The property is located in Section 36, Township 28N, Range 02W (Figure 1). A wetland determination and rating were done by former MSA staff James Laleggio, Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS), on January 4, 2018 (Appendix A). A sloped wetland was rated as a Category III wetland and assigned a 110' buffer, plus an additional 30' (140') for an apparent boundary (water quality score of>5; Jefferson County Code, Table 18.22.330121), on parcel 802362004. The client was asked by Jefferson County Department of Community Development to, "provide a wetland delineation and/or revised site plan for a new septic system location that is not within the identified wetlands or buffer" (Appendix B). On April 4, 2019 a sloped wetland (East B) was delineated to determine if enough space would be available for the proposed septic system location as shown on the site plan in Figure 2. Plots were established to determine soil characteristics and presence of plant and hydrology indicators (VHS -1 and VSH-2; Appendix C). To distinguish the types of plants that grow in different hydrologic regimes, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service incorporated a system of wetland plant indicator status to classify individual plant species. The wetland indicator status of a species is based on the individual species occurrence in wetlands in 13 separate regions within the United States. A plant indicator status is applied to the species, although individual variations exist within the species. Plant species were identified and given an indicator status according to the National Wetland Plant List: Western Mountains, Valleys & Coast. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (NWPL, 2016). Indicator categories are as follows: OBL — Obligate Wetland — Almost always occurs in wetlands under natural conditions. FACW — Facultative Wetland — Usually occurs in wetlands, occasionally found in uplands. FAC — Facultative — Equally likely to occur in wetlands or non -wetlands FACU — Facultative Upland — Usually occurs in non -wetlands, occasionally found in wetlands. UPL — Obligate Upland — Almost always occurs in uplands under natural conditions. This site is very disturbed, having been farmed and grazed for years. Overall, the dominant species were planted Kentucky BILICgrass (Poa pratensis) — FAC, Reed Canary Grass (Phalaris arundinacea) — FACW and Common Rush (Juncus effuses) — FACW. Plants were indicative of a wetland and passed the dominance test as such. The wetland soil sample (VSH-2) ranged in depth from 0 to 16 inches and keyed out as Depleted Below a Dark Surface (All) with a layer of charcoal fill from 5" — 8" (Figures 3 and 4). Hydrological indicators were weak with only a few indicators detected from the secondary list — Saturation Visible on Aerial Imagery (C9)1 and Geomorphic Position (D2) — convergent slope near toe. This delineation was completed following a record dry March for the area, which was cause for questioning whether or not hydrology was properly represented. On June 19, 2019 a site visit was made with Donna Frostholm, Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS) of Jefferson County Community Development to determine the status of Wetland East B. Though the site visit was after a period of heavy rainfall, no hydrology indicators were present. Donna confirmed this is no longer a viable wetland, and suggested that one more soil pit be examined to the NW, closer to the original apparent boundary, which was mapped by James Laleggio. The property owner was present for the visit and explained that he had a second proposed drain field site near the upper, west side of the apparent wetland boundary (West B; Figure 3). It was decided that a final visit would be made to determine if a delineation would be necessary, or a revised site plan with a new location that would locate the system outside of the wetland (West B) apparent boundary (140'). On July 5, 2019 the site visit was completed. Soil was examined in the area to the NW of VSH-1 and VSH-2 (Figures 3 and 4). The same (All) soil from 0"-19" was found. Even after a recent rain, the soil was relatively dry with no good indicators of hydrology. Plants included: Reed Canary Grass (Phalaris arundinacea) — FACW, Canada Thistle (Cirsium arvense) — FAC, Himalayan Blackberry (Rubus armeniacus) — FACU, Salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis) — FAC, Western Red Cedar (Thuja plicata) — FAC and Ranunculus sp. Using a handheld Garmin 64st, surveyor's tape and a compass, a line was traversed and measured from the southern and closest edge of the drain field to the wetland edge. The southern end of the proposed drain field was found to be approximately 200' from the wetland (West B) edge (Figure 3). In conclusion, both proposed septic drain field areas are outside of regulated wetlands and their buffers. As long as the site plan does not change, no mitigation is being proposed.

