Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Mr. Cairns, Due to technical issues, the SWAC meeting held today (3/24/2022) was not accessible to the public via the Zoom link posted in the Agenda notice. Only SWAG members who received Zoom invitations were permitted to attend. Apparently, no testing was done prior to the meeting to confirm that the public would be able access the meeting. That's a serious problem that I hope you will address. My primary reason for wanting to attend today's meeting was to make the following Public Comments: FIRST The minutes of the January SWAC meeting state that there was a new recycling flyer, and that it was to be made widely available before the new recycling rules take effect on April 1, 2022. No new flyer has appeared since then • in the PT Leader, • in the PDN, • on the Jefferson County website, • in the SWAC minutes, • in the Laserfiche folders for the January and today's meetings • ... Is short, there has been essentially ZERO communication to the public explaining the new recycling rules. So, when people show up over the next few weeks with loads of unacceptable, contaminated recycling, the SWAC has only itself to blame. SECOND The lid of a typical metal can (food) accounts for 14% of the metal that could be recycled from such a can. The current "no lids" policy means that the recycling program is failing to capture 14% of the potential revenue from those cans. Similarly, the metal tops of glass jars are prohibited and therefore the recycling facility is failing to capture additional revenue. Why not provide a separate, small bin where metal lids from all sources could be captured and subsequently compacted into a form that would be acceptable to the metal recyclers? i Please distribute my comments to the members of the SWAC so that they can "hear" what I intended to say via Zoom.

This gift is one of four made to Washington-based Habitat Affiliates totaling $15 million. A $1 million dollar investment in Clallam County's affordable housing goals is a win for everyone. This unprecedented donation to our Rural Habitat Affiliate it is a great foundation to begin our fundraising efforts for infrastructure and development of our Miller Property 4.5 acres located within the City of Sequim. While actual development costs are constantly fluctuating, we estimate $3.2 million before we put a shovel in the ground i to build a home. The goal is to construct 40 affordable/workforce homes. Ms. Scott's gift is a game changer for our Affiliate and will empower our volunteer base to work side by side with families earning sweat equity and preparing to become homeowners. According to the Federal Reserve, the net worth of a homeowner is over 44 times greater than that of a renter; the median net worth of a homeowner is over $230K while the median net worth of a renter is $5,200. Habitat's mission was founded on homeownership, knowing it is a critical driver to build generational wealth and a leading indicator of strong health and education outcomes. Clallam County CEO Colleen Robinson says, "As a rural Habitat Affiliate to be recognized with this gift is incredible. The impact of Ms. Scott's donation to our community will be immediate and the investment will aid in our ongoing work to provide affordable housing to families across our rural communities. Our commitment to meaningful solutions to generational housing issues will be aided immeasurably by this significant gift, and we will use this funding to continue our mandate to build relationships and community through building and repairing homes for the people of Clallam County."

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Greetings Public Servants, I am writing today to ensure executive awareness of the epidemic of violent crime presently afflicting the community of cannabis retailers in Washington State. 1 According to data compiled by the Cannabis Professionals Network and reported by KOMO News on March 19, 2022, some 77 cannabis stores in our state have been victims of violent crime so far this year alone. That is approximately one incident a day. Of these robberies, 90% involved a firearm. Multiple people have died. Unlike every other business, state and federal laws prohibit and constrain cannabis retailers from taking reasonable compensatory measures to protect themselves from unmatched vulnerability to violence and organized criminal activity. Given that Jefferson County on a per capita basis currently claims the most cannabis retail licensees in Washington State, you all should already be acutely aware of this matter. While to my knowledge nascent profoundly misguided defund law enforcement activism has yet to successfully influence budgeting priorities of our county government, policy-makers must still remain wisely cautious not to reduce critical resources to our local law enforcement agencies in future budgetary cycles. It is now quite clear that we have entered what will be a protracted period of real economic contraction that consequently will drive higher rates of crime and social unrest through exacerbated impoverishment of the working-class population. The last County Administrator, by his own personal admission to me in 2009 when I was a representative of UFCW public employees, did not see those budget cuts coming. Please plan appropriately and do not allow yourselves to be caught flat-footed when the economic reality catches up to and impacts our collective bottom line in ensuing years.

