Firearms used on the 40 yd. range include Pistols, Pistol-caliber carbines and Rim-fire rifles. No rifle-caliber handguns allowed on this range. Specific procedures for the 40 yd. range are on the bottom of this page. 50 YARD PISTOL RANGE: All hand guns and rifles, and any shot gun and loads are allowed. Use only paper targets using the target backers provided. You can shoot down range if you're the first on the range, then everyone shoots down range. No steel targets or silhouettes are allowed except at special events. RIFLE RANGE: Rifles, Rifle caliber pistols and Rim-fire rifle only on this range. No pistol caliber pistol, pistol caliber carbine or rim-fire pistols on this range. Ammunition up to and including 50 caliber BMG and Black powder firearms are permitted. 50 caliber BMG may use position #8 (far right side of the range). Only paper targets installed on the backers provided by the range are allowed. No portable target stands or ground targets allowed on this range. LONG RANGE RIFLE: 200· and 300-yard benches are open for long range on Tuesday and Friday mornings from 10:00AM to 12:00AM exclusively. Shooters can shoot from 200 yds. or 300 yds. but not both at the same time. No portable target stands or ground targets allowed. Long range shooting on the right side of the road only. 3J . SHOTGUN RANGE: Shotguns only. No shot larger than 7 % lead target load. Shot velocity not to exceed 1200 FPS. 1. J. ARCHERY WILDERNESS TRAIL: No firearms allowed on the archery range or trail. Once you start. continue to the end. Do not turn back there maybe someone behind you. ADDITIONAL RANGE PROCEDURES 40 YARD Pistol Range -There are three separate bays. At the end of each fence. a flagpole has been attached with a pulley system to be used to raise a red flag when a shooter is shooting down range. Any time a shooter is down range using any one of the three separate bays, both red flags are to be raised. This will indicate that the range is "hot" and firing is no longer allowed from the covered bench, and no firearms are to be handled at the existing fire line which is under the shed roof. All other shooters need to shoot down-range if flags are up. General usage of 40 Yard Pistol Range: Any member or non-member and/or guest who has signed a wavier and paid his or her fees, arrives at 40 Yard Pistol Range prior to any other shooters and wishes to shoot from a down-range position (not at the bench -closer to the main impact beam), will be responsible for raising the red flags on each fence prior to setting up any targets. This will give a clear indication that someone is down range getting ready to begin shooting. A member or non-member who arrives at the 40 Yard Pistol range and sees the red flags are up and wishes to shoot from a firing line at the bench ( under the shed roof), that person should move to 50 Yard Pistol Range. If SO Yard Pistol Range is full and there is no room to accommodate the member and his or her guest, then they can return to 40 Yard Pistol Range and safely communicate to the down range shooter that they would also like to use a part of the range. ALL MEMBERS AND GUESTS must read and sign these rules as well as a Waiver, Release of Liability, and Indemnity agreement before using the range.

I l JEFFERSON COUNTY SPORTSMEN'S ASSOCIATION COMMERCIAL SHOOTING FACILITY ENVIRONEMNTAL PLAN ENVIRONMENT Chapter Ill: Best Man~ement Practices (BMPs) For Outdoor Ranges 3.0 Background I To operate an outdoor range that is environmentally protective requires implementing an integrated lead man agement program, which incorporates a variety of appropriate BMPs. These BMPs create a four step approach to lead management • Step 1 -Control and contain lead bullets and bullet fragments ~ Step 2 -Prevent migration of lead to the subsurface and surrounding surface water bodies ~ Step 3 -Remove the lead from the range and recycle ~ Step 4 -Documenting activities and keeping records An effective lead management program requires implementing and evaluating BMPs from each of the fou r steps Identified above and illustrated as Figure 3-1. The BMPs discussed in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 should not be considered alternatives to lead reclamation, but rather Step 1 Step2 Control a,nd Contain (Section 3.1) Pri:vent.

It is important to note that the cost and complexity of these BMPs vary significantly. It is your range's individual characteristics that will determine which BMPs should be implemented. The specific BMPs are described more fully below. 3.1 Bullet and Shot Containment Techniques (Step 1) 3.1.1 Bullet Containment Knowing where spent lead is allows the appropriate BMP to be used. The single most effective BMP for managing lead in these areas is by bullet containment. Owners/operators should employ a containment system that allows for the maximum containment of lead on-site. The containment systems mentioned in this section are for reference only. Each containment design for a range is site specific. Each owner/operator must look at the various factors in determining which containment system is best for his or her range. Some factors include: overhead, cost of installation, maintenance (e.g., creation of lead dust from steel containment systems). Range owner/operators should consult with various contractors to determine which containment system is best for their range.

Containing bullets and bullet fragments is critical to successfully managing lead. There are a variety of containment device options available that serve as BMPs to control lead. The principle behind all of them is trapping and containing the actual bullet. They include: > Earthen Berms and Backstops ~ Sand Traps > Steel Traps > Lamella or Rubber Granule Traps > Shock Absorbing Concrete For each type of trap, design variations have been developed to fit the specific needs of an individual range. Below are discussions of each general category of trap. Some bullet containment devices are so comprehensive that they virtually eliminate lead's contact with the environment. However, it is important to discuss all types of bullet containment devices because they are part of comprehensive BMPs for managing lead at rifle and pistol ranges. EPA does not endorse any bullet containment design as being "better" than another. Different containment designs attempt to eliminate lead's contact with the environment, however, additional BMPs may be required for lead management. EPA recommends that you discuss your range's bullet containment needs with a variety of vendors before deciding what type of containment device to use. This manual does identify the possible advantages and disadvantages associated with each containment device in Table 3-1, at the bacl< of this chapter. Earthen Berms and Backstops Perhaps the most common bullet containment system at rifle and pistol ranges is the earthen BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges backstop (earthen material, i.e., sand, soil, etc., which is located directly behind the targets). The earthen backstop is generally between 15 and 20 feet high with a recommended slope as steep as possible1• In many instances, backstops may be naturally occurring hillsides. When using an earthen berm or backstop, ensure that the uppermost layer (to a depth of one to two feet) exposed to the shooting activity is free of large rocks and other debris. These materials tend to increase ricochet and bullet fragmentation, which wm. in turn, make lead reclamation activities more difficult, not to mention possible safety issues. Removal of lead from earthen backstops may require lengthy reclamation (see Section 3.3) of the soil to remove the lead. Continued use of the backstop without removing the lead may result in increased ricochet of bullets and fragments. In addition, the backstop may lose its slope integrity because of "impact pockets" that develop. Once the lead has been removed from the earthen backstop, the soil can be placed back on the range and used again. Adding lime and phosphate during the rebuilding process is recommended as appropriate (see Section 3.2). However, other bullet containment techniques, including those listed below, should be considered prior to reestablishing an earthen backstop. Sand Traps A variation of the earthen backstop is the sand trap. Sand traps range from those that are simply mounds of sand or soil located directly behind the bullet targets, which serve as backstops to a sand trap that employs a system designed to contain, collect and control lead and contact water. This sand trap uses a grade of sand that is ballistically acceptable. Regular maintenance must be performed to remove larger particles (bullets) from the impact area. These traps are placed so that bullets fired across the range pass through the targets and become embedded in the sand. These traps are typically 15 to 20 feet high with a slope as 1. Natlonal Rifle Association, "The NRA Range Source Book: A Guide to Planning and Construction:· June 1998 Chapter Ill • Page 111-2 ·-'----- '- steep as possible. The most important design criterion for these traps is that the uppermost layer (to a depth of 1 to 2 feet) be free of large rocks and other debris to reduce ricochet and bullet fragmentation, and to facilitate reclamation efforts. There may also be an impermeable layer (e.g., clay or liner) under the sand to prevent lead from contacting the soil underlaying the trap. Sand traps come in various designs and levels of complexity. The sand trap may be ballistic grade sand contained in a high backstop, or a more complex "Pit and Plate" system. The Pit and Plate system uses an angled, steel deflection plate cover that helps to direct bullets and bullet fragments to the top layer of sand only. Some of the more sophisticated sand traps incorporate lead recovery devices. However, the Pit and Plate may increase the surface-to-mass ratio of the bullet splatter and, therefore, may increase environmental risk of lead migration. Regardless of the type of sand trap that is used, the traps become saturated with bullets/bullet fragments. Once this happens, the sand must be sifted (see Section 3.3) to remove the bullets. The recovered bullets can then be sold to a lead recycler (this Is discussed in more detail later in the chapter). After sifting, the sand can be returned to the trap. Continued use of the t,ap, without removing the lead, may result in an increased risk of ricocheting off the backstop . and thus creating an increased safety hazard. Furthermore, the sand trap will become unstable over time. sand traps may be located over an impermeable liner, to prevent lead from contacting soil underlying the trap. This will provide additional protection to soil and groundwater. Steel Traps Steel traps are located directly behind the targets so that expended bullets, along with bullet particles. are directed into some form of deceleration chamber. Once inside the chamber, the bullets decelerate until the bullets/ bullet particles fall into collection trays at the bottom of the deceleration chamber. When the BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges trap is full, or on a more frequent basis, the spent lead can easily be reclaimed for recycling. With some steel traps, expended lead bullets may not come in direct contact with soils, thereby possibly minimizing lead's contact with the environment. Consequently, the need for other BMPs (e.g., lime spreading, and/or engineering controls), such as those required at ranges with unlined earthen backstops or unlined sand traps, may be avoided if this trap design is selected for the range's bullet containment device. In addition, bullet removal is somewhat easier than from a sand trap, and may only require emptying the bucket or tray containing the bullets and/or bullet fragments. However, an increase of lead dust and fragmented lead may be an additional environmental concern. Therefore, understanding the amount of lead dust and fragments is important to a successful lead management program. Also, some steel trap designs are not intended for shooting at different angles, therefore limiting the shooter to shooting straight on (no action shooting). As with sand traps, steel traps vary in design and complexity. For example, the Escalator Trap has an upward sloping deflection plate that directs bullets into a spiral containment area at 1he top. The Vertical Swirl Trap is a modular, free standing trap with four steel pfates that tunnel the bullets into a vertical aperture in which they spin, decelerate, and become trapped in a bullet collection container. The Wet Passive Bullet Trap is equipped with steel deflection plates that slope both upward and downward. The upwardly sloped deflection plate is covered with an oil/water mixture to help reduce. the occurrence of ricochet and bullet fragmentation. The bullet follows its own path in the round deceleration chamber for bullet recycling. Lamella and Rubber Granule Traps The Lamella Trap uses tightly-hanging, vertical strips of rubber with a steel backing to stop bullets. This trap is located directly behind the targets and, in many cases, the targets may actually be mounted to the trap. Lead removal Chapter Ill -Page 111-3 requires mining the bullets from the rubber. The Rubber' Granule Trap uses shredded rubber granules, housed between a solid rubber front and a steel backing, to stop bullets once they pass through the target. For both traps, the bullets remain intact, thus eliminating lead dust and preventing lead and jacket back splatter. Depending on the design of the rubber trap, the bullet either remains embedded in the rubber strip or falls to the bottom of the trap, from which the bullets are removed for recycling. These traps, when properly installed, are intended to increase safety by decreasing the occurrence of back splatter and eliminating the introduction of the lead dust into the air and ground. However, there are several concerns over their use, since they may: ~ require additional maintenance; ~ in some cases, present a fire threat under extremely high volume use (due to heat from friction created upon bullet impact); ~ not withstand weather elements over the long term; and ., cause the rubber particles to melt to the lead bullets, making reclamation more difficult. With the availability of fire-resistant rubber and gels (see Appendix A), these issues are becom- ing less of a concern than in earlier models. Shock Absorbing Concrete In addition to the bullet containment devices discussed above, there are new designs and innovations continually being developed. One of these innovative bullet containment devices is Shock Absorbing Concrete (SACON). SACON, which has been used as a bullet containment device since the 1980s and was extensively field tested by the military, has become commercially available in the past several years as a backstop materlal for small arms ranges. For conventional rifle and pistol ranges, SACON may provide a means to easily reclaim lead. Additionally, crushed, lead-free SACON can be recycled (recasted) after bullet fragments have been removed by adding it to other concrete mixtures for use as sidewalks, curbs, etc. BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges 3.1.2 Shot Containment Reducing the Shotfall Zone Unlike rifle and pistol ranges, the area impacted by lead shot fired at trap, skeet and sporting clays ranges is spread out and remains primarily on the surface. Knowing where spent lead is allows the appropriate BMP to be used. The single most effective BMP for managing lead in these areas is reducing shotfall zones. Concentrating the lead shot in a smaller area by modifying the shooting direction facilitates lead management by providing a smaller and more dense area of lead to both manage in-place and reclaim, thereby making the management and reclamation process simpler and more effective. Sport.jog Clays courses Technologies have been developed to assist in reducing the range size of trap and skeet, and sporting clays facilities. The National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) supports and promotes the Five-Stand Sporting Clays compact course design for shooting sporting clay targets, invented by Raymond Forman of Clay-Sport International, Cochrane, Alberta, Canada. The targets are directed over a smaller area than in English Style Sporting Clays (conventional sporting clays). It was originally designed to be overlaid on a conventional trap or skeet field and to be an alternative to earlier designs, which cover a much larger area. Another design, known as the National Rifle Association (NRA) Clays, is a portable target throwing unit which concentrates 15 rail- mounted machines on a two-story flatbed trailer. The NRA has also developed "compact sporting:' which is specifically for sporting clay facilities. This practice alters the angle that the target is thrown to concentrate the shotfall zone. Skeet Fields The typical single skeet field has a shotfall zone that is fan-shaped. For skeet fields with multiple stands side-by-side, the shotfall zones would overlap creating a shotfall zone that has a concentration of shot near the center of the fan, Chapter Ill -Page 111-4 '-- '-· ,_ Trap Fields One way to reduce the shotfall zone at trap fields is to build the fields at an angle to one another. This will make the shape of the shooting dispersal pattern smaller and more concentrated. However, if you do decide to choose this option, be aware of safety issues when designing the overlapping shotfall zones. For a range with only one trap field, one way to minimize the shotfall zone is to keep trap machines set in as few holes as possible (e.g., the number two or three hole setting). This reduces the area of lead concentration by limiting the angles for pigeon throwing, and therefore the area for lead shot fall. However, when two or more trap fields are positioned side by side, the shotfall zone will be continuous regardless of the "hole" setting. Shot curtains Another method to consider for concentrating lead shot is the use of a shot curtain. This device is emerging as a potentially effective tool to keep lead shot out of selected areas of the range and, thereby, reduce the size of the shotfall zone and corresponding cost of reclamation. Different designs and material have been utilized in shot curtains and a number are in operation. The effectiveness of shot curtains is site specific and their long term viability and expense have yet to be fully determined. 3.2 BMPs to Prevent Lead Migration (Step 2) I This section discusses BMPs for preventing lead migration. These BMPs include: • Monitoring and adjusting soil pH > Immobilizing lead > Controlling runoff These BMPs are important for all outdoor ranges. BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges 3.2.1 Monitoring and Adjusting Soil pH and Binding Lead Lime Addition The BMP for monitoring and adjusting soil pH is an important range program that can effect lead migration. Of particular concern are soils with low pH values (I.e., acidic conditions), because lead mobility Increases in acidic conditions since the acid of the soils contributes to the lead break down. The ideal soil pH value for shooting ranges js between 6.5 and 8.5. This BMP is important because many soils in the eastern United States have pH values lower than 6.2 To determine the pH of your soil, purchase a pH meter at a lawn and garden center. The pH meters are relatively inexpensive but valuable tools in the management of lead at your range. If the soil pH Is determined to be below 6, the pH should be raised by spreading lime. It is recommended that the pH be checked annually. One way to control lead migration Is by spreading lime around the earthen backstops, sand traps, trap and skeet shotfall zones, sporting clays courses and any other areas where the bullets/shots or lead fragments/dust accumulate. For example, lead mobilized in rainwater from the lead that spatters in front of backstops after bullet impacts can be effectively controlled by extending a limestone sand layer out about 15 feet in front of the backstop. Likewise, spreading lime over the shotfall zone will help to raise the pH of the very top soil layer to a pH closer to ideal levels and reduce the migration potential of lead. This is an easy, low cost method. Spreading lime neutralizes the acidic soils, thus minimizing the potential for the lead to <:iegrade. Lime can be easily spread by using a lawn fertilizer drop spreader available at any lawn and garden center. Smaller forms of limestone (powdered, pelletized, and granular) are better suited 2 National Shooting Sports Foundation, "Environ- mental Aspects of Construction and Management of Outdoor Shooting Ranges:• June 1997 Chapter Ill -Page 111-5 because they dissolve and enter the soil more quickly then larger forms. However, the smaller forms of lime must be replenished more often. Conversely I limestone rock dissolves more slowly but does not need to be replenished as often. The larger rock form is better suited for drainage ditches, where it can decrease lead mobility by raising the pH of the storm water runoff. Another way to control lead migration in earthen backstops is to break the capillarity within the base of the backstop. Most porosity In the soil material used in backstop is of capillary size, and, as a result, water is pulled upward into a capilla,y fringe within the base of the backstop. The height to which the water will rise in an earthen backstop depends on the soil material in the backstop. Water will rise more then 6 feet in clay, 3.3 feet in silt, 1.3 feet in fine sand. 5 inches in coarse sand, and only 2 inches in gravel. Because of capillarity, the spent bullets may be in contact with acidic rainwater for a longer period of time, hence more lead is dissolved. Breaking the capillarity by adding a layer of limestone or gravel to the base of the backstop should reduce the rate of deterioration of spent bullets, the erosion of the backstop, and the amount of lead going into solution in the water in the backstop. Also, any lead dissolved should precipitate out of solution as the acids are neutralized and the pH raised from the water passing through and reacting with the limestone. Lime spreading is an especially important method for implementing this BMP at sporting clays ranges where heavily wooded areas are BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges less accessible to conventional lead removaJ equipment. These types of ranges also tend to have more detritus (e.g., leaves, twigs, etc.) on the ground, which can increase soil acidity as they decompose. In these areas, semiannual monitoring of the soil pH levels is suggested. Spreading bags of 50 pounds (at ranges with sandy soils) or 100 pounds (at ranges with clayey soils) per 1,000 square feet of range will raise the pH approximately one pH unit for a period of between one and four years, respectively. The market price of lime in either the granular or pelletized form commonly ranges from approximately $2.00 to $4.00 per fifty pound bag. Table 3-2 provides information for raising pH levels of clay soils in temperate climates (i.e., Mid-Atlantic/Northeast). Additional information on the amount of lime to apply may also be found on the bags of the purchased lime and/or from the local lawn and garden center. It should be noted that if the soil pH is below 4.5, the addition of lime may only raise the soil pH to approximately 5. In this situation, other BMPs should be used as well. If the soil pH is above the ideal range upper value (8.5), do not add lime. Adding lime to a soil of this pH could result in mobilization of the lead. Lime spreading may be done at anytime during the year. except when the ground is frozen. Additionally, it is important to remember to monitor the soil pH annually. as the effectiveness of the lime decreases over time. Additional routine applications will be necessary throughout the life span of most ranges. • Table 3-2 -Cal~ulating Weight of Lime to Increase Soil pH Values* ' Current pH 4.0 4.3 4.5 4.8 5.0 5.5 Desired 5.t\MU> 14 11 8 5 3 - pH 6.5-8.5 -- - 20 17 11 * Lime requirements stated as pounds of lime/100 square foot of problem area for clay soils in temperate climates (i.e., Mid"Atlantic/Northeast US). 6.0 6.5 - - 7 - Chapter Ill -Page 111-6 '-- •.._ Phosphate Addition In addition to lime spreading, another way to control lead migration is phosphate spreading. This method is recommended where lead is widely dispersed in range soils, a range is closing, or there is a high potential for vertical lead transport to groundwater (e.g., low soil pH, shallow water table). Under these circumstances, range soils may benefit from phosphate treatment. Unlike lime spreading, the main purpose of phosphate spreading is not to adjust soil pH but to bind the lead particles. This process also decreases the potential amount of lead that can migrate off ~site or into the subsurface. Phosphate spreading can be done either separately or in conjunction with lime spreading. Generally, 15 to 20 pounds of phosphate per 1,000 square feet will effectively control the lead. Phosphate spreading is especially recommended for sporting clays ranges and those parts of ranges not easily accessible by reclamation equipment. Phosphate spreading should be repeated frequently during the range's lifetime. See pilot testing under "Other Ways to Bind Lead" below for proper frequency for replacing phosphate. You can purchase phosphate either in its pure form. as phosphate rock, or as lawn fertilizer. The average lawn fertilizer costs approximately $7.00 per 40 pound bag. If you purchase lawn fertilizer, remember to check the bag for the actual percentage of phosphate. Most fertilizers contain 25% phosphate, so that if you purchase a 40 pound bag of fertilizer that contains 25% phosphate (i.e,. 10 pounds of phosphate) you will need to spread so pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet of the backstop. A typical fertilizer drop spreader can be used for distributing the phosphate. Like lime, phosphate should not be spread when the ground is frozen. In addition, it is not advised to use phosphate near water bodies since it contributes to atgal blooms. Rock phosphate is a better choice it water is nearby. BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges Other Ways to Bind Lead Although it may be possible to minimize lead's mobility by spreading fertilizers that contain phosphate at impacted areas of the range, a more comprehensive procedure for immobilizing leachable lead in soils, by using pure phosphate in rock form or a ground phosphate rock [Triple Super Phosphate (TSP)], was developed and patented by the U.S. EPA/Ohio State University Research Foundation and RHEOX, Inc. This procedure used a three step approach to minimize lead's mobility. The first step was to identify the boundaries of the area of the range to be treated. This included not only determining the length and width of the range area, but also the depth of lead within the area. Depth was determined by taking sample cores of the area, which also identified "hot spots" where lead accumulation was greatest. Once the area was identified, the second step was to treat the area with TSP. Pure phosphate rock was used rather then fertilizers, as this phosphate is insoluble in water and will not cause an increase in phosphate runoff. In this step, pilot testing was conducted. Here, various amounts (in increasing percentages by weight) of TSP were added to the affected soil areas, then the area was tested according to an EPA test method that identified the amount of leachable lead in a given soil sample. This test is called the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure, or TCLP. Separate TCLP testing of the range's hot spots was conducted. upon completion of the pilot testing, which determined the amount of TSP needed at the range, the third step was to begin actual treatment of the range. Where the depth of the lead accumulation was shallow (less than two feet). then standard yard equipment, such as tillers, seed/fertilizer spreaders, and plows were used to mix TSP with the affected soil. Where the affected area's lead accumulation was deeper than two feet, an auger was required to mix the TSP with the affected soil. Random testing of the range ensured the effectiveness of the treatment level. Chapter Ill -Page m-7 3.2.2 ~ontrolling Runoff The BMPs for controlling soil erosion and surface water runoff are important to preventing lead from migrating off-site. There are two factors that influence the amount of lead transported off-site by sutface water runoff: the amount of lead fragments left on the range and the velocity of the runoff. The velocity of the water can successfully be controlled at outdoor ranges by: (1) using vegetative, organic, removable and/or permanent ground covers; and (2) implementing engineered controls which slow down surface water runoff and prevent or minimize the chances of lead migrating off-site. Bear in mind that safety considerations and potential ricochets need to be considered when implementing any engineered controls. Vegetative Ground Cover Planting vegetative ground cover (such as grass) is an important and easy erosion control method. Vegetation provides several benefits by minimizing the amount of lead that will run off the land sutface during heavy rainfall. It is important to use a mixture of grass seeds to ensure that the cover will last into the future (i.e .• annual rye grass lasts one year and dies and perennial rye grass lasts three to four years, then dies off). Fescue grasses form useful mats that are effective in controlling erosion. Ground cover absorbs rainwater, which reduces the amount of water the lead is in contact with, as well as the time that the lead is in contact with the water. Furthermore, the ground cover will divert and slow down surface water runoff, thus helping to prevent lead from migrating off- site. Grasses yield the greatest benefit at rifle and pistol ranges where the bullet impact areas are sloped, and water runoff and soil erosion may be more likely. Specific recommendations are to: ~ Utilize quick growing turf grass (such as fescue and rye grass) for the grass covering BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges of backstops, which can be removed prior to reclamation and replanted thereafter; ~ Avoid vegetation that attracts birds and other wildlife to prevent potential ingestion of lead by wildlife; and > Use grass to direct surface water drainage away from the target area (e.g., planting them at the top of the backstop or sand trap). This will minimize the water's contact with lead bullet fragments, minimizing the potential for lead migration. Grass is not impermeable; however, it does slow down the rate of flow and reduce the amount of lead entering the soil via rainwater. Remember, grass requires periodic maintenance (i.e., mowing) to maintain its effectiveness as well as for aesthetic reasons. Mulches and Compost Mulches and composts can reduce the amount of water that comes in contact with the lead fragments. In addition, mulches and compost contain hermic acid, which is a natural lead chelating agent that actually sorbs lead out of solution and reduces its mobility. At a minimum, the material should be two inches thick. These materials can be spread over any impacted area and/or low lying areas where runoff and lead may accumulate. Like vegetative covers, organic surface covers are not impermeable. In addition, the organic material needs periodic replacement to maintain effectiveness and aesthetic integrity. Furthermore, these materials should be removed prior to any lead removal event, as they may impede sifting or screening. Note that these materials tend to be acidic (especially durlng decomposition), so, if low pH is a concern at your range, this option may not be appropriate. Again, however, lime may be used to control pH (see Section 3.1.1) Surface covers Removable Surface Covers Removable surface covers may be effective at outdoor trap and skeet ranges. In this case, impermeable materials (e.g., plastic liners) are Chapter Ill -Page 111-8 '-· placed over the shotfall zone during non-use periods. This provides the range with two benefits during periods of rainfall: (1) the shotfall zone is protected from erosion; and (2) the spent lead shot is contained in the shotfall zone and does not come in contact with rainwater. permanent surface Covers For outdoor rifle and pistol ranges, impact backstops and target areas can also be covered with roofed covers or other permanent covers to prevent rainwater from contacting berms. However, this method may be less desirable because of the cost to Install the roof, which must be carefully designed to avoid safety issues with ricochets, etc. For shotgun and other ranges, synthetic liners (e.g., asphalt, AstroturfTM, rubber, other synthetic liners) can also be used beneath the shotfall zone to effectively prevent rainwater or runoff from filtering through lead and lead contaminated soil. Synthetic liners will generate increased runoff, which must be managed, however. No single type of liner is suitable for all situations based on site characteristics. Theretore, liners must be chosen on a site- specific basis, bearing in mind the site's unique characteristics, such as soil type, pH level, rainfall Intensity, organic content of soil, and surface water drainage patterns. Engineered Runoff controls Runoff control may be of greatest concern when a range Is located in an arei;l of heavy annual rainfall because of an increased risk of lead migration due to heavy rainfall events. A "hard" engineered runoff control may be needed in this situation. A heavy rainfall event is defined as rainfall that occurs at such a rate that it cannot be absorbed into the ground and causes an increase in the volume and velocity of surface runoff. The impacts of rainfall are greater in rolling or sloped terrain (increases velocity of runoff) or where sulface water bodies are located on, or immediately adjacent to, the range. BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges Examples of "hard" controls include: ~ Filter beds ~ containment Traps and Detention Ponds ~ Dams and Dikes ~ Ground Contouring. Designing and implementing these "hard" engineering controls may require the assistance of a licensed professional civil engineer. They are included in this manual to offer the reader a general understanding of these BMP options. However, this manual does not offer specific instructions for construction and operation of these controls. For information about designing and implementing any of these controls, or assistance with other range design questions, contact a licensed professional civil engineer having applicable experience or the NRA Range Department, at (800) 672-3888, ext. 1417. The National Sports Shooting Foundation (NSSF) may be contacted at (203) 426-1320 for specific references regarding the use and design of these controls. Filter Beds Filter beds are engineering controls built into an outdoor range to collect and filter surface water runoff from the target range. The collected runoff water is routed to a filtering system, which screens out larger lead particles, raises the pH of the water (thus reducing the potential for further lead dissolution), and drains the water from the range area. This technique may not completely prevent lead from entering the subsurface, since lead bullets, fragments and large particles may still remain on the range. Filter beds should be established at the base of the bat:kstop (see Figure 3-2). In addition to mitigating off-site migration, the filter beds work to raise the pH of the rainwater, which has fallen on the target range, to reduce lead dissolution, and to strain small lead particles out of the rainwater. The filters typically consist of two layers: a fine-grained sand bed underlain by limestone gravel or other neutralization material. By design, the backstops and berms direct the runoff so that it drains from the range to the filters. The collected water then soaks through the top sand layer into the neutralization material, Chapter Ill -Page 111-9 Serm/Baoketop ,j, / . . Umilatonel --~"" Gravel Layer BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges l Perforated Pipe Figure 3-2 -Sample FIiter Bed System (Adapted from Proceedings for National Shoodng, Range Symposium, October 17-19, 1993, Nonh American Hunting Club and Wildlife Forever) which raises the pH of the filtrate. The lead particles in the rainwater are collected on the sand, while the pH-adjusted water drains through the filter to a pertorated drainage pipe located within the limestone gravel. Filter beds are designed to capture fine particles of lead transported in surface water runoff. They are not designed to capture bullets. The operation and maintenance requirements of filter beds are minimal. Maintenance activity is limited to periodic removal of debris (such as litter, leaves, etc.) and occasional replenishment of the limestone. The use of filter beds is most effective on sites with open, rolling terrain where surface water runoff is directed to them. At existing rifle and pistol ranges, a limited system of trenches and filters can be installed at the base of natural soil backstops or at natural drainage depressions. containment Traps and Detention Ponds Containment traps and detention ponds are designed to settle out lead particles during heavy rainfall. Typically, they are depressions or holes in the range's drainage paths. Here, the lead-containing runoff passes through the trap or pond, allowing the lead bullet fragments . to settle out. Vegetative cover can be placed in the drainage path to increase the effectiveness of containment traps and ponds by further reducing the velocity of runoff and allowing for more lead fragments to settle from the runoff. It is important to regularly collect the lead and send this lead-to a recycler. Dams and Pikes At shotgun ranges, dams and dikes can also be used to reduce the Velocity of surface water runoff. Dams and dikes must be positioned perpendicular to the direction of runoff to slow the flow of surface water runoff. To accomplish this, determine the direction of the range's surface water runoff. This will be particularly obvious at ranges with sloped terrain. The dams or dikes should be constructed using mounds of dirt that are approximately a foot high. These mounds should transect the entire range perpendicular to the stormwater runoff direction. ' These runoff controls are most important at ranges at which off ·~ite runoff is a potential problem, such as ranges where the lead accumulation areas are located upgradient of a surface water body or an adjacent property. Since lead particles are heavier than most other suspended particles, slowing the velocity of surface water runoff can reduce the amount of lead transported in runoff. Chapter Ill· Page m-10 ·- ·~- ) Ground Contouring Another mechanism to slow runoff and prevent lead from being transported off site is ground contouring. By altering drainage patterns. the velocity of the runoff can be reduced. Furthermore, in areas where pH is high (resulting in a lower potential for lead dissolution), the soil can be graded or aerated to increase the infiltration rate of precipitation, so that rainwater is more easily absorbed into the soil. This slows down or prevents surface water runoff and off-site migration. It should be pointed out that this design, in effect, collects lead in the surface soils. Therefore, range operation and maintenance plans should include lead reclamation as well as adjusting the pH. and adding phosphate. ,! 3.3 1,().. Lead Removal and Recycling! (Step 3) To successfully mir:,imize lead migration, the most important BMP for lead management is lead reclamation. Implementing a regular BMP for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges reclamation program will allow you to avoid expensive remediation and potential litigation costs. Ranges in regions with high precipitation and/or with acidic soil conditions may require more frequent lead recovery since the potential for lead migration is greater. In regions with little precipitation and/or where the soil is somewhat alkaline, spent bullets may be allowed to accumulate on the soil for a longer time between reclamation events. Jt should be noted that to ensure that lead is not considered "discarded" or "abandoned" on your range within the meaning of the RCRA statute (i.e., a hazardous waste), periodic lead removal activities should be planned for and conducted. This typically requires one or more of the following: ~ Hand Raking and Sifting ~ Screening ~ Vacuuming ~ Soil Washing (Wet Screening, Gravity Separation, Pneumatic Separation) These methods are discussed in detail below. Figure 3-3 provides examples of common lead reclamation equipment. Figure 3.3 -Examples of Common Lead Reclamation Equipment Example of final separation device (Patented Pneumatic Separation Unit) used with a Shaker System. Courtesy of MARCOR. Example of shaker system. ~~~· Courtesy of National Range Recovery Chapter Ill -Page 111-11 Once the soil has been raked and collected, pass it through a standard 3/16 Inch screen to remove the large particles. This process will al.low the lead $hot sized particles to pass through the.screen. The sifted material (those not captured by the 3/.16 inch screen) should be passed through a 5/100 inch screen to capture the lead and lead fragments. This process will also allow sand and other small se.diment to pass through the screen. Screens can be purchased at many local hardware stores. The screens should be mounted on a frame for support. The frame size will vary based on the technique used by each range. For example; if shot reC.lamation is known as a screening· machine ( also referred to as a mobile shaker. gravel sizer, or potato slier). This aev1ce uses c. series of stacked vibrating screens (usually tWo screens) of different mesh sizes and allows the user to sift the lead shot-containing soil [gathered by hand raking , sweeping, or vacuuming (discussed above)). The uppermost screen (approximately 3/16 inch mesh) collects larger than lead shot particles, and allows the smaller particles to pass through to the second screen. The second screen (approximately 5/ 100 inch mesh) captures lead shot, while allowing smaller particles to pass through to the ground. The lead shot is then conveyed to a Chapter Ill -Page 111-12 ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP PLAN Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Port Townsend, Washington Prepared for: ) Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association 112 Gun Club Road Port Townsend, Washington 98368 Prepared by: URS Corporation 111 SW Columbia, Suite 1500 Portland, Oregon 97201 (503) 222. 7200 March 2015 Project No. 25698244 I Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan March 5, 2015 Project No. 25698244 Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association 112 Gun Club Road Port Townsend, Washington 98368 Attention: Subject: Mr. Don McNees, President Environmental Stewardship Plan Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Port Townsend, Washington Dear Mr. McNees: URS Corporation (URS) is pleased to submit this Environmental Stewardship Plan (ESP) to the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association (JCSA) for the small arms training facility near Port Townsend, Washington.

