Chair, Board of County Commissioners Mason County
Mason County Commissioners
411 North Fifth Street
Shelton, Washington 98584
Dear Mr. Neatherlin:
I am writing this letter as an official reminder that Mason County, Washington, has until
June 20, 2019,to adopt and have the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency
Management Agency(FEMA) Regional Office approve floodplain management measures that
satisfy 44 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 60.3(d) and (e)of the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP)regulations.
Mason County must adopt floodplain management measures, such as a floodplain management
ordinance, that meet or exceed the minimum NFIP requirements (copy enclosed)by June 20, 2019,
to avoid suspension from the NFIP. If suspended, your community becomes ineligible for flood
insurance through the NFIP, new insurance policies cannot be sold, and existing policies cannot be
renewed.
The NFIP State Coordinating Office for your State has verified that Washington communities may
include language in their floodplain management measures that automatically adopt the most
recently available flood elevation data provided by FEMA. Your community's floodplain
management measures may already be sufficient if the measures include suitable automatic adoption
language and are otherwise in accordance with the minimum requirements of the NFIP. The NFIP
State Coordinator can assist you further in clarifying questions you may have about automatic
adoption.
Under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance must be purchased by
property owners seeking any Federal financial assistance for construction or acquisition of buildings
in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs). This financial assistance includes certain federally
guaranteed mortgages and direct loans, federal disaster relief loans and grants, as well as other
similarly described assistance from FEMA and other agencies.
In addition, all loans individuals obtain from Federally regulated, supervised, or insured lending
institutions that are secured by improved real estate located in SFHAs are also contingent upon the
borrower obtaining flood insurance coverage on the building. However,purchasing and maintaining
flood insurance coverage on a voluntary basis is frequently recommended for properties located

outside SFHAs.
Your NFIP State Coordinator and FEMA would like to assist Mason County to ensure it remains in
good standing with the NFIP and avoids suspension from the Program. If your community is
suspended, it may regain its eligibility in the NFIP by enacting the floodplain management measures
established in 44 CFR Section 60.3 of the NFIP regulations. As stated in my previous
correspondence, I recommend you contact your NFIP State Coordinator or the FEMA Regional
Office if Mason County is encountering difficulties in enacting its measures.
I recognize that your community may be in the final adoption process or may have recently adopted
the appropriate floodplain management measures. Please submit these measures to the Floodplain
Management Program at the Washington Department of Ecology. David Radabaugh, CFM,the
NFIP State Coordinator, is accessible by telephone at(425) 649-4260, in writing at 3190 160th
Avenue, Southeast,Bellevue, Washington 98008, or by electronic mail at
david.radabaugh@ecy.wa.gov.
The FEMA Regional staff in Bothell, Washington, is also available to assist you with your floodplain
management measures. The FEMA Regional Office may be contacted by telephone at
(425)487-4600 or in writing. Please send your written inquiries to the Director,Mitigation Division,
FEMA Region X, at 130—228th Street, Southwest, Bothell, Washington 98021-8627.
In the event your community does not adopt and/or submit the necessary floodplain management
measures that meet or exceed the minimum NFIP requirements, I must take the necessary steps to
suspend your community from the NFIP. This letter is FEMA's final notification before your
community is suspended from the Program.
Sincerely,
Rachel Sears, Director

Chapter 14.22 - FLOOD DAMAGE PREVENTION
Article I. - Statutory, Authorization, Purpose, and Objectives
14.22.010—statutory authorization.
The Legislature of the State of Washington has delegated the responsibility to local governmental
units to adopt regulations designed to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of its
citizenry. RCW 36.70A060 and RCW 36.70A170 provides for the designation and regulation of frequently
flooded areas, and chapter 86.16 RCW provides for the administration of National Flood Insurance
Program regulation requirements by local governments.This chapter, as adopted and amended, shall be
known as the Mason County Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance.
14.22.020—Purpose.
(a) Background. The flood hazard areas of Mason County are subject to periodic inundation which can
result in loss of life and property, health, and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and
governmental services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and
impairment of the tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety, and general
welfare.These flood losses could be exacerbated by the cumulative effect of obstructions in areas of
special flood hazards which increase flood heights and velocities, and when inadequately anchored,
damage uses in other areas. Uses that are inadequately floodproofed, elevated, or otherwise
protected from flood damage also contribute to the flood loss.
