SUBJECT: 900 King Street Redevelopment
Preliminary Draft Environmental Impact Statement (pDEIS)
Completeness Review
DATE: September 7, 2018
With regard to the above mentioned project, this office has received and reviewed the
following for completeness only at this time:
1. Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), various revised sections emailed
by AKRF, Inc., 9/6/2018;
2. Memorandum from JMC Engineering in response to the 8/10/2018 memorandum
from Dolph Rotfeld Engineering, P.C., dated 9/6/2018
Our remaining comments are as follows:
1. Engineering responses are complete with the exception of the requirement to
provide "an analysis of the capacity available while firefighting is occurring in the
vicinity". As noted previously, this is a requirement under section 11.2.3 of the
Scoping Outline. The JMC memo states that they have been in contact with
SUEZ and that an analysis is forthcoming and that in the event available capacity
is not sufficient, the project would be modified to incorporate water storage
and/or pumps to provide needed fire flows. Should the Board of Trustees decide
that this is a sufficient response at this time, we would recommend that this
information be provided no later than at the time of the Final EIS submission.
Substantive technical comments with regard to the DEIS and Site Plan will be
completed once the DEIS is accepted by the Lead Agency.
Thank You
