Draft 7/27/2018 5 Proposed Methodology to Evaluate Boeing Driveway Counts for Determination of Mitigation Payments Goal The goal is to assess Boeing PM peak hour traffic volumes based on direct traffic vehicle counts for compliance with approved volumes. This document outlines the methodology for converting the output from electronic traffic counters into valid estimates of average PM peak hour traffic generated by Boeing on weekdays. This will help the City of Everett to establish and implement a valid program of traffic monitoring for future Boeing expansions. Should future Boeing PM peak hour traffic volumes exceed existing approvals this would also provide a framework for mitigating those potential impacts. Objectives Both principal parties,the City of Everett and Boeing, need to have confidence in the methodology and the reported volumes. The City needs to have confidence that if Boeing increases traffic,that the methodology will capture that increase. If Boeing is going to pay the City for future increases,then it should be confident that the increases are real and not temporary aberrations. Permanent Boeing Direct Count System The planned permanent counting equipment will be installed in a joint operation between Boeing and the City of Everett. Generally, Boeing will provide power to either a new or an existing pole where traffic counting equipment will be mounted. The City will install permanent, non-invasive radar-based counting equipment such as Wavetronix units on the poles. These will be installed at all locations where employee and vendor traffic can enter or exit from Boeing property on a driveway in City of Everett jurisdiction, forming a cordon around the Boeing campus. Definition of Terms The Boeing PM Peak Hour is the contiguous one-hour weekday PM period between 1:00 to 6:00 PM in which the highest Boeing traffic volumes occur(See Attachment 2). The Observed Annual Average Boeing Driveway Volume is the average number of vehicles entering and leaving Boeing facilities in the Paine Field area in the Boeing PM peak hour, Monday through Friday, including holidays, for each one-year measurement period. Count Equipment consists of the actual traffic counting devices as well as the related data monitoring and analsis software suite installed at Boeing driveways in the City of Everett. Driveway Count Data are the outputs from the count equipment showing the number of vehicles entering and leaving all Boeing driveways in 15 minute intervals. u,crs campk:documents iopened_from outlook,attachment c(tnethodoloae)doe
