The request is approved with conditions. 10 TESTIMONY Il 12 Kell McAboy—Mason County Staff 13 Ms. McAboy summarized the staff report. Ms. McAboy stated the proposal was for a joint pier, ramp and float. The Shoreline Substantial Development Permit is required 14 because the proposal exceeds the development cost threshold for exemption. The proposal meets code. It will service two existing lots owned by the Hunter family. 15 There will be deed restrictions on the use of the pier, ramp and floats. Ms. McAboy 16 noted that while a neighbor requested the site plan, the County did not receive any public comment. The Department of Ecology did request conditions of approval, 17 which are reflected in the staff report. The owners' property is upland and across SR 106. The pier, ramp and floats will be accessed by walking. No addition impervious 18 surface is proposed. 19 Amy Leitman—Applicants' Agent from Marine Surveys and Assessments 20 Ms. Leitman stated her company had performed the Biological Evaluation Report 21 (Ex. 4). She stated the land was a strip of grass and gravel with existing cement groins. These groins were part of an old boat ramp. These will be removed as a 22 mitigation measure to ameliorate near shore environmental impacts. There is one small patch of eelgrass. The design was moved to the west to avoid the eelgrass. The 2' pier, ramp and float will be located 25 feet away from the eelgrass. No other 24 environmental impacts are anticipated. 25 Ms. Leitman noted the proposal took a long time to process because they were unable to obtain early concurrence from the Skokomish Tribe. The tribe required the Hunters SSDP P. 1 Findings, Conclusions and Decision to exchange 30 acres of wetlands to mitigate for impacts to the tribes fishing rights. 1 The wetlands exchange is not part of the present proposal. 2 EXHIBITS 3 Exhibits 1-12 identified on the Case Index of the revised June 10, 2016 Staff Report 4 were admitted at the hearing. During the hearing, an Addendum to Hunter Family Farm and James and Joan Hunter Joint-use Pier, Ramp and Float prepared by Marine Surveys and Assessments was entered into the record as Ex. 13. 6 FINDINGS OF FACT 7 Procedural: 8 1. Applicant. The applicant is the Hunter Family Farm Limited Partnership 9 (James and Joan Hunter). 10 2. Hearing. The Hearing Examiner conducted a hearing on the subject application on June 22, 2106 at 1:00 p.m. in the Mason County Commissioners 1 1 Meeting Room. 12 Substantive: 1' 3. Project/Site Description. The property is two adjacent lots in common 14 ownership located on the south side of Hood Canal at 9894 E. SR 106 in Union, WA. The combined parcels have approximately 300 feet of armored waterfront. The 15 parcels are approximately 30 feet deep between SR 106 and the Ordinary High Water Mark(OHWM).There is an existing bulkhead located on the eastern parcel. The pier, 16 ramp, float (PRF) will be located on the eastern parcel. Landward of the bulkhead to the edge of the road pavement is a flat grassy area with a fence separating it from the 1 road.The residences are located landward of the state route to the south. 18 The proposal is to construct a 6' x 50' fully grated fixed pier, a 4' x 53' fully grated 19 aluminum ramp leading to an 8' x 30' main float with 58% functional grating and an 8' x 14' finger float with 54% functional grating. The total length of the structure 20 from the OHWM is 115 feet (Ex. 4). The cost of the proposed project will exceed 21 $6,416. 22 The public interest suffers no detrimental effect. The PRF will not affect public uses during low tides in any manner. High tide laps against the base of the armored 23 coastline. The PRF will not affect the public use of kayaks and other small boats during high tides in any manner. No public access or use will be affected by the 24 project. Adjacent properties consist of privately owned single-family residential lots 25 of similar size to the applicant's property. Other nearby lots have previously developed access to the water via many nearby PRF. The Applicant has worked with Mason County and a wildlife biologist to plan the smallest PRF structure possible to minimize impact the shoreline environment. The location selected will not affect the SSDP p.2 Findings, Conclusions and Decision views of neighboring properties from the upland or the shoreline. No view of public I or private property owners will be affected by this project. 