The JCSA small arms facility includes the Trap Range, 50 Yard Range, 100 Yard Range, 200/300 Yard Range, and Pistol Range, which have been in operation since 1962. The JCSA is located west of Gun Club Road on Jefferson County Parcel Number 001083012. The JCSA leases approximately 40 acres of the Parcel from Jefferson County. The Parcel is zoned by Jefferson County as an "essential public facility -waste management" (JCSA, 2014). Land use is described by Jefferson County as "miscellaneous services". (JCSA, 2014). This ESP describes site-specific "Best Management Practices" {BMPs) for the management of lead and other range-related materials at the outdoor small arms firing ranges. This ESP was prepared in accordance with the following guidance documents: • Best Management Practices for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 2, (EPA, 2005}; • Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Arms Firing Ranges, The Interstate Technology and Regulatory Council (ITRC, 2005); • Environmental Aspects of Construction and Management of Outdoor Shooting Ranges, National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF, 1997); and • Army Small Arms Training Range Environmental Best Management Practices, U.S. Army, 2005. Site inspection of the JCSA facility was performed on November 7, 2014. The purpose of the site inspections was to identify current environmental conditions at the JCSA facility and to assess standard range operations and maintenance procedures. The results of the site inspection were used to develop site-specific BMPs for the JCSA small arms range, in accordance with currently accepted practices for range management. The BMPs consist of a series of practical measures and procedures for the ongoing management of lead and range-related materials at the facility. Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 OelivetableslESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx ) Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan 1.1 OBJECTIVE The objective of this ESP is to provide the JCSA range managers and operators with cost-effective procedures to prevent environmental impacts associat~d with outdoor range operations, including procedures to assist range managers in maintaining compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulatory requirements, including the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA}, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. Specifically, this ESP is designed to: • Assess the physical setting of the outdoor ranges; • Evaluate operations at the outdoor ranges; • Design BMPs to prevent transport of lead into the surrounding environment through erosion, groundwater transport, and/or surface water runoff; • Design BMPs to reduce range users' exposure to lead and encourage good hygiene practices; • Minimize the potential for human and wildlife exposure to lead and range materials; and • Develop policies and procedures for the long-term management of lead at the outdoor ranges. 1.2 MANAGEMENT APPROACH This ESP was developed to outline a management approach with the following primary objectives: 2 1. Control and contain lead bullets, bullet fragments, and/or lead shot. 2. Prevent migration of lead into subsurface soils, groundwater, surrounding water bodies, and wetlands. 3. Prevent human and wildlife exposure to lead and range materials. 4. Document lead and range material management activities and maintain records.

Environmental setting conditions including climate, topography, soil, and geology, were evaluated to determine the potential for lead in bullets to degrade, oxidize, or erode and be transported through erosion or infiltration. The presence of potentially sensitive resources (e.g. nearby land uses, groundwater, and surface water bodies) w~s investigated to determine if there is a potential for lead from the JCSA to migrate to these resources. 2.1 CLIMATE The climate of Jefferson County is a mid-latitude, west coast marine type with comparatively cool, dry summers and mild but wet and cloudy winters. There are distinct differences between the climate on the windward and leeward slopes of the mountains and between the alpine areas in the higher elevations and the coastal plains. The northeastern corner of the county is located in a part of the driest area of western Washington. With much of the county close to the ocean, temperatures show small diurnal and day-to-day change (USDA, 2014). In late fall and winter, storm centers crossing the north Pacific follow a more southerly path, striking coastal areas at frequent intervals. Air reaching the coast is moist and near the temperature of the ocean surface. The air cools and condenses as it moves inland and rises along the windward or southwestern slopes of the mountains. Warming and drying of the air as it descends along the leeward or northeastern slopes of the mountains produces a small dry belt frequently referred to as the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains. Due to topography and location, precipitation can show marked changes within short distances. The average annual precipitation ranges from 30 to 45 inches (760 to 1,145 millimeters) in the Puget Sound. This region is dry in summer. The average annual temperature is 45 to 55 degrees F (7 to 13 degrees C) in most of the region. The freeze-free period is as long as 365 days along the coast in the southern part of the region. Monthly climate data for the Port Townsend area is summarized in Table 2.0.

High levels of annual precipitation result in faster weathering of lead and an increased potential of lead migration in solution. Climate data for the project area indicates the JCSA receives a low to moderate amount of annual rainfall, averaging approximately 20 inches per year. 2.2 TOPOGRAPHY Topography at the JCSA Parcel is relatively flat with a slight depressional nature leading to the southeast. The Parcel sits on top of a localized plateau on the Quimper peninsula, to the northwest of the Olympic Peninsula and within the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountain range. Elevation at the JCSA is approximately 200 feet above mean sea level (msl}. The Parcel is located outside of any recognized FEMA flood hazard areas (within Zone X) (FEMA 2014). 2.3 LAND USE The JCSA range is approximately 40 acres. It is operated by the JCSA on land owned by Jefferson County. The small arms facility has been in operation at this site since 1962. The JCSA facility includes a clubhouse, a training / classroom building, a garage for storage and covered shooting lines. Approximately half of the range property has been cleared and is now mown field; the other half remains treed with primarily second growth fir trees interspersed with low brush including salal, huckleberry and blackberry. The Range property is bordered to the east by smaller parcels and single family homes located between the range and Jacob Miller Road. North and east of Jacob Miller Road are smaller wooded parcels and single family homes. To the west of the range are Jefferson County facilities including the animal shelter, recycling center, transfer station and landfill; and to the south the property is bordered by the JCSA. 4 Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 OeliverableslESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan Adjacent land uses also include the Jefferson County Equestrian Association to the west, a trail system to the west and south and agricultural lands to the south. The Parcel is zoned by Jefferson County as an "essential public facility-waste management''. Range areas are kept maintained through regular mowing operations. The Trap Range targetfall area is also kept as a maintained area. The Trap Range shotfall zone is located within second growth forest, as defined on Figure 2. 2.4 SOIL Soil information for the Parcel was obtained from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey for Jefferson County, Washington. The USDA soil survey consists of soil classification, estimation of soil permeability, and sample collection from each soil unit for mapping purposes. Onsite soils are predominantly mapped as Clallam gravelly sandy loam, Oto 15 percent slopes (CmC} (USDA NRCS, 2014). Descriptions and characteristics of soil types identified on the Parcel are summarized in Table 2.4 and presented on Figure 3.