Mason County has prepared this flood damage prevention ordinance to implement comprehensive
flood damage reduction measures that are necessary for public health safety and welfare and that
allow property owners to protect their property.

Article II. - Definitions
14.22.040—Definitions.
Unless specifically defined below,words or phrases used in this ordinance shall be interpreted so as
to give them the meaning they have in common usage and to give this chapter its most reasonable
application:
"A-Zone"or"zone A" means those areas shown on the flood insurance rate maps(FIRM)as that area
of land within the floodplain which would be inundated by the base flood(100-year or one percent annual

furnished by Mason County,which can be obtained from the Mason County DepaFtMent Division of
Community ^ev „tServices.Application materials may include, but not be limited to, plans in
triplicate drawn to scale showing the nature, location, dimensions, and elevations of the area in
question and existing or proposed structures, fill, storage or materials, drainage facilities, and the
location of the foregoing. Specifically,the following information is required:
(1) Elevation in relation to base flood elevation,of the lowest floor(including basement)of all new
or substantially improved structures;
(2) Elevation in relation to base flood elevation to which any structure "ha -bee*will be
floodproofed;
(3) Certification by a registered professional engineer or architect that the floodproofing methods
for any nonresidential structure meet the floodproofing criteria in Section & 14.22.170(2)4;
and
(4) Description of the extent to which a watercourse will be altered or relocated as a result of
proposed development.
14.22.130—Designation of the administrator.
The administrator as defined in 14.22.040 Definitions is hereby appointed to administer and
implement this chapter by granting or denying development permit applications in accordance with
ordinance provisions. The administrator may consult with other departments and/or agencies with
expertise to assist in permitting decisions.
14.22.140—Duties and responsibilities of the administrator.
Duties of the administrator shall include, but not be limited to:
(1) Permit Review.
(A) Review all development permits to determine that the permit requirements of this chapter
have been satisfied.
(B) Review all development permits to determine that all necessary permits have been
obtained from those federal, state, or local governmental agencies from which prior
approval is required.
Page 10
(C) Review all development permits to determine if the proposed development is located in
the floodway, or special flood risk zone as defined in Section 14.22.040. If located in the
floodway, assure that the provisions of Section 14.22.190 are met. If located in a special
flood risk zone, assure that the provisions of Section 14.22.200 are met.
(D) Review applications for emergency permits.An emergency shall be defined as set forth in
WAC 173.27.040(2)d,which includes the following language:
"Emergency construction necessary to protect property from damage by the elements. An
"emergency" is an unanticipated and imminent threat to public health, safety, or the environment
which requires immediate action within a time too short to allow full compliance with this Ordinance.
Emergency construction does not include development of new permanent protective structures
where none previously existed. Where new protective structures are deemed by the administrator
to be an appropriate means to address the emergency situation, upon abatement of the emergency
situation,the new structure shall be removed or any permit which would have been required; absent
an emergency, pursuant to Chapter 90.58 RCW of these regulations or the local master program, .
shall be obtained."
(2) Use of Other Base Flood Data. When base flood elevation data has not been provided in
accordance with Section 14.22.060, basis for establishing the areas of special flood hazard, the
administrator shall obtain,review,and reasonably utilize any base flood elevation and floodway
data available from a federal, state or other source, in order to administer Sections 14.22.170,
Specific Standards, 14.22.190 Floodways, and 14.22.200 Special Flood Risk Zone.
(3) Information to be Obtained and Maintained.
(A) Where base flood elevation data is provided through the flood insurance study or required
as in Subsection (2), obtain and record the actual (as-built) elevation (in relation to base
flood elevation) of the lowest floor, including basement, of all new or substantially
improved structures, and whether or not the structure contains a basement.
(B) For all new or substantially improved floodproofed structures:
(i) Verify and record the actual elevation (in relation to mean sea level) to which the
structure was floodproofed, and
(ii) Maintain the floodproofing certifications required in Section 14.22.120(b)(3).
(C) Maintain for public inspection all records pertaining to these ordinance provisions.
(4) Alteration of Watercourses.
