SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
Purpose of Checklist
Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant. 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 further 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.

Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the proposed uses and the size of the
project and site. There are several questions later in this checklist that ask you to describe certain
aspects of your proposal. You do not need to repeat those answers on this page. (Lead agencies may
modify this form to include additional specific information on project description.)
This proposal covers two related applications associated with the same project site: a Concomitant
Zoning Agreement amendment (File #21-103294, requiring a Use Process V approval) and a
Building Permit Application (File #21-103295, requiring a Use Process III approval).'
File #21-103294 (UPI - CZA Amendment: This application proposes an amendment to the
existing Concomitant Zoning Agreement between the City of Federal Way and WinCo Foods.
This amendment would add to Section 2B exceptions, item iv, to permit the Owner to construct
a building addition to the existing grocery store building not to exceed 16,000 sq ft; with a total
building area, to include the existing covered front canopy area, not to exceed 86,000 sq ft.
Currently the existing WinCo Foods building utilizes the total grocery store (45,000 sq ft) and
drug store (22,000 sq ft) maximum gross leasable square footage as outlined in the CZA,
Section 2B. To allow for the proposed WinCo Foods addition (described under "Building
Permit," below), an amendment to the CZA is required. An amendment to the CZA, per Section
3, is allowed by the City or the Owner by filing an application, which "shall be considered and
heard in the same manner as a City -initiated quasi-judicial rezone of the property."
File #21-103295 (UPlll) - Master Land Use Application for a Land Use Decision: This application
proposes the demolition of an existing auxiliary end cap restaurant building connected to the
west wall of the existing WinCo Foods store to accommodate an addition to the WinCo Foods
store. The existing WinCo Foods building is 66,108 sq ft, and the end cap building proposed for
demolition is 8,760 sq ft. The proposed addition would add 15,483 sq ft to the existing WinCo
Foods building, for a total footprint of 81,591 square feet. This final proposed square footage is
6,723 sq ft greater than that of the existing building footprint on site (WinCo Foods store plus
auxiliary end cap building). The project would also include painting the exterior of the building,
interior remodeling, associated site/utility improvements to accommodate the building
addition, updated accessible parking/routing per current accessibility standards, and street
frontage improvements as shown in the site plans. The total property area associated with this
project is 8.43 acres.
12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person to understand the precise location
of your proposed project, including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range, if
known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide the range or boundaries of the
site(s). Provide a legal description, site plan, vicinity map, and topographic map, if reasonably
available. While you should submit any plans required by the agency, you are not required to
duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with any permit applications related to this checklist.
Proposed project is located at 160 SW Campus Drive, Federal Way, WA.
