Enclosed are the maps of the boundaries of the cities of Tukwila and Renton.
The boundaries in relation to the subject project are fairly clear on the above
permit, if you would like to check you file copy.
The current discussion involves a repair because the train trestle crossing the
Black River on which the Sprint line was located burned. I do not believe the
repair is exempted via WAC 173 -14 -040 because they are proposing to relocate the
line to another crossing, either via an existing METRO pipeline crossing (see
Alternative 2) or buried in a straight line following its current direction (see
Alternative 1).
Utilities are a permitted use in the low- and high- impact environments of the
Green River under Tukwila's Shoreline Program. Tukwila does not however iden-
tify the Black River in its Shoreline Program and therefore we do not have
regulations for the subject area. I do not know why this is the case. 1 have
told the applicant he needs to contact the City of Renton for the south half of
their project. U.S. Spring apparently does not have a shoreline permit with
Renton.
Since Tukwila's program does not cover the Black River, my thought is that we do
not have regulatory authority over the subject revision. However, because it is
part of a project /permit which is issued, I would like to issue one.
I called Jeanette McKague of Renton Building and Zoning. She informed me that
the north shore is designated "natural" and the south shore is "urban" of the
Black River. The north shore in this area is however in Tukwila.
Please call me with your thoughts and questions. I have not heard from any
tribes at this time.
Yours very truly,

U.S. SPRINT COMM. CO.-
SHORELINE PERMIT #590-14-
7184
PER OUR CONVERSATION ON JUNE 20, 1988, I'M ENCLOSING 3 COPIES OF
THE PROPOSED FIBER CABLE REROUTE THAT CROSSES THE BLACK RIVER ON
UNION PACIFICS RR RIGHT OF WAY. ALSO ENCLOSED IS A COPY OF AN
APPROVED DEPT. OF FISHERIES PERMIT.
AS I MENTIONED, THE U.S. SPRINT FIBER CABLE WAS ATTACHED TO THE
UNION PACIFICS RAILROAD BRIDGE WHICH CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE FIBER
CABLE WAS DESTROYED AND HAS BEEN REPLACED ON THE SAME BRIDGE WITH
A TEMPORARY ATTACHMENT.
THE ATTACHED DRAWINGS CONSIST OF TWO PROPOSALS, ONE IS GOING
DIRECTLY THROUGH THE RIVER IN A DIRECT LINE AND TWO IS CROSSING
UNDER THE UNION PACIFIC RR TRACKS AND CROSSING THE RIVER ON THE
METRO SLUDGE PIPE CONCRETE BRIDGE. THE NUMBER ONE PROPOSAL IS THE
MOST DESIRABLE PROVIDING IT'S NOT COST PROHlBTTIVE, BOTH
PROPOSALS ARE TO BE SENT OUT TO BID THIS WEEK, AND RETURNED
WITHIN TEN DAYS, AT THAT TIME U.S. SPRINT WILL MAKE A DECISION
WHICH PROPOSAL WILL HE USED.
WE WOULD LIKE TO BE COVERED BOTH WAYS IF POSSIBLE DUE TO THE TIME
FRAME FOR CONSTRUCTION, PER DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES PERMIT.
I DISCUSSED THIS MATTER WITH THE STATE OF WASHINGTON DEPT. OF
ECOLOGY, SHORESINES MANAGEMENT SECTION, JOE SONNERONNE AT TEL #
(206-459-6771). SHE FELT THAT THIS PERMIT MODIFICATION COULD BE
DONE BY A LETTER AND DRAWINGS AS I MENTIONED TO YOU.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER.

Dear Ms. Bradshaw:
Metro staff has reviewed the above referenced propsoal and wish
to offer comments regarding probable adverse impacts to its
wastewater facilities and water quality program.
We note that the proposed development of a fiber optic cable
system may conflict with Metro's wastewater facilities within the
project area. (Please contact Jim Hawthorn at 684 -1303 on this
subject) .
Water Quality
We recommend that precautions and appropriate mitigation measures
should be taken in order to minimize adverse environment impacts
on the Green River and its associated wetlands. Additionally,
' appropriate setbacks from these water bodies may be required. We
would like to review specific project locations and site details
in order to make detail evaluation of the proposed action.
For more information or questions on water quality, please
contact Brandt Gutermuth at 684 -1219.
Thank you for the opportunity to review -_and comment.