(A) Notify adjacent communities and property owners, and the Washington State Department
of Ecology and Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, prior to any alteration
or relocation of a watercourse, and submit evidence of such notification to the Federal
Insurance Administration.
(B) Require that maintenance is provided within the alteFed OF Felecated P90"On of said
teFGG Fye so that the flood carrying capacity of the altered or relocated portion of said
watercourse is not diminishedmaintained.
(5) Interpretation of FIRM Boundaries. Make interpretations where needed, as to exact location of
the boundaries of the areas of special flood hazards (for example, where there appears to be
conflict between a mapped boundary and actual field conditions). The person contesting the
Page 11
location of the boundary shall be given a reasonable opportunity to appeal the interpretation as
provided by Section 14.22.150. However, if it is clear from examining the FIRM map that the
subject property or development is located within the area of special flood hazard, the person
contesting the location of the boundary shall apply to FEMA for a map amendment.
(6) Requirement to Submit New Technical Data.
A community's base flood elevations may increase or decrease resulting from physical changes
affecting flooding conditions As soon as practicable but not later than six months after the date
such information becomes available a community shall notify the Administrator of the changes
by submitting technical or scientific data in accordance with this part Such a submission is
necessary so that upon confirmation of those physical changes affecting flooding conditions,risk
premium rates and flood plain management requirements will be based upon current data.
(7) Prerequisites for the Sale of Flood Insurance.
Upon occurrence notify the Federal Insurance Administrator in writing whenever the
boundaries of the community have been modified by annexation or the community has
otherwise assumed or no longer has authority to adopt and enforce flood plain management
regulations for a particular area In order that all accurately represent the
community's boundaries include within such notification a copy of a map of the community
suitable for reproduction clearly delineating the new corporate limits or new area for which the
community has assumed or relinquished flood plain management regulatory authority.
14.22.150—Variance procedure.

of appeals may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to
further the purposes of this chapter.
(6) The administrator shall maintain the records of all appeal and variance including justification
for their issuance, actions and report any variances to the Federal Insurance AdministratoriEM
upon request.
(b) Conditions of Variances.
(1) Generally,the only condition under which a variance from the elevation standard may be issued
is for new construction and substantial improvements to be erected on a lot of one-half acre or
less in size contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed below the
base flood level, providing Subsections(a)(4)(A)through (a)(4)(L) of this section have been fully
considered.As the lot size increases,the technical justification required for issuing the variance
increases.
(2) Variances may be issued for the ,repair or rehabilitation OF resteration-of historic
structures listed on the National RegisteF Of Histeric Places oF the State InveRteFy of HiStE)FiG
—pon
a determination that the proposed repair or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's
continued designation as a historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to
preserve the historic character and design of the structure.
(3) Variances shall not be issued within a designated floodway if any increase in flood levels during
the base flood discharge would result.
(4) Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary,
considering the flood hazard,to afford relief.
(5) Variances shall only be issued upon:
(i) A showing of good and sufficient cause;
(ii) A determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to
the applicant;
Page 13
(iii) A determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights,
additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause
fraud on or victimization of the public as identified in Subsection (a)(4) of this section, or
conflict with existing local laws or ordinances.
(6) Variances as interpreted in the National Flood Insurance Program are based on the general
zoning law principle that they pertain to a physical piece of property; they are not personal in
nature and do not pertain to the structure,its inhabitants,economic or financial circumstances.
They primarily address small lots in densely populated residential neighborhoods. As such,
variances from the flood elevations should be quite rare. Variances shall not be granted for
residential or commercial construction in floodways designated by this chapter.
deteFmined that suEh action will have low damage potential, complies with all etheF vaFffiance
standaMs.
(87) Any applicant to whom a variance is granted shall be given written notice that the structure will
be permitted to be built with a lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation and that
the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the
reduced lowest floor elevation.
Article V. - Provisions for Flood Hazard Reduction
14.22.160—General standards.
In all areas of special flood hazards as shown on the flood insurance rate maps (FIRM)and as defined
in Section 14.22.040,the following standards are required:
(1) Anchoring:
A. All new construction and substantial improvements shall be anchored to prevent flotation,
collapse, or lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and
hydrostatic loads including the effects of buoyancy.
