Dear Mr. Jacobsen:
Our office has received a copy of your State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA)
. environmental checklist. The proposed work described within the SEPA checklist
includes constructing a road on Lincoln Street and McKinley Street in Irondale,
Jefferson County, Washington.
According to our maps, wetlands exist within your project area. If you are
proposing to fill, grade, mechanically land clear, or excavate in these wetlands, your
project will require authorization from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) under
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. A Section 404 permit is required for the discharge
of dredged or fill material in waters of the United States, including wetlands.
The term "discharge of fill material" means the addition of any material used
for the primary purpose of creating dry land or of changing the elevation of water of the
United States, including wetlands. The placement of pilings constitutes a discharge of
fill material when such placement has or would have the effect of a discharge of fill
material.
The term "discharge of dredged material" means the addition, including
redeposition, of dredged material, runoff from a contained land or water disposal area,
and any addition, including redeposition, of excavated material. These activities can
include grading, mechanized land clearing, ditching, channelization, and other
excavation activities that destroy or degrade water of the United States, including
wetlands.

The term "wetlands" means those areas that are inundated or saturated by
surface or ground water at a frequ~ncy and duration sufficient to support, and that
under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted
for life in saturated soil conditions.
If any filling, grading, excavation, or mechanized land clearing is proposed on
the property where wetlands are involved, a Section 404 permit is required prior to the
commencement of any work in the wetlands or other waters of the United States.
A Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application is being enclosed with this letter to
facilitate the permitting process. If you have questions regarding our permitting
program, please contact Mr. Jack Gossett at (206) 764-6902. If you have any
questions regarding this letter, please contact Ms. Joelle DonTigny at telephone
(206) 764-5528.
Sincerely,
