ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
Purpose of Checklist:
facEivlA
c►n °F Tub
Dv..0 1 SBA
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), chapter 43.21C RCW, requires all
governmental agencies to consider the environmental impacts of a proposal
before making decisions. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be
prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the
quality of the environment. The purpose of this checklist is to provide
information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal
(and to reduce or avoid impacts from the proposal, if it can be done) and
to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
Instruction for Applicants:
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information
about your proposal. The City uses this checklist to determine whether the
environmental impacts of your proposal are significant, requiring prepara-
tion of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise infor-
mation known, or give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your
knowledge. In most cases, you should be able to answer the questions from
your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts.
If you really do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to .
your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply ". Complete answers
to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shore-
line, and landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If
you have problems, the City staff can assist you.
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 City may ask you to explain your answers or
provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there
may be significant adverse impact.
' Use of checklist for nonproject proposals:
Complete this checklist for nonproject proposals, even though questions may
be answered "does not apply." In addition, complete the supplemental
sheet for nonproject actions (part D).
For nonproject actions, the references in the checklist to the words
"project," "applicant," and "property or site" should read as "proposal,"
"proposer," and "affected geographic area," respectively.

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
information provides a general overall perspective of the
proposed action in the context of the environmental infor-
mation provided and the submitted plans, documents, suppor-
tive information, studies, etc.
1. What are the objective(s) of the proposal? The proiect
proposes the construction of an already planned (1965)
warehouse building. Additional upgrading of the existing
building will also occur.
2. What are the alternative means of accomplishing these
objectives? Move business to another location.
3. Please compare the alternative means and indicate the
preferred course of action: Owner has located in
Tukwila to be situated in an area which accomodates
his business requirements. Building the already - planned
addition best suits the Owner's course.
