1 Sartori Elementary School SEPA Notice of Consultation Comment Period 8/24/2016 9/30/2016 Comments and Responses # Topic Comment Response Commenter and date 1 Background The building size is listed at 76,000 SF but the land use application identifies the buildings as being 79,000 SF. The correct building size is 79,000 SF and this is reflected on the updated SEPA Checklist. City of Renton 9/30/2016 Responder and date 10/10/16 2 Earth There was a sink hole which opened on the east side of the street and went under the pavement under the street to the west side of the street and reappeared several years later. The City filled the hole each time, but there is currently a visible dip in the pavement all across the road where this is located as well as fissures in the road which is across the road in front of 310 Garden AVE N. It was believed this originally was caused by water left underground after a break in the Seattle water main which happened about 15 years ago. 3 There is a history of instability in the soil in neighborhood yards. The soi which was previously part of Lake Washington and the Black River, is constantly shifting. During the Sartori Grant project, the North Renton Neighborhood Association (NRNA) added soil in order to raise the beds along the south fence of the Sartori school front field by about a foot before planting trees. So much soil had eroded or shifted away that the base of the fence posts were showing. NRNA distributed two truck loads of soil, 30 yards of top soil, in front of the fence on the south end of the front of the school, as well as 150 bags of mulch because so much soil had eroded away. I suggest that additional measures be taken to determine the stability of the soil on the site, as well as at the sink hole site where construction vehicles and school buses will be driving regularly, and action be Comment noted. The referenced sinkhole and water line is on City property. The City's Public Works Department is responsible for maintenance of city roadways. See response to comment #3, below. The Geotechnical Report prepared by AESI dated August 4, 2016 details the methods and findings of the evalution of onsite subsurface conditions, which were performed in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineering and engineering geology practices. The analysis included drilling eight test borings and performing geologic studies to assess the type, thickness, distribution, and physical properties of the subsurface sediments and ground water conditions. The report offers geologic hazard mitigation and development recommendations based on the findings. These include a recommendation that the new building be constructed on pile foundations as well as other design and pavement recommendations. The report acknowledges that there may be variations between the field explorations that may not become fully evident until construction. The geotechnical engineer will be involved in reviewing final design plans and provide construction monitoring as needed.,, N. Monahan 9/4/16 10/10/16 10/10/16 1 P a g e

2 taken as needed. 4 Will the project be addressing the sinkhole which has the neighbors concerned for the safety of the children and the further examination into the geological stability of the ground near thereto. 5 Plants Is there a plan in place for what will happen to the plants? 6 Can RSD incorporate any of those landmark trees into the school design build so that children growing up in the city still have the opportunity to appreciate nature in various stages? 7 Energy and Natural Resources 8 Environmental Health (Noise) Recommends that solar panels as well as other green energy and conservation methods be included. Recommends the new school follow in the footsteps of SLC with an emphasis on sustainable strategies and design. I ask that you note, there is an abundance of noise in the area due to Boeing engine tests, airplanes from the Renton Airport (flying directly over Garden AVE), Helicopters also from the Renton Airport, Emergency vehicles using Park & N 3rd regularly, and trains traveling to Boeing using their whistles at local intersections. 9 False statement in SEPA Checklist that speeds are 20 mph. See response to comments #2 and #3, above. Yes, we are keeping some of the trees on the site. We will soon place barriers around those trees as the contractors begin the work to raze the old Sartori building. The District has provided an opportunity for the community to remove plants that will be surplused. The arborist did not identify any "landmark" trees onsite or within the adjacent City right of way. RSD, in consultation with City staff, has recently modified the site design to be able to keep one additional tree located on Garden Ave N. This is in addition to the nine trees located in City right of way that will be retained. High performance building strategies are in place such as: - High performance glazing and exterior solar control. - High performance building envelope assemblies at walls and roof. - All light fixtures will be high efficiency LED with occupancy and daylighting controls. - High efficiency hydronic induction mechanical system with heat recovery units at fresh air intake. - The building is being designed to be solar ready. RSD appreciates the additional information and has incorporated it into the Final SEPA Checklist. RSD acknowledges that the current speeds in the vicinity range from mph. Reference to current travel speeds has been removed from the Noise section of the final SEPA Checklist. Travel speeds are reflected correctly in the Transportation Technical Report. It is anticipated that a school zone with 20 mph limits will be implemented around the site as part of the project. D Dobson Diane Dobson Dobson 10/10/16 Integrus 10/10/16 Integrus LK LK 2 P a g e