Construction activities will be completed within one month after
issuance of permits. Completion of all construction activities is
planned for Fall 1987.
7. Do you have any plans for future additions, expansion, or further
activity related to or connected with this proposal? If yes,
explain.
This project is part of a 23,000 -mile nationwide telecommunication
network being constructed by U.S. Sprint. Construction of the net-
work is scheduled for completion within 2 to 3 years.
8. List any environmental information you know about that has been pre-
pared, or will be prepared, directly related to this proposal.
Field surveys, reviews of existing literature, and contacts with
government agencies have been conducted to obtain environmental
information for the proposed project.
Cultural resources specialists performed an assessment of the
Washington State alignment and repeater stations for the U.S. Sprint
Fiber Optic Cable project. The work was undertaken in consultation
with staff of the State Office of Archeology and Historic Preserva-
tion (OAHP) as well as representatives of several Indian Tribes. In
additon to consultations, the assessment included a search of records
on known cultural resources sites, a review of listings in the
National Register of Historic Places, and a vehicular reconnaissance
and on -foot survey of the project alignment. The work resulted in a
report entitled, "Cultural Resources Survey for the U.S. Sprint Fiber
Optic Cable Project, Eugene, Oregon to Seattle, Washington" (Heritage
Research Associates, April 1987). This report, which includes an
appendix containing confidential site forms and maps, has been filed
with OAHP. Addendum reports on surveys of project reroutes also have
been prepared and filed at OAHP.
9. Do you know whether applications are pending for governmental appro-
vals of other proposals directly affecting the property covered by
your proposal? If yes, ezplain.
No applications pending at this time.
10. List any government approvals or permits that will be needed for your
proposal, if known.
No applications pending at this time.
11. Give brief, complete description of your proposal, including the pro-
posed uses and the size of the project and site. There are several
questions later in this checklist that ask you to describe certain
aspects of your proposal. You do not need to repeat those answers on
this page. Section B requires a complete description of the objec-
tives and alternatives of your proposal and should not be summarized
here.
The purpose of this project is to make available a high quality long
distance voice and data communication transmission system to the
Pacific Northwest. Fiber optics utilizes laser technology and digi-
tal transmission.
Project construction will utilize plowing, trenching, boring, and
bridge attachment. A crawler will be used for direct burial of a 3/4-
inch diameter fiber optic cable or a 3/4 inch fiber optic cable
encased within a 1 -3/4 inch diameter plowable conduit. A backhoe or
trencher will excavate a 1 -foot wide trench for placement of the
cable or encasement of the cable in either a 2 -inch diameter PVC con-
duit or a 2 -inch diameter PVC conduit encased in 3 -1/2 Bag pea gravel
mix or both. The boring process for fiber optic cable placement
involves boring machine installation of a 4 -inch diameter Black iron
pipe to contain a PVC conduit which encases the 3/4 inch fiber optic
cable. The shoreline management area crossings involved within the
subject permits will be made by encasing the 3/4 inch fiber optic
cable inside a 4 -inch diameter galvanized iron pipe and attaching to
existing bridges.
Post - construction contours will match in -situ contours. When
required by the governing body, extracted materials will be disposed
of in an area designated by the governing body. Replacement fill,
when required by the governing body, will be of a type and from a
source designated and /or approved by the governing body.
See Table 1.
See Table 2.
` .
12. Location of the proposal. Give sufficient information for a person
to understand the precise location of your proposed project,
including a street address, if any, and section, township, and range,
if known. If a proposal would occur over a range of area, provide

B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS
1. Earth
a. General description of the site (circle one):
Flat, rolling, hilly, steep slopes, mountain-
ous, other.
See Table 3.
b. What is the steepest slope on the site
(approximate percent slope)?
See Table 3.
c. What general types of soils are found on the
site (for example, clay, sand, gravel, peat,
muck)? If you know the classification of
agricultural soils, specify them and note
any prime farmland.
Alluvial soil overlayed by crushed rock and
dirt (roadbed and railroad bed material).
d. Are there surface indications or history of
unstable soils in the immediate vicinity? If
so, describe.
None of these sites show any history of soil
instability.
e. Describe the purpose, type, and approximate
quantities of any filling or grading proposed.
Indicate source of fill.
Small quantities of non - native backfill
material may be required to meet applicable
construction codes at the approaches to
bridges. This non - native fill will be com-
pacted and graded to approximate the pre-
existing grade. When required by the govern-
ing body, extracted materials will be
disposed of in an area designated by the
governing body. Replacement fill, when
required by the governing body, will be of a
type and from a source designated and /or
approved by the governing body.

