Purpose of checklist:
Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your
proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization
or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental
impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal.
Instructions for applicants: rhei f
This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please
answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult
with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable" or
"does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown.
You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate
answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision-
making process.
The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of
time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal
or, its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your
answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant
adverse impact.
Instructions for Lead Agencies:
Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to
evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse
impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to
make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is
responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents.

SUBJECT: Tacoma Power Shoreline Use Permit Application Review:
Lot 9, Plat of Lake Cushman No. 11
(Tax Parcel No. 42332-50-00009)
REFERENCE: Project No. 2019-259/SUP442
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hagen,
Thank you for applying for a Shoreline Use Permit(SUP)for your existing shoreline structures,
located on Tacoma Power property adjacent to and associated with your development lot No. 9,
Division 11, Lake Cushman. As you know, Tacoma Power's Cushman Hydroelectric Project
area (Project) includes all lands located waterward of the 742-foot elevation Project boundary
on Lake Cushman. Tacoma Power also retains a 10-foot lateral strip on your leased
development lot adjacent to the Project boundary(see enclosure). All structures and uses
located waterward of 742 feet elevation, and all structures and fill placed within the 10-foot
lateral strip require authorization from Tacoma Power.
Tacoma Power has reviewed your SUP application package for conformance with Tacoma
Power's Shoreline Use Specifications and Permitting Guidelines (SUSPG)and has the following
comments:
Items Reviewed:
• SUP.application package dated December 11, 2019, received December 16, 2019,
• Drawings, by James Farley, P.E., dated December 10, 2019 (enclosed)with redlines by
Tacoma Power, and
• Tacoma Power records.
1. Astro-turf lawn. To be removed. Redlined into the above referenced drawings is an
existing astroturf lawn located between the development lot and the shoreline. Astro-turf is a
prohibited use per Section 5 of the SUSPG. The astroturf must be removed from Tacoma
Power property. Native plants may be planted, but no lawn may be planted.
2. Cottage stone and rock bulkhead—three sections,with drainage pipes. Allowed, with
conditions. Redlined into the above referenced drawings are two existing cottage stone
bulkhead sections and one existing rock bulkhead section with drainage pipes which you
propose to retain.
Conditions: The bulkhead sections will be permitted as Prior Existing Uses, per
Section 4.4 of the SUSPG, and subject to the conditions therein.

3. Concrete and cottage stone steps —two sections. Allowed,with conditions. Redlined
into the above referenced drawings are two existing sets of steps. The northernmost set is
concrete and cottage stone and provides access from the development lot to the stone
patio. The second set is concrete and provides access from the development lot to the fixed
pier and lakebed.
Conditions: The two sets of steps will be permitted as a "Prior Existing Use" per Section
4.4 of the SUSPG, and subject to the conditions therein.
4. Cottage stone retaining walls—two sections. Allowed,with conditions. Redlined into
the above referenced drawings are two existing cottage stone retaining walls located behind
the bulkheads.
Conditions: The two retaining walls will be permitted as a "Prior Existing Uses" per
Section 4.4 of the SUSPG, and subject to the conditions therein.
5. Stone Patio. Allowed, with conditions. Redlined into the above referenced drawings is an
existing stone patio located between the northernmost section of retaining wall and
bulkhead.
Conditions: The two retaining walls will be permitted as a "Prior Existing Uses" per
Section 4.4 of the SUSPG, and subject to the conditions therein.
6. Fire pit. Allowed. Redlined into the above referenced drawings is an existing movable fire
pit. You propose to retain the fire pit on the patio year-around. Fire pits no larger than 3 feet
in internal diameter are an allowed use per Section 4.2 of the SUSPG.
7. Fixed pier. Allowed, with conditions. As shown in the above referenced drawings, you
propose to retain your existing fixed pier supported by nine wood pilings and four concrete-
filled aluminum pilings with wood post extenders. The pilings are set on pre-formed concrete
footings. Based on the measurements provided, the total overwater coverage is
approximately 370 square feet.
Conditions:
a. The existing fixed pier will be permitted as a Prior Existing Use, per Section 4.4 of
the SUSPG, and subject to the conditions therein.
b. When the 50% repair/replacement threshold outlined in the conditions of Section 4.4
above are met, then the structure will be required to be reduced to begin to come
into compliance with Tacoma Power's 300-square foot overwater coverage
maximum allowance. Work with Tacoma Power to determine a reduction strategy
when that time comes.
8. Moorinq buoy. To be removed or converted. Not shown in the above referenced
drawings, nor marked on the application, is an existing mooring buoy. Per Appendix B
Section 6 of the SUSPG, applicants are allowed a dock or a buoy, not both. However,
Tacoma Power will�aJlo_w you!onvert the " buoy anchor,into a "mooring buo
altern .g". Please indicate to Tacoma Power whether you will remove or convert Your
existing mooring buoy. See enclosed diagrams.
9. Debris. To be removed. All debris, concrete, abandoned anchors and building materials,
etc. located on Tacoma Power's property waterward of 742 feet elevation and on the
lakebed fronting your development lot must be removed.

\ Other Information:
y 10. Tacoma's 10-foot lateral strip area. Tacoma retains a 10-foot lateral strip on the
development lots adjacent to the 742-foot elevation boundary. Any permanent structures or
fill in this area must be approved by Tacoma. You currently have retaining walls, a hot tub,
stairs, fill, and astro-turf located in the 10-foot lateral strip area.
11. Cultural Resources Survey. Not required at this time. A Cultural Resources Survey
(CRS) is not required at this time because the ground disturbance that occurred when your
project was constructed was prior to Tacoma Power's Hydroelectric License survey
requirement. Please be aware that a CRS will be required, in the future, before any ground
disturbing activities will be permitted.
Next Steps:
12. Update drawings. (Applicant) Updated drawings which show all structures and uses
located on Tacoma Power Project lands and which contain all the required elements
detailed in Section 7.1.6 of the SUSPG, including relevant property boundaries, are required
before your application can be approved. Please see the attached redlined drawings for
Tacoma Power's notes as well as the enclosed example plans to help you understand the
information we need. Additionally, please have your engineer correct the notations
associated with waterward-most beam and four aluminum pilings associated with your fixed
pier. The beam appears to be a log, not 2x10 beams, and the pilings are topped with wood
post extenders (Figure 1). These items must be shown and the attachment methods fully
described. Once updated, please provide a copy to Tacoma Power for review and approval.
13. Required regulatory permits or waivers. (Applicant) Once Tacoma Power approves your
updated plans, we will provide you with a letter allowing you to move forward with the
regulatory permit applications for the structures and uses on Tacoma Power Project lands.
Regulatory permits or written waivers will be required from Mason County, the WA
Department of Fish and Wildlife, and the US Army Corps of Engineers for the retention of
your shoreline structures and conversion or removal of your mooring buoy. Per Section 1 of
the SUSPG, copies of the necessary regulatory permits are required before Tacoma Power
can issue you authorization to occupy and use our Project lands.
14. Short-term License. (Tacoma Power) After you have provided copies of the required
regulatory permits, Tacoma Power will issue you a short-term license to perform the
required removal work described above.
15. Shoreline Use Permit. (Tacoma Power) Upon verification that you completed the
requirements of the short-term license, Tacoma Power will issue a 5-year Shoreline Use
Permit for the allowed uses and structures.
Please do not commence any work on Tacoma Power Project lands, waterward of 742
feet el
evation or within the 10-foot lateral strip area, without written permission to do so
from Tacoma Power.