2 4. Characteristics of the Area. The general area is characterized by single- 3 family development along the shores of Hood Canal. There is a waterfront residence immediately west of the project site. There are existing PRF adjacent to the subject 4 property immediately to the east and west. Within a one-mile stretch (1/2 mile east and west of the subject property),there are approximately 22 PRF. 5 6 5. Adverse Impacts of Proposed Use. A Determination of Non-significance was issued on May 12, 2016 by Mason County under WAC 197-11-340. No 7 comments were received. No impacts to views, public access, water quality or shoreline habitat are anticipated. The Applicant submitted a Biological Evaluation 8 prepared by Marine Surveys and Assessments (Ex. 4 and 13). The Biological Evaluation addresses best management practices and provides enhancement 9 recommendations. The design also meets the Washington State Department of Fish 10 and Wildlife Construction requirements. As proposed with the recommendations for planting and enhancement in the Amended Biological Evaluation(Ex. 13),the project 11 is consistent with the Mason County Shoreline Master Program.4 12 CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 13 Procedural: 14 1. Authority of Hearing Examiner. MCC 15.03.050(10) authorizes the 15 Examiner to review and issue a final decision regarding shoreline substantial development permit requests. 16 Substantive: 17 18 2. A Shoreline Substantial Development Permit is required for this project because it exceeds $5,000 in value as outlined in MCC 15.09.055(a)(1). Under MCC 19 15.09.055(f)(2)(c), the Examiner must base a decision on a shoreline substantial development permit application upon the policies and procedures of the Mason 20 County Shoreline Master Program ("SMP") as well as Chapter 90.58 RCW. The 21 generic review criteria for all Mason County permits reviewed by the Hearing Examiner, MCC 15.09.055(c) also apply. All applicable policies and regulations are 22 quoted below and applied with corresponding conclusions of law. 23 Shoreline Management Program Pier and Dock Use Regulations (MCC 24 17.50.060) 25 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 1: The location and design of docks and piers, as well as the subsequent use, shall minimize adverse effects on fish, shellfish, wildlife and water quality. SSDP p. 3 Findings,Conclusions and Decision 3. As noted in the Staff Report, this is a joint use application that minimizes 1 impacts by constructing one overwater structure rather than the two permitted if each 2 lot constructed its own PRE The PRF will be extended by 15 additional feet to minimize the damage to the substrate by preventing the floats from grounding out 3 during low tides. The number of pilings will be minimized through the use of steel pilings. Toxins will also be minimized through the use of steel rather than treated 4 wood. The pier, ramp and floats will each have grating to minimize shading. As 5 proposed,the impacts to fish, shellfish and wildlife are minimized. 6 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 2: Docks and piers shall be located, designed and operated to not significantly impact or unnecessarily interfere 7 with the rights of adjacent property owners, or adjacent water uses. Structures shall be located a minimum of five feet from side property lines. Community use or joint 8 use facilities may be located on the property line. 9 4. As noted in Finding of Fact No. 3, the PRF will be located on one of two 10 adjacent properties in common ownership. The PRF will be located more than 125 feet from adjacent PRF in either direction. There will be no impact to the rights of 11 adjacent property owners or water uses. The PRF will be located on one lot with deed restrictions allowing joint use. The PRF will be located in excess of five feet from the 12 property line. 13 MMC 17.50.060 Piers&Docks Regulation No. 3:No pier, dock or f oat or similar 14 device shall have a residential structure constructed upon it. 15 5. No residential structure is proposed. 16 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 7: Maximum overall length of a 17 recreational pier or dock facility including float shall be only so long as to obtain a depth of three feet of water as measured at mean lower low water on salt water or a 18 depth of five feet as measured from ordinary low water on lakes. The length of any pier or dock facility shall not exceed the lesser of fif een percent of the fetch or one 19 hundred feet from OHWM on salt water and fifty feet on fresh water shorelines. Joint or community use facilities may be an additional fifteen feet in length, and shall not 20 exceed a depth of minus five feet. When sufficient depth to serve a vessel is not found 21 at these lengths, a recreational float, with one boat slip, may be located at a depth sufficient to serve the vessel, but not exceeding minus eight feet as measured from 22 mean lower low water, on marine shores, and ordinary low water on lake shores. 