B. All manufactured homes must likewise be anchored to prevent flotation,collapse,or lateral
movement,and shall be installed using methods and practices that minimize flood damage.
Anchoring methods may include, but are not limited to, use of over-the-top or frame ties
to ground anchors. (Reference "FEMA P95 - Protecting Manufactured Homes from Floods
and Other Hazards"guidebook for additional techniques.)
(2) Construction Materials and Methods:
A. All new construction and substantial improvements shall be constructed with materials and
utility equipment resistant to flood damage.
B. All new construction and substantial improvements shall be constructed using methods
and practices that minimize flood damage.
C. Electrical, heating,ventilation, plumbing,and air conditioning equipment and other service
facilities shall be designed and/or otherwise elevated or located so as to prevent water
from entering or accumulating within the components during conditions of flooding.
Page 14
(3) Utilities:
A. All new and replacement water supply systems shall be designed to minimize or eliminate
infiltration of flood waters into the system.
B. The proposed water well shall be located on high ground that is not in the floodway. It shall
be protected from a one hundred-year flood and from any surface or subsurface drainage
capable of impairing the quality of the ground water supply (WAC 173-160-171).
C. New and replacement sanitary sewage systems shall be designed to minimize or eliminate
infiltration of flood waters into the systems and discharge from the systems into flood
waters.
D. On-site waste disposal systems shall be located to avoid impairment to them or
contamination from them during flooding.
(4) Subdivision Proposals:
A. All subdivision proposals shall be consistent with the need to minimize flood damage.
B. All subdivision proposals shall have public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas,
electrical, and water systems located and constructed to minimize flood damage.
C. All subdivision proposals shall have adequate drainage provided to reduce exposure to
flood damage.
D. Where base flood elevation data has not been provided or is not available from another
authoritative source, it shall be generated for subdivision proposals and other proposed
developments which contain at least fifty lots or five acres (whichever is less).
E. Proposals for subdivisions or boundary line adjustments shall not result in any lot which is
nonconforming to the provisions of this chapter.
F. Subdivisions located entirely within a floodplain shall not be allowed increased density
through a performance or clustered subdivision as described in Title 16. A performance
subdivision may be used for parcels located partially within a floodplain provided all
allowed building areas are located outside the floodplain, and all other regulatory
provisions are met. When feasible, lots shall be designed to locate building sites outside
the floodplain.
G. No parcel shall be created that would require a variance before new residential or
commercial construction would be allowed.
(5) Review of Building Permits: Where elevation data is not available either through the flood
insurance study or from another authoritative source (Section 14.22.140(2)), applications for
building permits shall be reviewed to assure that proposed construction will be reasonably safe
from flooding.The test of reasonableness is a local judgment and includes use of historical data,
high watermarks, photographs of past flooding,etc.,where available. Failure to elevate at least
two feet above the highest adjacent grade in these zones may result in higher insurance rates.
14.22.170—Specific standards.
In all areas of special flood hazards and special flood risk zones where base flood elevation data has
been provided as set forth in Section 14.22.060, Basis for establishing the areas of special flood hazard or
Page 15
Section 14.22.140(2), Use of other base flood data, the following provisions are required (unless other
adopted Mason County Codes are more restrictive the more restrictive shall apply):
(1) Residential Constructioni.
A. New construction and substantial improvement of any residential structure shall have the
lowest floor, including basement, elevated one foot or more above base flood elevation.
B. Fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor that are subject to flooding are prohibited or
shall be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by
allowing for the entry and exit of floodwaters. Designs for meeting this requirement must
either be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect or must meet or
exceed the following minimum criteria:
i. A minimum of two openings having a total net area of not less than one square inch
for every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding shall be provided;
ii. The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one foot above grade;
iii. Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers, or other coverings or devices
provided that they permit the automatic entry an exit of floodwaters.
C. If crawlspaces are used and have enclosed areas or floors below the base flood elevation,
then the following requirements apply:
i. The building must be designed and adequately anchored to resist flotation, collapse,
and lateral movement of the structure resulting from hydrodynamic and hydrostatic
loads, including the effects of buoyancy. Hydrostatic loads and the effects of buoyancy
can usually be addressed though the required openings discussed in the next bullet.
