Since Washington state privatized the sale of hard liquor in 2012, small speciality shops have su� ered, with

many going out of business altogether. Allen and Janet Bechtel of Sammamish, who own World of Wines, a small wine shop in Red-mond, say that if something doesn’t change in the speciality beer and wine industry, they too will be forced to close their doors.

“Corporate America and high-paid lob-byists put a lot of pressure on our elected representatives,” Janet said. “But if there’s one time when small, family-owned business owners need our representatives to work for us, this is it.”

Since the Costco initiative two years ago, corporate America has taken over the liquor industry, Janet said.

“Prices have gone up, public safety has gone down, and small, family-owned busi-nesses like ours have gone out of business,” she said.

What many people didn’t realize about Initiative 1183, the couple said, is it would, “Require that a retail store must have 10,000 square feet or more of fully enclosed retail space within a single structure in order to get a license to sell liquor.” � e goal was to keep hard liquor out of neighborhood convenience stores.

With the implementation of Initiative 1183, World of Wines, which is approximate-ly 8,000 square feet, is unable to sell liquor, and when customers can one-stop-shop for

hard alcohol and wine at their neighbor-hood grocery store, the small speciality shops become less appealing.

“Everybody completely forgot that there are small, footprint stores like us, that that’s all we sell,” Janet said. “We don’t have prob-lems with teenagers coming in here trying to buy things with a fake I.D.”

Janet said that it’s no secret that issues involving alcohol the� are happening in the grocery stores, and not in small speciality shops like their own.

“It’s a huge problem,” she said. “Whereas stores like us would not have had a problem.”

Allen said they have stayed a� oat be-cause they carry di� erent products than the grocery stores, such as small production wineries that larger businesses refuse to or

cannot carry. “I taste about 200 to 300 wines a week,”

BY KELLY MONTGOMERYISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

� e Sammamish City Council got an update on the status of the Big Rock Park master plan during its study session March 11. � e park project was started in January 2012 with the goal of creating a park that is inviting to the entire community, enhancing, protecting and celebrating natural system, provide outdoor opportunities for environmental and heritage education and allowing for a phased construction plan to work within the city’s budgetary realities.

Sammamish Parks Director Jessi Bon told councilmembers the current considerations include the proximity of the park to neighbors, sensitive areas of the park and issues with trail systems.

At “Site A,” Bon said, they are proposing parking on the street for 30-40 cars with the hopes of putting in six to eight additional spots. However the current grading will require paving, which will be pricey. At this site there will be a cov-ered gathering/education circle for school groups.

Council members asked if there could be a � replace in the middle of this area, and Bon said she would look into it. In the site proposal there also will be an elevated boardwalk that will be ADA accessible, an extremely uncommon trait for these types of pathways. Site A also will include informal picnic areas, observation decks, and the renovation of both a house and barn. Bon said that the trail system will have to be pulled o� property lines as well.

Bon said that “Site B” is trickier: it is much harder to get to, has less parking, and the trail system is harder to orchestrate due to property lines. � e city hopes to keep Site B as natural as possible. Bon said there are natural � owing waterfalls, depending on the time of the year, and lots of wildlife. � e city would like to build a bird blind, a structure that people can step into and see the birds without being seen. � ey also would like to add a boardwalk and habitat restoration to pro-vide environmental education opportunities. On Site B, there is the Reard House, which has been improved and renovated through volunteer work and grants, a historic sauna, which the city hopes to reconstruct into restrooms, and the Tanner

House, which is privately owned at this time. � ere is also an old garage that may be used as a storage/maintenance facility.

City o� cials estimate that Site A will cost $2.67 million for design and construction and then an additional $1.12 million for maintenance. Site B is estimated to cost $1.4 million for design and construction, with an additional $273,000 for maintenance. � is means that the total cost estimate for the alternative Big Rock Park plan would be approximately $4 million to design and construct and then and approximately $385,000 to maintain,

Council member Nancy Whitten said she would like to see a playground at the entrance of either site to ful� ll the broader needs of community members. Other council mem-bers expressed serious consideration in installing a zip-line. Bon said she would look into both of these additions.

� e coming months will include the adoption of a park plan (April 2014), the beginning of phase one design (May 2014), and then the hopes of beginning construction next spring (Spring 2015).

