The purpose of the investigation was to locate the wetland within the parcel boundaries, determine its size, characterize its hydrology, vegetation and soil, classifij its function and value, then map the location on the ground and within this report. This report is required nationally by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (COE) to judge whether a proposed activity within a wetland fall under the scope of an existing Nationwide Permit (NWP). The proposed activity within the wetland is to cross the wetland with a driveway to gain access from Griffith Point Road to a prospective house site. The NWP that most broadly covers the proposed driveway is//26, Headwaters and Isolated Waters Discharges. With proper notification and approval, this NWP allows filling of up to 1/3 acre of a wetland. The COE administers Sections 404 and 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act which regulate activities within waters of the United States of America. Wetlands are considered a type of water of the U. S. A. Locally, the Jefferson County Permit Center requires this report and the COE response to judge compliance with the Interim Critical Areas Ordinance. The project site is located east of Griffith Point Road on Marrowstone Island in Jefferson County. It is one of 17 parcels created by survey in 1972 by Mystery Bay Enterprises. The appendix contains a portion from the Nordland quadrangle of the USGS topographic map with the project limits. The site is bounded on the east by Griffith Point Road, on the north by a 7 acre parcel developed with a single family residence, and on the south by undeveloped residential parcels. The parcel to the east was not observed during this investigation. The 8 acre site is located on a saddle and side slope of a glacial deposit. The area containing the wetland is a shallow depression at the toe of a westerly slope. The depression slopes slightly to the south at less than 0.5%. It is roughly 2000 feet long with width varying from 40 to over 100 feet. It outlets on its south end west into Kilisut Harbor. The contributing up gradient area north of the parcel is approximately 20 acres. The slope to the east averages 25% and ranges from 15% to 30%. The site has third growth timber and was last logged in the 1970's. Field work was initiated on May 4, 1997 by John Fleming, P.E. of Polaris. Assistance with vegetation analysis was provided by Dixie Llewellin of Olympic Wetland Resources (OWR). Mapping of the wetland was provided by Tillman Engineering. Field work was completed on May 12, 1997. Methodology Curremly, Chapter 173-22 of the Washington Administrative Code requires that wetlands within the State of Washington be delineated in accordance with the Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (1987 State Manual), Department of Ecology publication //96-94. The 1987 State Manual conforms with the methodology outlined in the United States Army Corps of Engineers (COE) Wetlands Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1 (1987 Manual). Field work to determine the existence of a jurisdictional wetland was conducted using the routine methodology found in the 1987 State Manual. The methodology requires C_wiffith Poim Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 1 examination of three parameters to declare an area a wetland: vegetation, soil, and hydrology. For an area to qualify as a wetland, all three features must meet certain diagnostic criteria. All wetlands independent of size are under the jurisdiction of the COE. All activities within wetlands must conform to the regulations that the COE administers. Prior to the fieldwork, the following maps were consulted to locate wet areas: Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Aerial photograph from 1965, 1972, 1974 and 1990 Soil Survey Map of Jefferson County Area (U.S. Soil Conservation Service 1975) National Wetland Inventory (NWl) map. Copies of the FIRM, three of the aerials, soil survey, and the NWI map with the subject area outlined are located in the appendix. The field work consisted initially of walking the parcel. After becoming acquainted with the different plant communities, the line of change from hydrophytic to non-hydrophytic vegetation was walked. At 50 feet intervals, a course was walked outward, perpendicular to this boundary toward non-wetland looking for stray exterior limits. Two pairs of data points were recorded to determine the contrast between the wetland the surrounding non-wetland. After it was determined that a jurisdictional wetland was present, the focus was on determining the boundary. The boundary was found at the point where one of the three parameters required to define a wetland no longer existed. Two soil test pits were logged in areas where it was suspected that .hydric