STAGING, JOB SITE ACCESS AND EQUIPMENT
6. No equipment may operate on the beach landward of 0-feet MLLW for the protection of surf smelt.
7. Check equipment daily for leaks and complete any required repairs before using the equipment in or near the water.
8. Lubricants composed of biodegradable base oils such as vegetable oils, synthetic esters, and polyalkylene glycols
are recommended for use in equipment operated in or near water.
9. Operate vessels with minimal propulsion power and in adequate water depth to prevent impacts from grounding and
propeller wash to seagrass, kelp, and forage fish spawning beds.
10. Do not deploy anchors or spuds in seagrass or kelp.
11. Maintain anchor cable tension, set and retrieve anchors vertically, and prevent mooring cables from dragging to
avoid impacts to seagrass and kelp.
CONSTRUCTION-RELATED SEDIMENT, EROSION AND POLLUTION CONTAINMENT
12. Prevent contaminants from the project, such as petroleum products, hydraulic fluid, fresh concrete, sediments,
sediment-laden water, chemicals, or any other toxic or harmful materials, from entering or leaching into waters of the
state.
13. Use tarps or other methods to prevent treated wood, sawdust, trimmings, drill shavings and other debris from
contacting the bed or waters of the state.
CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS
14. Do not use wood treated with oil-type preservative (creosote, pentachlorophenol) in any hydraulic project. Wood
treated with waterborne preservative chemicals (ACZA, ACQ) may be used if the Western Wood Preservers Institute
has approved the waterborne chemical for use in the aquatic environment. The manufacturer must follow the Western
Wood Preservers Institute guidelines and the best management practices to minimize the preservative migrating from
treated wood into aquatic environments. To minimize leaching, wood treated with a preservative by someone other
than a manufacturer must follow the field treating guidelines. These guidelines and best management practices are
available at www.wwpinstitute.org.
FLOAT
15. The float must not exceed 20 feet in length and 8 feet in width.
16. The structure must include functional grating. The grating material's open area must be at least sixty percent. The
float must have at least fifty percent of the entire deck surface covered in functional grating. Orient grating so the
lengthwise opening maximizes the amount of light penetration. Any objects that are not part of the structure on, above,
or below the grating should not block light penetration. Flotation must be located under the solid decked area only.
17. Fully enclose and contain flotation for the structure in a shell (tub) or 20 - 25 mm polyethylene or polyurethane
wrap. The shell or wrap must prevent breakup or loss of the flotation material into the water. The shell or wrap must not
be readily subject to damage by ultraviolet radiation and abrasion.
18. Do not construct skirting, including batter fencing, around float.
19. Use of treated wood for decking is not authorized, but may be used for structural elements. Treated wood subject to
abrasion by vessels, floats, or other objects must incorporate approved design features such as rub strips to minimize
abrasion of the wood.
20. Anchor lines must not rest on the substrate at any time. Per the approved plans this will be accomplished using
midline floats.
21. Per the approved plans the two anchors must be embedded helical style anchors.

All Hydraulic Project Approvals issued under RCW 77.55.021 are subject to additional restrictions, conditions, or
revocation if the Department of Fish and Wildlife determines that changed conditions require such action. The person(s)
to whom this Hydraulic Project Approval is issued has the right to appeal those decisions. Procedures for filing appeals
are listed below.
MINOR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS HPA: You may request approval of minor modifications to the required work timing
or to the plans and specifications approved in this HPA unless this is a General HPA. If this is a General HPA you must
use the Major Modification process described below. Any approved minor modification will require issuance of a letter
documenting the approval. A minor modification to the required work timing means any change to the work start or end
dates of the current work season to enable project or work phase completion. Minor modifications will be approved only
if spawning or incubating fish are not present within the vicinity of the project. You may request subsequent minor
modifications to the required work timing. A minor modification of the plans and specifications means any changes in the
materials, characteristics or construction of your project that does not alter the project's impact to fish life or habitat and
does not require a change in the provisions of the HPA to mitigate the impacts of the modification. If you originally
applied for your HPA through the online Aquatic Protection Permitting System (APPS), you may request a minor
modification through APPS. A link to APPS is at http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/hpa/. If you did not use APPS you must
submit a written request that clearly indicates you are seeking a minor modification to an existing HPA. Written requests
must include the name of the applicant, the name of the authorized agent if one is acting for the applicant, the APP ID
number of the HPA, the date issued, the permitting biologist, the requested changes to the HPA, the reason for the
requested change, the date of the request, and the requestor's signature. Send by mail to: Washington Department of
Fish and Wildlife, PO Box 43234, Olympia, Washington 98504-3234, or by email to HPAapplications@dfw.wa.gov. You
should allow up to 45 days for the department to process your request.
MAJOR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS HPA: You may request approval of major modifications to any aspect of your HPA.
Any approved change other than a minor modification to your HPA will require issuance of a new HPA. If you originally
applied for your HPA through the online Aquatic Protection Permitting System (APPS), you may request a major
modification through APPS. A link to APPS is at http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/hpa/. If you did not use APPS you must
submit a written request that clearly indicates you are requesting a major modification to an existing HPA. Written
requests must include the name of the applicant, the name of the authorized agent if one is acting for the applicant, the
APP ID number of the HPA, the date issued, the permitting biologist, the requested changes to the HPA, the reason for
the requested change, the date of the request, and the requestor's signature. Send your written request by mail to:
Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, PO Box 43234, Olympia, Washington 98504-3234. You may email your
request for a major modification to HPAapplications@dfw.wa.gov. You should allow up to 45 days for the department to
process your request.
APPEALS INFORMATION
If you wish to appeal the issuance, denial, conditioning, or modification of a Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA),
Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) recommends that you first contact the department employee who
issued or denied the HPA to discuss your concerns. Such a discussion may resolve your concerns without the need for
further appeal action. If you proceed with an appeal, you may request an informal or formal appeal. WDFW encourages
you to take advantage of the informal appeal process before initiating a formal appeal. The informal appeal process
includes a review by department management of the HPA or denial and often resolves issues faster and with less legal
complexity than the formal appeal process. If the informal appeal process does not resolve your concerns, you may
advance your appeal to the formal process. You may contact the HPA Appeals Coordinator at (360) 902-2534 for more
information.