Agency Use Only
f. Could erosion occur as a result of clearing,
construction, or use? If so, generally
describe.
2. Air
There is a slight chance of construction -
related erosion occurring at the Duwamish
River crossing (MP 11.8). The cable route
lies along a railroad bed with an adjacent
shoulder slope of approximately 45 percent.
The grade at the other site is relatively
flat and therefore not susceptible to erosion.
g. About what percent of the site will be covered
with impervious surfaces after project con-
struction (for example, asphalt or buildings)?
Not applicable.
h. Proposed measures to reduce or control erosion,
or other impacts to the earth, if any:
Construction techniques will be used that
minimize the amount of disturbance of the
adjacent roadbeds and railroad beds and thus
reduce the chance of construction related
erosion.
a. What types of emissions to the air would result
from the proposal (i.e., dust, automobile
odors, industrial wood smoke) during construc-
tion and when the project is completed? If
any, generally describe and give approximate
quantities if known.
Project construction will result in short -
term, temporary emissions from gas- and
diesel- powered construction equipment.
Short -term, temporary increases in airborne
dust will also occur during project construc-
tion. The project will not create emissions
or odor once construction has been completed.
b. Are there any off -site sources of emissions
or odor that may affect your proposal? If so,
generally describe.
Existing off -site sources include automobile
and truck traffic on adjacent roadways, train
traffic on nearby railroad rights -of -way, and
light industries on adjacent properties.
These sources will not affect the proposed
project during construction or operation.
c. Proposed measures to reduce or control emis-
sions or other impacts to air, if any:
No significant impacts are anticipated, there-
fore no mitigation is required.
3. Water
a. Surface:
1) Is there any surface water body on or in
the immediate vicinity of the site (including
year -round and seasonal streams, saltwater,
lakes, ponds, wetlands)? If yes, describe

in, or adjacent to (within 200 feet) the
described waters? If yes, please describe
and attach available plans.
Both of the sites are within 200 feet of the
surface water bodies described in Table 4,
and shown on the attached site plans.
3) Estimate the amount of fill and dredge
material that would be placed in or removed
from surface water or wetlands and indicate
the area of the site that would be affected.
Indicate the source of fill material.
None.
4) Will the proposal require surface water
withdrawals or diversions? Give general
description, purpose, and approzimate quan-
tities, if known.
This proposal will not require any with-
drawal or diversion of surface water.
Evaluation for
Agency Use Only
5) Does the proposal lie within a 100 -year
floodplain? If so, note location on the site
plan.
Both of the proposed sites lie within the
100 -year floodplain. However, construction
will take place only on elevated roadbeds,
railroad beds, and bridges. These locations
appear to be above the 100 -year floodplain.
6) Does the proposal involve any discharges
of waste materials to surface waters? If so,
describe the type of waste and anticipated
volume of discharge.
The proposal does not involve any discharge of
waste materials to surface waters.
b. Ground:
1) Will ground water be withdrawn, or will
water be discharged to ground water? Give
general description, purpose, and approximate
quantities, if known.
There will be no withdrawal of, or discharge
to, ground water.
2) Describe waste materials that will be
discharged into the ground from septic tanks
or other sources, if any (for example:
Domestic sewage; industrial; agricultural;
etc.) Describe the general size of the
system, the number of such systems, the
number of houses to be served (if applic-
able), or the number of animals or humans the
system(s) are expected to serve.