Soil characteristics that may affect the potential for lead to migrate include soil pH, permeability, and soil particle size. Soil samples collected from the Range target berms and floors during site inspections are analyzed for pH. The results of the soil pH analysis will be used to determine if soil amendment is necessary. All of the soils mapped on the Parcel are complexes of intricately mapped individual units too finely combined to map independently. There are no hydric soils mapped on the Parcel. Past agricultural practices or other land disturbances due to construction may also alter currently existing soil types. 2.5 GEOLOGY The Parcel is located in the Willamette and Puget Sound Valleys Major Land Resource Area (MLRA), a part of the Northwestern Forest, Forage and Specialty Crop Region of the Puget Trough Section of the Pacific Border Province of the Pacific Mountain System. (USDA 2014). The oldest exposed rocks in this area are volcanics of the lower and middle Eocene Crescent Formation. In Eastern Jefferson County the Crescent Formation is dominated by basalt flows and mudflow breccias, but also contains basaltic conglomerate, breccia, and minor argillite. lnterbedded with ) and overlying the volcanics in Eastern Jefferson County are Eocene and Oligocene sedimentary rocks. The detrital sedimentary rocks are indurated and require secondary porosity and permeability to store and transmit water (E&E, 2011 ). The Parcel is underlain by unconsolidated-to- poorly consolidated clay, silt, sand, and gravel and lodgment till of Quaternary age. The maximum thickness of Quaternary sediments probably exceeds 2,000 feet. The range is located upon Fraser-age continental glacial till from the Pleistocene era. Stratified sand and gravel are seen in scattered outcrops of the lodgment till, but the permeable layers and lenses of sediment make up only a small proportion of the total unit. Subsurface geology includes unsorted, unstratified, highly compacted mixtures of clay, silt, sand, gravel and boulders deposited by glacial ice. Layers may contain interbedded stratified sand, silt and gravel. This area includes parts of the Vashon drift undivided. (WDNR, 2014). 2.6 HYDROGEOLOGY Groundwater in the vicinity of the Parcel generally ranges approximately from 200 to 250 feet beneath the ground surface (Ecology, 2014). Groundwater is plentiful in glacial and alluvial deposits around the Quimper peninsula region. Regional groundwater flows are generally towards the southeast to the Glen Clove area. Local groundwater flow directions may differ depending on 6 Project No.: 25698244 0:\25698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan local topography and subsurface conditions. There is no water well on the property; the JCSA is plumbed to the local public water supply. 2. 7 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The Willamette and Puget Sound Valleys MLRA is characterized by a cover of forest vegetation in many places. Douglas-fir is the dominant tree species. Bigleaf maple, western red cedar, and grand fir also are common. Red alder is aggressive on disturbed sites in Washington. Stands of cottonwoods and willows grow on overflow channels, streambanks, and islands. Forest understory species include tall Oregon-grape, Indian plum, snowberry, hazel, oceanspray, serviceberry, rose, poison oak, swordfern, dwarf Oregon-grape, and thimbleberry. Major wildlife species in this area include black-tailed deer, coyote, bobcat, beaver, rabbit, pheasant, ruffed grouse, California quail, owls, and woodpeckers (USDA 2014). A search of the US Fish and Wildlife Service's data report for listed species within Jefferson County, Washington identified the following plants and animals with the potential for being found on or within the immediate vicinity of the range. Most habitat types required by these listed are very specific, and none are reported found on the range.

The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) data was developed from several sources, including review and analysis of several years' worth of aerial imagery, review of Soil Survey reports for the Jefferson County area and spot checked ground truthing studies to confirm initial classifications. No wetlands on the NWI are mapped on the JCSA parcel (See Figure 4). A review of both of the Washington Department of Ecology's website and the Jefferson County website for environmentally sensitive areas mapped on the JCSA parcel was conducted. Neither website mapped wetlands nor other environmentally sensitive areas on the JCSA parcel. Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jeffe~on County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx 9 Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan 3.0 RANGE FACILITIES AND CURRENT OPERATIONS The description of range facilities and operations was developed from the November 7, 2014 site inspection, review of aerial photographs, tax lot maps, Jefferson County land use maps and interactive GIS website, and USGS-topographic maps. A site inspection was conducted on November 7, 2014, and included a visual inspection of the entire JCSA Range. The primary focus of the site inspection was to assess the physical setting at the JCSA facility, and to identify areas of lead accumulation and the potential for lead migration. In addition, the site inspection defines the baseline conditions for evaluation of BMP effectiveness and operational changes. 3.1 OUTDOOR RANGES The existing outdoor ranges are operated on an approximately 40 acre area. The range facilities include: • Pistol Range • 50 Yard Range • 100 Yard Range • 200/300 Yard Rifle Range • Trap Range 3.1.1 Pistol Range The Pistol Range is located near the center of the site, south of the 50 Yard Range and the 100 Yard Range and west of the 200/300 Yard Range (Figure 2). The Pistol Range is designed for pistol training activities, active shooting practice. target shooting, and practical shooting matches. The Pistol Range has a firing line shed, with the direction of fire west into a bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photos 1 and 2). An underground drain is located at the base of the bullet impact berm and extends through the berm to a low area on the backside of the berm, and runs north towards the 50 Yard Range. The drainage feature directs runoff on the Pistol Range to the north, to a ditch on the 50 Yard Range. The Pistol Range includes three separate shooting bays and a firing line shed (Appendix A. Photo 1 ). The Pistol Range accommodates movable and stationary targets. Shooting activities are conducted up to approximately 40 yards. A bullet impact berm is located at approximately 25 yards from the firing line (Appendix A, Photo 2). All members may use the Pistol Range, including law enforcement. 10 Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Oeliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan Existing BMPs at the Pistol Range include: • Bullet Containment: The Pistol Range has an earthen bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photo 2). The berm captures and contains the bullets. • Ballistic Sand Bullet Impact Berm: The bullet impact berm is faced with approximately 2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about Yi-inch to #1 O sieve sand, which effectively captures the bullets and drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm. The ballistic sand reduces the contact between stormwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand will also improve lead recovery and recycling. • Vegetative Cover: The Pistol Range floor is vegetated with low growing grass (Appendix A, Photos 1-2). The vegetative cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. The grass is routinely maintained through mowing activities. Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the Pistol Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 7.36, within the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.23, within the optimal soil pH range. 3.1.2 50 Yard Range The 50 Yard Range is located north of the Pistol Range and west of the 100 Yard Range. (Figure 2). The 50 Yard Range is designed for rifle and pistol training activities, active shooting practice, target shooting, and practical shooting matches. The 50 Yard Range has covered firing line shed (Appendix A, Photo 4). The 50 Yard Range is oriented south to north and fires into an earthen bullet impact berm that is faced with ballistic sand (Appendix A, Photo 3). A small drainage feature is located on the south and west sides of the 50 Yard Rifle Range to direct drainage to the north of the bullet impact berm and an open area where stormwater runoff can infiltrate into the ground. Small.arms training occurs at fixed firing positions within the firing line shed at stationary targets located 50 yards from the firing line shed. All rifle and pistol calibers are used at the 50 Yard Range. Maintenance activities recently completed at the 50 Yard Range includes increase the bullet impact berm height, installing ballistic san on bullet impact berm, and installing sand on the range floor (Appendix A, Photo 3). The 50 Yard Rifle Range accommodates movable and stationary targets. All members may use the 50 Yard Rifle Range, including law enforcement. Existing BMPs at the 50 Yard Rifle Range include: Project No.: 25698244 0:\25698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESPIFINALIFINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx 11 ) Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan • Bullet Containment: The 50 Yard Rifle Range has an earthen bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photo 3). The berm captures and contains the bullets. • Ballistic Sand Bullet Impact Berm: The bullet impact berm is faced with approximately 2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about Y.-inch to #10 sieve sand, which effectively captures the bullets and drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm. The ballistic sand reduces the contact between stormwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand will also improve lead recovery and recycling. • Vegetative Cover: The 50 Yard Rifle Range floor is vegetated with low growing grass that is regularly maintained (Appendix A, Photos 3-4}. The grass cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for min1m1z1ng lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 50 Yard Rifle Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in the bullet impact berm. A soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.85, within the optimal soil pH range. 3.1.3 100 Yard Range The 100 Yard Range is a rifle range located in the northern portion of the Parcel, east of the 50 Yard Range (Figure 2). The 100 Yard Range has a covered firing line (Appendix A, Photo 7). Firing occurs in a south to north direction. The 100 Yard Range shares a bullet impact berm with the 200/300 Yard Range (Appendix A. Photos 6 and 8). The 100 Yard Range is closed when the 200/300 Yard Range is in operation. The 100Yard Range is used for all rifle calibers. Small arms training occurs at fixed firing positions within the 100 Yard Range firing line shed at stationary targets. The range floor is composed of mowed grass Appendix A, Photos 5 and 7). A gravel filled trench drain is located at the base of the bullet trap to prevent stormwater migration from the range (Appendix A, Photo 6). Designed BMPs at the 100 Yard Range include: • Bullet Containment: The 100 Yard Range is constructed with an earthen bullet impact berm. The bullet impact berms capture and contain the bullets {Appendix A, Photos 5 -7). • Vegetative Cover: The 100 Yard Range floor is covered with low growing grass that is maintained (Appendix A, Photo 5 and 7). • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for mm1m1zmg lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 100 Yard Range during the site visit on November 12 Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINALIFINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 6.17, outside the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.47, within the optimal soil pH range. 3.1.4 200/300 Yard Range The 200/300 Yard Range is a rifle range located on the east side of the Parcel, east of the 100 Yard Range and Pistol Range (Figure 2). The firing lines for the 200 and 300 yard firing positions are located along the gravel road on the east side of the Parcel. Firing occurs in a south to north direction. The 100 Yard Range shares a bullet impact berm with the 200/300 Yard Range (Appendix A. Photos 6 and 8). The 100 Yard Range is closed when the 200/300 Yard Range is in operation. The 200/300 Yard Range is used for all rifle calibers. Small arms training occurs at fixed firing positions at the 200 and 300 yard firing positions using stationary targets. The 200 300 yard firing positions are located along the gravel road. The range floor is composed of level packed gravel along the road and is sparsely vegetated with low growing grasses that are maintained. Designed BMPs at the 200/300 Yard Range include: • Bullet Containment: The 200/300 Yard Range is constructed with an earthen bullet impact berm. The bullet impact berms capture and contain the bullets (Appendix A, Photos 6). • Vegetative Cover: The 200/300 Yard Range is located over a packed gravel road (Appendix, Photo 8). The vegetative and gravel cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 100 Yard Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 6.17, outside the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.47, within the optimal soil pH range. 3.1.5 Trap Range The Trap Range is oriented to the west, with three trap-only shooting stations (Appendix A, Photos 11 and 12). The maximum shot size used at the Trap Range is 7Yl shot. The shot fall zone for the Trap Range is located within upland forest areas, and is shown on Figure 2. The Trap Range is used for practice and competitive events. Project No.: 25698244 0:\25696244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverebles\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx 13 __) Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan The Trap Range was previously oriented towards the north. In 2002, a fire station was constructed to the north of the Trap Range. JCSA installed a large heavy curtain in between trees to prevent shot from traveling too far. A tarp was also placed on the ground below the curtain to ease collection of shot. The Trap Range was reoriented to the west in 2005. At that time, fifteen 5-gallon buckets of shot were salvaged from the area. There are currently no curtains or backdrops in use on the existing, west oriented Trap Range (USEPA. 2010). The Trap Range is generally flat, sloping very slightly towards the east and the trap house area. The range floor consists of native soil and maintained native grasses in the target fall zone and a second growth forested area within the shotfall zone. No evidence of soil erosion from stormwater was observed at the Trap Range. The fully vegetated range floor does not exhibit any evidence of soil erosion or channeling due to stormwater runoff. Existing BMPs at the Trap Range include: Lead Shot: Shot size is limited to 7 Yi shot. Shot Containment: The target fall zone is located in a flat vegetated area, Figure 2 (Appendix A, Photos 11 and 12}. The shot fall zone is located in a flat forested area beyond the shot fall zone (Appendix A, Photos 9 and 10). Vegetative Ground Cover: The Trap Range contains low height vegetation (native grasses) as cover and some compacted areas of soil. The vegetative cover is maintained near the firing positions and target fall area. Vegetative cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in storm water runoff (Appendix A, Photo 9, 11 and 12). • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 {EPA, 2005}. Soil pH was measured on the Trap Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor in the target fall zone and was measured at 7.30, within the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the range floor shot fall zone and was measured at 6.34, outside the optimal soil pH range. 4.0 RECOMMENDED BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES FOR OUTDOOR RANGES In addition to the designed BMPs described in Section 3.1 for each range, the following BMPs should be applied at the Site's proposed outdoor ranges to further minimize the potential for lead migration from range areas: • Establish and maintain full vegetative cover to prevent soil erosion; 14 Project No.: 25698244 0:\25698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESPIFINALIFINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan • Soil pH monitoring; • Bullet impact berm inspection; • Record lead removal performed by club members; and • Post signs to encourage proper hygiene. Each BMP is described in detail in the following sections. 4.1 General Facility Management The BMPs described in this section have been chosen to provide standardized methods for management of lead and other range-related materials at the facility. Identify Areas Where Firing Does Not Occur: Areas at the JCSA where firing does not occur are identified on Figure 2. Lead exposure is not a concern in areas defined on Figure 2. Because firing does not occur in these areas, lead and other range-related materials are not expected and it is not necessary for users of the facility to take any action regarding the presence of lead. Erosion and Sediment Controls for Ground Disturbance: Erosion and sediment control (ESC) BMPs will be implemented during any construction or maintenance projects that involve ground disturbance. The purpose of the ESC BMPs is to prevent erosion of material potentially containing lead. Specific BMPs will depend on the type of project, but may consist of one or more of the following: • Silt fencing installed along the base of any slopes; • Straw wattles and/or matting installed on exposed slopes; • Dust suppression; • Temporary wheel wash areas installed for vehicle traffic exiting the work area; • Inlet protection applied to any storm water conveyance features in the work area; • Stockpile soil management practices throughout the project; • Demarcation fencing placed around any sensitive areas; • Temporary (e.g., hay or mulch) or permanent (e.g., hydroseeding) cover placed on all disturbed areas immediately following completion of ground disturbance. Additional BMPs may be needed for large projects (5,000 sq feet or greater) or projects occurring on steep slopes or near areas with surface water features. Information describing appropriate use Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINALIFINAL_JCSA ESP.Oocx 15 Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan of ESC BMPs and installation procedures can be found in the Jefferson County Erosion Prevention Planning and Design Manual, found at http://www.co.jefferson.wa.us/commdevelopment/PDFS/stormwater%20site%20plan%20template %202014.pdf. In addition, URS is available for further consultation regarding the use of ESC BMPs. A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) 1200-C Permit is required for all projects that disturb one acre or more of land. The permit must be approved by the Department of Ecology prior to beginning any ground disturbance ((Chapters 173-201A and 200 WAC)). In addition, a Jefferson County Grading Permit is required (http://www. co. jefferson. wa. us/commdevelopment/PDFS/LI D/Clearing_ &_ Grading_ Ord. pdf} for any excavation projects involving 1) Fill/excavation exceeding 50 cubic yards; 2) Filling to a depth of two feet or more in any one location; 3) Excavating to a depth of 5 feet or more in any one location; or 4) Grading or excavating any quantity on steep slopes, in wetlands, or into or next to any body of water. Volunteer Worker Communication: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has comprehensive lead regulations (29 CFR 1910.1025). While these regulations apply only to employees; they can be used for range facility management. The following operating procedures will be explained to volunteer workers performing these tasks: 16 • Housekeeping. Housekeeping should be performed on a regular schedule to remove spent brass casings, shotgun shells and other range related material. • Earthen Berm Bullet Trap Maintenance. Wear personal protective equipment when working near earthen berms to prevent exposure to lead. Avoid these areas on dry windy days when airborne dust may be present. All lead recovery activities will be performed by a qualified contractor only. • Hygiene. Do not eat, drink, or use tobacco products or cosmetics on the ranges. Wash hands prior to handling food or personal products. Children are especially susceptible to lead poisoning; therefore. care should be taken to avoid carrying lead dust into personal vehicles or homes by removing work clothes and placing in a bag for laundering and showering if possible. Remove lead dust from shoes and clothes by HEPA filtration when work is complete. Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan These standard operating procedures are outlined in the Lead Awareness Fact Sheet (Appendix D}. This Fact Sheet will be provided to volunteer workers and receipt will be documented on the Lead Awareness Record Form (Appendix D). Contractor Communication: For all contract work involving potential exposure to lead, only qualified contractors will be used. Such tasks include lead reclamation from berms or ranges and construction in existing range areas. Copies of any required licenses will be obtained from contractors and filed at the JCSA facility. The JCSA Secretary or Treasurer will be responsible for obtaining a copy of the contractor's licenses and site specific health and safety plan prior to the contractor starting work. Range Waste Management: Waste materials generated from the ranges may contain lead and may be hazardous waste. Examples of potential hazardous waste generated at the facility include materials from the earthen berm, bullet trap material, and used targets. These materials should be placed in sealed containers when generated. Lead shot and bullets collected for recycling are not considered waste. JCSA will be a Conditionally Exempt Generator (CEG) if it generates less than 220 pounds of hazardous waste each month and accumulates no more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste on site. As a CEG, the federal and Washington hazardous waste laws generally will not apply to JCSA's hazardous waste, if the waste is properly recycled or transported for disposal to a landfill meeting applicable federal and Washington requirements. If the JCSA generates more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste in any month or accumulates more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste on site, the JCSA will be become a regulated hazardous waste generator. The JCSA should obtain specific advice regarding applicable legal requirements if the threshold is exceeded. Waste generated at a range and potentially containing lead may be a hazardous waste. The JCSA may assume a generated waste is hazardous (for example, used air filters on an indoor range are assumed to be hazardous waste), or in order to determine whether generated waste is hazardous, a knowledge of process determination or a waste characterization analysis will be performed. The knowledge of process determination may be based on existing published or documented data for the material (e.g., Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), supplier/manufacturer or vendor information, or information from trade associations). All analytical records will be maintained by the JCSA. If the representative sample has a leachable lead concentration less than 5 mg/L, the waste is not hazardous and can be disposed of in regular trash collection, or recycled. However, if the Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx 17 Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan waste is determined to have a leachable lead concentration of 5 mg/Lor more, it is a hazardous waste. 4.2 PREVENT LEAD ACCUMULATION IN WETLANDS AND WATER Areas identified as wetlands and water potentially regulated by the State of Washington or United States are present near the JCSA parcel, as shown on Figure 4. Preventing lead shot accumulation in wetlands and water is required by state and federal law. Wetlands and/ or water are not mapped as being present on any of the small arms ranges at JCSA. The drainage features on the Pistol Range and 50 Yard Rifle Range that convey excess stormwater runoff are not shown on this mapping; no indication if these drainage features are regulated is known at this time. 4.3 INSTALL BALLISTIC SAND ON BULLET IMPACT BERMS Install approximately 2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about %-inch to #10 sieve sand on the face of all bullet impact berms. The ballistic grade sand is from a crushed rock source and is washed to eliminate fine materials. The ballistic sand will hold a slope of about 1.5:1 (horizontal: vertical) and does not compact, which allows the sand to effectively absorb the bullet energy and contain the bullets. The ballistic sand effectively drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm and reduces the contact between storrnwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand will also improve lead recovery and recycling. 4.4 ESTABLISH AND MAINTAIN VEGETATIVE GROUND COVER BMP Recommendations: Maintain ground cover at all ranges. Vegetation cover is an important erosion control method for outdoor ranges because vegetation absorbs rainfall, slows stormwater flow velocity, and minimizes the potential for lead to be transported by stormwater runoff. Use of an erosion control seed mix containing native species appropriate for the site growing conditions is recommended to minimize irrigation and maintenance needs. Native seed mixes can be applied through the use of mechanical spreaders, by hand, or by hydroseed. The recommended upland native seed mix is provided in Table 4.2: 18 Table 4.2: Recommended Native Seed Mix and Application Rate Species Seeding Rate Lbs/ac. Perennial Ryegrass 60 lbs/ acre Creeping Red Fescue 17 lbs/ acre White Dutch Clover 3 lbs/ acre Sheep Fescue 16 lbs/ acre Note: Information from Direct Seed Sales (as representative locally available nat,ve seed mix retailer).

