Comment Response Letter
Proposed Residential Development
Southwest 344th Street
Federal Way, Washington
PN:2421039018
Doc ID: Pena.SW344thSt.CRL(1)
This letter provides our response to comments from the City of Federal Way (the City) for the
proposed residential development to be constructed at Southwest 344th Street in Federal Way,
Washington (PN: 2421039018). We have previously prepared a geotechnical report for the site,
Geotechnical Engineering Report, Proposed Residential Development, dated November 20, 2017. We
have also reviewed our work previously completed in the vicinity of the site for others.
Our understanding of the project and the City comments is based on email from Ms.
Nagorski in which the City asks for the following:
Prior to EN plan approval, the applicant shall either:
a) Route the detention pond discharge so that it bypasses the existing infiltration
facility, or provide infiltration testing and mitigation to assure original
infiltration rates are maintained; or
b) Provide geotechnical review of the effect groundwater will have on the
detention pond, and whether or not a pond liner will be needed.
This letter was prepared to satisfy the second option. Previously we have completed borings
and monitoring wells for the adjacent storm ponds. We have also completed test pits at the subject
site. Logs of the explorations are included in Appendix A. Based on this data we offer the following
comments:
Static groundwater was observed to be more than 30 feet below existing grades.
Perched groundwater observed at the site is likely perched on the dense glacial till and
should be mitigated by the proposed development and associated stormwater systems
at the site. It is our opinion the volume of perched groundwater in the post developed
conditions should not affect the storage capacity of the proposed detention pond.
Pena.SW344thSt.CRL(1))
June 18, 2019
page 12
2. Based on our grain size analyses and test pit explorations, the near surface soils at the
site are very dense glacial till with a thin weathered till cap. These soils were found to
have over 30 percent fines. Where the glacial till is undisturbed, it should be suitable for
the detention facility without a liner. Where the glacial till is disturbed, it should be
either lined or removed and recompacted as a till liner at least 18 inches thick. Till liners
require material with at least 20 percent fines and compaction to at least 95 percent of
maximum dry density with a moisture content at or slightly above the optimum moisture
content. Provided these conditions are met, it is our opinion an additional liner should
not be required.
We have prepared this letter for use by the Pena's and other members of the design team,
for use in the design of a portion of this project. The data used in preparing this report and this
report should be provided to prospective contractors for their bidding or estimating purposes only.
Our report, conclusions and interpretations are based on our subsurface explorations, data from
others and limited site reconnaissance, and should not be construed as a warranty of the
subsurface conditions.
Variations in subsurface conditions are possible between the explorations and may also occur
with time. A contingency for unanticipated conditions should be included in the budget and schedule.
Sufficient monitoring, testing and consultation should be provided by our firm during construction to
confirm that the conditions encountered are consistent with those indicated by the explorations, to
provide recommendations for design changes should the conditions revealed during the work differ
from those anticipated, and to evaluate whether earthwork and foundation installation activities
comply with contract plans and specifications.
The scope of our services does not include services related to environmental remediation and
construction safety precautions. Our recommendations are not intended to direct the contractor's
methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, except as specifically described in our report for
consideration in design.
If there are any changes in the loads, grades, locations, configurations or type of facilities to be
constructed, the conclusions and recommendations presented in this report may not be fully
applicable. If such changes are made, we should be given the opportunity to review our
recommendations and provide written modifications or verifications, as appropriate.

City staff has reviewed the environmental checklist submitted on July 22, 2019, for the Class IV General —
Forest Practice Application for the Pena Short Plat II. Pursuant to Federal Way .Devised Code (FWRC)
19.10.020(8), the city has determined the application complete as of August 9, 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 Entdronmental Policy Act (SEPA). A copy of the
Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) is enclosed.
A 14-day comment period is required by the SEPA riles (WAC 197-11-340). A notice inviting comments will
be published in the Federal llay Mirror, 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 August 16, 2019. The city will prepare
two Public Notice Boards that the applicant will be responsible for posting on site by August 16,
2019. Further posting instructions and the notice boards will be available for pick-up at Will Call at the Permit
Center Receptionist Desk on the 2nd floor of City Hall on August 13, 2019.
At the end of the comment period, the department will determine if the DNS should be withdrawn,
modified, or issued as proposed. All final determinations may be appealed within 21 days (September 20,
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. Approval or denial of the proposal will be made by the appropriate administrative or
legislative body vested with that authority.
After a final decision has been made on your proposal, 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 v-ith 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.

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 any judicial appeal (including the SEPA portion of that appeal)
if your proposal is one for which the city's action contains a specified time period within any court appeals
must be made.

The lead agency for this proposal has determined that it does not have a probable significant adverse
impact on the environment, and an environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required under RCW
43.21 C.030(2)(c). 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.
This DNS is issued under WAC 197-11-340(2); the lead agency will not act on this proposal for 14 days
from the date below. Comments must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. on August 30, 2019.
Unless modified by the city, this determination will become final following the above comment deadline.
Any person aggrieved of the city's final determination may file an appeal. Anyone may appeal this
determination to the Federal Way City Clerk (33325 81h Avenue South, Federal Way, WA 98003), no later
than 5:00 p.m. on September 20, 2019, by a written letter stating the reason for the appeal of the
determination. You should be prepared to make specific factual objections.

SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
Pulpose ofC1mckliri.
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 applicantr VkI4
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 and/or 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 ofyour 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 LeadAgendes:
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 nonpr jectproposals: BLelpj
For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans, and programs), complete the applicable parts of
sections A and B, plus the SUP'1.EN]ENTAl. SI [11-.T I'OR NON PR r?cI' A(.XlQN5 art 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
nonprojects) questions in Part B (Environmental Elements) that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the
proposal.

10. 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.) VLeI
The approved preliminary Pena Short Plat, 11 is applying for Forest Practices Application as required with the
volume of merchantable timber that will be harvested during the clearing phase of the site development. The
information contained in this environmental checklist is a broad explanation of the proposed site
development project. However, the SEPA is relevant to and required due to the Forest Practices proposed on
the site and not the approved preliminary short plat in particular.
The project includes the 8 single-family lots to be served by public roads, water, and sewer. Due to the City of
Federal Way's Comprehensive Plan connecting SW 344th St at the site location, in addition to meeting street
standard requirements fronting the property, the project is required to dedicate a total of 0.86 acres of the
site as public right-of-way. The remaining portion of the site for the 8 units and storm tract is 1.67 acres.
Trees included in the future SW 344th St are not included in this proposal.
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 ate not required to duplicate maps or detailed plans submitted with
any permit applications related to this checklist. leilpj
The approved preliminary Pena Short Plat 11 project includes King County tax parcel 242103-9018, which

1. Earth
a. General description of the site V1t1W
(underline/circle one): Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountainous, other
The site is generally flat with a gradual slope downwards from east of the site.
b. What is the steepest slope on the site (approximate percent slope)? P14LIW
±13% for a depth of 10 feet over 75 feet.
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. tlpl
Bulletin #050 — May 1, 2014 Page 3 of 14 k:\Handouts\Environmental Checklist May 2014
From the Geotechnical Engineering Report provided by GeoResources:
The USDA Natural Resource Conservation Survey (NRCS) Web Soil Survey maps the site as being
underlain by Alderwood gravelly sandy loam. The Alderwood soils are typically derived from glacial till,
form on slopes of 0 to 8 percent, are listed as having a "slight" erosion hazard when exposed, and are
included in hydrologic soils group B. Our test pits encountered somewhat variable subsurface conditions
that generally confirmed the mapped stratigraphy at the site. In general, we encountered about 0.5 to 1
foot of topsoil mantling 2 to 5 feet of brown to tan, orange stained silty sand to silty sand with gravel.
The gravel fraction appeared to increase with depth. We interpret these shallow soils to be weathered
glacial till that appeared to be in a loose to medium dense, moist condition. Below the surficial soils, our
explorations encountered tan to tan and grey silty sand with gravel in a dense to very dense, moist
condition to the full depth explored. We interpret these deeper soils to be consistent with glacial till.
d. Are there surface indications or history of unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If so, describe.
iel
None known.
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. Jhel
The purposes of the site fill and grade activities are to provide an adequate and level surface for the single-
family units and infrastructure. There will be approximately 900 cubic yards of usable cut and 7,460 cubic
yards of required fill, for a net fill quantity of 6,740 CYDS. Road sections and topsoil for landscape are not
included in this calculation.
f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing, construction, or use? If so, generally describe. VLelpl
Erosion could occur as a result of clearing and construction, particularly if earthwork is completed during
periods of rainfall. TESC measures will be implemented as approved by the City prior to construction.
g. About what percent of the site will be covered with impervious surfaces after project construction (for
example, asphalt or buildings)? DILIW
Less than 40% of the total site will be covered with impervious surfaces, or approximately 43,560 SF,
including the improvements located in public right-of-way.
h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion, or other impacts to the earth, if any: 1el
The applicant will institute an erosion control plan to be used during earthwork and construction.
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. ftlo
Some heavy machinery exhaust and dust particulates generated primarily by construction equipment
could result during the development phase of this project.
b. Are there any off -site sources of emissions or odor that may affect your proposal? If so, generally
describe. VLe1W
None known.
c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emissions or other impacts to air, if any: hel
All construction equipment will be in proper working order and regulated for emissions by the
manufacturer and local emissions laws. Vehicles entering and leaving the site will also be regulated for
emissions by state and local emissions laws. During construction the site will be watered as necessary to
keep any dust from impacting surrounding air quality.

2) Describe the source of runoff (including stormwater) and method of collection and disposal, if any
(include quantities, if known). Where will this water flow? Will this water flow into other waters? If
so, describe. VLelp
Stormwater runoff from the lots will drain to catch basins and conveyed via pipes to the proposed
stormwater detention facility, then discharge to the existing catch basin located on the east side of 18rh
Ave SW. From there, runoff is conveyed to the existing infiltration pond to the southwest corner of the
existing intersection of SW 344th Place and 18th Ave SW.
Stormwater runoff for the frontage half street improvements along the SW 344th PI ROW will continue
to drain to existing catch basins along the ROW's flow line and conveyed west into the existing
infiltration pond at the southwest corner.
Bulletin #050 — May 1, 2014 Page 5 of 14 k:\Handouts\Environmental Checklist May 2014
3) Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally describe. VIdW
Suspended soils and hydrocarbons associated with automobiles may potentially enter the ground
waters via storm water. This would be mitigated with the water quality facilities provided in the
adjacent infiltration pond for right-of-way improvements.
4) Does the proposal alter or otherwise affect drainage patterns in the vicinity of the site? If so,
describe.