23 6. As noted in Finding of Fact No. 3, the total length will be 115 from 24 OHWM. The depth will be approximately-2 feet(Ex.4).This criterion is met. 5 MMC 17.50.060 Piers&Docks Regulation No. 8: Only one dock is allowed per lot. 7. This proposal is for a joint-use pier which will result in only one PRF for two lots. SSDP p.4 Findings,Conclusions and Decision I MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 9: The width of recreational piers 2 and docks shall not exceed eight feet. 3 8. The float will be eight feet wide. The pier and ramp will be six feet and four feet,respectively.This criterion is met. 4 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 10:At the end of a dock or pier, a 5 float may be attached. These floats may either be parallel to the dock or pier, or form 6 a "T"or "L". In tidal water, the float shall not exceed four hundred gross square feet without a boat slip (seven hundred square feet for two joint use owners), or six 7 hundred gross square feet with a boat slip (one thousand square feet for two joint use owners). In fresh water, the float area shall not exceed two hundred fifty square feet 8 without a boat slip (four hundred square feet for two joint use owners), or four hundred square feet with a boat slip (seven hundred square feet for two joint use 9 owners). 10 9. The float surface is less than 400sf. It forms an "L"at the end of the ramp. 11 This criterion is met. 12 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 13: Recreational piers shall be no higher than eleven feet above mean higher high water. Piers and docks shall have at 1' least an eight foot span between pilings. 14 10. The height of the pier is approximately 10 feet above the mean high water 15 mark. Piling spans are at least 20 feet(Ex.4). This criterion is met. 16 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 14: The surface of floating 17 structures shall be a minimum of eight inches above the surface of the water. 18 11. As proposed, the intermittent supports are greater than eight inches above the surface of the water.This criterion is met. 19 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 15: All floating structures shall 20 include intermittent supports to keep structures off the tidelands at low tide. 21 12. As proposed and conditioned. 22 MMC 17.50.060 Piers & Docks Regulation No. 16: All facilities shall be 23 constructed and maintained in a safe and sound condition. Abandoned or unsafe docks and piers shall be removed or repaired promptly by the owner. Where any such 24 structure constitutes a hazard to the public, the county may,following notice to the 25 owner, abate the structure if the owner fails to do so within a reasonable time, and may impose a lien on the related shoreline property in an amount equal to the cost of the abatement. SSDP p. 5 Findings,Conclusions and Decision 13. A condition of approval will require the PRF to be maintained in a safe and sound condition. As noted in Finding of Fact No. 5, the design meets the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife Construction requirements. 3 Shoreline Management Program Piers and Docks Policies 4 Policy 1: Piers and docks should be designed and located to minimize obstruction of 5 views and conflicts with recreational boaters and fishermen. 6 14. The proposed PRF will be located at least 125 feet from neighboring PRF. No waterfront views will be obstructed or impacted. The location and design will not 7 conflict with residential boaters and fishermen.This criterion is satisfied. 8 Policy 2: Cooperative uses of piers and docks are favored, especially in tidal waters. 9 15. The proposed PRF is a joint use facility, which will be shared by two lots 10 in common ownership. As conditioned, the proposal will require a deed restriction prohibiting additional construction of overwater structures. 11 Policy 3: The type, design and location of docks and piers should be compatible with 12 the shoreline area where they are located. Consideration should be given to shoreline 13 characteristics, tidal action, aesthetics, adjacent land and water uses. 14 16. As noted in Conclusion of Law No. 10 and 11, the floats will have stops that prevent them from grounding out during low tide and disturbing the substrate. 15 The PRF will have grating to minimize shading. The use is compatible with others in the vicinity. As noted in Finding of Fact No. 4, there are approximately 22 PRF 16 within a mile of the subject. 17 Policy 5:Mooring buoys and floats are preferred over piers and docks. 