Box 61409 MAR 2 5 2022 Vancouver, WA 98666-1409 TRANNFFERseNsCOUNTY COMMISSIONERS March 23, 2022 In reply refer to: TEPF-TPP-1 To: People interested in the Shelton-Fairmount No. 1 Transmission Line Rebuild Project Bonneville Power Administration(BPA)is proposing to rebuild an existing transmission line and replace an aerial fiber optic cable system in your area. This letter explains what is being proposed, outlines our anticipated environmental review process and schedule, and requests your comments. Proposal: BPA is proposing to rebuild its existing 60-mile-long Shelton-Fairmount No. 1 115-kilovolt (kV) wood pole transmission line,which extends from BPA's Shelton Substation in Mason County, Washington to BPA's Fairmount Substation in Jefferson County,Washington(see enclosed project map). The line is the sole point of service for multiple 115-kV substations/customers along the Hood Canal including Potlatch Substation,Duckabush Substation(Mason Public Utility District 1), and Quilcene Substation. The Shelton-Fairmount No. 1 line was built in 1949 and is nearing the end of its service life. It is experiencing performance issues due to its age,its poor grounding, and its overall condition. The line needs to be rebuilt to ensure reliable electric service and the safety of the public and transmission workers. The proposed rebuild project would include rebuilding most of the existing wood pole structures along the line and replacing conductors(the transmission wires), overhead ground-wire and all associated hardware, as well as disconnect switching facilities. New structures would also be added at some locations along the line,and access roads along the line would be upgraded or repaired where needed to accommodate construction vehicles. The proposed project would also involve the replacement of existing fiber optic cable along about 107 miles of existing BPA transmission lines,including the Shelton-Fairmount No. 1 line(see project map). In addition to replacing the fiber optic cable on the Shelton-Fairmount No. 1 line,fiber optic cable would be replaced on existing BPA transmission lines from BPA's Olympia Substation in Thurston County, Washington to the Shelton Substation, and from the Fairmount Substation to BPA's Port Angeles Substation in Clallam County,Washington. Access roads associated with the fiber optic cable replacement in the Olympia to Shelton and the Fairmount to Port Angeles sections would be upgraded or repaired where needed to accommodate replacement activities. Environmental Review: To understand the potential environmental impacts of this proposal,BPA may prepare an environmental assessment(EA). If BPA determines that an EA should be prepared,the EA will describe anticipated impacts to natural and human resources and include mitigation measures that would help avoid or minimize impacts. We are asking for your comments to help determine the issues that should be addressed in the environmental review. During this process,BPA will work 1 " '`"" Port Angeles o o �, r o I ake PortAngeles ° Cr<s�cont Substation o 0%, *E [20 0 525 A Fairmount; Substation ,,„ N N a Claltam County r `6 0 Jefferson County 1 oa " o co _ �./.

As a result, over 1000 individuals were forced to evacuate. In response to Governor Inslee's request, President Biden approved a major disaster declaration Jan. 5, 2022. Since the declaration more than $11.2 Million in federal assistance has been approved for Washington homeowners, business owners and renters. The following is a snapshot of other numbers of significance as of March 22.

It was unfortunate to have to cancel the meeting. We use humans to administer our programs and, as humans,we make mistakes. We have family medical issues that cause us to miss deadlines,we have kids and partners that need our attention,we have good days and not so good days. But the humans that we employ are dedicated to public service and do their best to wear many hats in producing the best goods and services they can. Larger Counties and City's employee many more specialists doing far fewer things and make larger, costly mistakes. The good thing is no one died or was injured yesterday. No Russian missiles fell on us. We were frustrated that things didn't go as planned—or not planned well enough—and resolved to get it right the next time. The roll-out of the public education element of our recycling Contamination Reduction Outreach Program has been delayed but is getting underway shortly. This will be a years long effort so having all of the materials distributed in advance of the April 1 change is not an imperative. The recycling contractor will have an attendant rotating between site to assist customers with the change. And the change is simply going back to the plastic mix that we accepted between 1992 and 2015. We made a mistake in trying to capture the#5 plastics and now we are correcting that. No one will be fined,yelled at, or tasered for not getting the plastics right. They will be informed and encouraged. If this causes someone distress then I would suggest that they take stock of the privilege they enjoy to be annoyed by this as compared to the stress of finding shelter or food for their family. I will make sure your comments are shared with SWAC at the rescheduled meeting. Best regards, Al Cairns Solid Waste Manager Jefferson County Department of Public Works acairns@co.lefferson.wa.us (360)385-9160 X213 From:Tom Thiersch<tprosys@gmail.com> Sent:Thursday, March 24, 2022 3:41 PM To:Al Cairns<ACairns@co.jefferson.wa.us> Cc:jeffbocc<jeffbocc@co.jefferson.wa.us> Subject: Public Comments for SWAC 1 ALERT: BE CAUTIOUS This email originated outside the organization. Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Mr. Cairns, Due to technical issues, the SWAC meeting held today (3/24/2022) was not accessible to the public via the Zoom link posted in the Agenda notice. Only SWAC members who received Zoom invitations were permitted to attend. Apparently, no testing was done prior to the meeting to confirm that the public would be able access the meeting. That's a serious problem that I hope you will address. My primary reason for wanting to attend today's meeting was to make the following Public Comments: FIRST The minutes of the January SWAC meeting state that there was a new recycling flyer, and that it was to be made widely available before the new recycling rules take effect on April 1, 2022. No new flyer has appeared since then • in the PT Leader, • in the PDN, • on the Jefferson County website, • in the SWAC minutes, • in the Laserfiche folders for the January and today's meetings • ... Is short, there has been essentially ZERO communication to the public explaining the new recycling rules. So, when people show up over the next few weeks with loads of unacceptable, contaminated recycling, the SWAG has only itself to blame. SECOND The lid of a typical metal can (food) accounts for 14% of the metal that could be recycled from such a can. The current "no lids" policy means that the recycling program is failing to capture 14% of the potential revenue from those cans. Similarly, the metal tops of glass jars are prohibited and therefore the recycling facility is failing to capture additional revenue. Why not provide a separate, small bin where metal lids from all sources could be captured and subsequently compacted into a form that would be acceptable to the metal recyclers? Please distribute my comments to the members of the SWAC so that they can "hear" what I intended to say via Zoom.

