Environmental Application No. PLO 1-0031 Parcel No. 122401-2-038-2005 Date issued: June 21, 2001 ACTION: Commercial Site Plan review: Albertsons Grocery Store, ancillary Retail Shops structure, and Fuel Center. PROPOSAL: Albertsons, Inc. proposes to redevelop a six (6) acre portion of the former Bremerton Middle School site. The project proposal includes construction of a new 51,150 square foot, full service Albertsons Grocery Store, an 11,300 square foot ancillary structure for retail shops, and a 1,814 square foot "A -Express" fuel center. Public roadway improvements, associated parking, landscaping and utility infrastructure improvements are also proposed. LOCATION: The project site is located at the northeast corner of Wheaton Way (SR303) and Sheridan Road in the NW Quarter, of Section 12, Township 24 North, Range 1 East, W.M. PROPONENT: Albertsons, Inc. The Responsible Official of the City of Bremerton hereby makes the following Findings and Conclusions based upon a review of the environmental checklist and attachments, other information on file with the City of Bremerton, and the policies, plans, and regulations designated by the City of Bremerton as a basis for the exercise of substantive authority under the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) pursuant to RCW 43.21C.060. FINDINGS OF FACT: Proposal is for the construction of a new 51,150 square foot, full service Albertsons Grocery Store, an 11,300 square foot ancillary structure for retail shops, and a 1,814 square foot "A -Express" fuel center with underground fuel storage tanks. Associated site development includes the export of approximately 7,000 cubic yards of excavated material, and the importation and grading of approximately 2,200 cubic yards of sub -base material for impervious surface placement. Approximately 85% of the proposed development area will be covered with impervious surfaces including provisions for parking 260 vehicles. Public roadway improvements, associated parking, fencing, landscaping and utility infrastructure improvements and an on-site storm water/drainage system are also proposed. The project will be served by public water and sewer. 2. The proposal is located on a six (6) acre portion of the former Bremerton Middle School site, located at the northeast comer of Wheaton Way (SR -303) and Sheridan Road. Topographically, the site is relatively flat and is devoid of any significant vegetation. No wetlands or surface waters are located on the site. The project is located in a General Business (GB) zone classification and land use in the vicinity includes some mixed use strip commercial on both sides of SR -303 (Wheaton Way). Improved ball fields are located immediately east of the project and school facilities remain functional on the north side of the proposal site. A Traffic Impact Analysis was prepared by Gibson Traffic Consultants and presented for review February 14, 2001. Supplemental traffic analysis reports were prepared on April 26, 2001 and on May 26, 2001. The reports analyzed the impacts of traffic generated from the proposed commercial development on the street system serving the proposed project. The proposed development at full occupancy is expected to result in an increase of 3,915 daily vehicle trips, including 366 vehicle trips during the PM peak hour. The Engineering Division of the City of Bremerton has determined that the proposal may result in significant impacts to the City's transportation system and that improvements to the transportation system will be e. DRAFT' 7" necessary to accommodate the development. Potential significant impacts associated with increased traffic generated by this development will be adequately mitigated through compliance with the traffic mitigation measures listed in the MITIGATION section of this Mitigated Determination. A preliminary Stormwater Management Plan was prepared by Pacific Land Design and presented for review on March 5, 2001. The Engineering Division of the City of Bremerton has determined that the proposal may result in significant impacts to the City's storm drainage system and that improvements to the storm drainage system will be necessary to accommodate the development. Pursuant to BMC 15.010.020 and 15.040.042, Bremerton Stormwater System Development and Construction Standards a storm drainage plan and subsequent installation of an approved stormwater management system on the project site is required. Potential significant impacts associated with increased storm water management responsibilities generated by this development will be adequately mitigated through compliance with the storm drainage mitigation measures listed in the MITIGATION section of this Mitigated Determination. 5. The grading and placement of fill material increase the likelihood of erosion and sedimentation. Pursuant to BMC, Chapter 21.12, Critical Lands Ordinance, a temporary erosion and sedimentation control plan utilizing Best Management Practices is required to be approved and implemented on the project site prior to and during site development. Potential significant adverse impacts associated with erosion and sedimentation are adequately mitigated through compliance with this regulation. 6. Review of the project's plan for the excavation, placement and grading of approximately 9,200 cubic yards of material indicates that the proposal could result in significant impacts to air quality by increasing the likelihood of fugitive dust. A Fugitive Dust Control Plan is required to be approved and implemented on the project site prior to and during site development. Potential significant impacts associated with air quality degradation as a result of fugitive dust will be adequately mitigated through compliance with the approved plan. 7. No regulated wetlands, streams and/or drainage courses have been identified on, or adjacent to, the project site pursuant to BMC, Chapter 21.22.110-120 — Wetlands and Stream Corridors, Critical Lands Ordinance. Through the course of the work, if regulated wetlands, streams and/or drainage courses are identified, potential significant adverse environmental impacts to the wetlands, streams and/or drainage courses will be adequately mitigated through compliance with this regulation. 