3 10 Construction noise will have a big impact; more measures should be taken to lessen it. 11 Although City ordinance allows work to begin at 7 AM, due to the close proximity to residences (directly across the street on Park Ave N and on Garden Ave N), these hours of operation should be adjusted. I request a delay of work to begin at 8 AM during the weekdays. This delay should be in place at least for the loud equipment such as pile drivers. 12 The play area will have a great impact of long term noise created by this project if placed in the location shown in the latest renderings. This noise will occur in the same location that the school buses will be coming through on Garden Ave North. It is too much noise to be placed in one location on the block. I request that this covered play area be placed further in towards the middle of the block. Provide a landscape buffer as required by the City of Renton between the ball wall and the street. Additionally, keeping this further away from the street prevents criminal activity from occurring in this location. 13 I suggest considering adjusting the playground to an area of less audible impact to neighbors - like on the Park Avenue side where traffic will die down the Construction noise is regulated by the City's noise ordinance and limited in duration. A haul route control plan will be developed by the General Contractor, after the project has been executed, and will be reviewed and approved by the City of Renton prior to the start of construction. Preliminary estimates are that the earthwork would generate about 165 truckloads (165 trucks in and 165 trucks out) primarily during two periods at the beginning and end of the project. Assuming the trips are condensed to about two months each, this would correspond to about eight truck trips per day (four in, four out) and one or fewer truck trips per hour on a typical eight-hour work day. This volume of truck traffic may be noticeable to the residents living adjacent to the site, but it is not expected to result in significant impacts to traffic operations in the site vicinity. We will ask the contractors to do their best, but City law allows construction to start at 7:00 am, and this is what our contracts are written to. City law also prevents truck hauling before 8:30 am, so large trucks will not be entering or leaving the site before this time. The play area is purposely located adjacent to the existing residences on Garden Ave N so that lower scale elements are near residences and the school building is oriented in anticipation of future growth of a civic boulevard along Park Ave N, a commercial arterial street. Additionally, the field location orients the more open/green areas of the school near the residences and provides easy access for resident use. Recent design changes have shifted the covered play area an additional 14 feet further west, away from the adjacent residential properties and expanded the adjacent landscaping buffer. Some attenuation of the noise associated with children at play will be provided by the landscape buffer between the playfield and the roadway. See response to comment #12, above.,, 9/29/16 D. Dobson LK M Feldmeyer 3 P a g e

4 14 Land and Shoreline Use noise of the children. This will also adjust the continue noise impact to neighbors in the same area as the playground is near where the buses are dropping off and there will likely be high traffic noise. The City s COR mapping database shows the subject property is within a High Seismic area. We request that this Critical Area be noted in the SEPA Checklist. 15 Aesthetics Consideration should be given to the appearance of the back side of the building which will be along Park Ave N., which in the design plans appears to be a brick wall with some windows. I suggest the design include art work in the form of patterns in the brick, a mural, a community project, or some other visually pleasing appearance to the back side of the building. 16 Recreation Can a portion of the play field be left open during construction for public/neighborhood use? The SEPA Checklist has been updated to reflect that the property is within a High Seismic area. The building design submitted to the City with the land use application indicates building façades are articulated vertically between the ground floor and upper floors. Upper floors are articulated with wide recessed areas and material transitions. Areas of glazing respond to educational program areas in the building and are further articulated through the use of vertical fin sunshades. An architectural feature or graphic is likely to be incorporated but is not determined at this time. The building design is required to meet strict City of Renton architectural design standards, which will be evaluated by the City during the land use process. Renton School District will keep a portion of the playfield available for community use during the demolition process. There may be times that we will fence off the complete site as we work to remove the old building, for safety reasons. During construction of the new building, Renton School District will work to provide access to the playfield for as long as possible. Being that this is a construction project that affects the entire site, the field must be closed to the public for safety reasons, once work begins in that area. City of Renton D. Dobson 17 Requests playfield be located along Garden Ave N. The playfield is located along Garden Ave N. 18 Construction workers should exercise caution due to Comment noted. This information will be provided to the children living and playing on Garden Ave N contractors. 19 Historical The Renton History Museum is not listed as having The Renton History Museum was consulted during the and been consulted. Were historically significant SEPA process for demolition. A consultant has been cultural structures or features evaluated? working on documenting the old Sartori Education Center And preservati building for the Washington State Department of 9/7/16 on Archaeology and Historic Preservation database. Integrus R. Matheson 20 Transport There is a major error and omission in this The description of Garden Avenue N in the Transportation 4 P a g e

