B. Amendments to Tukwila Municipal Code Chapter 14.30, Surface Water Management
The City's current National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requires the
City to adopt either the 2012 Department of Ecology Surface Water Design Manual or an
equivalent by December 31, 2016. The intent is to make Low Impact Development (LID)
techniques the preferred and common approach to development and redevelopment. Following
analysis, staff proposes adopting the 2016 King County Surface Water Design Manual (KCSWDM)
and 2016 King County Stormwater Pollution Prevention Manual. Amendments are proposed to
Chapter 14.30, Surface Water Management, of the Tukwila Municipal Code to adopt these
manuals as well as add a section on waste receptacle requirements and catch basin labeling.
The proposed amendments must be reviewed by the Department of Commerce and then will
return for Council review and adoption. COMMITTEE DISCUSSION ONLY.
