File No.
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) requires all governmental agencies to consider
the environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. The purpose of this
checklist is to provide information to help identify impacts from your proposal, to reduce or
avoid impacts from the proposal if it can be done, and to help the City decide whether an
EIS is required. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be prepared for any
proposal with probable significant adverse impacts on environmental quality.
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your
proposal. The City will use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of
your proposal are significant and require preparation of an EIS. You must answer each
question accurately, carefully and to the best of your knowledge. Answer the questions
briefly, but give the best description you can. In most cases, you should be able to answer
the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need for experts. If
you do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not
know" or "does not apply". Complete answers to the questions now may avoid delays later.
If the space provided is too small, feel free to attach additional sheets.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and
landmark designations. Answer these questions if you can. If you have problems, the city
staff can assist you.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal even if you plan to do them over
a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will
help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. You may be asked to explain
your answers or provide additional information for determining if there may be significant
adverse impacts.
Nonproject Proposals Only:
Complete both the checklist (even though many questions may be answered "does not
apply") and the Supplemental Sheet for Nonproject Actions (part D). For nonproject
actions, the references in the checklist to the words "project," "applicant," and "property or
site" should be read as "proposal," "proposer," and "affected geographic area,"
respectively.

services are anticipated to be required as part of the proposed project.
2) Proposed measures to reduce or control environmental health hazards, if any:
● All potentially hazardous materials used during construction would be handled and
stored in accordance with state and federal hazardous materials handling
requirements. If contaminated soil or groundwater are encountered during
construction, a formal plan would be developed consistent with state and federal
regulations for their removal and treatment or disposal. Also, if contaminants are
encountered, measures would be implemented to minimize exposure to people in
accordance with applicable regulations.
b. Noise
1) What types of noise exist in the area which may affect your project (for example:
traffic, equipment operation, other)?
● Sources of ambient noise at the site are related primarily to automobile and
