Notice of Exemption for the replacement of the existing toilet facilities at the Mill Creek Park, which includes the upgrade of the existing 204 sq. ft. restroom structure located at the east end of the park, with upgraded LED interior lighting for enhanced illumination of facilities and more efficient utilization of the existing solar power supply, stainless steel restroom fixtures (toilets, urinals, sinks) and anti-graffiti coatings for durability and damage mitigation from vandalism. The project will also include the replacement of the existing portable toilet located at the Northwest end of Mill Creek Park, within the park, adjacent to the dam located in an existing turn-out, as well as the establishment of designated parking to accommodate five or more vehicles, including 1 ADA accessible parking space. The proposed replacement toilet would be 96 sq. ft., self-contained vault toilet that provides an estimated 4,500 uses between services.

The vault includes concrete holding tanks with wastewater and flush water indicators to virtually eliminate the risk of contamination of area ecosystems.
