INTRODUCTION
Ecological Land Services, Inc. (ELS) has been contracted by Francis and Sharon Redmon to
conduct a shoreline mitigation plan (SMP) to address potential impacts associated with remodel
of an existing single-family residence at 2590 East Quilcene Road, Quilcene, Washington. This
property consists of a residentia l shoreline lot, Jefferson County Parcel Number 701301006,
that lies in a portion of Section 30, Township 27 North, Range 1 West of the Willamette
Meridian (Figure 1). The project is located within the 200-foot shoreline jurisdiction of Quilcene
Bay and requires completion of a habitat assessment to satisfy the requirements of Jefferson
County Shoreline Master Program (JCSMP).
SITE DESCRIPTION
This flag-pole lot extends west from a private driveway off East Quilcene Road to the shoreline of
Quilcene Bay in Quilcene, Washington (Figure 1). Surrounding lots are residentially developed.
The lot is developed with a gravel driveway accessing a shed, creating a loop for parking, and
ending at a parking area near the southwest property corner (Photoplate 1). There is an existing
residence positioned on the slope below the gravel driveway near the northwest corner of the lot
(Photoplate 2). On the north side of the residence, there is a narrow footpath leading down the
slope to the beach (Photoplate 3) (Figure 2). Topography is highest at the east end of the lot and
slopes down moderately to the shoreline of Quilcene Bay. The lot is primarily vegetated by a
canopy of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and western redcedar (Thuja plicata) trees with a
sparse shrub layer of Oregon grape (Mahonia nervosa) and an even layer of sword ferns
(Polystichum munitum). The shoreline onsite is unarmored and well-vegetated with native
species (Photoplate 4). The shoreline is in a relatively natural state and even contains a narrow
band of beach grass along the south section of onsite shoreline (Photoplate 5). According to
JCSMP 18.52.270(4)(e)(i) the shoreline designation of this lot is conservancy and requires
shoreline buffer of 150 feet, measured from the OHWM (Figure 2).
SITE DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
The project proposes to remodel an existing single-family residence in the approximate footprint
of the existing residence (Figure 3). The proposed residence will expand the footprint by
approximately 848 square feet in the shoreline buffer. The new residence will expand
northeast, parallel to the shoreline and no closer to the OHWM than the existing residence. It
will utilize part of the existing gravel driveway and remove approximately 166 square feet of
impervious surface from the existing footprint. Table 1 details how the project proposes the
minimum amount of new impervious surface possible (Figure 8). The expansion to the existing
residence is proposed within the 150-foot shoreline buffer.