soils or wetland hydrology were missing. When them existed a definite line of vegetation change and no mixing of hydrophytes and non-hydrophytes, or a strong topographic rise up from the edge of the wetland, there was no documentation by data points or soil test pits. The marking of the wetland boundary began at the south property line. Orange plastic ribbon labeled with "Wetland Boundary" was marked with an alpha-numeric code to identify the boundary point. The codes are shown on the enclosed Figure 1. The ribbon was tied to vegetation at eye level or higher, unless only herbs were available. The spacing of the markers was usually 50 feet. Longer distances were used, up to 75 feet if sighting was clear and the boundary linear. Shorter distances were used if visibility was poor or the boundary changed direction. Mapping was accomplished by survey. Vegetation, soils, and hydrology were examined during the beginning of the growing season. The start of the growing season is defined by ground temperatures at and above 41 degrees Fahrenheit at 20 inches depth below the soil surface. The information was collected using the revised standard forms provided by the 1987 State Manual. Wetland function and value was rated using the Washington State Department of Ecology (WSDOE) Wetland Rating System (10/91). Those Category 3 and 4 wetlands with area less than 10,000 square feet are exempt from the buffers otherwise required by Jefferson County. For Category 2 wetlands, the exemption is applied only to those with less than 2500 square feet of area. Gdffith Point Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 2 Description of Site The soil survey shows four mapping units for the project site: Semiahmo0 muck, Dabob very gravelly sandy loam, Whidbey gravelly sandy loam with slopes of 0 to 15% and 15 to 30%. The Semiahmoo series is hydric. Its location corresponds with the area found to be wetland. The Dabob and the two Whidbey series are derived from weathering of compacted and cemented glacial till deposited approximately 12,000 years ago. The soil is permeable to only about 2-1/2 feet in depth. The Dabob series has a perched water table on top of the till which rises to within 1-1/2 feet from the surface in the winter months. Neither Dabob nor Whidbey series are hydric nor do they have hydric inclusions. The NWI documents no wetlands on this parcel. This does not imply there are none present. There is a documented wetland approximately 200 feet off site to the east. Findings A jurisdictional wetland was observed within the project limits. The wetland measured approximately 0.6 acres within the property limits. It is estimated to be 2 acres in total. The wetland continues to the north and to the south from the property. It is crossed by several driveway fills. Two of the driveway fills observed down grade from the subject parcel had culverts to allow passage of surface water. The wetland was characterized with 4 data points. The data point locations are shown on the wetland map Figure 1. The data forms from this site are located in the appendix. The data points are summarized in Table 1 and 2. Table 1: Wetland Data Point Summary, Table 2: Non-wetland Data Point Sum,mary Griffith Point Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 3 Vegetation Wetland plant species must constitute greater than 50% of the dominant vegetation present to meet the qualification as a site having hydrophytic vegetation. The selection of dominant plant species is determined calculating the areal cover at each sampling site within a 30 feet radius. Within each vegetative layer, those species that are present for greater than or equal to 20% of the total relative coverage are selected as dominants. Commonly occurring plant species have been rated by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) in the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summa~, with the 1993 Supplement for the Northwest, Region 9, as to their frequency of occurrence in wetlands and non-wetlands. During the field work, dominant species in each stratum (herb, shrub/sapling, woody vine, & tree) were recorded at the data point sites and given a rating according to their indicator status using this system. Some of the plant species from the site, such as red alder, can occur equally in wetland or non-wetland sites. Table 3 and 4 summarize the plant species found dominating the wetland and the non-wetland areas. The most prevalent species found in the wetland were nootka rose and salmonberry. The most common species found in the adjacent non-wetlands were sword fern, salmonberry and red alder. Generally, the occurrence of sword fern indicated non-wetland area. Sword fern was a dominant specie at wetland data point 4 only because of its micro-habit on elevated clumps.

