Purpose of Checklist:
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), chapter 43.21 C RCW, requires all governmental agencies to consider the
environmental impacts of a proposal before making decisions. An environmental impact statement (EIS) must be
prepared for all proposals with probable significant adverse impacts on the quality of the environment. The purpose of
this checklist is to provide information to help you and the agency identify impacts from your proposal (and to reduce or
avoid impacts from the proposal) and to help the agency decide whether an EIS is required.
Instructions for Applicants:
Governmental agencies use this checklist to determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are
significant, requiring preparation of an EIS. Answer the questions briefly, with the most precise information known, or
give the best description you can.
You must answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. In most cases, you should be
able to answer the questions from your own observations or project plans without the need to hire experts. If you really
do not know the answer, or if a question does not apply to your proposal, write "do not know" or "does not apply".
;omplete answers to the questions now may avoid unnecessary delays later.
Some questions ask about governmental regulations, such as zoning, shoreline, and landmark designations. Answer
these questions if you can. If you have problems, the governmental agencies can assist you.
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.
There is a fee required, for the processing of the checklist, see above for the appropriate fee. Please make your check
payable to "Mason County Treasurer".

ESA LISTED SALMONIDS CHECKLIST
This worksheet was designed to help project proponents, and government agencies, identify when a project needs
irther analysis regarding adverse effects on ESA (Endangered Species Act) listed salmonids. Salmonids are salmon,
trout and chars, e.g. bull trout. For our purposes, "ESA Listed Salmonids" is defined as fish species listed as
endangered, threatened or being considered for listing.
If ESA listed species are present or ever were present in the watershed where your project will be located, your project
has the potential for affecting them, and you need to comply with the ESA. The questions in this section will help
determine if the ESA listings will impact your project.
The Fish Program Manager at the appropriate Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) regional office can
provide information for the following two questions.
1. Are ESA listed salmonids currently present in the watershed in which your project will be located?
YES X NO_ Please describe. g �� ( S ���� �� n�'1� ';a14 0"
2. Has there ever been an ESA listed salmonid stock present in this watershed?
YES NO_ Uncertain_ Please describe. SG Uvt e cl S 64 d�
If you answered "yes" to either of the above questions, you should complete the
remainder of this checklist.
?ROJECT SPECIFICES: The questions in this section are specific to the project and vicinity.
1. Name of watershed: S � �J Z + ( � M t t ✓1 �, a
2. Name of nearest waterbody: c ` ( ✓1 �e SC"
C J
3. What is the distance from this project to the nearest body of water: g`I Often a buffer
between the project and a stream can reduce the chance of a negative impact to fish.
4. What is the current land use between the project and the potentially affected water body (parking lots, farmland,
etc.)?
/Z1 4 /, .f h Cv M rrt v, �c, S C van v n t4 r'-e el
5. Is the project above a:
natural permanent barrier (waterfall) YES_ NO
natural temporary barrier (beaver pond) YES _ NO
man-made barrier (culvert, dam) YES_ NO

FISH MIGRATION: The following questions will help determine if this project could interfere with migration of adult
and juvenile fish_ Both increases and decreases in water flows can affect fish migration.
1. Does the project require the withdrawal of:
a. Surface water? YES NO
Amount
Name of surface water body
b. Ground water? YES NO

2. Will any water be rerouted: YES____ NO
If yes, will this require a channel change?

If yes, will this be an infiltration pond or a surface discharge to either a municipal storm water system or a surface
water body? if to a surface waterbody, please give the name of the waterbody.
YES_ NO
4. Will this project require the building of new roads? YES NO x
Increased road mileage may affect the timing of water reaching a`stream and may impact fish habitat
5. Are culverts proposed as part of this project? YES NO
6. Will topography changes affect the duration/direction of runoff flows? YES NO X
If yes, describe the changes.
7. Will the project involve any reduction of the floodway or floodplain by filling or other partial blockage of flows?
YES_ NO
If yes, how will the loss of flood storage be mitigated by your project?
WATER QUALITY: The following questions will help determine if this project could adversely impact water quality.
Such impacts can cause problems for listed species.
Water quality can be made worse by runoff from impervious surfaces, altering water temperature, discharging
contaminants, etc. �4'( A CC( , C' l
1- Do you know of any problems with water quality, in any of the streams,within this watershed?
YES r NO X If yes,describe.
Mason County SEPA Checklist 12
2. Will your project either reduce or increase shade along or over a waterbody?
YES_ NO If yes, describe.
Removal of shading vegetation or the building of structures such as docks or floats often results in a change in
shade.
3. Will the project increase nutrient loading or have the potential to increase nutrient loading or contaminants
(fertilizers, other waste discharges, or runoff) to the waterbody? If yes, describe.
YES _ NO ')C
4. Will turbidity be increased because of construction of the project or during operation of the project?
YES_ NO
In-water or near water work will often increase turbidity.
5. Will your project require long-term maintenance, i.e. bridge cleaning, highway salting, and chemical sprays for
vegetation management, clearing of parking lots?
YES_ NO ')� If yes, please describe.
VEGETATION: The following questions are designed to determine if the project will affect riparian vegetation,
thereby, adversely impacting salmon.
1. Will the project involve the removal of any vegetation from the stream banks:
YES _ NO k
If yes, please describe the existing conditions, and the amount and type of vegetation to be removed.
2. If any vegetation is removed, do you plan to re-plant?
YES _ NO_ If yes, what types of plants will you use?