Box 47440 — Olympia, WA 98504-7440— 360-357-2600 For immediate release March 25, 2022 Contact Dan McKernan, project engineer, 360-565-0620 Tina Werner, media relations, 360-704-3270 Emergency slide repair work to begin on SR 112 near Jim Creek in Clallam County 1 PORT ANGELES —One week after reopening State Route 112 near Clallam Bay following a landslide, work begins nearly 15 miles east to reopen a second site near Jim Creek. Washington State Department of Transportation's emergency contractor, Scarsella Bros., will start site preparations on SR 112 at milepost 32 on Monday, March 28. The highway will remain closed to travelers during construction after heavy rains caused it to drop four feet last November. Work includes: • Removing guardrail • Clearing fallen vegetation • Excavating the roadway 20 feet below grade level • Installing drainage • Rebuilding the roadway Repairs are expected to take eight weeks to complete. Travelers will continue to detour around the slide location using US 101 and SR 113. "Our approach to fix the highway near Jim Creek is more long term than previous repairs," said WSDOT Project Engineer Dan McKernan. "Creating stormwater drainage will be key to stabilizing this site and helping water better move through the area." History of slide activity In July 2021, WSDOT completed a $1.4 million emergency contract to reopen SR 112 at the same location after heavy rains caused the roadway to drop 13 feet. Due to the topographical and geological condition of this active slide zone, design and hydraulic engineers have had to take a calculated approach to fixing it.

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Hi Mark, I was just following up on what your team has found and future action steps. When I call anyone in the county on concerns, I seem to hear the same matter they are understaffed and only working on critical issues, i.e., life or death. I hate to think of the damage to the environment because of lack of staffing in this county and or if we need to discuss with the State who may be better prepared on the shoreline management and Geological concerns. A county member explained that they go off of the Geotech reports, and if they are in violation, then something could've been done. I include the Geotech report for the property in question that clearly discusses the potential issues, and this was completed two years ago. Many conditions have changed, and all of the clear-cutting on top of the hill can also add to the amount of water and damage being caused.Three feet of the embankment to lose is concerning when building continues in this area. I think you had someone out for ten days, and I was hoping that there had been enough time for them to have an opportunity to evaluate. Thank you again for your time and for looking into this matter.