Gerend elected treasurer of SCASammamish Councilmember Don Gerend has been

elected treasurer of the Sound City Association (SCA). “SCA creates opportunities for me to better serve Sam-

mamish residents and to create results that improve our entire region,” said Gerend, who is one of four SCA board o�cers.

Gerend said SCA, which represents 36 cities in King County, provides a voice for King County cities under 150,000 people in areas such as economic and community development, transportation, land use, health, government operations, the environment, education, public safety, social welfare and other public policy issues.

Gerend has lived on Pine Lake since 1979. He serves on a variety of regional boards including the

Puget Sound Regional Council Transportation Policy Board; Association of Washington Cities Board of Directors; Mu-nicipal Research Council Board; and, the National League of Cities Information Technology and Communications Steer-ing Committee.

Issaquah boosts land use permit fees�e city of Issaquah is raising its land use and engineering

permit fees to fully recover costs to review permits.�e city will create a citywide fee schedule, rather than

use a variety of fee schedules, including time and materials billing. It also will o�er customers more �at rates and less

itemized fees, be more consistent with fees charged in neigh-boring cities and update fees that have not been signi�cantly evaluated or increased since 2006.

Issued permits with fees already paid will not change nor will building permit fees.

Under the new fee structure, applicants will not pay full-cost recovery for small business exterior improvements, homeowner’s construction and home businesses, early collaboration steps in the permit process, code �exibility, ap-peals, or for a�ordable housing.

To see all of the changes in fee structure visit issaquahwa.gov/feeupdate.

Greenway designation gains speed�e campaign to have the U.S. Congress designate the

Mountains to Sound Greenway as a National Heritage Area reached a milestone in late January with over 1,000 people signing a petition for the designation.

�e legislation was introduced in the House by Rep. Dave Reichert in 2013, and the Greenway Trust is actively working with Sen. Maria Cantwell’s sta� to have a bill introduced in the U.S. Senate.

�e national designation will provide the recognition and resources needed to increase the visibility of the Greenway and conserve the landscape for future generations. National Heritage Areas are places where natural, cultural, and historic resources combine to tell an important story of the nation’s heritage.

�ere is strong bipartisan support for the designation, from the Kittitas County Commissioners and King County Council, to Gov. Jay Inslee and Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark. �e Rural Majority, a coalition fo-cused on protecting rural lands and lifestyles in King County, recently signed on.

Around TownWhat’s happening in Issaquah and Sammamish

we don’t sell the same products, what is another year going to do?” she said. “�ey’re saying that they made these investments in the liquor stores, well we made an investment in our store. So how come their investment is more

important than our investment?” Janet said that stores like theirs were

not considered in the process of Initia-tive 1183, and now there is �nally a bill that would help them provide more of a variety, and yet again they were tossed to the sideline.

“Nobody is looking out for us,” Janet said. “If we don’t make it, then the small wineries in eastern Washington

in Oregon, and the small distilleries in Washington and Oregon won’t have an outlet to sell their product, and it will �ow downstream. Eventually they won’t be able to be in business,” she said. “It’s hurting the industry as a whole in the state.”

Water samples at more than 80 public beaches in the Puget Sound region show fecal coliform bacteria levels that exceed levels considered to

be safe. Harmful bacteria pollute � sh, shell� sh, and other food harvested from our waters. � ey make our beaches inaccessible for recreational use.

Federal, tribal, state and local governments are working to identify and correct pollution sources that harm our waters and marine life. Creosoted pilings are being removed. Changes in agricultural practices are keeping ag waste from streams.

But there is another pollution source – a big one – that hasn’t been addressed until now: sewage from boats and ships.

Under current federal regulations, treated sewage may be discharged from a ship or boat anywhere in Puget

Sound, and untreated sewage may be discharged as long as the boat is more than three miles from shore. (Marine sanitation devices that grind up waste and add disinfectant before discharging into marine waters are considered treat-ment, but these systems do not meet state standards for protecting water quality and public health, according to the Department of Ecology).

Ecology, the Department of Health and the Puget Sound Partnership have dra� ed a proposal to make Puget Sound a No Discharge Zone and are submitting it as a dra� petition to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

If established, all boats – whether a cruise ship, freighter or pleasure cra� – would have to store their sewage until they could safely dispose of it at an onshore or mobile pump-out facility, or hold it until it can be discharged in the open ocean beyond three miles from shore.

� e proposed zone extends from Puget Sound, includ-ing Lake Union and Lake Washington, north to the 49th parallel, including the San Juan Islands, and west to New Dungeness Lighthouse.