MITIGATION SEQUENCING
The expansion is proposed within the 150-foot shoreline buffer, partially over existing
development, and impervious surface. The 200-foot shoreline jurisdiction extends east from the
OHWM of Quilcene Bay and beyond the existing residence to the forested portion of the lot
(Figure 2). The 150-foot shoreline buffer extends east from the OHWM of Quilcene Bay up the
moderate slope beyond the residence. The proposed expansion is located within the shoreline
buffer. Because the expansion is proposed within the shoreline buffer, JCSMP requires
mitigation sequencing to ensure habitat functions are retained. As part of the mitigation
process, projects are required to address mitigation sequencing to assess whether the project
can avoid, minimize, rectify, or reduce impacts before identifying compensation or mitigation
measures.
Avoid
The project avoids new impacts to the shoreline by proposing the expansion parallel to the
shoreline and away from the OHWM. The project design was modified to avoid a large cedar tree
near the northeast corner of the existing residence, which avoids important vegetation impacts.
Some new impervious surface impacts are avoided by proposing the expansion over existing
impervious gravel driveway. All work will be performed from the upland.
Minimize
The project is minimizing impacts to the shoreline by removing 166 square feet of existing
impervious surface. The location of the expansion was selected to minimize vegetation removal
to the extent possible.
Rectify
The house represents a permanent structure within the shoreline buffer and cannot be rectified.
Compensate
The project cannot avoid all impacts but has minimized them to the extent possible. To
compensate for impacts that cannot be avoided, the project proposes to plant a total of 848
square feet of shoreline buffer. Approximately 200 square feet of upland near the footpath will
be planted with sword ferns recruited from the upland outside the shoreline buffer. The other
648 square feet of planting will occur near the OHWM and serve to supplement existing beach
grasses on the beach.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND HABITAT CONDITIONS
Shoreline Environment
The shoreline adjacent to this lot is located along the east side of Quilcene Bay (Figure 1). This
section of shoreline is composed of sparsely vegetated sand and gravel (Photoplate 5). Aquatic
vegetation was mostly absent from the beach, but there were isolated areas of pickleweed and
beach grass. This section of shoreline is sparsely developed with single-family residential homes
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 3 March 11, 2021
and is unarmored around the entirely of the eastern shoreline of Quilcene Bay. Adjacent lots
have coniferous riparian vegetation overhanging the OHWM (Figure 6).
Wildlife Inventory
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Priority Hab itat and Species map indicates
several offshore and nearshore priority species (Table 2) (WDFW 2021). The management area
for northern spotted owl is mapped across the township, however, no trees will be taken down
to accommodate the project. There are no other habitat features available for the federally
listed endangered, threatened, or sensitive species in the vicinity of this project except for listed
salmonids species, which utilize Quilcene Bay as part of their lifecycle (USFWS/NOAA Fisheries
2020). None of the species identified during online research were observed during the site visit
conducted on January 20, 2021. The shoreline environment is relatively undisturbed and so
provides high quality habitat to the species identified within this area of the shoreline. Estuarine
wetlands are mapped below the OHWM, but no estuarine conditions were observed on or near
the lot during the field visit.
Table 2. Priority Habitats and Species
Common Name Scientific Name Priority Area Impacted?
Surf smelt Hypomesus pretiosus Breeding Area No
Dungeness crab Cancer magister Presence No
Oyster beds -- Presence No
Pacific herring Clupea pallasi Breeding Area No
Northern spotted owl Strix occidentalis Occurrence No
Estuarine and Marine Wetland -- Aquatic Habitat No
Jefferson County Critical Area and Habitat Mapping
The Jefferson County Critical Area Maps (JCCA) tool indicates wetlands below the OHWM, FEMA
100-year floodplain to the toe of the slope, and continuous eelgrass along the shoreline on the lot
(Figure 4). It also maps a Type N stream channel along the south lot boundary. During the site
visit, there was no stream channel observed on or near the lot. It is possible that the channel has
been entirely tight-lined and repositioned on the landscape. The mapped floodplain unit extends
from the shoreline of Quilcene Bay to the OHWM (Figure 4). Native tree cover shades this upper
portion of the floodplain. No work is proposed within the mapped floodplain.
Buffer Functions
The required buffer on this lot is 150 feet, measured horizontally from the OHWM (Figure 2).
The buffer extends west from the OHWM of Quilcene Bay beyond the developed area, and into
the forested center of the lot. The existing residence, the parking area, and the looped portion
of gravel driveway represent the only impervious surface in the buffer. The remainder of the
buffer is well-vegetated with native upland forest. Surface water created on upslope impervious
surface flows over the slope before draining to the shoreline. Buffer function is relatively high in
this rurally developed section of shoreline.

