The geotechnical work will take soil borings along the proposed railroad track alignment, which includes Type 1 and Type 3 wetlands and wetland buffers. SEPA This project is exempt from the State Environmental Policy Act under WAC 197 -11 -800 (18), Information collection and research. Background The City has been working with Union Pacific Railroad to realign the railroad tracks in conjunction with the Strander Blvd. extension east into the City of Renton. As part of the railroad realignment, nine soil borings are needed for geotechnical investigation work. One boring will take place in a Type 1 wetland, one boring will be in a Type 1 buffer and five borings will take place in the buffers of Type 3 wetlands. See Maps, Exhibit A. Decision Criteria • City of Tukwila Department of Community Development Steve Lancaster, Director MEMORANDUM TMC 18.45.090 A. states that any use or development in a wetland is subject to review and approval by the Director. Typically, no alterations are permitted to Type 1 wetlands and isolated Type 3 wetlands may be altered or relocated only with the permission of the Steven M. Mullet, Mayor CL Pagc 1 of 4 05/03/2007 1:08:00 PM ()\1 .07- 025 \1.07 -025 SP Director SR dor 6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Suite #100 • Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206 - 431 -3670 • Fax: 206 - 431 -3665 • • L07 -025, Special Permission Director Union Pacific Railroad Relocation/Strander Blvd. Extension May 3, 2007 Director. The work that is occurring under this land use application is setting the stage for the actual realignment of the railroad tracks and the extension of Strander Blvd. east into the City of Renton, which are essential streets, roads and rights of way, a permitted use subject to administrative review. Most of the work is occurring in the buffer of Type 3 wetlands. The eventual railroad realignment and road extension will permanently affect these wetlands and their buffers. TMC 18.45.090 B. states that alterations to wetlands are discouraged and are limited to the minimum necessary for project feasibility. In this case, the soil borings will be taken to assist in the development of geotechnical studies for the railroad realignment and the road extension. A representative sample of the soils is needed to assist in the engineering of the essential right of way. Requests for alterations must meet the criteria that follow below. The criteria are in italics with the response following. a. The alteration will not adversely affect water quality; The information provided by the applicant on the soil borings process is as follows: "Drilling will be completed using a standard, mobile, track- mounted drill rig at the boring locations. Because of the anticipated soft and loose soil deposits and high groundwater table, mud rotary techniques will be used to drill each of the boreholes 60 to 180 feet below ground surface, or to an appropriate depth determined during fieldwork.. Traditional mud -rotary drilling requires use of a drilling mud consisting of bentonite slurry, which is pumped out of a mud tank at the ground surface, down the center of the drill rods, through the drill bit, up the hole between the drill rods and borehole sidewalls, and back into the mud tank. The circulation of drilling mud removes the cuttings generated during the drilling process from the hole and carries them to the mud tank. Boreholes are typically less than 8 inches in diameter. All cuttings and drilling mud will be containerized and/or disposed of in an upland (and non - buffer) location." The disturbed buffers and wetland areas will be reseeded with a native plant seed mix once the geotechnical fieldwork is complete. See Exhibit B for the see mixture. Eventually this area will be permanently altered when the railroad tracks are relocated and the road is extended over the tracks. b. The alteration will not adversely affect fish, wildlife, or their habitat; The soil borings will not affect fish or their habitat; the borings may temporarily disturb wildlife while the equipment is in place; however, this will be a temporary occurrence over the course of one week. CL Page 2 of 4 05/03/2007 1:19:00 PM Q: \L07- 025 \L07 -025 SP Director SR.doc • • L07 -025, Special Permission Director Union Pacific Railroad Relocation/Strander Blvd. Extension May 3, 2007 c. The alteration will not have an adverse effect on drainage and /or storm water detention capabilities; The borings will not affect the drainage and/or storm water detention capabilities of the wetlands and their buffers. d. The alteration will not lead to unstable earth conditions or create an erosion hazard or contribute to scouring actions; The site where the soil borings will take place is flat. Disturbed areas will be replanted after the borings are taken. e. The alteration will not be materially detrimental to any other property; and The borings will not affect properties other than those on which the railroad realignment is taking place. f The alteration will not have adverse effects on any other sensitive areas. There are no other sensitive areas adjacent to the sites where the borings are taking place. Mitigation Plan The Sensitive Areas Ordinance requires that impacts to wetland and their buffers be mitigated by restoration, creation or enhancement. For the soil samples, the site will be reseeded. Permanent impacts to the wetlands will be addressed at a later date prior to the actual realignment of the railroad tracks and the construction of the road extension. CONCLUSIONS 1. Permission is requested to perform geotechnical assessment via nine soil borings in the area where the Union Pacific Railroad tracks east of West Valley Highway will be located. The City has been working with relocating the railroad tracks to facilitate the extension of Strander Blvd., an essential road and right of way, east from the city limits into the City of Renton. 2. One boring will be located just inside a Type 1 wetland; one boring will be in the wetland buffer of a Type 1 wetland and the remainder of the borings will be in the buffer of a Type 3 wetland. Type 1 wetlands and their buffers may only be altered for a use permitted in TMC 18.45. Essential streets, roads and rights -of- way are a permitted use under the City's Sensitive Areas Ordinance.

