RE: File No. 16-100330-00-SU; BOUNDARY LINE ADJUSTMENT APPROVAL
Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment, 105 SW 292"`' Street, Federal Way

Jim Ferrell, Mayor
The City of Federal Way has completed an administrative review of the Boundary Line Adjustment
(BLA) application to alter the interior lot lines between lots 17 to 22 inclusive and lots 1 to 6 inclusive, all
in Block 14, Buenna Plat. The 12 lots were previously consolidated into one tax parcel, King County tax
parcel 119600 0985. The subject property is developed with a single-family residence.
The Department of Community Development hereby approves the BLA with condition, based on the
BLA map drawing prepared by ESM, signed by Zachary T. Lennon, dated February 13, 2017.
BACKGROUND
The applicant proposes to alter the interior lot lines between the existing 12 lots, and consolidate and
reorganize the lot lines into three individual lots. The subject property is zoned Residential Single -Family
(RS) 9.6. The existing 12 lots comprise approximately 39,000 square feet of area. The three revised lots
are sized as follows: Lot A: 9,665 square feet. Lot B: 16,640 square feet, and Lot C: 12,695 square feet.
DECISIONAL CRITERIA
City staff has determined the BLA meets decisional criteria set forth in Federal IVUy Revised Code
(FWRC) Chapter 18.10:
The BLA is a minor alteration in the location of lot boundaries on existing lots. The BLA will
not increase the number of lots, nor diminish the size of open space or other protected
environments.
2. The BLA will not diminish the size of any lot so as to result in a lot of less square footage
than prescribed in the RS 9.6 zoning district.
3. The BLA will not result in the reduction of setbacks or site coverage to less than prescribed in
the RS 9.6 zoning district.
4. All lots resulting from the BLA will be in conformance with the design standards of the city's
subdivision title.
Mr. Veeder
March 3, 2017

Lot A is developed with an existing single-family residence. The existing single-family
residence does not conform to the minimum 20-foot front setback requirement or the 10-foot
(corner lot) minimum side setback requirement of FWRC 19.200.010. Approval of the BLA
does not make the existing residence any more or any less nonconforming than current
conditions in respect to building setbacks from property lines due to its location in the NW
corner of the lot.
Access to the site is proposed over a 20-foot-wide shared access easement with 16-foot pavement
width on Lot B perdrawing standard No 3-2CC of the Federal Way Public Works Department
Development Standards. The access easement also has been approved by South King Fire and
Rescue. The shared panhandle vehicle access shall not be constructed within the five-foot stream
buffer setback area. The BLA map includes the following note: Construction of this shared
ingress/egress driveway on Lot B shall be as depicted on Veeder BLA Access Exhibit, by ESM
Consulting Engineers LLC, Drawing Name EN-01 (1 1/14/16) on file with the City of Federal Way.
FWRC 19.145.220 regulates activity and land disturbance within 50 feet of a geologically hazardous
area (GHA). The BLA encompasses a geologically hazardous area, consisting of a steep slope area
exceeding 40 percent slope on a portion of Lot B. The BLA map shows a 25-foot setback from the toe
of the steep slope on Lot B, for future development on Lot B, which is a 25-foot reduction of the
FWRC 19.145.220 prescribed 50-foot setback. Pursuant to FWRC 19.145.230.4, the 25-foot steep
slope setback (50 percent reduction) in lieu of the required 50-foot GHA setback is hereby approved.
The 50 percent steep slope setback reduction is based on the GeoResources LLC updated July 13,
2016 Geotechnical Engineering Report, which on page 6 summarizes and concludes that a 25-foot
setback is adequate and should be applied to the proposed site.
Lot B contains an adequate building envelope for construction of a single-family residence outside
the 25-foot GHA setback.
FWRC Chapter 19.145, Article III, regulates development in fish and wildlife habitat conservation
areas ("FWHCA") and their associated buffers. The applicant provided a Critical Areas Report for the
Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment prepared by Cedarock Consultants dated August 1], 2016.
According to the Cedarock Report, there is a Type Np perennial non -fish habitat stream located on
the SE corner of the property on Lot C. A Type Np stream requires a 50-foot setback pursuant to
FWRC 19.145.270(1). The BLA shows a 50-foot-wide undisturbed stream setback, and precludes
clearing, grading, building, land disturbance, etc. within the 50-foot stream setback area. Lot C
contains an adequate building envelope for construction of a single-family residence outside the 50-
foot stream setback area. In order to protect the stream and stream buffer, prior to recording the BLA
the owner shall place a minimum of four stream buffer demarcation signs on the site along the
perimeter of the stream buffer. The content, location and installation details of the signs shall be
approved by the Community Development Department prior to installation.
RECORDING
Pursuant to FWRC 18.10.060, all boundary line adjustments shall be recorded with the King County
Recorder's Office. To finalize the BLA process, please use the enclosed Resubrnitlal Inforinalion form
and submit to the Permit Center one mylar or paper original signed BLA map and two signed paper

copies, along with payment for estimated recording fees in the amount of $168.00.' If you are providing
payment with a check, please make it payable to City of Federal Way. Also, cross out the Health
Department signature block on the BLA map. The City will sign the BLA document and have it recorded
at King County at the expense of the applicant. You will be provided a conformed copy of the recorded
BLA.
Please note: Blue ink is not acceptable on documents and maps which will be recorded; all signatures and
writing must be made with permanent black ink.
CONDITION OF APPROVAL
• Prior to recording the BLA, the applicant shall install a minimum of four stream buffer demarcation
signs on the site. The content, location and installation details of the signs shall be approved by the
Community Development Department prior to installation.
CLOSING
This land use decision does not waive compliance with future City of Federal Way codes, policies, and
standards relating to this development. If you have any questions regarding this decision, please contact
Planner Jim Harris at 253-835-2652, or jim.harris@cityoffederalway. corn.

Re: File 16-100330-00-SU; NOTICE OF COMPLETE APPLICATION & TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMENTS
Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment, 105 SW 292°d Street, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Veeder:
On March 14, 2016, the Department of Community Development received the April 28, 2015, Cedarock
Stream Classification report and the June 15, 2015, GeoResources LLC Geotechnical Engineering Report for
the proposed Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA).
NOTICE OF COMPLETE APPLICATION
Since these two documents referenced above were submitted, the BLA application is now considered
complete. The BLA application was deemed complete as of March 24, 2016. This determination of
completeness is based on a review of your submittal relative to applicable requirements referenced within
Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Chapter 18.10 `Boundary Line Adjustments."
A 120-day time line for reviewing the BLA application has started as of this date. The city's development
regulations allow the department 120 days from the date that an application is deemed complete to take action
on the application. However, the 120-day time line can be stopped any time the city requests corrections
and/or additional information.
A technical review of the BLA application has now begun under the provisions of FWRC 18.10, `Boundary
Line Adjustment." The following represent the Planning Division technical comments of the BLA application.
TECHNICAL COMMENTS
Streams / Wetlands
On March 14, 2016, the city received your April 28, 2015, Stream Classification report by Cedarock
Consultants Inc. This is the first time this report has been submitted to the city. The April 28, 2015, Cedarock
report discusses stream classifications and regulations for both the FWRC regulations in effect in April 2015
and for critical area regulations that were being reviewed and considered for adoption by the City Council in
early 2015.
Mr. Craig Veeder
Page 2
April 5, 2016
The Federal Way City Council adopted updated environmentally critical areas regulations on June 16, 2015,
and this BLA application must comply with these current regulations.
As the Cedarock report is significantly deficient in addressing the current FWRC critical are regulations, city
staff has determined that there is no benefit to sending out your April 2015 Cedarock Stream Classification
report to our city stream/wetland consultant. When you submit an updated stream/wetland report, the city
will determine at that time if it is necessary to send out the critical area report to our consultant for third -party
peer review at the applicant's expense. If required, the city establishes a contract and scope of work with the
city's on -call environmental consultant. As this is a private development proposal, the applicant must pre -
fund any third party peer review. We are unable to determine the potential cost of peer review until the
appropriate reports are submitted and a scope of work is prepared by city review consultants.
Please address each of the specific comments below:
A. At this time, since the updated critical area regulations have been adopted by the City Council, the
Cedarock report needs to be amended to address the adopted critical area regulations. The amended
report needs to address specifically at a minimum the following:
1. Your environmental consultant report needs to identify the inapplicability of old (previous) FWRC
critical area regulations.
2. An amended/updated Cedarock report needs to clearly address and include each item in FWRC
19.145.080(2)(a-j). The Cedarock report does not address, or adequately address, 19.145.080(2) a, b, c,
d, f, g, h, and i.
3. The BLA map shows a 50-foot wetland buffer in the northwest corner of the subject property;
however, the April 28, 2015, Cedarock report makes no mention of a wetland on or nearby the
subject property. Please clarify.
4. Your environmental consultant needs to address in writing the presence, or lack of presence, of any
wetlands on or within 225 feet of the subject property, per FWCC Chapter 19.145.
5. The April 28, 2015, Cedarock report concludes there is a class Np stream on the subject property.
The report needs to -identify specifically why the stream does not meet the definition of a Type F
stream, per FWRC 19.145.260 and Washington.Administrative Code (WAC) 222-16-030. The report
needs to specifically address downstream conditions that exist that result in the stream not being
classified as a Type F stream.
B. The BLA map needs to be revised to accurately depict the location of the stream; reference the stream
delineation report and date; accurately depict the correct stream buffer width; and depict the five-foot
building setback requirement of FWRC 19.145.160.
C. The BLA map currently shows a proposed private access (driveway) within the wetland buffer and five-
foot setback. This needs to be revised to first correctly delineate and show the critical area
stream/wetland, and correct corresponding buffer width; and second, the driveway needs to be outside
of any critical areas, buffer, and five-foot setback. In general, intrusions such as driveways, buildings,
utilities, and other improvements are not outright permitted in stream and/or wetland buffers.
File #16-100330-00-SU Doc. I.D. 72838
Mr. Craig Veeder
Page 3
April 5, 2016
D. We strongly encourage you to design the proposal so all critical area intrusions such as driveways,
buildings, utilities, and other improvements being located in buffers are avoided. In general, any critical
area intrusions or buffer intrusions require additional review process, additional review fees, additional
review time, and may not ultimately be approved. In summary, stream buffer intrusions are subject to a
Process III application review, must meet the decisional criteria of FWRC 19.145.330, and must meet the
mitigation sequencing requirements of FWRC 19.145.130.
Geologically Hazardous Areas
The June 8, 2015, GeoResources LLC Geotechnical Engineering Report was prepared under the city's prior
geologically hazardous area (GHA) regulations. This June 8, 2015, report does not meet the current applicable
FWRC requirements, and must be updated or amended to meet current FWRC regulations.
The city's geologically hazardous areas regulations were amended by the City Council on June 16, 2015. In
summary, the code revisions resulted in regulating development activity on or within 50 feet of a GHA, while
the repealed code regulated development activity on or within 25 feet of a GHA. Also, the criterion to permit
development activity on or within 50 feet of the GHA was modified by the City Council.
Please provide an updated or amended geotechnical engineering report in compliance with current FWRC
GHA regulations in FWRC 19.145.220 — 19.145.250. The amended report must specifically address the
regulation pertaining to development within 50 feet of a. GHA as specified in the FWRC 19.145.220 below:
"19.145.220(3) The director may permit development activities on or within 50 feet of a geologically
hazardous area if the development will not be at risk of damage due to the geologic hazard and will
not lead to or create any increased slide, seismic or erosion hazard."
Boundary Line Adjustment Map
The BLA map needs to reference the preparer and date of the associated wetland/stream report. The BLA
map needs to show the stream and/or wetland delineations, appropriate buffers, and buffer setback per the
FWRC.
The toe of slope line shown on the BLA map makes no logical sense as it does not follow, or roughly follow
contour lines, and there is no supporting documentation to justify the toe of slope depicted on the BLA map.
The BLA map needs to reference the preparer and date of the associated geotechnical report. The BLA map
needs to show the geotechnical hazard (40 percent slope area) as depicted on the GeoResources report Figure 2b.
Building setback lines (BSBL's) need to be shown on each of the proposed lots.
Additional Technical Comments
City staff will conduct another complete technical review of the proposed BLA after the revised critical area
studies and BLA map revisions discussed above are submitted to the city, and reviewed as required by city
staff and consultants. Given the extent of the substantive comments above, I anticipate that the city will then
provide additional technical comments following our second review, and additional revisions may be required
in order to comply with FWRC requirements to approve the BLA.

