Re:Wetland Determination for two parcels totaling approximately 5 acres on the east side
of Chima cum Road, in Chimacum, Jefferson County, Washington.
(Tax Parcel Nos. 901114008 & 901114008)
Dear Craig,
This letter has been prepared at your request regarding the potential wetlands on your
property. The Jefferson County critical area mapping system shows potential wetlands
covering the east and northeast portions of your property. Ground-truthing by a biologist is
often required when critical areas are mapped on property where development is proposed so
that the required critical area buffers can be met and maintained. During the initial
walkthrough of the property with you on August 11, 2006, I did not notice any wetlands on
the site especially to the extent that is mapped on the Jefferson County inventory. I did note
the location of the historically channeled east fork of Chimacum Creek and the significant
native vegetation restoration planting that has taken place along the sides of the stream
channel. I visited the site a second time on August 25, 2006 to make a non-wetland
determination and to collect data supporting my conclusion. This determination was
necessary to conclude whether or not you qualifY for a wetland delineation waiver under
Section 3-3 of the Jefferson County municipal code. It was determined that there are no
wetlands on your property so you appear to qualifY for a waver under the code.
The determination was conducted using the Department of Ecology, Washington State
Wetlands Identification and Delineation'Manual (Publication #96-74), as required by the
Jefferson County Critical Areas Ordinance. This manual utilizes the three parameter
methodology to determine the presence or absence of wetlands. The three parameters of
wetland hydrology, hydric soil, and hydrophytic vegetation and positive indicators of all
three wetland parameters must be present for an area under normal circumstances to be

considered a wetland.. The u,se of this manual and the three wetland parameter methodology
on this parcel revealed that the site is under normal circumstances and that there are no
wetlands present on the property and that a wetland delineation will not be required.
Four test holes were conducted along the western bank of Chimacum Creek, in the areas
shown as wetland on the Jefferson County Critical Area maps. At each test hole, a 16-inch
soil pit'was completed to document the presence or absence of hydric (wetland) soil
conditions (dark soil colors with or without mottling) and the presence or absence of
wetland hydrology indicators (indicators include standing water on surface or in test hole;
surface scouring; water stained vegetation; drift lines; and/or oxidized root channels in the
soil). In a 30-foot diameter circle around these test holes, the dominant vegetation was
recorded in order to determine whether or not the hydrophytic vegetation criterion is met.
If there is greater than 50% cover by plants having indicator status of FAC (34-66% of the
time in wetlands-equally likely in wetlands and uplands); FACW (67-99% of the time in
wetlands); and/or OBL (greater than 99% of the time in wetlands), then the hydrophytic
vegetation criteria is met. See attached drawing for approximate location of the test holes
and Data Forms 1-4.
The vegetation in the areas sampled at Test Holes 1-4 are dominated by trees and shrubs that
have been planted and maintainedby North Olympic Salmon Coalition as part of the stream
side restoration project and will be described below. The restoration area appears to have
been planted in the last five to seven years. The tree layer contains a mix of red alder (Alnus
rubra) FAC, black cottonwood (Populus balsamifera) FAC, western red cedar (Thuja
plicata) FAC, Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) FACU, Incense cedar (Calocedrus
decurrens) NL (assumed F ACU), Shore pine (Pinus contorta) F AC, and Paper birch (Betula
pendulus) FAC. The shrub layer contains mixed percentages of red osier dogwood (Comus
sericea) FACW, Nootka Rose (Rosa nutkana) FAC, Pacific ninebark (Physocarpus capitatus)
FACW, western crabapple (Malusfusca) FACW, and hardhack (Spiraea douglasii) FACW.

The herbaceous ground cover is dominated by invasive non"'-natives such as reed canary grass
(Phalaris arundinacea) FACW, creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens) FACW, and tall
fescue (Festuca arundinacea) FAC-.
The soil within the test holes is composed of single and double layer profiles. The soil holes
at Test Holes I and 2 revealed double layer sandy loam profiles with 12 inch surface horizons
(0-12") that have a matrix chroma of 10 YR 3/3 and subsurface horizons (12-16") that have a
matrix chroma of 10 YR 4/3. The soil holes at Test Holes 3 and 4 revealed single layer
profiles that have matrix chiomas of 10 YR 3/3 with the soils in Test Hole 3 consisting of
imported cobbley peat (man made ox-~ow as part of restoration) and the soils in Test Hole 4
consist of sandy loam. These soil profiles are not considered hydric because they have high
matrix chromas at 10 inches; No hydrology or evidence of wetland hydrology was found at
any location on site excluding the actual channel of the stream, which was flowing at the time
ofthe site visits. All of the test holes conducted on site reveal a dominance ofhydrophytic
vegetation but lack hydric soil profiles and wetland hydrology or evidence of wetland
hydrology and are therefore do not meet the wetland criteria.
There appears to have been some attempts to create side channels or ox-bows as part of the
restoration project on the west side of the stream. These areas are very small (approximately
lOx 10 square feet) and are not considered wetland at this time. It appears that they may
become wetland over time ifthe current hydrologic regime remains. It is also possible that
these areas may wash out in heavy storm events in the future. If these areas turn to wetland
they would likely have a smaller buffer than the 150 foot stream buffer that is currently
required from the ordinary high water mark of the stream. There also appears to be a wetland
associated with the stream off site to the north of the property approximately 300 feet down
stream. (See attached drawing of site) This wetland is at least 300 feet away from the site
and will not have any buffers that would extend onto the property in question.
In summary two site visits were made to your property on Chimacum Road in Chimacum,
Washington (Tax Parcel Nos. 901114008 & 901114008) to determine whether wetlands area
present. The Jefferson County critical area mapping maps significant wetlands on the east

and northeast portions of your property. During the initial site visit I was able to determine
that there do not appear to be wetlands present on the property but that the east fork of
Chimacum Creek runs north along the east property line and that there have been many native
plants installed along the banks of the creek as part ofa North Olympic Salmon Coalition
restoration project. A second site visit was made to collect data supporting my conclusion.
The data collected revealed that there are no wetlands present on the property. There is a
dominance ofhydrophytic vegetation present in the restored areas, but wetland soils and
wetland hydrology are not present, therefore the area does not meet the wetland criteria in
that there are no positive indicators present for all three wetland parameters. There appears to
be an off site wetland off site and downstream that is at least 300 feet away and will therefore
not have buffers that extend onto your site.
If you would like to discuss this wetland determination, please feel free to call me at
1-360-876-2403.
