Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
ABSTRACT Environmental Science Associates (ESA) was retained by OTAK on behalf of Community Transit to conduct a cultural resources survey for the Swift II Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) II project. Community Transit is preparing to construct approximately thirty-four (34) BRT stations along an approximate 12-mile corridor, which includes portions of SR 527, SR 96/132 nd Street SE, 128th Street SE/SW, Airport Road, and Seaway Boulevard. Many of the proposed stations are located either on existing paved sidewalks/roadways or on previously disturbed vegetated areas along the road corridor. The project will involve construction of an in-lane, concrete bus pad approximately 70 foot by 16 feet, and the station platform and sidewalk approach will be modified to meet surrounding site conditions such as abutting sidewalks, ADA ramps, street paving, landscaping, and curbs and gutters. ESA performed pedestrian survey, subsurface survey, and recorded historic properties in and adjacent to the Area of Potential Effect (APE). No National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) properties or archaeological sites were identified during the project. ESA recommends that site 45-KI-528, located approximately 300 feet to the east of the intersection of SR 527 and 196 th Street SE (where sidewalk improvements are proposed) is not eligible for listing in the NRHP. The site does not retain integrity and is not eligible under any of the four National Register criteria for listing. If DAHP concurs with this recommendation, then sidewalk improvements proposed for the area east of the intersection of SR 527 and 196 th Street SE, would not have an effect to Historic Properties. While the potential for encountering archaeological resources is low throughout the APE, ESA recommends the development of an Inadvertent Discovery Plan (IDP) that will outline protocols and procedures to be followed in the event of construction encountering cultural resources.

1.0 INTRODUCTION ESA was retained by OTAK on behalf of Community Transit to conduct a cultural resources assessment in Snohomish County, Washington. The project is located along a 12-mile corridor between Bothell, Mill Creek, and Everett in Sections 6, 7, 18, 19, and 30 of Township 27 North, Range 5 East, and Sections 30 and 31 of Township 28 North, Range 5 East, and Sections 11, 14, 23, 25, and 26 of Township 28 North, Range 4 East on the Bothell, Everett, and Mukilteo 7.5’ series topographic maps (Figures 1-4).
2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Community Transit is preparing to construct approximately thirty-four (34) BRT stations along an approximate 12-mile corridor, which includes portions of SR 527, SR 96/132 nd Street SE, 128th Street SE/SW, Airport Road, and Seaway Boulevard. The station improvements will include construction of transit platforms and associated site improvements, and installation of shelters and amenities. Associated site improvements are anticipated to include installation of concrete aprons in front of the stations, modifications to existing curb and gutter, and sidewalk, modifications to existing storm drainage, utility relocations, signing and striping modifications, traffic signal improvements and modifications, and retaining wall construction at some locations. Based on the station site evaluation currently being completed, station sites will include fifteen (15) station pairs, a single northbound station at 220 th Street SE, a single station with extended platform at Canyon Park Park & Ride, and two station shelters with amenities at the proposed Seaway Transit Center. A southbound drop-only platform on 17 th Avenue SE in Canyon Park is also proposed. The project will include the relocation, modification, and/or removal of some existing local stops adjacent to the stations. It is estimated that 18 existing local stops will be modified and/or relocated. Many of the proposed stations are located either on existing paved sidewalks/roadways or on previously disturbed vegetated areas along the road corridor. Each station is made up of a 60-foot by 16 foot raised loading platform with pedestrian shelter and windscreens, kiosks, an iconic marker, and two ticket vending machines. In front of each station will be an in-lane, concrete bus pad approximately 70 foot by 16 foot. The station platform and sidewalk approach will be modified to meet surrounding site conditions such as abutting sidewalks, ADA ramps, street paving, landscaping, and curbs and gutters. The primary ground disturbance for each station will be associated with installation of the four foundations—three for the station shelter and one for the iconic marker. The foundations are each approximately four feet by four feet and up to six feet deep. Each station includes a concrete platform, similar in cross-section to a sidewalk. Excavation for other site improvements will be approximately two feet in depth, with utility trenching up to six feet in depth. Temporary impacts include equipment staging and site access. ESA Page 1 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