18 17. The proposal is for a PRF in addition to a mooring buoy. The Hunter's 19 existing float will be removed as mitigation. Though this criterion is not met, it is mitigated and all other policies and use regulations are satisfied. 20 21 Miscellaneous Review Criteria 22 MCC 15.09.055(C): Required Review: The Hearing Examiner shall review proposed development according to the following criteria: 23 1. The development does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and meets 24 the requirements and intent of the Mason County Code, especially Title 6, 8, and 16. 25 2. Development does not impact the public health, safety and welfare and is in the public interest. SSDP p. 6 Findings,Conclusions and Decision 3. Development does not lower the level of service of transportation and/or 1 neighborhood park facilities below the minimum standards established within the 2 Comprehensive Plan. 3 18. As noted in the Staff Report and the above analysis, the project does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. Title 16 does not apply to the project. SEPA 4 review has already been completed for the project, and a determination of non- significance has been issued. The conditions of approval adequately mitigate against 5 any adverse impacts to public health safety and welfare by requiring by imposing 6 several measures to ensure that the construction of the PRF does not adversely affect water quality. Since the PRF enhances access to the water without minimal adverse 7 impacts, they are in the public interest. The addition of PRF will have no impacts on level of service standards. These criteria are satisfied. 8 DECISION 9 10 The Shoreline Substantial Development Permit is approved, subject to the following conditions: 11 1. Deed Restriction: Prior to issuance of an approved building permit for the 12 proposed joint-use PRF, applicants must agree to build no additional overwater structures on parcel number 32236-50-00007.

The two Hunter parcels are adjacent properties located on S.R. 106 along the south shore of Hood Canal. Combined,the parcels have approximately 300' of waterfront and are approximately 30' deep between S.R. 106 and the Ordinary High Water Mark(OHWM). There is an existing bulkhead located on the eastern parcel where the proposed PRF will be located. Landward of the bulkhead to the edge of the road pavement is a flat grassy area separated by a fence. The associated residential structures are located landward/south of SR 106. C. Comprehensive Plan Designation. The Mason County Comprehensive Plan designation for the site is Rural. D. Shoreline Master Program Designation. The Shoreline Master Program environmental designation for the site is Urban. E. Zoning. The parcel is zoned Rural Residential 5 (RR-5). VII. SEPA Compliance and other public notice requirements. The proposal was reviewed under SEPA, SEP2015-00027. A DNS was issued on 05/12/2016 (Exhibit 6).A Notice of Shoreline Management Permit for a Substantial Development Permit, SHR2015-00003 (Exhibit 2)was issued and posted on 05/12/2016(Exhibit 5). VIII. Other Permits. The proposal requires a Mason Environmental Permit (MEP2015-00010),Mason County Building Permit, Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) from Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife(WDFW), Washington Department of Ecology Water Quality Protection Concurrence, and US Army Corps of Engineers(USACOE)RGP 6 approval. IX. Analysis. The proposal is for a PRF within the shoreline of Hood Canal. Shoreline Environmental Designation is Urban. Hood Canal is a Shoreline of Statewide Significance. Per the Mason County Development Code 15.09.055 A. 1.,this proposal requires a Shoreline Substantial Development Permit(SDP)due to the cost exceeding$6,416.This SDP proposal is reviewed under the Mason County Comprehensive Plan, Chapter IX. Shoreline Management Program, including Shorelines of Statewide Significance and the Mason County Code, Shoreline Master Program (SMP)Chapter 17.50.060 Piers and Docks. Applicable Piers and Docks Policies: 1. Piers and docks should be designed and located to minimize obstruction of views and conflicts with recreational boaters and fishermen. The proposed PRF will be located 200 feet from the neighboring PRF to the west and 127 feet from the neighboring PRF to the east. There are no waterfront residential structures that will have an impacted view. This SHR2015-00003 -3- location and design should not conflict with recreational boaters and fisherman. 2. Cooperative uses of piers and docks are favored, especially in tidal waters. The proposal is for a cooperative joint-use PRE Adverse impacts associated with proliferation of overwater structures are reduced in this proposal by 50%compared to single-use proposals. 