FINAL STAFF EVALUATION
FOR
Klickitat/Southcenter Parkway Improvement Project
File No: E10-007
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED ACTION
This project will widen Southcenter Parkway and reconfigure turning lanes. Two southbound
lanes will be depressed between the northern WSDOT ramp and Strander Boulevard, and a
bridge will allow Klickitat Drive traffic to cross over the depressed lanes.
II. GENERAL INFORMATION
Project Name: Klickitat Drive/Southcenter Parkway Improvement Project
Applicant:
Location:
City of Tukwila
Public Works Department, Cyndy Knighton
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Tukwila, WA 98188. Phone: (206) 431-2450.
Project is located along Southcenter Parkway, from approximately the
Southcenter Mall access road ("the Nordstrom entrance") to 600 feet south of
Strander Boulevard (near the Outback Restaurant). See attached map.
Zoning/Comp Plan The current zoning and Comprehensive Plan designation for the adjacent
properties in the vicinity of the project is Tukwila Urban Center (TUC).
Notice: Notice of Application was mailed on March 15, 2010.
III. REVIEW PROCESS
The proposed action is subject to State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review. The State
Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), Chapter 43.21 RCW, requires governmental agencies to
consider the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. The proposed
project does not meet the SEPA exemptions listed under WAC 197-11-800.
This project was evaluated and classified as Class II— Categorically Excluded (CE) under the
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) in 2007. 13 individual reports were produced:
Traffic Analysis; Air Quality; Environmental Justice; Acquisitions and Relocations;
Aesthetics and Visual Impacts; Stormwater; Fish and Aquatic Resources; Biological
Assessment; Water Quality; Section 106 - Identification of Areas of Potential Effects;
Geology, Soils, Groundwater and Geologically Sensitive Areas; Hazardous Materials — Phase
I; and Noise.
IV. BACKGROUND/PROPOSAL
The proposal consists of transportation improvements along Southcenter Parkway in the
vicinity of Klickitat Drive, I-5 ramps, and Strander Boulevard, and is designed to relieve
severe traffic congestion, minimize conflicting movements, meet the City's goals for
operational level of service through the year 2030, improve pedestrian access, and be
consistent with the City's future land use plans.
V. REVIEW OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST
The following lists the elements contained within the Environmental Checklist submitted for
the proposed project. The numbers in the staff evaluation correspond to the numbers in the
Environmental Checklist. If staff concurs with the applicant's response, this is so stated. If
the response to a particular item in the checklist is found to be inadequate or clarification is
needed, there is additional staff comment and evaluation.
A. BACKGROUND:
1- Concur with checklist.
2- Applicant is
City of Tukwila, Public Works Department
6300 Southcenter Boulevard, Tukwila WA 98188
Contact person is Cyndy Knighton, Senior Engineer, Phone 206-431-2450
3-5- Concur with checklist.
6- Construction shall begin after obtaining all local, state and federal permits.
7-9- Concur with checklist.
10- Right turn lane added on Strander. A taper lane is added from Klickitat to Nordstrom on
Southcenter Parkway that ends with a right turn "lane" at the Nordstrom driveway. 10'
pedestrian facilities are being installed on Southcenter Parkway north of Strander; 7' south
(east side), matching sidewalk width on Strander. Removing sidewalk on west side of
Southcenter Parkway between Nordstrom & Strander.
11-12- Concur with checklist.
B. ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS:
1. Earth:
a - Concur with checklist.
b - The east and west sides of the slopes of the embankment on either side of
Southcenter Parkway at the intersection with Klickitat Drive is inclined at 50%, and
can be considered a Class 3 geologically sensitive area because it exceeds the 40 %
2
• •
inclination criteria (TMC 18.45.120).
c - Fill over glacially consolidated sand and silt.
d - Concur with checklist.
e - As much fill as possible will be taken from the on-site cut areas.
f - The project could have a temporary effect on the geologic and groundwater
environments because of ground disturbance from grading and construction. This
work could cause erosion and possible downslope sedimentation. The erosion effect
will be mitigated using standard best management practices to contain and control
stormwater runoff, and a Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control (TESC) Plan.
Also, an inadequate factor of safety could occur from excavating a trench within
about 20 feet of the toe of the proposed MSE retaining structure.
g - Sewer should be placed at least 25 feet away from the toe of the MSE retaining
structure if the sewer is relocated.
2. Air:
a - Level of service (LOS) will be maintained or improved because of the project,
even with anticipated increases in traffic volumes in the future. Thus the air quality
will be better than it will be if the project is not built.
b — Concur with the checklist.
c - Concur with the checklist.