Federal Way, Washington Critical Areas Report
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Description
An existing lot located at 105 SW 292nd Street, Federal Way, Washington will be sub -divided
into three smaller lots for future redevelopment under a Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA)
process (see Vicinity Map and proposed BLA layout in Appendix).
1.2 Purpose of this Report
This Critical Areas Report (CAR) was prepared per City of Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC
19.145.080(2)) to evaluate environmental effects of the BLA on critical areas. Mitigation is
evaluated where necessary to meet code requirements and restore any lost functions.
1.3 Report Author
This report was prepared by Carl Hadley, a professional biologist with over 25 years of
experience evaluating effects of land use changes on aquatic habitat in Western Washington.
Geotechnical evaluation was provided by Brad Biggerstaff, LEG, GeoResources, LLC. Wetland
evaluation was provided by Ed Sewall, PWS, Senior Wetlands Ecologist with Sewall Wetland
Consulting, Inc.

Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment
Federal Way, Washington Critical Areas Report
2.0 EXISTING CONDITIONS
This section provides a description of critical areas on and within 100-feet of the Veeder
property under existing conditions. Critical areas within 100-feet of the work area include a
stream, steep slope, and buffers/setbacks associated with the stream and slope (Figure 1).
Adjoining properties include similar critical areas.
The site was visited in 2015 and 2016 to evaluate critical area conditions. The entire site was
walked each time.
2.1 Streams
An evaluation of the watercourse crossing the northwest corner of the property was made to
determine appropriate water type classification under the City of Federal Way Zoning And
Development Code (Chapter 19.05.190). Local, state and federal databases, maps, and
reference reports were also searched for any information on the subject watercourse.
The watercourse is only briefly acknowledged or mapped by a few jurisdictions (chiefly DNR and
City of Federal Way). Aside from mention in a URS stream inventory report prepared for the
City of Federal in 2001, and a habitat assessment for an upstream development' prepared in
2013, there is no evidence the watercourse has ever received much interest or been studied in
detail. A memo from Jim Harris (City of Federal Way Senior Planner) to Isaac Conlen (City of
Federal Way Planning Manager) on February 3, 2015 summarizes information available in the
City archives with respect to the stream ratingz. Multiple evaluations conducted by City of
Federal Way, King County, and private consulting firms, along with the City of Federal Way
Hearing Examiner, have all concluded that the stream should be classified as a minor stream
under the previous Federal Way municipal code. A minor stream is a water course or route,
formed by nature, including those which have been modified by humans, along which surface
waters naturally and normally flow and which do not contain or support resident or migratory
fish. Under the current code this would be a Type N stream. While DNR calls the watercourse a
Type F, the DNR work (except in areas where forest practices are ongoing) is normally done
remotely and based on large scale slope gradient and basin size estimates.
The project site was visited on April 17, 2015 and again on August 4, 2016 by Carl Hadley, a
professional fisheries biologist. The watercourse on the subject property was walked in its
entirety (about 80 feet). The channel upstream (southwest) of the property (approximately 80
feet) was observed from a vantage point on the subject property. From the northern property
line, the watercourse flows north down the slope to Puget Sound. For much of the route
downslope the watercourse is contained within relatively steep culverts (gradients up to 23

percent). Private property issues prevented seeing the entire route. The discharge point at the
beach was examined to see if fish had access to the stream from Puget Sound.
The watercourse on -site is contained within a natural topographic low that meanders across
the northwest corner of the property. The channel has a well-defined bed and banks with a
width at the ordinary high water (OHW) mark ranging between 2-feet and 5-feet wide (Figure
2). Channel depth at OHW was 6" to 12" with a bankfull depth of over 12". Substrate ranged
from small gravel to silt. Habitat was dominated by shallow (0.5") riffle with one small pool
about 8" in depth. Channel gradient was approximately 3 percent. Instream flow was
estimated to be approximately 0.06 cfs (30 gpm) in April, and about 0.01 cfs (5 gpm) in August.
A water temperature of 12 oC was measured in April just after noon on a relatively warm day
with no recent rainfall. This low temperature is indicative of a groundwater source, or
substantial time flowing through culverts or subsurface.
It appears that well more than half of the watercourse has been culverted indicating that it has
a long history of being treated more like a stormwater conveyance than a natural watercourse.
If fish had ever been observed, piping of the watercourse would not have been allowed.
Figure 2. Subject watercourse on the Veeder property (April 2015).
The one minor pool was quietly observed for approximately 10 minutes with no observations of
fish. The pool provides the only area meeting classic salmonid habitat characteristics and is the
most likely place where fish would be present if they were in the area.
Fish access from Puget Sound into the watercourse is not currently possible. The watercourse
discharges onto the beach via a concrete culvert embedded in a seawall (Figure 3). The culvert
is buried deeply under an adjacent house, concrete patio, and driveway. Several other culverts
are also present along the route up the steep (300-foot, 15 to 20 percent) slope to SW 292nd
Street.

Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment
Federal Way, Washington Critical Areas Report
The subject watercourse meets the definition of a "Stream" under the current Federal Way
Code. The channel appears to have been naturally formed and contains a natural source of
flow. The watercourse is located within a topographic low that extends a long distance up- and
downslope. However, the short (80-foot) section of channel on the subject property appears to
be the only relatively undisturbed section of channel in the 750 feet of channel that were
observed (Figure 4). The rest of the channel appears to have a long history of being
channelized and/or piped.
Figure 3. Subject watercourse discharge location to Puget Sound
Figure 4. Subject watercourse upstream (L) and downstream (R) of the Veeder property
It is my opinion that this channel is very unlikely to contain fish. There is no possibility for
anadromous salmon to access the stream under existing conditions due to steep slopes and
very long, steep culverts. The few short and steep open channel reaches do not contain habitat
that would provide year-round, or long-term conditions suitable for a resident fish population
to complete a life -cycle (spawn and rear). While the channel on the subject property minimally
provides some suitable habitat, it is an isolated section among much longer reaches without

any habitat suitability. Therefore, with no access to permanent fish -bearing waters in Puget
Sound, it would be almost impossible for a fish population to persist in this area.
It is believed based on the evidence seen to date that there is year-round continuous flow in
this channel under normal conditions.
Based on the study conducted for this project, I agree with other studies conducted to date that
the stream would most appropriately be classified as a Type Np under FWRC
19.05.190.Stream(1). The stream does not meet either of the two criteria in the City code for
classification as fish -bearing (FWRC 19.05.190.Stream(2)):
(a) Streams where naturally reoccurring use by fish has been documented by a
government agency; or
(b) Streams that are fish passable, as determined by a qualified professional based on
review of stream flow, gradient and natural barriers, and criteria for fish passability
established by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
2.2 Wetlands
The site was inspected on August 4, 2016 by a professional wetlands scientist. The site was
reviewed using methodology described in the Washington State Wetlands Identification
Manual (WADOE, March 1997). This is the methodology currently recognized by the City of
Federal Way and the State of Washington for wetland determinations and delineations. The
site was also inspected using the methodology described in the Corps of Engineers Wetlands
Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987), and the Western Mountains, Valleys and
Coast region Supplement (Version 2.0) dated June 24, 2010, as required by the US Army Corps
of Engineers. Soil colors were identified using the 1990 Edited and Revised Edition of the
Munsell Soil Color Charts (Kollmorgen Instruments Corp. 1990).
With the exception of the steep slope in the southeast corner of the site, the site has a gentle
slope from the south and east towards a low point on the northwest side of the site containing
a well-defined portion of stream. Vegetation on the site consists of an overstory of big leaf
maple and red alder with an understory of Himalayan blackberry, salmonberry, and Indian
plum.
Soil pits excavated throughout the site were found to be a sandy loam soil with colors ranging
from 10YR 3/3-3/4. All were found to be dry with no hydric indicators. No areas on the site
were found with wetland characteristics.
2.3 Geologic Hazard Areas
The property contains an area of steep slope with an average inclination of approximately 50
percent in the southeast corner of the lot (see BLA figure in Appendix). The slope has a 30 foot
vertical rise over about 60 horizontal feet. A rockery wall supports part of the slope. The slope

extends to the south and east onto neighboring properties. The slope is partially supported
with rip -rap and vegetated with trees, and few shrubs, and a great deal of English ivy. Potential
geologic hazards on and near the site were examined and evaluated by a licensed geotechnical
engineer3. While the more steeply sloping portions of the site meet the technical definition of
both an Erosion Hazard and Landslide Hazard area per the code, no evidence of existing
geologic hazards (soil erosion, soil movement or deep-seated landslide activity) as defined in
FWRC 19.05.070(G) was found on the subject property or is documented in the published
geological literature.
The steep slope and setback area are located more than 150 feet away from the channel so
there is little risk of sediment delivery to the stream as a result of any erosion or slope failure.
2.4 Fish and Wildlife Habitat
As described in Section 2.1 no fish are believed to be located on or within more than 300 feet of
the site.
The wildlife habitat review consisted of a site -specific survey and consultation with the
Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife database4. The site and surrounding lands have
been developed mostly as moderate -density single -unit residential housing (Figure 1). Some
suitable wildlife habitat for avian species is found in the area, in particular the presence of a
number of medium to large deciduous trees, and small patches of native shrubbery on the site
and nearby. However, overall wildlife habitat quality has been significantly modified by past
clearing, fragmentation, and introduction of non-native landscaping species (e.g. English ivy and
turf grasses) (Figure 5).
Species that may be expected to be found intermittently on this site are coyote, Douglas and
eastern grey squirrels, other assorted rodent species, deer, woodpeckers, and song birds.
There are a number of large deciduous trees suitable for eagle, hawk, and owl perching on the
site. No nesting activity by sensitive species is known to have occurred on the site or within
more than 300-feet of the site in the recent past (WDFW 2016).