5 ation Transportation report on page 4, section which describes the existing roadway network. The report describes Garden Ave N. as a two-way, north-south roadway that provides connection between Bronson Way N to the south and N Park Drive to the north. Garden Ave does not connect from Bronson Way N to N Park Drive. This statement is inaccurate and implies that Garden Ave is a through street. There is no mention in the report of the traffic barrier which is in place at that location and there is no mention that there is no through access at the intersection of Garden and N 4th Street. 21 The SEPA Checklist does not mention any consultation with the City of Renton Traffic division regarding traffic citations on the surrounding streets. The report gives reverence to the number of collisions, but does not reference any knowledge of citations given or problems over time at adjacent intersections. I recommend that the City of Renton Police Department be consulted to gain a better understanding of issues at the surrounding intersections. 22 There needs to be improvements to the intersection of N 4th and Garden Ave N. Without any changes to the street, all traffic must approach the location in the left lane along N 4th Street and Garden. Additional traffic includes Boeing employees who utilize Meadow in the morning to cut through the neighborhood and go around to Garden north off N. 4th street, and also compounded by the Boeing employees in the afternoon leaving their parking lot and turning onto N 4th Street and into that same left lane that the parent pick up lane will spill onto. The current street system cannot accommodate the proposed additional traffic for this school. Technical Report has been revised to clarify that, while Garden Avenue N serves two-way traffic (i.e. it is not a oneway street), the raised island and access restrictions at the N 4th Street intersection prevent continuous travel for the length of the roadway. The island and the intersection turn restrictions were accounted for in the analyses. Traffic safety and collision histories are typical components of Traffic Impact Analyses and are used to identify possible existing unusual safety conditions that could be affected or affect a proposed development. Separate traffic violation, enforcement, and citation data are not typically part of this review. The analysis presented in the Transportation Technical Report accounted for existing background traffic volumes, peaking characteristics, and circulation patterns (including that of Boeing employees using the surrounding roadway and intersections). The analyses demonstrated that the study area roadways and intersections can accommodate the proposed school traffic without significant adverse impacts and no changes to the N 4th Street/Garden Avenue N intersection are required. Any changes to the roadway network, including changes to channelization, turn restrictions, or other intersection operations must be reviewed and approved by the City of Renton. In response to this comment, the Renton School District project team met with the City of Renton's Planning and Transportation staff to review this suggestion. The City stated that: "The City of Renton Police Department 5 P a g e

6 23 The current street system cannot accommodate the proposed additional traffic, all approaching the school in the left lane of N 4th Street. I again suggest the school district acknowledge this problem and meet with the City of Renton Transportation Department and North Renton neighbors to find solutions. I suggest the barrier not be removed, but possibly moved to a location to the north, changed to allow for school buses to travel across the street but closed to southbound traffic and possibly closed to northbound traffic. 24 There are Renton School District buses exiting the bus barn from a driveway directly across from the proposed entrance to the parent drop off loop. Many of these RSD buses which serve schools throughout the district will also be changing lanes immediately to go over to the left lane of N 4th street in order to turn left onto Park AVE. In order to alleviate the impact these buses will have on access for parents to the new school, Renton School District should make an additional entrance to the bus barn on the North side of the bus barn. An entrance should be added so that Renton School Buses could enter and exit the bus barn off of N 5th Street. This would help alleviate the impact of more school district traffic on N. 4th street. 25 There are Renton School District buses exiting the bus barn from a driveway directly across from the currently and will continue to provide patrol and presence in the area of the cut-through barrier located at N. 4th Street and Garden Ave N. during Boeing shift changes. The barrier was placed at its current location to direct vehicles to the N. 4th Street arterial. The removal or relocation of the barrier could result in additional school bus (other than Sartori busses) and cut-through traffic along Garden Ave N. At this time, the City is not recommending the removal or relocation of the barrier due to the potential increase of vehicle traffic on Garden Ave N. between N. 3rd and N. 4th Avenues." See response to comment #22, above. Due to routing needs (including routes that will serve the Sartori Elementary School), school buses are not expected to be exiting the bus base site during the peak 15 or 20 minutes associated with the Sartori Elementary School arrival or dismissal periods. Therefore, changes to access driveway locations for the bus base are not needed to accommodate the Sartori Elementary School project. See response to comment #24, above., 9/13/16 6 P a g e