The project is exempt from SEPA under WAC 197 -11 -800 (18), the exemption for information collection and research. 4. The borings will not adversely affect water quality — the borings will removed and carried to a mud tank. All cuttings and drilling mud will be containerized and/or disposed of in an upland, non - buffer location. 5. The borings will not adversely affect fish and their habitat; wildlife may be temporarily disturbed while the equipment is drilling. The drilling will last approximately one week. 6. The soil borings will not have an adverse effect on the drainage and/or storm water detention capabilities of the wetlands. 7. The site is flat so the borings will not lead to unstable earth conditions or create an erosion hazard or contribute to scouring actions. 8. The borings will not affect properties other than those on which the railroad realignment is taking place. 9. No other sensitive areas are adjacent to the sites where the borings are taking place. 10. All disturbed areas, both the boring sites and areas affected by heavy equipment, will be reseeded with a native plant seed mix. Mitigation, as required by the City's Sensitive Areas Ordinance will be addressed at the time the wetlands are permanently impacted by the road and railroad track realignment construction.

I guess we assume as kids that our parents are infallible. :) Unfortunately, the boring (B -301) will still be in the wetland - but closer to the wetland edge, so less wetland will be impacted to get to it. It will be located at station 415 +00, which is marked in blue numbers on the Proposed Boring Locations Map (sheet 2 of 4) that was attached to our permit application. I asked our geotechs if we could move the boring to just outside of the wetland, but they said it would be too close to the next boring (B -302).

Someone from Shannon & Wilson will be on site to monitor the drilling activities. If we complete the 2 upland borings before May 4th, we will likely relocate 2 or 3 of the northern borings 10 or so feet to the west so they are just outside of the wetland buffer (but still within the proposed railroad realignment). We'd bring a tape to measure the distance from the wetland boundaries to make sure were outside of the wetland buffers. Becki »> "Carol Lumb" <clumb @ci.tukwila.wa.us> 4/23/2007 9:36 AM »> Becki: Will it take 4 days to complete the work that is outside either the wetlands or the buffers? Only 2 of the borings are outside either buffers or wetland area. I am concerned that the contractor will finish up the work outside the sensitive areas and then decide to move on to the other sites before Friday. Will someone from Shannon and Wilson be monitoring the activity out there?

We plan to start work on April 30th, but will stay out of all wetlands and buffers until May 4th (assuming no comments). Thanks again for getting the permit processed so quickly. Thank you for the information on the re- seeding of the disturbed buffer and wetland areas. I will put this information in the file. I talked with my supervisor on the issue of whether the clearing can take place prior to the close of public comments - she confirmed my review of the code that it does not have any flexibility on starting work prior to the end of the comment period, so no boring, clearing or moving of equipment into the buffer or wetland areas may take place until, at the earliest Friday, May 4. This is assuming no comments are received on the project that must be addressed. Let me know if you have any questions. Carol »> "Becki Kniveton" <BSK @shanwil.com> 04/20/2007 10:33 am »> Hi Carol: We will reseed the disturbed buffer and wetland areas with a native plant seed mix (see attached mix) once we are done with our geotechnical fieldwork.