3.0 PROJECT EFFECTS ON CRITICAL AREAS
Critical areas on and near the site are described in Section 2.0 of this report. This section
describes potential actions that will be taken within or near critical areas and any proposed
changes to the functions or values that could occur. Critical area functions and values for fish
and wildlife species are based on WDFW guideliness and other best available science6.
3.1 Streams
The on -site stream will be left undisturbed. A 50-foot buffer from OHW as required for Type Np
streams under FWRC 19.145.270(1)(b) will also be left undisturbed. No impacts to the stream
functions or values are expected under the proposed BLA.

Federal Way, Washington Critical Areas Report
3.2 Wetlands
No wetlands, seeps or springs were noted on or near the site or reported in sensitive areas
portfolios. No groundwater with the potential for daylighting was reported during geotechnical
analysis of underlying soils. The BLA is not expected to have any adverse effect on wetlands.
3.3 Geologic Hazard Areas
Under the BLA the steep slope and required setback have been identified (see BLA figure in
Appendix). No actions are proposed on the slope or within the slope setback. Project
geotechnical engineers have reviewed the proposed BLA and have concluded that based on
their site observations, data review, subsurface explorations and engineering analyses, it is
their opinion that a residential development is feasible from a geotechnical standpoint,
provided that recommendations included in the report are incorporated into the project plans'.
3.4 Fish and Wildlife Habitat
The BLA has identified a road alignment for access to the future Lot B. This road will be located
in an area covered primarily with existing turf grasses. It will not disturb any critical areas or
their buffers/setbacks. Reasonably sized locations that will avoid any disturbance to critical
areas or their buffers/setbacks are available for future houses on each of the lots. While some
large tree removal may occur with development, there are mitigation opportunities available
on the steep slope and within the stream buffer that can provide overall enhancement of fish
and wildlife habitat (See Section 4.2). Overall, there will likely be some short term disturbance
with expected future development, but no significant long term adverse effects on fish and
wildlife habitat.
3.5 Critical Areas Effects Summary
Avoidance of significant impacts to critical areas on the site and nearby can reasonably be
expected under the proposed BLA layout. No adverse affects on critical areas are predicted.
4.0 MITIGATION
4.1 Impact Avoidance
The primary means of mitigation under the BLA proposed for this property has been avoidance
of existing critical areas (stream and geologic hazards) and their buffers/setbacks. Suitable road
and house locations are provided in the BLA layout whereby all critical areas can be avoided
during final development. With implementation of the following measures, no impacts due to
the BLA are expected.
• No ground disturbance shall take place within the steep slope area or setback, or within
the stream or stream buffer.

Federal Way, Washington Critical Areas Report
■ Additional protection measures recommended in the GeoResources report referenced
in Section 3.3. shall be applied.
4.2 Compensatory Mitigation
While some large tree and native shrub removal can reasonably be expected with future
development, there are mitigation opportunities available on the steep slope and within the
stream buffer that can provide overall enhancement of fish and wildlife habitat. These
opportunities are described below for future consideration when specific redevelopment plans
are being prepared.
• All exotic plant species (primarily Himalayan blackberry and English ivy) could be
removed from the steep slope area and stream buffer. This includes dense infestations
of English ivy growing up most of the native trees on the southern half of the property.
• Trash and landscaping waste materials (branches, lawn clippings, etc.) could be removed
from the stream buffer.
• There are opportunities for further enhancement of the stream buffer with native
groundcovers, shrubs, and trees.

INTRODUCTION P�
This geotechnical report presents the results of our geotechnical site evaluation,
subsurface explorations, laboratory testing, and geotechnical analyses for the proposed
residential development. The site is located at 105 SW 292nd Street in the Redondo area of
Federal Way, Washington. The general location of the site is shown on the attached Site
Vicinity Map, Figure 1.
Our understanding of the project is based on our discussions with you, members of the
design team, our review of the plans provided by ESM Consulting Engineers, our review of the
available geologic and soils data, our May 29, 2015 site visit, and our experience in the area.
We understand the site development will consist of a boundary line adjustment, the razing of
the existing residence and construction of a new residence in its place along with two new
residences accessed from a new north -south shared driveway extending from SW 292nd
Street. We anticipate the residences will be one or two-story, wood -framed construction and
which may include daylight basement configurations supported on conventional concrete
foundations.
PURPOSE & SCOPE
The purpose of our services was to evaluate the surface and subsurface conditions at
the site as a basis for providing geotechnical recommendations and design criteria for the
proposed residential development. We also assessed potential adverse impacts to and from the
slopes located within the site area. Specifically, our scope of services for the project included
the following:
1. Reviewing the available geologic, hydrogeologic and geotechnical data for the site
area;
2. Monitoring the completion of track hoe test pits at the site, depths of up to
approximately 10 feet below the existing grades. The test pits were backfilled with
native soil material, bucket tamped but not otherwise compacted;
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 2
3. Collecting select soil samples for additional evaluation and testing in our laboratory, as
appropriate;
4. Completing grain size tests to develop preliminary infiltration rates for the site soils, if
feasible.
5. Assessing potential geologic hazards, including landslide, seismic, and erosion hazard
areas per the City of Federal Way Critical Area Ordinance;
6. Providing recommendations for site earthwork activities, including grading and
excavation with construction considerations;
7. Providing design geotechnical recommendations and design criteria for site grading
activities, subgrade preparation, the proposed building foundations, floor slabs, retaining
walls, and site drainage, including pavement subgrade preparation;
8. Providing our opinion regarding the feasibility of infiltrating stormwater at the site,
including a preliminary infiltration rate, as appropriate; and
9. Summarizing our conclusions and recommendations with supporting data in a written
report.
Our services were originally outlined in our May 13, 2015 Proposal for Geotechnical
Engineering Services. We received signed authorization to proceed with our scope of
services from Marianne Veeder on May 22, 2015.
SITE CONDITIONS
Surface Conditions
The site consists of a single tax parcel located at 105 SW 292nd Street in the Redondo
area of Federal Way, Washington. The site is rectangular in shape, measuring approximately
150 feet wide (east to west) by 260 feet deep (north to south) and encompassing
approximately 0.9 acres. The site is currently developed with a single family residence in the
NE portion of the site, a gravel driveway, and associated utilities. A sewer easement crosses
the parcel from east to west at approximately the north and south midpoint. A older rockery
wall along the north margin of the sewer easement situated in the western portion of the site
provides approximately 4 to 6 feet of grade separation. The site is bounded by W 292nd
Street on the North, 1 st Avenue South on the east, a right-of-way easement to the south and
existing residential development to the west.
Based on a review of topographic data provided by King County public GIS and
observations in the field, the site generally slopes down from the southeast to northwest. The
southeast portion of the site slopes down below the right-of-way for 1 st Avenue South at
inclinations of approximately 50 percent and gradually becomes gently sloping after about 100
feet. Below the steeply sloping area, the remainder of the parcel slopes gently to the northwest
at inclinations of 7 to 12 percent. Vertical relief of the steep slope area is about 45 to 50 feet,
while total topographic relief across the site is on the order of 70 to 75 feet.
Surface water was observed in a small drainage channel along the western margin of
the site. The surface water appeared to be artificially channelized and discharged from the
site into a culvert near the SW 292nd Street right-of-way.
No evidence of soil erosion, soil movement or deep-seated landslide activity was
observed on the site at the time of our site visit, or is documented on the published geological
literature.
Site Soils
The USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey maps
the soils in the area of the site as Alderwood & Kitsap soil (AkF) and Indianola loamy fine sand
(InC). The Alderwood-Kitsap soils form on slopes of 25 to 70 percent and have a "severe"
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR

Page 3
erosion hazard when exposed. The Indianola soils are derived from sandy glacial outwash
that form on slopes of 4 to 15 percent and have a "moderate" erosion hazard when exposed.
A copy of the SCS map for the site vicinity is attached as Figure 3.
Site Geology
The Geological Map of the Poverty Bay 7.5-minute Quadrangle, Washington by Booth,
Waldron, and Troost (2003) indicates the site is underlain by fine-grained facies of glacial
deposits of pre -Olympia age and Vashon age recessional sandy lacustrine deposits (Qvrs).
The pre -Olympia deposits consist of interbedded gravel, sand and silt that were deposited
prior to the Olympia age of glaciation, but are of indeterminate age. These deposits have
been subsequently overridden by the continental ice mass associated with Vashon glaciation
and are in a dense to very dense condition. The recessional sandy lacustrine deposits were
generally deposited during the Vashon Stade of Fraser glaciation. These deposits consist of
lightly stratified to laminated sands and silts deposited in meltwater ponds and lakes during
the retreat of the continental ice mass. An excerpt of the above referenced map is included as
Figure 4.
Subsurface Explorations
On March 13, 2015, a GeoResources geologist was on site and monitored the
excavation of five test pits to depths of up to 8 feet below existing grades. The test pits were
excavated by a small track mounted machine operated by licensed earthwork contractors.
The locations of the test pits were selected by GeoResources personnel in the field
based on discussions regarding the proposed development, along with site access limitations
and consideration for underground utilities. A field geologist from our office continuously
monitored the test pits, maintained logs of the subsurface conditions encountered, obtained
representative soil samples, and observed pertinent site features. Representative soil
samples obtained from the test pits were placed in sealed plastic bags and taken to a
laboratory for further examination and testing as deemed necessary. Each test pit was then
backfilled with the excavated soils and bucket tamped in place.
The test pits excavated and reviewed as part of this evaluation indicate the subsurface
conditions at specific locations only, as actual subsurface conditions can vary across the site.
Furthermore, the nature and extent of such variation would not become evident until additional
explorations are performed or until construction activities have begun. Based on our
experience in the area and extent of prior explorations in the area, it is our opinion that the
soils encountered in the borings are generally representative of the soils at the site. The
approximate locations of the borings are indicated on the attached Site and Exploration Plan
as Figure 2.
Subsurface Conditions
Our test pits encountered variable subsurface conditions that generally confirmed the
mapped stratigraphy. The test pits extended to depths ranging from 6 to 8.5 feet below the
existing ground surface. Our test pits generally encountered'/ to 1'/ feet of topsoil overlying
light brown silty fine to medium sand with intermittent lens of blue silty sand in a medium dense
to dense condition to the full depth explored. We interpret these soils to be glaciolacustrine
deposits.
The soils encountered were visually classified in accordance with the Unified Soil
Classification System (USCS) described in Figure 5. The test pit logs are included as Figures
6a and 6b.
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR

Grain Size Analysis
Geotechnical laboratory tests were performed on select samples retrieved from the
borings to determine soil index and engineering properties encountered. Laboratory testing
included visual soil classification per ASTM D: 2488, moisture content determinations per
ASTM D: 2216, grain size analyses and Atterberg limits. Grain size analyses tests were
performed in accordance with the ASTM D: 422 standard procedures. The laboratory test
results are included in Figure 7.
Groundwater Conditions
Very slow groundwater seepage was observed in Test Pit TP-3 at the time of out
excavation. We interpret the observed seepage in the test pit to be indicative of perched
groundwater. Perched groundwater develops when the vertical infiltration rate of precipitation
through a more permeable soil is slowed at depth by a deeper, less permeable soil type. We
expect that perched groundwater may develop seasonally atop the deeper and denser older
fine-grained glacial deposits at the site. We anticipate fluctuations in the local groundwater
levels likely will occur in response to precipitation patterns, off -site construction activities, and
site utilization. After the site is developed, the amount of seasonal perched groundwater
should decrease over time. Table 4, summarizes our depth to and elevation of groundwater
encountered in our explorations.
GEOLOGIC HAZARDS
Chapter 19.05.070 G of the City of Federal Way Revised Code (updated July 6, 2016)
defines a geologically hazardous area as "areas which because of their susceptibility to erosion,
landsliding, seismic or other geological events require specific studies to determine appropriate
buffers or property use." The following sections address erosion hazard areas, landslide hazard
areas, and seismic hazard areas per the Federal Way Revised Code.
Erosion Hazard Areas per Federal Way Revised Code (19.05.070 G (1))
The City of Federal Way code defines erosion hazard areas as "areas identified by the
U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resource Conservation Service as having a
moderate to severe or severe to very severe rill and inter -rill erosion hazard due to natural
agents such as wind, rain, splash, frost action or stream flow, those areas containing the
following group of soils when they occur on slopes of 15 percent or greater., Alderwood-Kitsap
("AkF'), Alderwood gravelly sandy loam ("AgD'), Kitsap silt loam ("KpD'), Everett ("EvD'), and
Indianola (`InD'); and those areas impacted by shore land and/or stream bank erosion."
The USDA NRCS maps the soils on the flatter upland area as the Alderwood soils; the
Alderwood soils typically have "slight" or "moderate to severe" erosion hazards, depending on
slope inclination. The soils along the more steeply sloping southern and western margins of
the site are mapped as the Alderwood-Kitsap formation which have a "servere" erosion
hazard. No portion of the site is impacted by stream or shoreline erosion.
Based on the mapping, the more steeply sloping portions of the site meet the technical
definition of an Erosion Hazard area per the City of Federal Way Revised Code.
Landslide Hazard Areas per Federal Way Revised Code (19.05.070 G (2))
The Federal Way City Revised Code defines landslide hazard areas as "hose areas
potentially subject to episodic downslope movement of a mass of soil or rock including, but not
limited to, the following areas:
(a) Any area with a combination of.
(i) Slopes greater than 15 percent;
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 5
(ii) Permeable sediment, predominately sand and gravel, overlying relatively
impermeable sediment or bedrock, typically silt and clay, and
(N) Springs or groundwater seepage.
(b) Any area that has shown movement during the Holocene epoch, from 10,000 years
ago to the present, or that is underlain by mass wastage debris of that epoch.
(c) Any area potentially unstable as a result of rapid stream incision, stream bank
erosion or undercutting by wave action.
(d) Any area located in a ravine or on an active alluvial fan, presently or potentially
subject to inundation by debris flows or flooding.
(e) Those areas mapped as Class U (unstable), UOS (unstable old slides), and URS
(unstable recent slides) by the Department of Ecology's Coastal Zone Atlas.
(t) Areas designated as quaternary slumps, earthflows, mudflows, lahars, or landslides
on maps published by the U.S. Geological Survey or Washington State
Department of Natural Resources.
(g) Slopes having gradients greater than 80 percent subject to rockfall during seismic
shaking.
(h) Any area with a slope of 40 percent or steeper and with a vertical relief of 10 or
more feet except areas composed of consolidated rock. A slope is delineated by
establishing its toe and top and is measured by averaging the inclination over at
least 10 feet of vertical relief."
From the above listed indicators, we offer the following comments:
The slopes on the south side of the parcel are greater than 15 percent, but no
permeable sediments over impermeable sediments were observed in our explorations, and no
groundwater seepage was observed at the time of our site visit. There was no evidence of
recent/holocene epoch slope instability on the site at the time of our visit. The drainage in the
east portion of the site was relatively gently sloping and did not exhibit any evidence of rapid
incision or stream bank erosion at the time of our site visit culverts had also been installed.
No area of alluvial fans was noted or was observed on or within the vicinity of the subject site.
The site is mapped as "stable" by the Department of Ecology's Coastal Zone Atlas. The site is
not mapped as a quaternary slump, earthflow, mudflow, lahar, or landslide by the U.S.
Geological Survey or the Department of Natural Resources. There are no slopes greater than
80 percent located on or near the site. There is a slope of greater than 40 percent with more
than 10 feet of vertical relief in the southeast corner of the site.
Based on our observations and literature review, the more steeply sloping southeast
portion of the site meets the technical criteria of a landslide hazard area.
Seismic Hazards per Federal Way Revised Code (19.05.070 G (3))
The City of Federal Way Municipal Code defines seismic hazard areas as "those areas
subject to severe risk of earthquake damage as a result of seismically induced ground
shaking, slope failure, settlement or soil liquefaction, or surface faulting. These conditions
occur in areas underlain by cohesionless soils of low density usually in association with a
shallow groundwater table."
According the City of Federal Way Municipal Code, the proposed residential
plat will be required to be designed and constructed in accordance with the 20121nternational
Building Code (IBC). Based on the inferred range of Standard Penetration Test (SPT) values,
it is our opinion that the project site could be adequately classified as a Site Class D in
accordance with the 2015 IBC Section 1613.3.2/ASCE 7-05 Table 20.3-1. This is based on
the likely range of equivalent SPT (Standard Penetration Test) blow counts for the soil types
observed in the site area. These conditions were assumed to be representative for the
conditions based on our experience in the vicinity of the site.

Buffers/Setbacks per City of Federal Way Revised Code 19.145.230-240
Per the FWRC 19.145.230, landslide hazard areas shall have a standard buffer of 50
feet, measured from the top, toe, and sides of the slope. Buffers and setbacks depend on the
sensitivity of the landslide hazard area and may be reduced within the landslide hazard area
when a qualified professional demonstrates that improvements will not cause an increased
landslide hazard or will not be at risk of damage by the landslide hazard.
Erosion and seismic hazard areas do not have standard buffers; however, all proposed
improvements within erosion or seismic hazard areas shall follow the recommendations within
this report. Improvements within an erosion hazard area shall not increase surface water
discharge beyond predevelopment conditions, decrease slope stability on adjacent properties,
or adversely impact other critical areas.
Based on our site observations and subsurface explorations, it is our opinion a 25-foot
setback is adequate and should be applied to the proposed site development. A reduction of
the setback could be achieved by supporting the toe of the slope with an engineered retaining
wall. The amount of reduction would be determined by the height and design of the wall.
Retaining wall recommendations and design criteria can be made available at your request.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on our site observations, data review, subsurface explorations and our
engineering analyses, it is our opinion that the proposed residential development is feasible
from a geotechnical standpoint, provided the recommendations included herein are
incorporated into the project plans.
New residence and other ancillary structures may be supported on new conventional
spread footings or floor slabs bearing on competent native soils or on structural fill placed
above these native soils. The native soils at the site contain a significant percentage of fines
(silt and clay -size particles), which makes them extremely moisture sensitive. These soils will
be difficult or impossible to compact as structural fill in wet weather conditions.
We understand that grading, for the most part, will be relatively minor, potentially cuts as
much as 8 to 12 feet in the northern and southern portions of the site. If grading activities take
place during the winter season, the owner should be prepared to import free -draining granular
material for use as structural fill and backfill.
Stormwater infiltration on the site does not appear feasible in the native soils. We
recommend that stormwater from new impervious surface on the site be collected and
conveyed to appropriate discharge point. Alternatively, Low Impact Development (LID)
options should also be considered for stormwater management. The control of surface and
shallow subsurface water in the construction area should increase the overall site stability.
Site Preparation and Grading
All structural areas on the site to be graded should be stripped of vegetation, organic
surface soils, and other deleterious materials including existing structures, foundations or
abandoned utility lines. Organic topsoil is not suitable for use as structural fill, but may be
used for limited depths in non-structural areas. Stripping depths ranging from 12 to 18 inches
should be expected to remove these unsuitable soils. Areas of thicker topsoil or organic
debris may be encountered in areas of heavy vegetation or depressions, several of our
explorations did encounter upwards of 18 inches or topsoil/duff. Where placement of fill
material is required, the stripped/exposed subgrade areas should be compacted to a firm and
unyielding surface prior to placement of fill material. Excavations for debris removal should be
backfilled with structural fill compacted to the densities described in the "Structural Fill"
section of this report.
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 7
We recommend that a member of our staff verify the exposed subgrade conditions
after excavations are completed and prior to placement of structural fill or new foundations.
The exposed subgrade soil should be proof -rolled and compacted to a firm and unyielding
condition. We recommend that trees be removed by overturning in fill areas so that a majority
of the roots are removed. Excavations for tree stump removal should be backfilled with
structural fill compacted to the densities described in the "Structural Fill" section of this
report.
Soft, loose or otherwise unsuitable areas delineated during proof -rolling or probing
should be recompacted, if practical, or over -excavated and replaced with structural fill. The
depth and extent of overexcavation should be evaluated by our field representative at the time
of construction. The areas of fill should be evaluated during grading operations to determine if
they need mitigation; recompaction or removal.
Structural Fill
All material placed as fill associated with mass grading, as utility trench backfill, under
building areas, or under roadways should be placed as structural fill. The structural fill should
be placed in horizontal lifts of appropriate thickness to allow adequate and uniform
compaction of each lift. Fill should be compacted to at least 95 percent of MDD (maximum
dry density as determined in accordance with ASTM D-1557).
The appropriate lift thickness will depend on the fill characteristics and compaction
equipment used. We recommend that the appropriate lift thickness be evaluated by our field
representative during construction. We recommend that our representative be present during
site grading activities to observe the work and perform field density tests.
The suitability of material for use as structural fill will depend on the gradation and
moisture content of the soil. As the amount of fines (material passing US No. 200 sieve)
increases, soil becomes increasingly sensitive to small changes in moisture content and
adequate compaction becomes more difficult to achieve. During wet weather, we recommend
use of well -graded sand and gravel with less than 5 percent (by weight) passing the US
No. 200 sieve based on that fraction passing the 3/4-inch sieve, such as Gravel Backfill for
Walls (WSDOT 9-03.12(2)). If prolonged dry weather prevails during the earthwork and
foundation installation phase of construction, higher fines content (up to 10 to 12 percent) may
be acceptable.
Material placed for structural fill should be free of debris, organic matter, trash and
cobbles greater than 6-inches in diameter. The moisture content of the fill material should be
adjusted as necessary for proper compaction.
Suitability of On -Site Materials as Fill
During dry weather construction, non -organic on -site soil may be considered for use as
structural fill; provided it meets the criteria described above in the "Structural Fill" section and
can be compacted as recommended. If the soil material is over -optimum in moisture content
when excavated, it will be necessary to aerate or dry the soil prior to placement as structural
fill. Shallow soils on the site were observed to be wet of optimum.
Based on our explorations and laboratory testing, the native glaciolacustrine soils on
site contain a significant percentage of fines. The high fines content makes these soils
extremely moisture sensitive and these soils will be difficult to impossible to adequately
compact during extended periods of wet weather or where seepage occurs.
We recommend that completed graded -areas be restricted from traffic or protected
prior to wet weather conditions. The graded areas may be protected by paving, placing
asphalt -treated base, a layer of free -draining material such as pit run sand and gravel or clean
crushed rock material containing less than 5 percent fines, or some combination of the above.