7 proposed entrance to the parent drop off loop. Many of these RSD buses which serve schools throughout the district will also be changing lanes immediately to go over to the left lane of N 4th street in order to turn left onto Park AVE. In order to alleviate the impact these buses will have on access for parents to the new school, Renton School District should make an additional entrance to the bus barn on the North side of the bus barn. An entrance should be added so that Renton School Buses could enter and exit the bus barn off of N 5th Street. This would help alleviate the impact of more school district traffic on N. 4th street. 26 4th and Garden needs to be dealt with, and not ignored if parents and buses are going to be going through that intersection. The existing barrier needs to be reconsidered, as it is a problem as designed. 44 traffic citations from May 1 to September 6, 2016 for failure to comply with restrictive signs. RSD should acknowledge the need to address the issues at this intersection. 27 I request that a new, non-biased and more thorough study be done of the Sartori site for traffic impacts. The current study asserts that the impact of the traffic to the site is "negligible" meaning there will be no impact of the new traffic to the neighborhood from the new elementary school traffic. See response to comments #22 and #24, above. The Sartori Elementary School Transportation Technical Report was prepared in accordance with standard traffic engineering practice as outlined by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) in its Transportation Impact Analyses for Site Development - An ITE Recommended Practice (ITE, 2005). The analyses and report were also prepared consistent with the City of Renton s Traffic Impact Analysis Policy Guidelines for New Development (Rev. January 216). 9/14/16 9/18/16 The report stated that the project would result in increased traffic that would add delay to the study area. It also noted the potential for event-related parking impacts and possible queue spill over during peak afternoon dismissal periods. It recommended mitigation measures to address these potential impacts and determined that, with these measures, the project would not result in significant adverse impacts. The roadway network can accommodate 7 P a g e

8 28 The study needs to recognize what the impact will be of current traffic in the commercial zone (along Park AVE) being relocated into the residential zone (specifically along 4th and Garden). Traffic to the deli which occurs over the course of a day, will have significant impact when routed through the opposite intersection, which is on the residential side of the block. 29 Request a new study be conducted relating to the transportation impact with accurate data about the current use of the Sartori Learning Center. the project and would continue to operate at levels that meet the City's operational standards. The existing commercial uses (and associated traffic) on the Sartori Elementary School site, including the existing deli, will be removed to accommodate the project. The Renton School District does not foresee any commercial traffic from Park Ave N being re-routed to Garden Ave N, because of this project. The Transportation Technical Report and related operational analyses assumed no credit (or reduction) for the removal of the existing use of the Sartori Education Center. Section of the Draft report stated: Lulainen 9/18/16 Dobson "Typically, traffic impact analyses account for the removal of existing uses to determine the net increase in traffic associated with a new development. In those cases, traffic from existing uses to be removed would be subtracted before the new development s traffic is added. However, since some of the buildings on the site were vacant at the time that traffic counts were taken at study area intersection, no vehicle trip credit for the removal of these uses was applied to the 2018 with project traffic volume forecasts or operational analysis. The estimate of traffic generation by existing uses and the net changes expected due to the project are provided as a matter of disclosure..." 30 Renton School Districts scope of responsibility with the SEPA review is not just with the RSD property itself, but how it will impact the neighborhood (especially on issues like pedestrian safety and crosswalks - as the streets surrounding the school are not regularly 20 MPH and there will be a learning curve). However, to eliminate any potential confusion, that section and the presentation of the estimated net change in trips has been removed from the report for publication of the Final version. As outlined in Section of the Transportation Technical Report, mitigation recommended for the project includes District coordination with the City to review walk routes and determine if any changes should be made to crosswalk locations, signage, or pavement markings. Part of this effort would be to define and implement school zone speed limits according to City standards. Dobson 8 P a g e