Because of hydrodynamic loads,crawlspace construction is not recommended in areas
with flood velocities greater than five feet per second unless the design is reviewed by
a qualified design professional,such as a registered architect or professional engineer.
Other types of foundations are recommended for these areas.
ii. The crawlspace is an enclosed area below the BFE and, as such, must have openings
that equalize hydrostatic pressures by allowing for the automatic entry and exit of
floodwaters. The bottom of each flood vent opening can be no more than one foot
above the lowest adjacent exterior grade. For guidance on flood openings, see FEMA
Technical Bulletin 1, August 2008, Openings in Foundation Walls and Walls of
Enclosures.
iii. Crawlspace construction is not permitted in V zones.Open pile or column foundations
that withstand storm surge and wave forces are required in V zones.
iv. Portions of the building below the BFE must be constructed with materials resistant to
flood damage. This includes not only the foundation walls of the crawlspace used to
elevate the building, but also any joists, insulation, or other materials that extend
below the BFE. The recommended construction practice is to elevate the bottom of
joists and all insulation above BFE. Insulation is not a flood-resistant material. When
insulation becomes saturated with floodwater, the additional weight often pulls it
away from the joists and flooring. Ductwork or other utility systems located below the
insulation may also pull away from their supports. For more detailed guidance on
Page 16
flood-resistant materials see FEMA Technical Bulletin 2, August 2008, Flood Damage-
Resistant Materials Requirements.
v. Any building utility systems within the crawlspace must be elevated above BFE or
designed so that floodwaters cannot enter or accumulate within the system
components during flood conditions. Ductwork, in particular, must either be placed
above the BFE or sealed from floodwaters. For further guidance on the placement of
building utility systems in crawlspaces, see FEMA P-348, Protecting Building Utilities
from Flood Damage, 1999.
vi. The interior grade of a crawlspace below the BFE must not be more than two feet
below the lowest adjacent exterior grade (LAG), shown as D in Figure 1.
vii. The height of the below-grade crawlspace, measured from the interior grade of the
crawlspace to the top of the crawlspace foundation wall must not exceed four feet
(shown as L in Figure 1) at any point.The height limitation is the maximum allowable
unsupported wall height according to the engineering analyses and building code
requirements for flood hazard areas (see the section Guidance for Pre-Engineered
Crawlspaces, on page 7 of FEMA Technical Bulletin 11-01). This limitation will also
prevent these crawlspaces from being converted into habitable spaces.
viii. There must be an adequate drainage system that removes floodwaters from the
interior area of the crawlspace. The enclosed area should be drained within a
reasonable time after a flood event.The type of drainage system will vary because of
the site gradient and other drainage characteristics,such as soil types. Possible options
include natural drainage through porous,well-drained soils and drainage systems such
as perforated pipes, drainage tiles, or gravel or crushed stone drainage by gravity or
mechanical means.
ix. The velocity of floodwaters at the site should not exceed five feet per second for any
crawlspace. For velocities in excess of five feet per second, other foundation types
should be used.
X. Below-grade crawlspace construction in accordance with the requirements listed
above will not be considered basements.

(2) Nonresidential Construction. New construction and substantial improvement of any
commercial, industrial or other nonresidential structure, except those defined as an accessory
structure, shall either have the lowest floor, including basement, elevated one foot or more
above the level of the base flood elevation; or, together with attendant utility and sanitary
facilities, shall:
A. Be floodproofed so that below one foot above the base flood level, the structure is watertight
with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water;
B. Have structural components capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and
effects of buoyancy;
C. Be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the design and methods of
construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice for meeting provisions of
this subsection based on their development and/or review of the structural design,
specifications and plans.Such certifications shall be provided to the official as set forth in Section
14.22.130(3)(B);
D. Nonresidential structures that are elevated, not floodproofed, must meet the same standards
for space below the lowest floor as described in subsection (1)(B) of this section;
E. Applicants floodproofing nonresidential buildings shall be notified that flood insurance
premiums will be based on rates that are one foot below the floodproofed level (e.g. a building
flood proofed to one foot above the base flood level will be rated as at the base flood level).
_(3) Accessory Structures. Construction or substantial improvement of accessory structures, as
defined in Section 14.22.040,shall either have the lowest floor elevated one foot or more above
the level of the base flood elevation;or must meet the following criteria:

every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding shall be provided.