3. The type,design and location of docks and piers should be compatible with the shoreline characteristics,tidal actions, aesthetics,adjacent land and water uses. The floats will have stops that will prevent the floats from grounding out and disturbing the beach. The PRF will each have grating to minimize shading of the aquatic environment. The adjacent neighbors to the east and west each have an existing PRE 5. Mooring buoys and floats are preferred over piers and docks. The proposal is for a PRF in addition to a mooring buoy. Hunter's existing float will be removed as mitigation. 7. Boat houses and covered moorages shall be discouraged. None proposed. Applicable Pier and Dock Use Regulations are: 1. The location and design of docks and piers, as well as the subsequent use shall minimize adverse effects on fish, shellfish,wildlife and water quality. This joint-use application minimizes impacts by limiting the proliferation of overwater structures. The additional 15'in length permitted per Use Regulation No. 7 allows the float to ground out less of the time during low tides, therefore reducing impacts to the substrate. The use of steel pilings will minimize impacts further by reducing the overall number of pilings as well as the elimination of chemicals used to treat alternative wood piling(see condition # 7 and Exhibit#11). As detailed in the Biological Evaluation, the shoreline environmental impacts of this individual structure are otherwise represented as minimal. 2. Docks and piers shall be located,designed and operated to not significantly impact or unnecessarily interfere with the rights of adjacent property owners, or adjacent water uses. Structures shall be located a minimum of five feet from side property lines. The proposed PRF will be located on one of two parcels owned by the Hunter's between two neighboring PRFs. The design does not appear to conflict with the use of the neighboring PRFs to the east and west. The PRF will be located greater than 5 feet from the property line. SHR2015-00003 -4- 4. No pier, dock,or float or similar device shall have a residential structure constructed upon it. None proposed. 7. Maximum overall length of a recreational pier or dock facility including float shall be only so long as to obtain a depth of three feet of water as measured at mean lower low water on salt water. The length of any pier or dock shall not exceed the lesser of 15%of the fetch or 100 feet from Ordinary High Water Mark(OHWM) on salt water.Joint or community use facilities may be an additional 15 feet in length, and shall not exceed a depth of minus five(-5) feet. When sufficient depth to serve a vessel is not found at these lengths, a recreational float,with one boat slip,may be located at a depth sufficient to serve the vessel,but not exceeding minus eight(-8) feet as measured from mean lower low water,on marine shores. The PRF is proposed at the maximum length of 115'from the OHWM, at which point the depth is approximately—2'according to the site plan on page 15 of the BE. 8. Only one dock is allowed per lot. One shared PRF is proposed for two lots. 9. The width of recreational piers and docks shall not exceed eight feet. The proposed width of the fixed pier is 6 feet, ramp is 4 feet and the float 8 feet. 10. At the end of a dock or pier,a float may be attached. These floats may either be parallel to the dock or pier, or form a"T"or"L". In tidal water,the float shall not exceed 400 gross square feet without a boat slip or 600 gross square feet with a boat slip. The float surface area is less than 400 square feet and forms an "L"at the end of the ramp. 13.Recreational piers shall be no higher than 11 feet above mean higher high water. Piers and docks shall have at least an eight-foot span between pilings. Per the drawings in the Biological Evaluation, the height of the proposed pier is approximately 10'above mean higher high water. Piling span varies and is at least 20'. 14. The surface of floating structures shall be a minimum of eight inches above the surface of the water. As configured, intermittent supports are greater than eight inches. 