The Swift II BRT project will also include project elements to improve safety and reliability to transit service within the congested travel corridor, and to improve connectivity between the stations and surrounding neighborhoods. To provide improved transit reliability, reduced travel time, and improved safety for Swift operation, roadway improvements are proposed at three locations within the corridor: 128 th Street SW/SE at I-5, northbound SR 527 at 164 th Street SE, and southbound SR 527 at SR 524/208 th Street SE. The 128 th Street transit Improvements at I-5 will include construction of a westbound business access and transit (BAT) lane on the north-side of 128 th Street SE from 3 rd Avenue SE to approximately 100 feet west of the northbound ramp intersection at I-5, and construction of an eastbound right-turn lane on the south-side of 128 th Street SW from approximately 50 feet east of 4th Avenue W to approximately 100 feet beyond the southbound ramp intersection at I-5. The additional eastbound lane allows the existing eastbound outside travel lane to become a transit/right-turn only lane approaching the southbound I-5 ramp. The SR 527 northbound transit queue bypass improvements at 164 th Street SE will include intersection modifications and construction of an 800-foot BAT lane, extending the existing right-turn pocket south of 164 th Street SE by 550-feet. The SR 527 southbound transit queue bypass at SR 524/208 th Street SE will include intersection modifications and construction of a BAT lane through the SR 524 intersection approximately 400-feet south of the intersection. These roadway improvements will include roadway widening, curb and gutter, sidewalk, retaining walls, traffic signal modifications and relocations, traffic island modifications, storm drainage installation and modifications, and utility relocations. To improve connectivity between the Swift II BRT stations and surrounding neighborhoods, new pedestrian facility connections and improvements to existing pedestrian facilities are proposed at five (5) locations within the corridor. These improved connections include the installation of new sidewalk to complete gaps in existing pedestrian facilities at the following locations: • along 196 th Street SE east of the stations on SR 527 at 196 th Street SE, • along 10 th Drive SE and 129 th Street SE east of the stations on 128 th Street SE/SR 96 at Elgin Way, • along 134 th Street SW and 4 th Avenue W just southwest of the stations on 128 th Street SW at 4 th Avenue W, and • along Marino Ave and Center Road northwest of the stations on Airport Road at SR 99.
Improvements to existing ADA ramps are also proposed in these areas and at Beverly Park Road and 112 th Street SW east of the stations on Airport Road at 112 th Street SW. The primary ground disturbance of the roadway and pedestrian facility improvements will be associated with utilities, stormwater facilities, and traffic signal foundations, with depths up to six feet. The street and sidewalk work will involve similar excavation to the station construction, with depths approximately two to four feet, but will extend to cover the full width of the proposed widening areas of the additional travel lane and sidewalk.

3.0 REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT Federal funding of the Swift II BRT project requires that the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (“Section 106”). Section 106 requires that the FTA consider the effects of this undertaking upon Historic Properties within the project’s Area of Potential Effects (APE). Federal code implementing Section 106, found at 36 CFR 800, includes a requirement that an effort be made to identify Historic Properties. In coordination with the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP), the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe, the Snoqualmie Nation, the Stillaguamish Tribe, the Suquamish Tribe, the Tulalip Tribes, the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation, and other stakeholders, Community Transit and FTA defined the APE for the Project (Appendix A). This report has been prepared to meet the standards of the Section 106 process. This report documents all of the steps taken to consider the effects of the Project on Historic Properties, and the results of the investigation. Additional laws that apply to archaeological projects conducted within the State of Washington include Archaeological Sites and Resources Law (RCW 27.53), Indian Graves and Records Law (RCW 27.44), Human Remains Law (RCW 68.50), and Abandoned and Historic Cemeteries and Historic Graves Law (RCW 68.60).
4.0 AREA OF POTENTIAL EFFECTS The APE consists of proposed station locations along an approximately 12-mile long road corridor (Figures 1-4). Some equipment staging will take place on adjacent, paved properties. Areas planned for ground disturbance include station locations and the road corridor (where utility work is required)—though impacts to the latter will be minimal. The APE also includes those areas where street or sidewalk improvements may be required. The maximum depth of ground disturbance for the station shelter foundations, and utilities and stormwater facilities construction, where the most impacts will be located, is up to six feet. Although the Swift II BRT corridor is approximately 12 miles long, no physical or operational changes are proposed outside of the station areas shown on the APE maps in Appendix A—with the exception of sidewalk improvements at five stations (also shown in Appendix A).
5.0 BACKGROUND RESEARCH METHODS ESA conducted a literature review of the APE extending one-half mile in every direction from the footprint of the APE. Information reviewed included previous archaeological survey reports, ethnographic studies, historic maps, government landowner records, aerial photographs, regional histories, geological maps, soils surveys, and environmental reports. These records were reviewed in order to determine the presence of any potentially significant cultural resources, including Traditional Cultural Properties (TCPs), within the APE. Relevant documents were
ESA Page 7 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment examined at the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP), the University of Washington Libraries, online, and ESA’s research library.
