Chapter 6 Current Conditions STORM AND SURFACE WATER SYSTEM PLAN January 2016 CHAPTER 6 CURRENT CONDITIONS - STATE OF THE STORM AND SURFACE WATER SYSTEM This chapter describes the state of the natural and constructed storm and surface water system as it exists in the first decade of the 21st century. Existing or baseline conditions of the storm and surface water system are described and used to evaluate the system that forms the basis of the Storm and Surface Water Basin Plan recommendations. This chapter is organized into three major categories 1) Flood Protection, 2) Water Quality Protection, and 3) Fish and Wildlife Habitat. Storm and Surface Water System Plan recommendations are based on analyses of each of these categories. Existing Conditions of the Storm and Surface Water System Background The City of Bellevue is part of the larger Puget Sound drainage basin. Located in the Lake Washington/Cedar/Sammamish Water Resource Inventory Area, stormwater originating in Bellevue either drains to Lake Sammamish east of the city or Lake Washington to the west. Lake Sammamish itself is a tributary to Lake Washington via the Sammamish River. Lake Washington drains to the Puget Sound via the Lake Washington Ship Canal (Ship Canal) at Montlake, then to Lake Union, and eventually through the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks (Ballard Locks) in Seattle to the Puget Sound. The storm and surface water system in Bellevue consists of a Historic logging in western Washington created series of open streams, a network of pipes, long-term impacts to streams and watersheds. storage facilities, lakes, ponds, wetlands, collection, and treatment facilities all in a mix of public and private ownership. As described in the City’s original Drainage Master Plan (KCM-WRE/YTO 1976), the mosaic of public and private drainage system components work together to perform the system’s critical functions of conveyance, flood protection, and environmental protection. Bellevue’s storm and surface water system is a direct result of the topography, current and historic land uses, regulations, and geology of the area. The city covers approximately 32 square miles. There are about 79 miles of streams within the city limits; approximately 13 miles of large-lake shoreline (Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish); and 3 small lakes (Larsen Lake, Lake Bellevue, and Phantom Lake). Figure 6-1 shows the open channel stream system in Bellevue, including the 26 drainage basins.

City of Bellevue streams and drainage basins. 6-2 Chapter 6 - Current Conditions - State of the Storm and Surface Water System STORM AND SURFACE WATER SYSTEM PLAN January 2016 Stormwater systems collect and convey the portion of total rainfall that is not otherwise lost to evaporation, plant uptake, or soil storage. The “excess” rainfall flows through pipes and streams while making its way to the receiving water body. Establishing the existing conditions of the storm and surface water system requires a brief discussion of the variables that contribute to the state of the system. The quality, volume, and rate of stormwater runoff is influenced by rainfall patterns, soils, geology of the area, land surfaces, vegetative cover, and social behavior. Appendix B-1 provides the Bellevue Stormwater Basin Fact Sheets for each drainage basin. Rainfall Storm and surface water systems are intrinsically related to climate. The timing and distribution of rainfall events in the Pacific Northwest have sculpted the physical, biological, and chemical balances of open stream systems. Bellevue receives on average 36.6 inches of rain each year (see Figure 6-2 Annual Rainfall). The historical Pacific Northwest rainfall pattern is distinctly divided into two seasons—a dry summer and fall followed by a prolonged rainy season in the winter. On average, 79 percent of the annual precipitation falls during the wet season from October through April (see Figure 6-3 Average Monthly Rainfall). Because most of the precipitation occurs during the winter months, plant uptake and evaporation have marginal effects on rainfall consumption. The remainder must either be stored in the soil profile or it becomes the source of water for streams. In October, when the rainy season begins, the soil profile has been largely depleted of excess moisture because the growing season has just ended. The availability of soil moisture storage is an important component for overall stormwater management. Flood control, water quality improvement, and habitat protection are directly affected by how much of the total amount of precipitation becomes stormwater runoff rather than being infiltrated into the soil profile, or lost to plant uptake and evaporation. What remains, the excess precipitation, becomes the stormwater runoff that the Utilities Department and private property owners are tasked with managing. Over the last few years, rainfall has not followed historical patterns. Staff will be monitoring rainfall to determine whether there are consistent changes in the timing or intensity of rainfall.

The surface soils and geology in Bellevue were generally formed by glaciers, which receded approximately 10,000 years ago. Soils were originally mapped by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) (Snyder et al. 1973). Most soils in Bellevue can be classified as glacial till, glacial outwash, or wetland soils. Till soils are generally compacted and do not readily allow water to infiltrate. Outwash soils mostly consist of sand and gravel, and tend to allow water to infiltrate. Wetland soils are generally at low elevations that receive water, and are saturated with water or ponded for most of the year.

  • An Oral History Project Catalogue
    1 A Tribute to the Eastside “Words of Wisdom - Voices of the Past” An Oral History Project Catalogue Two 2 FORWARD Oral History Resource Catalogue (2016 Edition) Eastside Heritage Center has hundreds of oral histories in our permanent collection, containing hours of history from all around East King County. Both Bellevue Historical Society and Marymoor Museum had active oral history programs, and EHC has continued that trend, adding new interviews to the collection. Between 1996 and 2003, Eastside Heritage Center (formerly Bellevue Historical Society) was engaged in an oral history project entitled “Words of Wisdom – Voices of the Past.” As a part of that project, Eastside Heritage Center produced the first Oral History Resource Catalogue. The Catalogue is a reference guide for researchers and staff. It provides a brief introduction to each of the interviews collected during “Words of Wisdom.” The entries contain basic information about the interview date, length, recording format and participants, as well as a brief biography of the narrator, and a list of the topics discussed. Our second catalogue is a continuation of this project, and now includes some interviews collected prior to 1996. The oral history collection at the Eastside Heritage Center is constantly expanding, and the Catalogue will grow as more interviews are collected and as older interviews are transcribed. Special thanks to our narrators, interviewers, transcribers and all those who contributed their memories of the Eastside. We are indebted to 4Culture for funding this project.