On the above referenced date, a wetland reconnaissance by James Ialeggio of Marine Sureys & Assessments found two separate wetlands located on your property. A wetland (Wetland A) to the east of Leland Valley Road was rated a Categoty 2 Riverine wetland with a buffer of 11011 (water quality score of 8-9, habitat score of 5-7; Jefferson County Code, Table 18.22.330{2}). Another wetland (Wetland B) was found to the west of Leland Valley Road, which was rated a Category 3 Sloped wetland, also with a buffer of l 10ft (water quality score of>5; Jefferson County Code, Table 18.22.330{2}). Although they are certainly hydrologically connected and both feed Lake Leland to the north, these wetlands were deemed to be separate units for the following reasons, stipulated by the Washington Department of Ecology's 2014 Washington State Wetland Rating System for Western Washington: ■ a distinct change of slope and therefore hydrologic conditions • the presence of Leland Valley Rd, a manmade hydrologic barrier, between the two wetlands. Wetland A's approximate boundary was referenced by a set of soil plots, which were bolstered by a clear vegetation change from upland to wetland; those points are included on the attached image. Soil plot GPS locations are as follows: • Dry: 47.88123, -122.88029 ■ Wet: 47.88134,-122.88019 Wetland B's approximate boundary was referenced by two sets of soil plots. Although it likely exists uphil I and to the west of your property, the mapped area of Wetland B begins at the pond, and follows a drainage east and downhill, crossing under the driveway where indicated on the attached image, and eventually flowing under Leland Valley Road and connecting with Wetland A. Soil plot GPS locations are as follows: • Dry: 47.88138,-122.88399 • Wet: 47.88[15,-122.88416 The locations of both the assessed wetland and the property lines on the attached image are approximate, and meant only general reference. They do not represent a delineation of those wetlands. Below are attached • data sheets from the soil survey plots; • relevant data sheets from the two wetland ratings; ■ an image showing the approximate location of your existing property lines, the two wetlands, and their associated 100ft buffers; • an image of the Ikm surrounding the wetlands necessary to complete the ratings, complete with land use types.

If the tsydroIogic criteria lfsted In each question do not apply to the entire un!� Fctngratccl, you probablyhave a unit with multiple IfGM classes. In this case, identify which hydrologic crit ria In questions 1-7 apply, and go to Question B. 1. Are the water levels in the entire unit usually controlled by tides except during floods? 69-- 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 O.S ppt (parts per thousand)?

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 ifpresent is higher than the interior• of the wetland. NO - go to 7 YES - The wetland class is Depressional 7. Is the entire wetland unit located in a very flat area with no obvious depression and no overbank 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 bedifficult toclassify and probably contains several different HGM Classes. For example, seeps at the base of a slope may grade into a riverine floodplal n, or a small snram within a Depressional wetland iias a zone of flooding along its sides.

If the hyd rol ogic criteria listed in each question do nat apply to the entire unit being rated, you probably have a unit with multiple HGM classes. In this case, ldenttfv which hydrologic criteria In questions 1-7 apply, and go to Question 8. 1.

Wetland Rating System for Western WA: 2014 Update Rating Form - Effective January 1, 2015 30 Wetland name or number` NO - go to 6 YES - The wetland class 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 ffpresen4 is higher than the interior of the wetland, NO -go to 7 YES - The wetland class is Depressional 7. Is the entire wetland unit located in a very flat area with no obvious depression and no overbank 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 maybe 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 ofa slope may grade into a riverine floodplain, ora small stream within a Depressional wetland has a zone of flooding along its sides. GO BACK AND IDENTIFY WHICH OF THE HYDROLOGIC REGIMES DESCRIBED IN QUESTIONS 1-7 APPLY TO DIFFERENT AREAS 1N 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, classify the wetland using the class that represents more than 90% of the total area. HGM classes within the wetland unit being rated HGM class to use in ratio Slope + Riverine Riverine Slope + Depresslonal Depresslonal Slope+Lake Fringe Lake Fringe Depressional+ Riverine along stream within boundary of depression Depressional Depressional + Lake Fringe De resslonal Riverine+Lake Fringe Riverine Salt Water Tidal Fringe and any other class oFfreshwater wetland Treat as ESTUARINE Ifyou are still unable to determine which of the above criteria apply to your wetland, or ifyou have more than 2 HGM classes within a wetland boundary, classor the wetland as Depressional for the rating.
