After review of your submitted Joint Aquatic Permit Application (JARPA) forms that we received on August 14, 2017, Mason County concludes that the proposed shellfish farm operation, on marine tidelands in Case Inlet, does not constitute development under the Mason County Shoreline Master Program and does not cause substantial interference with the normal public use of the water (AGO 2007 No. 1). Therefore, a Substantial Development Permit is not required nor a letter of Shoreline Exemption. Mason County has determined that the proposed shellfish farm is consistent with the Mason County Shoreline Master Program Policies and Use Regulations for Aquaculture and the Shoreline Management Act. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.

Is any part of the project area within a 100-year floodplain? of eM ❑x Yes ❑ No ❑ Don't know 51. Briefly describe the vegetation and habitat conditions on the property. hei This public tideland property extends from approximately +3 feet(ft) mean lower low water (MLLW) down to extreme low water (ELW) at approximately -5 ft MLLW. Proposed culture operations would extend from approximately +1 ft MLLW to ELW. See Attachment A for the JARPA maps. Based on multiple surveys (2008, 2010, 2017), the beach consists of uniform fine sand below +1 ft MLLW elevation (Allen, pers. comm., 2017). There is little to no super-benthic structure on this tideland. Seasonal green algae (Ulva and/or Ulvaria sp.)were observed at elevations above the +2 ft MLLW contour as the beach surface develops more gravel and cobble. In addition, some patchy Sarcodiotheca sp. was observed lower in the intertidal. There was no other vegetation observed. See Attachment B for photographs of the habitat conditions. There are no eelgrass beds or other primary habitat features, which was confirmed through a site survey and a review of DNR (2017) and Ecology (2017) on-line resources. According to Ecology (2017), the closest confirmed eelgrass habitat is located more than 400 ft to the south. The closest documented eelgrass by DNR (2017) is over 10,000 ft away between Rocky Bay and Vaughn Bay. Fringe kelp and salt marsh habitat identified by Ecology (2017) is also located in the southern portion of Stretch Island, but not associated with the proposed project location.There is no armoring of the adjacent privately held upland (above mean high water) and the mean high water line is delineated by large drift logs. The uplands are vegetated with some clearing for the 9 single family residences along the shoreline. The 2016 photographs of the shoreline by Ecology (2017) are provided in Attachment B. Based on a comparison of the shoreline oblique photographs, most of the development along the shoreline occurred between 1992 and 2001. References: Allen, B. 2017.

Part 6-Project Description 6a. Briefly summarize the overall project. You can provide more detail in 6b. h[ eM The proposed project is a 4.6-acre geoduck aquaculture farm on DNR-owned tidelands in Mason County (Sheet 1 —Vicinity Map; Attachment A). Geoduck will be planted between +1.0 ft and down to ELW; Sheet 2— Project Area, Sheet 3— Cross-Section, and Sheet 6— Oblique Aerial). Juvenile "seed" clams will be planted by hand and protected up for 24-30 months. Temporary predator protection will be provided by flexible mesh sleeves made from high density polyethylene (HDPE), black in color. Polyvinyl chloride (or PVC) tubes and predator exclusion nets will not be used. Predator protection is removed once the geoducks are large enough and they are left to grow unprotected until harvest. Total growing time is approximately 4 to 7 years. After the clams reach market size, they will be harvested by hand. All access is via boat; no upland access. 6b. Describe the purpose of the project and why you want or need to perform it. hf elal The purpose of this project is to grow geoduck clams for sale for human consumption. The tidelands contain the appropriate conditions for geoduck cultivation, including sandy substrate with little-to-no structured habitat. No tideland alterations are proposed except for the intermittent activities of planting, maintenance, and harvest of geoduck clams. 6c. Indicate the project category.