Griffith Point Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 4 Table 4: Dominant Species Found in the Non-wetland Plant Communities Soils A hydric soil is a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part. When it is not possible to evaluate the soil when water can be observed in the soil at depths less than 12" for longer than 12.5% of the growing season, indicators are used to infer presence of hydric soil. Some indicators for nonsandy hydric soils include reducing soil conditions, presence of certain low chroma soil matrix colors, or presence of soils appearing on a hydric soils list. The soil matrix is the largest single colored area seen on the face of a soil clod. The chroma is that portion of the color that describes the relative purity or strength of the color. Chroma indicates the degree of saturation of neutral gray by the color. The chroma increases numerically as the proportion of white light decreases. Chroma is the last number given on the Munsell color designation, which appears in the appendix on the data sheets' soil logs. Chroma ranges from/0 for neutral colors up to/8 for the strongest colors (Soil Survey Manual). The indicator of hydric conditions by low chroma soil matrix is chroma/1 or less without mottles, or chroma/2 with mottles. The depth of observation for this indicator is at 10" or just below the ^ horizon, which ever is shallower. The average growing season in the Port Townsend area extends from February 28 to November 20, adding up to 265 days. On March 5, 1997, soil temperature at a site close to the same elevation as the subject site was 43° F, indicating the growing season was on schedule. Twelve and one-half percent of the growing season is 33 days. Thus, if soil saturation within 12" of the surface is observed on or after April 3, then duration of saturation is sufficient to meet the hydric soil criteria. The hydric soil sampling points met the low chroma matrix color indicator. Non-hydric soil sampling points met none of the indicator criteria. Soil test pit information can be found on the second page of each data point form located in the appendix. Two additional soil test pits were excavated to determine extent of hydric soil and wetland hydrology where there was questionable vegetation, or a shallow grade. Table 5 summarizes the soil test pits (STP). STP-1 was dug to determine if an elevation rise from a Gfiffith Point Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 5 · inundated area was sufficient to change from wetland to non-wetland. It was not, and the wetland boundary was placed higher in elevation. STP-2 was dug along the Griffith Point Road easement to see that the wetland hydrology and hydric soil extended to the road. ~Tabl. e 5: Summa~..of s0,ii Test Pits Hydrology Wetland hydrology is present if an area is inundated or the soils are saturated to the surface for a sufficient duration during the growing season to develop hydric soils and support vegetation that is adapted to life under anaerobic soil conditions. If hydrology cannot be observed directly during the beginning of the growing season, as stated above, around April 3, then indicators may be used. An indicator used in this study to reinforce the direct observation of soil saturation was drainage patterns. The data points' hydrology are covered in the sections abOVe. Where investigated, the edge of wetland hydrology was selected where the soil saturation fell below 12" from the native soil surface. Generally, there was close correlation between all three wetland parameters in determining the location of the wetland boundary. This has been a high rainfall year, as Table 6 illustrates. Port Townsend has received approximately 124% of its average rainfall since October, 1996. Most of the excess precipitation came during December and January. This may have inundated the wetlands to higher than normal levels. The effect this has on where the wetland boundaries are placed do not significantly affect this parcel. Vegetation and soils confirm the wetland boundary that was formed by the observed wetland hydrology. Ta,b.!e.,6: Com, parison of this ~ain .Y~r to Av,,erage' Y,ear Griffith Point Road Wetland Determination, June 23, 1997, Page 6 Wetland Classification Under the WSDOE Wetland Rating System, the wetland ranks as a Category 2 with 34 points. The wetland acquired its points through its size, the presence of many plant species, having three distinct layers of vegetation classes, by providing wildlife habitat, and connection to other habitat areas with protective vegetative cover. The rating form is attached in the appendix. As per the Jefferson County Interim Critical Areas Ordinance, the Category 2 rating carries a 50 foot buffer for low intensity land uses. This parcel qualifies as low intensity land use as per definition 43. (a.) of the Ordinance, "A single family residence on a legally created building lot with a minimum lot area of one acre or greater in size". See Figure 3 for the extent of the wetland buffer. The buffer restricts uses, protects the water quality and isolates the habitat. See Figure 4 for the proposed buffer averaging proposal for crossing the wetland with a driveway. Conclusion One jurisdictional wetland was located within the study area. The size of wetland observed was approximately 0.6 acres on the site. It rates as a Category 2 with a 50' buffer. This wetland is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and Jefferson County. Any persons planning further activity in the wetland or its buffer, are hereby advised to contact'the County and the COE for their permitting requirements. All activities within this wetland must have approval from the COE. The final authority over this wetland determination and the areas under their jurisdiction rests with the governmental agencies themselves and must be verified by them. ..

The site contains a portion of a 2 (+/-) acre wetland. Mr. Tiliman is proposing to fill a portion of a wetland to create a driveway from Griffith Point Road east to a future house site. The wetland drains west to Kilisut Harbor. Attached is a portion of the USGS Nordland quadrangle and a portion of the Soil Survey of Jefferson County Area with the with the subject parcel sketched in the Northwest quarter of the Southeast quarter of Section 32, Township 30 North, Range 1 EastQ Therefore, we are requesting the WA Natural Heritage Program answer and document the following questions for this wetland: · Does the wetland contain individuals of Federal or State-listed Threatened or Endangered plant species; or is the wetland an histodc location of a plant species thought to be possibly Extinct of Extirpated from Washington? · Is the wetland already on record with the Washington Natural Heritage Program as a high quality wetland? · Does the wetland contain individuals of State-listed Sensitive plant species?

