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

SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (IT IS NOT NECESSARY to use this sheet for project actions) Because these questions are very general, it may be helpful to read them in conjunction with the list of the elements of the environment. When answering these questions, be aware of the extent the proposal, or the types of activities likely to result from the proposal, would affect the item at a greater intensity or at a faster rate than if the proposal were not implemented. Respond briefly and in general tez)ms. 1. How would the proposal be likely to increase discharge to water; emissions to air; production, storage, or release of toxic or hazardous substances; or production of noise? • Rivera Property — No site -specific project at this time. Any future development on site would be subject to land use review under the FWRC. Public Works - Implementation of the listed projects would result in increases in impervious surfaces, which would increase discharges to water. Emissions of some pollutants would be reduced as a result of replacing some motorized vehicle trips with non -motorized trips. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce such increases are: Projects will be evaluated in accordance with all plans, policies, rules, and regulations adopted as a basis for the exercise of substantive authority under SEPA to approve, condition, or deny any proposed action. In addition, Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Title 19, Division VII, Supplemental Zoning Regulations provides specific regulations related to air quality, noise, and water quality. Water quality impacts will be mitigated in compliance with King County Surface Water Design Manual, which has been adopted by the City with minor amendments. Individual zones within the FWRC regulate storage and treatment of hazardous substances. FWRC Section 19.30.060 requires immediate compliance of nonconformance for each of these potential impact areas. 2. How would the proposal be likely to affect plants, animals, fish, or marine life? • Rivera Property — No likely to adversely effect. • Public Works - Minor reductions in habitat would result from grading and construction activities in undeveloped areas. This is outlined in the response to Item 4 below. Proposed measures to protect or conserve plants, animals, fish, or marine life are: Projects will be evaluated in accordance with all plans, policies, rules, and regulations adopted as a basis for the exercise of substantive authority under SEPA to approve, condition, or deny any proposed action. In addition, Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Title 19, Division VII, Supplemental Zoning Regulations provides specific Bulletin #050 — October 17, 2016 Page 22 of 24 k:\Handouts\Environmental Checklist 41k CITY OF Federal Way Department of Community Development 33325 81" Avenue South Federal Way, WA 98003-6325 253-835-2607;Fax 253-835-2609 wmy.cityoffedundway.can, regulations related to air quality, noise, and water quality. Impacts to wildlife habitat will be mitigated in compliance with the Endangered Species Act, 4D Rule, NPDES requirements, and King County Surface Water Design Manual. 3. How would the proposal be likely to deplete energy or natural resources? • Rivera Property — Development of the property would not adversely deplete energy or natural resources. o Energy and resources would be consumed in the construction of projects, including gasoline and diesel fuel for construction vehicles, wood products for forming concrete, sign posts, and landscaping materials, asphalt cement, concrete cement, sand, and gravel for paving, and mineral products for street lights, traffic signal poles, and signs. Proposed measures to protect or conserve energy and natural resources are: Use of renewable and/or recycled products would be required as feasible. 4. How would the proposal be likely to use or affect environmentally sensitive areas or areas designated (or eligible or under study) for governmental protection; such as parks, wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, threatened or endangered species habitat, historic or cultural sites, wetlands, floodplains, or prime farmlands? Rivera Property — Site does not contain mapped critical areas or sensitive habitats. Public Works - Projects will be evaluated in accordance with all plans, policies, rules, and regulations adopted as a basis for the exercise of substantive authority under SEPA to approve, condition, or deny any proposed action. In addition, Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Title 19, Division VH, Supplemental Zoning Regulations provides specific regulations related to wildlife habitat. Impacts to wildlife habitat will be mitigated in compliance with the Endangered Species Act, 4D Rule, NPDES requirements, and King County Surface Water Design Manual. The following table shows where these potential impacts may be realized.

How would the proposal be likely to affect land and shoreline use, including whether it would allow or encourage land or shoreline uses incompatible with existing plans? • Rivera property —Property not within shoreline jurisdiction. • Public Works - Projects shown would be supportive of policies in the adopted Comprehensive Plan and expand upon the adopted Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan. Proposed measures to avoid or reduce shoreline and land use impacts are: None needed. 6. How would the proposal be likely to increase demands on transportation or public services and utilities? • Rivera Property — Future development subject to traffic concurrency review. Public services and utilities are available at the site. Not likely to adversely effect. • No impact beyond that which has been considered in the adoption of the existing Comprehensive Plan would be created. The projects would provide advance notice to utility providers in order to coordinate concurrent improvements and minimize disruption. Proposed measures to reduce or respond to such demand(s) are: None needed. 7. Identify, if possible, whether the proposal may conflict with local, state, or federal laws or requirements for the protection of the environment. • Rivera Property — No conflict. • Public Works - At the time design on an individual project is initiated, any environmentally sensitive areas that may be impacted would be identified and any impacts mitigated as part of the project -specific environmental review process. In addition, Federal Way Revised Code (FWRC) Title 19, Division VII, Supplemental Zoning Regulations provides specific regulations related to environmentally sensitive areas. Impacts to these areas will be mitigated in compliance with the Endangered Species Act, 4D Rule, NPDES requirements, and King County Surface Water Design Manual.