I live on Seven Sister's Rd in Port Ludlow.There has been quite a bit of excavation and the start of site prep for two properties surrounding mine and further up the hill on Paradise Bay road. I have called code compliance about one property in particular where The owners and excavators have given no thought to the damage to the embankment and the environment.Yesterday I observed 21/2 to 3 feet of my embankment that has slid off the property and onto the beach.This is a hazard for my property but potential for everyone on this waterfront slope and people who walk the beach. I am sending this with urgency because no one seems to be monitoring any of this activity. I had a geo-tech survey on my property two years ago, and there were no issues called out.The property on 5373 Paradise Bay road is called into question because of the destruction of all the large trees holding up the embankment.This property is a gully that no one can understand how it can be developed without the extreme damage to the waterfront and the risk of a landslide. When you read it, the Geo-tech report for this property is particular that someone needs to be called in on water pooling and other potential problems.The property was laid open for months in the extreme rain, and when I called and filed a complaint-Only then did the contractor sheet the mud hole/driveway. Pull the permit and see the cautions and limited tree removal.A shoreline exemption should not be granted based on the conditions.This property was classified as Hi-Risk SIPZ, and we see the impact. Another reason is excavation on the other side of the property. Massive trees, here again, are being removed, Heavy equipment, and no process for limited tree removal or thoughts to stabilize the embankment. 100 Seven Sisters Road is the address on this site.They plan on pouring concrete slabs for manufactured homes and an RV pad. I am not sure all that is called out on the permit. Next to this property, people living off the grid have built structures, have no permits, and live there full time without any utilities. Where is their greywater flowing? 120 Seven Sisters is the address. Up and down this shoreline off of Paradise Bay road is construction. Who is monitoring the potential hazards? For my embankment to start to collapse calls for immediate action. I will not risk losing my property because of negligence by new property owners and the county's approval without following up.The damage has already been done, but now it's dangerous. I am available to meet on the property to show all the damage. I have included pictures from the top of the property. Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you. 2 te.k." ` STRATUM GROUP Aatitiebic PO Box 2546,Bellingham, Washington 98227 Phone: (360)714-9409 March 30,2020 David Frey 630 Noble Hill Road ] Yakima,WA 98908 dpfreysauce@yahoo.com 140 Re: Geologic Hazard Assessment ` Sair-J County Parcel 821351022 i', 0 41471, Dear Mr. Frey: This geologic hazard assessment was conducted to assess the risk of landslide and erosion hazards on the subject property.It is our understanding that you are planning on constructing a new home, driveway, and septic system on the site. The property is located along a steep shoreline bluff on Paradise Bay. The Jefferson County Public Land Records landslide hazard map indicates that the shoreline bluff on the property is a high landslide hazard area. The shoreline stability map indicates that areas on and near the shoreline bluff are unstable with both old and recent landslides. Based on our geologic hazard assessment, it is our opinion that the proposed development will not be at risk of landslides or erosion as long as it is located at least 40 feet back from the top edge of the shoreline bluff. However,please note that the Jefferson County Shoreline Management Plan requires a 150-foot setback from the ordinary high-water mark(OHWM)and 1 (04 a 10-foot b . This will require the home to be located further than 40 L'c" feet from the top edge of the bluff. The proposed new development will not increase the risk of 0"414.1 landslides or erosion on or off the site as long as the recommendations of this report are • followed. 0 This geologic hazard assessment included an inspection of the property and vicinity, slopes on the property,the shoreline bluff and shoreline and review of available geologic mapping, historical aerial photographs, historical coastal mapping and lidar(light detecting and ranging) imagery of the site and vicinity. Past observations along the shoreline and at sites with similar geologic condition including areas in the vicinity of the subject property also aided in our interpretations. Stratum Group File: 1.27.20 March 30,2020 Jefferson County Parcel#821351022 Geologic Hazard Assessment GENERAL GEOLOGY The Geologic Map of the Port Ludlow and Southern Half of the Ilansville 7.5-minute Quadrangles,Kitsap and Jefferson Counties, Washington (Polenz and others, 2015)indicates that the upland portion of the property adjacent to Paradise Bay Road is underlain by Olympia nonglacial deposits (Figure 1). Below this area,the upland slope is mapped as mass wasting deposits. The shoreline bluff on the eastern edge of the property is mapped as undivided pre- Vashon sediment. �ilk 411 ()0'4c, 1 WiN:4 ,, �I. a 4: +e■ x.. tit s_ ,, .„ ., ,,... ,, , .. . , ., ,, , , s , � i * .�b god ,£e ' q, ."" ,.'1'*,, i' ' t ' ", -1,, t, , t ..,,,Q b of ,i,. ; .4 : , , ,. .,,,t s , 4 rb ,,,,,i; '' , ‘45t, < ,, 1:1,t ['it': 5 I <.k'' 11 Qgas , , ,e ; , . ,.. lli /01, r , „,,, , ,,, t,,, * 14 . .

Our observations are somewhat consistent with the above described mapping. Hand dug test pits on the upland portion of the property revealed medium stiff massive silt with minor clay and sand with scattered pebbles (Figure 2) consistent with Vashon age ice contact deposits mapped just to the north. roil Stratum Group File: 1.27.20 2 March 30,2020 Jefferson County Parcel#821351022 Geologic Hazard Assessment Exposures on the upper shoreline bluff reveal a hard weakly stratified silt unit with minor clay and fine sand(Figure 3).We did not observe any evidence of organics within the deposit suggesting, that this unit is likely glacial related. Exposures on the lower bluff revealed very hard massive slt and clay with scattered pebble to cobble dropstones (Figure 4) consistent with glaciomarine(or possibly glaciolacustrine) drift that we interpret to be Possession age glacial sediment based on stratigraphic position. x ,n C 1: ty,+ r v'^ $ - .rt.. ,. r)° } �4 y psa3 v` , , .` p 5 it � 'q s", �'' d.• f f ''r.i .! +rq'�m°..,,,, e ) 43 " xA '.r1 " €1 5q � 4� ,p� • { ZY, 1 € b. 7 $ 'ec �ryr y ,F v eu ,. r„u,.

