Tax Parcel Nos. 901114008 & 901114008) Dear Craig, This letter has been prepared at your request regarding the potential wetlands on your property. The Jefferson County critical area mapping system shows potential wetlands covering the east and northeast portions of your property. Ground-truthing by a biologist is often required when critical areas are mapped on property where development is proposed so that the required critical area buffers can be met and maintained. During the initial walkthrough ofthe property with you on August 11, 2006, I did not notice any wetlands on the site especially to the extent that is mapped on the Jefferson County inventory. I did note the location of the historically channeled east fork of Chimacum Creek and the significant native vegetation restoration planting that has taken place along the sides of the stream channel. I visited the site a second time on August 25, 2006 to make a non-wetland determination and to collect data supporting my conclusion. This determination was necessary to conclude whether or not you qualifY for a wetland delineation waiver under Section 3-3 of the Jefferson County municipal code. It was determined that there are no wetlands on your property so you appear to qualifY for a waver under the code. The determination was conducted using the Department of Ecology, Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation'Manual (Publication #96-74), as required by the Jefferson County Critical Areas Ordinance. This manual utilizes the three parameter methodology to determine the presence or absence of wetlands. The three parameters of wetland hydrology, hydric soil, and hydrophytic vegetation and positive indicators of all three wetland parameters must be present for an area under normal circumstances to be 1015 S.W: Harper Road, Port Orchard, Washington 98367 (360) 876-2403 Fax (360) 876-2053 o Durgan September 6, 2006 Page 2 l.. r=".., r.~~..:., '" W: Irl r,e n ~n r~" ~J.],IJBI.!::> \1/::::1 r l ijI'! \!; : I I i I !

The u,se of this manual and the three wetland parameter methodology on this parcel revealed that the site is under normal circumstances and that there are no wetlands present on the property and that a wetland delineation will not be required. Four test holes were conducted along the western bank of Chimacum Creek, in the areas shown as wetland on the Jefferson County Critical Area maps. At each test hole, a 16-inch soil pit'was completed to document the presence or absence of hydric (wetland) soil conditions (dark soil colors with or without mottling) and the presence or absence of wetland hydrology indicators (indicators include standing water on surface or in test hole; surface scouring; water stained vegetation; drift lines; and/or oxidized root channels in the soil). In a 30-foot diameter circle around these test holes, the dominant vegetation was recorded in order to determine whether or not the hydrophytic vegetation criterion is met. If there is greater than 50% cover by plants having indicator status of FAC (34-66% of the time in wetlands-equally likely in wetlands and uplands); FACW (67-99% of the time in wetlands); and/or OBL (greater than 99% of the time in wetlands), then the hydrophytic vegetation criteria is met. See attached drawing for approximate location of the test holes and Data Forms 1-4. The vegetation in the areas sampled at Test Holes 1-4 are dominated by trees and shrubs that have been planted and maintainedby North Olympic Salmon Coalition as part of the stream side restoration project and will be described below. The restoration area appears to have been planted in the last five to seven years. The tree layer contains a mix ofred alder (Alnus rubra) FAC, black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera) FAC, western red cedar (Thuja plicata) FAC, Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) FACU, Incense cedar (Calocedrus decurrens) NL (assumed FACU), Shore pine (Pinus contorta) FAC, and Paper birch (Betula pendulus) FAC. The shrub layer contains mixed percentages of red osier dogwood (Comus sericea) FACW, Nootka Rose (Rosa nutkana) FAC, Pacific ninebark (Physocarpus capitatus) FACW, western crabapple (Malusfusca) FACW, and hardhack (Spiraea douglasii) FACW.

The soil within the test holes is composed ofsingle and double layer profiles. The soil holes at Test Holes I and 2 revealed double layer sandy loam profiles with 12 inch surface horizons 0-12") that have a matrix chroma of 10 YR 3/3 and subsurface horizons (12-16") that have a matrix chroma of 10 YR 4/3. The soil holes at Test Holes 3 and 4 revealed single layer profiles that have matrix chiomas of 10 YR 3/3 with the soils in Test Hole 3 consisting of imported cobbley peat (man made ox-~ow as part of restoration) and the soils in Test Hole 4 consist of sandy loam. These soil profiles are not considered hydric because they have high matrix chromas at 10 inches; No hydrology or evidence ofwetland hydrology was found at any location on site excluding the actual channel ofthe stream, which was flowing at the time ofthe site visits. All ofthe test holes conducted on site reveal a dominance ofhydrophytic vegetation but lack hydric soil profiles and wetland hydrology or evidence of wetland hydrology and are therefore do not meet the wetland criteria. There appears to have been some attempts to create side channels or ox-bows as part of the restoration project on the west side ofthe stream. These areas are very small (approximately lOx 10 square feet) and are not considered wetland at this time. It appears that they may become wetland over time ifthe current hydrologic regime remains. It is also possible that these areas may wash out in heavy storm events in the future. Ifthese areas turn to wetland they would likely have a smaller buffer than the 150 foot stream buffer that is currently required from the ordinary high water mark of the stream. There also appears to be a wetland associated with the stream off site to the north of the property approximately 300 feet down stream. (See attached drawing of site) This wetland is at least 300 feet away from the site and will not have any buffers that would extend onto the property in question. In summary two site visits were made to your property on Chimacum Road in Chimacum, Washington (Tax Parcel Nos. 901114008 & 901114008) to determine whether wetlands area present.

During the initial site visit I was able to determine that there do not appear to be wetlands present on the property but that the east fork of Chimacum Creek runs north along the east property line and that there have been many native plants installed along the banks of the creek as part ofa North Olympic Salmon Coalition restoration project. A second site visit was made to collect data supporting my conclusion. The data collected revealed that there are no wetlands present on the property. There is a dominance ofhydrophytic vegetation present in the restored areas, but wetland soils and wetland hydrology are not present, therefore the area does not meet the wetland criteria in that there are no positive indicators present for all three wetland parameters. There appears to be an off site wetland off site and downstream that is at least 300 feet away and will therefore not have buffers that extend onto your site.