Include specific construction methods and equipment to be used. hf elpl • Identify where each element will occur in relation to the nearest waterbody. • Indicate which activities are within the 100-year floodplain. No permanent construction is proposed. The geoduck farm would plant cultured juvenile geoduck"seed" by hand between the +1 ft MLLW elevations to ELW contour. Please see Attachment A for a map of the proposed culture area. Seeded shellfish will be protected using flexible mesh sleeves for temporary predator exclusion. The mesh sleeves are installed by hand using low volume and low pressure pumped seawater to prepare the tube location for installation of the flexible mesh sleeve, which is pushed into the beach manually to a depth of 6 to 7 inches, leaving 4 to 5 inches emergent.Typically, tubes are installed at a density of one tube per 1 to 1.3 square feet and planted with 3 to 4 seed clams. The top of the mesh tube is left open. Temporary predator exclusion materials remain for 24 to 30 months. The site is maintained through site visits to ensure that gear is maintained in place, and then the gear is removed for the remainder of the grow-out cycle (2 to 5 years). Crop grow-out is expected to take 4 to 7 years, at which time harvest begins. Geoduck clams will be harvested using either dry (i.e., during low tide exposure) or wet (i.e., diving) harvest methods. Dive harvest is the majority harvest activity. Market size clams are harvested individually by hand with a low- pressure water pump. Once harvested, a new crop is planted and the aforementioned process is repeated. Farming activities typically occur during low tide conditions (minus tides below MLLW). These occur during daylight hours April-September and during the night from October-March. In addition, dive planting or harvest could occur during high tides. The MLLW elevation (near the top edge of the farm) is underwater 90% of the time throughout the year. Depending on seed availability, the farm may be planted on a rotational basis. The completed farm will cover 4.6 acres. All access is via boat; no upland access. 6f. What are the anticipated start and end dates for project construction?

Describe how the project is designed to avoid and minimize adverse impacts to the aquatic environment. [help] ❑ Not applicable The project will take place within Case Inlet of Puget Sound. The following conservation measures will apply to the proposed project, which are consistent with the NWP 48 conditions that are applicable to geoduck clam operations (Corps 2015, NMFS 2016, USFWS 2016). Note that conditions associated with eelgrass habitat, kelp habitat, salt marsh habitat, or shellfish aquaculture operations that are not associated with geoduck aquaculture were removed from the conditions below. These conditions are not relevant for the Stretch Island Geoduck Farm because these habitats are not present or the activities are not associated with the proposed action. In addition, no land vehicles will be used in the project area. Finally, predator exclusion nets will be used, and conditions associated with predator exclusion nets are not included below. 1. Unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car bodies, asphalt, tires) shall not be discharged or used as fill (e.g., used to secure nets, create nurseries, etc.). 2. For'new' activities only, activities shall not occur above the tidal elevation of+7 feet (MLLW) if the area is listed as documented surf smelt (Hypomesus pretiosus) spawning habitat by WDFW. See Attachment B for a map of surf smelt spawning habitat. 3. For 'new' activities only, activities shall not occur above the tidal elevation of+5 feet (MLLW) if the area is documented as Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes hexapterus) spawning habitat by the WDFW. See Attachment B for a map of Pacific sand lance spawning habitat. 4. If removing equipment or material (i.e., culture tubes), or conducting harvest activities, within a documented or potential spawning area for Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi) outside the approved work window (see Seattle District Corps website), the work area shall be surveyed for the presence of herring spawn prior to the activity occurring.Vegetation, substrate, and materials (nets, tubes, etc.) shall be inspected. If herring spawn is present, these activities are prohibited in the areas where spawning has occurred until such time as the eggs have hatched and herring spawn is no longer present. A record shall be maintained of spawn surveys including the date and time of surveys; the area, materials, and equipment surveyed; results of the survey, etc. The Corps and the Services shall be notified if spawn is detected during a survey. The record of spawn surveys shall be made available upon request to the Corps and the Services. 5. All shellfish gear(e.g., marker stakes, rebar, and culture tubes) that is not immediately needed or is not firmly secured to the substrate will be moved to a storage area landward of MHHW prior to the next high tide. 6. All pump intakes (e.g., for washing down gear) that use seawater shall be screened in accordance with NMFS and WDFW criteria. Note: This does not apply to work boat motor intakes (jet pumps) or through-hull intakes. 7. For boats and other gas-powered vehicles or power equipment that cannot be fueled in a staging area 150 feet away from a waterbody or at a fuel dock, fuels shall be transferred in Environmental Protection Agency EPA -com liant portable fuel containers 5 gallons or smaller at a time during ORIA-16-011 Page 8 of 14 refilling.