A cover of a certified weed-free straw may be necessary to prevent seeds from blowing or washing away prior to germination. The seed mix includes drought tolerant species and irrigation is not required. The seeds will propagate where adequate growing conditions are present, and a single application of seed is sufficient Certified weed-free straw, mulch, or compost can be used on sloped surfaces, generally greater than a ratio of 2:1 (horizontal:vertical), as an alternative to vegetative ground cover as they also reduce the mobility of sediment and prevent lead migration. These materials should be applied at least two inches thick. Mulches and compost can reduce the pH of soil; see Section 4.2 for pH monitoring. If vegetation or other ground cover cannot be established, installation of bio-filter bags may be considered. Fertilizer or soil amendments can be used to enhance vegetation growth. Vegetation does not need to be established where gravel and rock is present on range (e.g. walk~ays, and driveways). Gravel and rock materials on the range floors are not subject to erosion and are able to capture sediment, preventing lead in stormwater runoff. Personnel should conduct regular range inspections to assess the potential for erosion at the ranges. Indications of erosion may include unvegetated exposed soil and migration of sediment in stormwater or by wind. The inspections should be conducted quarterly and after major storm events. The inspection should include visual observations of the bullet impact berms for eroded · areas. If erosion is observed, corrective actions may include additional seeding and/or planting may be necessary. The results of the periodic inspections will be recorded using B-1 Range Monitoring Forms located in Appendix B. 4.5 SOIL PH MONITORING BMP Recommendations: Monitor pH at all ranges. The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 to 8.5 (EPA, 2005). The soil pH should be monitored annually to verify the pH remains within the optimal range. Results of the soil monitoring should be recorded on form B-2 Soil pH Monitoring Log (provided in Appendix B). If the soil monitoring results indicate the pH is below the optimal range, lime amendment should be added to the berms to increase the pH. Lime should be added following manufacturer's specifications. Table 4.3: Measured Soil pH at Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association I Soil Sample Location pH !

Regular sampling of soils in these locations is recommended to keep soil pH conditions within the optimal range. An annual application of a lime amendment to correct soil pH is recommended. Refer to Appendix E for more information on strategic use and application ) of lime amendment. ) 4.6 BULLET A CCU MULA TION INSPECTION BMP Recommendations: Perform annual inspections of bullet accumulation at bullet impact berms of all ranges. Annual inspections should be conducted to evaluate the face of the earthen berms in the bullet impact areas. The earthen berms should be evaluated to determine if lead has accumulated to the point of posing a potential risk to range safety or the environment. If large bullet pockets are observed, the face of the berm should be re-graded to eliminate the bullet pockets and/or ballistic grade sand added to the berm face. If the annual inspection indicates a potential ricochet hazard is present, the particulate lead should be recovered from the berm. The lead recovery activities must be performed in accordance with applicable OSHA and Washington Station Department of Labor and Industries (WALi) requirements. Annual bullet impact inspections should be recorded on form B-1 Range Monitoring Log provided in Appendix B. 4. 7 RECORD LEAD RECYCLING BMP Recommendations: Record lead recycling performed by club members at all ranges. 20 Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Oeliverables\ESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Oocx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan Lead removed for recycling from bullet impact areas by range users for personal use should be recorded. An easily-accessible weigh station should be installed at the Range with a logbook that identifies the individual, the amount of lead removed, the range where lead removal was conducted, the intended purpose of the lead and the date of the removal. JCSA currently uses a log sheet to record range users and number of rounds each user may sheet at individual ranges. This form should be used in conjunction with the included form under Appendix B to assist in determining when lead recycling activities should commence. Removal activities should be recorded on form B-3 Bullet Recovery Log provided as Appendix B. JCSA representatives indicated that some time prior to 1988, lead shot was mined by a contractor from the woods north of the trap range. No records are available to document how much shot was recovered, who conducted the recovery, or how this shot was used, disposed, or recycled (E&E, 2011 ). 4.8 PERSONAL HYGIENE BMP Recommendations: Post signs at all ranges to remind range users to avoid exposure to lead through appropriate personal hygiene practices. Basic personal hygiene practices can minimize potential exposure to lead from fire arms use at the ranges. These hygiene guidelines include: • Refrain from consuming food and/or drink, smoking or placing your hands in proximity to your mouth or nose while on the range or cleaning a firearm. • Range patrons are advised to wash with cool water following shooting activities. • Change and wash clothing after a shooting or firearm cleaning session to minimize exposure to airborne lead or solvent and cleaning product residues. • Pregnant women and children under seven years of age, and others who have health concerns should consult a physician before visiting shooting ranges. Posting signs at the ranges and in restrooms to remind and/or notify range users of appropriate hygiene practices is recommended. Example signs are included as Appendix C. 4.9 OPTIONAL BMPS FOR OUTDOOR RANGES The following BMPs are considered optional. JCSA may choose to implement these BMPs as resources become available. Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 Deliverables\ESPIFINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx 21 ) Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan Record Type and Quantity of Rounds Fired: Logs may be kept at the range shooting station to record the type and quantity of rounds fired. This information may be used to monitor the amount of lead that is deposited within each range over time. Rounds fired may be recorded on form B-4 Rounds Fired Log, provided in Appendix B. • Regular Collection of Shotgun Wads and Shotshells at the Trap Range: Use of mechanical devices to collect spend shotshells and shot gun wads on the Trap Range is recommended. Information regarding collection devices and methods is provided under Appendix F. 5.0 PREVIOUS ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIONS In April 2010, the Jefferson County Public Health (JCPH) received a complaint from an unknown neighbor regarding concerns of lead on the range infiltrating to the local groundwater supply. On April 27, 2010, the citizen contacted the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) to express concern that JCSA may have lead in the ground from bullets which could be migrating to the aquifer. In response to these complaints. the JCPHD completed an Initial Investigation Field Report of JCSA in August 2010 on behalf of Ecology. Ecology submitted an update to the complaint in August 2010 stating "soil samples reveal lead above 250 mg/kg (MCTA clean up level) in several areas on the range plus one area on range property but outside of shooting area (between the rifle range berm and Jacob Miller Rd)." EPA had agreed to evaluate the site in August 2010. The USEPA contracted Ecology & Environment (E & E) to provide technical support for completion of a Preliminary Assessment (PA). The specific goals for the Jefferson County Shooting Range PA, identified by the EPA, were: • Determine the potential threat to public health or the environment posed by the site; • Determine the potential for a release of hazardous constituents into the environment; and • Determine the potential for placement of the site on the National Priorities List. In August 2011, a Removal Assessment (RA) was completed at the JCSA for the EPA. The purpose of the removal assessment was to investigate potential threats to human health and the environment from the release of metals and P AHs. The RA included X -ray fluorescence (XRF) field screening of soils throughout the site. The XRF was used to establish three approximate lead levels: background (anticipated to be 20 ppm or less). low level (anticipated to be between 20 and 400 ppm), and high level (anticipated to be greater than 400 ppm) (E&E, 2011 ). 22 Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 DetiverableslESPIFINALIFINAL_JCSA ESP.Docx Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan The analytical results from soil samples collected during the environmental investigation indicated the metals antimony, arsenic, lead, and vanadium exceeded either the EPA Regional Screening Levels (RSls) (residential or industrial) or MTCA (unrestricted or industrial). At least one sample collected at each of the ranges (Rifle Range, Pistol Range, Trap Range, and in the Rifle/Pistol Range background) exceeded one of the screening levels. The RA concluded that metals (i.e., antimony, arsenic, lead, and vanadium) and PAHs were present in site soils at concentrations exceeding screening levels. However. a soil sample collected from the storm water runoff route did not indicate any metals other than vanadium at concentrations greater than the screening levels, indicating that contaminants are not significantly migrating from the site (E&E, 2011 ). Because lead and other metals are associated with firing range activities are expected on the ranges, the bullets and associated metals are not abandoned and are not a waste regulated by the EPA or Ecology. The analytical results from sampling demonstrated metals associated with range use have not been transported to groundwater or off the range. In October 2011, EPA issued a "No Further Action" determination based upon results from the preliminary assessment and removal assessments {USEPA, 2011 ). Project No.: 25698244 0:125698244 Jefferson County SAR\4000 DeliverableslESP\FINAL\FINAL_JCSA ESP.Oocx 23 Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, Port Townsend, Washington Environmental Stewardship Plan 6.0 CONCLUSIONS The ranges at the JCSA are in excellent condition and well maintained. The physical setting at the JCSA was assessed through personnel interviews and information review and inspection of the outdoor ranges on November 7, 2014. Recommended BMPs in this ESP should be implemented to prevent the off-site migration of lead into the surrounding environment through erosion, groundwater transport, and/or surface water runoff, and to minimize the potential for human and wildlife exposure to lead and range materials. The BMPs described in this ESP were developed to provide policies and procedures for the long-term management of lead at the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association. In order to measure the success of this ESP, it is necessary to keep accurate records to document the effects of recommended BMPs. Facility records should include range inspection logs, soil pH monitoring logs, lead removal logs, and rounds fired logs (as applicable). Templates for these logs are included in Appendix B. It is recommended this ESP be reviewed by range management personnel every five years and updated as site conditions change.

APPENDIX D Lead Fact Sheet ) Appendix D-1 Lead Awareness Fact Sheet Lead in Firing Ranges: Facts and How to Minimize Exposure Facts: How does exposure to lead occur on firing ranges? Ammunitions and primers containing lead are the primary source of lead dust in firing ranges. Lead dust generated when firearms are discharged circulates in the air and settles on surfaces. Anyone using or working/ volunteering at the range may be exposed by inhaling the dust or by coming in contact with surfaces contaminated with dust. How does exposure to lead affect your health? Symptoms of prolonged exposure to lead include muscle and joint pain, hypertension, digestive problems, nausea, difficulty in concentration and memory loss, irritability, and difficult pregnancies. Your family can also be adversely affected as lead dust can easily be transported in clothing and body. Children, in particular, can suffer from neurological disorders including learning and behavioral problems, hearing problems, migraines, and impeded growth. How to Minimize Exposure to Lead Dust: Housekeeping: All indoor surfaces should be kept free of lead dust as it accumulates by using either a wet mop or a HEPA vacuum. When replacing vacuum filters, follow the manufacturer's instructions and take care to prevent reintroducing trapped lead particles back into the air. Immediately place the used filter into an appropriate, sealed container for disposal. Wear appropriate protective equipment while performing this task. Methods that stir up lead dust (e.g., sweeping or use of compressed air) should not be used. While working in the Indoor Range, the ventilation should be turned on (unless performing work on the ventilation system). Housekeeping should be performed on a regular schedule to remove accumulations of lead dust. ) _) How to Minimize Exposure to Lead Dust: Working Near Berms: Wear protective gear, including a dust mask and safety glasses when working near the berms. Do not work near the berms during dry and windy weather. Do not disturb the berms. Lead recovery should only be performed by a qualified contractor. Ventilation: Maintaining stable, uniform airflow with good ventilation reduces the level of lead dust in the air. Ensure that air circulates across all shooting booths carrying the gun smoke away from the shooter's face. Hygiene: Avoid eating, drinking, using tobacco products, and using cosmetics on the ranges. Wash hands prior to handling food or personal products. Remove lead dust from shoes and clothing by HEPA vacuuming before entering lunch room facilities. Leave used shoes and boots at the range or clean them before entering home or vehicle. Remove range clothing and place in a bag for laundering. Wash range clothing separately from other clothing. Upon entering home, immediately shower to remove lead dust from hair and skin. Additional information on lead can be found at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website: http:/lwww .cdc.gov/exposurereport/pdf/factsheet_lead. pdf TIP; By using jacketed and plated ammunition, especially with a non- lead primer, airborne lead level can be significantly reduced.

Sample locations were chosen as best representative locations for areas of general use. Table D-1 summarizes pH findings: Table D-1: Summary of pH Findings on portions of the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Small Arms Range Soil Sample Location pH Result 100 Yard Range Impact Berm 7.47 Within optimal pH range 100 Yard Range Floor 6.17 Outside optimal pH range SO Yard Rifle Range Impact Berm 7.85 Within optimal pH range Pistol Range Impact Berm 7.23 Within optimal pH range Pistol Range Floor 7.36 Within optimal pH range Trap Range Targetfall Zone 7.3 Within optimal pH range Trap Range Shotfall Zone 6.34 Outside optimal pH range Two sampled areas fall outside of the optimal pH range with pH readings below 6.5. Two sampling locations tested outside the optimal pH range: the 100 Yard Range floor and the Trap Range shot fall zone. Soil pH across the parcel generally ranges from 5.2 -5.9, according to soil pH ranges provided in the Soil Survey for Jefferson County, Washington (NRCS, 1975). Acidic soils are known to react with lead in lead shot and go into solution, thereby making the lead transportable across the site during precipitation events. One method of counteracting acidic soils is continual testing to ascertain soil pH and treatment with a lime amendment if necessary. The Jefferson County Conservation District offers per sample testing for a basic fee of $25 /sample.The lab will also include recommendation for corrective measures http://www.jeffersoncd.org/category/soil- testing/ There are also home test kits available from local home improvement stores for basic pH.

Strongly acid soil are usually the result of the action of these strong organic and inorganic acids over the years. Soil acidity consists of active and reserve acidity. Most of the acid-causing elements (hydrogen and aluminum) are held by the cation exchange sites of the soil particles and organic matter. This is referred to as reserve acidity. Soil with large amounts of clay and organic matter have high potential for reserve acidity. Soil pH is a measure of active acidity, the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil solution. The active acidity is present in the immediate environment of roots and microbes. The total acidity is the sum of the reserve and active acidity. Lime neutralizes both the active acidity and some of the reserve acidity. As active acidity is neutralized by the lime, reserve acidity is released into the soil solution, maintaining the active acidity or the pH. The ability of a soil to resist changes in pH is called buffering capacity and is largely due to the reserve acidity. More lime is required to neutralize acidity on a highly buffered soil compared to a less buffered soil. More applications of lime may be required, although the actual amounts being applied may be significantly smaller in volume. Several factors contribute to the amount of lime required for each site. Effect of Soil Type Soil type or texture will affect the application rate of lime-products due to particle size and porosity of the material. The more porous the material, the shorter the retention time of the lime and neutralizing effect it will have on soil. Sand particles are small, but compared to other soil particles they are largest. The other two main categories of soil particles are silt, which is smaller than sand, and clay, which is still smaller. Sand. Water and nutrients move through sand and sandy soil faster, meaning lime may need to be applied more often. Loam. These soil have an even mix of all mineral particle sizes. loams are the most prevalent soil type observed at the proposed range. \115 71sr,p8pw<:s 111uojecrs12s69R244 Jolfcr.;on Coun<y SAR'..5000 l·echnicallliSl'IApp £ Lime\Lime Memo_Or•ll.doc 5·22 PM 01/1 l/l 5 Page2 URS Clay. Microscopic clay particles pack together tightly. Water and nutrients move into and through clay soil slowly. Clays retain water and nutrients for longer periods of time, potentially requiring less applications of lime. Particle fineness is important for lime effectiveness. The neutralization effect is greater with small particles because of increased total surface area exposed to the soil acidity. Lime distribution in the soil also is important because the lime effect of a particle extends only about 1/8 inch. A predominance of sand particles makes a lighter, more open soil with lots of channels for air and water circulation. Minute clay particles pack together tightly making a clay soil heavier, more dense, and with less favorable air and water circulation. Because of the greater density of clay soil, more lime may be required to change the pH. Types of Lime Amendment Lime amendment generally means either calcium carbonate (calcite or calcitic limestone), or calcium-magnesium carbonate (dolomite or dolomitic limestone). Other forms include true lime (calcium oxide), and slaked, builder's, or hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide). True lime is highly caustic making handling difficult. Hydrated lime has more neutralizing power than limestone so it requires smaller quantities to achieve the same results. Hydrated lime is less caustic than true lime and is often available in a palletized from, which is easy to apply. Dolomite lime is the most common type of dry lime due to cost considerations and ease of application 1• Liming materials are relatively inexpensive, comparatively mild to handle and leave no objectionable residues in the soil. They can be applied slowly (over a period of months) to raise soil pH. Both calcitic and dolomitic lime sources work well in raising soil pH. Dry limes come in either a powder or pelletized form. Liquid lime is a formulation of approximately 50 percent high quality dry Agricultural lime (usually greater than 90 percent) and 50 percent water. It has the advantage of providing better uniformity of spread over a large area in comparison to dry lime. There are three main disadvantages of liquid lime. First, there are normally higher operational costs since both water and lime needs to be hauled across the field. Secondly, under-liming is more likely to occur with liquid lime due to spread rate. Finally, more frequent lime applications are often needed since liquid lime reacts quicker than a dry lime source, but the rate may not be high enough to correct all the reserve acidity. One must be very careful of the rate at which liquid lime is applied. 1 University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension Service. hnp://extension.unh.cdu/FI IOEC/docs/Liming.htm \I 1.17 J sr-pRpwcsl l.p«Jjoctsl2S698244 /efferson County SJ\RISOOO Te<hnical\ESP\App E Limelt,ime Memo_Urafl doc 5:22 l'M 01!1 J/1 ~ Page3 ) URS Considerations for determining the types of lime to be applied include not only cost per acre, but also ease of handling, frequency of use and storage. For the Ruger Range, it is recommended that a dry lime consisting of hydrated lime or dolomite be utilized. Application Applying dry type lime is very similar to applying common fertilizer. Either a drop spreader or a rotary spreader can be used. Uniform surface coverage is key as the pH adjustment occurs in the immediate vicinity of the lime and essentially stays where it's put. To insure even coverage, one half of the lime should be applied in one direction, and the remainder applied in a perpendicular (crisscross) direction. It is simple to determine if surface coverage is uniform because of the visible white color. Mixing of the soil is not recommended due to the presence of lead shot. Mixing of lime amendment into the soil will eventually occur because of lime falling into soil cracks, earthworm activity, soil disturbance with planting and other maintenance activities, and irrigation and/or precipitation moving the lime downward. The effect of surface-applied lime has been found to move downward at about 1/2 inch per year on fine-textured soil. Lime takes time to neutralize soil acidity. Often as much as six months may be needed before pH changes significantly. Neutralization will be quicker if particle size is small (less than 60 mesh). Therefore, a fine-grained lime amendment should be used during the first application because it will react more quickly with the soil. Range use can start after the first application because the lime amendment is applied to the ground surface, collocated with the shot and bullets, and mixing is not required. The soil pH should be measured again in about 6 months and additional lime should be applied as necessary. It may take multiple lime applications to balance soil pH. It is best to apply small amounts of lime more frequently to maintain soil pH in a no-till system2• 2 Samuel Roherts Noble fou11da1io11. lutp:1/www .noble.orglaglsoil/liminsqueslionsl \II S71«·1>B1>wtsllprojoc1s\2S69S244 Jefferson Co,uuy SI\RISOOOTcol,n;t,I\JlSP\App Ii L;mel.Lime Memo_Diafi.doc S:22 PM 01/D/I S Page4 APPENDIX F Shotgun Wad Collection Information ) Appendix F Recommended Shotgun Wad Recovery Recovery of shotgun wads and used shotgun shells is recommended to prevent excessive buildup of plastic on the range. Recovery of spent wads can be conducted either by hand, raking, or by using specialized mechanical equipment. A mechanical raking device, similar to devices used On a golf driving range, are Typical t 6-inch, hand operated mechanical raking device. available for shotgun wad and shell removal The mechanical raking devices are wheel driven, and are propelled manually or towed by a small tractor or four-wheeler. Raking devices are a good, low-cost option for sites with relatively flat terrain that include compact shooting stations where the units can be easily maneuvered. Recovery of shotgun wads by hand can be conducted either by picking up individual wads or using a handheld collection device (see website listing below). The advantage for hand collection is less disturbance to local vegetation and being able to collect wads and shotshells in more confined spaces. However, this is a more time intensive process due to the small amount of wads that are collected perevent. Another third mechanical option for Typical tractor-towed device. COiiection Of shotgun wads and shells includes the use of mechanical vacuuming devices (parking lot vacuum). A wide variety of mechanic vacuums are available, and can manually propelled, self-supported driving vehicles, or mounted in a pickup trucks or tractors for use in areas of steep and uneven terrain. Recovery of shotgun wads is recommended to prevent the materials from migrating off the range by wind or water. Residual lead is present on the shotgun wads and used shells and removal is recommended to prevent the lead migrating off the range. l\l 57lsr,118rw-sl'.projcc1sl2.<69S244 Jelferson Counly SAlt'.5000 Technicall.E.SP'•.App F Sho1sun',Shol~·· w.d Rocovery doc S:22 PM O I ii J/1 S Page I URS Shotgun wad raking devices can be purchased online by specialized vendors, including: https://www.ammoupusa.com/pick-up-shotgun-shells/ http://www.uniguetek.com/site/696296/product/T131 O#brass wizard ii Mechanical Vacuums can be purchased online or from brick and mortar specialized vendors. The type and effectiveness of the vacuum equipment can be affected by range topography, surface roughness, and surface materials. The flatter and smoother the range floor being vacuumed, the more efficient the machine will be. For ranges with very heavy amounts of shotgun wads or shot shells, rental of a truck mounted vacuum device may be warranted to maximize efficiency in collection. The vacuuming action may generate dust that could contain lead from shotgun wads. Proper safety clothing should be worn when conducting collection, including dust mask, protective eyewear and, in the case of mechanical vacuums, hearing protection. Safety should be considered for sites with steep slopes. This may dictate the type of collection device most appropriate for the Range.

