Pursuant to Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.10.020(8), the city has determined the application complete as of October 7, 2019, and the proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. As a result, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required to comply with the State Environmental PalisyAst (SEPA). A copy of the Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) 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 tray Mirmr, posted onsite, posted on the official public notification boards of the city, and mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the site on October 11, 2019.

All final determinations may be appealed within 21 days (November 15, 2019) following the comment deadline. No licenses, permits, or approvals will be issued until completion of the appeal period. Our decision not to require an EIS does not mean that the license, permit, or approval you are seeking from the city has been granted.

This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to fiarther analyze the proposal. Instructions for Applicants This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable" or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision -making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of Checklist for Nonproject Proposals For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non -projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements —that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal.

ENviRoNMENTAL ELEMENTS 1. Earth a. General description of the site: (circle one): Flat(Dully, steep slopes, mountainous, other b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? 20% c. What general types of soils are found on the site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat, muck)? If you know the classification of agricultural soils, specify them and note any agricultural land of long-term commercial significance and whether the proposal results in removing any of these soils. Alderwood glacial till deposits. Medium dense to dense silty sand silty gravel and an area of sandy silt glacially consolidated deposits. d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe. Erosion hazard areas are mapped on the eastern half of the Montevista site. e. Describe the purpose, type, total area, and approximate quantities and total affected area of any filling, excavation, and grading proposed. Indicate source of fill. Earthwork will include stripping the site, grading the roadway and lot areas, excavating the detention facilities, installing utilities, and excavating foundation footings. Cut = 5,000 cubic yards, fill = 7,200 cubic yards, net (cut) = 2,200 cubic yards. Source of fill is either from onsite excavation or from an approved structural fill supplier. f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. No. Erosion and sedimentation control best management practices will be used on site.

About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for example, asphalt or buildings)? f32% includes roads and buildings. h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: All proposed Erosion and Sedimentation Control measures are shown on the Clearing and Grading Plans for Montevista Short Plat. Measures include installing stabilized construction entrance, install filter fabric fence around project site, install offsite catch basin protection, construct sediment trap/pond, install interceptor swales/berms and check dams, install landscaping where indicated, clean storm drainage system, on and off site, of all sediment and debris. 2. Air a. What types of emissions to the air would result from the proposal during construction, operation, and maintenance when the project is completed? If any, generally describe and give approximate quantities if known. Some heavy machinery exhaust and dust particulates generated primarily by construction equipment. After construction the ongoing emissions will primarily come from passenger vehicle exhaust and residential home emissions typical of a 6-home and 7-home neighborhood. b. Are there any off -site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally describe. Generally, no. Vehicle trips on 6t' Ave SW and SW 3651h St may affect the homeowners; however, this type of impact would not be uncommon for this type of development. c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: All construction equipment will be in proper working order and regulated for emissions by the manufacturer and local emission laws. Vehicles entering and leaving the site will also be regulated for emissions by state and local emission laws. During construction the site will be watered as necessary to keep any dust from impacting surrounding air quality. 3. Water a. Surface Water: 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, wetlands)? If yes, describe type and provide names. If appropriate, state what stream or river it flows into. None known.