6.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
6.1 Geology and Geomorphology The Swift II BRT APE is located in the Puget Lowland physiographic province, a low-lying area between the Cascade Mountains to the east and the Olympic Mountains and Willapa Hills to the west. The geomorphology of the Puget Lowland is the result of Vashon Stade of the Fraser Glaciation, during which the Puget Lobe of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet extended, at its maximum, south of present-day Olympia, approximately 17,400 years ago (Troost and Booth 2008). As the ice sheet retreated, Puget Lowland accumulated glacial till, outwash, and recessional lacustrine deposits, including terraces, moraines, and glacial till plains. Most of the project area has been substantially altered by grading, construction of the SR 527, SR 96/132 nd Street SE, 128 th Street SE/SW, and Airport Road road corridors, and utility installation. The project will occur along terraces and low-gradient hills. The APE is underlain by three glacially-derived geological units (Minard 1982, 1985). At the extreme southern end of the APE is Vashon recessional outwash deposited as the glacier retreated for the final time from the area. This consists primarily of stratified sand and gravel. From the south end north to the proposed station at SR 527 and 153 rd Street SE is advance outwash—a thick section of gray, pebbly sand. Fine-grained sand is more common in the lower elevations, and these deposits were the result of meltwater flowing from the advancing front of the glacier, or as deltas in ponded water. The third unit is Vashon till, and is found from SR 527 and 153 rd Street SE to the northern terminus of the APE corridor on Seaway Blvd.
6.2 Soils The terrain changes quite a bit over the length of the 12-mile corridor, but soils in the APE are generally of the Everett gravelly sandy loam series, the Alderwood gravelly sandy loam series, or Urban Land (NRCS 2015). The Everett series soils are the result of glacial outwash, while the Alderwood soils are alluvium. Urban Land soil is that which has been heavily modified by human development.
6.3 Flora and Fauna The project falls within the Tsuga heterophylla vegetation zone, which encompasses most of western Washington (Franklin and Dyrness 1988). Vegetation typical to this zone today consists of a mixture of native and invasive, nonnative plants. Native species characteristic of this environment include a variety of ferns, Oregon grape, ocean spray, blackberry, red huckleberry, western red cedar, Douglas fir, and western hemlock. Native fauna in this zone include deer,
Page 8 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment cougar, elk, bear, coyotes, beaver, skunk, quail, grouse, weasel, muskrat, and river otter. Historically, North Creek (which runs parallel to and just west of SR 527, and crosses 128 th Street SE/SW) supported runs of chinook, sockeye, kokanee, and coho salmon and steelhead and coastal cutthroat trout (KCWLRD 2013).
7.0 ETHNOGRAPHIC BACKGROUND
7.1 Overview The Swift II BRT APE is located within the traditional territory of the Snohomish and Suquamish people; both are considered part of the larger Southern Coast Salish cultural groups (Haeberlin and Gunther 1930:9; Spier 1936:42; Suttles and Lane 1990). One of the main Snohomish villages was Hibólb , located on the south side of the mouth of the Snohomish River, approximately six miles north of the APE (Hilbert et al. 2001:335; Tweddell 1974). Another source suggests the Suquamish lived “south of Everett, about Mukilteo and on the islands opposite” while another informant claims, “they only lived on the islands” (Haeberlin and Gunther 1930:10; Spier 1936:34-35); other studies support the presence of the Suquamish at the mouth of the Snohomish River (Lane 1974:15). The Snohomish and Suquamish were signatories of the 1855 Treaty of Point Elliott; the Suquamish are a Federally-recognized tribe but the Snohomish are not (BIA 2003). The Snohomish are, however, part of the Tulalip Tribes today. The Snohomish and Suquamish people share traditional cultural and linguistic characteristics with that of the Southern Coast Salish culture group; they spoke a common dialect of the Northern Lushootseed language (Suttles and Lane 1990:485). The Snohomish, also known as the Sinahomishes or the Sneomuses , are often divided into four different subdivisions: the Sdugwadskabsh who lived on the southern portion of Whidbey Island; the Skwilsi′diabsh who lived above Everett at Preston Point to the southern tip of Camano Island and on Tulalip Bay near Marysville; the Snohomish ( sadahóbc ) who lived on the Snohomish River from Port Gardner Bay to Snohomish City; and the Tukwetlbabsh who lived on the Snohomish River from Snohomish City to Monroe (Smith 1941:208; Swanton 1979:46). Some ethnographers make a further division and include the Kwehtlmamish , a group that was considered to be under the control of the Snohomish and that occupied the drainage basin of the Pilchuck River (Spier 1936:35; Tweddell 1974:587). Major Snohomish villages occupied during the late 1800s-early 1900s included Hibólb and Priest Point, located just north of the mouth of the Snohomish River, and Tctlaks , located in today’s city of Everett on the south side of the mouth of the Snohomish River (Smith 1941:208; Spier 1936:35; Swanton 1979:46). The Suquamish are sometimes divided into two subdivisions: the Saktabsh and Suquamish. Saktabsh villages occupied during the late 1800s-early 1900s were located at Bremerton and Eagle Harbor while Suquamish subdivision villages were located at Suquamish, north of Poulsbo, and on Point Monroe. General areas traditionally used by both subdivisions included Sinclair Inlet, Dyes Inlet, Blakely Island, Liberty Bay, and Port Madison (Swanton 1979:78).