It is apparent that the berms/backstops are continually graded and maintained, no proJectlle divots or indentations were noted. • This is not a trivial matter, and is and excellent indicator of a well-managed range. Divots and indentations are a sign of neglected maintenance, and lead to impacted material at the backstop. This condition, if not addressed through regrading will eventually cause rounds to ricochet off the backstop Into surrounding areas. • Walkways and access to the target position clear. • No noted target paper, wood and waste from target shooting. Notes: General observations ofthe ranges are above average to excellent.

Due to the age of the range, the mining should be completed as soon as club recourses permit. • Area #2, SOy pistol/rifle: Installation of a baffle at the bullet backstop is recommended to contain projectiles. No specific construction methods or materials are required for the inst illation, as long as shrapnel does not launch over to the back side of the backstop. • Keep berm graded, divots and indentations filled every few weeks. • Maintenance Note: Additional sand keeps the backstop mass loading lower, and allows projectile penetration. Add 3" to 4" of sand every other year, or as necessary t o maintain a penetrable surface to absorb bullets. • Area #4, #5 & #6: Cowboy target shooting Note: A landing base for the shrapnel should be maintained as follows. At the base of the slope install a sand base consisting of material no larger than 1/16". The landing base should start at the toe of the slope, and towards the firing line 10'. All steel targets should be placed directly in the middle of this landing area during cowboy type shoots. • Area #4, #5 & #6: Baffle installation Note: White a backstop is recommended at Area #2, it is not necessarily required for Area's #4, #5 & #6. However, the club should consider the installation of a baffle or brow at the backstops In these areas. The main purpose of a shooting range is to provide a safe place for the public to enjoy shooting sports in the safest manner possible, while at the same time protecting the surrounds. In this regard, the installation of a baffle/brow should be given serious consideration.

Mainly, any Indentation more the 6" -8" deep. This is best conducted once a month with a rake or shovel. • Continue practice of cleaning wood and target paper from target areas. • Mass loading of the lOOy backstop: During divot maintenance on the backstop, take note of the material. If it has larger quantities of shrapnel, add sand to the divot area. If the material at the perimeter of the divots moves easily into the indentations, no additional sand is required. • The recommendations in this report are guidelines for the club to maintain its existing facility. They are specifically intended for use by the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association, and to not apply to any other location, then that which is noted above.

The JCSA is dedicated to operating a shooting range that minimizes lead contamination by mitigating migration of lead to the surrounding community. The JCSA Environmental Stewardship Committee has familiarized itself with the EPA "Best Management Practices at Outdoor Shooting Ranges" The National Shooting Sports Foundation's manual and other available guidance from the National Rifle Association and others for environmental management. This Lead Management Plan (LMP) for the shooting range is required as part of the License Agreement between Jefferson County and JSCA. The LMP has been prepared by members of the JCSA Environmental Stewardship Committee in collaboration with Jefferson County with the intent of developing and maintaining an ongoing plan to mitigate potential lead migration, to periodically remove lead solids from soils, and to reclaim and reuse lead spoils in an ) environmentally sound manner. This most recent update LMP is based off of previous plans and an assessment done by URS Corporation on behalf of Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association {JCSA) for the shooting range located on Gun Club Road near Port Townsend, Jefferson County, Washington (Figure 1). The JCSA shooting facility includes the Trap Range, 50 Yard Range, 100 Yard Range, 200/300 Yard shooting points associated with the 100-yard range, and Pistol Range, which have been in operation since 1962. The JCSA is located north of Gun Club Road on Jefferson County Parcel Number 001083012. The JCSA manages the shooting ranges comprising approximately 40 acres of the Parcel from Jefferson County. The Parcel is zoned by Jefferson County as an "essential public facility-waste management" (JCSA, 2014). Land use is described by Jefferson County as "miscellaneous services". (JCSA, 2014). This LMP describes current site "Best Management Practices" (BMPs) for the management of lead and other range-related materials. This LMP was prepared in accordance with the following guidance documents: • Best Management Practices for Lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 2, (EPA, 2005); • Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Anns Firing Ranges, The Interstate Technology and Regulatory Council (ITRC, 2005); • Environmental Aspects of Construction and Management of Outdoor Shooting Ranges, National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF, 1997); and SI Page • Army Small Arms Training Range Environmental Best Management Practices, U.S. Army, 2005. For the URS assessment, the site inspection of the JCSA facility was performed on November 7, 2014. The purpose of the site inspections was to identify current environmental conditions at the JCSA facility and to assess standard range operations and maintenance procedures. The results of the site inspection were used to develop site-specific BMPs for the JCSA small arms range, in accordance with currently accepted practices for range management. The BMPs consist of a series of practical measures and procedures for the ongoing management of lead and range-related materials at the facility. Previous Environmental Actions Conducted In April 2010, the Jefferson County Public Health (JCPH) received a complaint from a neighbor regarding concerns of lead on the range infiltrating to the local groundwater supply. On April 27, 2010, the citizen contacted the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) to express concern that JCSA may have lead in the ground from bullets which could be migrating to the aquifer. In response to these complaints, the JCPHD completed an Initial Investigation Field Report of JCSA in August 2010 on behalf of Ecology. Ecology submitted an update to the complaint in August 2010 stating "soil samples reveal lead above 250 mg/kg (MCT A clean up level) in several areas on the range plus one area on range property but outside of shooting area (between the rifle range berm and Jacob Miller Rd}." EPA had agreed to evaluate the site in August 2010. The USEPA contracted Ecology & Environment (E & E) to provide technical support for completion of a Preliminary Assessment (PA). The specific goals for the Jefferson County Shooting Range PA, identified by the EPA, were: • Determine the potential threat to public health or the environment posed by the site; • Determine the potential for a release of hazardous constituents into the environment; and • Determine the potential for placement of the site on the National Priorities List. In August 2011, a Removal Assessment (RA) was completed at the JCSA for the EPA. The purpose of the removal assessment was to investigate potential threats to human health and the environment from the release of metals and PAHs. The RA included X-ray fluorescence (XRF) field screening of soils throughout the site. The XRF was used to establish three approximate lead levels: background {anticipated to be 20 ppm or less) low level (anticipated to be between 20 and 400 ppm), and high level (anticipated to be greater than 400 ppm) (E&E, 2011). The analytical results from soil samples collected during the environmental investigation indicated the metals antimony, arsenic, lead, and vanadium exceeded either the EPA Regional Screening Levels (RSLs) (residential or industrial) or MTCA (unrestricted or industrial). At least one sample collected at each of the ranges (Rifle Range, Pistol Range, Trap Range, and in the Rifle/Pistol Range background) exceeded one of the screening levels. 61Page ) The RA concluded that metals (i.e., antimony, arsenic, lead, and vanadium) and PAHs were present in site soils at concentrations exceeding screening levels. However a soil sample collected from the storm water runoff route did not indicate any metals other than vanadium at concentrations greater than the screening levels, indicating that contaminants are not significantly migrating from the site (E&E, 2011 ). Because lead and other metals are associated with firing range activities are expected on the ranges, the bullets and associated metals are not abandoned and are not a waste regulated by the EPA or Ecology. The analytical results from sampling demonstrated metals associated with range use have not been transported to groundwater or off the range. In October 2011, EPA issued a "No Further Action" determination based upon results from the PA and RA {USEPA, 2011). 1.1 OBJECTIVE The objective of this LMP is to describe and provide the JCSA range managers and operators with cost-effective procedures to prevent environmental impacts associated with outdoor range operations, including procedures to assist range managers in maintaining compliance with applicable local, state, and federal regulatory requirements, including the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Clean Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA), and Occupational Safety and Health Administration {OSHA) requirements. Specifically, this LMP is designed to: • Assess the physical setting of the outdoor ranges; • Evaluate operations at the outdoor ranges; • Describe BMPs to prevent transport of lead into the surrounding environment through erosion, groundwater transport, and/or surface water runoff; • Describe BMPs to reduce range users' exposure to lead and encourage good hygiene practices; • Minimize the potential for human and wildlife exposure to lead and range materials; and • Implement policies and procedures for the long-term management of lead at the outdoor ranges. 1.2 MANAGEMENT APPROACH This LMP was developed to describe a management approach with the following primary objectives: 1. Control and contain lead bullets, bullet fragments, and/or lead shot. 2. Prevent migration of lead into subsurface soils, groundwater, surrounding water bodies, and wetlands. 3. Prevent human and wildlife exposure to lead and range materials. 4. Document lead and range material management activities and maintain records. 71Page 2.0 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The environmental setting of outdoor ranges can affect the potential for lead migration from range areas. Environmental setting conditions including climate, topography, soil, and geology, were evaluated to determine the potential for lead in bullets to degrade, oxidize, or erode and be transported through erosion or infiltration. The presence of potentially sensitive resources (e.g. nearby land uses, groundwater, and surface water bodies) was investigated to determine if there is a potential for lead from the JCSA to migrate to these resources. 2.1 CLIMATE The climate of Jefferson County is a mid-latitude, west coast marine type with comparatively cool, dry summers and mild but wet and cloudy winters. There are distinct differences between the climate on the windward and leeward slopes of the mountains and between the alpine areas in the higher elevations and the coastal plains. The northeastern corner of the county is located in a part of the driest area of western Washington. With much of the county close to the ocean, temperatures show small diurnal and day-to-day change (USDA, 2014}. In late fall and winter, storm centers crossing the north Pacific follow a more southerly path, striking coastal areas at frequent intervals. Air reaching the coast is moist and near the temperature of the ocean surface. The air cools and condenses as it moves inland and rises along the windward or southwestern slopes of the mountains. Warming and drying of the air as it descends along the leeward or northeastern slopes of the mountains produces a small dry belt frequently referred to as the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains. Due to topography and location, precipitation can show marked changes within short distances. The average annual precipitation ranges from 30 to 45 inches {760 to 1, 145 millimeters) in the Puget Sound. This region is dry in summer. The average annual temperature is 45 to 55 degrees F (7 to 13 degrees C) in most of the region. The freeze-free period is as long as 365 days along the coast in the southern part of the region. Monthly climate data for the Port Townsend area is summarized in Table 2.0.

High levels of annual precipitation result in faster weathering of lead and an increased potential of 81Page ) lead migration in solution. Climate data for the project area indicates the JCSA receives a low to moderate amount of annual rainfall, averaging approximately 20 inches per year. 2.2 TOPOGRAPHY Topography on the property is relatively flat with a slight depressional nature leading to the southeast. The property sits on top of a localized plateau on the Quimper peninsula, to the northwest of the Olympic Peninsula and within the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountain rarige. Elevation at the JCSA is approximately 200 feet above mean sea level (msl). The Parcel is located outside of any recognized FEMA flood hazard areas (within Zone X) (FEMA 2014). 2.3 LAND USE The JCSA range is approximately 40 acres. It is operated by the JCSA on land owned by Jefferson County. The shooting range has been in operation at this site since 1962. The JCSA facility includes a clubhouse, a training/classroom building, a garage for storage and covered shooting lines. Approximately half of the range property has been cleared and is now mown field; the other half remains treed with primarily second growth fir trees interspersed with low brush including salal, huckleberry and blackberry. The Range property is bordered to the east by smaller parcels and single family homes located between the range and Jacob Miller Road. North and east of Jacob Miller Road are smaller wooded parcels and single family homes. To the west of the range are Jefferson County facilities including the animal shelter, recycling center, transfer station and landfill; and to the south the property is bordered by the JCSA. Adjacent land uses also include the Jefferson County Equestrian Association to the west, a trail system to the west and south and agricultural lands to the south. The Parcel is zoned by Jefferson County as an "essential public facility-waste management". Range areas are kept maintained through regular mowing operations. The Trap Range target fall area is also kept as a maintained area. The Trap Range shot fall zone is located within second growth forest, as defined on Figure 2. 2.4 SOIL Soil information for the property was obtained from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Soil Survey for Jefferson County, Washington. The USDA soil survey consists of soil classification, estimation of soil permeability, and sample collection from each soil unit for mapping purposes. Onsite soils are predominantly mapped as Clallam gravelly sandy loam, 0 to 15 percent slopes (CmC) (USDA NRCS, 2014). Descriptions and characteristics of soil types identified on the Parcel are summarized in Table 2.4 and presented on Figure 3.1 91Page Table 2.4: Soil T vpes Maooed on the Jefferson Countv Soortsmen's A ssociation p I arce Soil Map Unit Surface (A and B Subsoil Drainage Surface Hydric Horizons) pH Soi11 Clallam Gravelly Clallam gravelly sandy gravelly sandy Gravelly sandy loam sandy loam is well drained loam, 0 to 15 (0-3 in) Very gravelly loam (23-and permeability is 5.2 -5.4 No percent slopes sandy laom (3-23 in) 60 in) very low to moderately (CmC) low Dick loamy Stratified Dick loamy sand is sand to somewhat excessively sand, 0 to 15 Loamy sand (0-4 in) loamy drained and 5.6-6.2 No percent Slopes Loamy sand (4-37 in) sand (37 -permeability is high to (DcC) 6 in) very high Hoypus Gravelly loamy sand Gravelly Hoypus gravelly loamy gravelly loamy (0-10 in) Gravelly loamy sand is somewhat sand, 0 to 15 loamy sand { 10-26 sand (26-excessively drained, 5.3 -5.9 No percent slopes in} 60 in) permeability is high to (HuC) verv hioh Notes: 1 Hydric soils are defined as those soils that are sufficiently wet in the upper part to develop anaerobic conditions during the growing season. Soil types are identified on the National Hydric Soils List by State for Jefferson County, Washington (USDA NRCS. 2014) in = inches Source: NRCS, 1975 As summarized in Table 2.4, soils on the property generally consist of loamy sands and are well-drained. Soil characteristics that may affect the potential for lead to migrate include soil pH, permeability, and soil particle size. Soil samples collected from the Range target berms and floors during site inspections are analyzed for pH. The results of the soil pH analysis will be used to determine if soil amendment is necessary. All of the soils mapped on the property are complexes of intricately mapped individual units too finely combined to map independently. There are no hydric soils mapped on the property. Past agricultural practices or other land disturbances due to construction may also alter currently existing soil types. 2.5 GEOLOGY The Parcel is located in the Willamette and Puget Sound Valleys Major Land Resource Area (MLRA}, a part of the Northwestern Forest, Forage and Specialty Crop Region of the Puget Trough Section of the Pacific Border Province of the Pacific Mountain System. (USDA 2014). The oldest exposed rocks in this area are volcanics of the lower and middle Eocene Crescent Formation. In Eastern Jefferson County the Crescent Formation is dominated by basalt flows and mudflow breccias, but also contains basaltic conglomerate, breccia, and minor argillite. lnterbedded with and overlying the volcanics in Eastern Jefferson County are Eocene and Oligocene sedimentary rocks. The detrital sedimentary rocks are indurated and require secondary porosity and permeability to store and transmit water (E&E, 2011 ). The Parcel is underlain by unconsolidated-to-poorly consolidated clay, silt, sand, and gravel and lodgment till 10 I Page of Quaternary age. The maximum thickness of Quaternary sediments probably exceeds 2,000 feet. The range is located upon Fraser-age continental glacial till from the Pleistocene era. Stratified sand and gravel are seen in scattered outcrops of the lodgment till, but the permeable layers and lenses of sediment make up only a small proportion of the total unit. Subsurface geology includes unsorted, unstratified, highly compacted mixtures of clay, silt, sand, gravel and boulders deposited by glacial ice. Layers may contain interbedded stratified sand, silt and gravel. This area includes parts of the Vashon drift undivided. (WDNR, 2014). 2.6 HYDROGEOLOGY Groundwater in the vicinity of the Parcel generally ranges approximately from 200 to 250 feet beneath the ground surface (Ecology, 2014). Groundwater is plentiful in glacial and alluvial deposits around the Quimper peninsula region. Regional groundwater flows are generally towards the southeast to the Glen Clove area. Local groundwater flow directions may differ depending on local topography and subsurface conditions. There is no water well on the property; the JCSA is plumbed to the local public water supply. ) 2. 7 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES The Willamette and Puget Sound Valleys MLRA is characterized by a cover of forest vegetation in many places. Douglas-fir is the dominant tree species. Big leaf maple, western red cedar, and grand fir also are common. Red alder is aggressive on disturbed sites in Washington. Stands of cottonwoods and willows grow on overflow channels, streambanks, and islands. Forest understory species include tall Oregon-grape, Indian plum, snowberry, hazel, oceanspray, serviceberry, rose, poison oak, swordfern, dwarf Oregon-grape, and thimbleberry. Major wildlife species in this area include black-tailed deer, coyote, bobcat, beaver, rabbit, pheasant, ruffed grouse, California quail, owls, and woodpeckers (USDA 2014). A search of the US Fish and Wildlife Service's data report for listed species within Jefferson County, Washington identified the following plants and animals with the potential for being found on or within the immediate vicinity of the range. Most habitat types required by these listed are very specific, and none are reported found on the range. 11 IP age Table 2.7: Listed Species within the Vicinity of the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Parcel Name Status Habitat Potentially ~t Site?