� e No Discharge Zone proposal would require a change in practices by those on the water, but it’s a change from which we, and future generations, will bene� t.

QUOTE

OF NOTE

No one could be happier to see state lawmakers wrap up and head home than Gov. Jay

Inslee.� ey departed a week ago and won’t

return until January 2015.� at gives the rookie Democratic

governor nine-plus months to get some work done without interruption or interference from those who’ve foiled him repeatedly since he arrived in Olympia.

Inslee is still get-ting the hang of the

give-and-take of the legislative process a� er two sessions.

Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate are beginning to accept the congressman-turned-gov-ernor is a product of his past political life in Washington, D.C. � ey’ve come to expect he’ll rail on Republicans when he considers them obstructing his path and cast no unkind words at Democrats when they thwart his wishes.

As a result, his in� uence this session

seemed muted on the most talked-about policy disputes like transporta-tion, medical marijuana and revising the teacher evaluation system to secure a federal education waiver.

Several lawmakers wrangling on the waiver matter shrugged at learn-ing two days before the end of the legislative session, Inslee traveled to Snohomish County to conduct his own closed-door talks on education — with second-graders.

Such an attitude underscores why Inslee is looking forward to not having lawmakers around for a few months. Ditto for his advisers who hope to capitalize on this opportunity to ad-vance a mostly-stalled political agenda and leave his imprint on the state.

To accomplish this, there is an expectation Inslee will rely on every available instrument of power and exercise every available ounce of au-thority allotted governors through the state constitution.

He demonstrated a willingness to push the bounds in February when he declared a moratorium on use of the death penalty in Washington, putting an end to executions for at least as long as he holds o� ce.

In the coming months, it is antici-pated he will issue a variety of execu-tive orders to undertake new policies, practices and initiatives outside the reach of legislators.

Already this year he’s signed noncontroversial ones creating a task force to boost the outdoor recreation industry and increasing the number of state employees working � exible hours and telecommuting.

His critics are nervous the governor might use the powers of his o� ce to do something on much bigger issues like raise the minimum wage for workers paid under state contracts or require state agencies to only purchase fuel with less carbon in it.

Whether Inslee could make such moves or do anything close isn’t clear.

He’s got nine-and-a-half months to explore the possibilities and many of his political opponents couldn’t be less happy about it.

The BlotterPolice reports from Issaquah and Sammamish BY KELLY MONTGOMERY

ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Sammamish residents experienced a very special musical experience Tuesday night when the Krishnaswa-mi-Salman duo visited Sammamish Presbyterian Church for their � � h time, performing a blend of French and German musical pieces.

� e concert, presented by the Sam-mamish Arts Commission and co-sponsored by the city and 4Culture, featured Rajan Krishnaswami on cello and Mark Salman on piano.

� e Simple Measures concert � rst featured French music, including a playful sonata by Francis Poulenc which was reminiscent of French cabaret music combined with Ameri-can jazz in� uences. � e second half consisted of German composer Rich-ard Strauss' early work, portraying youthful exuberance and enthusiasm in the style of the late 19th century Romantic period.

Krishnaswami and Salman have

been making music together for more than 20 years and have played togeth-er both nationally and internationally. � ey are originally from Connecticut and attended Juilliard.

Daphne Robinson, Sammamish

Arts Commissioner, said they had twice as many people in attendance compared to last year's event.

� e award was presented by Amara on March 3. Amara (formerly Medina Children's Services), is a Seattle-based nonpro� t o� ering domestic adoption, foster care and all-options pregnancy counseling services,

� e Stella Mae Carmichael award honors families who open their hearts and homes in exceptionally kind and self-less ways to children in foster care.

� e Madisons adopted children as a way to grow their own family. � ey then went beyond that to care for 76

more children in need. Because their own children were a few weeks old before they could take them home, Karen knew this meant that someone else had cared for them, had held them, and had loved them for weeks before she could be their mom.

"I wanted my kids to know that there wasn’t a minute that went by when someone didn’t love them," Karen said, adding that foster care was a way to pay-it-forward.

� e couple now reside in Redmond.

� e city of Issaquah has signed o� on a permit to remodel the vacant 49,516 square-foot former Albertsons building at 5530 East Lake Sam-mamish Parkway into a two-tenant building, with Value Village being the primary tenant.