  • Migration and Residence Patterns of Salmonids in Puget Sound, Washington
    © Copyright 2016 Frederick A. Goetz Migration and Residence Patterns of Salmonids in Puget Sound, Washington Frederick A. Goetz A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Thomas P. Quinn, Chair Timothy E. Essington David Beauchamp Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences University of Washington Abstract Migration and Residence Patterns of Salmonids in Puget Sound, Washington Frederick A. Goetz Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Thomas P. Quinn School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences Diadromy is an unusual but widely distributed form of migration in fishes, and thus understanding these fishes requires a full knowledge of their behavior in both marine and freshwater environments. Freshwater ecology is easier to study and so our understanding is more advanced compared to our understanding of their marine ecology. This dissertation was focused on anadromous salmonids that were hypothesized to express a range of marine migration patterns from estuarine resident to ocean-bound migrants, in a suite of species native to Puget Sound: steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), coastal cutthroat trout (O. clarkii clarkii), bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus), and Chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha). The study results will help inform a general model of the marine migrations of these salmonids within the Puget Sound. The study is organized into chapters by species. Abstracts for each chapter are described below. This dissertation describes the movements of individual anadromous salmonids of four species to determine the extent to which migration patterns vary among the species, populations and marine sub-basins within Puget Sound.

  • The Great Outdoors by Bus
    28 » On Trail March + April 2011 » Washington Trails The Great Outdoors by Bus Think a car is the eleventh essential? Reaching trailheads by public transit may be easier than you think A point-to-point hike without doing the two-car shuffle? A day trip without a stop at the gas station? Getting out into the woods without a car? It’s all possible. Both King County Metro Transit and Sound Transit offer easy, reliable bus access to and from several popular destinations in the Issaquah Alps. One of my favorite bus-accessible hikes is West Tiger #3 Sum- mit. The 5-mile round-trip hike up Tiger Mountain’s west side winds along a wide, well-maintained trail that climbs 2,100 feet through forest and fern with breakthrough views down to the val- leys below. The last half mile climbs steeply up a rougher, narrower path, but the views from the top are worth the effort. Puget Sound glimmers in the distance with the snowcapped Olympic Mountains as a backdrop. Cougar and Squak Mountains fill in the foreground. The West Tiger #3 Summit is an excellent choice for a quick up- and-down hike. It is well used year-round by trail runners, seasoned and neophyte hikers, dogs and their people, and those looking for a solid conditioning route. On summer weekdays, it’s popular as an after-work stress reliever. When I have a little extra time, I like to tack on an easy stroll around the calm waters of Tradition Lake or relax in one of the many byways along the wide, flat trail.

Executive Session The meeting was called to order at 6:15 p.m., with Mayor Lee presiding. There was no Executive Session. 2. Oral Communications (a) Bill Hirt encouraged the City Council to use the City’s permitting process to stop the East Link light rail project. He spoke in favor of using bus rapid transit (BRT) as an alternative. If light rail is to be constructed, he believes that Sound Transit should provide a full tunnel in Bellevue between I-90 and the Downtown, as the agency has in much of Seattle. Mr. Hirt submitted his comments in writing. (b) Scott Lampe referred to the memo from the Arts Commission in Council’s desk packet which indicates a possible reduction of $10,000 in arts funding. He said he has been a Board Member for the Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra for the past 10 years. He spoke to the importance of the orchestra for youth and for the community. (c) David Plummer encouraged the Council to reject the City Manager’s proposed budget and to request a revised budget with reduced spending. He said the proposed utilities rate increases should be rejected, and he expressed a number of concerns about utilities rates and financial policies. He encouraged the Council to review the agreement with the Cascade Water Alliance and to work to decrease water rates.

  • Countervailing Factors Affecting the Timing of Spawning by Coho and Chinook Salmon
    Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 131:591±598, 2002 q Copyright by the American Fisheries Society 2002 Arti®cial Selection and Environmental Change: Countervailing Factors Affecting the Timing of Spawning by Coho and Chinook Salmon THOMAS P. Q UINN,* JERAMIE A. PETERSON,VINCENT F. G ALLUCCI, WILLIAM K. HERSHBERGER,1 AND ERNEST L. BRANNON2 School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences, Box 355020, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195, USA Abstract.ÐSpawning date is a crucial life history trait in ®shes, linking parents to their offspring, and it is highly heritable in salmonid ®shes. We examined the spawning dates of coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch and chinook salmon O. tshawytscha at the University of Washington (UW) Hatchery for trends over time. We then compared the spawning date patterns with the changing thermal regime of the Lake Washington basin and the spawning patterns of conspeci®cs at two nearby hatcheries. The mean spawning dates of both species have become earlier over the period of record at the UW Hatchery (since the 1950s for chinook salmon and the 1960s for coho salmon), apparently because of selection in the hatchery. Countering hatchery selection for earlier spawning are the increasingly warmer temperatures experienced by salmon migrating in freshwater to, and holding at, the hatchery. Spawning takes place even earlier at the Soos Creek Hatchery, the primary ancestral source of the UW populations, and at the Issaquah Creek Hatchery. Both species of salmon have experienced marked shifts towards earlier spawning at Soos Creek and Issaquah Creek hatcheries despite the expectation that warmer water would lead to later spawning.