3. Water:
a (1) — Gilliam Creek is listed as a Type 2 Stream by the City of Tukwila, and Dept
of Ecology has given it a water quality designation of a Class A watercourse.
a (2) — Work may be done within the Type 2 watercourse buffer of Gilliam Creek.
However, within this buffer, no work will be done outside of the existing paved area
along Southcenter Parkway.
a (3)-a (6) --Concur with checklist.
b (1) — Groundwater infiltration will be reduced by the project's additional
impervious surfaces. However, with such a small amount of additional impervious
surface, it is doubtful that the loss of infiltration will have a substantial effect on
groundwater flow or recharge to the streams in the area.
b (2) - Concur with checklist.
c (1) — Currently, all stormwater within the project limits is conveyed by curb and
gutter to an enclosed system. The highest point of the project site is located at the
intersection of Klickitat Drive and Southcenter Parkway. All stormwater to the north
3
• •
eventually discharges to Gilliam Creek either directly through various culverts
collecting flow from the curb and gutter within Southcenter Parkway, or by first
being directed through the WSDOT detention ponds and the tributary to Gilliam
Creek which flows from the ponds. Gilliam Creek then drains into the Green River
through a flapgate.
Most of the stormwater to the south of the high point normally discharges to the P17
ditch, which is then pumped to the Green River. During overflow conditions, this
stormwater is conveyed to the north to Gilliam Creek. All stormwater along Strander
Boulevard is conveyed to the north and to Gilliam Creek.
Outside, but located adjacent to the project site is an existing combined wet/detention
pond (WSDOT pond) followed by a water quality bioswale located within the
WSDOT right-of-way, north of Klickitat Drive and west of Southcenter Parkway.
The combined wet/detention pond and bioswale receive stormwater runoff from areas
within the I-5 corridor and from parts of Southcenter Parkway.
Impervious surfaces from the project will increase by approximately 1.36 acres. The
project will include stormwater detention vaults in three locations. Stormwater runoff
from the new depressed southbound lanes will be discharged into the existing
WSDOT ponds. To mitigate adding stormwater runoff to the ponds, an equivalent
area currently discharging to the ponds will be re-routed through new facilities.
Therefore, there will be no net increase in stormwater flow entering the WSDOT
ponds. Gilliam Creek and the P-17 ditch will not experience a net increase in flow
rates because detention will be provided for conditions up to the 50 -year design
storm.
c (2) — The project could result in an increase in phosphorus loading from eroding
soils that have been hydroseeded, an increased risk of spills of chemicals associated
with construction activities, and the potential for sediment deposition within the
stream and river beds. Implementing the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan,
following permit guidelines, and applying best management practices will minimize
and avoid effects on water quality during construction.
The project will result in a slight increase in annual pollutant loading due to the
added impervious surface. This increase is considered insignificant. The relative
contribution of pollutant runoff from the project is small when compared with the
total pollutant loading to the lower Green River and Gilliam Creek. These increases
represent about 0.0001 % and 0.0002% of the existing total suspended solids (TSS)
and total phosphorus (TP) loading, respectively, to the lower Green River. Similarly,
the project will result in an increase of 260 pounds of suspended solids per year to
Gilliam Creek, representing about 0.5 % of the total TSS loading. Water quality
4
• •
treatment facilities for all new impervious surfaces will reduce the amount of
pollutants entering Gilliam Creek and the lower Green River.
d — The project will be designed and constructed in compliance with WSDOT
technical guidance and federal, state and local regulations and permits to manage
stormwater and protect water quality and quantity. The project will include
stormwater detention vaults in three locations, and will provide basic and enhanced
treatment for runoff from new impervious surfaces. In addition, the project will
include a Permanent Stormwater Quality Control Plan. The project will meet all
erosion and sedimentation control requirements of King County Surface Water
Design Manual. Hazardous Materials Control Systems and Best Management
Practices will prevent oil spills from entering the surface or ground water.
4. Plants:
a- Scotch broom, reed canary grass, cattails, willow shrubs, Himalayan blackberry,
black cottonwoods, western red cedar, fir, columnar maples, and pin oaks.
b- Removal of vegetation will occur along the steep east slope adjacent to
Southcenter Mall and Southcenter Parkway.
c- No fish use in the P17 ditch. Bull Trout/Dolly Varden use is limited within
Gilliam Creek area — spawning habitat for Bull Trout is not present. Chinook
salmon habitat extends to I-5 in Gilliam Creek, but use appears to be limited. No
nesting territories or foraging areas for eagles documented within action area.
d- Street trees and native and ornamental landscape plantings will be added. A mix
of evergreen and deciduous plantings will replace scotch broom and grasses on
the east slope adjacent to Southcenter Mall and Southcenter Parkway.
