Overview and Background 600 Stewart Street Seattle, Washington 98101 206.728.2674 June 14, 2016 Washington State Department of Ecology 3190 160th Avenue SE Bellevue, Washington 98008 Attention: Heather Vick, Site Manager, Toxics Cleanup Program Subject: Data Gaps Report and Request for NFA Opinion Letter_FINAL 8th and Thomas JVLLC – VCP # NW2976 777 Thomas Street Seattle, Washington GeoEngineers File No. 20341-001-03 OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND GeoEngineers, Inc. (GeoEngineers) is submitting this letter on behalf of 8th and Thomas JVLLC (8&T JVLLC) to the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) in response to Ecology’s letter dated May 13, 2016 regarding the completed cleanup action at the 777 Thomas Street property (the “Property”) performed by 8th and Thomas JV LLC pursuant to VCP Project No. NW2976. The Property is located in the South Lake Union neighborhood of Seattle. The Property is bounded by Thomas Street to the north, 8th Avenue North to the east, private property (a church) to the south and an alley to the west. The location of the Property is shown in Figure 1. The Property consists of four lots, referred to as Lots 1, 2, 3 and 4. Figure 2 shows the locations of the Lots relative to the surrounding features. The Property and any locations where contamination originating from the Property may have come to be located (the “Site”) was enrolled in Ecology’s Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP #NW2976) in June 2015 following the cleanup action completed concurrent with redevelopment. The cleanup action consisted of remedial excavation of all contaminated soilduring removal of soil throughout the entire Property to a depth of at least 25 feet below original ground surface, with vertical sidewalls at each of the boundary lines of the Property. A seven story high-rise building with two levels of underground parking (“Mark on 8th”) has since been constructed on the Property. http://www.macfarlanepartners.com/projects/mark-on-8th/ Ecology reviewed the June 2015 VCP application and submittal materials and provided an advisory opinion letter dated May 13, 2016 requesting additional information. For ease of reference, a copy of Ecology’s May 13, 2016 letter is included in Appendix A. This response letter provides the additional information requested, and addresses the data gaps identified by Ecology in their May 13, 2016 letter. All actual and potential releases of contamination at the Site have been adequately characterized and appropriate remedial actions have been completed consistent with MTCA, as demonstrated by the information provided in this letter and attachments. The data confirms that conditions at, on and beneath Washington State Department of Ecology | June 14, 2016 Page 2 the Site no longer pose a threat to human health and the environment, and that a No Further Action (NFA) opinion is warranted. On behalf of 8th & Thomas JV LLC, we request that Ecology review the information provided and issue a No Further Action (NFA) opinion. ASSESSMENT AND CLEANUP ACTION REPORTS The following reports previously provided to Ecology summarize the environmental conditions and completed remedy at the Site: ■ “Subsurface Exploration, 8th and Thomas Site, 777 Thomas Street, Seattle, Washington 98109,” dated January 9, 2009.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION Construction began for the Mark on 8th project, a seven-story multifamily residential building with two levels of underground parking, in 2014. Construction activities began with the installation of vertical soldier piles and timber lagging around the entire perimeter of the Property to allow mass excavation of all soil contained within the Property to a depth of approximately 25 to 31 feet below the original ground surface (e.g. street grade, which is PHOTO 1: November 11, 2014. Shoring installed around the perimeter of the property and approximately elevation 78 to 81). the beginning of mass excavation (soil removal). Photo 1 (taken on November 11, 2014) shows the shoring system in place and the beginning of mass excavation (soil removal) activities. During mass excavation activities all fill and native soil were removed from the ground surface to a depth ranging from 25 to 31 feet below ground surface (bgs) across the entire Property. No groundwater was encountered File No. 0000-001-00 File No. 20341-001-03 Washington State Department of Ecology | June 14, 2016 Page 3 during construction excavation down to 31 feet bgs. The depth to groundwater was deeper than the lowest elevation of the excavation. It was not necessary to perform any construction dewatering during mass excavation because no groundwater was present. At the time construction began, one 675-gallon heating oil UST had already been removed from Lot 4 (The Riley Group, 2010). Remaining environmental conditions of potential concern identified by the Phase I and II ESAs included two additional underground storage tanks (USTs; one on Lot 1 and one on Lot 3), and one hot spot of residual contaminated soil on Lot 4. The USTs were removed, and contaminated soil in the vicinity of the USTs along with the hot spot on