The parcel is 27.2 acres in size (Figure 2). The
road into the parcel has been there before 1990
(the oldest Google aerial photography available).
The parcel was timber harvested in 2011 except
for a narrow strip along the south side. The two
wetlands on the property were also harvested.
The parcel is in forest management with acreage
set apart for residential development.
METHOD AND APPROACH
A two Level Assessment was used to identify,
wetlands on Parcel 002334003 The first level of assessment included review of existing
information conducted to develop background knowledge of physical features, and to identify the
potential for wetland occurrence on the parcel. The resource documents available for preliminary
review of the site conditions included: USDA Soil Conservation Service (SCS), "Soil Survey of
Jefferson County Area Washington", 2013, Jefferson County and Google aerial photography, and
Jefferson County Planning Department data.
The second level of assessment included on-site investigation to determine the location of
wetlands and upland sites. On-site investigation determined and verified two wetlands and their
location based on the three -factor approach involving indicators of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric
soils and wetland hydrology as presented in the Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers

Version 8.1, 2017
The two wetlands are classified as to category using the Washington State Wetland Rating
System for Western Washington -October -2014, Effective January 2015, Washington State
Department of Ecology's Publication No. 03-06-029 and applicable Rating Forms Effective
January 1, 2015 (Appendix i1, III and IV).
WETLAND
Wetland Boundaries
Two wetlands have been identified on Parcel
002334003.
The first wetland is designed as wetland
002334003-A, shown here in Figure 3.
Wetland 002334003-A is approximately 0.6
acre. On the east side of the wetland is a
small excavated pond with a 6'x6' wide
concrete cistern in it. The pond and cistern
were apparently built when the parcel was
log in late fall of 2011.
The county data base shows Wetland
002334003-A continuing to the west off the
parcel. A logging road cuts across the
wetland on west property boundary.
Although there is a ditch built across the
property line there appears to be no extension
of the wetland to the west. There is a
drainage channel west of the logging road
that can be classified as a seasonal Non-
bearing fish stream (Ns).
The north side of this wetland was delineated
across the parcel width because of the single
family residence and associated
appurtenances to be built on the north side of
the wetland. Associated appurtenances
include an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) and two car garage, a work shop, a pole storage
garage and replacement of the old well pump house that will take place on the north side of the
wetland. Wetland 002334003-A classifies as a Category III requiring a 110 foot buffer. A
horizontal 110 foot buffer boundary was marked on the ground. The small ADU will be at the
edge of the wetland buffer but the proposed residential structure and other associated
appurtenances are farther away from the buffer. A tentative site plan is presented on Page 9 and
the general area of development is presented in Figure 5 on Page 9. The south side of Wetland
002334003-A was not delineated because all the area south is classified for forest management.

The north boundary of Wetland 0002334003-A is marked w i pyre 4 — Wetland 002334003-B
One small wetland area is in the Northwest comer
of the parcel and abuts Highway 101. This
wetland was assigned an identification number of
002334003-B. The only existing development
within the vicinity of this wetland is the existing
driveway into the property from Highway 101. As
there will be no other developments near wetland
002334003-B the owner agreed to apply a 140
buffer as required for a Category III un -delineated
wetland for moderate land impact use (Figure 4).
Wetland Criteria
The wetlands were identified as separate wetlands
and each has its own separate contributing basin.
Wetland 002334003-A has both slope and
depressional areas but is ranked as a depressional
wetland. Wetland 002334003 - B is a
depressional wetland. Both wetlands drain off the
property.
Vegetation: Parcel 002334003 and its associated
wetlands were harvested between September and
December 2011. The parcel was replanted with Pseudotsuga menziesii. Most of these trees are
now 8 to 10 feet tall. Both the wetlands meet Cowardin's definition of emergent and shrub -scrub.
The shrub -scrub slopes are dominated by Rubus spectabilis (salmonberry) with lesser amounts of
Rubus ursinus (trailing blackberry) Rubus procerus (Himalayan blackberry) Rosa Nutkana
(Nootka rose) as well as Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas fir) Alnus rubra (red alder) saplings.
Emergent species include Juncus effusus (soft rush) Equisetum telmateia (field horsetail) and
Cirsium arvense (Canada thistle). The depressional part of the wetland includes the same shrubs
but the dominant plants are emergent. Emergent include Juncus effusus (soft rush) Equisetum
telmateia (field horsetail), Carex obnupta (slough sedge) with lesser amount Epilobium ciliatum
(Watson willowherb) and Holcus lanatus (velvet grass). Permanent inundated areas support
Typha latifolia (common cattail). Two site specific plot data for Wetland 002334003 A are
located in Appendix I.