ESA Page 9 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
Both the Snohomish and Suquamish relied heavily upon salmon for subsistence, supplementing this diet with other resources found in marsh and river environments. North Creek and the Snohomish River, along with other nearby rivers, lakes, and forests would have provided fishing and hunting opportunities for resources such as salmon, beaver, waterfowl, deer, elk, bear, and other animals as needed. Local hunting and fishing was practiced during the lean winter months, while groups shared supplies of preserved food, including smoked fish and shellfish and dried berries. Smaller groups moved seasonally during the warmer months and occupied temporary camps, providing a broad subsistence base including shellfish, marine and freshwater fish, land game, waterfowl, sprouts, roots and bulbs, berries, and nuts (Suttles and Lane 1990). Food resources acquired during the spring, summer, and fall were used for winter supplies and trade as well as immediate consumption. In addition, varieties of plant resources were exploited for medicinal and other uses. Western red cedar was used for making rope, baskets, and numerous household items; tules and cattails were collected near streams and marshes and used for making mats (Suttles and Lane 1990:490). Permanent villages usually consisted of several houses typically constructed of cedar planks. Permanent villages were where communities aggregated at the close of the growing season. The predominant burial practice was canoe/tree burials whereby the deceased would be placed in a canoe and the canoe placed in a tree or on a frame (Haeberlin and Gunther 1930:53; Suttles and Lane 1990:496). Often, as the canoe decayed and collapsed, the human remains would come to rest on the ground below. After Euroamerican contact, the Snohomish traded freely with the Hudson’s Bay Company, often travelling north to Fort Langley or south to Fort Nisqually (Ruby and Brown 1992:212; Suttles and Lane 1990:499). Starting in the 1820s, Roman Catholic missionaries had begun travelling through the Puget Sound area teaching Christian doctrine using a trade language known as Chinook Jargon and the Catholic Ladder, a visual depiction of the history of the church (Suttles and Lane 1990:500). In 1856, Father E. C. Chirouse arrived in the Tulalip area and established a mission and a school, teaching the Snohomish not only Christian beliefs but also agriculture and other occupational skills all in an attempt to suppress their traditional practices. A Roman Catholic missionary was also assigned to the Suquamish Reservation (Suttles and Lane 1990:500). Euroamerican settlement of the Snohomish River Valley area began during the 1850s when settlers started to arrive and reconfigure the land toward their ends. With the passage of the 1850 Donation Land Act of Oregon, settlers began to claim homestead lands throughout the Washington Territory. The traditional mobile subsistence strategies of native hunter-fisher- gatherers were increasingly disrupted as Euroamerican settlement progressed. Early Euroamerican settlements and land claims were understandably focused around key routes of access and areas rich in resources. The Snohomish River Valley offered excellent timber resources and agricultural opportunities for settlers.
Page 10 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
Increasing impacts on native hunter-fisher-gatherers in Puget Sound are documented by the treaties that were signed and the reservations that were established. Some members of the Snohomish were relocated to the Tulalip Reservation after the Point Elliott Treaty was signed near present-day Mukilteo in 1855 (BIA 2003:15). The Tulalip Reservation also was intended for the Skykomish, the Snoqualmie, and the Stillaguamish. Others were removed to Fox Island, Whidbey Island, and Port Gamble on the Kitsap Peninsula (Ruby and Brown 1992:213). Although a recognized signatory of the Point Elliott Treaty, the Snohomish are still pursuing Federal recognition. Today many Snohomish still live within their ancestral lands (Ruby and Brown 1992:216). The Suquamish were also signatories of the Point Elliott Treaty, which established the Port Madison Reservation for the intended occupation by the Suquamish and Duwamish (Lane 1974:10-11). The Suquamish are Federally-recognized.