Stratum Group File: 1.27.20 11 March 30,2020 Jefferson County Parcel#821351022 Geologic Hazard Assessment GEOLOGIC HAZARD ASSESSMENT Shallow landslides and bluff retreat The steep shoreline bluff is subiect to bluffretreat predominantly consisting of periodic 1-to 3- foot thick shallow failures of the bluff and by slope raveling. The dominant driver of shallow failure is weatherin d ropagatlon of inherent mic within the overconsolidated Olympia and Possession age st t and clay units. _ - ;t the contact between Olympia nonglacial deposits and Possession drift may also play a role in driving slope failures. Along this stretch of shoreline to the south of the subject property,we have observeddyvidespread slom, failures driven by perched water at this contact. Shallow failure and bluff retreat are also driven by periodic wave erosion at the base of the bluff during large storms. However,a large debris wedge at the toe of the slope currently protects the lower bluff from wave erosion. As the middle portion of the bluff retreats from shallow failur;G and raveling,tree roots at the top edge of the bluff slow the uppermost bluff from failing by holding soil in place. Consequently, the top edge of the bluff has overhangs that area as much as 5 horizontal feet.As raveling and shallow failures continue,the uppermost bluff will nrogressivcly become more undercut. Eventually, the top of the bluff and/or trees will collapse. Top of the bluff failures involving the overhanging material may be as large as 4 to 6 feet; that is,top edge of bluff failures will be on the order of 4 to 6 feet back from the top edge of the current bluff when the failures do take place. Based on our observations along the shoreline bluff and the beach conditions and shoreline processes, it is our opinion that long-term average shoreline bluff retreat rate will be on the order . of 2 5. n s per year or less at this site. The top of the bluff will not retreat at an incremental rate,but many years to decades will pass with no retreat at the top edge of the bluff. When failures do take place that cause retreat of the top edge of the bluff, the failures will be as described in the above section on upper bluff failures. Using a long-term average retreat rate of 2.5 inches per year,the,to edge of bluff retreat will less than 25 feet over a period of`140 nears. However, it is our opinion that c home d iaui be located at least 40 feet back from the top edge of the bluff due to the potential for two additional '4-to 6-foot failures over the course of 100 years. This additional distance will also account for potential changes in shoreline conditions.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Based on our geologic hazard assessment, it is our opinion that the proposed development will not be at risk of landslides or erosion as long as it is located at least 40 feet back from the top edge of the shoreline bluff. However,Jefferson County Shoreline Master Program requires a 150-foot setback from the ordinary high-water marlr(OHWM)and an additional 10-foot fir''W''' that will require the home to be located further than 40 feet from the top edge of the bluff. The proposed new development will not increase the risk of landslides or erosion on or off the site as long as the recommendations of this report are followed• Stormwater management:Stormwa •off the driveway and dispersed into vegetated areas consistent with the Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington.

Yard waste/debris:No debris or yard waste should be placed on or near the shoreline bluff.Yard waste and cut vegetation eventually builds up and can kill the vegetation on the slope. It also can form a wet unstable mass that may slide down the slope damaging the slope and increasing the likelihood of a raveling and shallow slope failure.

County Commissioners, Dr Allison Berry, and Willie Bence, Please see the KPTZ listener questions listed below for Monday, March 28th's BOCC Update. Thank you, Lynn Sorensen KPTZ Virus Watch Team Questions for Dr Allison Berry: 1. When will it be OK for a church congregation sitting inside a church sanctuary to SING WITHOUT MASKS? On the positive side the church/fellowship is limiting capacity to 2/3 of normal capacity and this same fellowship has a ventilation system that is of the same quality as a hospital ventilation system. On the negative side, the fellowship does not ask attendees at the Sunday services to prove they are vaxxed and boosted and it is likely that some persons in our congregation choose NOT TO VAXX. And what impact does the possible surge in BA.2 OMICRON have on your answer? 2. I am 78, with type 2 Diabetes, diet controlled. But I've been taking cortisone for knees and a painful shoulder. Should I obtain a second booster shot--(first one was in September)--since I have a possible underlying health condition? 3. Is testing asymptomatic people who are coming into a shared indoor space worthwhile? 4. Our household has 10 ihealth brand home Covid tests thanks to the federal government. Theyall expire in July of this year. Has the FDA extended the expiration date on this brand? 1 Julie Shannon From: Heidi Eisenhour Sent: Friday, March 25, 2022 6:11 PM To: Julie Shannon Subject: FW:JTA Special Meeting 3/29/22 Attachments: Special Meeting Agenda 3-29-22.pdf From: Sara J.

