Jackson St., MS KSC-NR-0505 Seattle, WA 981 04-3855 Phone 206-684-1 71 4 FAX 206- 684-1 278 DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE TITLE OF PROPOSAL: University Slough Wastewater Overflow Mitigation Project-Phase C DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL: The ICing County Wastewater Treatment Divisioil (WTD) proposes to complete the third phase of a three-phase project initiated in response to a May 2008 sewer spill into University Slough. During investigation of the sewer spill, WTD learned that during storm events combined storm water and sewage could enter a stream transfer pipe designed to carry Ravenna Creek flow to University Slough. WTD immediately implemented Phase A of the project, which consisted of inserting a plug into the Ravenna Creek stream transfer pipe when wet weather was expected. Phase A continued until mid-2010. Phase B, which took place during summer 2010, involved extending the Ravenna Creek stream transfer pipe and making other modifications to the stream transfer system to ensure that Ravenna Creek flow could travel coiitinuously through an isolated stream pipe to University Slough without risk of cross- contamination with sewage. This Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) addresses Phase C of the project, which would consist of the installation of three large logs with root wads in University Slough as mitigation for Phases A and B of the project. Phase C would be constructed sometime between July and September of 201 1 and take approximately two weeks to complete. LOCATION OF PROPOSAL, INCLUDING STREET ADDRESS, IF ANY: The proposal is located in northeast Seattle at the University Slough drainage canal between NE 45th Street and NE Clark Road, just south of University Village Shopping Center.

(Lead agencies may modify this form to include additional specific information on project description). In 2004, King County day-lighted a section of Ravenna Creek in the southeast comer of Ravenna Park. The County also redirected a portion of the creek flow that was conveyed by the combined sewer system to the West Point Treatment Plant in Magnolia to University Slough. During investigation of a May 2008 sewer spill into University Slough, WTD learned that during storm events combined storm water and sewage could enter the stream transfer pipe that was designed to carry the diverted Ravenna Creek flow to University Slough. The County responded to this incident with the three-phased project that is described in the following paragraphs. Phase A of the project was implemented immediately after the May 2008 sewer spill into University Slough. It consisted of inserting an inflatable plug into the Ravenna Creek stream transfer pipe (which carries Ravenna Creek flow to University Slough) when wet weather was expected. The purpose of Phase A was to prevent sewage and March 1, 201 1 Page 2 SEPA Checklist Unii~er-sitySlough kVastevvater Overflow Mitigation Project storm water from entering the stream transfer pipe during the time that a permanent solution to the problem was designed and constructed (Phase B). Phase B of the project took place during summer 201 0. It involved extending the Ravenna Creek stream transfer pipe and making other modifications to the stream transfer system to ensure that Ravenna Creek flow could travel continuously through an isolated stream pipe to University Slough without risk of cross-contamination with sewage. Phase C of the project is the proposal evaluated in this environmental checklist. It involves the installation of three large logs with root wads (called "large woody debris" or "LWD") in University Slough as mitigation for the temporary rerouting of Ravenna Creek flow to the combined sewer system instead of University Slough during Phases A and B of the project. Placement of LWD in the Slough would create fish habitat and promote biological diversity. The LWD would consist of three cedar or fir logs with root wads that would be placed in the Slough and its buffer as shown on the attached Site Plan. Each of the logs would be approximately 20 feet long and approximately 16 to 20 inches in diameter at breast height. The bank-side end of each log would be embedded in the ground and anchors would be used to permanently secure the logs in place.

    Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment The SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project area encompasses one of the most diverse and complex human and natural landscapes in the Puget Sound region. It includes areas in Seattle from I-5 to the Lake Washington shore, the waters of Lake Washington, and a portion of the Eastside communities and neighborhoods from the eastern shoreline of the lake to Evergreen Point Road. It also includes densely developed urban and suburban areas and some of the most critical natural areas and sensitive ecosystems that remain in the urban growth area. The project area includes the following: ▪ Seattle neighborhoods—Eastlake, Portage Bay/Roanoke, North Capitol Hill, Montlake, University District, Laurelhurst, and Madison Park ▪ The Lake Washington ecosystem and the bays, streams, and wetlands that are associated with it ▪ The Eastside community of Medina ▪ Usual and accustomed fishing areas of the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, who have historically used the area’s fisheries resources and has treaty rights for their protection and use This chapter describes what the project area is like today, setting the stage for the project’s effects described in Chapters 5 and 6. 4.1 Transportation The configuration of SR 520 today, with its inadequate shoulders and gaps in HOV lanes, makes the corridor especially prone to traffic congestion. And, as commuters on SR 520 know, the corridor is overloaded with traffic on a regular basis. Population and employment continue to grow both on the Eastside and in Seattle, resulting in new travel patterns and a steady rise in the number of vehicles crossing the Evergreen Point Bridge.

Other Contributors and Role: Shane Cherry (Mitigation Discipline Lead, Confluence Environmental Company) Jeff Meyer, PWS (Sr. Wetland Biologist, Parametrix, Inc.) Ken Sargent (Wetland Biologist, Headwaters Environmental Consulting, Inc.) 1 Executive Summary 2 The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) is proposing to construct the I-5 3 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project (SR 520, I-5 to Medina Project) to reduce 4 transit and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) travel times and to replace the aging spans of the 5 Portage Bay and Evergreen Point bridges, which are highly vulnerable to windstorms and 6 earthquakes. The project will also widen the State Route (SR) 520 corridor to six lanes from I-5 7 in Seattle to Evergreen Point Road in Medina, and will restripe and reconfigure the lanes in the 8 corridor from Evergreen Point Road to 92nd Avenue NE in Yarrow Point. The project will 9 complete the regional HOV lane system across SR 520, as called for in regional and local 10 transportation plans. 11 The SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project (SR 520, I-5 to Medina 12 Project) extends approximately 5.2 miles, from the interchange at I-5 in Seattle eastward to 13 Evergreen Point Road in Medina, on the east side of Lake Washington.
