Proposal for future residential development - installation of a septic system, construction of a single-family residence and garage/shop. FACTORS CONSIDERED 1) Landowners goals were considered through a review of the Site Plan Approval Advanced Determination (SP AAD) application submitted to the Jefferson County Department of Community Development. Numerous site visits were conducted on the property. An initial site visit was conducted with the present landowner Margaret Campbell and her real estate agent (and sister-in-law) Mabel Campbell. A site visit was conducted on March 17, 2004, to review the proposed site development plan and discuss achieving a water view with the potential buyers of the property. Margaret and Mabel Campbell were also present during this site visit. Phone conversations have been conducted with the landowner and various e-mail messages were exchanged with Mabel Campbell. A few phone conversations were held with permit review staff from the Jefferson County Department of Community Development. 2) Bald eagle habitat use was considered by analysis of territory integrity through time, current surrounding habitat conditions, potential for blow down, current status of the population, and scientific literature concerning bald eagle habitat protection. BACKGROUND The Gardiner Bald Eagle Territory is located in Jefferson County, approximately 7 miles southwest west of Port Townsend (Figure 1). The territory is on the west side of Discovery Bay, between Diamond Point and Contractors Point. The Washington Department ofFish and Wildlife (WDFW) documented this new nesting territory in June of2003. The WDFW had observed bald eagles perching along the shoreline near Gardiner for many years and was highly suspect that a nesting territory was located in the vicinity. One landowner - reported a possible nest on a property inthe area in the fall of2002. A search was conducted by WDFW but no eagle nest was confirmed. In late June of2003, the wpFW received another report of a nest in the area. The reporting party was concerned about possible disturbance to the nesting eagles from road clearing work on the property where the nest was located. Ihe WDFWmvestlgated the report and locateathe new--- ---- Gardiner bald eagle nest. The nest is in a mature live grand fir tree located approximately 50 feet south of the top of the bank above Discovery Bay (Figure 2). The tree is approximately 140 feet tall and the nest is down 20 feet from the top on the east side of the bole. There is another similar sized grand fir tree just 5 feet north ofthe nest tree. During the field visit conducted by WDFW on June 30,2003, the nest was found to be in rather poor condition. The nest had suffered some recent damage, possibly from winds or from nesting activity. One adult eagle was observed perched along the shoreline in a Douglas fir tree northwest of the nest tree. A search for any young eaglets that may have prematurely fledged from the nest due to disturbance was completed. No young were located or heard in the vicinity of the nest tree. A primary feather from an eagle was found below the nest. The WDFW contacted the adjacent landowners to obtain more information about the Gardiner eagles. They reported that the eagles initiated construction of the nest in September of2002. The nest was apparently completed and nesting activity was observed during the spring last season. The landowners report that they observed the adult eagles frequently carrying prey items to the nest and heard young in the nest during May and June. It is possible that young were produced at the nest and fledged prior to the end of June. The WDFW observed eagles within the territory during various site visits last winter. The landowners to the west provided WDFW with some video footage ofthe eagle pair making repairs to the nest. The eagle pair has been back at the territory since December and were observed flying above the nest during a site visit conducted on March 17, 2004. The nest was once again found to be in poor conditio~ possibly due from a windstorm in early March. The nest will require some repair if nesting is to be attempted during the 2004 season. The WDFW is also aware of the possibility that the pair has constructed an alternate nest in the area. A review of the existing habitat within the Gardiner Bald Eagle Territory has been conducted during past aerial surveys and ground visits to the area The Discovery Bay vicinity contains some of the last remaining contiguous blocks of timbered land within east Jefferson County. Residential development has occurred along a high percentage of shoreline properties but much of the forested land in the area has not been harvested for timber within at least the last 50 years. Both young mature mixed forest and older mature coniferous forest are present within the territory. The dominant trees in the area are Douglas fir, western red cedar, western hemlock, grand fir, red alder, and big-leaf maple. Multi-layered canopies, well-developed shrub and forb communities, snags, numerous large logs and large live trees are some of the diverse habitats found within the mature forest. The bald eagle nesting stand and the surrounding area provide valuable habitat to many other wildlife species. The marine bluff area adjacent to remaining mature coniferous forest provides significant bald eagle perching and foraging habitat. Excellent foraging opportunities are present along the shoreline surrounding the bald eagle nest trees and many bald eagle observations have been documented in the Discovery Bay area. The habitat complexity of the bay, which includes estuarine and tidal flats, is preferred foraging grounds for the bald eagles. Both adult and sub-adult bald eagles are known to perch within the Discovery Bay vicinity during all months of the year. The WDFW has been monitoring various other bald eagle territories that are located in close proximity to Discovery Bay for many years. Margaret Campbell owns a 2.5 acre parcel of waterfront property within the newly documented Gardiner Bald Eagle Territory (Figure 3). The Campbell family has owned the parcel of property for 40 years. The property is located along Old Gardiner Road and is approximately 1000 feet in length, east to west. The width ofthe property along the waterfront and Old Gardiner Road is approximately 96 feet. The property served as an enjoyable day-use area for the Campbell family throughout their years of ownership. The lot is . presently undeveloped but some pre-development activities were initiated on the property many years ago. In 1968 the landowners received a private road crossing agreement from the railroad company and built a private road on the east side.ofthe proper:tr. This access road started ~t Old ~Q~~ an~D1.north I ____to the 1Janlc above_the shoreline" The flunily then conducted some cleanng 0 riiill p ",pg :.. iei':4!1o~lj construction of a home and storage building.