Due to this change,the deadline for Eye on Jefferson will move from Friday evenings to Thursday nights. The Friday evening deadline has proven to be problematic in the past for some. Your organization may still be working on its agenda on Fridays, or even into the next week. We would like to tell readers you are meeting, even if you do not have an agenda finalized. We understand that the Open Public Meetings Act only requires 24 hours notice of a public meeting; but we believe that providing a consistent place for residents to look for public meeting information is a valuable service, not only for residents, but for governmental agencies as well. In this spirit, we would like to request that, as much as possible,you inform us, either by email to news@peninsuladailynews.com or by updating your website, of upcoming meetings by Thursday evening. We recognize that meeting agendas may still be in development at that time, but we hope that meeting dates, times and venues are set by then.

Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them. Good morning commissioners, I was on a call with a local committee this week and was told there was an upcoming opportunity to request to postpone some DNR harvests that are scheduled in the county and request an opportunity to review the properties before harvesting. I'm new to this process of reviewing DNR harvests and not clear on what options we have as the county to hold off and review harvests, but I do think that some of these harvests should not happen and I am happy to review, provide recommendations, and whatever expertise/support I can offer to help if desired. As I think you all are aware, DNR has some outdated policies on what qualifies as"old growth," which doesn't provide adequate protection for forests that have matured enough and have more complex characteristics, but do not quite qualify as old growth and therefore are not exempt from harvesting.These are the properties that I am concerned about and would like to review.There are few forests left that have old growth characteristics or enough ecological complexity to be close to old growth status, so it is important to identify and protect them. I also fully support sustainable timber production in the county as you know, but properties that have higher ecological value should be set aside for low impact or no touch depending on a variety of factors. I've been told one of the harvests is going to be reviewed on Friday,April 1 and I am interested in joining if it would be helpful. Thank you for all your work and research on this topic.

On the next street over from me 321 Eugene St almost directly across from my home, is a group of young men that on every friday evening have a BIG bonfire and get drunk and yell out profanities scaring my grandchildren my 90 year old that lives with me and the rest of the neighborhood to the point that we cannot enjoy our friday evenings in our own backyards. I have called the sheriff many times and talked with Deputy Dawson. He wants me to call on the night it is happening.This has been going on now for two summers. I cannot leave my home on friday nights with my family here because I need to be here to protect them and call the deputy,when these young men start yelling at the top of their lungs terrible profanities and sometimes shooting off guns, and huge bonfires.They are in the wrong neighborhood. They do not own their home they rent.They drink do drugs and are out of control. I am sorry to have to bother you with this issue, I am at the end of my rope and feel unsafe in my own home with my grandchildren and family.

USDA l'' Forest Service DE1 Ai2TMENI OI A RICULIURE Olympic National Forest Forest Service News Release Contact:Amber Brazil (360)765-2255 amber.braziusda.,gov https://www fs_usda.ciov/olympic Deadline Extended for Resource Advisory Committee Membership Applications Olympia, WA(March 28, 2022)— In efforts to have a Resource Advisory Committee that fully represents the Olympic Peninsula the Olympic National Forest is extending the deadline for immediate applications until April 25, 2022. The Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) is a group of 9-15 volunteers that provide advice and recommendations to the Olympic National Forest regarding the allocation of funds, fee proposals, and greater project work across the Forest. The committee role is to improve collaborative relationships among community members and land managers and to provide advice and recommendations to Forest Service land managers concerning projects, funding, and fees. Advisory committee members represent a wide variety of backgrounds and interests. The RAC is required to be balanced and diverse with equal representation from industry, environmental groups, recreation groups, elected officials, and local residents. RAC members must be Washington residents, preferably living in one of the counties on the Olympic Peninsula. Applicants will be evaluated based on their training and experience working with the interest they represent, their demonstrated commitment to collaborative decision-making, and their contribution to the balance and diversity of the RAC. Any i Washington resident with an interest in Olympic National Forest resources, project work, and planning is encouraged to apply. Committee members are expected to attend one to four meetings per year. Meetings will be held either virtually or in-person. All in-person meetings will be held within Thurston, Mason, Jefferson, Clallam, or Grays Harbor Counties. Members are appointed to four-year terms and may be reappointed for additional terms. Members serve without compensation but may be allowed travel expenses for attendance at committee meetings. Meetings are open to the public and generally last one day. Serving as a RAC member is a way to engage with your local land managers, work in collaboration with other community members, and further the Forest Service mission to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation's forests and grasslands. Those interested in applying for RAC membership can find applications on the Olympic National Forest's website by visiting https://go.usa.gov/xzHfm. Completed forms may be submitted by mail to: Olympic National Forest Attn: Amber Brazil 295142 HWY 101 South Quilcene, WA 98376 Applications received by April 25, 2022, will be prioritized for current vacancies. Applications received after April 25, 2022, will be accepted on a rolling basis, and reviewed as committee seats become available.