Temporary Excavations
All job site safety issues and precautions are the responsibility of the contractor
providing services/work. The following cut/fill slope guidelines are provided for planning
purposes only. Temporary cut slopes will likely be necessary during grading operations or
utility installation.
All excavations at the site associated with confined spaces, such as utility trenches
and retaining walls, must be completed in accordance with local, state, or federal
requirements. Based on current Washington Industrial Safety and Health Act (WISHA, WAC
296-155-66401) regulations, the shallow upper weathered soils on the site would be classified
as Type C soils, where as the deeper, stiffer soils would be classified as Type B soils.
According to WISHA, for temporary excavations of less than 20 feet in depth, the side
slopes in Type B soils should be laid back at a slope inclination of 1 H:1 V, and Type C soils
should be laid back at a slope inclination of 1.5H:1 V or flatter from the toe to top of the slope.
It should be recognized that slopes of this nature do ravel and require occasional
maintenance. All exposed slope faces should be covered with a durable reinforced plastic
membrane, jute matting, or other erosion control mats during construction to prevent slope
raveling and rutting during periods of precipitation. These guidelines assume that all surface
loads are kept at a minimum distance of at least one half the depth of the cut away from the
top of the slope and that significant seepage is not present on the slope face. Flatter cut
slopes will be necessary where significant raveling or seepage occurs, or if construction
materials will be stockpiled along the top of the slope.
Where it is not feasible to slope the site soils back at these inclinations, a retaining
structure should be considered. Where retaining structures are greater than 4-feet in height
(bottom of footing to top of structure) or have slopes of greater than 15 percent above them,
they should be engineered per Washington Administrative Code (WAC 51-16-080 item 5).
This information is provided solely for the benefit of the owner and other design consultants,
and should not be construed to imply that GeoResources assumes responsibility for job site
safety. It is understood that job site safety is the sole responsibility of the project contractor.
Foundation Support
Based on the subsurface soil conditions encountered across the site, we recommend
that spread footings for the new residences be founded on medium dense native soils or on
appropriately prepared structural fill that extends to suitable native soils.
The soil at the base of the footing excavations should be disturbed as little as possible.
All loose, soft or unsuitable material should be removed or recompacted, as appropriate. A
representative from our firm should observe the foundation excavations to determine if
suitable bearing surfaces have been prepared, particularly in the areas where the foundation
will be situated on fill material.
We recommend a minimum width of 24 inches for isolated footings and at least 12
inches for single story and 16 inches for two story continuous wall footings. All footing
elements should be embedded at least 18 inches below grade for frost protection. Footings
founded as described above can be designed using an allowable soil bearing capacity of
2,500 psf (pounds per square foot) for combined dead and long-term live loads. The weight of
the footing and overlying backfill may be neglected. The allowable bearing value may be
increased by one-third for transient loads such as those induced by seismic events or wind
loads.
Lateral loads may be resisted by friction on the base of footings and floor slabs and as
passive pressure on the sides of footings. We recommend that an allowable coefficient of
friction of 0.30 be used to calculate friction between the concrete and the underlying soil.
Passive pressure may be determined using an allowable equivalent fluid density of 300 pcf
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 9
(pounds per cubic foot). Passive resistance from soil should be ignored in the upper 1 foot. A
factor of safety of 1.5 has been applied to these values.
We estimate that settlements of footings designed and constructed as recommended
will be less than 1 inch, for the anticipated load conditions, with differential settlements
between comparably loaded footings of 1/2 inch or less. Most of the settlements should occur
essentially as loads are being applied. However, disturbance of the foundation subgrade
during construction could result in larger settlements than predicted. We recommend that all
foundations be provided with footing drains.
Floor Slab Support
Slab -on -grade floors, where constructed, should be supported on the medium dense
native soils or on structural fill prepared as described above. Areas of old fill material should
be evaluated during grading activity for suitability of structural support. Areas of significant
organic debris should be removed.
We recommend that floor slabs be directly underlain by a minimum 4-inch thick pea
gravel or washed 5/8 inch crushed rock. This layer should be placed and compacted to an
unyielding condition and should contain less than 2 percent fines.
A synthetic vapor retarder is recommended to control moisture migration through the
slabs. This is of particular importance where the foundation elements are underlain by the
silty till or lake sediments, or where moisture migration through the slab is an issue, such as
where adhesives are used to anchor carpet or tile to the slab.
A subgrade modulus of 400 kcf (kips per cubic foot) may be used for floor slab design.
We estimate that settlement of the floor slabs designed and constructed as recommended, will
be 1/2 inch or less over a span of 50 feet.
Utilities
We expect that underground utilities, such as sanitary sewer, storm, and water will
consist of a series of pipes, vaults, manholes, and catch basins. The utility excavations
should be performed in accordance with appropriate governmental guidelines. Utility pipes
should be bedded and backfilled in accordance with American Public Works Association
(APWA) specifications.
We anticipate that the on -site, non -organic soils will be suitable for use as structural
backfill. If import soil is used as utility trench backfill, it should consist of a material meeting
the wet weather fill recommendations provided in the "Structural Fill" section of this report.
We recommend that utility backfill soils be compacted according to the recommendations
provided in the "Structural Fill" section of this report.
Controlled -density fill (CDF) is most often suitable for use as backfill in any weather
condition and could be used as a convenient, but more expensive, alternative to granular
backfill soil. CDF backfill does not require compaction but should have a minimum
compressive strength of 250 psi commensurate with the application.
Pavement Subgrades
Pavement subgrade areas should be prepared as previously described in the "Site
Preparation" section of this report. The prepared subgrade should be evaluated by proof -
rolling with a fully -loaded dump truck or equivalent point load equipment. Soft, loose or wet
areas that are disclosed should be recompacted or removed, as appropriate. Over -excavated
areas should be backfilled with compacted structural fill and sub -base material. The upper 2
feet of roadway subgrade should have a density of at least 95 percent of the MDD (ASTM D-
1577). Based on our explorations and laboratory testing, subgrade soils on most of the site
have a high percentage of fines. As SLIch, the top 9-10 inches of the pavement section should
consist of non -frost susceptible materials (HMA or less than 7% fines).

Erosion Control
Weathering, erosion and the resulting surficial sloughing and shallow land sliding are
natural processes that affect steep slope areas. As noted, no evidence of surficial raveling or
sloughing was observed at the site. To manage and reduce the potential for these natural
processes, we recommend the following:
No drainage of concentrated surface water or significant sheet flow onto or near the
steep slope area.
No fill should be placed within the buffer or setback zone unless retained by engineered
retaining walls or constructed as an engineered fill.
Grading should be limited to providing surface grades that promote surface flows away
from the top of slope to an appropriate discharge location beyond the toe of the slope,
such as into Puget Sound.
Erosion protection measures will need to be in place prior to the start of grading
activity on the site. Erosion hazards can be mitigated by applying Best management Practices
(BMP's) outlined in the Washington State Department of Ecology's (DOE) Stormwater
Management Manual for Western Washington and the City of Federal Way's stormwater
requirements (which uses the 2009 King County Surface Water Design Manual).
Site Drainage
All ground surfaces, pavements and sidewalks at the site should be sloped away from
structures. The site should also be carefully graded to ensure positive drainage away from all
structures and property lines. Surface water runoff from the roof area, driveways, perimeter
footing drains, and wall drains, should be collected, tightlined, and conveyed to an appropriate
discharge point.
We recommend that footing drains are installed for the residence in accordance with IBC
1807.4.2, and basement walls (if utilized) have a wall drain as describe above. The roof drain
should not be connected to the footing drain.
Based on our site evaluation and laboratory analyses, it is our opinion that the
infiltration of stormwater at the site is not feasible. Stormwater should be collected and
conveyed to an appropriate discharge point.
To manage and reduce the potential for the erosion processes, we recommend that no
drainage of concentrated surface water or significant sheet flow be directed onto or near the
steep slope area. Drainage from the roof area, driveways, perimeter footing drains, and wall
drains, should be collected and tightlined to an appropriate discharge point. To intercept
groundwater and to improve slope stability, we recommend that a "French" or interceptor drain
be installed near top of the bluff. The drain will intercept surface water that would flow
uncontrolled over the slope, improving the overall stability of the site. Based on the observed
subsurface conditions, we anticipate that the drain will need to be at least 10 feet in depth.
The drain should be continued until it daylights or is connected to a catch basin. We
recommend that the collected stormwater be diverted to a series of catch basins and dispersed
as described above.
Wet Weather Earthwork Considerations
In the Puget Sound area, wet weather generally begins about mid -October and
continues through about May, although rainy periods could occur at any time of year.
Therefore, it is strongly encouraged that earthwork be scheduled during the dry weather
months of June through September. Most of the soil at the site contains sufficient fines to
produce an unstable mixture when wet. Such soil is highly susceptible to changes in water
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 11
content and tends to become unstable and impossible to proof -roll and compact if the
moisture content exceeds the optimum.
In addition, during wet weather months, the groundwater levels could increase,
resulting in seepage into site excavations. Performing earthwork during dry weather would
reduce these problems and costs associated with rainwater, construction traffic, and handling
of wet soil. However, should wet weather/wet condition earthwork be unavoidable, the
following recommendations are provided:
• The ground surface in and surrounding the construction area should be sloped as
much as possible to promote runoff of precipitation away from work areas and to
prevent ponding of water.
• Work areas or slopes should be covered with plastic. The use of sloping, ditching,
sumps, dewatering, and other measures should be employed as necessary to permit
proper completion of the work.
• Earthwork should be accomplished in small sections to minimize exposure to wet
conditions. That is, each section should be small enough so that the removal of
unsuitable soils and placement and compaction of clean structural fill could be
accomplished on the same day. The size of construction equipment may have to be
limited to prevent soil disturbance. It may be necessary to excavate soils with a
backhoe, or equivalent, and locate them so that equipment does not pass over the
excavated area. Thus, subgrade disturbance caused by equipment traffic would be
minimized.
• Fill material should consist of clean, well -graded, sand and gravel, of which not more
than 5 percent fines by dry weight passes the No. 200 mesh sieve, based on
wet -sieving the fraction passing the 3/-inch mesh sieve. The gravel content should
range from between 20 and 50 percent retained on a No. 4 mesh sieve. The fines
should be non -plastic.
• No exposed soil should be left uncompacted and exposed to moisture. A smooth -
drum vibratory roller, or equivalent, should roll the surface to seal out as much water
as possible.
■ In -place soil or fill soil that becomes wet and unstable and/or too wet to suitably
compact should be removed and replaced with clean, granular soil (see gradation
requirements above).
• Excavation and placement of structural fill material should be observed on a full-time
basis by a geotechnical engineer (or representative) experienced in wet weather/wet
condition earthwork to determine that all work is being accomplished in accordance
with the project specifications and our recommendations.
• Grading and earthwork should not be accomplished during periods of heavy,
continuous rainfall.
We recommend that the above requirements for wet weather/wet condition earthwork be
incorporated into the contract specifications.
Construction Observation
We recommend that GeoResources, LLC be retained to observe the geotechnical
aspects of construction, particularly the foundations, fill placement and compaction, and
drainage activities. This observation would allow us to verify the subsurface conditions as
they are exposed during construction and to determine that work is accomplished in
accordance with our recommendations. If conditions encountered during construction differ
Veeder.SW292ndSt.GR
June 8, 2015
Page 12
from those anticipated, we can provide recommendations for the conditions actually
encountered.
LIMITATIONS
We have prepared this report for Marianne Veeder, ESM Consulting Engineering and
members of the design team for use in evaluating a portion of this project. The data used in
preparing this report and this report should be provided to prospective contractors. Our report
analyses, conclusions and interpretations are based on data from others, our subsurface
explorations 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
evaluations or 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.
If there are 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 or site conditions change, we should be given the
opportunity to review our recommendations and provide written modifications or verifications, as
appropriate.