9 31 I am very concerned about the speeding traffic that already exists on our residential neighborhood streets in North Renton and am certain that the problem will only worsen after the Sartori site school opens as people who drive through the area try to find another way around the school zone that will surely be created on Park Ave N. The issue as a whole definitely deserves more study and attention in order to best determine how to reduce the anticipated negative safety impact on N Renton residents and all those that pass through this area. The impact of traffic overflow and speeding on surrounding neighborhood residential streets to the Sartori site was not sufficiently addressed in the SEPA report initially. 32 I would like to bring your attention to the blocks between N 1st and N 3rd on Wells Ave N which are a unique problem demanding a prompt resolution. Because N 2nd as a cross street doesn't go all the way through Wells Ave N, there is not a stop sign for cars driving down Wells Ave N where N 2nd intersects it. This allows the myriad of impatient drivers that pass through here each day two full blocks to accelerate to unsafe and illegal speeds between the stop sign at the corner of N 1st and the stop sign at N 3rd. 33 Most of the homes along Wells Ave N were built during the early half of the 20th century so there are few driveways requiring many residents to park our cars on the street where we regularly have to enter and exit them while dodging speeding traffic. This problem will only drastically increase if nothing is done to correct the situation before the Park Ave N school zone is added and consequently additional traffic backups during school drop off and pick up times cause more motorists to use Wells Ave N as part of their commute. 34 If a stop sign with a white paint stop line could be placed on the right side of Wells Ave N where the intersection of N 2nd ends (although unusual As outlined in Section 4.4 of the Transportation Technical Report, operational measures recommended for the project include District coordination with the City to ensure that school zone speed limits are signed and enforced, and that crossing guard locations are identified and staffed. Changes to traffic control, including calming measures to address speed issues and cut-through traffic, must be addressed with the City of Renton. However, the Renton School District would not object to the City of Renton implementing measures to address these concerns. Krebs Krebs See response to comment #32, above.

10 because it's not a cross through intersection but a T intersection but I have seen this successfully used elsewhere) or a speed bump near there or a roundabout at the intersection any of which could make a huge difference to safety on our street, to the safety of the kids that live and play here, to all the pedestrians that currently walk through, and to the many cyclists and safe drivers that also use Wells Ave N. It should also be noted that in addition to an anticipated increase in vehicular traffic on our road, it is certain that pedestrian traffic will increase through here as resident children (including two of my own!) will be now be walking to and from the neighborhood school each day, as well as other community members who will be walking through the area in order to go to all the great events you expect to be held at this multi use school site in addition to using the field and playground during non-school hours. 35 At some point earlier this year or even last year perhaps there was a traffic monitoring trailer device positioned here which has a cable going across the street that you drive over which shows traffic speed and presumably gathers data. I have no idea if this was done based on previous neighborhood speed complaints or for this project as part of the traffic impact study but I have never heard anything about the results and there have been no changes made. In either case, if that data was considered in the scope of this project, please note that because the device was placed down near the stop sign by N 3rd where cars are already slowing down for the stop sign that the data gathered was not a true nor accurate reflection of the peak speeds at which drivers attain in the middle of these two blocks on a regular basis; not to mention the obviousness of the monitoring equipment itself is a deterrent to speeding because people often slow down when they see that their speed is being monitored. City of Renton Transportation staff indicated that the traffic data collection equipment referenced was part of its detour review effort associated with the Logan Avenue Reconstruction project. See response to comments #31 and 32 for information about speed enforcement associated with the Sartori Elementary School project. The Renton School District will continue to work with the City of Renton to help ensure compliance with speed limits in the site vicinity. Krebs 10 P a g e