� e building has been vacant for almost � ve years, with the exception of the Spirit Halloween Store occupy-ing it during Halloween season.

Savers/Value Village, based in Bellevue, touts it’s business model as “one of the largest recyclers of used goods in the world, saving more than 600 million pounds of quality mer-chandise from land� lls each year."

� e building is managed by Mer-lone Geier Partners, a private real estate investment company focused

on the acquisition, development and redevelopment of retail and retail-driven mixed-use properties on the West Coast according to its web site. Its main o� ces are in San Francisco and San Diego.

Jason Rogers, associate planner for

the city, said at this point he knows of no other tenant for the building. Value Village will occupy approximately three-� � hs of the space.

Rogers said the applicant, DDG Architects, has not picked up the permit yet.

External improvements to the building will include canopy reductions and additions, new storefronts and repainting. ISSAQUAH REPORTER, FILE PHOTO.

Eastside Catholic School debuted "Guys and Dolls" last night at the Lyceum � eatre in Skyline High School, with shows run-ning through Sunday.

"Guys and Dolls" premiered on Broad-way in 1950 and ran for more than 1,200 performances before winning a Tony Award for Best Musical. In 1955, it was made into a movie starring Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons, Frank Sinatra and Vivian Blaine. � e broadway play is an adaptation of Damon Runyon's short stories, featur-ing singing and dancing gangsters and gamblers, with some romance involved of course.

Stephanie Wol� , an Eastside junior, takes center stage as Miss Adelaide.

"I'm really excited that we got this group of people together and formed this family," she said. "We're going out there and using all of our talent to make this art up on stage."

When auditioning, Wol� was asked to do the "Adelaide voice". Unfamiliar with the Adelaide character and the play in general, Wol� made something up and ended up with her � rst lead role.

"I'm very nervous," she said. "I've always kind of been in the background."

Wol� said that for the past couple of weeks, the "Guys and Dolls" cast has been practicing until 8 or 9 p.m., and before ev-ery performance, the cast joins together for a group prayer and shake-down to relieve stress, calm nerves and get them ready for the stage.

Evan Welsh, an Eastside junior, plays one

of the lead males as Nathan Detroit. "It's a lot of work,” he said. “But it's really

rewarding. We've got such a great cast...and we’ve put a lot of work into this play. It came out really well.”

Welsh said the drama program at East-side Catholic struggles with space -- the "Guys and Dolls" cast had to rehearse in a classroom before being moved up to the wrestling room, then the school gym, and then � nally the Lyceum � eater at Skyline a week before performances.

"It's a big adjustment and we have to make it really fast…and we’ve done that, which makes it really great and really fun," he said.

Tom Taylor, Eastside Catholic’s drama

teacher and director of “Guys and Dolls,” said this is his � rst show at the school.

“I am most looking forward to when the students are � nally able to share all of their hard work with the audience. To see everything � nally click together and to ob-serve the student’s reaction to that is truly

rewarding for me,” he said.Eastside Catholic will present "Guys and

Dolls" at 7 p.m. March 21-22 and 6 p.m. March 23. Tickets are $10 for general ad-mission and $8 for students with their ASB card. Skyline is located at 1122 228th Ave. S.E., Sammamish.

BY JOSH SUMANISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Spring sports are underway around Issaquah and Sammamish, with a host of teams and individuals looking to make a run at a state championship in 2014.

� e Reporter takes a look at some of the key questions as the season begins.

Who survives to postseason on baseball diamond?

Issaquah, Eastlake and Eastside Catholic picked up season opening wins in non-conference games, and each is looking to take the next step in the postseason a� er disappointing � nishes to 2013.

� e Eagles were a game away from another trip to the 4A state tournament before falling to Cascade (Everett) in the KingCo-Wesco crossover game, while Eastside Catholic thought it had another 3A state trip locked up before instead being felled by the rulebook.

Skyline, which dropped its � rst game this year 3-2 to EC, was the regular season divi-sion champion last year before faltering in the conference tournament and missing out on a trip to state.

Can golfers claim individual, state championships?

� e Wolves return plenty of depth on the girls side, a� er a deep postseason run last year, including a third place � nish at state. Eastlake ended 2013 only a point out of third, as Ashley Fitzgibbons ended the meet in a tie for seventh place.