5. Animals:
a- Concur with checklist.
b- Chinook salmon, Bull trout/Dolly Varden. Three bald eagle nests are known to be
located in the project vicinity, but none of these are located within the 1 -mile action
area.
c- Concur with checklist.
d- Conservation measures and BMPs will be applied to construction activities to
control sediments in stormwater runoff to Gilliam Creek and the Green River. The
project will include a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Project biologists
believe that the project will not result in the destruction or adverse modification of
Chinook salmon and bull trout critical habitat, and that the project will have no effect
on bald eagles.
6. Energy and Natural Resources:

INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Jack Pace, DCD Director
FROM: Cyndy Knighton, Senior Engineer
DATE: February 11, 2010
SUBJECT: Tukwila Urban Access Improvement Project (Klickitat)
SEPA Determination
Project No. 984410419, 84-RW19
ISSUE
Request for SEPA determination for the Tukwila Urban Access Improvement Project.
BACKGROUND
The planned street improvement project known as the Tukwila Urban Access Improvement
Project, or the Klickitat Project, is nearly fully designed. Public Works anticipates being able to
start construction on this project some time in 2010. Because the project has received several
federal grant funds, the design was required to meet federal NEPA standards. An
Environmental Classification Summary (ECS) was prepared and approved by WSDOT and
FHWA in May 2007. Background reports were required and were submitted along with the
ECS.
ANALYSIS
Although the NEPA approval for this project has already been given, a SEPA determination is
still necessary. Under NEPA standards, this project is a Class II Categorically Excluded project
requiring documentation — a DCE. For past projects, DCD has been able to review the NEPA
documentation and, with concurrence of the NEPA findings, issue a SEPA determination.
RECOMMENDATION
Review the attached NEPA Background Reports and the Environmental Classification Summary
and issue a SEPA Determination of Non -Significance. If a SEPA application fee is to be
charged, the budget number to use is 104.98.595.800.41.00 (Professional Services, General
Fund) and the Project Accounting number is 98410419.100.107.
ATTACHMENTS
NEPA/ECS Approval (3 copies)
NEPA Background Reports (13 individual reports): Traffic Analysis; Air Quality; Environmental
Justice; Acquisitions and Relocations; Aesthetics and Visual Impacts; Stormwater; Fish and
Aquatic Resources; Biological Assessment; Water Quality; Section 106 — Identification of Areas
of Potential Effects; Geology, Soils, Groundwater, and Geologically Sensitive Areas; Hazardous
Materials — Phase 1; Noise.

REVIEWERS: Please specify how the attached plans conflict with your ADOPTED
development regulations, including citations. Be specific in describing the types of changes you
want made to the plans. When referencing codes, please identify the actual requirement and
plan change needed.
The Planning Division review does not supplant each department's ability to administer its own
regulations and permits. However, project consistency at the Planning review stage is
important to minimize significant later design changes. More than minimal design changes
require further Planning Commission review, even if alteration is required to satisfy a City
requirement. This further review is typically a minimum 60 -day process.
Requirements based on SEPA (e.g., not required by an adopted development regulation)
MUST identify the impact being mitigated, ,the policy basis for requiring mitigation, and the
method used to calculate the mitigation required. Calculations ofproject impacts and the
mitigation required (e.g., water capacity, road level of service analyses, or turning analyses)
may be required of the applicant.

Directions
This Screening Checklist has been designed to evaluate the potential for your project to
result in potential "take" of Chinook salmon, Coho salmon, or Cutthroat trout as defined by
Section 9 of the Endangered Species Act. The checklist includes a series of "Yes" or "No"
questions about your project, organized into four parts. Starting with Part A on Page 1, read
each question carefully, circle "Yes" or "No," and proceed to the next question as directed
by the checklist. To answer these questions, you may need to refer to site plans, grading.
and drainage plans, critical areas studies, or other documents you have prepared for your
project. The City will evaluate your responses to determine if "take" is indicated.
Part A: Please review and answer each question carefully. Consider all phases of your project
including, but not limited to, construction, normal operation, potential emergency operation, and
ongoing and scheduled maintenance. Continue to the next question as directed for each No or Yes
answer.
1-0
Will the project require any form of grading? Grading is defined as any excavating, filling,
clearing, or creation of impervious surface, or any combination thereof, which alters the
existing ground surface of the earth (TMC 18.06.370). Please circle appropriate response.