IMPACT ANALYSIS
Shoreline Impacts
The 200-foot shoreline jurisdiction extends east from the OHWM of Quilcene Bay to the
approximate middle of the property (Figure 2). The shoreline of Quilcene Bay will not be directly
impacted by the project because it is proposed entirely in the upland (Figure 3). Work is primarily
proposed within the footprint of existing residential development and will not result in removal
of large trees. About 8 sword ferns and one shrub-sized hemlock tree will be removed on the
landward side of the existing residence to accommodate the expansion, preserving a larger cedar
tree. Wildlife use of the shoreline may be temporarily impacted during construction due to noise
and workers, but noise and light is expected to return to current levels upon completion of
construction. Upon implementation of the planting plan, the shoreline is expected to return to
pre-construction conditions quickly.
Shoreline Buffer Impacts
The 150-foot shoreline buffer extends east from the OHWM beyond the existing residence. The
proposed expansion is located within the shoreline buffer, but within the footprint of existing
development and avoids impacts by avoiding removal of important vegetation. Shoreline impacts
are limited to an increase in impervious surface and removal of ferns and one shrub. The
shoreline buffer will be improved with the addition of 200 square feet of upland planting area
between the residence and the shoreline and 646 square feet of beach grass planting to
supplement the existing patch on the beach (Figure 7). Stormwater impacts will be mitigated by
the development of a surface water management plan, which will convey and control runoff to
the beach and prevent erosion. Water quality onsite is expected to improve post-construction
with improvements to surface water management.
Temporal Impacts
These impacts include soil disturbance, noise, and possible dust that could affect wildlife
currently using the area during construction. These impacts are limited to the amount of time
construction is expected to take and is not likely to cause permanent damage. Equipment and
workers will only be onsite during the day for the minimum amount of time to complete the
project, to minimize noise impacts. Silt-fencing will be installed around the limits of disturbance
to prevent sediments from entering surface water.
Permanent Impacts
Long-term impacts associated with the expanded residence are limited because use of the lot is
not changing. The expansion is proposed in the footprint of a similar structure and it will not
have any new adverse or long-term effects on the shoreline. There will be no new permanent
impacts to the shoreline buffer because the expansion is proposed within existing development
and vegetation loss will be compensated by the mitigation plan. Stormwater impacts are
expected to be offset by development and implementation of a new drainage plan.
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 5 March 11, 2021
SHORELINE MITIGATION PLAN
The project proposes to expand the footprint of an existing residence within the developed
portion of the lot. Minimal vegetation will be removed to accommodate the project. There will
be a net increase in impervious surface onsite but new impervious surface has been minimized by
proposing the expansion partially over existing impervious driveway and removing an area of
impervious surface on the south side of the residence. The project achieves no net loss according
to the JCSMP.
Goals, Objectives, and Performance Standards
Project Goal: Improve the shoreline and buffer functions to compensate for the expansion of the
existing single-family residence. The performance standards focus on keeping cover by invasives
low and having a high survival rate so that there will be a net increase in percent cover.
Objective 1: Control invasive species.
Performance Standard 1(a): During Years 1 through 5, invasive species will be removed and
suppressed in the mitigation area as often as necessary to meet a performance standard of no
greater than 10 percent cover by invasive species. Himalayan blackberry will be controlled in
the buffer. Percent cover will be recorded annually and included in monitoring reports.
Objective 2: Enhance native plant cover within the shoreline buffer.
Performance Standard 2(a): The project will maintain 85 percent survival of plants in Years 1
through 5. Plant species number will be recorded annually and compared with as-built
conditions for inclusion with the monitoring reports.
Performance Standard 2(b): The cover by native plants within the shoreline buffer, which
includes installed natives, will increase over the 5-year monitoring period. The yearly percent
cover in the planting areas will be: Year 1 - 15 percent; Year 2 - 20 percent; Year 3 - 25 percent;
and Year 5 – minimum of 30 percent. Plant species percentages will be recorded annually and
compared with as-built conditions to determine overall success of the plantings.
Specifications for Planting
The plants specified for installation are intended to establish a native plant community
and improve the function of the shoreline and shoreline buffer. The specified grass and
ferns grow relatively quickly, and if maintained, will supplement the diverse community of
vegetation w ithin the shoreline buffer . Their installation is intended to improve upon the
ground level buffer function by increasing the density of different plant species. The proposed
location of the plantings is presented in the shoreline mitigation plan (Figure 8). The actual
location of the plants may be altered during implementation of th e plan.
Plant Materials
Plugs & Recruited Stock
1. The plugs will be purchased from a native plant nursery.
2. Sword ferns will be recruited onsite from outside the shoreline buffer.
2. Stock will be kept in a shaded area prior to being planted.
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 6 March 11, 2021
3. Stock will have well-developed roots with an appropriate root- to-shoot ratio.
4. No damaged or desiccated roots or diseased plants will be accepted.
Planting Specifications
Plants will be installed a s roughly indicated on the attached planting plan (Figure 8 ) or in
small groupings to mimic the natural environment and to enhance species survival. Table 3
provides a list of plants proposed for installation within the buffer based on the squar e footage
of the planting areas. Plantings will be spaced to allow for removal of invasive plants.