Maddie Nelson, a sophomore, shot a three under-par 33 to begin this season for the Wolves in a lopsided win over Gar� eld, while senior Jamie Midki� gives Eastlake another viable state championship threat.

Eastlake took the team scoring champi-

onship on the boys side, behind a second place � nish from departed senior Li Wang and eighth place score from Spencer Weiss.

Does anyone return to Sparks? No team from the area made it to Puyal-

lup and Sparks Stadium for the semi� nals of the state soccer tournament in 2013, as only Skyline reached the � eld of 16.

� e Spartans fell to Puyallup in the � rst round and have lost their past two state tournament games since beating Eastlake

for the 2011 4A state title.

Any challengers to boys lacrosse throne?

Bellevue has taken the past two boys Di-vision I lacrosse state titles, and has another squad led by future collegiate talent as it goes for a three-peat this spring.

Eastlake took its shot last year in the � rst round, falling to the Wolverines in the opening round of the playo� s, while Eastside Catholic has seen each of its last

two seasons end against Bellevue. Colin MacIlvennie, an All-American

and Maryland commit, gives the Crusad-ers a top-shelf threat, and Ross Komenda is another returning player with a decorated history and o� ensive potency.

Issaquah � nished the 2013 regular sea-son 10-4 and at the top of the conference standings, earning a bye in the � rst round of the playo� s.

But a 6-5 defeat to Mercer Island pre-maturely ended the season for a program looking for its � rst title game appearance since 2009.

Skyline and Eastlake made it four playo� teams from the area in boys lacrosse last year, as the Spartans fell to King’s Way in the � rst round and Eastlake beat Curtis before losing to Bellevue.

What do Skyline, Issaquah runners do on � nal lap?

Keegan Symmes is gone a� er a host of state placings last season, as is sixth place javelin thrower Garett Corlis.

Kansas commit Dorie Dalzell, who was fourth in the girls 400 meters last year, will lead the way for the Spartans along with fellow returning state competitors Alexis Daugherty and Samantha Krahling.

Senior Gabrielle Gevers takes her � nal run as a prep a� er a sixth place � nish in the 100 meter dash at the 2013 state track and � eld meet.

� e Eagles girls should also be a threat for a state title in the relays, as they lose only Grace Englund from their 800 and 1,600 meter relay squads.

Amanda Chalfant, Gevers, Juliana da Cruz, Mack Wieburg, Cayla Seligman, Alia Sugarman and Colette Lerkantitham were part of last year’s state contingent.

Troy Lewis is the lone returning state competitor for Eastlake on the boys side, a� er � nishing � � h in the 200 meters last season.

Ellie Woerner will try and better her fun-ner up � nish in the 100 hurdles and eighth place � nish in the 300 meter hurdles as a junior this year.

Woerner and � ve others will return from last year’s sixth place 800 meter relay team, as well.

(Le� to right) Former Eastlake players Dylan Jessum, Tanner Clinch and Patrick Keogh, along with Lee’s son Turner, and wife, Lisa. COURTESY PHOTO.

BY JOSH SUMANISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

For the past two seasons, Eastside Catholic’s volleyball team has turned one of its games into a recogni-tion of coach Angie McKinnell’s � ght with cancer, raising funds and awareness for the disease by playing a game dedicated to the No One Fights Alone campaign for cancer research.

On March 15, the goodwill extended to the lacrosse � eld.

� e Crusaders, which reached the Division I state semi � nals last year in boys Division I lacrosse, hosted 2013 playo� team and Sammamish neighbor Eastlake at Charlie Acosta Field in the season opener for both teams, and with much more than a 1-0 record on the line.

Before the season began, EC cap-tains approached new head coach Gordon MacIlvennie and school administration about hosting a No One Fights Alone game, similar to what has happened on the volley-ball court the past two years. � e motto is part of the Choose Hope movement, which supports cancer research and provides various av-enues to support for those � ghting the disease.

Many lacrosse players have been avid supporters as the school’s vol-leyball coach has battled cancer, and

with a classmate recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer, they saw the opportunity to once again stand with one of their own through a di� cult time.

“We were all-in,” MacIlvennie said. “It’s an awesome concept and great the boys took it upon them-selves to follow and support their fellow classmate.”

For Eastlake, the cause is also close to home.

Chuck Lee, a former head coach

and assistant with the high school program, passed in February a� er his own battle with cancer, and a� er a career as a teacher and coach in the area.