Re: File @16-100330-00-SU; PLANNING DIVISION & PUBLIC WORKS TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMENTS
Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment, 105 SW 292nd Street, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Veeder:
The Department of Community Development has conducted a review of information submitted to the city
on December 9, 2016, for the Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA) under the above file number.
TECHNICAL COMMENTS
The following represents the city's technical review comments on the submitted materials. Please address
each of the following and revise the BLA plans and documents accordingly:
1. After reviewing the Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) requirements regarding property line definition, the
20-foot building setback (BSBL) from the east property line of proposed Lot C is not required by FWRC
19.05.160. The elimination of this 20-foot setback will. provide a loxger building envelope. The 20-foot
front setback line should be depicted as shown on the enclosed sketch.
2. Revise the BLA map to eliminate the BSBL from running over and through the existing sanitary sewer
easement (lots A, B and C).
3. The < (less than) symbol near the top right corner of sheet 2 and 3 in regard to the slope, should be a >
symbol referring to "greater than" 40%. Please revise.
4. On sheet 2, relocate the note which says, "Drainage easement for shared driveway recorded under
recording number " to a location that is within the ingress/egress easement area. The
note location is unclear and may be misunderstood as it is printed within the stream buffer on the map.
This note should be located/printed within the ingress/egress panhandle, or at another location with a
clear arrow pointing to the appropriate location.
5. Is the drainage easement referenced above also proposed in the sewer easement, as there is an arrow
pointing that direction on the plan? If yes, is this permitted by Lakehaven Water and Sewer District?
6. Add a note to the BLA that states, "The shared panhandle driveway shall not be constructed within the
five-foot critical area buffer setback. Construction of the shared ingress/egress driveway on lot B shall be
Mr. Craig Veeder
Page 2 of 2
January 12, 2017
as depicted on Veeder BLA Access Exhibit, by ESM Consulting Engineers LLC, Drawing Name EN-01
(11/14/16), on file with the City of Federal Way in the BLA file #16-100330-SU."
7. What is the status of the critical area signs as required per FWRC 19.145.160? These signs must be
installed before approval of the BLA and maintained in perpetuity.
8. Please have the engineer and/or geologist who prepared the GeoResources LLC report (revised July 13,
2016), clarify the statement in the first paragraph of page 6 of the report. Specifically, it appears there is
an error in the report by omitting a word (see attached red -line). Due to the importance of this subject
and the resultant reading of the text in the report, which seems to result in a meaning directly opposite of
the intended meaning, this report error must be clarified.
This comment was previously identified in the October 7, 2016, review and was not addressed in the
December 7, 2016, ESM resubmittal. The GeoResources Report was revised July 13, 2016, which
precedes the October 7, 2016 review, and a revision/clarification to the July 13, 2016, GeoResources
report has not been provided to the city.
9. Are there other documents/easements to record concurrent with the BLA? Let me know, as we will be
getting an estimate of recording fees and will forward to you.
Resubmit three sets of signed and notarized final BLA drawings for recording. Please contact me at
jim.harris@cityoffederalway.com if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Jim Harris
Planner

Dear Jim:
Please accept this letter and accompanying materials for the resubmittal of the Veeder
Boundary Line Adjustment.
Based on the letter received from the City on October 7, 2016, we have compiled the
updated reports and documents for resubmittal to allow continued processing of the
Boundary Line Adjustment application which was previously submitted on January 22,
2016. The following items are being resubmitted for your consideration:
Boundary Line Adjustment:
Geotechnical Report (Revised); GeoResources, LLC - dated July 13, 2016.
Boundary Line Adjustment Map (Revised); ESM Consulting Engineers
Please review the revised BLA documents and provide us with your approval to proceed
with final plat recording. If there are additional comments or changes required, please
provide those as soon as possible so we can make the changes and provide another
revised copy of the BLA. For clarity purposes, we have copied the City's Technical
Comments below in Italics and have provided our responses in Bold.

2. An Access and utility easement must be provided in favor of Lot C, over
the panhandle portion of Lot B, as the stream and buffer preclude direct
access to SW 299" Street
A callout had been added to the site plan for the access and utility
easement provided to Lot C. The easement accesses Lot C by crossing
the panhandle of Lot B to avoid intrusion into the stream and associated
buffer. Please see revised BLA document
3. The BLA map must include notes as to the limitations for development
and disturbance in both critical areas (steep slope and stream) on the
subject site. Reference the required language in FWRC 19.145.145(2).
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC. Notes have been included as required as to the limitations of
development within both critical areas on the property.
4. Demarcation of the critical areas is required per FWRC 19.145.160, by
placing critical area signs every 150 feet at the edge of the critical area
buffer. These signs must be installed before approval of the BLA and
maintained in perpetuity.
As required per FWRC 19.145.160, critical area signs will be installed
along the edge of the critical areas buffer prior to recording.5
5. As currently proposed, the northerly most approximately 50 feet of the flag
stem handle of Lot B does not meet the applicable 20-foot minimum width
requirement of FWRC 19.05.160(p) (enc)
We have confirmed that the flag stem width is 20+ feet along its entire
length. We have added several measurements to the most current copy
of the BLA. Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting
Engineers, LLC.
6. As proposed, the preliminary BLA shows the 20-foot-wide access
panhandle for proposed lots B and C located within the 5-foot critical area
building setback Pursuant to FWRC 19.145.160, only the following are
permitted in a critical area building setback landscaping, building
overhangs, and fences and railings
We recognize the 5-foot critical area setback and show it on our plans.
We repositioned the 20-foot wide panhandle to the north and provide a
16' wide shared driveway while remaining out of the 5-foot critical area
building setback Please see the attached marked up Sheet 3 for
reference. By way of a note on the BLA, we can ensure that the shared
driveway is constructed outside of the 5-foot critical area setback
7. The BLA plans must be revised to remove the panhandle driveway from
the critical area setback
Mr. Jim Harris
December 6, 2016
Page 3
The panhandle can be within the critical area setback as long as the
improvements remain outside of the critical area setback. This was your
direction when we met with you. We -are providing an exhibit titled
'Veeder BLA Access Exhibit," that shows how the access way will avoid
both the critical areas buffer and critical areas buffer setback area.
8. Given that the access to proposed lots B and C appears to be limited to
the proposed location, and this location is situated between a critical area
and an ex/sting house, a stream buffer setback reduction may be a viable
option. In summary, a stream buffer reduction requires a Process 3 land
use application, application fee (contact permit center for Process 3 fee
information), and will require additional input from your stream consultant
as identified in FWRC 19.145.330(2). Stream buffer reductions are
permissible under FWRC 19.145.330 and must meet the decisional criteria
of FWRC 19.145.330(3). A Process 3 stream buffer reduction is a
discretionary land use application review, requires submittal of additional
application materials, requires public notice, and the decision is a written
decision by the Director of Community Development
As the driveway is not within the critical area setback or nor is the buffer,
there is no need for a Process 3 Land Use. In our meeting, you
encouraged the redesign specifically to avoid having to go through a
Process 3.
9. Let me know if you would like to further discuss the Process 3 stream
buffer reduction, and l can provide you with an application submittal
checklist and other appropriate information.
A Process 3 is not necessary based on the BLA we have provided.
10. South King Fire and Rescue has reviewed the BLA and noted that a
minimum of 16 feet of pavement is required in the panhandle access for
lots B and C. Pursuant to Public Works Development Standard drawing 3-
2CC (end,, 'If the farthest point of the building envelope is greater than 150
feet in length from the approved fire apparatus access road, then South
King Fire and Rescue Administrative Policy 10.006 shall apply."
Lots B & C are over 150' from SW 292"d Street and will need to be
compliant with South King Fire and Rescue Admin Policy 10.006. As
such we have provided a note on the BLA stating that Lots B & C will
both be required to have approved automatic fire sprinkler systems. This
provides for compliance with policy 10.006 without having to construct a
20-foot wide fire apparatus access with a turnaround.
11. Please have the engineer and/or geologist who prepared the
GeoResources LLC report dated July 13, 2016,, clarify the statement in the
first paragraph of page 6 of the report Specifically, it appears there is an
error in the report by omitting a word. Due to the importance of this
subject and the resultant reading of the text in the report which seems to
Mr. Jim Harris
December 6, 2016
Page 4
result in a meaning directly opposite of the intended meaning, this report
error must be clarified.
Please see pages 6 of the Geotechnical Engineering Report provided by
GeoResources, LLC updated on July 13, 2016. The report wording has
been updated to properly reflect the meaning and context of the subject
12. The GeoResources July >3, 2016 report identifies that a 25-foot
geologically hazardous area (GHA) setback/buffer is adequate based on
the conditions of the site and surrounding area. City staff generally
concurs with the GeoResources recommendation, and will formalize the
GHA buffer decision pursuant to FWRC 19.145.220 in conjunction with the
final decision on the BLA by the Director of Community Development
13. Comments from Lakehaven Utility District dated September 2, 2016 are
enclosed for your review. Per email dated September 2, 2016 from Brain
Asbury.•
Utility conflicts should be identified and coordination should occur
as early as possible in the planning process
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting
Engineers, LLC. All coordination will occur as required.
2. Project will need to avoid encroachment with existing Lakehaven
facilities and easement(s)
The project avoids encroachments on all existing Lakehaven
facilities and easements.
3. The proposed Retaining Wall on portions of Lot B & C within the
existing sewer easement would be an encroachment to the
easement & sewer facilities and not typically allowed by
Lakehaven, and should be omitted from the existing easement
areas
Please see revised BLA map, the existing retaining wall has been
updated.
14. Use the current City of Fedefal Way Boundary Line Adjustment title block
emailed on September 12, 2016.
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC.
15. Correct the parcel number shown on the I00--scale plan view on sheet 1.
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC. The parcel number has been updated on the 100-scale plan view
on sheet 1.