7.2 Ethnographic Resources within the Project Vicinity Ethnographic studies list eight Lushootseed place names near the APE, specifically, in those areas near Lake Washington or Puget Sound (Hilbert et al. 2001:112; Tweddell 1974) (Table 1). Only one of these, CtcƐl, is in the APE. These place names refer to villages, geological features, or other aspects of the natural environment. Overall, they suggest at least seasonal usage of the area for camping and fishing. Table 1. Recorded Place Names near the APE.

It would seem safe to say, therefore, that it is a term which resists etymology. A certain Mr. Fowler reports (as cited by Meany) that the term is the Indian word for “good camping ground.” My own informants could make no suggestions concerning its meaning. It was an excellent place to fish, and numbers of people camped here, though it was not a permanent village. Sklels / č̓ əq̓ ʷilc A spot on the shore very close to Point Elliott.

8.0 HISTORIC BACKGROUND
8.1 Overview The APE is located in what was historically a remote portion of south Snohomish County. In 1874, surveyors made no note of homesteads, trails, or wagon roads in the area. The closest wagon road was the “Old Military Road from Seattle to Whatcom” that ran along the current alignment of 164 th Street SE (US Surveyor General 1874) (Figure 5). By 1895, a wagon road passed through the southern portion of the APE, providing access to Bothell, which at the time was over three miles to the south along the Sammamish River (USGS 1895). This wagon road, known today as the Bothell-Everett Highway / SR 527, connected the growing towns of Bothell and Everett (USGS 1895). In 1897, North Creek Valley contained merchantable forests, which inspired commercial logging efforts of the valley (USGS 1897). Once cleared, fertile valley lands were developed into large farms and dairies. This was aided by the construction of Seattle’s Montlake Cut and Chittenden Locks in 1916 which lower the levels of Lake Washington and Sammamish River by approximately eight feet; this resulted in exposure of formerly inundated and fertile lands within North Creek Valley (Knapp 2002:17-18). The APE remained primarily agricultural through much of the 20 th century. Most of the area was owned by lumber companies, with the area becoming platted for residential use in the 1930s and 1940s (Anderson Map Company 1910a; Metsker 1927a; Kroll Map Company 1934a, 1943a). Many area farms closed in the 1970s-1980s, presumably due to increased demand for commercial and residential development, as shown on historic maps (Anderson Map Company Page 12 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
1910b, 1910c; Metsker 1927b, 1927c; Kroll Map Company 1934b, 1934c, 1943b, 1943c; USGS 1958a, 1958b, 1958c, 1969a, 1969b, 1969c, 1976a, 1976b, 1976c). The intersection of Maltby Road / 208 th Street SE and Bothell-Everett Highway (SR 527) was historically known as Thrasher’s Corner and was a major intersection during the 20 th century. It was named after the Thrasher family who moved to the area from Seattle in 1928 and ran a service station, repair garage, and towing operation at this intersection (Kennard 1992:17). Initially, Freda and Lyman Thrasher lived with their children at the southwest corner of the intersection, in a house located behind the garage. In 1937 the family purchased land in the southeast corner of the intersection and moved their business and residence east across SR 527. They lived in this location until the 1950s (Kennard 1992:17). As development spread outward from SR 527, property owned by lumber companies was developed into residential tracts (Anderson Map Company 1910b, 1910c; Kroll Map Company 1934b, 1934c, 1943b, 1943c; Metsker 1927b, 1928b). At the north end of the APE, Snohomish County purchased property in 1935 for the Snohomish County Airport, now known as Paine Field.

9.0 PREVIOUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH
9.1 Previous Cultural Resource Surveys In preparation for this project, ESA conducted a records search of DAHP’s online Washington Information System for Architectural and Archaeological Records Data (WISAARD) on April 20, 2015. The records search resulted in the identification of 42 previous cultural resource surveys (Table 2) and five recorded sites (Table 3) within a one-mile radius of the proposed project. None of the recorded archaeological sites is located within the APE. Four cultural resources assessments have been conducted within the APE (Bundy 2009; Knapp 2002; Liddle et al. 2002; Nelson and Blukis Onat 2003) and one was conducted on adjacent property (Hartmann 2008). Three of these included subsurface investigations (Bundy 2009; Liddle et al. 2002; Nelson and Blukis Onat 2003) and resulted in data demonstrating that the area along the road corridor has been disturbed by road construction and utility installation.