A spill kit shall be available and used in the event of a spill. All spills shall be reported to the Washington Emergency Management Office at (800) 258-5990. All waste oil or other clean-up materials contaminated with petroleum products will be properly disposed of off-site. 8. All boats or vehicles operated within 150 feet of any stream, waterbody, or wetland shall be inspected daily for fluid leaks before leaving the vehicle staging area. Any leaks detected shall be repaired in the vehicle staging area before the vehicle resumes operation and the leak and repair documented in a record that is available for review on request by the Corps and Services. 9. The direct or indirect contact of toxic compounds including creosote, wood preservatives, paint, etc. within the marine environment shall be prevented. [This does not apply to boats] 10. All culture tubes shall be clearly, indelibly, and permanently marked to identify the permittee name and contact information (e.g., telephone number, email address, mailing address). 11. All equipment and gear(e.g., culture tubes) shall be tightly secured into the sediment to prevent them from breaking free. 12. All foam material (whether used for floatation of for any other purpose) must be encapsulated within a shell that prevents breakup or loss of foam material into the water and is not readily subject to damage by ultraviolet radiation or abrasion. 13. Tires shall not be used as part of above and below structures or where tires could potentially come in contact with the water(e.g., floatation, fenders, hinges). 14. At least once every three months, beaches in the project vicinity will be patrolled by crews who will retrieve debris that escapes from the project area. Within the project vicinity, locations will be identified where debris tends to accumulate due to wave, current, or wind action, and after weather events these locations shall be patrolled by crews who will remove and dispose of shellfish related debris appropriately. A record shall be maintained with the following information and the record will be made available upon request to the Corps, NMFS, and USFWS: date of patrol, location of areas patrolled, description of the type and amount of retrieved debris, other pertinent information. 15. When performing other activities on-site, the grower shall routinely inspect for and document any fish or wildlife found entangled in nets or other shellfish equipment. In the event that fish, bird, or mammal is found entangled, the grower shall: (1) provide immediate notice (within 24 hours)to WDFW(all species), Services (ESA listed species) or Marine Mammal Stranding Network (marine mammals), (2) attempt to release the individual(s)without harm, and (3) provide a written and photographic record of the event, including dates, species identification, number of individuals, and final disposition, to the Corps and Services.

LtLeM According to the Priority Habitats and Species (PHS) website (WDFW 2017a), there were documented surf smelt identified in 1993 and 1994. The proposed project will avoid surf smelt spawning areas because culture is proposed only as high as +1 ft MLLW and surf smelt typically spawn at a +7 ft MLLW elevation. According to the Conservation Measures developed during NWP 48 consultation (Section 8a), avoidance of the +7 ft MLLW elevation during operations is a suitable conservation measure for surf smelt. In terms of other forage fish species, the closest Pacific herring spawning and pre-spawning holding areas is located 10.5 miles and 9.5 miles to the south (the Squaxin Pass stock), respectively (WDFW 2017b). If Pacific herring spawn in the proposed project area, the location of spawn deposition will be avoided until the eggs have hatched and herring spawn is no longer present (Section 8a). Finally, there is wild geoduck identified near the Stretch Island Geoduck Farm (WDFW 2017a). According to surveys by DNR with the Squaxin Island Tribe, the wild population on the site is so low that a harvest agreement will not be pursued under Section 6.3 (Larson, pers. comm., 2017).

Also note that an application for the Stretch Island Geoduck Farm was submitted in 2009,and an exemption letter was provided at that time(see the attachment to this letter).However,the farm was never pursued due to a pending lease agreement with DNR.The lease agreement is in place,and the project is now moving forward. Brian Allen intends to pursue a shoreline exemption for shellfish aquaculture through Mason County for both farms.Based on a review of the current Shoreline Master Program(SMP),it appears that shellfish aquaculture is still identified as exempt.If the farms are determined to not meet the exemption requirements under the current SMP,please let us know so that we can prepare individual Biological Assessments for the projects.