LJ J l.\ i h0 G -J:J.._: I W L~___."___,,.___~_---1 JEFFERSON COUNTY portion of the property was cleared of nearly all trees that were present. The trees previously present in the area consisted of a mix of Douglas fir, west,ern red cedar, and red alder. Mrs. Campbell conveyed that this area had been cleared at some time prior due to the size ofthe trees. Understory vegetation was also , removed when the clearing was conducted. Some limbing of conifer trees was conducted in order to achieve a water view. In 1993 a 120-foot water line was installed from Old Gardiner Road to the clearing on the property. The vegetation located within the 5 foot clearing limits for the water line was removed. At this time, the access road was widened and graveled. The building site area was again cleared of all alder and understory vegetation. This area now consists of mostly 10-year-old alder trees with a few scattered mature conifer trees. The southern 1/3 of the property contains a fairly dense stand of mature conifer trees. A pocket of other large mature conifer trees, consisting of Douglas fir, grand fir, and western red cedar, is located within 100 feet from the top of the banle. Some large alder and a few madrona trees are also present within this shoreline zone. Directly east of the property is a large undeveloped parcel that is densely forested with a mix of second growth conifer and hardwood trees. The property located directly to the west ofthe Campbell property contains an existing single-family residence. The northern 1/3 ofthis property was substantial cleared years ago when the property was developed. Numerous other residences are located in Gardiner along the western shore of Discovery Bay. The Campbell family had not specifically identified a development proposal for the property in the past years of ownership. Margaret Campbell had not initiated any development plans for the property. Unfortunately, Mr. Campbell passed away a few years ago and Margaret has now chosen to sell this special parcel of property. The newly documented Gardiner bald eagle Nest #1 is actually located on the Campbell property. The nest tree is located along the eastern property line, approXimately 50 feet south of the top of the bank (Figure 3). The mature Douglas fir and grand fir trees located on the property serve as perch trees for the eagle pair. There are also some trees on the property that are suitableto be potential alternate nest trees. Other significant eagle habitat that exists on the property, which is essential to protect, are the existing trees located around the nest tree_ Unfortunately, there is very little screening vegetation around the nest tree due to past clearing of the property. There is presently some screening provided by large alder trees located to the south of the nest tree. This nest is visible :from various locations on the property. In preparation for selling the property, the landowner initiated some brush clearing in June of2003 along the previously installed access road to the shoreline_ This activity, occurring below the nest tree during the eagle nesting season, concerned the neighbors and led to them contacting WDFW to report the nest. Margaret Campbell presently has her property on the market for sale. She has no intention of proceeding with any further development of the property. The real estate agent representing Margaret Campbell was notified by WDFW of the need to obtain a Bald Eagle Management Plan prior to any development of the property. Her sister-in-law, Mabel Campbell, is actually her listing agent for the sale of the property. The WDFW previously met on the property with Margaret and Mabel Campbell to discuss proposed development plans and potential impacts to the bald eagles. The landowner and real estate agent have been assured that development of the property must be allowed by the WDFW. Recommendations for the protection of bald eagle habitat on the property and the recommendation for timing restrictions during the nesting season were provided by WDFW. A line was flagged on the property to identify an area between the shoreline and any potential development. Only selective view clearing would be allowed within this zone. To assist any potential buyers with reviewing for future proposed development ofthe property, the landowner submitted a Site Plan Approval Advanced Detennination (SP AAD) application to the Jefferson County Department of Community Development. The application included a preliminary site develo ment ;mj;bat proposed.a-;::- driveway located in the lo.cation of.the p~eviously cleared access roa,d (Fi ~~~e[~W A)fp~t~\\l __proJ)?:~~ to const~ct a smgle-family reSIdence and a detach~~_~arage/wor ~ld~ ~e-pT01Je"rty, _ .'