11 36 Most Renton School District elementary schools are located along or between two lane roadways, but the Sartori site is bordered by these three busy four lane roadways and where existing crosswalk markings and signage exist they are minimal and aged. This area specifically is certain to require marked visibility improvements to the crosswalks that exist, including but not limited to new roadway paint, new and additional crosswalk and speed limit signage, the addition of blinking caution lights, and enhanced streetlights to better promote visibility and safety. Walking route safety for street crossings will need to be evaluated within your entire walking route radius (whether that ends up being one mile or a mile and a half) so that additional crosswalks, stop signs, or other safety features may be added where needed on surrounding neighborhood streets most of which as previously stated will see a significant increase in both vehicle and pedestrian traffic as a result of the completion of this project. 37 The City of Renton Truck Routes map should be distributed to all truck companies. Trucks should be approaching and exiting off Park Ave N and not traveling on other neighborhood streets. Recommends the District work with the Police Dept. to contact the truck companies. 38 The proposal will result in an increase in pedestrians in the vicinity of the school. Therefore, the City requests mitigation for potential impacts to pedestrians and to increase pedestrian safety. Further, we request that the mitigation measures listed below be included in the SEPA Threshold Determination and be subject ot City of Renon review and approval prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. As outlined in the Transportation Technical Report, there is a recommended mitigation measure that the District coordinate with the City to review walk routes and determine if any changes should be made to crosswalk locations, signage, or pavement markings. Part of this effort would be to define and implement school zone speed limits according to Federal, State, and City standards. Consistent with guidance presented in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) [FHWA, 2010], the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) Section addresses the establishment of School Zones and prescribes that reduced (20 mph) speed limit zones can be established and extend three hundred feet in either direction from a marked school crosswalk or three hundred feet from the border of a school or playground property. Comment noted. A Construction Management Plan (CMP) will be developed by the General Contractor, once contracted, and will be reviewed and approved by the City of Renton prior to the start of construction. The plan will address traffic and pedestrian control during school construction and define truck routes, lane closures, walkway closures, and parking disruptions as necessary. The CMP should direct trucks to arterials and away from residential streets to avoid unnecessary conflicts with resident and pedestrian activity. The Renton School District will work with the City of Renton to implement these improvements. As outlined in Section 4.4 of the Transportation Technical Report, these measures are part of recommended mitigation that will be prepared in the form of a Transportation Management Plan (TMP). Krebs, City of Renton LK 11 P a g e

12 Installation of school flasher speed limit signage. The location of the signage would be determined during the City s Construction/Utility Permit review process. Installation of radar sign(s) that provide vehicle speed. The location of the signage would be determined during the City s Construction/Utility Permit review process. Installation of curb bulbs on Garden Ave N at N 3 rd St and N 4 th St to reduce pedestrian crossing width. Preparation of a plan to be distributed to students and families that identifies safe walking routes to school and crossing guard locations. 39 The proposal would potentially result in vehicle queuing onto North 4 th Street at the beginning and end of the school day. In addition, off-site parking impacts to the surrounding neighborhood may occur during special school events. The City requests the following mitigation measures to address these concerns. The mitigation measures listed below should be subject to the review and approval of the City of Renton prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. 40 Public Services Preparation of an operational plan that provides preventative measures for offsite queuing onto N 4 th Street during pick up and drop off. Preparation of a parking plan for special events that may require more parking than is available onsite. The SEPA Checklist states there will not be a need for any additional public services. However, if no improvements are made to the intersection of N. 4th and Garden, this location will not be able to handle the added vehicular trips to this location. Two Renton Police Department officers will be required daily, for at least one hour in the morning, and one The Renton School District will work with the City of Renton to implement these measures. As outlined in Section 4.4 of the Transportation Technical Report, these measures are part of recommended mitigation that will be prepared in the form of a Transportation Management Plan (TMP). As outlined in Section 4.4 of the Transportation Technical Report, a Transportation Management Plan (TMP) has been recommended to help minimize traffic and parking impacts to the surrounding roadways and residential community. The TMP will be prepared in coordination with the school's administrative staff with the following objectives: City of Renton, 12 P a g e

13 hour in the afternoon, to direct traffic approaching the school. The proposed access for parent vehicles during drop off and pick up times is not appropriate for the surrounding street system without making any improvements to the street system. - Educate families about the access load/unload procedures for the site; - Encourage school bus ridership, carpooling, and supervised walking; - Define travel routes for family vehicles and instruct drivers not to block travel lanes; and - Address evening event conditions. The Transportation Management Plan (TMP) prepared for the school will be developed so that it can be adjusted to optimize its effectiveness. As a result, police traffic control and/or enforcement may be included initially or added later, if necessary. This will be coordinated with the City of Renton at the time of TMP preparation and school opening. 13 P a g e
