BCRA-Telecare, 3343013th Place South, Federal Way
Dear Ms. Phillips:
January 22, 2016
FILE
On December 8, 2015, the City of Federal Way received your December 7, 2015, request for third party review of the
Critical Area Report/Stream Determination for the Telecare property, prepared by Sewall Wetland Consulting Inc.
Per the report prepared by Sewall, the site contains a Type Ns stream, which requires a 35-foot buffer. The site also
contains another drainage feature which is not a stream.
REPORT
The city forwarded your request to our consultant, Otak, for their review. Otak completed a site visit and reviewed
relevant documents. Otak's January 20, 2016, technical memorandum states:
"We agree with the stream classification (Type Ns) and buffer width determination (35 feet) for the stream
on the project site per FWRC 19.145.270. We also agree that the second drainage feature shown on the City
map does not qualify as a stream per FWRC 19.145.260. The OHWM along the Type Ns stream should be
delineated in the field and shown on any development proposal to ensure compliance with FWRC 19.145."
CLOSING
The Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) along the Type Ns stream must be delineated in the field. The stream,
associated buffer, and building setback must be delineated on the site plan of any development application in
conformance with Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 19.145.150(4) and 19.145.260.
As discussed at the Preapplication meeting in October 2015, if it is determined that the project does not affect the on -
site stream, then "lands covered by water" would not be affected and SEPA would not be required. A Use Process II
land use application is required rather than a Process III. The additional public notice you have agreed to perform can
be discussed once application is made.
Should you have any questions about this letter, I can be reached at 253-835-2634, or stacey,-,velshCu7..�.ityoffcdemlway.corn..

At the request of the City of Federal Way (City), Otak, Inc. biologists reviewed the Stream
Determination report (dated December 7, 2015) prepared by Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. for
parcels #768190-0010 and #768190-0020 located at 33430 13'' Place South in Federal Way,
Washington. The report was reviewed for consistency with the requirements of the Federal Way
Revised Code (FWRC) Chapter 19.145, "Environmentally Critical Areas," especially FWRC
19.145.270 (Stream Buffers). A site visit to the subject properties was conducted on January 14, 2016
to inspect the stream and drainage features identified in the report, and identify any other potential
regulated features per FWRC Chapter 19.145. This memorandum presents the findings of our
review.
Summary of Applicant's Stream Determination Report
The Stream Determination report from Sewall Wetland Consulting, Inc. documents a southerly
flowing stream on the east side of parcel #768190-0020 that flows into a culvert with a trash rack.
The stream is described as arrintermittendy flowing system based on the low flows observed during
site visits in November 2015 following periods of heavy rain. Due to the apparent seasonal flow and
lack of fish access, the stream is suggested to meet the criteria of a Type Ns (non -fish habitat,
seasonal) water, which has a 35-foot buffer measured from the ordinary high water mark (OHWNv .
A second mapped drainage shown on the City map is described in the report as an artificially created
overflow from the southerly flowing Type Ns stream. It is lined with riprap, and connects to the
Type Ns stream approximately 15 feet north of the where the Type Ns stream enters the culvert and
flows underground. The report states there is no well-defined drainage to the west of the Type Ns
stream as shown on the City maps, and that it is an artificial overflow feature rather than a stream.