Lot 4 were remediated during the mass excavation activities in 2014. The USTs and contaminated soil were excavated and transported off site for permitted disposal. Confirmation soil samples were obtained to confirm the successful removal of all contaminated soil from the Property (GeoEngineers, 2014). Following the completion of the mass excavation that resulted in the removal of fill and native soil across the entire subject property from ground surface to a maximum depth of 31 feet bgs, the seven-story multifamily residential building with two stories of underground parking was constructed. The completed building is shown in Photo 2. RESPONSE TO ECOLOGY COMMENTS PHOTO 2: Completed Mark 8 Project. Ecology listed ten bulleted comments in their May 13, 2016 letter and requested additional information. The ten comments are summarized below. Ecology’s comments are paraphrased in italic, bold font, followed by the requested information to address the data gap inbulleted paragraphs. Ecology Comments 1, 2 and 3: Historical information indicates the presence of potential sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), specifically tetrachloroethylene (PCE), on Lots 1 and 2, which was not investigated. ■ Response: Subsurface explorations were completed on Lots 1 and 2 in 2008 and 2011 by G-Logics and Geosyntec, respectively. Six soil samples obtained from five borings completed on Lot 1 (Figure 3) and three soil samples obtained from two borings on Lot 2 (Figure 3) were submitted for chemical analysis of VOCs. The data are presented in the G-Logics report dated 2009, and the Geosyntec report dated 2011. PCE was not detected in any of the soil samples tested (a total of nine samples).All other VOCs analyzed were not detected in any of the soil samples tested with one exception: 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene (0.067 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg]) was detected in the soil sample B7-5. A cleanup level for 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene has not been established. In addition, one soil vapor sample was obtained from Lot 1 in 2011 and submitted for chemical analysis of VOCs. Neither PCE nor any other VOCs were detected in the soil vapor sample. Three soil-vapor samples were obtained from Lot 2 in 2011 and submitted for chemical analysis of VOCs. PCE was not detected in each of the soil vapor samples and other VOCs were not detected above screening levels with the exception of trichloroethene (TCE), which was detected at concentrations above the File No. 0000-001-00 File No. 20341-001-03 Washington State Department of Ecology | June 14, 2016 Page 4 screening level in two of the three soil vapor samples obtained on Lot 2. However, TCE was not detected in nearby soil samples and did not exceed criteria in deeper soil vapor samples. A summary of the soil and soil vapor samples obtained and chemical analytical results are presented in Table 1 below. The approximate locations of the historic sources of contamination and the 2008 and 2011 explorations tested for VOCs are shown in Figure 3. The locations of the explorations evaluated for VOCs, as well as the spatial distribution of the borings and the depths of the samples (see cross-section on Figure 3) tested are sufficient to assess for possible VOC releases and their potential impact. As demonstrated by the data, the investigation findings do not show evidence of a VOC release.

  • Parks and Recreation
    PARKS AND RECREATION Parks and Recreation Overview of Facilities and Programs The Department of Parks and Recreation manages 400 parks and open areas in its approximately 6,200 acres of property throughout the City, works with the public to be good stewards of the park system, and provides safe and welcoming opportunities for the public to play, learn, contemplate, and build community. The park system comprises about 10% of the City’s land area; it includes 485 buildings, 224 parks, 185 athletic fields, 122 children's play areas, 24 community centers, 151 outdoor tennis courts, 22 miles of boulevards, an indoor tennis center, two outdoor and eight indoor swimming pools, four golf courses, studios, boat ramps, moorage, fishing piers, trails, camps, viewpoints and open spaces, a rock climbing site, a conservatory, a classical Japanese garden, and a waterfront aquarium. The development of this system is guided by the Seattle Parks & Recreation Plan 2000, the 38 neighborhood plans, the Joint Athletic Facilities Development Program with the Seattle School District, the 1999 Seattle Center and Community Centers Levy, the 2000 Parks Levy, and DPR’s annual update to the Major Maintenance Plan. 2000 Parks Levy In November 2000, Seattle voters approved a $198.2 million levy lid lift for Parks and Recreation. The levy closely follows the plan forged by the Pro Parks 2000 Citizens Planning Committee. The levy is designed to fund more than 100 projects to improve maintenance and enhance programming of existing parks, including the Woodland Park Zoo; acquire, develop and maintain new neighborhood parks, green spaces, playfields, trails and boulevards; and add out-of-school and senior activities.