Planting Methods
1. Plant the specified potted shrubs and ferns as listed in Table 3 in the fall or winter 2021-
2022, after construction is complete. Space the plants somewhat to create dense
heterogeneity in the planting area. Plant the potted stock with a tree shovel or comparable
tool.
2. Place the potted species in the planting holes so that their roots are able to extend
down entirely and do not bend upward or circle inside the hole.
3. Position the root crowns so that they are at, or slightly above, the level of the surrounding soil.
4. Firmly compact the soil around the planted species to eliminate air spaces.
5. Irrigate all newly installed plants as site and weather conditions warrant.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of the planting areas will occur for 5 years and will involve removing invasive
plant species, irrigating planted species, and reinstalling failed plantings, as necessary. The
maintenance may include the following activities:
1. Remove and control non-native and/or invasive vegetation from within the shoreline
buffer a minimum of two times during the growing season for the first 5 years.
2. Irrigate planted species as necessary during the dry season, approximately July 1 through
October 15. ELS biologists recommend that watering occur at least every two weeks
during the dry season for the first 3 years. The most successful method of watering plants
is using a temporary above-ground irrigation system set to a timer to ensure the plants
are regularly watered.
3. Replace dead or failed plants as described for the original installation to meet the
minimum annual survival rate and percent cover performance standards.
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 7 March 11, 2021
MONITORING PLAN
The shoreline mitigation area will be monitored annually for a 5 -year period following plant
installation. Monitoring reports will be submitted to the Jefferson County Department of
Community Development (BDCD) by December 31 of each monitored year. The goal of
monitoring is to determine if the previously stated performance standards are being met. The
shoreline pla n ting areas will be monitored once during the growing season, preferably during
the same two-week period each year to better compare the data. An as-built planting plan
and report will be submitted to the Jefferson County Department of Community Development
following completion of invasive plant removal and native plant installation. The as-built plan
and report will document full implementation of the mitigation plan and any changes made to
the planting plan or location of the native vegetation. Submittal and approval of the as-built
report will initiate the required monitoring period.
The small size of the mitigation area and the low number of plants make it possible to monitor
the entire mitigation area during each yearly visit. Photo stations will be established from
several locations within the mitigation area to visually document the changes that occur in the
buffer during the 5-year monitoring period.
Vegetation
Vegetative monitoring will document the developing native vegetation b uffer within the
shoreline buffer area. The following information will be collected during each monitoring visit:
▪ Number and frequency of fern and grass species.
▪ Species composition of herbs and shrubs, including non-native, invasive species.
▪ Photo documentation of vegetative changes over time.
Monitoring Report Contents
The annual monitoring reports will contain at least the following:
▪ Location map and representational drawing.
▪ Historic description of project, including dates of plant installation, current year of
monitoring, and restatement of goals, objectives, and performance standards.
▪ Description of monitoring methods.
▪ Documentation of plant cover and overall development of plant communities.
▪ Assessment of non-native, invasive plant species and recommendations for management .
▪ Photographs from permanent photo points.
▪ Summary of maintenance and contingency measures proposed for the next season and
completed for the past season.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
If the performance standards are not met by the fifth year following project completion, or at
an earlier time if specified above, a contingency plan will be developed and implemented. All
contingency actions will be undertaken only after consulting and gaining concurre nce from the
JCDCD . The applicant will be required to complete a contingency plan that describes (1) the
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 8 March 11, 2021
causes of failure, (2) proposed corrective actions, (3) a schedule for completing corrective
actions, and (4) whether additional maintenance and monitoring are necessary.
SITE PROTECTION
The shoreline buffer area will be owned, maintained, and managed by the landowner , unless
such responsibilities are assigned to another entity. The owners will be responsible for
maintenance and monitoring of the planting areas for the prescribed 5-year period.
CODE COMPLIANCE
JCSMP 18.25.310(1)(f) Prior to granting a shoreline permit or determining that a proposed
use/development is exempt from permitting, the county should evaluate site plans to determine
the extent to which the vegetation is conserved. As needed, the county may require special
reports regarding vegetation and shall condition approval of new developments to ensure the
following:
(i) Native plant communities on marine, river, and lake shorelines are preserved; and
The only vegetation removal proposed will occur on the landward side of the existing
residence and will be replaced upon implementation of the planting plan (Photoplate 2).
(ii) Overhanging trees along shorelines are kept intact to provide shading and other ecological
functions; and
Several fir trees overhang the OHWM and shade the onsite shoreline (Photoplate 4).
None of these trees will be removed to accommodate the proposal.
(iii) Established areas of native plants are preserved to maintain slope stability and prevent
surface erosion; and
Approximately 8 sword ferns and one western hemlock shrub will be removed to
accommodate the expansion on the landward side of the existing residence. Native
vegetation dominates much of the lot including the shoreline slope between the
residence and Quilcene Bay. Erosive impacts are not expected to increase as a result of
the project because existing native vegetation is stabilizing the shoreline slope and
vegetation loss will be replaced upon implementation of the planting plan.
(iv) Structures and associated development are placed in areas that avoid dist urbance of
established native plants, especially trees and shrubs; and
Vegetation loss has been minimized to the extent possible to expand an existing structure
in the shoreline buffer. Trees have been avoided (Photoplate 2).
Redmon-Quilcene Bay Ecological Land Services, Inc
Shoreline Management Plan 9 March 11, 2021
(v) Clearing and grading near bluff edges and other erosion- or landslide-prone areas are
minimized to prevent slope instability; and
The lot does not have a bluff or any natural erosive-prone areas.
(vi) Shoreline development proposals should incorporate provisions for removing invasive or
nonnative species and planting native species when doing so would improve ecological functions
and processes.
There are no invasive species present on the lot. The shoreline mitigation planting plan
proposes to replace vegetation loss at a 1.24:1 ratio (Table 4).