The National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) data was developed from several sources, including review and analysis of several years' worth of aerial imagery, review of Soil Survey reports for the Jefferson County area and spot checked ground truthing studies to confirm initial classifications. No wetlands on the NWI are mapped on the JCSA parcel (See Figure 4). A review of both of the Washington Department of Ecology's website and the Jefferson County website for environmentally sensitive areas mapped on the JCSA parcel was conducted. Neither website mapped wetlands nor other environmentally sensitive areas on the JCSA parcel. Bl Page 3.0 RANGE FACILITIES AND CURRENT OPERATIONS 3.1 OUTDOOR RANGES The existing outdoor ranges are operated on an approximately 40 acre area. The range facilities include: • Pistol Range • 50 Yard Range • 100 Yard Range • 200/300 Yard Firing Points • Trap Range 3.1.1 Pistol Range The Pistol Range is located near the center of the site, south of the 50 Yard Range and the 100 Yard Range and west of the 200/300 Yard Range (Figure 2). The Pistol Range is designed for pistol training activities, active shooting practice, target shooting, and practical shooting matches. The Pistol Range has a firing line shed, with the direction of fire west into a bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photos 1 and 2). An underground drain is located at the base of the bullet impact berm and extends through the berm to a low area on the backside of the berm, and runs north towards the 50 Yard Range. The drainage feature directs runoff on the Pistol Range to the north, to a ditch on the 50 Yard Range. The Pistol Range includes three separate shooting bays and a firing line shed (Appendix A, Photo 1 ). The Pistol Range accommodates movable and stationary targets. Shooting activities are conducted up to approximately 40 yards. A bullet impact berm is located at approximately 40 yards from the firing line {Appendix A, Photo 2). All members may use the Pistol Range, including law enforcement. 3.1.2 50 Yard Range The 50 Yard Range is located north of the Pistol Range and west of the 100 Yard Range. (Figure 2). The 50 Yard Range is designed for rifle and pistol training activities, active shooting practice, target shooting, and practical shooting matches. The 50 Yard Range has covered firing line shed (Appendix A, Photo 4). The 50 Yard Range is oriented south to north and fires into an earthen bullet impact berm that is faced with ballistic sand (Appendix A, Photo 3). A small drainage feature is located on the south and west sides of the 50 Yard Rifle Range to direct drainage to the north of the bullet impact berm and an open area where stormwater runoff can infiltrate into the ground. Small arms training occurs at fixed firing positions within the firing line shed al stationary targets located 50 yards from the firing line shed. All rifle and pistol calibers are used at the 50 Yard Range. Maintenance activities recently completed at the 50 Yard Range includes increasing the bullet impact berm height, installing ballistic sand on bullet impact berm, and installing sand on 14 IP age ) the range floor (Appendix A, Photo 3). The 50 Yard Rifle Range accommodates movable and stationary targets. All members may use the 50 Yard Rifle Range, including law enforcement. 3.1.3 100 Yard Range The 100 Yard Range is a rifle range located in the northern portion of the Parcel, east of the 50 Yard Range (Figure 2). The 100 Yard Range has a covered firing line (Appendix A, Photo 7). Firing occurs in a south to north direction. The 100 Yard Range shares a bullet impact berm with the 200/300 Yard Range (Appendix A. Photos 6 and 8). The 100 Yard Range is closed when the 200/300 Yard Range is in operation. The 100 Yard Range is used for all rifle calibers. Small arms training occurs at fixed firing positions within the 100 Yard Range firing line shed at stationary targets. The range floor is composed of mowed grass Appendix A, Photos 5 and 7). A gravel filled trench drain is located at the base of the bullet trap to prevent stormwater migration from the range (Appendix A, Photo 6). 3.1.4 200/300 Firing Points The 200/300 Yard Firing Points are ranges located on the east side of the Parcel, east of the 100 Yard Range and Pistol Range (Figure 2). The firing lines for the 200 and 300 yard firing positions are located along the gravel road on the east side of the Parcel. Firing occurs in a south to north direction. The 100 Yard Range shares a bullet impact berm with the 200/300 Yard Range (Appendix A, Photos 6 and 8). The 100 Yard Range is closed when the 200/300 Yard Range is in operation. The 200/300 Yard Range is used for all rifle calibers. Small arms training occurs at fixed firing positions at the 200 and 300 yard firing positions using stationary targets. The 200 300 yard firing positions are located along the gravel road. The range floor is composed of level packed gravel along the road and is sparsely vegetated with low growing grasses that are maintained. 3.1.5 Trap Range The Trap Range is oriented to the west, with three trap-only shooting stations (Appendix A, Photos 11 and 12). The maximum shot size used at the Trap Range is 7% shot. The shot fall zone for the Trap Range is located within upland forest areas, and is shown on Figure 2. The Trap Range is used for practice and competitive events. The Trap Range was previously oriented towards the north. In 2002, a fire station was constructed to the north of the Trap Range. JCSA installed a large heavy curtain in between trees to prevent shot from traveling too far. A tarp was also placed on the ground below the curtain to ease collection of shot. The Trap Range was reoriented to the west in 2005. At that time, fifteen 5-gallon buckets of shot were salvaged from the area. There are currently no curtains or backdrops in use on the existing, west oriented Trap Range (US EPA, 2010). 15 IP age The Trap Range is generally flat, sloping very slightly towards the east and the trap house area. The range floor consists of native soil and maintained native grasses in the target fall zone and a second growth forested area within the shot fall zone. No evidence of soil erosion from stormwater was observed at the Trap Range. The fully vegetated range floor does not exhibit any evidence of soil erosion or channeling due to stormwater runoff. 16 IP age ) ) ·" 4.0 BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES 4.1 Specific Range Management 4.1.1 Pistol Range Existing BMPs for the Pistol Range include: • Bullet Containment: The Pistol Range has an earthen bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photo 2). The berm captures and contains the bullets. • Ballistic Sand Bullet Impact Berm: The bullet impact berm is faced with approximately 2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about %-inch to #10 sieve sand, which effectively captures the bullets and drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm. The ballistic sand reduces the contact between stormwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand will also improve lead recovery and recycling. • Vegetative Cover: The Pistol Range floor is vegetated with low growing grass (Appendix A, Photos 1-2). The vegetative cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. The grass is routinely maintained through mowing activities. • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the Pistol Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 7.36, within the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.23, within the optimal soil pH range. 4.1.2 50 Yard Range Existing BMPs for the 50 Yard Rifle Range include: • Bullet Containment: The 50 Yard Rifle Range has an earthen bullet impact berm (Appendix A, Photo 3). The berm captures and contains the bullets. • Ballistic Sand Bullet Impact Berm: The bullet impact berm is faced with approximately 2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about %-inch to #10 sieve sand, which effectively captures the bullets and drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm. The ballistic sand reduces the contact between stormwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand will also improve lead recovery and recycling. • Vegetative Cover: The 50 Yard Rifle Range floor is vegetated with low growing grass that is regularly maintained (Appendix A, Photos 3-4). The grass cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 50 Yard Rifle Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in the bullet impact berm. A soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.85, within the optimal soil pH range. 17 I Page 4.1.3 100 Yard Range Existing BMPs for the 100 Yard Range include: • Bullet Containment: The 100 Yard Range is constructed with an earthen bullet impact berm. The bullet impact berms capture and contain the bullets (Appendix A, Photos 5- 7). • Vegetative Cover: The 100 Yard Range floor is covered with low growing grass that is maintained (Appendix A, Photo 5 and 7). • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 100 Yard Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 6.17, outside the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.47, within the optimal soil pH range. 4.1.4 200/300 Yard Range Existing BMPs for the 200/300 Yard Range include: • Bullet Containment: The 200/300 Yard Range is constructed with an earthen bullet impact berm. The bullet impact berms capture and contain the bullets (Appendix A, Photos 6). • Vegetative Cover: The 200/300 Yard Range is located over a packed gravel road (Appendix, Photo 8). The vegetative and gravel cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in stormwater runoff. • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the 100 Yard Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor and was measured at 6.17, outside the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the bullet impact berm and was measured at 7.47, within the optimal soil pH range. 4.1.5 Trap Range Existing BMPs for the Trap Range include: • Lead Shot: Shot size is limited to 7 Yi shot. • Shot Containment: The target fall zone is located in a flat vegetated area, Figure 2 (Appendix A, Photos 11 and 12). The shot fall zone is located in a flat forested area beyond the shot fall zone (Appendix A, Photos 9 and 10). • Vegetative Ground Cover: The Trap Range contains low height vegetation (native grasses) as cover and some compacted areas of soil. The vegetative cover is maintained near the firing positions and target fall area. Vegetative cover prevents erosion and transport of sediment and lead in storm water runoff (Appendix A, Photo 9, 11 and 12). 18 IP age ) • Optimal Soil pH: The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). Soil pH was measured on the Trap Range during the site visit on November 7, 2014 in two separate locations. A soil sample was collected on the range floor in the target fall zone and was measured at 7.30, within the optimal soil pH range. A second soil sample was collected in the range floor shot fall zone and was measured at 6.34, outside the optimal soil pH range. 4.2 General Facility Management The BMPs described in this section provide standardized methods for management of lead and other range-related materials at the facility. In addition to the BMPs described for each range in the section above, the following BMPs are applied throughout the facility's outdoor ranges to further minimize the potential for lead migration from range areas: • Establish and maintain full vegetative cover to prevent soil erosion; • Soil pH monitoring; • Bullet impact berm inspection; • Record lead removal performed by club members; and • Post signs to encourage proper hygiene. Each BMP is described in detail in the following sections. Lead migration at JCSA is controlled by administrative rules and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for shot placement into impact berms or shot fall zones, by surface water runoff collection areas; and/or periodic reclamation of lead solids from impact berms and shot fall zones when or if needed. Copies of these S0Ps are included in Appendix D. Ranges are designed to direct shooters to shoot into the impact berms by target placement on permanent target standards on the rifle range and by administrative rule and shooter briefings for placement of the portable target stands used at the pistol range. No mining or reclamation of lead solids is permitted from berms or shot fall zones without authorization of the JSCA Executive Committee. The rule is in place to minimize any risk to individuals and to avoid the disruption of the berms which are quite steep and high. Such disturbance could promote movement of lead solids but would not likely cause migration off the property due to the topography and soil conditions. Reclaim and Recycle lead (and other shooting debris) Brass cartridge cases are periodically collected and recycled or re-used for reloading ammunition by club members who collect their own brass casings after shooting. Barrels are 19 IP age provided for the collection of brass if a shooter does not want to retrieve his own brass and take it with him. As previously noted, the unauthorized and unsupervised removal of lead from the impact berms is prohibited since this could cause disruption of the stability of the berms and facilitate lead movement from the confined regions of the berms. In addition, the unauthorized digging in the berms could pose a health and safety risk to the individuals. The quantity of lead deposited in the berms and shot fall zone is a factor to determine the need and schedule for any mining and reclamation efforts. Activity levels have been fairly consistent over the years and some records of the number of shots fired at the shotgun range and at the rifle and pistol ranges can be researched and interpolated. For the shot fall zone, a better method may be to document the shoots fired by individuals and groups by having each shooter indicate on a form how many and what kind of shells they shot during each session. That methodology is being taken under by the Executive Committee, and if appropriate, may be implemented in 2015. Economy of effort and effectiveness of such reclamation projects may be useful to determine the value versus cost of a major cleanup or whether such operations could be graduated over time. Economic factors will play the major role in determining when or if a reclamation project is appropriate since undisturbed lead collected in impact berms does not pose a significant danger to the public as noted in studies conducted by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the WA State Department of Ecology. Lead ion migration off the range is more of a concern than lead solids collected in the impact berm. Soil pH testing will be conducted annually to determine whether soil augmentation is appropriate to mitigate the possibility of lead contamination to storm water runoff and in the collection zones for such runoff. Drainage swales and ditches will be inspected annually to determine effectiveness of such diversion methods. These inspections will be documented in the Lead management Plan Activity Log contained in the overall LMP and a report of the findings of the Environmental Stewardship Committee report is presented to the Executive Committee for review and appropriate action. Identify Areas Where Firing Does Not Occur: Areas at the JCSA where firing does not occur are identified on Figure 2. Lead exposure is not a concern in these areas as firing does not occur. Additionally, lead and other range-related materials are not expected and it is not necessary for users of the facility to take any action regarding the presence of lead. Erosion and Sediment Controls for Ground Disturbance: Erosion and sediment control (ESC) BMPs will be implemented during any construction or maintenance projects that involve ground disturbance. The purpose of the ESC BMPs is to prevent erosion of material potentially containing lead. Specific BMPs will depend on the type of project, but may consist of one or more of the following: • Silt fencing installed along the base of any slopes; • Straw wattles and/or matting installed on exposed slopes; 20 IP age ) ) • Dust suppression; • Temporary wheel wash areas installed for vehicle traffic exiting the work area; • Inlet protection applied to any storm water conveyance features in the work area; • Stockpile soil management practices throughout the project; • Demarcation fencing placed around any sensitive areas; • Temporary (e.g., hay or mulch) or permanent (e.g., hydroseeding) cover placed on all disturbed areas immediately following completion of ground disturbance. Additional BMPs may be needed for large projects (5,000 sq. feet or greater) or projects occurring on steep slopes or near areas with surface water features. Information describing appropriate use of ESC BMPs and installation procedures can be found in the Jefferson County Erosion Prevention Planning and Design Manual, found at http://www. co. jefferson. wa. us/commdevelopment/PDFS/stormwater%20site%20plan%20templa te%202014.pdf. In addition, URS is available for further consultation regarding the use of ESC BMPs. A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) 1200-C Permit is required for all projects that disturb one acre or more of land. The permit must be approved by the Department of Ecology prior to beginning any ground disturbance ((Chapters 173-201A and 200 WAC)). In addition, a Jefferson County Grading Permit is required (http://www.co.jefferson.wa.us/commdevelopment/PDFS/LID/Clearing & Grading Ord.pdf) for any excavation projects involving 1) Fill/excavation exceeding 50 cubic yards; 2) Filling to a depth of two feet or more in any one location; 3) Excavating to a depth of 5 feet or more in any one location; or 4) Grading or excavating any quantity on steep slopes, in wetlands, or into or next to any body of water. Volunteer Worker Communication: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has comprehensive lead regulations (29 CFR 1910.1025). While these regulations apply only to employees; they can be used for range facility management. The following operating procedures will be explained to volunteer workers performing these tasks: • Housekeeping. Housekeeping should be performed on a regular schedule to remove spent brass casings, shotgun shells and other range related material. • Earthen Berm Bullet Trap Maintenance. Wear personal protective equipment when working near earthen berms to prevent exposure to lead. Avoid these areas on dry windy days when airborne dust may be present. All lead recovery activities will be performed by a qualified contractor only. • Hygiene. Do not eat, drink, or use tobacco products or cosmetics on the ranges. Wash hands prior to handling food or personal products. Children are especially susceptible to lead poisoning; therefore, care should be taken to avoid carrying lead dust into personal vehicles or homes by removing work clothes and placing in a bag for laundering and showering if possible. Remove lead dust from shoes and clothes by HEPA filtration when work is complete. These standard operating procedures are outlined in the Lead Awareness Fact Sheet (Appendix D). This Fact Sheet will be provided to volunteer workers and receipt will be documented on the 21 IP age Lead Awareness Record Form (Appendix D). Contractor Communication: For all contract work involving potential exposure to lead, only qualified contractors will be used. Such tasks include lead reclamation from berms or ranges and construction in existing range areas. Copies of any required licenses will be obtained from contractors and filed at the JCSA facility. The JCSA Secretary or Treasurer will be responsible for obtaining a copy of the contractor's licenses and site specific health and safety plan prior to the contractor starting work. Range Waste Management: Waste materials generated from the ranges may contain lead and may be hazardous waste. Examples of potential hazardous waste generated at the facility include materials from the earthen berm, bullet trap material, and used targets. These materials should be placed in sealed containers when generated. Lead shot and bullets collected for recycling are not considered waste. JCSA will be a Conditionally Exempt Generator (CEG) if it generates less than 220 pounds of hazardous waste each month and accumulates no more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste on site at any time. As a CEG, the federal and Washington hazardous waste laws generally will not apply to JCSA's hazardous waste, if the waste is properly recycled or transported for disposal to a landfill meeting applicable federal and Washington requirements. If the JCSA accumulates more than 220 pounds of hazardous waste in any month or accumulates more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste on site at any time, the JCSA will be become a regulated hazardous waste generator. The JCSA should obtain specific advice regarding applicable legal requirements if the threshold is exceeded. Waste generated at a range and potentially containing lead may be a hazardous waste. The JCSA may assume a generated waste is hazardous (for example, used air filters on an indoor range are assumed to be hazardous waste), or in order to determine whether generated waste is hazardous, a knowledge of process determination or a waste characterization analysis will be performed. The knowledge of process determination may be based on existing published or documented data for the material (e.g., Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), supplier/manufacturer or vendor information, or information from trade associations). All analytical records will be maintained by the JCSA. If the representative sample has a teachable lead concentration less than 5 mg/L, the waste is not hazardous and can be disposed of in regular trash collection, or recycled. However, if the waste is determined to have a leachable lead concentration of 5 mg/Lor more, it is a hazardous waste. 4.3 LEAD ACCUMULATION IN WETLANDS AND WATER Areas identified as wetlands and water potentially regulated by the State of Washington or United States are present near the JCSA parcel, as shown on Figure 4. Preventing lead shot accumulation in wetlands and water is required by state and federal law. Wetlands and/ or water are not mapped as being present on any of the shooting ranges at JCSA. The drainage features on the Pistol Range and 50 Yard Rifle Range that convey excess stormwater runoff are 22 IP age not shown on this mapping; no indication if these drainage features are regulated is known at this time. 4.4 BALLISTIC SAND ON BULLET IMPACT BERMS Approximately 1-2 feet of ballistic grade sand, about '!14-inch to #10 sieve sand is located on the face of all bullet impact berms. The ballistic grade sand is from a crushed rock source and is washed to eliminate fine materials. The ballistic sand will hold a slope of about 1. 5: 1 (horizontal: vertical) and does not compact, which allows the sand to effectively absorb the bullet energy and contain the bullets. The ballistic sand effectively drains stormwater from the bullet impact berm and reduces the contact between stormwater and bullets, preventing lead from mobilizing into stormwater. The ballistic sand also improves lead recovery and recycling. 4.5 ESTABLISH ANO MAINTAIN VEGETATIVE GROUND COVER Vegetation cover is an important erosion control method for outdoor ranges because vegetation absorbs rainfall, slows stormwater flow velocity, and minimizes the potential for lead to be transported by stormwater runoff. Use of an erosion control seed mix containing native species appropriate for the site growing conditions is recommended to minimize irrigation and maintenance needs. Native seed mixes can be applied through the use of mechanical spreaders, by hand, or by hydroseed. The recommended upland native seed mix is provided in Table 4.2: Table4.2 R ecommended N ative s eed Mix and Aoalica tion Rate Species Seeding Rate Lbalac. Perennial Rvearass 60 lbs/ acre Creepina Red Fescue 17 lbs/ acre White Dutch Clover 3 lbs/ acre Sheep Fescue 16 lbs/ acre Note: Information from Drrecl Seed Sales (as representative locally available native seed mix retailer). Available online at http://www.directseedsales.com/erosion.hlml Application of a native seed mix shall occur after maintenance or construction activities that disturb the ground surface. A cover of a certified weed-free straw may be necessary to prevent seeds from blowing or washing away prior to germination. The seed mix includes drought tolerant species and irrigation is not required. The seeds will propagate where adequate growing conditions are present, and a single application of seed is sufficient Certified weed-free straw, mulch, or compost can be used on sloped surfaces, generally greater than a ratio of 2: 1 (horizontal: vertical), as an alternative to vegetative ground cover as they also reduce the mobility of sediment and prevent lead migration. These materials should be applied at least two inches thick. Mulches and compost can reduce the pH of soil; see Section 4.2 for pH monitoring. If vegetation or other ground cover cannot be established, installation of bio-filter bags may be considered. Fertilizer or soil amendments can be used to enhance vegetation growth. 23 I Page Vegetation does not need to be established where gravel and rock is present on range (e.g. walkways, and driveways). Gravel and rock materials on the range floors are not subject to erosion and are able to capture sediment, preventing lead in stormwater runoff. Personnel shall conduct regular range inspections to assess the potential for erosion at the ranges, at least annually. Indications of erosion may include unvegetated exposed soil and migration of sediment in stormwater or by wind. The inspections should be conducted quarterly and after major storm events. The inspection should include visual observations of the bullet impact berms for eroded areas. If erosion is observed, corrective actions may include additional seeding and/or planting may be necessary. The results of the periodic inspections will be recorded using 8-1 Range Monitoring Forms located in Appendix B. 4.6 SOIL PH MONITORING The optimal soil pH for minimizing lead solubility and preventing the migration of lead through the soil column into underlying groundwater is between 6.5 and 8.5 (EPA, 2005). The soil pH shall be monitored annually to verify the pH remains within the optimal range. Results of the soil monitoring should be recorded on form B-2 Soil pH Monitoring Log (provided in Appendix B). If the soil monitoring results indicate the pH is below the optimal range, lime amendment should be added to the berms to increase the pH. Lime should be added following manufacturer's specifications. In the past, two sampling locations tested outside the optimal pH range: the 100 Yard Range floor and the Trap Range shot fall zone. Regular sampling of soils is needed to keep soil pH conditions within the optimal range. Soil sample results will also be submitted to Jefferson County. An annual application of a lime amendment to correct soil pH will be done until sampling indicates soils within the desired pH range. Refer to Appendix E for more information on strategic use and application of lime amendment. 4. 7 BULLET ACCUMULA TlON INSPECTION Quarterly inspections shall be conducted to evaluate the face of the earthen berms in the bullet impact areas. The earthen berms should be evaluated to ensure that the berms are maintaining shape and character in order to be effective at capturing bullets. If large bullet pockets are observed, the face of the berm should be re-graded to eliminate the bullet pockets and/or ballistic grade sand added to the berm face. If the annual inspection indicates a potential ricochet hazard is present, the particulate lead should be recovered from the berm. Any lead recovery activities must be performed in accordance with applicable OSHA and Washington Station Department of Labor and Industries (WALi) requirements. Annual bullet impact inspections should be recorded on form B-1 Range Monitoring Log provided in Appendix B. 4.8 RECORD LEAD RECYCLING Whenever any lead reclamation is to be conducted or any soil augmentation is done or any soil redistribution is done to mitigate lead deterioration, dispersal, or potential migration, documentation will be produced showing the dates any such activity was accomplished and the 24 IP age ) personnel involved or the names of any contractors that do the work and the nature of the work done. Also, if any lead is found and reclaimed, what was the ultimate destination of such products will be documented by affidavit or by manifest indicating dates, times, quantities and destinations. Such activity will be noted in the LMP activity Log. JCSA representatives indicated that some time prior to 1988, lead shot was mined by a contractor from the woods north of the trap range. No records are available to document how much shot was recovered, who conducted the recovery, or how this shot was used, disposed, or recycled (E&E, 2011). Soil samples taken by the Washington State Department of Ecology, and independent soil samples taken by a Washington State licensed lead technician in the fall of 2010, while indicating a few small spots having a lead return rate higher than the MTCA model cleanup level. The probability of lead being transported, either physically or chemically from the berms or from the shot fall field to areas outside the range boundaries was examined by the EPA and found to be extremely low, in fact lead migration was not observed. These samplings are kept in the LMP documents at the range. At approximately five-year intervals, lead mining and reclamation projects may be implemented and documented and retained in the LMP records for the duration of the occupancy. Removal activities shall be recorded on form B-3 Bullet Recovery Log provided as Appendix B. 4.9 PERSONAL HYGIENE Basic personal hygiene practices can minimize potential exposure to lead from fire arms use at the ranges. Signs are posted at the ranges and in restrooms to remind and/or notify range users of appropriate hygiene practices. Signs are included as Appendix C. These hygiene guidelines include: • Refrain from consuming food and/or drink, smoking or placing your hands in proximity to your mouth or nose while on the range or cleaning a firearm. • Range patrons are advised to wash with cool water following shooting activities. • Change and wash clothing after a shooting or firearm cleaning session to minimize exposure to airborne lead or solvent and cleaning product residues. • Pregnant women and children under seven years of age, and others who have health concerns should consult a physician before visiting shooting ranges. 25 I Page REFERENCES Ecology & Environment. 2011.