Saturday, his legacy was present at the game through former Wolves’ players, as well as Lee’s son and wife. � e event included a presentation to the Lee family, as well as a releasing of balloons in his memory.

“It’s a great opportunity,” Eastlake coach Chris O’Dougherty said

before the game. “He was a jolly guy, and all the guys learned passion for lacrosse and passion for life from him.”

For Tom Keogh, who became junior varsity head coach, Lee was a colleague, mentor and friend.

Despite a lack of playing experi-ence in lacrosse during his own youth, and his only coaching experi-ence coming in the Wolves’ junior program, Keogh said Lee called him, “out of the blue,” about han-dling the high school’s JV program.

“He told me it was just like basketball,” Keogh recalled. “He was such a class act, and always had the big picture in mind.”

� e initial season in the prep ranks was anything but easy for the � rst time high school coach, and Keogh recalled one time in par-ticular when Lee’s perspective as a longtime educator and leader played an invaluable role.

“I con� ded in Chuck that it wasn’t working out; I couldn’t get consis-tent control of this crazy group,” Keogh said. “He just looked at me and said, ‘� at’s what high school kids are.’ He talked me o� the ledge.”

When it came to the game, East-lake and Eastside Catholic’s current coaches said spirited competition would be the most � tting way to honor the memories and struggles of those battling cancer, including

Lee.“� ey are always special games,

and hard fought,” MacIlvennie said of contests between the three Sam-mamish schools. “It just means so much to the players, coaching sta� s and each school to start one of many No One Fights Alone events on the Plateau.”

O’Dougherty said his players approached him last year about hav-ing Lee on the sidelines for a game, something he quickly found carried meaning beyond the white lines of the � eld.

“He was motivation for all of us,” O’Dougherty said. “You never would have known he had cancer. He carried himself above it all, and he was a true inspiration for our players.”

� e pregame festivities included a barbecue, which raised a total of $1,700 for Seattle Children’s Hospital and the American Cancer Society. More importantly, it gave players and families in both programs a chance to remember the resolve and sel� essness of those around them.

“He always showed up, was always at practice,” Keogh said of Lee, adding he would bring a stool to sit on as his strength deteriorated. “None of them (Eastlake players) knew him not battling.”

The Newest Bank InTown Has A Very Familiar

Look To It.

Whidbey Island BankPub: Issaquah & Sammamish RepoterAd: Familiar LookLive: 6.5” x 9.5”Trim: N/ADate: 3/10/14

When Bob Ittes was asked to open a Whidbey Island Bank branch in Issaquah, he knew exactly who should help him run it. He’d worked closely with Carmen, Charlotte and Julie for decades. Melodee, Jaclyn and Dorothy were also obvious choices to round out the crew, as each had extensive experience with other banks in Issaquah and the surrounding communities.

What made it an even better fit for the bank and the new staff was the common belief that a successful community bank is based on the support of local people and businesses.

With everyone back together again, this team is poised to become the bank for the eastside of the eastside.

So if you’ve ever had the pleasure of working with any one of these folks, you might want to stop by and get caught up. Because in today’s ever-changing world, a familiar face can make all the difference.

Murray Franklin, 14410 Bel- Red Road, Bellevue, WA 98007, is seeking coverage under the Washington State Department of Ecology’s Construction Storm- water NPDES and State Waste Discharge General Permit. The proposed project, Reese’s Run is located at SE 3rd Pl and 218th Ave SE in Sammamish in King County. This project involves 4.6 acres of soil disturbance for res- idential construction activities. Proposed development of the property will include the demoli- tion of all structures on the prop- erty and construction of 22 single-family homes along with associated roadway, utilities, open space, and a stormwater detention/water quality facility. Stormwater will be discharged to the existing storm drain system in 218th Ave SE before discharg- ing to a an Unnamed Stream east of 218th Ave SE and north of SE 4th St. Any persons desiring to present their views to the Washington State Department of Ecology regarding this application, or in- terested in Ecology’s action on this application, may notify Ecol- ogy in writing no later than 30 days of the last date of publica- tion of this notice. Ecology re- views public comments and con-

siders whether discharges from this project would cause a mea- surable change in receiving water quality, and, if so, whether the project is necessary and in the overriding public interest accord- ing to Tier II antidegradation re- quirements under WAC 173-201A-320.Comments can be submitted to:Department of EcologyAttn: Water Quality Program, Construction StormwaterP.O.