Styrofoam Recycling*March collection cancelled* The Port Townsend StyroCyclers are sorry to inform the community that all of the March collection events have been cancelled because they do not have use of the truck to get the styrofoam to the recycler in Kent until early April. Please keep your styrofoam clean and dry until their April collections,which will be announced later. The volunteer Port Townsend StyroCyclers group is recycling expanded polystyrene,commonly known as styrofoam,from East Jefferson County residents and businesses.Because of the huge volume processed by their Kent-based recycler,the StyroCyclers can only accept pieces that are white,rigid,clean,and dry,with all tape,labels,paper,and cardboard removed.They also accept clean and dry packing peanuts of all colors and types (separated from the styrofoam),as well as white styrofoam food trays that are clean and free of stains and writing. Thanks to the Fort Worden PDA,the styrofoam is packed and stored at the Fort Worden Putnam bunker,then delivered to Kent once per month thanks to OlyCap and Northwest Harvest food bank trucks.At the Kent facility,a densifier machine uses heat and pressure to convert the styrofoam into a toothpaste-like consistency that cools into heavy,glassy blocks,which are then sold to manufacturers of products such as picture frames,construction details,and surfboard blanks.The densified product is in high demand because it is less expensive than virgin plastic.

New IPCC Report Warns Climate Change is Causing Dangerous Disruption in Nature and Affecting Billions of People 15 "Human-induced climate change is causing dangerous and widespread disruption in nature and affecting the lives of billions of people around the world,despite efforts to reduce the risks.People and ecosystems least able to cope are being hardest hit, said scientists in the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)report..."notes the press release for the the latest IPCC report,"The Summary for Policymakers of the IPCC Working Group II report,Climate Change 2022:Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability",which was released on 2/27/2022.The press release also notes that""There are options to adapt to a changing climate.This report provides new insights into nature's potential not only to reduce climate risks but also to improve people's lives." The report itself states that"Approximately half of the species assessed globally have shifted polewards or,on land,also to higher elevations." The report also highlights that we need to act now to both reduce emissions and adapt to the changes-"There is a narrowing window of opportunity to shift pathways towards more climate resilient development futures as reflected by the adaptation limits and increasing climate risks,considering the remaining carbon budgets."A shorter summary of the report can be found in this World Resource Institute article.

Anticipated Meteorological "Bomb" Documented by King Tide Team \s A d 1.- (� It„°.1 , " I e Iff44- S 7 L. 1PiQ v 1 le ,44. :t I' `,The Local 20/20 King Tide team documented the tides and water levels on 10/2. /21, during a rapidly developing low pressure system,referred to a meteorological"bomb".The event was selected based on the predicted storm surge and strong winds during a time of moderately high tide. Since the winds had largely subsided and the remaining waves were in the i'range,the wave runup appeared to be only about o.i'.With that in mind,this event was a good chance to compare the storm surge forecast to the difference between predicted and observed water levels at the tide gauge. In this case,the surge forecast was very good!See the post linked above for photos of the event and the full analysis.

The Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) is a group of 9-15 volunteers that provide advice and recommendations to the Olympic National Forest regarding the allocation of funds, fee proposals, and greater project work across the Forest. The committee role is to improve collaborative relationships among community members and land managers and to provide advice and recommendations to Forest Service land managers concerning projects, funding, and fees. Advisory committee members represent a wide variety of backgrounds and interests. The RAC is required to be balanced and diverse with 1 equal representation from industry, environmental groups, recreation groups, elected officials, and local residents. RAC members must be Washington residents, preferably living in one of the counties on the Olympic Peninsula. Applicants will be evaluated based on their training and experience working with the interest they represent, their demonstrated commitment to collaborative decision-making, and their contribution to the balance and diversity of the RAC. Any Washington resident with an interest in Olympic National Forest resources, project work, and planning is encouraged to apply. Committee members are expected to attend one to four meetings per year. Meetings will be held either virtually or in-person. All in-person meetings will be held within Thurston, Mason, Jefferson, Clallam, or Grays Harbor Counties. Members are appointed to four-year terms and may be reappointed for additional terms. Members serve without compensation but may be allowed travel expenses for attendance at committee meetings. Meetings are open to the public and generally last one day. Serving as a RAC member is a way to engage with your local land managers, work in collaboration with other community members, and further the Forest Service mission to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the nation's forests and grasslands. Those interested in applying for RAC membership can find applications on the Olympic National Forest's website by visiting https://go.usa.gov/xzHfm.