Road, Marrowstone Island (T30N R01E S32 NWOFSE) " We've searched the Natural Heritage Information System for information on significant natural features in your study area. Currently, we have no records for rare plants or high quality ecosystems in the vicinity of your project. The Washington Natural Heritage Program is responsible for information on the state's endangered, threatened, and sensitive plants as well as high quality ecosystems. The Department ofFish and Wildlife manages and interprets data on wildlife species of concern in the state. For information on animals of concern in the state, please contact Priority Habitats and Species, Washington Department ofFish and Wildlife, 600 Capitol Way N, Olympia, WA 98501-1091, or by phone (360) 902-2543. The information provided by the Washington Natural Heritage Program is based solely on existing 'information in the database. In the absence of field inventories, we cannot state whether or not a given site contains high quality ecosystems or rare species; there may be significant natural features in your study area of which we are not aware. I hope you'll find this information helpful.

Olympia, WA 98501-1091 Fax: (360) 902-2946 Re: Driveway crossing wetland off Griffith Point Road (NW % SE % S32 T30N RIE) Dear Sandy: Mr. Ryan Tillman is considering purchasing an 8 acre residential parcel from Mr. Scott and Ms. Michelle Harriage. The site contains a portion of a 2 (+/-) acre wetland. Mr. Tillman is proposing to fill a portion of a wetland to create a driveway from Griffith Point Road east to a future house site. The wetland drains west to Kilisut Harbor. Attached is a portion of the USGS Nordland quadrangle and a portion of the Soil Survey of Jefferson County Area with the with the subject parcel sketched in the Northwest quarter of the Southeast quarter of Section 32, Township 30 North, Range I East. Therefore, we are requesting the WDFW answer and document the following questions for this wetland: · Does the wetland contain documented habitats of State-listed or candidate Threatened or Endangered wildlife species managed by the WDFW? · Does the wetland contain documented habitats of State-listed or candidate sensitive wildlife species managed by the WDFW? · Is the wetland already documented as habitat of regional (Pacific Coast) or national significance for migratory birds? · Does the wetland contain priority species or habitats documented by WDFW Pdority Habitats and Species Program? We understand that we may be billed and must remit payment prior to receiving the results of the data search. If you have any questions, please call. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, oh~n S.

Olympia. WA Date: ~ ~OJ / c] ~ 7 Dear Data Requester: Enclosed is the information you requested from the Washington Department of Fish a-nd Wildlife (WDFW) concerning the agency's priority habitats and species. This package may also contain documentation to help you understand and use these data. . . This information only includes data that WDFW maintains in a centralized data system. It is not an attempt to provide you with an official agency response as to the impacts of your project on fish and wildlife. Nor is it designed to provide you with guidance on interpreting this information and determining how to proceed in consideration of fish and wildlife. This data only documents the location of important fish and wildlife resources to the best of our knowledge. It is important to note that priority habitats or species may occur on the ground in areas not currently known to WDFW biologists, or in areas for which comprehensive surveys have not been conducted. Site-specific surveys are frequently necessary to rule out the presence of priority habitats or spedes. Your project may require further field inspection or you may need to contact our field biologists or others in WDFW to assist you in interpreting and applying these data. Refer to the enclosed directory and regional map for those contacts. Generally, for assistance on a specific project, you should contact the appropriate WDFW regional office and ask for the area habitat biologist for your project area. Please note that sections potentially impacted by spotted owl management concerns are displayed on the 1:24,000 scale standard map products. If specific details on spotted owl site centers are required they must be specially requested. WDFW periodically updates this information as additional data become available. Because fish and wildlife species are mobile and because priority habitats and species data is dynamic, project reviews for fish and wildlife should not rest solely on mapped information. Instead, they should also consider new data gathered from current field investigations. Remember, priority habitats and species data can only show that a species or. habitat type is present, they cannot show that a species or habitat type is not present. These data should not be used for future projects. Please obtain regular (6 months) updates rather than use outdated information. Because of the high volume of requests for information that WDFW receives, we need to charge for these data to recover some of our costs. Enclosed is an invoice itemizing the costs for your data and instructions for submitting payment.