Briefly describe the vegetation and habitat conditions on the property. h[ elp] This public tideland property extends from approximately +3 feet (ft) mean lower low water (MLLW) down to extreme low water (ELW) at approximately -5 ft MLLW. Proposed culture operations would extend from approximately +1 ft MLLW to ELK See Attachment A for the JARPA maps. Based on multiple surveys (2008, 2010, 2017), the beach consists of uniform fine sand below+1 ft MLLW elevation (Allen, pers. comm., 2017). There is little to no super-benthic structure on this tideland. Seasonal green algae (Ulva and/or Ulvaria sp.) were observed at elevations above the +2 ft MLLW contour as the beach surface develops more gravel and cobble. In addition, some patchy Sarcodiotheca sp. was observed lower in the intertidal. There was no other vegetation observed. See Attachment B for photographs of the habitat conditions. There are no eelgrass beds or other primary habitat features, which was confirmed through a site survey and a review of DNR (2017) and Ecology (2017) on-line resources.According to Ecology (2017), the closest confirmed eelgrass habitat is located more than 400 ft to the south. The closest documented eelgrass by DNR (2017) is over 10,000 ft away between Rocky Bay and Vaughn Bay. Fringe kelp and salt marsh habitat identified by Ecology (2017) is also located in the southern portion of Stretch Island, but not associated with the proposed project location. There is no armoring of the adjacent privately held upland (above mean high water) and the mean high water line is delineated by large drift logs. The uplands are vegetated with some clearing for the 9 single family residences along the shoreline. The 2016 photographs of the shoreline by Ecology (2017) are provided in Attachment B. Based on a comparison of the shoreline oblique photographs, most of the development along the shoreline occurred between 1992 and 2001. References: Allen, B. 2017.

Part 6—Project Description 6a. Briefly summarize the overall project. You can provide more detail in 6b. hf m The proposed project is a 4.6-acre geoduck aquaculture farm on DNR-owned tidelands in Mason County (Sheet 1 —Vicinity Map; Attachment A). Geoduck will be planted between +1.0 ft and down to ELW; Sheet 2— Project Area, Sheet 3—Cross-Section, and Sheet 6—Oblique Aerial). Juvenile "seed" clams will be planted by hand and protected up for 24-30 months. Temporary predator protection will be provided by flexible mesh sleeves made from high density polyethylene (HDPE), black in color. Polyvinyl chloride (or PVC) tubes and predator exclusion nets will not be used. Predator protection is removed once the geoducks are large enough and they are left to grow unprotected until harvest. Total growing time is approximately 4 to 7 years. After the clams reach market size, they will be harvested by hand. All access is via boat; no upland access. 6b. Describe the purpose of the project and why you want or need to perform it. h[�) The purpose of this project is to grow geoduck clams for sale for human consumption. The tidelands contain the appropriate conditions for geoduck cultivation, including sandy substrate with little-to-no structured habitat. No tideland alterations are proposed except for the intermittent activities of planting, maintenance, and harvest of geoduck clams. 6C. Indicate the project category.