• NO - Continue to Question 2-0
YES - Continue to Question 1-1 (Page 3)
2-0
Will the project require any form of clearing? Clearing means the removal or causing to be
removed, through either direct or indirect actions, any vegetation from a site (18.06.145).
Please circle appropriate response.
NO - Continue to Question 3-0
CIO Continue to Question 2-1 (Page 4)
3-0
Will the project require work, during any time of the project, below the ordinary high water
mark of a watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers or in wetlands? Ordinary high
water mark is the mark that is found by examining the bed and banks of a stream and
ascertaining where the presence and action of waters are so common and usual as to distinctly
mark the soil from that of the abutting upland, in respect to vegetation (see TMC Chapter
18.06, Page 18-15). Please circle appropriate response.
O - ontinue to Question 4-0
YES - Continue to Question 3-1 (Page 5)
4-0
Will the project result in the processing or handling, storage, or treatment of hazardous
substances? This does not include the proper use of fuel stored in a vehicle's fuel tank.
Hazardous substances are any liquid, solid, gas, or sludge, including any material, substance,
product, commodity, or waste, regardless of quantity, that exhibits the characteristics or criteria
of hazardous waste as defined by Washington Administrative Code 173-303 (TMC 18.06.385).
This includes fuel or other chemicals stored on-site during construction. Please circle
a • • ropriate response.
O - ' ontinue to Question 5-0

Will the project result in the withdrawal, injection, or interception of groundwater? Examples
of projects that may affect groundwater include, but are not limited to: construction of a new
well, change in water withdrawals from an existing well, projects involving prolonged
construction dewatering, projects installing French drains or interceptor trenches, and sewer
lines. For the purpose of this analysis, projects that require a geotechnical report pursuant to
the requirements of TMC 18.45.060 or would require a geotechnical report if not exempt
should answer Yes. Please circle appropriate response.

City of TukwSA Screening Checklist
Part A (continued)
6-0 Will the project involve landscaping or re -occurring outdoor maintenance that includes the
regular use of fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides? This does not include the one-time use of
transplant fertilizers. Landscaping means natural vegetation such as trees, shrubs,
groundcover, and other landscape materials arranged in a manner to produce an aesthetic effect
appropriate for the use of the land (TMC 18.06.490). For the purpose of this analysis, this
includes the establishment of new lawn or grass. Please circle appropriate response.
NO — Checklist Complete
YE — Checklist Complete
Part B: Please answer each question below for projects that include grading. Review each
question carefully, considering all phases of your project including, but not limited to
construction, normal operation, potential emergency operation, and ongoing and scheduled
maintenance. Continue to the next question as directed for each No or Yes answer.
1-1
Will the project involve the modification of a watercourse bank or bank of the
Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers between the ordinary high water mark and top of bank? This
includes any projects that will require grading on any slope leading to a river or stream, but
will not require work below the ordinary high water mark. Work below the ordinary high
water mark is covered in Part C. Please circle appropriate response.
- Continue to Question 1-2
YES - Continue to Question 1-2
1-2 Could the construction, operation, or maintenance of the project result in sediment transport off
site or increased rates of erosion and/or sedimentation in watercourses, the Green/Duwamish
rivers, or the Black River? Most projects that involve grading have the potential to result in
increased erosion and/or sedimentation as a result of disturbances to the soil or earth. If your
project involves grading and you have not prepared a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Plan specifically designed to retain 100 percent of the runoff (including during
construction) from impervious surface or disturbed soils, answer Yes to this question. If your
project is normally exempt under the Tukwila Municipal Code and would not require the
preparation of a Temporary Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan, BUT may still result in
erosion or sediment transport off site or beyond the work area, answer Yes to this question.
Please circle appropriate response.
NO - Continue to Question 1-3
- Continue to Question 1-3
1-3 Will the project result in the construction of new impervious surfaces? Impervious surfaces
include those hard surfaces which prevent or restrict the entry of water into the soil in the
manner that such water entered the soils under natural conditions prior to development; or a
hard surface area that causes water to run off the surface in greater quantity or at an increased
rate of flow from the flow presented under natural conditions prior to development. Such areas
include, but are not limited to, rooftops, asphalt or concrete paving, compacted surfaces, or
other surfaces that similarly affect the natural infiltration or runoff patterns existing prior to
development (TMC 18.06.445). Please circle appropriate response.