APPENDIX D Lead Awareness Fact Sheet ) ,.) 51 IP age Lead Awareness Fact Sheet Lead in Firing Ranges: Facts and How to Minimize Exposure Facts: How does exposure to lead occur on firing ranges? Ammunitions and primers containing lead are the primary source of lead dust in firing ranges. Lead dust generated when firearms are discharged circulates in the air and settles on surfaces. Anyone using or working/volunteering at the range may be exposed by inhaling the dust or by coming in contact with surfaces contaminated with dust. How does exposure to lead affect your health? Symptoms of prolonged exposure to lead include muscle and joint pain, hypertension, digestive problems, nausea, difficulty in concentration and memory loss, irritability, and difficult pregnancies. Your family can also be adversely affected as lead dust can easily be transported in clothing and body. Children, in particular, can suffer from neurological disorders including learning and behavioral problems, hearing problems, migraines, and impeded growth. How to Minimize Exposure to Lead Dust: Housekeeping: All indoor surfaces should be kept free of lead dust as it accumulates by using either a wet mop or a HEPA vacuum. When replacing vacuum filters, follow the manufacturer's instructions and take care to prevent reintroducing trapped lead particles back into the air. Immediately place the used filter into an appropriate, sealed container for disposal. Wear appropriate protective equipment while performing this task. Methods that stir up lead dust (e.g., sweeping or use of compressed air) should not be used. While working in the Indoor Range, the ventilation should be turned on (unless performing work on the ventilation system). Housekeeping should be performed on a regular schedule to remove accumulations of lead dust. How to Minimize Exposure to Lead Dust: Working Near Berms: Wear protective gear, including a dust mask and safety glasses when working near the berms. Do not work near the berms during dry and windy weather. Do not disturb the berms. Lead recovery should only be performed by a qualified contractor. 52 IP age Ventilation: Maintaining stable, uniform airflow with good ventilation reduces the level of lead dust in the air. Ensure that air circulates across all shooting booths carrying the gun smoke away from the shooter's face. Hygiene: Avoid eating, drinking, using tobacco products, and using cosmetics on the ranges. Wash hands prior to handling food or personal products. Remove lead dust from shoes and clothing by HEPA vacuuming before entering lunch room facilities. Leave used shoes and boots at the range or clean them before entering home or vehicle. Remove range clothing and place in a bag for laundering. Wash range clothing separately from other clothing. Upon entering home, immediately shower to remove lead dust from hair and skin. Additional information on lead can be found at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website: http://www.cdc.gov/exposurereport/pdf/factsheet_lead.pdf TIP: By using jacketed and plated ammunition, especially with a nonlead primer, airborne lead level can be significantly reduced. Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association 112 Gun Club Road Port Townsend, Washington 98368 {360) 379-1065 53 IP age I certify that I have received the Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Lead Safety Awareness Fact Sheet: Printed Name Signature 54 IP age ) ) APPENDIX E Lime Amendment Information ) ) 55 I Page Appendix E Jefferson County Sportsmen's Association Lime Amendment Information During the November 7, 2014 site visit, several soil samples were collected and tested for soil pH from different ranges across the Parcel (See Figure 3 for sample locations). Sample locations were chosen as best representative locations for areas of general use. Table D-1 summarizes pH findings: Two sampled areas fall outside of the optimal pH range with pH readings below 6.5. Two sampling locations tested outside the optimal pH range: the 100 Yard Range floor and the Trap Range shot fall zone. Soil pH across the parcel generally ranges from 5.2 -5.9, according to soil pH ranges provided in the Soil Survey for Jefferson County, Washington (NRCS, 1975). Acidic soils are known to react with lead in lead shot and go into solution, thereby making the lead transportable across the site during precipitation events. One method of counteracting acidic soils is continual testing to ascertain soil pH and treatment with a lime amendment if necessary. The Jefferson County Conservation District offers per sample testing for a basic fee of $25 /sample.The lab will also include recommendation for corrective measures http://www.jeffersoncd.org/category/soiltesting/ There are also home test kits available from local home improvement stores for basic pH. Recommended pH Balancing of Onsite Soil Soils tend to become acidic as a result of rainwater leaching away basic ions (calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium) as a result of carbon dioxide from decomposing organic matter and root respiration dissolving in water to form a weak organic acid, and as a result of the formation of strong organic and inorganic acids (such as nitric and sulfuric acid) from decaying matter and the oxidation of various fertilizers. Strongly acid soil are usually the result of the action of these strong organic and inorganic acids over the years. Soil acidity consists of active and reserve acidity. Most of the acid-causing elements (hydrogen and aluminum) are held by the cation exchange sites of the soil particles and organic matter. This is referred to as reserve acidity. Soil with large amounts of clay and organic matter have high potential for reserve acidity. Soil pH is a measure of active acidity, the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil solution. The active acidity is present in the immediate environment of roots and microbes. The total acidity is the sum of the reserve and active acidity. Lime neutralizes both the active acidity and some of the reserve acidity. As active acidity is neutralized by the lime, reserve acidity is released into the soil solution, maintaining the active acidity or the pH. The ability of a soil to resist changes in pH is called buffering capacity and is largely due to the reserve acidity. More lime is required to neutralize acidity on a highly buffered soil compared to a less buffered soil. More applications of lime may be required, although the actual amounts being applied may be significantly smaller in volume. Several factors contribute to the amount of lime required for each site. Effect of Soil Type 56 IP age Soil type or texture will affect the application rate of lime-products due to particle size and porosity of the material. The more porous the material, the shorter the retention time of the lime and neutralizing effect it will have on soil. Sand particles are small, but compared to other soil particles they are largest. The other two main categories of soil particles are silt, which is smaller than sand, and clay, which is still smaller. Sand. Water and nutrients move through sand and sandy soil faster, meaning lime may need to be applied more often. Loam. These soil have an even mix of all mineral particle sizes. Loams are the most prevalent soil type observed at the proposed range. Clay. Microscopic clay particles pack together tightly. Water and nutrients move into and through clay soil slowly. Clays retain water and nutrients for longer periods of time, potentially requiring less applications of lime. Particle fineness is important for lime effectiveness. The neutralization effect is greater with small particles because of increased total surface area exposed to the soil acidity. Lime distribution in the soil also is important because the lime effect of a particle extends only about 1/8 inch. A predominance of sand particles makes a lighter, more open soil with lots of channels for air and water circulation. Minute clay particles pack together tightly making a clay soil heavier, more dense, and with less favorable air and water circulation. Because of the ) greater density of clay soil, more lime may be required to change the pH. Types of Lime Amendment Lime amendment generally means either calcium carbonate (calcite or calcitic limestone), or calcium-magnesium carbonate (dolomite or dolomitic limestone). Other forms include true lime (calcium oxide), and slaked, builder's, or hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide). True lime is highly caustic making handling difficult. Hydrated lime has more neutralizing power than limestone so it requires smaller quantities to achieve the same results. Hydrated lime is less caustic than true lime and is often available in a pelletized from, which is easy to apply. Dolomite lime is the most common type of dry lime due to cost considerations and ease of application (University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension Service. hllp:l/c:xtc11sio11.unh.edu/FHGEC!docs/Limjni:,hun). Liming mate ria Is are relatively inexpensive, comparatively mild to handle and leave no objectionable residues in the soil. They can be applied slowly (over a period of months) to raise soil pH. Both calcitic and dolomitic lime sources work well in raising soil pH. Dry limes come in either a powder or pelletized form. Liquid lime is a formulation of approximately 50 percent high quality dry Agricultural lime (usually greater than 90 percent) and 50 percent water. It has the advantage of providing better uniformity of spread over a large area in comparison to dry lime. There are three main disadvantages of liquid lime. First, there are normally higher operational costs since both water and lime needs to be hauled across the field. Secondly, under-liming is more likely to occur with liquid lime due to spread rate. Finally, more frequent lime applications are often needed since liquid lime reacts quicker than a dry lime source, but the rate may not be high enough to correct all the reserve acidity. One must be very careful of the rate at which liquid lime is applied. 57 IP age Considerations for determining the types of lime to be applied include not only cost per acre, but also ease of handling, frequency of use and storage. For the Ruger Range, it is recommended that a dry lime consisting of hydrated lime or dolomite be utilized. Application Applying dry type lime is very similar to applying common fertilizer. Either a drop spreader or a rotary spreader can be used. Uniform surface coverage is key as the pH adjustment occurs in the immediate vicinity of the lime and essentially stays where it's put. To insure even coverage, one half of the lime should be applied in one direction, and the remainder applied in a perpendicular (crisscross) direction. It is simple to determine if surface coverage is uniform because of the visible white color. Mixing of the soil is not recommended due to the presence of lead shot. Mixing of lime amendment into the soil will eventually occur because of lime falling into soil cracks, earthworm activity, soil disturbance with planting and other maintenance activities, and irrigation and/or precipitation moving the lime downward. The effect of surface-applied lime has been found to move downward at about 1/2 inch per year on fine-textured soil. Lime takes time to neutralize soil acidity. Often as much as six months may be needed before pH changes significantly. Neutralization will be quicker if particle size is small (less than 60 mesh). Therefore, a fine-grained lime amendment should be used during the first application because it will react more quickly with the soil. Range use can start after the first application because the lime amendment is applied to the ground surface, collocated with the shot and bullets, and mixing is not required. The soil pH should be measured again in about 6 months and additional lime should be applied as necessary. It may take multiple lime applications to balance soil pH. It is best to apply small amounts of lime more frequently to maintain soil pH in a no-tifl system {Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation. hUp://www.noble~g/sgjl/limingguR$li!211s/). 58 IP age 5.

C. ).J. The potential sound issues at the J.C.S.A. shooting facility are: 1) 2) Local law enforcement training as required in our License and Operating Agreement. Recreational small arms shooting; 3) Shotgun recreational shooting. We are concentrating on reduction of recreational shooting sound and hope these majors also help reduce the sound of law enforcement training required by the county. J.C.S.A. operates shooting ranges on our designated property owned by Jefferson County. It operates under a License and Operating Agreement with the county. These firing ranges do have the potential to affect our sound profile and be heard by neighboring property owners. J.C.S.A. is actively working to reduce potential sound issues. In June or 2019, J.C.S.A. agreed to a weekly reduction in operating hours for an extension to December 31, 2040 of our License and Operating Agreement. This reduction in operating hours has led to a significant abatement of sound in the community. ) J.C.S.A. is committed to sound abatement and the following pages and exhibits describe sound abatement methodologies and technologies proposed and being considered for future noise abatement. These sound abatement measures will be integrated into our yearly planning as funds allow We have a major sound abatement project described within that will be completed in 2021 and we are planning to apply for the 2021-22 R.C.O, F .A.R.R. grant cycle for additional sound abatement projects. J.C.S.A. follows N.R.A. and other B.M.P.'s for management of sound and sound abatement and our goal is to minimize the effect of sound on our community. The lawful discharge of firearms is exempt under Chapter 870 J.C.C. (noise control) see 870.290 (18) and state regulation RCW 9.41.290 which pre-empts the entire field of firearms regulation. J.C.S.A. policy prohibits ''public nuisance noise,,, such as "propane cannons" and we strictly enforce range use hours. J.C.S.A. follows E.P.A. guidelines in these "Bet Management Policies for lead at Outdoor Shooting Ranges" document. "Dud" cartridges are collected in "Dud" boxes and disassembled and their components are recycled. Shotgun wadding is collected as needed and disposed of. Wadding is not considered hazardous.

ANALYSIS: Increasing public concerns regarding noise generated by shooting activities at the shooting facility operated by the JCSA prompted the County and JCSA to begin discussing potential changes to operating hours and days. Several meetings over the past month and a half have resulted in a proposed new set of operating hours and days which would result in a 27.5 percent reduction in weekly operating hours (29.9 percent annual reduction) and which includes a quiet Monday every week and one quiet Sunday a month (last Sunday of each month). Also, operating hours Tuesday through Friday have been reduced by two hours per day ( 10 am -7 pm versus 9 am -8 pm). The JCSA has applied for a Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) grant under the RCO's Fireanns and Archery Recreation Program to make safety and sound abatement improvements to the range. To be eligible for the grant the JCSA needs assurance that they will be able to operate the range for at least ten ( I 0) years after the date of the RCO's last payment to the JCSA. Because of this and in consideration of the substantial reduction in hours agreed to by the JCSA the proposed revised agreement extends the term through December 31, 2040. Under the proposed revised agreement, the JCSA will not allow units of the armed forces to use the facility without prior written approval from the County Administrator. It also prohibits expansion of the facility or operations on the facility without the County's express written permission. The proposed revised agreement also incorporates the requirements of Article HI of Chapter 8.50, Commercial Shooting Facilities, of the Jefferson County Code. Other inconsequential changes have been proposed to improve the format and to clarify certain language. ) ) 100 YARDSOUND ABATEMENT STRUCTURE As part of our sound suppression efforts, J.C.S.A. applied for and received a Washington State R.C.O. grant under its Firearms and Archery Recreational Range Program. The J.C.S.A. plans to construct a sound abatement structure on our 100-yard rifle range that will significantly reduce the loudest firearms on its range, the high- power bench rest rifles. The J.C.S.A.'s plans for this structure are with D.C.D. (Department of Community Development) for permitting and construction will start Spring 2020.