To allow for the new roadway to cross over the railroad tracks, the UPRR railroad tracks will be relocated approximately 300 feet to the east, so they are parallel with the existing BNSF tracks. For this project, Shannon & Wilson is performing a geotechnical assessment of subsurface conditions for the relocation of the UPRR railroad embankment. Our assessment will also include a new bridge at Longacres Way and two utility crossings, which are part of the railroad relocation phase of the Strander Boulevard Extension project. Data from our geotechnical assessment will be used in engineering analyses for the railroad embankment, Longacres Way bridge design, and utility crossings. This letter describes our geotechnical assessment procedures and best management practices as part of our Special Permission Director permit application (attached), and documents why our proposed geotechnical work for the Strander Boulevard Extension project meets the criteria for a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) exemption. Specifically, this letter addresses the criteria of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 197 -11- 800(18) that provide for SEPA exemptions, as adopted by reference in the Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) 21.04.100. 21-1-09369-004 ALASKA COLORADO FLORIDA MISSOURI OREGON WASHINGTON Wetland ID Category Buffer (feet) Wetland C Type 2 80 Wetland D Type 3 50 Wetland M Type 3 50 Wetland P Type 3 50 Wetland Q/R Type 1 100 Wetland S Type 3 50 Wetland T Type 3 50 Ms. Nora Gierloff City of Tukwila April 10, 2007 Page 2 a -30 l G -'a2-) 13 - 3 j3._ 34(' g- 3) _ 5 -3L 21 -1- 09369 -004 -L l . doc /wp /LK D • • BACKGROUND PROJECT AREA WETLANDS PROPOSED WORK SHANNON FiWILSON. INC. The wetlands in the project corridor were delineated and categorized by David Evans & Associates based on parameters outlined in the TMC. The project area wetland categories and buffers are summarized in the table below. The wetland boundaries and associated buffers are also shown on the attached Figure 2. ooi4 e Our proposed work includes drilling nine borings to evaluate soil conditions along the new railroad alignment, at the proposed Longacres Way bridge, and at utility crossings along the alignment (Figure 2). One of the borings will be drilled in a wetland (B -301); up to six of the borings will be in a wetland buffer (B -302, B -305, and B -306 to B -309); and two borings will be in uplands beyond the edge of the wetland buffers (B -303 and B -304). Drilling will be completed using a standard, mobile, track - mounted drill rig at the boring locations. Because of the anticipated soft and loose soil deposits and high groundwater table, mud rotary techniques will be used to drill each of the boreholes 60 to 180 feet below ground surface, or to an appropriate depth determined during fieldwork. Traditional mud - rotary drilling requires use of a drilling mud consisting of bentonite slurry, which is pumped out of a mud tank 21 -1- 09369 -004 Ms. Nora Gierloff City of Tukwila April 10, 2007 Page 3 at the ground surface, down the center of the drill rods, through the drill bit, up the hole between the drill rods and borehole sidewalls, and back into the mud tank. The circulation of drilling mud removes the cuttings generated during the drilling process from the hole and carries them to the mud tank. Boreholes are typically less than 8 inches in diameter. All cuttings and drilling mud will be containerized and /or disposed of in an upland (and non - buffer) location. Limited grading and vegetation clearing will be conducted prior to drilling activities to allow for drill rig access in heavily vegetated areas. Efforts will be made to minimize the amount of disturbance at all boring locations. No long -term impacts are anticipated. In addition, all borings will be located within the proposed embankment corridor, which will be impacted later on by project construction. 21 -1- 09369 -004 -L l . doc /wp /LK D • • SCHEDULE SITE ACCESS SHANNON &WILSON. INC. Due to project schedule restrictions, we would like to conduct our fieldwork activities in late April. Based on conversations with Carol Lumb, a planner at the City of Tukwila Department of Community Development, we understand that it may take a month or more to receive approval from the City. We request that the review time be expedited, if possible, and thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation in this matter. The Special Permission Director permit requires right -of -entry agreements from all property owners. We were unable to obtain a right -of -entry agreement from Sound Transit for your review; however, the borings on the Sound Transit properties will not be in wetlands, and the proposed locations are easily visible from the Longacres Way road right -of -way (Figure 2). The remaining properties are owned by the City of Tukwila and Prium Companies (see enclosed Affidavit of Ownership and Hold Harmless Permission to Enter Property form signed by Prium Companies). If you go out on the Prium Companies property, please contact Greg Diener at Pacific Engineering Design (425) 251 -8811, who has the keys to the gate. 21-1-09369-004 Ms. Nora Gierloff City of Tukwila April 10, 2007 Page 4 The proposed work falls under SEPA Categorical Exemption #18 - Information Collection and Research (WAC 197 -11 -800 [18]), which states that "Basic data collection, research, resource evaluation, requests for proposals, and the conceptual planning of proposals shall be exempt. These may be strictly for information gathering, or as part of a study leading to a proposal that has not yet been approved, adopted, or funded; this exemption does not include any agency action that commits the agency to proceed with such a proposal."
