b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence of historic, archeological, scientific, or cultural importance known to be on or next to the site. No designated landmarks or evidence of historic, archaeological, scientific, or cultural importance are located on or next to the site. c. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control impacts, if any. The proposed project does not involve any construction activities that would adversely affect designated landmarks or historic properties. However, in the event that archaeological resources were unexpectedly exposed during excavation or grading on the site, all construction would be temporarily halted in the immediate vicinity of activity and the City of Federal Way and the Washington Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (WOAHP) J would be notified. Construction activity would not resume until the City, WOAHP, and a professional archaeologist had been consulted. Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 28 Federal Way Community Center SEPA 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. The site is fronted by South 333rd Street to the south and 9th Avenue South to the east. Two accesses will be provided from the site to South 333rd Street. One will be an approach into a roundabout which will be constructed at the west end of the site and the other will be a driveway approach from the parking lot near the southeast area of the site. b. Is the site currently served by public transit? If not, what is the approximate distance to the nearest transit stop? Nearby public transit stops are located at: lst Way South & South 332nd St - Route MT 903 — Approximately 0.5 mile and South 336th & 9th Ave South - Routes MT 182, MT 903- Approximately 0.25 mile. c. How many parking spaces would the completed project have? How many would the project eliminate? The project will provide approximately 240 parking spaces. It will eliminate no parking spaces. d. Will the proposal require any new roads or streets, or improvements to existing roads or streets, not including driveways? If so, generally describe. South 333rd Street will be extended from its terminus, past the site and will connect to 9th Ave South. 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 generate 1,796 weekday trips, 723 Saturday trips and 1,095 Sunday trips. Peak volumes on weekdays will occur before and after typical commute periods. g. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control transportation impacts, if any. Measures to reduce or control transportation impacts resulting from construction of the proposed Community Center would include both Adolfson Associates, Inc. Page 29 24038 July 2004 I Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist proportional share contributions to several local traffic improvements and full responsibility for two intersection improvement projects. The first intersection project would signalize the intersection at South 333rd Street and 1 st Way South. The second project would place an all way stop at the —� intersection of South 333rd Street and 9th Avenue South. Complete details of each proposed transportation mitigation measure are available in the Traffic Impact Analysis Report (TCN, 2004). 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 explain. The proposed development would not provide new housing and would not result in an increased need for schools or health care facilities. Development of the Community Center would increase the intensity of uses on the site, in terms of the number of persons using the site, and the duration of activities. The increase in intensity of uses could result in an increased need for i emergency response capacity to the site, such as fire, police, and emergency medical response. However, this increase is not anticipated to place additional capacity demands on the existing public services being provided in the vicinity. b. Describe proposed measures to reduce or control direct impacts on public services. Access to the site would be provided according to development standards for emergency vehicular access such as fire trucks. Through consultation with the Federal Way Fire Department, the Community Center design will include a fire lane around the entire building. A locked gate would control access to the fire lane. Impacts to public services are not anticipated; therefore, mitigation measures have not been developed. 16. Utilities I a. Underline utilities currently available at the site: Electriciiy, natural gas, water, refuse service, telephone, sanitary sewer, septic systems, other (stormwater drainage} Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Utilities are readily available at the west side of the development along the South 333rd Street right-of—way, which will serve as the main access for the proposed Community Center.

FIGURE 5 UTILITIES PLAN FEDERAL WAY COMMUNITY CENTER FEDERAL WAY, WASHINGTON Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist �l 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, which might be needed. Utilities proposed to serve the Community Center would include electricity, natural gas, telephone, DSL or cable for internet access, water, sanitary sewer service, and stormwater collection and treatment. A new public water main will be constructed extending from the existing fl- inch waterline on South 333rd Street to the existing 12-inch waterline located at the current entrance to Celebration Park. The extension will be an 8-inch ductile iron pipe waterline, which will cross the main parking area. The extended public water main will provide water supply for domestic consumption, landscape irrigation, the building fire sprinkler system, and four on -site fire hydrants. One fire hydrant will be located on each face of the proposed building. The public water system will be constructed by the project's construction contractor and turned over to the Lakehaven Utility District for ownership and maintenance upon completion of the project. On - site fire hydrants located outside of the street right-of-way will be located within easements. A sanitary sewer manhole and 8-inch sewer line is located at the end of existing South 333rd Street. Sanitary sewer line for the facility will require extension of the public system with a 6-inch sewer extending from the existing manhole to a new manhole located within the roundabout center circle. This manhole will serve as both the termination of the public sewer system and as the monitoring manhole for the Community Center sanitary service. A 6-inch service line will extend from the monitoring manhole to the building with a cleanout located just outside the building. Preliminary discussions with the Lakehaven Utility District indicate that the downstream system has adequate capacity to provide regular service to the ` Community Center facility. Drainage of the Center's aquatic facilities, however, may require flow and volume restrictions during certain periods (daytime) and will require notification to the District's treatment plant 1 operators. Analysis of the existing sanitary sewer system and coordination with the Lakehaven Utility District will be completed as part of design development to determine whether limitations exist for draining the Community Center's aquatic facilities. Other utilities for the project include telephone and other communication services. Most of these utilities exist on South 333d Street. Some short mainline extensions may be necessary, with service connections likely in the vicinity of the South 333`d Street roundabout. j J Adolfson Associates, Inc. 24038 July 2004 Page 32 Federal Way Community Center SEPA Environmental Checklist C.