Include specific construction methods and equipment to be used. hf ela] • Identify where each element will occur in relation to the nearest waterbody. • Indicate which activities are within the 100-year floodplain. No permanent construction is proposed. The geoduck farm would plant cultured juvenile geoduck"seed" by hand between the +1 ft MLLW elevations to ELW contour. Please see Attachment A for a map of the proposed culture area. Seeded shellfish will be protected using flexible mesh sleeves for temporary predator exclusion. The mesh sleeves are installed by hand using low volume and low pressure pumped seawater to prepare the tube location for installation of the flexible mesh sleeve, which is pushed into the beach manually to a depth of 6 to 7 inches, leaving 4 to 5 inches emergent. Typically, tubes are installed at a density of one tube per 1 to 1.3 square feet and planted with 3 to 4 seed clams. The top of the mesh tube is left open. Temporary predator exclusion materials remain for 24 to 30 months. The site is maintained through site visits to ensure that gear is maintained in place, and then the gear is removed for the remainder of the grow-out cycle (2 to 5 years). Crop grow-out is expected to take 4 to 7 years, at which time harvest begins. Geoduck clams will be harvested using either dry (i.e., during low tide exposure) or wet (i.e., diving) harvest methods. Dive harvest is the majority harvest activity. Market size clams are harvested individually by hand with a low- pressure water pump. Once harvested, a new crop is planted and the aforementioned process is repeated. Farming activities typically occur during low tide conditions(minus tides below MLLW). These occur during daylight hours April-September and during the night from October-March. In addition, dive planting or harvest could occur during high tides. The MLLW elevation (near the top edge of the farm) is underwater 90% of the time throughout the year. Depending on seed availability, the farm may be planted on a rotational basis. The completed farm will cover 4.6 acres. All access is via boat; no upland access. 6f. What are the anticipated start and end dates for project construction?

Describe how the project is designed to avoid and minimize adverse impacts to the aquatic environment. hel ❑ Not applicable The project will take place within Case Inlet of Puget Sound. The following conservation measures will apply to the proposed project, which are consistent with the NWP 48 conditions that are applicable to geoduck clam operations (Corps 2015, NMFS 2016, USFWS 2016). Note that conditions associated with eelgrass habitat, kelp habitat, salt marsh habitat, or shellfish aquaculture operations that are not associated with geoduck aquaculture were removed from the conditions below. These conditions are not relevant for the Stretch Island Geoduck Farm because these habitats are not present or the activities are not associated with the proposed action. In addition, no land vehicles will be used in the project area. Finally, predator exclusion nets will be used, and conditions associated with predator exclusion nets are not included below. 1. Unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car bodies, asphalt, tires) shall not be discharged or used as fill (e.g., used to secure nets, create nurseries, etc.). 2. For`new' activities only, activities shall not occur above the tidal elevation of+7 feet (MLLW) if the area is listed as documented surf smelt(Hypomesus pretiosus) spawning habitat by WDFW. See Attachment B for a map of surf smelt spawning habitat. 3. For`new' activities only, activities shall not occur above the tidal elevation of+5 feet (MLLW) if the area is documented as Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes hexapterus) spawning habitat by the WDFW. See Attachment B for a map of Pacific sand lance spawning habitat. 4. If removing equipment or material (i.e., culture tubes), or conducting harvest activities, within a documented or potential spawning area for Pacific herring (Clupea pallasi) outside the approved work window (see Seattle District Corps website), the work area shall be surveyed for the presence of herring spawn prior to the activity occurring. Vegetation, substrate, and materials (nets, tubes, etc.) shall be inspected. If herring spawn is present, these activities are prohibited in the areas where spawning has occurred until such time as the eggs have hatched and herring spawn is no longer present. A record shall be maintained of spawn surveys including the date and time of surveys; the area, materials, and equipment surveyed; results of the survey, etc. The Corps and the Services shall be notified if spawn is detected during a survey. The record of spawn surveys shall be made available upon request to the Corps and the Services. 5. All shellfish gear (e.g., marker stakes, rebar, and culture tubes) that is not immediately needed or is not firmly secured to the substrate will be moved to a storage area landward of MHHW prior to the next high tide. 6. All pump intakes (e.g., for washing down gear) that use seawater shall be screened in accordance with NMFS and WDFW criteria. Note: This does not apply to work boat motor intakes Qet pumps) or through-hull intakes. 7.