(F~gTIf~ ~~.\~_,____ A preIiiiliiiaiY septIc system was CleSigned and two drain field areas have I :, tifie~ I W 1~Ul"e ~;,.A 1\ \11,) /1 , U i\ ~,uv "J i LUU; \L:J \ L_______~__~ \ JEffERSON cour~l y __ OE<)T OF 'l~(1'JfX lH1TY Dr:\iELOPMtNT f. .:U;.IJ-"U..' "^. condition of the SP AAD approval was the completion of a Bald Eagle Management Plan (BE.MP) prior to any further clearing or development. On March 17, 2004, the WDFW met on site with potential buyers for the property. This plan is being drafted to serve as a document to provide to any potential purchasers of the Campbell property. The new owners of the property will need to have WDFW review their specific site development plan and obtain a new BEMP based on the conditions of this plan. The WDFW has granted approval for the construction of a single-fumi1y residence within the building envelope identified on the proposed site development plan submitted with the SP AAD Application. The WDFW has recognized that significant eagle habitat exists on the Campbell property. The bald eagle nest tree that is located on the property is protected by both state and federal laws. It is essential to protect the minimal buffer of trees located around the tree. The waterfront lot also contains critical perching habitat, which is used by eagles for foraging and protecting the nest site. The concern of the \VDFW is that previous adjacent land clearing has removed valuable buffering habitat around the nest tree and may have removed known bald eagle perch trees or potential nest trees. The clearing also increased the risk of blow-down to the nest tree and adjacent significant habitat. There is also concern that the proposed development and human disturbance could cause nest failure, reduced productivity over time, or abandonment of the territory. The WDFW is no longer requiring timing restrictions for heavy equipment operations or outside construction within 800 feet of a nest tree. The WDFW will, however, be working closely with the new purchaser to outline a development schedule that will minimize disturbance to nesting eagles. The purpose of this management plan is to allow for future development ofthe property while maintaining the long-term integrity of the Gardiner Bald Eagle Nesting Territory. It is essential to protect the nest tree and other valuable trees on the property. All perching habitat along the shoreline and potential future nest trees are significant and must be maintained. Timing restrictions are recommended to minimize disturbance during the bald eagle breeding and nesting season. The planting of seedling trees on the property will enhance the existing buffer on the nest tree, supplement screening of the home site, and provide future bald eagle habitat. CONDITIONS The following conditions apply to protect bald eagles and their habitat: 1) The grand fir tree located on the property that is documented to contain the Gardiner bald eagle Nest #1 shall not be damaged or removed. 2) The landowner agrees to assume any and all risks resulting from the presence of proposing a structure near the bald eagle nest tree and will not seek authorization to remove the tree. 3) The new purchaser of the property shall provide the WDFW with a proposed site development plan for the property. The WDFW shall review all proposed tree removal associated with the site plan prior to granting any development approval. 4) The proposal to install a new driveway and septic system on the property, as shown in the SP AAD application, shall be allowed (Figure 5). 5) The proposal to construct a single-family residence with a detached garage/workshop on the property as shown on the SP AAD application, shall be allowed (Figure 5).