NO - Continue to Question 2-0 (Page 2)

1-4 Will your project generate stormwater from the creation of impervious surfaces that will not be
infiltrated on site? For the purpose of this analysis, infiltration includes the use of a
stormwater treatment and management system intended to contain all stormwater on site by
allowing it to seep into pervious surface or through other means to be introduced into the
ground. If your project involves the construction of impervious surface and does not include
the design of a stormwater management system specifically designed to infiltrate stormwater,
answer Yes to this question. Please circle appropriate response.

City of TukuSSA Screening Checklist
Part D: Please review each question below for projects that include work below the ordinary high
water mark of watercourses or the Duwamish/Green or Black Rivers or in wetlands. Review each
question carefully, considering all phases of your project including, but not limited to,
construction, normal operation, potential emergency operation, and ongoing and scheduled
maintenance. Continue to the next question as directed for each No or Yes answer.
3-1 Will the project involve the direct alteration of the channel or bed of a watercourse, the
Green/Duwamish rivers, or Black River? For the purpose of this analysis, channel means the
area between the ordinary high water mark of both banks of a stream, and bed means the
stream bottom substrates, typically within the normal wetted -width of a stream. This includes
both temporary and permanent modifications. Please circle appropriate response.
Illial - Continue to Question 3-2
YES - Continue to Question 3-2
3-2 Will the project involve any physical alteration to a watercourse or wetland connected to the
Green/Duwamish River? For the purpose of this analysis, "connected to the river means"
flowing into via a surface connection or culvert, or having other physical characteristics that
allow for access by salmonids. This includes impacts to areas such as sloughs, side channels,
remnant oxbows, ditches formed from channelized portions of natural watercourses or any area
that may provide off channel rearing habitat'for juvenile fish from the Duwamish River. This
includes both temporary construction alterations and permanent modifications. Watercourses
or wetlands draining to the Green/Duwamish River that have a hanging culvert, culvert with a
flap gate, diversion, or any entirely man-made or artificial structure that precludes fish access
should answer Yes to this question. Please circle appropriate response.
CN) - Continue to Question 3-3
YES - Continue to Question 3-3
3-3 Will the project result in the construction of a new structure or hydraulic condition that could
be a barrier to salmonid passage within the watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black
Rivers? For the purpose of this analysis, a barrier means any artificial or human modified
structure or hydraulic condition that inhibits the natural upstream or downstream movement of
salmonids, including both juveniles and adults. Please circle appropriate response.
4E0 - Continue to Question 3-4
YES - Continue to Question 3-4
3-4 Will the project involve a temporary or permanent change in the cross-sectional area of a
watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers? For the purpose of this analysis, the
cross-sectional area is defined as a profile taken from the ordinary high water mark on the right
bank to the ordinary high water mark on the left bank. Please circle appropriate response.
"Y - Continue to Question 3-5 '
YES - Continue to Question 3-5
3-5 Will the project require the removal of debris from within the ordinary high water mark of a
watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers? For the purpose of this analysis, debris
includes, but is not limited to fallen trees, logs, shrubs, rocks, piles, rip -rap, submerged metal,
and broken concrete or other building materials. Projects that would require debris removal
from a watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers as part of a maintenance activity
should answer Yes to this question. Please circle appropriate response.

City of Tuku•SA Screening Checklist
3-6 Will the project result in impacts to watercourses or wetlands that have a surface connection to
another watercourse or the Green/Duwamish or Black Rivers but do not contain habitat
conditions that support salmonid use? Such areas may include, but not be limited to hillside
seeps and wetlands isolated from the watercourse or river that have a surface water connection
to the watercourse or river but are not assessable, nor would be assessable to salmonids under
natural conditions. Wetlands with a "functions and values" rating for baseflow/groundwater
support of 9 and above (or moderate) as described in Cooke (1996) should be included. Please
circle appropriate response.
NO Continue to Question 3-7
YES - Continue to Question 3-7
3-7 Will the project include the construction of artificial waterways or wetlands connected to a
watercourse containing salmonids? For the purpose of this analysis, the construction of
artificial waterways or wetlands includes wetlands, channels, sloughs, or other habitat feature
created to enhance wildlife use, particularly waterfowl use, or may be attractive to wildlife,
particularly waterfowl. Please circle appropriate response.
CN—)- Continue to Question 3-8
YES - Continue to Question 3-8
3-8 Will the project include bank stabilization? For the purpose of this analysis, bank stabilization
includes, but is not limited to, rip -rap, rock, log, soil, or vegetated revetments, concrete
structures, or similar structures. Please circle appropriate response.