Soils: The Jefferson County Soil Survey map
indicates that the Belfast silty clay loam wet
variant (Bm), Clallam gravelly sandy loam
(CmC), Tukey gravelly loam (Tuc)and the Hoypus
gravelly loam (HuD & Hµc) map units are located
on the parcel.
Soils associated with Wetland 002334003-A (Plot
1) have a 3 inch thick loam surface, a 2 inch thick
silt loam subsurface and extremely hard
compacted silty clay loam subsoil greater than 5
inches thick. Five percent distinct redox
concentrations occur in the 3 to 5 inch depth and
the 5 to 9 inch depth is a depleted soil with redox
concentration listed above. The soil in plot 1
meets the hydric soil field indicator A l I (Depleted
below a Dark Surface.)." It also meets the range
of characteristics for the Belfast silty clay loam
map unit. The soil described on Plot 1 are only
found on the slopes on the north and east end of
the Wetland 002334003-A.
Plot 2 soils, on Wetland 002334003-A, are located
in the depressional part of the wetland. They have
a 6 inch thick loamy fine sand texture. The
subsurface layer is 6 inches thick loamy fine sand
and has greater than 2 but less than 20 percent
depletions in the matrix. The next four inches is
loamy fine sand with 30 percent depletions and 10
percent redox concentration in the matrix. The
soils in Wetland 002334003-A plot 2 meets the
hydric soil field indicator S5 (Sandy Redox).2 the
soi)s do not match any of the characteristics of soil
map units supposedly occurring on the parcel.
The soils on Wetland 002334003-B have 8 inches
of black loam and clay loam over 4 inches gleyed colored clay loam with 25 percent depletions
and 15 to 20 percent redox concentration in the matrix. From 12 to 17 inches the soil consists of
a depleted fine silt matrix with 20 percent redox concentrations in the matrix. The soils meet the
hydric soil field indicators Al l Depleted below Dark Surface, Fe Loamy Gleyed Matrix and F3
Depleted Matrix. The soils do not meet the range of characteristic for the Belfast silty clay loam
map unit as indicated on the soil map.

Hydrology: Wetlands 002334003-A is a slope depressional and Wetland 002334003-B is a
depressional wetland. Wetland 002334003-A receives runoff from its contributing basin and
subsurface discharge from the finer textured slopes on the north side of the wetland. Wetland
002334003-B receives some surface sheet flow but mostly receives subsurface discharge flow
from the Tukey and Clallam gravelly loamy sandy loams and loamy sands soils in its contributing
basin.
Most of the depressions in Wetlands 002334003-A were shallowly inundated during sampling in
September and had flowing water in some areas. Wetland 002334003-B was dry throughout the
wetland. Both wetlands are permanently and seasonally inundated in different areas while other
areas of the wetlands are seasonally saturated. The hydroperiods are not exhibited clearly on
aerial photos since hydroperiods sites are variable and small and dense leaf cover prevents being
able to distinguish the sites and delineate them on the photo.
Wetland Rating: The wetlands were rated using the updated 2014 Washington Wetland Rating
System. The classification rating sheets and accompanying figures can be reviewed in Appendix
II (Wetland 002334003 1) and Appendix III (Wetland 002334003-B). Table 1, on Page 7
provides a compiled summary of the wetland rating data and required buffers for Moderate
Impact Land Uses.
Wetland Buffers: The Buffer boundary for Wetland 002334003-A is marked with wood lath or
wood stakes with lath or stakes marked with flagging and lettered 110 feet. The North side of
Wetland 002334003-A is delineated in the field at 110 feet as per JCC 18.22.330 (18.22.330(2)
for moderate impact land uses (Figure 3). Since Wetland 002334003-B was not delineated it has
an apparent wetland boundary (Figure 4). Wetlands with apparent boundaries are required to
have an additional 30' added to the identified wetland boundary (non -delineated). So rather than
having a 110' buffer, Wetland 002334003-B has a 140' buffer. The decision to not delineate
Wetland 002334003-B was that it is in the NW corner of the parcel and its buffer would not
directly impact any of the location for the single family structure and associated appurtenances
and ADU. The only structure that is in the apparent buffer is the driveway and it has been
established since before 1990(the oldest available aerial photography to determine when the road
was constructed).
The buffer for Wetland 002334003-A is mark where the proposed plan indicates the location of
the proposed ADU and two (2) stall garage in addition to the location of the existing tool shed
and the pump house. All other structures (main residence, work shop and associated
appurtenances) are set to the west and north more than 140 feet from the wetland. A pole barn to
store motorize equipment will be eventually be built just north of the pump house (Figure 7).