9.2 Previously Recorded Archaeological Resources There are five recorded archaeological sites within one mile of the Project APE (Table 3). Two of these are located on property adjacent to the APE: 45-SN-459 and 45-SN-528. The former is an historic debris and lithic scatter associated with the Johnson Dairy. The latter is a buried corduroy road segment beneath modern 196 th Street SE. Neither site has had a formal NRHP eligibility determination. 9.2.1 45-SN-459: North Creek Johnson Dairy historic debris scatter and prehistoric lithic site Located at Thrasher’s Corner near the intersection of SR 527 and 208 th Street SE, the Johnson Dairy is a mixed component site. The historic debris is associated with a former dairy that occupied the area from the turn of the 20 th century into the 1940s. The precontact materials are more tenuous, and are possibly associated with a temporary camp. The stratigraphy of the site has been substantially disturbed (Kanaby 2007; Wilson et al. 2011).
Page 16 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
9.2.2 45-SN-528: 196 th Street SE Corduroy Road This is a corduroy road segment located beneath 196th Street SE near the intersection of SR 527. The road consisted of 55 split timbers placed to ease traffic across a wet environment (Kanaby 2009). The timbers did not extend west into the intersection of SR 527. Table 3.

9.3 Historic Resources within the Project Vicinity No recorded historic properties are in or adjacent to the APE. The Blue Moon Kennel complex, built in 1940, was at the intersection of SR 527 and 220 th Street SE (Harvey 1992). It has since been demolished, and the property is now occupied by a commercial complex.
9.4 Expectations Each station location is located alongside a road corridor where the ground has been disturbed during road construction, utility installation, and ditch excavation. Therefore, the probability of encountering buried, intact cultural resources is considered low.
10.0 FIELD ASSESSMENT METHODS
10.1 Archaeological Survey On March 20, 2015, ESA archaeologist Alicia Valentino performed a site visit to each of the proposed station locations. The condition of each station location was examined, and
ESA Page 17 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment photographs were taken. The purpose of the visit was to investigate the accuracy of the DAHP predictive model and determine if a subsurface investigation of each station location was necessary. The results of that windshield survey, in concert with the known history of the area and conclusions drawn from nearby cultural resources surveys, suggests that there is little likelihood of encountering intact subsurface cultural resources during construction of the proposed Project. A subsurface survey of the 128 th Street SW location was completed on September 24 and 25, 2015. The goal of the shovel probes was to reach the anticipated depth of disturbance—six feet at station locations and three feet in those areas for other improvements.
10.2 Historic Resources Assessment Six properties in or adjacent to the APE were assessed as historic resources. For a structure to be considered, a built date before 1970 was used (45 years before the date of this report). None of the recorded buildings had been previously reported beyond the inventory level. An Historic Property Inventory (HPI) form, with NRHP recommendation, was completed for each of the six resources recorded.
11.0 RESULTS No archaeological sites were identified during project fieldwork, and none of the historic resources are recommended eligible for listing in the NRHP.
11.1 Archaeological Survey A windshield survey was conducted of the entire 12-mile corridor with walk overs at each station location. The corridor and station locations varied from in-use roadways, landscaped areas alongside the corridors, drainage ditches, and sidewalks. Following the windshield survey, six structures 45 years or older and located adjacent to a proposed station location were identified during the survey. These are recorded in section 12.1 below. Only those structures adjacent to a proposed station location were recorded. ESA archaeologist Bryan Hoyt excavated eight shovel probes across the portion of the APE at the 128 th Street SW location (Figure 6 and Figure 7). Probes were focused on proposed station locations and those areas proposed for sidewalk improvement. Locations were selected to avoid pavement and utilities. Probes were excavated to a depth between 30 and 127 cm below surface (cmbs; 1 to 4.1-feet) and were terminated when the desired depth was reached, on cobble obstructions, or in undisturbed glacial sediments (C-horizon). Sediment was screened through ¼- inch hardware mesh. Any material encountered were recorded and reburied in their probe of origin. No materials were collected. The shovel probe results are shown in Appendix B. Only two of the eight probes (SP-04 and SP-08) were terminated in an undisturbed C-horizon— glacial outwash or alluvium. The remaining six probes were excavated in fill sediment, or fill Page 18 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment mixed with glacial/alluvial material. These six locations would have little probability for containing cultural resources. Likewise, the presence of fill overlying glacial sediments in both SP-04 and SP-08 suggests ground disturbance and grading of the surface that would have been available during historic occupation. Therefore, there is also little probability for these areas to contain cultural resources.