  • Way to Grow News for Urban Gardeners
    way to grow news for urban gardeners JUNE/JULY 2009 | VOLUME 32 | NUMBER 3 Do Goats Belong in Your Garden? Jennie Grant, President & Founder, Goat Justice League, and a Seattle Tilth instructor “The prudent man does not make the goat his gardener,” says an old Hungarian prov- erb, and it certainly is hard to imagine how a goat could beautify your garden. However, a farm animal “garden room” adds tremen- dous interest to your yard, and with a hand- some goat shed and lots of wood chips, it lends a certain charm. Goats are always up to something interesting–relaxing in the sun, chewing their cud, or trying figure out a way to break out of their yard and eat your prize rose bushes. While adding interest to the garden, for many Seattleites, the primary reason to keep goats is the milk they produce.

  • City of Seattle Edward B
    City of Seattle Edward B. Murray, Mayor Finance and Administrative Services Fred Podesta, Director July 25, 2016 The Honorable Tim Burgess Seattle City Hall 501 5th Ave. Seattle, WA 98124 Councilmember Burgess, Attached is an annual report of all real property under City ownership. The annual review supports strategic management of the City’s real estate holdings. Because City needs change over time, the annual review helps create opportunities to find the best municipal use of each property or put it back into the private sector to avoid holding properties without an adopted municipal purpose. Each January, FAS initiates the annual review process. City departments with jurisdiction over real property assure that all recent acquisitions and/or dispositions are accurately represented, and provide current information about each property’s current use, and future use, if identified. Each property is classified based on its level of utilization -- from Fully Utilized Municipal Use to Surplus. In addition, in 2015 and 2016, in conjunction with CBO, OPI, and OH, FAS has been reviewing properties with the HALA recommendation on using surplus property for housing. The attached list has a new column that groups excess, surplus, underutilized and interim use properties into categories to help differentiate the potential for various sites. Below is a matrix which explains the categorization: Category Description Difficult building site Small, steep and/or irregular parcels with limited development opportunity Future Use Identified use in the future

  • Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Final
    C-025-001 FHWA, WSDOT, and the City of Seattle appreciate receiving your comments. The project has evolved since comments were submitted in 2004, please refer to this Final EIS for information on the current alternatives. The preferred Bored Tunnel Alternative would not have a tunnel operations building near Pike Place Market. The Cut-and-Cover Tunnel Alternative does include a tunnel operations building that would be constructed on the block bounded by Pine Street, SR 99, and the Alaskan Way surface street. C-025-002 The Steinbrueck Park Lid is part of the Cut-and-Cover Tunnel Alternative in this Final EIS. The preferred Bored Tunnel Alternative and the Cut- and-Cover Tunnel Alternative would have beneficial effects on the views from the Market and Victor Steinbrueck Park, as the aerial viaduct structure that currently intervenes in the views to the west, would no longer be part of the landscape. SR 99: Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Project Final EIS - Appendix T 2010 Comments and Responses July 2011 C-025-003 There is no monitoring planned specifically for areaways in Pioneer Square or Pike Place Market since the areaways are some distance away from the bored tunnel. However, when individual building monitoring plans are developed some areaways may be included and monitored as needed. A number of Pike Place Market buildings on First Avenue and Pike Place would be routinely monitored for potential settlement. At least 5 of these buildings have areaways, which are believed to be in good condition. C-025-004 WSDOT briefed the Commission on the project in April 2011.