STORER 002334003 LSWC October 2017
Soil
The understory consists dominantly of dense areas
Of Gaultheria shallon (salal) or Polystichum munitum
(swordfern). Other understory plants include
Holodiscus discolor (ocean spray), Rubus ursinus
(trailing blackberry), Rosa gymnocarpa (baldhip
rose), Oemleria cerasiformis (Indian plum), Rubus
parviflorus (thimbleberry), Rubus spectabilis
(salmonberry), Sambucus racemosa (red elderberry),
Rubus procerus (Himalayan blackberry) and
Vaccinium parvifolium (red huckleberry).
The described non -wetland soils did not meet the
range of characteristics of either the Tukey or
Clallam soil series. (Appendix 1, Data Plot Sheet).
The non -wetland soils have brown loamy very fine
sand surface and subsurface 10 inches thick. The 10
inch thick dark brown has loamy very fine sand
textures. The next 16 inch thick brown soil layer is
hard compacted loamy very fine sand. It breaks out
to moderate coarse subangular blocky structure and
breaks down to single grain sand. Five to 10 percent
gravel is found from 2 to 36 inches. The soil found at
the four septic test pits north of the area for
development (Figure 6) met the range of
characteristics of the Hoypus soils.
DEVELOPABLE AREA
Parcel 002334003 is 27.2 acres in size.
Approximately 2.5 to 3acres will used for residential
development (Figure 6). The logical area for development is just north of the slope edge of the
north facing slope to Wetland 002334003-A. The area provides the best visual view of the mouth
of Discovery Bay, Strait of Juan de Fuca and Mount Baker. The distance the buffer extends past
the top of the slope ranges from 10 to 30 feet. Most of the buffer north of the top of the slope,
slopes to the north, ranges from 5 to 15 percent. All structures will be single story. The tentative
site plan below shows the layout for the parcel (Figure 6).

HGM Classification of Wetlands in Western Washington
For questions 1-7, the criteria described must apply to the entire unit being rated.
If the hydrologic criteria listed in each question do not apply to the entire unit being rated, you
probably have a unit with multiple HGM classes. In this case, identify which hydrologic criteria In
questions 1.7 apply, and go to Question 8.
1. Are the water levels in the entire unit usually controlled by tides except during floods?
NO go to 2 YES - the wetland class is Tidal Fringe - go to 1.1
1.1 Is the salinity of the water during periods of annual low flow below 0.5 ppt (parts per thousand)?
NO -Saltwater Tidal Fringe (Estuarine) YES - Freshwater Tidal Fringe
If your wetland can bedassfied asa Freshwater Tidal Fringe use the forms for River I ne wetlands, If it
isSaltwater Tidal Fringeit isan Estuarine wetland and isnot soored.Thismethod cannot beused to
score fund ions for estuarinewetlands.
2. The entire wetland unit is flat and precipitation is the only source (>90%) of water to it. Groundwater
and surface water runoff are NOT sources of water to the unit.
YES - The wetland class is Flats
If your wetland can bedassified as Flatswetland, usetheform for Depressional wetlands.
3. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria?
The vegetated part of the wetland is on the shores of a body of permanent open water (without any
plants on the surface at anytime of the year) at least 20 ac (8 ha) in size;
_At least 30% of the open water area is deeper than 6.6 ft (2 m).
NO - go to 4 YES -The wetland class is Lake Fringe (Lacustrine Fringe)
4. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria?
__LThe wetland is on a slope (slopecan bevery gradual),
__LThe water flows through the wetland in one direction (unidirectional) and usually comes from
seeps. It may flow subsurface, as sheetflow, or in a Swale without distinct banks,
X The water leaves the wetland without being impounded.
NO gotYES-The wetland class is Slope
NOTE: Surface water does not pond in these type of wetlands except occasionally in very small and
shallow depressions or behind hummocks (depressions are usually <3 ft diameter and less than 1 ft
deep).
5. Does the entire wetland unit meet all of the following criteria?
_The unit is in a valley, or stream channel, where it gets inundated by overbank flooding from that
stream or river,
_The overbank flooding occurs at least once every 2 years.

Rating Form - Effective January 1, 2015
Wetland name or number Storer 002334003• A
NO -go to 6 - S The wetiand elass is Riverine-
NOTE: The Riverine unit can contain depressions that are filled with water when the river is not
flooding
6. Is the entire wetland unit in a topographic depression in which water ponds, or is saturated to the
surface, at sometime during the year? This means that any outlet, if present, is higher than the interior
of thewetland.
YES - The wetland class is Depressional
7. Is the entire wetland unit located Ina very flat area with no obvious depression and no overbatik
flooding? The unit does not pond surface water more than a few Inches. The unit seems to be
maintained by high groundwater in the area. The wetland may be ditched, but has no obvious natural
outlet.
NO - go to 8 YES - The wetland class is Depressional
8. Your wetland unit seems to be difficult to classify and probably contains several different HGM
classes. For example, seeps at the base of a slope may grade into a riverine floodplain, or a small
stream within a Depressional wetland has a zone of flooding along its sides. GO BACK AND [DENTIFY
WHICH OFTHE HYDROLOGIC REGIMES DESCRIBED IN QUESTIONS 1-7 APPLY TO DIFFERENT
AREAS IN THE UNIT (make a rough sketch to help you decide). Use the following table to identify the
appropriate class to use for the rating system if you have several HGM classes present within the
wetland unit being scored.
NOTE: Use this table only if the class that is recommended in the second column represents 10% or
more of the total area of the wetland unit being rated. If the area of the HGM class listed in column 2
is less than 10% of the unit; classiry the wetland using the class that represents more than 90% of the
total area.

If you arestill unableto determinewhich of the above criteria apply to your wetland, or if you have
more than 2 HGM classeswithin awetland boundary, classify thewetland as Depressional for the
rating.