Background Review and Field Inspection
Page 2
January 20, 2016
The Type Ns stream identified in the report is an unnamed tributary to West Fork Hylebos Creek. It
flows into a culvert as described in the report, and then west toward 13`h Place SE in an
underground pipe. It is situated high in the watershed, and receives stormwater runoff from the
surrounding urban landscape.
Regarding flow regime, the Type Ns stream is not mapped per the Washington Department of
Natural Resources (WDNR) Forest Practices Application Mapping Tool, nor by the Washington
Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) SalmonScape mapping application that utilizes the
National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). Salmonscape shows an unnamed tributary with an
intermittent flow regime beginning approximately 1000 feet south of the project site, which is also
shown on WDNR's mapping tool as fish presence "Uknown".
During the site inspection in January 14, 2016, the Type Ns stream was inspected for the presence
of benthic macroinvertebrates that would potentially indicate the presence of perennial flows. Three
separate sections of the stream in the project area were inspected, but no benthic macroinvertebrates
were observed. Due to the stream reach's location high in an urbanized watershed and lack of
observed benthic macroinvertebrates in the stream reach, Otak agrees that the stream has an
intermittent flow regime.
Regarding fish presence in the stream reach on the project site, WDFW's Salmonscape application
shows two total fish passage blockages south of South 336`h Street due to dams that were previously
constructed for flood control. It is highly unlikely that anadromous fish from the main stem of West
Fork Hylebos Creek can reach the project site. Resident fish are also not likely present due to the
intermittent flow regime of the Type Ns stream, and the apparent lack of aquatic habitat refugia
available during low flow conditions north of South 336`h Street, as the stream is mainly piped
underground.
The other drainage feature (i.e., pathway) identified in the report and shown on the City map was
not identified as a stream in the field due to the absence of an OHWM. Indicators of an OHWM,
such as defined bed and banks and gravel sorting, were not observed. Additionally, no evidence of
erosional scour or rilling was observed as English ivy (Hedera helix) was growing within the drainage
feature. English ivy typically grows in upland habitats. The drainage feature directs overflow water
from the Type Ns stream to three inlets that drop into the underground piped system presumably
during storm events of sufficient magnitude, but not at a frequency to make an impression on the
landscape separate from the surrounding uplands (see Photo 1).

Dear Jim,
This report describes our observations of jurisdictional streams and/or
buffers on or within 100' of Parcels #768190-0010 & 768190-0020.
These parcels are located on the east side of 13t' Place S in the City of
Federal Way, Washington (the "site").

The purpose of our investigation was to review the drainage features on
the site to determine which if any, are jurisdictional streams. The City of

Federal Way Commercial Site Inspection Maps for the site depict a south
flowing drainage entering the eastern side of the site, as well as a
westerly flowing drainage along the south boundary of the eastern parcel.
Above: City of Federal Way mapping of drainages on the east side of the
site.
OBSERVATIONS
The site consists of an abandoned paved area on the western parcel, as
well as a disturbed forested area on the east. Several abandoned vagrant
camps with associated trash and debris were noted in the forested area.
A deeply dug ditch enters the east side of the site and flows into a culvert
with a trash rack which enters an underground storm system and is
assumed to flow westerly in a culvert. The ditch contains several check
dams, and based upon the low flows observed during our site visits in
November following periods of heavy rain, this appears to be an

intermittent flowing feature. Although this feature has been channelized,
it does appear to contain some natural flow and appears to be a ditched
stream. Given its apparent seasonal flow, lack of fish access to the
channel, this stream appears to best meet the criteria of a Type Ns water.
According to FWMC 19.145.270.1, Type Ns streams have a 35' buffer
measured from the OHWM.
Type Ns stream on east side of site looking north from culvert.
As previously described, a second mapped drainage is shown on the City
of Federal Way maps along the south side of the eastern parcel. This
consists of a poorly defined artificially created overflow from the Type Ns
stream. On the east side of the Type Ns stream about 15' north of the

culvert, is a rip -rap lined overflow area cut in the top of the ditch. There
is no well-defined drainage to the west as shown on the City map. There
are several trash rack lined catch basin type features on an asphalt lined
depression along the southeast side which appear to enter a vault.
In order to get a definitive determination on these features I had Larry
Fisher, the area habitat biologist for WDFW visit the site with me on
November 12, 2015 to determine which if any of these features meet the
definition of a stream. As detailed in the email follow up to our site visit
(attached), Larry agreed that only the eastern ditch contained a stream
and the one depicted flowing west is an artificial overflow feature and not
a stream.

Subject: Federal Way
Larry, I have a site in Federal Way that's in the Hylebos drainage (see attached map). There is a stream along the
east side of the site, but then there is this odd constructed overflow the City thinks is possibly a stream. Doesn't
look it to me and I wanted to see if you had time to meet there and take a look at it with me. Let me know what
would work.