(An effort should be made to protect the identified 24 inch diameter at 'breast height (dbh) Douglas fir tree and the 24 inch dbh grand :fir tree located within the proposed development area shown on the proposed site development plan - Figure 5). 7) All conifer trees shall be retained on the property. Exception: a) Danger trees may be removed if trees are identified as hazardous by a professional forester or certified arborist. A written report from the forester/arborist must be submitted to the WDFW before approval to remove the hazard trees is granted. A tree that presents imminent danger to the safety or property of individuals may be removed without a report. 8) The following specific conditions shall be allowed north of the flagged eagle line in order to achieve and maintain a water view: a) The removal of understory vegetation (in compliance with County regulations). b) The selective removal of deciduous trees and conifer trees < 6 inches in diameter at breast height (dbh).' c) The limbing of conifer trees> 6 inches dbh. No more than 30% ofthe live crown of a conifer tree shall be removed. d) The removal of selective limbs from the two maple clumps located SW of the nest tree. e) The removal of dead and dying trees. f) The landowner and WDFW shall meet on site to review the specific proposal to remove select shoreline trees and limbing for views prior to any tree alteration. *Special note - All other trees located north of the flagged line shall be retained to provide screening and buffering around the nest tree. 9) It is recommended that no heavy equipment operation, clearing, tree cutting, outside home construction, or burning shall occur during the bald eagle breeding and nesting season from February 1 - August 15 of any given year. Timing restrictions shall not be required for a given year ifit may be determined that the eagle pair are not actively nesting at the nest or within 800 feet of the property. Surveys to determine nesting status must be conducted by a qualified biologist. * Special note: The WDFW is no longer requiring timing restrictions but has requested that any new landowner work cooperatively to minimize disturbance during the nesting season. The landowner shall provide WDFW with a tentative construction schedule.

The new purchasers ofthe property should contact WDFW to finalize this draft plan prior to initiating any tree removal or development. JUSTIFICATION The landowner was granted approval to develop within 400 feet of an identified bald eagle nest tree due to the fact that the tree containing the nest is located on the Campbell property. The WDFW recognizes that the value of this waterfront property would be significantly decreased if the landowner were required to construct a home in the southern Y:z ofthe property. The WDFW will work closely with the purchaser of the property to allow for the minimal removal of bald eagle habitat for any proposed development. The human tolerance level of the Gardiner eagle pair is relatively unknown since the nest is quite new. There is an existing home within 300 feet of the nest tree to the west but little other human activity in the area. Timing restrictions are recommended for development and some monitoring of nesting activity may occur during proposed site clearing and heavy equipment wor.tc. The landowner will be planting conifer trees to provide screening and improve the bald eagle habitat. DURATION OF PROTECTION This plan applies to the landowner who signs the plan_ If the ownership changes, the new landowner may sign the plan or request a new one to reflect a change in land use. Since eagles return to the same traditional use areas each year, the conditions of this plan shall apply indefinitely unless a breeding territory has been unoccupied for 5 consecutive years. If the breeding territory is unoccupied for 5 consecutive years, then the WDFW biologist and the landowner should evaluate the continued need for protection of the bald eagle habitat. If an eagle does not show signs of incubating eggs by May 1, then the recommended timing restrictions do not apply for that year. Surveys shall be done by a qualified wildlife biologist. Please contact the WDFW if the eagles change the location of their nest. Do not assume that the conditions '---:ofthiSplan no longer-apply~ ..-..-- --,-- REVIEW AND AMENDMENT This plan will be subject to the following review and amendment procedures. The plan may be reviewed periodically by the Washington Department ofFish and Wildlife (WDFW) to determine whether: 1) the plan requires amendment in response to changing eagle and landowner circunistances; or, 2) the terms of the plan comply with applicable laws and regulations; or, 3) the parties to.the plan are complying with its terms. APPEAL PROCEDURE In addition to the provisions of WAC 232-12-292(7.1)-(7.3), the landowner may request a fonnal appeal of WDFW actions according to the Administrative Procedures Act, Chapter 34.05 RCW, and the Model Rilles of Procedure, Chapter 10.08 WAC. Such a request shall be filed with the Departmentwithin 20 ,days of receipt ofthe contested WDFW decision. The appeal request shall clearly state the relief sought and the grounds for the appeal. COMPLIANCE Failure to comply with this plan constitutes a misdemeanor as set forth in RCW 77.15.130. However, compliance with this plan does not ensure compliance with the Endangered Species Act or other federal, state, or local laws. This plan applies only to the proposed land use listed above. Any other proposals may be subject to a different set of conditions. It is the landowner's responsibility to notify the Washington Department ofFish and Wildlife (WDFW) of any new proposed land use activities.