Any leaks detected shall be repaired in the vehicle staging area before the vehicle resumes operation and the leak and repair documented in a record that is available for review on request by the Corps and Services. 9. The direct or indirect contact of toxic compounds including creosote, wood preservatives, paint, etc. within the marine environment shall be prevented. [This does not apply to boats] 10. All culture tubes shall be clearly, indelibly, and permanently marked to identify the permittee name and contact information (e.g., telephone number, email address, mailing address). 11. All equipment and gear(e.g., culture tubes) shall be tightly secured into the sediment to prevent them from breaking free. 12. All foam material (whether used for floatation of for any other purpose) must be encapsulated within a shell that prevents breakup or loss of foam material into the water and is not readily subject to damage by ultraviolet radiation or abrasion. 13. Tires shall not be used as part of above and below structures or where tires could potentially come in contact with the water(e.g., floatation, fenders, hinges). 14. At least once every three months, beaches in the project vicinity will be patrolled by crews who will retrieve debris that escapes from the project area. Within the project vicinity, locations will be identified where debris tends to accumulate due to wave, current, or wind action, and after weather events these locations shall be patrolled by crews who will remove and dispose of shellfish related debris appropriately. A record shall be maintained with the following information and the record will be made available upon request to the Corps, NMFS, and USFWS: date of patrol, location of areas patrolled, description of the type and amount of retrieved debris, other pertinent information. 15. When performing other activities on-site, the grower shall routinely inspect for and document any fish or wildlife found entangled in nets or other shellfish equipment. In the event that fish, bird, or mammal is found entangled, the grower shall: (1) provide immediate notice (within 24 hours) to WDFW(all species), Services (ESA listed species) or Marine Mammal Stranding Network (marine mammals), (2) attempt to release the individual(s) without harm, and (3) provide a written and photographic record of the event, including dates, species identification, number of individuals, and final disposition, to the Corps and Services. Contact the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Law Enforcement Office at (425) 883- 8122 with any questions about the preservation of specimens. 16.

Will your project impact a waterbody or the area around a waterbody? [help] ❑ Yes ® No 8c. Have you prepared a mitigation plan to compensate for the project's adverse impacts to non-wetland waterbodies? hf elpl • If Yes,submit the plan with the DARPA package and answer 8d. • If No,or Not applicable,explain below why a mitigation plan should not be required. ❑ Yes ❑ No ❑x Not applicable The only potential impact to a waterbody is the effect from short-term increases in turbidity associated with a geoduck harvest event. Based on data collected by Ecology, the point of compliance for geoduck harvest activities was identified as a distance of 150 ft down-current from the harvest location that represents a temporary turbidity mixing area (e.g., Ecology 2012). This point of compliance represents sediment transported beyond the farm footprint that could potentially be biologically or physically significant). Overall, effects from suspended sediments are considered insignificant and habitat may potentially be improved in local areas if shellfish improve water quality conditions.

Name each species listed under the federal Endangered Species Act that occurs in the vicinity of the project area or might be affected by the proposed work. hf elpl Bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) Yelloweye rockfish (Sebastes ruberrimus) Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Marbled murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) Steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) Southern resident killer whale (Orcinus orca) Bocaccio rockfish (Sebastes paucispinis) 9m. Name each species or habitat on the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's Priority Habitats and Species List that might be affected by the proposed work. het According to the Priority Habitats and Species (PHS) website (WDFW 2017a), there were documented surf smelt identified in 1993 and 1994. The proposed project will avoid surf smelt spawning areas because culture is proposed only as high as +1 ft MLLW and surf smelt typically spawn at a +7 ft MLLW elevation. According to the Conservation Measures developed during NWP 48 consultation (Section 8a), avoidance of the +7 ft MLLW elevation during operations is a suitable conservation measure for surf smelt. In terms of other forage fish species, the closest Pacific herring spawning and pre-spawning holding areas is located 10.5 miles and 9.5 miles to the south (the Squaxin Pass stock), respectively (WDFW 2017b). If Pacific herring spawn in the proposed project area, the location of spawn deposition will be avoided until the eggs have hatched and herring spawn is no longer present (Section 8a). Finally, there is wild geoduck identified near the Stretch Island Geoduck Farm (WDFW 2017a). According to surveys by DNR with the Squaxin Island Tribe, the wild population on the site is so low that a harvest agreement will not be pursued under Section 6.3 (Larson, pers. comm., 2017).