11.2 Historic Resources Survey Six structures were inventoried at the reconnaissance level. The HPI forms are provided in Appendix C. None of the structures are recommended eligible for listing in the NRHP. 11.2.1 19525 Bothell-Everett Highway, Bothell Built in 1968, the Mom’s Tattoo building is a one-story, side-gabled, commercial building serving as a tattoo parlor. It has a rectangular floor plan, poured concrete foundation, and asphalt-composite shingle, moderate-gabled roof. The cladding is aluminum siding. The windows are either two-lite slider windows or large panes. There are two entrances to the building from the front (west) elevation, and two exits in the rear. Statement of Significance The original owner, architect, engineer, and builder are unknown. The building shows no obvious alterations with the exception of new paint. The building’s integrity is considered good; however, it does not appear to embody stylistic characteristics or a method of construction that would warrant special recognition. Furthermore, it is not located in a cohesive grouping of similar building types. Therefore, the property does not appear eligible for listing in the NRHP based upon its architectural qualities or associations.

ESA Page 21 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
11.2.2 915 Elgin Way, Everett Built in 1960, the building at 915 Elgin Way is a one-story, cross-gabled, Ranch-style, single- family dwelling (Figure 9). It has an L-plan, moderate gable roof, and concrete foundation. The cladding is wood lap and the windows are two-lite sliders. Alterations to the building are unknown, but a carport and unattached portable have been constructed. Statement of Significance The original owner, architect, engineer, and builder are unknown. The building shows no obvious alterations, with the exception of new paint and a new roof. The building’s integrity is considered good. The building exhibits many of the elements of a mid-20 th century Ranch-style home, including a moderately pitched, cross-gabled roof with slight overhang. However, it does not appear to embody stylistic characteristics or a method of construction that would warrant special recognition. Furthermore, it is not located in a cohesive grouping of similar building types. Therefore, the property does not appear eligible for listing in the NRHP based upon its architectural qualities or associations.

11.2.3 12724 East Gibson Road, Everett Built in 1940, the building at 12724 East Gibson Road is a one-story, wood-frame, modern- minimalist style, single-family residence with rectangular plan, side-gable, and exterior vestibule (Figure 10). The cladding is wood T1-11 and the windows are two-lite sliders. The building shows no obvious alterations, with the exception of a new roof. Statement of Significance The original owner, architect, engineer, and builder are unknown. The building’s integrity is considered good; however, it does not appear to embody stylistic characteristics or a method of construction that would warrant special recognition and it is not located in a cohesive grouping of similar building types. Therefore, the property does not appear eligible for listing in the NRHP based upon its architectural qualities or associations.

11.2.4 101 128 th Street SE, Everett 98208 Built in 1969, the Quality Inn & Suites at 101 128 th Street SE is a four-story, concrete block hotel with rectangular plan, mansard-style, flat roof. Rather than the traditional double-pitch mansard roof, the Quality Inn roof has slopes on all four sides that culminate in a flat surface (Figure 11). Statement of Significance The original owner, architect, engineer, and builder are unknown. The building’s integrity is considered good. The building is utilitarian, but has a variation of the mansard-style roof, as described above. The building does not appear to embody stylistic characteristics or a method of construction that would warrant special recognition and it is not located in a cohesive grouping of similar building types. Therefore, the property does not appear eligible for listing in the NRHP based upon its architectural qualities or associations.

12.0 INTERPRETATION & EVALUATION
12.1 Archaeological Assessment ESA interprets deposits encountered within shovel probes to consist of either fill material throughout the probe, or fill overlying glacial sediments that has been graded (likely during road construction or utility installation). ESA did not observe any evidence to suggest the presence of intact cultural resources. This is consistent with previous cultural resources assessments conducted in the APE (Bundy 2009; Liddle et al. 2002; Nelson and Blukis Onat 2003). Therefore, the potential for archaeological resources is low. Those five stations proposed for sidewalk improvements were not archaeologically tested. Four of these are considered low to moderate risk for cultural resources. However, sidewalk improvements located to the east of the intersection of SR 527 and 196 th Street SE would occur over a recorded archaeological site, 45-SN-528, the 196 th Street Corduroy Road. At the time of discovery, the project archaeologist consulted with the lead federal agency for that project and, after documenting the remains, removed and cut several timbers (Kanaby 2009). A portion of the site remains—timbers extending into the north trench wall, beneath the existing sidewalk. Sidewalk improvements have the potential to intersect with a portion of this site. As part of the Swift II Project, the 196 th Street Corduroy Road was evaluated for its potential eligibility for listing in the NRHP using criteria defined by 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 60.4. Under 36 CFR 60.4, the criteria for evaluating significance of a cultural resource is as follows: The quality of significance in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering, and culture is present in districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects that possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association and: (a) that are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history; or (b) that are associated with the lives of persons significant in our past; or (c) that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or (d) that have yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.