1) Describe the source of runoff (including
storm water) and method of collection and
disposal, if any (include quantities, if
known). Where will this water flow? Will
this water flow into other waters? If so,
describe.
Evaluation for
Agency Use Only
Unknown quantities of rainfall and runoff
from adjacent roadbeds. No permanent altera-
tion of existing collection or disposal
methods will occur; no additional collection
or disposal facilities will be required.
2) Could waste materials enter ground or
surface waters? If so, generally describe.
No waste materials will enter surface or
ground waters.
d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface,
ground, and runoff water impacts, if any:
No significant impacts are anticipated,
therefore no mitigation is required.
4. Plants
a. Check or circle types of vegetation found on
the site:
_ decidious tree: alder, maple, aspen,
other
evergreen tree: fir, cedar, pine, other
shrubs
grass
pasture
crop or grain
wet soil plants: cattail, buttercup,
skunk cabbage, others
water plants: water lily, eelgrass, mil -
foil, other
other types of vegetation
See Table 5.
b. What kind and amount of vegetation will be
removed or altered?
At both sites there will be small amounts of
vegetation removed or altered during construc-
tion. This vegetation will generally be
grasses and small shrubs from the road or rail-
road rights -of -way. It is anticipated that
the disturbed areas will revegetate within a
short period of time and that no permanent
changes in vegetation type and /or quantity
will occur.
Evaluation for
Agency Use Only
c. List threatened or endangered species known
to be on or near the site.
There are no known threatened or endangered
plant species in the vicinity of the shore-
line management area crossings.
d. Proposed landscaping, use of native plants,
or other measures to preserve or enhance
vegetation on the site, if any.
It is anticipated that natural revegetation
of the sites will occur within a short period
of time, therefore no mitigation will be
required.
5. Animals
a. Circle any birds and animals which have been
observed on or near the site or are known to
be on or near the site:
birds: hawk, heron, eagle, songbirds, other
mammals: deer, bear, elk, beaver, other
fish: bass, salmon, trout, herring, shellfish,
other
See Table 6.
b. List any threatened or endangered species
known to be on or near the site.
There are no known threatened or endangered
animal species in the vicinity of the shore-
line management area crossings,
c. Is the site part of a migration route? If
so, explain.
Both of the proposed sites are within the
migration route of anadromous salmonids. It
is likely that migratory waterfowl use the
Green and Duwamish Rivers as migration corri-
dors.
Evaluation for
Agency Use Only
d. Proposed measures to preserve or enhance
wildlife, if any:
No significant impacts are anticipated,
therefore no mitigation is required.
6. Energy and Natural Resources
a. What kinds of energy (electric, natural gas,
oil, wood stove, solar) will be used to meet

2) Proposed measures to reduce or control
environmental health hazards, if any:
b. Noise
Not applicable.
1) What types of noise exist in the area
which may affect your project (for example:
traffic, equipment, operation, other)?
Existing off-site sources include automobile
and truck traffic on adjacent roadways, train
traffic on nearby railroad rights -of -way, and
light industries on adjacent properties.
These sources will not affect the proposed
project during construction or operation.
2) What types and levels of noise would be
created by or associated with the project on
a short -term or a long -term basis (for example:
traffic, construction, operation, other)?
Indicate what hours noise would come from the
site.
Construction equipment will cause short -term,
temporary increases in noise levels during
cable laying efforts. Project - related
increases in noise levels are not expected to
be significant relative to existing
background noise levels. Noise will be
generated during daylight working hours
(typically 0700 to 1800 hours). Once
construction is completed, the proposed pro-
ject will not result in increased noise
levels.
3) Proposed measures to reduce or control
noise impacts, if any:
No significant impacts are anticipated,
therefore no mitigation is required.

a. Are there any places or objects listed on, or
proposed for, national, state, or local
preservation registers known to be on or next
to the site? If so, generally describe.
Results of the assessment in King County
indicate that most of the cable route follows
a railroad right - of-way where previous dis-
turbance has resulted in a very low probabi-
lity of intact cultural deposits. No
significant sites were considered close
enough to the cable route for any mitigation
measures including archeological monitoring
or cable installation.
b. Generally describe any landmarks or evidence
of historic, archaeological, scientific, or

service, telephone, sanitary sewer, septic
system, other.
In general, utility services such as power,
water, and telephone are available in the
immediate vicinity of both shoreline manage-
ment area crossings. Service hook -ups have
not been extended directly to shoreline
management area crossing locations, since
they occur along rights-of-way rather than
specific parcels of land proposed for devel-
opment.
b. Describe the utilities that are proposed for
the project, the utility providing the service,
and the general construction activities on the
site or in the immediate vicinity which might
be needed.
None.

E. SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR ALL PROJECT AND NON
PROJECT PROPOSALS
The objectives and the alternative means of
reaching the objectives for a proposal will
be helpful in reviewing the aforegoing items
of the Environmental Checklist. This infor-
mation provides a general overall perspective
of the proposed action in the context of the
environmental information provided and the
submitted plans, documents, supportive infor-
mation, studies, etc.
1) What are the objective(s) of the proposal?
The purpose of the U.S. Sprint Fiber Optic
Cable Project is to make available a high -
quality long distance voice and data com-
munication transmission system to the Pacific
Northwest. Fiber optics utilizes laser tech-
nology and digital transmission.
2) What are the alternative means of accom-
plishing these objectives?
Alternatives to the proposed project include
No Action, routing the cable along alternate
existing road /utility rights -of -way, and
routing the cable outside of existing road/
utility rights -of -way.
3) Please compare the alternative means and
indicate the preferred course of action:
If no action were taken, U.S. Sprint would
not install its fiber optic cable and
ancillary facilities in this area of the
Pacific Northwest. While the no- action
alternative would preclude environmental
impacts associated with project construction,
it would prevent U.S. Sprint from completing
its telecommunications network.
Use of an alternative existing right-of-way
such as Interstate 5 is not feasible because
the Federal Highway Administration prohibits
longitudinal encroachment in the rights -of -way
or median strips of federal highways. Use of
Evaluation for
Agency Use Only
other existing rights -of -way could be con-
sidered by U.S. Sprint, but could add signi-
ficantly to environmental impacts and /or
costs of project completion.
Routing alternatives outside of existing road/
utility rights-of-way were considered imprac-
tical. The environmental impacts of such
routing would be much greater than those
resulting from the use of previously disturbed
corridors. Additionally, construction in
undisturbed areas would necessitate building
or upgrading access. As with the alternative
discussed above, an action of this type would
add significantly to the environmental impacts
and costs of project completion.
It was determined that the only practical
alternative was to route the proposed cable
along existing transportation and utility
corridors to minimize environmental effects of
project construction. U.S. Sprint's preferred
route, which follows existing road, railroad,
and utility rights -of - way, accomplishes this
objective.
4) Does the proposal conflict with policies
of the Tukwila Comprehensive Land Use Policy
Plan? If so, what policies of the Plan?
The proposed project does not conflict with
policies of the City of Tukwila Comprehensive
Land Use Policy Plan.
Proposed measures to avoid or reduce the
conflict(s) are:
No significant impacts are anticipated, there-
fore, no mitigation is required.

Please reference your project No. 405 -102 submitting construction draw-
ings for my approval covering installation of a fiber optic cable on Railroad
right of way from Seattle to near Tacoma, Washington.
The revised drawings are approved; however, you may not begin work
on the segment of the project from Spokane Street to Royal Brougham St.
in Seattle until the agreement with Burlington Northern (C.D. 56039) has
been fully executed. Since you have requested to place your cable on the
timber pile bridge No. 174.40, I would like to advise this bridge could be
replaced at any time or it could be destroyed by fire, Therefore, Union
Pacific accepts no responsibility for this bridge attachment; extra cable
should be provided at each end of the bridge; and all cost to relocate the
cable in the event this bridge is replaced will be at US Sprint expense. The
attachment plans for bridge No. 165.95 are approved; however, in the event
this bridge is raised the attachments will have to be the type that will not
impede Railroad personnel from performing this operation. In addition, the
fiber optic cable will have to be located 60 inches below or around the end of
all culverts unless otherwise approved by the Railroad, and go behind (field
side) of all Railroad signal facilities.
In order to plot the final location of the fiber optic cable on Railroad
maps, the location of the cable will have to be referenced to Railroad facilities
such as bridges, culverts, and switches, using Railroad Engineering station-
ing. This data will have to be shown on the "as built" drawings to be fur-
nished to the Railroad upon completion of the project.
T PAI /lklm , Ito -31k
Upon completion of the execution of the Construction Agreement and
proper notification received by our Regional Office, you may begin on the
remaining portion of work for this project south of Spokane Street. Attached
for your use are two copies of the approved construction drawings. '
Youre truly,.

U.S. Sprint Communications Company is constructing a fiber optic cable
system between Seattle, Washington and Eugene, Oregon. The purpose of
this project is to make available a high quality long distance voice and
data communication transmission system to the Pacific Northwest. Fiber
optics utilizes laser technology and digital transmission.
Project construction will utilize plowing, trenching, boring, and bridge
attachment. A crawler will be used for direct burial of a 3/4 inch
diameter fiber optic cable or a 3/4 inch diameter fiber optic cable
encased within a 1 -3/4 inch diameter plowable conduit. A backhoe or
trencher will excavate a one foot wide trench for placement of the cable
or encasement of the cable in either a 2 inch diameter P.V.C. conduit or
a 2 inch diameter P.V.C. conduit encased in a 3 -1/2 Bag pea gravel mix
or both. The boring process for fiber optic cable placement involves
boring machine installation of a 4 inch diameter Black Iron Pipe to
contain a P.V.C. conduit which encases the 3/4 inch fiber optic cable.
The water crossings involved within the subject permits will be made by
encasing the 3/4 inch fiber optic cable inside a 4 inch diameter
galvanized iron pipe and attaching it to existing bridges.
Post - construction contours will match in situ contours. When required
by the governing body, extracted materials will be disposed of in an
area designated by the governing body. Replacement fill, when required
by the governing body, will be of a type and from a source designated
and /or approved by the governing body.