One of these partners was the SplinterGroup, who have been putting on the popular Port Townsend Woodworkers Show each first full weekend in November since 2006. Another was the Port Townsend School of Woodworking. Our offer gave the SplinterGroup an opportunity to host a special exhibit that exclusively features local wood from Valley View at the November 2022 Woodworkers Show. The School of Woodworking donated their tree to the SplinterGroup's cause. The exhibit will display pieces made from these two trees: a Western Alder and a Western Big Leaf Maple. The show will highlight the possibilities of creating a market for locally harvested community forest lumber for local craftspeople, and will challenge makers to conserve by using all parts of the trees that were harvested. After being harvested, the wood was milled onsite at Valley View. Members of the Strait 2 Turners WoodturninqClub came togather branches from both trees. They'll use some Y of it as training wood in their classes, share more with members of the group, and display pieces made from the wood at the Woodworkers Show. The Seattle Spoon Club also fetched material from the two trees to carve into spoons and bowls for the exhibit, and a carver who uses traditional Native American carving tools to craft pieces in her own style will also contribute. The milled and kiln-dried wood will be offered to local and regional makers with the understanding that it will be used to make a piece or pieces for the 2022 Port Townsend Woodworkers Show.

Earlier this month, more than 300 community members joined us online for 2022 Conservation Breakfast — Listening to the Land: Understanding the Indigenous Landscape of Jefferson County. Guided by moderator David Brownell, Executive Director of the North Olympic History Center and a Land Trust Board member, special guest panelists discussed the past, present, and future of land conservation and protection, focusing on traditional ecological knowledge and practice in east Jefferson County. We were honored to learn from such knowledgeable and engaging panelists and thrilled to gather virtually with so many of our friends, neighbors, and supporters who share our passion for the land. Thanks to their generosity, we were also able to raise more than $28,000 for local land conservation! Read more and watch the video >>> Housing Solutions Network and the Share Our Spaces Campaign According to the Washington Center for Real Estate Research, Jefferson County is + 0 U R +eik one of the most expensive dePA counties in Washington state. Rental vacancy rates in Jefferson County hover between zero and one percent, so even those with 4 stable incomes can't find available housing. Given this, it's not surprising that housing is both an acute local challenge and a major barrier to economic development. As a conservation organization, Jefferson Land Trust is dedicated to preserving the farms, fish, and forests of Jefferson County, but without affordable housing, our community cannot attract the people needed to keep working lands in production and steward the land we love. This problem threatens the legacy of our working lands and our community's future security and vitality. Despite the local housing crisis, enough developed land, houses, and bedrooms actually exist in Jefferson County to supply a substantial proportion of our local workforce housing needs. With this in mind, Housing Solutions Network (HSN), an initiative of the Jefferson Community Foundation, recently launched the Share Our Spaces campaign. Read more about this creative campaign >>> Congratulations to Robin Fitch on Seven Years of Board Service and a New Role at the Land Trust Accreditation Commission! 5 After seven years of dedicated + ' ,_ i e and inspired service, our friends � ' `o��� � and colleague Robin Fitch has stepped down from the Jefferson �' Land Trust's Board in order to train as a commissioner at the Land Trust Accreditation Commission (LTAC), an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance that is charged with ensuring that accredited land trusts are held to the highest national standards for excellence and conservation permanence. We wish to thank Robin for her years of volunteer service and congratulate her on this exciting new step. She joined the Board in 2015, and was Board President for much of her tenure. She was also actively involved in the Finance Committee, the Conservation Projects Committee, and the Governance Committee, which manages our policies and practices. We're glad to report that Robin will continue to work with the Land Trust at our Duckabush Riparian Forest Preserve, where she's been a longtime Preserve Steward. Robin points out that Jefferson Land Trust makes an "uncommon" amount of room for people who live in the area to become engaged as volunteers. "It's not just the Board members who can contribute," she emphasizes. "You can go get your hands dirty at work parties, or you can be a Preserve Steward, or you can volunteer on a committee or in the office. That's unusual for land trusts, to be so open for the community to come in and be part of the movement. It's something to be cherished." 6 Read more >>> "Hiking With a Local" Video: Duckabush River Trail Recently, we featured a story about Greg Brotherton's Hiking with a Local video project and shared the first and second videos of the series.