B. The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one foot above grade.
Page 18
C. Openings may be equipped with screens, louvers, or other coverings provided they may
permit the automatic entry and exit of flood waters.
D. Structures shall not be designed for human habitation.
E. Structures shall be firmly anchored to prevent flotation which may result in damage to
other structures.
F. Service facilities such as electrical and heating equipment shall be elevated or
floodproofed.
(4) Critical Facility. Construction of new critical facilities shall be, to the extent possible, located
outside the limits of the base floodplain. Construction of new critical facilities shall be
permissible within the base floodplain if no feasible alternative site is available.Critical facilities
constructed within the base floodplain shall have the lowest floor elevated to three feet or more
above the level of the base flood elevation at the site. Floodproofing and sealing measures must
be taken to ensure that toxic substances will not be displaced by or released into flood waters.
Access routes elevated to or above the level of the base floodplain shall be provided to all critical
facilities to the extent possible.
(5) Manufactured Homes. All manufactured homes to be placed or substantially improved within
the flood plain shall be elevated on a permanent foundation such that the lowest floor of the
manufactured home is one foot or more above the base flood elevation and be securely
anchored to an adequately anchored foundation system to resist flotation, collapse and lateral
movement in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.22.160(1)(B). In unnumbered A
zones, all manufactured homes shall be elevated such that their lowest floor is at least two feet
above the highest adjacent elevation.
(6) Recreational Vehicles. Recreational vehicles placed on sites within the flood plain shall either:
(A) Be on site for fewer than one hundred eighty consecutive days;
(B) Be fully licensed and ready for highway use, on its wheels or jacking system, be attached to
the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices and have no
permanently attached additions.
(C) Meet the requirements of (3) and the elevation and anchoring requirements for
manufactured homes.
14.22.180—AE and Al-30 zones with base flood elevations but no floodways.
In areas with base flood elevations (but a regulatory floodway has not been designated), no new
construction, substantial improvements, or other development (including fill) shall be permitted within
zones Al-30 and AE on the community's FIRM, unless it is demonstrated that the cumulative effect of the
proposed development, when combined with all other existing and anticipated development, will not
increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one foot at any point within the
community.
14.22.190—Floodways.
Located within areas of special flood hazard established in Section 14.22.170 are areas designated as
floodways.Since the floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of flood waters which
carry debris, potential projectiles, and erosion potential, the following provisions apply.
Page 19
(1) Encroachments are prohibited including fill, new construction, substantial improvements, and
other development unless certification by a registered professional engineer or architect is
provided demonstrating through hydrologic and hydraulic analysis performed in accordance
with standard engineering practice that the proposed encroachments shall not result in any
increase in flood levels during the occurrence of the base flood discharge.
(2) Construction or reconstruction of residential structures is prohibited within designated
floodways, except for repairs, reconstruction, or improvements to structures which do not
increase the ground floor area;and repairs, reconstruction,or improvements to a structure,the
cost of which does not exceed fifty percent of the market value of the structure either,(a)before
the repair, reconstruction, or repair is started, or (b) if the structure has been damaged, and is
being restored, before the damage occurred. Work done on structures to correct existing
violations of health, sanitary, or safety codes which have been identified by the local code
enforcement official and which are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions or
on structures identified as historic places shall not be included in the fifty-percent
determination.
(3) If subsection (1) of this section is satisfied, all new construction and substantial improvements
shall comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of Article V, Provisions for
flood hazard reduction.

14.22.210—Standards for Shallow Flooding Areas (AO ZONES).
Shallow flooding areas appear on FIRMS as AO zones with depth designations. The base flood
depths in these zones range from 1 to 3 feet above ground where a clearly defined channel
does not exist, or where the path of flooding is unpredictable and where velocity flow may be
evident. Such flooding is usually characterized as sheet flow. In these areas,the following
provisions apply:
(1) New construction and substantial improvements of residential structures and manufactured
homes within AO zones shall have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated above the
highest adjacent grade to the structure, one foot or more above* the depth number specified
in feet on the community's FIRM (at least two feet above the highest adjacent grade to the
structure if no depth number is specified).