If colored clays are desired, only those with harmless pigments should be used. 3.12 Controlling Shooting Sound Ranges that are not managed responsibly generate opposition. Local support for, or at least tolerance of, a new or established range is vital for its future. That future is more certain if potential objectors can be persuaded of the community benefits of the range and that all reasonable measures will be taken to minimize any unwelcome effect on their community. In some instances range activities or designs have been altered to address noise concerns. 3 .12. l Siting of Range to Control Sound Levels New firing ranges should be located and designed to minimize the potential for objections to the sounds produced. Complaints about the sound of shooting can be It is preferable that there be no line of sight between a range and any noise-sensitive premises. difficult to resolve and often evolve into environmental complaints. Ranges have historically tended to be located in rural areas where land costs and sparse development are more suitable for this type of activity. However, the rapid development of rural areas is making it inevitable that range owners and operators will have to address the effect that development may have. Whether operating an existing range or planning a new one, it is important to consider swTounding land uses and landowners. Particular care is needed with the local topography. Hills and woods can reduce awareness of the range on neighboring land, but they can also reflect and increase sound levels. When planning a new range, the manager should consult with the local administrative authorities about the level of sound pemutted and any control measw-es required. A common mistake is to assume too low a daily use of the range. Predictions of future use should be based on the busiest days. The impact of the likely sound levels on the residents and users of the neighborhood should be assessed and steps taken to reduce it, if appropriate. Direction and Angles of Shooting The propagation of sowid from a shotgun is largely directional, with its loudness being nearly halved to the side and less still behind the shooting stands. Shooting should be away from noise- sensitive premises. This orientation can be difficult, though, as shooting is usually best facing north for favorable light conditions. Altering the angles of shooting can focus the resulting sounds away from sensitive areas. Some layouts, such as down-the-line, are more directional than others and can be used to help direct sounds. Sporting layouts create the widest acoustic impact, as it generally spreads all around each stand. 49 ITRC -Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Arms Firing Ranges February 2005 Amount, Frequency, and Timing of Shooting Sound can be characterized by its duration, frequency, loudness, pitch, and impulsivity, and any of these features can cause annoyance to the local community. The range manager can alter many aspects of the shooting operation to help reduce problems for the enterprise: • the nwnber of different layouts; • the amount of shooting at any one time; • the number of shots fired on any one day; • the times of day and days of the week for shooting; • the rate of shooting per hour; • the size and number of competitions, club, and open events~ • the number, size, and timing of practice sessions; and • the types of cartridges. Incentives such as reduced fees may prove helpful to offset unwanted restrictions or to encourage shooters at times to meet community concerns. A general contribution to lowering sound levels can be made by using subsonic cartridges or cartridges with smaller loads, as both produce lower sound levels. The time of day when shooting takes place is particularly imp01tant. Shooting can be confined to certain hours of the day, with the total number of hours fixed. The limits may be different on days of religious or cultural imp011ance. Some balance is needed in applying such measures, however, as the manager is responsible for a business that depends on shooter custom and satisfaction. If either is reduced too far, the business will suffer. Other Sounds Less obvious, ancillary sounds associated with the range may also need attention. Public address systems can produce far-carrying sounds, as can the vehicles of visitors and range workers and the equipment and machinery used in the day-to-day management. If range facilities are used at night for social or other pwJ)oses, care may be needed to prevent these sounds from troubling the local community. 3 .122 Sound Barriers and Berms Barriers to sound propagation can be used to reflect, redirect, absorb, contain, and isolate sounds from ranges. Natural barriers should be used where possible, including banks, cliffs, rock or quarry faces, woods and other thickly vegetated areas, walls, and buildings. Care is needed, however, that they not increase sound levels at noise-sensitive sites. No one type, construction method, or material will solve all the problems. The best combinations vary from range to range, depending on specific needs. Banks of trees are often favored but, in fact, are rarely effective. They take years to develop fully and need to be more than 50 m thick, with aisles spaced through them, to reduce sound levels substantially. They can scatter rather than reduce sound. Vegetation barriers need to be managed to maintain their density. Finally, they can make the reclamation of spent shot difficult, as noted previously. Trees can provide visual barriers between a range and the surrounding people, enhance the wildlife interest of the site, and act as windbreaks in exposed areas. 50 ) JTRC -Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Aims Firing Ranges February 2005 Artificial barriers or berms can be an effective solution to noise problems since they can be tailored to the specific requirements of the range. Their effectiveness depends on their design and positioning in relation to the source of sound and the sensitive areas. They should be close to the source and acoustically "sotr to help absorb the sounds. Two or more barriers can be placed around a given shooting stand. Their effectiveness is increased if the stands are set into the ground so that the guns project just above ground level. Large straw or hay bales around a stand can provide cheap and effective sound reduction. Once individual stands have been considered, larger berms can be constructed strategically around the peripheay of the range. They should be built in a way to prevent echoes and to be environmentally friendly. Permission to make such constructions on the site may be needed from the local administrative authority, and advice from acoustic engineers is strongly recommended. Sound barriers • permanently depress sotllld levels from the range; • can reduce the land needed for the range since less separation is needed from its neighbors; Sound barriers and berms may be expensive to construct and take up land, but they can have additional benefits beyond sound containment. • break the line of sight between the range and neighbors, which can reduce local opposition; • increase safety for range users and workers; and • reduce the natw-al air flow, perhaps decreasing airborne lead {and other compounds) exposure to the shooters and range workers. If perimeter berms are vegetated with shrubs and trees, they can improve the appearance of the range (provided the vegetation does not increase noise problems). Another f01m of barrier, vegetation on the ground, can help reduce sound propagation from shooting. Maintaining a grass covering is better than hard, bare surfaces from which sound waves readily reflect. Such a covering should be compatible with other management needs, including the recovery of lead shot, cartridge components, or clays. Vegetative covering can also control rnnoff ( see Section 3.9). Care is needed where shooting stands are set on concrete or other hard material and provided with some form of weather protection. The combination of hard surfaces can cause increased sound reflection and greater sound levels. Bullet traps, baffles, and side benns may be enough to control sound levels. If large-caliber rifles are used, then side berms or walls on either side of each firing line may be needed. Further sound reduction, particularly from muzzle blast, can be achieved by roofing each firing line, but some roof designs can amplify sounds. The use of side and end benns for bullet containment, each up to some 2.5 m high, can reduce sound levels by 10-20 dB. Greater reductions can be achieved by creating na1Tow alleyways with berms or other structures, each some 2 m wide, from the shooting position to the target. As circumstances and local needs dictate, additional measures can be considered: 51 JTRC -Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Arms Firing Ranges February 2005 • Firing positions can be partly surrounded by sound-absorbing materials, such as glass or rock wool. • More effective is the partial roofing of the positions with similar materials to reduce muzzle blast levels. • Bullet sound levels can be greatly reduced by applying sound-absorbing materials on side baffles and hanging plates of sound-absorbing material from overhead baffles at around 1-m intervals, down the range. • Where several ranges lie parallel to each other, sound-absorbent partitions can be placed between them. • Tube ranges assist in the reduction of sound. (The "tube range" is aptly named simply because it involves shooting within a tube to attenuate or redirect sound. The muzzle is enclosed and muzzle blast is reduced in many directions. It has been criticized by shooters because of the sound directed back at the shooter and gasses). • Impact smfaces on bullet traps can be covered with soW1d-absorbent materials. Weather Influences Weather is particularly important on the propagation of shooting sounds. During windy conditions, for example, the sound from the range may be hardly audible in upwind locations, but up to a 30-dB increase in sound levels can be recorded downwind. Under clear skies and calm winds, sound propagation can be at its greatest; however, a layer of snow or low clouds can cause reflect/redirect sound and therefore increase its perceived level. The range manager can't control the effects of local weather, especially where they vary greatly, but it is worth being aware of weather effects on shooting sound propagation. 3.12.3 Measurement of Shooting Sound Before a shooting soWld reduction program is considered, the sound levels produced by the proposed or current shooting stands should be measured. This step gives a baseline both for comparison with any government limits applying in the vicinity and for assessing the effectiveness of any sound reduction measures undertaken. Sound measurement is complicated by the facts that different characteristics of sound can be measured, equipment and units of measurement vary, and interpretation of results can be difficult. An Intemational Working Group, CEN/ISO, with experts in acoustics from around the world, is developing ISO standards on the measurement and prognosis of shooting noise for new or existing ranges. These standards will provide the measurement criteria necessary to calculate and assess the effect of shooting sound in the vicinity of a range. The standards will allow the calculation of ambient shooting sound levels without the need to record individual sound measurements. If no emission data for the specific range and its buildings are available, methods are given to obtain these data from measurements in the vicinity. 3.12.4 Sound Suppression The development of sound suppressors {"silencers") or sound moderators for sporting and target shooting use is increasing. They can be used on rifles and pistols and can remove the need for 52 ) [TRC -Environmental Management at Operating Outdoor Small Arms Firing Ranges February 2005 special sound containment measures on a range. Some designs are specifically for supersonic, high-powered anummition. Regulations on the use of suppressors vary from country to countty. Suppressors control only muzzle blast, reducing large-caliber sound levels for shooters from -160 dB to <140 dB, and, at IO m to the side, to <130 dB. They do affect the mean point of impact, but this factor can be corrected by adjusting the sights. Suppressors cannot affect the ballistic downrange sound from a supersonic bullet. Management of this source of shooting sound may still need berms or other constructions. The use of subsonic anununition is particularly beneficial with suppressors (or with standard rifles and pistols). The main benefit of suppressors is to reduce the overall sound levels from a rifle/pistol range, which may then reduce the need for greater separation distances from human habitation. They also help to protect the hearing of range users and bystanders. For a given rifle/pistol range, a combination of management techniques may provide the most cost·effective means of controlling sound levels. Siting and other factors are also impo1tant. 3.13 Newer and Emerging Technologies A variety of new or emerging technologies and research on existing technologies with new application may have a role in managing environmental conditions at a given range. All of the following have applications but depend entirely on range characteristics and shooting practices. Many are being developed for military applications and are not likely cost-effective in commercial and private applications. They are, however, valuable to the industry and should be considered and tested at the appropriate level before investing in fully operational systems. The status of several technologies at the time of this writing is described below. They will have advanced by the time you use this guidance, so Web addresses are included where possible to facilitate access to updated information that may be available on specific technologies or techniques. The DoD Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP, see http://www.ESTCP.gov) is a major source of the following information. 3.13.1 Berms Copius Sand Trap-Improvements to the traditional be1m are the Copius Sand Trap, developed by Copius Consultants, and the PRReim, a collaborative effort between the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) and AMEC Eatth and Environmental. For the Copius Sand Trap) a sand berm is constructed within a concrete catchment. The design includes proprietary water collection and recycle systems such that all water contacting the be1m is collected and recycled for dust control. The PRBerm involves cutting a notch in the face of the impact berm, using a nonwoven geofabric to isolate the native soil from the ballistic sand, and placing ballistic sand, amended with Apatite II, in the berm face. Maintenance is simplified for the Copius Sand Trap and the PRBenn, as the ballistic media in each is an easily sifted sand. Sifting can be by hand or with a rotary screen bucket mounted to a skid steer loader. For the Copius Sand Trap and the PRBerm, vegetation is not present in the impact area but is established on areas outside the impact area to prevent erosion. Vegetation in the impact area can hinder lead recovery efforts. 53 Sound Abatement Plan Shooting hours at the Range has been shorten to. Tuesday-Friday 10 AM -7 PM or Sunset (whichever is earlier). Saturday -Sunday 10 AM - 5 PM or Sunset (whichever is earlier}. Closed Monday to all gunfire. Closed last Sunday of each month to all gunfire. Sound abatement programs are necessary on all ranges from the standpoint of the user. Hearing protection should be a requirement for all users who are within 50 feet of the Shooters and firing line. Certain surface area configurations, such as a good grass cover affects the rate of decay for sound. The distance between a point source and a receiver is also an attenuating factor. As a rule, each time the distance Is doubled the sound pressure level is reduced by one-half, or reduced by about 6dB. Take note of any walls, buildings, signs, people or other barriers normally between the point source and the measuring point. These obstacles serve also to attenuate the sound pressure level. A hard surface does not add much to attenuation but distance, thick grass and heavy shrubbery do. Significant terrain features are also important, for example a sound source in a depression is provided barriers that will redirect sound and is not as serious as one at a higher elevation. Therefor, a range located in a valley presents less of a problem than one at the same general elevation as the surrounding area. Ranges elevated above a receiver will have the advantage of atmospheric attenuation, with additional components attenuated via wind. Atmospheric and wind attenuation is a function of temperature, wind speed, humidity and frequency. Atmospheric attenuation has a greater affect on high frequencies such as the supersonic crack of a bullet. Wind and temperature together affect propagation of sound in a variety, but are normally directional. A wind gradient tends to cause a sound wave traveling with the wind to slope or bend toward the ground and appear to be louder. A sound wave traveling against the wind will bend upward and away from the earth, hence developing a sound shadow very near the source. This is one reason it is difficult to hear upwind from a source. Another reason is the masking effect of wind sound around the ears. (from the NRA) Long term planning for the 40 yd. and 50 yd. range. The work will by done in two or three stages and maybe change depending materials and money. Range has berms on three sides with grass on them.

Aug 14, 2019 at 3:07 PM Acoustical Perimeter Survey of the Jefferson County Sportsman's Association Range Methodology In June and July of 2019 an acoustical survey of the perimeter of the Jefferson County Sportsman Association {JCSA) shooting range at 112 Gun Club Road. Port Townsend WA 98368 was conducted. The purpose of the survey was to establish the acoustic signature of fireanns at selected perimeter points to calculate a time weighted average decibel level for those points. This was done Instead of a conventional time weighted survey because the rifle activity level at the range (number of shots fired) is vef'/ low and at even a one second sampling rate would fail to capture some firearms signatures. Additionally many of the perimeter points have significant non range components such as street noise. dogs barking in a kennel, a fire station and a transfer station. With a calculated time weighted average only the acoustic component from the firearms range will be used and the activity level can be changed to show the effect different activity levels will have at the perimeter of the range. As a control a conventional time weighted study was conducted during a high activity level pistol match and the results validate the calculated methodology. on June 28, 2019 maximum decibel readings were taken at eight perimeter locatlons around the JCSA range when firing rifles and pistols and four locations firing a st1otgun. The average ambient level declbel reading was also recorded with an accuracy of plus or minus three dBA. The Sound Level Meter was calibrated with a <:ertlfled Sound Level Calibrator before the samples were taken and checked after the samples. The rifles were fired on the 'le hundred yard rifle range, the pistols were fired on the twenty-five yard pistol range and the shotguns were fired on the , __ .,rap field. The large caliber rifles were fired from the center position of the covered firing line and the smaller caliber rifles from various locations on the covered firing line. The difference between firing locations and the difference between one shot and the next at the same location was found to be between 1·2 dBA. The pistols were fired at various locations within the twenty-five yard range and again the location and shot to shot variation was 1-2 dBA. The shotgun was fired on the shooting position closest to the sample location and the shot to shot variation was 1 dBA. The shot to shot and location variation Is similar to the manufacturer's accuracy specification of plus or minus 1.4 dBA at 94 dBA. To show the relevance of these differences the average person can only repeatedly detect a 5 dBA level change. on July 06, 2019 a four hour sound level sample was taken on one second intervals at a high activity level USPSA match which had pistols and pistol caliber carbines at sample location A. On July 23, 2019 a fifteen minute sound level sample was taken on one second intetvals of the ambient acoustic levels at sample locations A and F. These fifteen minute samples were taken In the morning just before shooting started to get a clear sample of range ambient to determine the vehicle addition on the South and East sides. Equipment The Sound Level meter used was a Reed Instruments Model R8080 Seri&! Number 18061ll91 with Microphone MP·22 No. 181416. The sound Level calibrator used was a Reed Instruments R8090 Serial Number 180923952. Calibrated by Global Test Supply; Certification C273968-00-02; Expiration 30-Apr-2020. Large caliber rifles were a 7.62 X 54 military Rifle and a 50 BMG rifle both using standard ammunition. The 50 BMG Is the largest caliber rifle fired on the range and the 7.62 X 54 Is representative of rifles with the higher level acoustic signatures. Small caliber rifles were 223 Remington using standard ammunition. Pistols were 9mm NATO and 45 ACP using standard ammunition. ).._ notgul'l was a 12 gauge using standard ammunition.

The average of the ambient fifteen minute samples taken at sample point F was 35. 7 dBA. The average of the ambient fifteen minute samples taken at sample point A was 41.5 dBA. The difference between these Is the vehicle component. The average of the four hours of samples taken at the USP SA match was 43.9 dBA. To calculate the eight hour time weighted· average for the sample points a very conservative approach was taken. Even though the maximum acoustlr signature of a fireann shot only lasts a few mllllseconds and the entire signature lasts about a tenth of a second for the ·, , calculation each sample shot was calculated using the maximum value. In an eight hour sampling using one second intervals there are 28,800 samples. For the calculation the activity level (number of shots) comprised of the maximum sound level reading at that location were input and the rest were input as the average ambient sound level for the range of 35. 7 dBA. This is extremely conservative since pistols and small caliber rifles comprise over three quarters of the shots fired al the the JCSA range. Calculatlons were made for light (1,000 rounds per eight hours) heavy (5,000 rounds per eight hours) and maximum (10,000 rounds per eight hours). The results for the highest value perimeter sample point resulted in 37.8 dBA eight hour average for light activity, 46.3 dBA average for medium activity and 57.0 dBA average for the maximum. Remember this is utilizing maximum value parameters and sampllng every shot. The activity levels are also extremely conseivatlve because for example a high power rifle match with eight competitors shooting eo shots each in the two hour competition is only 2560 shots if four competitions were held consecutively. The highest level of activity Is a USPSA pistol/pistol caliber carbine match and the actual sampling result of 43.9 dBA shows that it is below the heavy calculated value. The calculated values for eight hour averages at each of the rifle and shotgun sample points are in Exhibit 3.

The purpose of the survey was to establish the acoustic signature of firearms at selected perimeter points to calculate a time weighted average decibel level for those points. This was done instead of a conventional time weighted survey because the rifle activity level at the range (number of shots fired) is very low and at even a one second sampling rate would fail to capture some firearms signatures. Additionally many of the perimeter points have significant non range components such as street noise, dogs barking in a kennel, a fire station and a transfer station. With a calculated time weighted average only the acoustic component from the firearms range will be used and the activity level can be changed to show the effect different activity levels will have at the perimeter of the range. As a control a conventional time weighted study was conducted during a high activity level pistol match and the results validate the calculated methodology. On June 28, 2019 maximum decibel readings were taken at eight perimeter locations around the JCSA range when firing rifles and pistols and four locations firing a shotgun. The average ambient level decibel reading was also recorded with an accuracy of plus or minus three dBA. The Sound Level Meter was calibrated with a certified Sound Level Calibrator before the samples were taken and checked after the samples. The rifles were fired on the one hundred yard rifle range, the pistols were fired on the twenty-five yard pistol range and the shotguns were fired on the trap field. The large caliber rifles were fired from the center position of the covered firing line and the smaller caliber rifles from various locations on the covered firing line. The difference between firing locations and the difference between one shot and the next at the <:~me location was found to be between 1-2 dBA. The pistols were fired at various locations within the twenty-five yard ;,,ge and again the location and shot to shot variation was 1-2 dBA. The shotgun was fired on the shooting position closest to the sample location and the shot to shot variation was 1 dBA. The shot to shot and location variation is similar to the manufacturer's accuracy specification of plus or minus 1.4 dB/\ at 94 dBA. To show the relevance of these differences the average person can only repeatedly detect a 5 dBA level change. On July 06, 2019 a four hour sound level sample was taken on one second intervals at a high activity level USPSA match which had pistols and pistol caliber carbines at sample location A. On July 23, 2019 a fifteen minute sound level sample was taken on one second intervals of the ambient acoustic levels at sample locations A and F. These fifteen minute samples were taken in the morning just before shooting started to get a clear sample of range ambient to determine the vehicle addition on the South and East sides. Equipment The Sound level meter used was a Reed Instruments Model R8080 Serial Number 180611191 with Microphone MP-22 No.181416. The Sound level Calibrator used was a Reed Instruments R8090 Serial Number 180923952. Calibrated by Global Test Supply; Certification (273968-00-02; Expiration 30-Apr-2020. Large caliber rifles were a 7.62 X 54 military Rifle and a 50 BMG rifle both using standard ammunition. The 50 BMG is the largest caliber rifle fired on the range and the 7.62 X 54 is representative of rifles with the higher level acoustic signatures . . 1all caliber rifles were 223 Remington using standard ammunition. Pistols were 9mm NATO and 45 ACP using standard ammunition. Shotgun was a 12 gauge using standard ammunition. Results ; ,e points where the samples were taken are shown on Exhibit 1 and the decibel (dSA) readings at the points are shown on Exhibit 2. The average of the ambient fifteen minute samples taken at sample point F was 35.7 dBA. The average of the ambient fifteen minute samples taken at sample point A was 41.5 dBA. The difference between these is the vehicle component. The average of the four hours of samples taken at the USPSA match was 43.9 dBA. To calculate the eight hour time weighted average for the sample points a very conservative approach was taken. Even though the maximum acoustic signature of a firearm shot only lasts a few milliseconds and the entire signature lasts about a tenth of a second for the calculation each sample shot was calculated using the maximum value. In an eight hour sampling using one second intervals there are 28,800 samples. For the calculation the activity level (number of shots) comprised of the maximum sound level reading at that location were input and the rest were input as the average ambient sound level for the range of 35. 7 dBA. This is extremely conservative since pistols and small caliber rifles comprise over three quarters of the shots fired at the the JCSA range. Calculations were made for light (1,000 rounds per eight hours) heavy (5,000 rounds per eight hours) and maximum (10,000 rounds per eight hours). The results for the highest value perimeter sample point resulted in 37.8 dBA eight hour average for light activity, 46.3 dBA average for medium activity and 57 .0 dBA average for the maximum. Remember this is utilizing maximum value parameters and sampling every shot. The activity levels are also extremely conservative because for example a high power rifle match with eight competitors shooting 80 shots each in the two hour competition is only 2560 shots if four competitions were held consecutively. The highest level of activity is a USPSA pistol/pistol caliber carbine match and the actual sampling result of 43.9 dBA shows that it is below the heavy calculated value. The calculated values for eight hour averages at each of the rifle and shotgun sample points are in Exhibit 3. ..... ... :0 :.c X UJ . . .. ,.·· t. .. . .... . ....... t C;§~~e. , : _; ___ 1,.; ,.· ~ ;,_, .. ·,·.~-~--~:at~·-_,-(. ••• • = ... ~. ;~· ···: ... • .... .. .. ... : • '\_ ill: W-mi.L-.

SEPA CHECKLIST SEPA ENVIRONMENTAL CHECKLIST Purpose of checklist: Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This infonnation is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants: This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable" or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision- making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of checklist for nonproject proposals: llimQ], For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJEGT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project,'' "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non-projects) questions in Part B-Environmental Elements-that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal. A. Background lbm.ril 1.