8. No other state or federal candidate, threatened or endangered plant or animal species or habitat have been identified within the Plan's project sites. The proposal will have no significant adverse environmental impacts on animals, water, noise, environmental health, public services and utilities, and land use. 10. Potential significant impacts to groundwater quality resulting from the installation and use of underground fuel storage tanks will be adequately mitigated through compliance with the Uniform Fire Code and State underground storage tank regulations (WAC 173-360 and WAC 173-491). 11. No significant cultural/historical resources have been identified within the proposed project improvement site. If, however, during construction, any artifacts are uncovered, the Bremerton Building and Planning Department at (360) 478-5275, the Suquamish Tribe at (360) 394-524, and the State Historic Preservation Office in Olympia at (360) 753-4405, must be notified. CONCLUSIONS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIAL: The Responsible Official concludes that a Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) may be issued. This is based upon staff review of the environmental checklist and attachments, other information on file with the City of Bremerton and the above -noted findings. The MDNS is supported by plans, policies, and regulations adopted by the City of Bremerton for the exercise of substantive authority under SEPA. MITIGATION: The Responsible Official has determined that the proposal does not have a probable significant impact on the environment, and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c), only if the folkLu nn conditions are me t. This decision was made after review of a completed environmental checklist, other information on file with the City of Bremerton, and existing regulations. This information is available to the public on request. These mitigation measures are required as authorized under the Substantive Authority of SEPA in accordance with the guidelines contained in Chapter 21.12 of the Bremerton Municipal Code and shall be implemented by the Proponent. l Y , L DRAFT , 1. Traffic Mitigation: The Proponent will be required to participate in providing two left -tum lanes from southbound SR303 to eastbound Sheridan Road and eliminating the two-way left turn lane (and associated left turn from SR303 southbound to the North Access Road eastbound) as mitigation for their traffic impacts at such time that the City constructs this improvement (which is expected within the next 5-10 years as part of a larger capital project). The Proponent will be required to dedicate additional right-of-way (ROW) along SR303 and Sheridan Road and to financially contribute to the cost of associated improvements at the Sheridan Road/SR303 intersection at that time.

The Proponent will be required to enter into an agreement with the City regarding their contribution to this capital project prior to issuance of development permits. ROW intended for future dedication to the City (e.g., New Spruce Street Extension) will be constructed in accordance with the City's 2001 Standards. 1 -IA. Financing Requirements. The Proponent will utilize the following method for calculating the value of dedicated ROW and estimating the Applicant's fair share: Dedicated land needed for future projects (i.e. Sheridan/SR303 intersection improvements and Sheridan/New Spruce Street Ext. intersection improvements) will be determined on a per square foot basis from a certified appraisal done at the time of the improvements. If land is dedicated, tThe dedicated land value will be credited against the Proponent's proportionate share of each improvement. The Proponent's proportionate share of such improvements will be determined by a traffic study conducted by the City in the year proceeding start of construction on of the project. At the option of and for the convenience of the Proponent, the City will accept financial payment from the Proponent earlier than commencement of construction for either anticipated capital project. If such pre -payment is desired by the Proponent, the Proponent must agree in writing that it has reviewed the case law on Benchmark Land Company vs. City of Battle Ground (103 Wash. App. 721, 14 P. 3`d 172, December 2000) and acknowledges that such pre -payment is proportionate to the impact and within the nexus of the project. The amount of such pre -payment will be equivalent to the proportion of the Proponent's traffic impact (trips during the PM peak hour) as compared to the total traffic through the intersection times the cost of those improvements directly related to the Proponent's traffic. The proportion of the Proponent's traffic impact is estimated to be approximately 4.1% for the Sheridan and SR303 intersection (June 26, 2001 Gibson Traffic Consultants letter to Albertson). The estimated cost of construction for the future capital project soley for those components which are attributable to the Proponent's traffic (i.e. road widening, channelization, center barrier, new signal, curb gutter, and sidewalk) is $676,000 based on a Seattle ENR -CCI of 7600. The payment amount will be adjusted in accordance with the current Seattle ENR -CCI and/or an updated Engineering cost estimate, with the method to be determined by the City. The proportion of the Proponent's traffic impact is estimated to be approximately 30.5% for the Sheridan and New Spruce Street intersection (based on model output included in the May 26, 2001 GTC memorandum). The estimated cost of construction for project components attributable to the Proponent's traffic (i.e. new signal and pedestrian crossings) is $234,000 based on a Seattle ENR -CCI of 7600. The payment amount will be adjusted in accordance with the current Seattle ENR -CCI and/or an updated Engineering cost estimate, with the method to be determined by the City. DRAFT `" A 1-2. The Proponent will provide two left -turn lanes from westbound Sheridan Road to southbound SR303. The Proponent's inclusion of one left -tum only lane, one left -turn and though lane, and one right -turn only lane on westbound Sheridan is acceptable. The Proponent will need to modify the 5/29/01 site plan to accommodate the actual location of these lanes (see Item 1-4). The Proponent will pay for the cost of signal changes associated with the second left- turn lane from westbound Sheridan to southbound SR303 at this time only. See Item 1-1 for City's additional requirements associated with this intersection. 1-4. The Proponent will dedicate additional ROW to the City on Sheridan Road, to accommodate new turn lanes sufficient to maintain a bike path and sidewalk in addition to needed lane width. The total road width shall provide for 12 -foot outside lane width, 11 -foot wide inside lane width, 5 -foot wide bike path (on both sides), 6 -foot wide planter strip (both sides), and 5.5 - foot wide sidewalk (both sides) from the intersection with SR303 to the eastern boundary of the New Spruce Street Extension. The Proponent will need to modify the 5/29/01 site plan to accommodate this. The Proponent's inclusion of sidewalk, curb, gutter, bike lane, on the north side of Sheridan and curb and gutter only on the south side of Sheridan is acceptable. The Proponent will provide 80 -foot long right tum pockets plus taper into the gas station driveway and into the driveway at the new North Access Road. The pocket at the gas station will be located just north of a bulb -out that preserves the existing signal support. The Proponent will also widen the driveway approach width and turning radius to provide an 18 -foot ingress lane at the driveway into the new North Access Road. The Proponent will need to modify the 5/29/01 site plan to accommodate this. The Proponent will dedicate sufficient ROW contiguous to its property along SR303 and Sheridan Road to include the sidewalk and road sections. The Proponent will need to modify the 5/29/01 site plan to accommodate this. 1-8. The Proponent will provide street lighting adjacent to property along SR303 and Sheridan Road consistent with the City's Standards. The Proponent will contribute to intersection improvements at Sheridan and New Spruce Street Extention only in proportion to the Applicant's =traffic impact.

Storm Water Mitigation: 2-1. The Proponent will provide a vault for detention on-site: 2-2. The Proponent will either 1) limit out -flow to 1.5 cfs, 2) construct new dedicated storm sewer, or 3) conduct drainage basin modeling to insure storm water conveyance capacity usage will not detrimentally effect others in the basin. The Proponent will conduct a Level 2 basin modeling analysis during the design phase of this project. The City expects this quantitative evaluation to include the following level of detail: survey hydraulic control elevations from the upstream portion of Stevens Canyon through the site and upstream ends of the basin, define conveyance capacity (allowing no less than 1 -foot n of freeboard to daylight at all open points along pipe route), estimate out -flow quantities and extent of conveyance capacity 9 used, and estimate existing and future potential additional flow in the remainder of the drainage basin. 2-3. The Proponent will provide treatment of storm water run-off via a bio-swale or other equally performing best management practice (BMP) that is specifically recommended by the City's currently adopted Storm Water Manual for commercial parking lot applications. The Proponent will provide treatment via three separate bio-swales (gas station area, parking lot adjacent to SR303, setback adjacent to VFW property,) the 6 -month storm flow and to detain in below -grade vault additional flows in accordance with the City's Standards. In consideration of Item 1-1 and the associated need for ROW, the City will accept a below -grade storm water treatment system that has been demonstrated to perform equal to or better than bio-swales, subject to an approved monitoring and maintenance program to be carried out by the Applicant. This Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance (MDNS) is issued under 197-11-340(2). The lead agency will not act on this proposal for 15 days from the date of issue.

The City expects this quantitative evaluation to include the following level of detail sun••ey hydraulic control elevations from the upstream portion of Stevens Canyon through the site and upstream ends of the basin, define conveyance capacity (allowing no less than 1 -foot of freeboard to daylight at all open points along pipe route), estimate out -flow quantities and extent of conveyance capacity_ used, and estimate existing and future potential additional flow in the remainder of the drainage basin. 2-3. The Proponent will provide treatment of storin water run-off via a bio-swale or other equally performing best management practice (BMP) that is specifically recommended by the City's currently adopted Storm Water Manual for commercial parking lot applications. The Proponent will provide treatment via three separate bio-swales (gas station area, parking lot adjacent to SR3033. setback adjacent to VFW property,) the 6 -month storm flow and to detain in below -grade vault additional flows in accordance with the City's Standards. In consideration of Item 1-1 and the associated need for ROW, the City N% -Ill accept a below -grade storm water treatment systein that has been demonstrated to perform equal to or better than bio- swales, subject to an approved monitoring and maintenance program to be carried out by the Applicant.