(2) New construction and substantial improvements of nonresidential structures within AO zones
shall either:
Page 23
(i) Have the lowest floor(including basement) elevated above the highest
adjacent grade of the building site, one foot or more above* the depth number
specified on the FIRM (at least two feet if no depth number is specified); or
(ii) Together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, be completely flood
proofed to or above that level so that any space below that level is watertight
with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with
structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and
hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy. If this method is used,
compliance shall be certified by a registered professional engineer, or architect
as 14.22.170.
(3) Require adequate drainage paths around structures on slopes to guide floodwaters
around and away from proposed structures.
(4) Recreational vehicles placed on sites within AO Zones on the community's FIRM
either:
(i) Be on the site for fewer than 180 consecutive days, or
(ii) Be fully licensed and ready for highway use, on its wheels or jacking system, is
attached to the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices,
and has no permanently attached additions; or
(iii) Meet the requirements of(1) and (3) above and the anchoring requirements
for manufactured homes.
14.22.220—Coastal High Hazard Areas.
Located within areas of special flood hazard established in 14.22.060 are Coastal High Hazard
Areas, designated as Zones V1-30, VE and/or V. These areas have special flood hazards
associated with high velocity waters from surges and,therefore, in addition to meeting all
provisions in this ordinance, the following provisions shall also apply:
(1) All new construction and substantial improvements in Zones V1-30 and VE (V if base
flood elevation data is available) on the community's FIRM shall be elevated on pilings
and columns so that:
(i) The bottom of the lowest horizontal structural member of the lowest floor
(excluding the pilings or columns) is elevated one foot or more above the base
flood level;and
(ii) The pile or column foundation and structure attached thereto is anchored to
resist flotation,collapse and lateral movement due to the effects of wind and
water loads acting simultaneously on all building components. Wind and water
loading values shall each have a one percent chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any given year(100-year mean recurrence interval).
A registered professional engineer or architect shall develop or review
Page 24
the structural design, specifications and plans for the construction,and
shall certify that the design and methods of construction to be used are
in accordance with accepted standards of practice for meeting the
provisions of(1)(i) and (ii).
(2) Obtain the elevation (in relation to mean sea level) of the bottom of the lowest
structural member of the lowest floor(excluding pilings and columns)of all new and
substantially improved structures in Zones V1-30,VE, and V on the community's FIRM
and whether or not such structures contain a basement. Mason County Community
Services shall maintain a record of all such information.
(3) All new construction within Zones V1-30,VE, and V on the community's FIRM shall be
located landward of the reach of mean high tide.
(4) Provide that all new construction and substantial improvements within Zones V1-30,
VE, and V on the community's FIRM have the space below the lowest floor either free
of obstruction or constructed with non-supporting breakaway walls, open wood
lattice-work, or insect screening intended to collapse under wind and water loads
without causing collapse, displacement, or other structural damage to the elevated
portion of the building or supporting foundation system. For the purposes of this
section, a breakaway wall shall have a design safe loading resistance of not less than
10 and no more than 20 pounds per square foot. Use of breakaway walls which
exceed a design safe loading resistance of 20 pounds per square foot(either by design
or when so required by local or State codes) may be permitted only if a registered
professional engineer or architect certifies that the design proposed meets the
following conditions:
(i) Breakaway wall collapse shall result from water load less than that
which would occur during the base flood; and
(ii) The elevated portion of the building and supporting foundation system
shall not be subject to collapse, displacement, or other structural
damage due to the effects of wind and water loads acting
simultaneously on all building components (structural and non-
structural). Maximum wind and water loading values to be used in this
determination shall each have a one percent chance of being equaled or
exceeded in any given year(100-year mean recurrence interval).
If breakaway walls are utilized, such enclosed space shall be useable solely for
parking of vehicles, building access, or storage. Such space shall not be used
for human habitation.
(5) Prohibit the use of fill for structural support of buildings within Zones V1-30,VE, and V
on the community's FIRM.
(6) Prohibit man-made alteration of sand dunes within Zones V1-30,VE, and V on the
community's FIRM which would increase potential flood damage.
Page 25
(7) All manufactured homes to be placed or substantially improved within Zones V1-30, V,
and VE on the community's FIRM on sites:
(i) Outside of a manufactured home park or subdivision,