ESA Page 27 March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment
Criterion A: The 196 th Street Corduroy Road is not associated with important historic events. It was likely constructed to fill a marshy area. Historic maps suggest the area was not well traveled as the road was non-paved in 1927 (Metsker 1927b) and dirt in 1942 (Metsker 1942). Furthermore, the road was unnamed and is not associated with any major developments or activities in the area. Therefore, ESA recommends that the site is not eligible for listing in the NRHP under Criterion A. Criterion B: The 196 th Street Corduroy Road is not associated with historically significant people. No famous people or important lives appear to be associated with the road. Therefore, ESA recommends that the site is not eligible for listing in the NRHP under Criterion B. Criterion C: The 196 th Street Corduroy Road is of expedient construction and is not engineered. The road does not hold any distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction. There also is no evidence of it being the work of a master, of having high artistic value, or representing a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Although, there is no information about when the corduroy road was constructed, the road alignment remained unpaved into the 1940s (Metsker 1942). Therefore, ESA recommends that the site is not eligible for listing in the NRHP under Criterion C. Criterion D: This is the criterion most often used for archaeological sites. While the 196 th Street Corduroy Road maintains integrity of design and materials, its ability to provide previously unknown information about the past is limited. The road does not appear to possess information that cannot be obtained through the documentary record, and therefore, is recommended not eligible to the NRHP under Criterion D. For these reasons, ESA recommends site 45-SN-528 is not eligible for listing in the NRHP.
12.2 Historic Properties Assessment None of the historic resources recorded for this project are recommended eligible for listing in the NRHP. Therefore, there will be no impacts to historic properties caused by the proposed project.
13.0 RECOMMENDATIONS ESA recommends that site 45-KI-528, which may be impacted by sidewalk improvements, is not eligible for listing in the NRHP. If DAHP concurs with this recommendation, then sidewalk improvements at the SR 527 and 196 th Street SE stations (#3031 and 3050), would
Page 28 ESA March 31, 2016 Swift BRT II Cultural Resource Assessment not have an adverse effect to Historic Properties. While the potential for encountering archaeological resources is low throughout the APE, ESA recommends the development of an Inadvertent Discovery Plan (IDP) that will outline protocols and procedures to be followed in the event of construction encountering cultural resources. The findings and professional opinions included in this report are based on standard archaeological techniques including pedestrian survey and shovel testing; however each has its limitations. It is possible that unanticipated cultural resource materials may be encountered during construction. In the event that cultural resources are observed during implementation of the project then work should be temporarily suspended at that location and a professional archaeologist should be consulted. These procedures should be outlined in the IDP. Pursuant to RCWs 68.50.645, 27.44.055, and 68.60.055, if ground disturbing activities encounter human skeletal remains during the course of construction, then all activity will cease that may cause further disturbance to those remains. The area of the find will be secured and protected from further disturbance. The finding of human skeletal remains will be reported to the county medical examiner/coroner and local law enforcement in the most expeditious manner possible. The remains will not be touched, moved, or further disturbed. The county medical examiner/coroner will assume jurisdiction over the human skeletal remains and make a determination of whether those remains are forensic or non-forensic. If the county medical examiner/coroner determines the remains are non-forensic, then they will report that finding to the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) who will then take jurisdiction over the remains. The DAHP will notify any appropriate cemeteries and all affected tribes of the find. The State Physical Anthropologist will make a determination of whether the remains are Indian or Non-Indian and report that finding to any appropriate cemeteries and the affected tribes. The DAHP will then handle all consultation with the affected parties as to the future preservation, excavation, and disposition of the remains.

The building exhibits many of the elements of a mid‐20th century Ranch‐style home, including a moderately pitched, cross‐ gabled roof with slight overhang. However, it does not appear to embody stylistic characteristics or a method of construction that would warrant special recognition. Furthermore, it is not located in a cohesive grouping of similar building types. Therefore, the property does not appear eligible for listing in the NRHP based upon its architectural qualities or associations.