16. Print the property owners' names on the authorization under their signature
lines
Please see the updated authorization form; the owners' names have
been printed below the signature lines.
17. An access and utility easement will need to be created and recorded for
Lots A and C across the panhandle of Lot B. The easement must be noted
on the plans with the recording number.
A callout and recording number has been added to the access and
utility easement provided to Lot A and C on the plan set
18. Show the driveway of the existing home to remain.
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC. The driveway to the existing home to remain has been added.
19. Show the nearest edge of the pavement within the public right-of-way.
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC. The nearest edge of pavement within the public right-of-way has
been added.
20. Note that access may not be taken off of 1st A venue S.
Please see revised BLA Map prepared by ESM Consulting Engineers,
LLC. A note has been added stating that access may not be taken off of
1 st Avenue S.
It is our understanding that the above items constitute a complete resubmittal for the
applications with the City of Federal Way. Should you have any questions, or require any
additional information, please contact me immediately. We look forward to working with
you on this project

COMPLETE APPLICATION
The application has now been deemed complete, as the Stream Delineation Report and Geotechnical
Engineering Report were submitted to the City on August 22, 2016. The boundary line adjustment
application is now ready for processing and review by the City.
Technical Comments
The following represents the City's technical review comments on the submitted materials. Please address
each of the following technical comments and revise the BLA plans and documents accordingly.
A 20-foot building setback (BSBL) from the east property line of proposed Lot C is required by
FWRC 19.05.160 property line definition. Revise the BLA map to show a 20-foot BSBL from the
east property line.
2. An access and utility easement must be provided in favor of Lot C, over the panhandle portion of Lot
B, as the stream and buffer preclude direct access to SW 292nd Street.
3. The BLA map must include notes as to the limitations for development and disturbance in both
critical areas (steep slope and stream) on the subject site. Reference the required language in FWRC
19.145.150(2).
4. Demarcation of the critical areas is required per FWRC 19.145.160, by placing critical area signs

5. As currently proposed, the northerly most approximately 50 feet of the flag stem handle of Lot B does
not meet the applicable 20-foot minimum width requirement of FWRC 19.05.160(p) (enc).
6. As proposed, the preliminary BLA shows the 20-foot-wide access panhandle for proposed lots B and
C located within the 5-foot critical area building setback. Pursuant to FWRC 19.145.160, only the
following are permitted in a critical area building setback: landscaping, building overhangs, and
fences and railings.
7. The BLA plans must be revised to remove the panhandle driveway from the critical area setback.
Given that the access to proposed lots B and C appears to be limited to the proposed location, and this
location is situated between a critical area and an existing house, a stream buffer setback reduction
may be a viable option. In summary, a stream buffer reduction requires a Process 3 land use

written decision by the Director of Community Development
9. Let me know if you would like to further discuss the Process 3 stream buffer reduction, and I can
provide you with an application submittal checklist and other appropriate information.
10. South King Fire and Rescue has reviewed the BLA and noted that a minimum of 16 feet of pavement
is required in the panhandle access for lots B and C. Pursuant to Public Works Development Standard
drawing 3-2CC (enc), "If the farthest point of the building envelope is greater than 150 feet in length
from the approved fire apparatus access road, then South King Fire and Rescue Administrative Policy
10.006 shall apply."
11. Please have the engineer and/or geologist who prepared the GeoResources LLC report dated July 13,
2016, clarify the statement in the first paragraph of page 6 of the report. Specifically, it appears there
is an error in the report by omitting a word. Due to the importance of this subject and the resultant
reading of the text in the report which seems to result in a meaning directly opposite of the intended
meaning, this report error must be clarified.
12. The GeoResources July 13, 2016 report identifies that a 25-foot geologically hazardous area (GHA)

FWRC 19.05.160 property line definition. Revise the BLA map to show a 20-foot BSBL from the
east property line.
2. An access and utility easement must be provided in favor of Lot C, over the panhandle portion of Lot
B, as the stream and buffer preclude direct access to SW 292"d Street.
3. The BLA map must include notes as to the limitations for development and disturbance in both
critical areas (steep slope and stream) on the subject site. Reference the required language in FWRC
19.145.150(2).
4. Demarcation of the critical areas is required per FWRC 19.145.160, by placing critical area signs 1
every 150 feet at the edge of the critical area buffer. These signs must be installed before approval of
the BLA and maintained in perpetuity.

5. As currently proposed, the northerly most approximately 50 feet of the flag stem handle of Lot B does
not meet the applicable 20-foot minimum width requirement of FWRC 19.05.160(p) (enc).
6. As proposed, the preliminary BLA shows the 20-foot-wide access panhandle for proposed lots B and
C located within the 5-foot critical area building setback. Pursuant to FWRC 19.145.160, only the
following are permitted in a critical area building setback: landscaping, building overhangs, and
fences and railings.
7. The BLA plans must be revised to remove the panhandle driveway from the critical area setback.
8. Given that the access to proposed lots B and C appears to be limited to the proposed location, and this
location is situated between a critical area and an existing house, a stream buffer setback reduction
may be a viable option. In summary, a stream buffer reduction requires a Process 3 land use
application, application fee (contact permit center for Process 3 fee information), and will require
additional input from your stream consultant as identified in FWRC 19.145.330(2). Stream buffer
reductions are permissible under FWRC 19.145.330 and must meet the decisional criteria of FWRC
19.145.330(3). A Process 3 stream buffer reduction is a discretionary land use application review,
requires submittal of additional application materials, requires public notice, and the decision is a
written decision by the Director of Community Development
9. Let me know if you would like to further discuss the Process 3 stream buffer reduction, and I can
provide you with an application submittal checklist and other appropriate information.
10. South King Fire and Rescue has reviewed the BLA and noted that a minimum of 16 feet of pavement
is required in the panhandle access for lots B and C. Pursuant to Public Works Development Standard
drawing 3-2CC (enc5, "If the farthest point of the building envelope is greater than 150 feet in length
from the approved fire apparatus access road, then South King Fire and Rescue Administrative Policy
10.006 shall apply."
11. Please have the engineer and/or geologist who prepared the GeoResources LLC report dated July 13,
2016, clarify the statement in the first paragraph of page 6 of the report. Specifically, it appears there
is an error in the report by omitting a word. Due to the importance of this subject and the resultant
reading of the text in the report which seems to result in a meaning directly opposite of the intended
meaning, this report error must be clarified.
12. The GeoResources July 13, 2016 report identifies that a 25-foot geologically hazardous area (GRA)
setback/buffer is adequate based on the conditions of the site and surrounding area. City staff
generally concurs with the GeoResources recommendation, and will fonnalize the GHA buffer
decision pursuant to FWRC 19.145.220 in conjunction with the final decision on the BLA by the
Director of Community Development.
13. Comments from Lakehaven Utility District dated September 2, 2016 are enclosed for your review.
The following comments are from the Federal Way Public Works Department review of the BLA and
must be appropriately addressed.
14. Use the current City of Federal Way Boundary Line Adjustment title block, emailed on September
12, 2016.

RE: File 16-100330-00-SU; Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment
105 SW 292Dd Street, Federal Way
Dear Jim:
Job No. 1829-001-014
Please accept this letter and accompanying materials for the resubmittal of the Veeder
Boundary Line Adjustment.
Based on the letter received from the City on April 5, 2016, we have compiled the
requested reports and documents for resubmittal to allow continued processing of the
Boundary Line Adjustment application which was previously submitted on January 22,
2016. The following items are being resubmitted for your consideration:
Boundary Line Adjustment:
o Critical Areas Report; Cedarock Consultants - dated August 11, 2016.
o Geotechnical Report (Revised); GeoResources, LLC - dated July 13, 2016.
o Boundary Line Adjustment Map (Revised); ESM Consulting Engineers
Please review the revised BLA documents and provide us with your approval to proceed
with final plat recording. If there are additional comments or changes required, please
provide those as soon as possible so we can make the changes and provide another
revised copy of the BLA. For clarity purposes we have copied the City's Technical
Comments below in Italics and have provided our responses in Bold.
Streams/Wetlands
A. At this time, since the updated critical area regulations have been adopted by the
City Council, the Cedarock report needs to be amended to address the adopted
critical area regulations The amended report needs to address specifically at a