Photo 1 was taken from the gravel driveway
where it enters the south lot boundary,
looking northwest towards the devel-
oped portion of the lot. There is a
wood shed on the west side of the
driveway located outside of shoreline
jurisdiction. This structure will be ex-
panded as part of the project.

Photo 3 was taken from the parking area near
the southwest corner of the lot, looking
north towards where Photo 2 was tak-
en.
Photo 2 was taken from farther north along the
gravel driveway looking west towards
the existing residence. The lot slopes
moderately such that the driveway is
approximately level with the roof of
the residence.
Photo 4 was taken from the gravel driveway
near the northeast corner of the ex-
isting residence. It looks along the east
side of the residence at the sloped area
where the proposed residence will ex-
pand into. Some of the proposed new
impervious surface will overlap with
the gravel driveway. There is a western
hemlock shrub, approximately 20 feet
tall, that will be removed to accommo-
date the expansion.

Photo 6 was taken from the same location as
Photos 4 and 5 looking west along the
north side of the residence. The cedar
tree pictured will be avoided to accom-
modate the proposed expanded foot-
print. All vegetation loss will be com-
pensated for by the mitigation plan.
Photo 5 was taken from the same location as
Photo 4 looking at the corner of the
existing house. Approximately 8 sword
ferns will be removed from this slope
to accommodate the expanded foot-
print.
Photo 7 was taken from the footpath to the
shoreline looking east towards the resi-
dence.

Photo 9 was taken from the same location as
Photos 7 and 8 looking southwest to-
wards the shoreline. The shoreline
slope is steep from the footpath to the
shoreline.
Photo 8 was taken from the same location as
Photo 7 looking south along the west
side of the residence. The shoreline
slope is moderately steep and dominat-
ed by dense conifer cover which cre-
ates a sparse understory.
Photo 10 was taken from the footpath looking
north at the shoreline slope below the
residence. This area is dominated by
Douglas fir trees, salal, beaked hazel-
nut, and sword fern.

Photo 12 was taken from the same location as
Photo 11 looking northeast towards
the north lot boundary. Trees are root-
ed along the entire section of shoreline
that shade the beach. The shoreline is
unarmored onsite.
Photo 11 was taken from the beach looking east
at the shoreline slope below the resi-
dence. The steep section of slope is
sparsely vegetated with trailing black-
berry and sword ferns.
Photo 13 was taken from the south end of the
onsite section of shoreline looking
north along the OHWM. There is a
sparse patch of beach grass between
the OWHM and the shoreline slope in
this area. The mitigation plan focuses
on supplementing vegetation in this
area.

Photo 15 was taken from the near the bottom of
the footpath looking at the beach grass
as it gets thin near the middle of the
onsite shoreline.
Photo 14 was taken from the same location as
Photo 13 looking towards Quilcene
Bay. The beach is relatively undis-
turbed and composed of sand and
gravel. Isolated pickleweed is growing
below the water.