Please see the Updated Critical Areas Report provided by Cedarock dated
August 11, 2016. The revised report specifically addresses FWRC 19.145.080(2)
a-j to adequately address all critical areas on the site.
3. The BLA map shows a 50-foot wetland buffer in the northwest corner of the
subject property; however, the April 28,, 2015, Cedarock report makes no mention
of a wetland on or nearby the subject property. Please clarify.
The BLA map was mislabeled with a wetland buffer where a stream buffer
should have been. Please see the updated BLA map provided along with this
submittal for the corrected buffer labeling.
4. Your environmental consultant needs to address in writing the presence, or lack
of presence, of any wetlands on or within 225 feet of the subject property, per
FWCC Chapter 19.145.
Please see page 5 section 2.2 titled Wetlands of the Critical Areas Report
provided by Cedarock updated on August 11, 2016. No wetlands were
identified on or in the near vicinity of the site.
5. The April 28,, 2015, Cedarock report concludes there is a class Np stream on
the subject property. The report needs to identify specifically why the stream does
not meet the definition of a Type F stream, per FWRC 19.145.260 and Washington
Administrative Code (WAC) 222-16-030. The report needs to specifically address
downstream conditions that exist that result in the stream not being classified as
a Type F stream.
Please see page 2 section 2.1 titled Streams of the Critical Areas Report
provided by Cedarock updated on August 11, 2016.
"The watercourse is only briefly acknowledged or mapped by a few jurisdictions
(chiefly DNR and City of Federal Way). Aside from mention in a URS stream
inventory report prepared for the City of Federal in 2001, and a habitat
assessment for an upstream development prepared in 2013, there is no
evidence the watercourse has ever received much interest or been studied in
detail. A memo from Jim Harris (City of Federal Way Senior Planner) to Isaac
Conlen (City of Federal Way Planning Manager) on February 3, 2015 summarizes
information available in the City archives with respect to the stream rating.
Multiple evaluations conducted by City of Federal Way, King County, and private
consulting firms, along with the City of Federal Way Hearing Examiner, have all
concluded that the stream should be classified as a minor stream under the
previous Federal Way municipal code. A minor stream is a water course or
route, formed by nature, including those which have been modified by humans,
along which surface waters naturally and normally flow and which do not
contain or support resident or migratory fish. Under the current code this would
be a Type N stream. While DNR calls the watercourse a Type F, the DNR work
Mr. Jim Harris
August 18, 2016
Page 3
(except in areas where forest practices are ongoing) is normally done remotely
and based on large scale slope gradient and basin size estimates.
Based on the study conducted for this project, I agree with other studies
conducted to date that the stream would most appropriately be classified as a
Type Np under FWRC 19.05.190.Stream(1). The stream does not meet either of
the two criteria in the City code for classification as fish -bearing (FWRC
19.05.190.Stream(2)):
(a) Streams where naturally reoccurring use by fish has been documented by a
government agency; or
(b) Streams that are fish passable, as determined by a qualified professional
based on review of stream flow, gradient and natural barriers, and criteria for fish
passability established by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife."
B. The BLA map needs to be revised to accurately depict the location of the stream;
reference the stream delineation report and date, accurately depict the correct
stream buffer width; and depict the five -foot building setback requirement of
FWRC 19.145.160
The BLA map has been revised to accurately depict the location of the stream.
A note has been added to the BLA referencing the stream delineation report
and date. Buffers and setbacks are shown.
C. The BLA map currently shows a proposed private access (driveway) within the
wetland buffer and five-foot setback This needs to be revised to first correctly
delineate and show the critical area strearnlivetland, and correct corresponding
buffer width; and second, the driveway needs to be outside of any critical areas,
buffers, and five-foot setback In general, intrusions such as driveways, buildings,
utilities, and other improvements are not outright permitted in stream and/ or
wetland buffers
The BLA has been revised so that all lots and future driveways are outside of
the stream buffer. Please see revised BLA document
D. We strongly encourage you to design the proposal so all critical area intrusions
such as driveways, buildings, utilities, and other improvements being located in
buffers are avoided. In general, any critical area intrusions or buffer intrusions
require additional review process, additional review fees, additional review time,
and may not ultimately be approved. In summary, stream buffer intrusions are
subject to a Process 111 application review, must meet the decisional critical of
FWRC 19.145.330, and must meet the mitigation sequencing requirements of
FWRC 19.145.130.
The BLA map has been revised to avoid any intrusions into the stream buffer,

report must specifically address the regulation pertaining to development within 50 feet of
a GHA as specified in the FWRC 19.145.220 below.•
"19.145.220(3) The director may permit development activities on or within 50 feet

MEMORANDUM RESUBMITTED
Date: April 28, 2015 MAR 14 2016
To: Patrick Danner — ESM Consulting Engineers, LLC CM OF FEDE;a,
CDS
From: Carl HadleySubject: Stream Classification��
Veeder Property - 105 SW 292nd St, Federal Way, WA, 98023
p Y
An evaluation of a watercourse on the above referenced property was made to determine
appropriate water type classification under the current and proposed City of Federal Way
Zoning And Development Code (Chapter .05). Generally speaking, the current code defines
streams as follows:
Stream: "Stream" means a course or route, formed by nature, including those which have been
modified by humans, and generally consisting of a channel with a bed, banks or sides
throughout substantially all its length, along which surface waters naturally and normally flow.
Major St am: "Major stream" means any stream, and the tributaries to any stream, which
conta' s or supports, or under normal circumstances contains or supports, resident or
J mi atory fish.
f
The proposed code uses current Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR)
stream typing methodology as defined under WAC 222-16-030.
METHODS
Local, state and federal databases and maps were searched for any information on the subject
watercourse. The watercourse is only briefly acknowledged or mapped by a few jurisdictions
(chiefly DNR and City of Federal Way). Aside from being mentioned in a URS stream inventory
report prepared for the City of Federal in 2001 (which I could not find a copy of in time to
review for this study) I found no evidence the watercourse has ever been studied in detail, nor
have fish ever been observed in the watercourse. While DNR calls the watercourse a Type.F,
the DNR work (except in areas where forest practices are ongoing) is normally done remotely
and based on regional slope gradient and basin size. It appears that well more than half of the
watercourse has been culverted indicating that it has a long history of being treated more like a
stormwater conveyance than a natural watercourse. If fish had ever been observed, piping of
the watercourse would not likely have been allowed.

Veeder Watercourse Classification
April 28, 2015
The project site was visited on April 17, 2015 by Carl Hadley, a professional fisheries biologist
with Cedarock Consultants, Inc. Mr. Hadley has over 25 years of experience evaluating effects
of land use changes on aquatic habitat in Western Washington. The watercourse on the subject
property was walked in its entirety (about 80 feet). The channel upstream (southwest) of the
property (approximately 80 feet) was observed from a vantage point on the subject property.
From the northern property line, the watercourse flows north down the slope to Puget Sound.
For much of the route downslope the watercourse appears to be contained within a relatively
steep culvert. Private property issues prevented seeing the entire route. The discharge point at
the beach was examined to see if fish had access to the stream from Puget Sound.
The watercourse on -site is contained within a natural topographic low that meanders across
the northwest corner of the property. The channel has a well-defined bed and banks with a
width at the ordinary high water (OHW) mark ranging between 2-feet and 5-feet wide (Figure
1). Channel depth at OHW was 6" to 12" with a bankfull depth of over 12". Substrate ranged
from small gravel to silt. Habitat was dominated by shallow (0.5) riffle with one small pool
about 8" in depth. Channel gradient was approximately 3 percent. Instream flow was
estimated to be approximately 0.06 cfs (30 gpm). A water temperature of 12 °C was measured
just after noon on a relatively warm day with no recent rainfall. This low temperature is
indicative of a groundwater source.
Figure 1. Subject watercourse on the Veeder property (April 2015).
The one pool was quietly observed for approximately 10 minutes with no observations of fish.
The pool provides the only area meeting classic salmonid habitat characteristics and is the most
likely place where fish would be present if they were in the area.
Fish access from Puget Sound into the watercourse is not currently possible. The watercourse
discharges onto the beach via a concrete culvert embedded in a seawall (Figure 2). The culvert
is buried deeply under an adjacent house, concrete patio, and driveway. Several other culverts
are also present along the route up the steep (300-foot, 15 to 20 percent) slope to SW 292nd
Street.

Veeder Watercourse Classification
April 28, 2015
CONCLUSIONS
The subject watercourse minimally meets the definition of a "Stream" under the current
Federal Way Code. The channel appears to have been naturally formed and contains a natural
source of flow. The watercourse is located within a topographic low that extends a long
distance up- and downslope. However, the short (80-foot) section of channel on the subject
property appears to be the only relatively undisturbed section of channel in the 750 feet of
channel that were observed (Figure 3). The rest of the channel appears to have a long history
of being channelized and/or piped. One could argue that the channel no longer contains "a
channel with a bed, banks or sides throughout substantially all its length". In this case the
"Stream" definition may not apply.
It is my opinion that this channel is very unlikely to contain fish, and therefore does not meet
the definition of a "Major stream" under the code. This short and steep channel does not
contain habitat that would provide year-round, or long-term conditions suitable for a resident
fish population to complete a life -cycle (spawn and rear). While the channel on the subject
property minimally provides some suitable habitat, it is an isolated section among much longer
reaches without any habitat suitability. Therefore, with no access to permanent fish -bearing
waters in Puget Sound, it would be very difficult for a fish population to persist in this area.
Under existing conditions there is no potential for anadromous salmon to reach the subject
property.
It is unknown whether or not instream flow is continuous in this channel. If the stream ever
goes dry, there would be no chance of fish being present in the subject reach.
In the absence of site -specific knowledge regarding stream flow continuity, it is my opinion that
the stream in its current and likely permanent condition would most appropriately be typed as
a Np under the proposed City of Federal Way Critical Areas Code.

RE: File No. 16-100330-00-SU; NOTICE OF INCOMPLETE APPLICATION
Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment, 105 SW 292nd Street, Federal Way
Dear Mr. Veeder:
The Department of Community Development has conducted a cursory review of information you
submitted to the City on January 22, 2016, in order to determine if the application is complete for the
proposed Veeder Boundary Line Adjustment. The project is being reviewed under the provisions of
Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) 18.10, "Boundary Line Adjustment."
INCOMPLETE APPLICATION
During the course of the city's review, the following items were found to be missing or incomplete. In order
for your application to be considered complete and ready for processing, the items below must be provided.
■ A wetland and stream analysis must be submitted with the Boundary Line Adjustment (BLA)
application. The submitted BLA shows a wetland buffer line, but no supporting documentation
has been submitted to the City regarding the wetland/stream delineation and classification.
+ A geologically hazardous area (GHA) analysis must be submitted with the Boundary Line
Adjustment application. The submitted BLA shows a 25-foot steep slope buffer, but no
supporting documentation has been submitted to the City regarding the steep slope/GHA
delineation and analysis.
City staff has previously provided information regarding submittal and review process for both
stream/wetland and geologically hazardous area studies, in our April 20, 2015 preapplication conference
letter, and in a follow up email dated April 27, 2015, from Leila Willoughby -Oakes, Associate Planner.
Wetland/Stream analysis reports and geotechnical reports submitted to the City as part of a land use
application may receive a third -party peer review at the discretion of the Community Development
Department, and at the applicant's expense. If required, the city establishes a contract and scope of work
with the city's on -call environmental consultant. For this proposal, a peer review will most likely be
required for both wetland/stream delineation, classification and analysis, and for geologically hazardous
area analysis. We are unable to determine the potential cost of peer review until the appropriate reports
are submitted and a scope of work is prepared by City review consultants.
Alternative to peer review, you may be able to use the Optional Direct Services Program available for
this proposal, providing an opportunity to eliminate peer review. This program allows you to use one of

Mr. Veeder
February 22, 2016
Page 2
the City environmental consultants for critical area study preparation. A handout on the Optional Direct
Services Program is enclosed. Please contact me if you want to pursue this program.
I would be glad to further discuss the critical area review process with you if you have questions.
Please note that the City Council adopted new critical area regulations in 2015 and all environmental
reports must comply with the current regulations which can be found at
http://www.codepublishing.com/WA/FederalWay/ (Title 19 Division 5, FWRC 19.145)
PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL COMMENTS
Since the application is incomplete and the critical areas have not been evaluated, a technical review of
the proposal has not been conducted.
A complete technical review of the proposed BLA will occur after the critical area studies are submitted
to the City, and reviewed as required by City staff and consultants.
Any resubmittals for this application must be accompanied with a green resubmittal form. After receipt of
the requested information noted in the incomplete application section of this letter, the department will
notify you within 14 days whether your application is considered complete or what, if any, information is
still needed. The review clock for processing your formal application will not begin until all items are
submitted.
Please contact me at iim.harris@ciiyoffederal�vay.com if you have any questions. I look forward to
working with you on this project.