15.All floating structures shall include intermittent supports to keep structures off the tidelands at low tide. Included in proposal. See conditions of approval. SHR2015-00003 -5- 16.All facilities shall be constructed and maintained in a safe and sound condition. Abandoned or unsafe docks and piers shall be removed or repaired promptly by the owner. Where any such structure constitutes a hazard to the public,the County may, following notice to the owner,abate the structure if the owner fails to do so within a reasonable time,and may impose a lien on the related shoreline property in an amount equal to the cost of the abatement. See conditions of approval. Mason County Comprehensive Plan,Chapter IX,Shoreline Management Program. Shorelines of Statewide Significance. The Shorelines Management Act of 1971 has designated the following shoreline areas of Mason County as shorelines of statewide significance: 1 Hood Canal 2 Lake Cushman 3 Skokomish River The Act further states, concerning shorelines of statewide significance: "The Legislature declares that the interest of all of the people shall be paramount in the management of shorelines of statewide significance."The department, in adopting guidelines for shorelines of statewide significance, shall give preference to uses in the following order of preference which: 1 Recognize and protect the statewide interest over local interest; 2 Preserve the natural character of the shoreline; 3 Result in long term over short-term benefit; 4 Protect the resources and ecology of the shoreline; 5 Increase public access to publicly owned areas of the shoreline; 6 Increase recreational opportunities for the public in the shoreline; 7 Provide for any other element as defined in RCW 90.58.100 deemed appropriate or necessary. Although PRFs are not prohibited, they do not receive preference as a use. A Comprehensive Plan Review Type III review for permit applications require that the Hearing Examiner evaluate the proposal for consistency with the County's Development Code, adopted plans and regulations. The Hearing Examiner shall review the proposal according to the following criteria: 1) The development does not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the requirements and intent of the Mason County Code. The development does not conflict with the intent of the Comprehensive Plan and meets all the requirements of the Mason County Code as conditioned. 2) The development does not impact the public health, safety and welfare and is in the public interest. The development proposal will not impact SHR2015-00003 -6- the public health, safety or welfare as conditioned and it is in the public interest to permit development that meets the intent of the Comprehensive Plan and conforms to applicable development regulations. The development does not lower the level of service of transportation and/or neighborhood park facilities below the minimum standards established within the Comprehensive Plan. The development proposal will not lower the LOSfor transportation. The LOSfor park/recreational facilities is marginally enhanced by reducing the applicant's need to use the public boat lunch. X. Conclusions.As a shoreline of statewide significance,the County must consider the interest of all the people,regardless of whether comments are received. Given the growing concern over poor water quality and subsequent poor habitat in Hood Canal, especially the lower Hood Canal, each PRF project has the potential to increasingly negatively impact the overall water quality. The joint-use application in this case minimizes these impacts by reducing proliferation of overwater structures by 50%compared to single-use applications and reducing amount of time the float is grounded at low tides(utilizing 15' greater length per Use Regulation# 7). There are two existing PRFs adjacent to and east and west of the proposed project site. The project is otherwise consistent with the Mason County Comprehensive Plan Chapter IX. Shoreline Management Program Policies, and Mason County Code, 17.50.060 Shoreline Master Program Piers and Docks use regulations. Staff recommends approving this project as proposed with conditions. If the Hearing Examiner approves this permit, staff recommends the following conditions: 1. Deed Restriction: Prior to issuance of an approved building permit for the proposed joint-use PRF, applicants must agree to build no additional overwater structures on parcel number 32236-50-00007. This agreement must be recorded with the County's Auditor's office and a copy supplied to the planning department. 2.

Essential Fish Habitat Assessment A.Background The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act(MSA),as amended by the Sustainable Fisheries Act of 1996(Public Law 104-267),requires Federal agencies to consult with NMFS on activities that may adversely affect designated Essential Fish Habitat(EFH)for the relevant species.According to the MSA,EFH means"those waters and substrate necessary to fish for spawning,breeding,feeding,or growth to maturity."For the Pacific West Coast,the Pacific Fisheries Management Council(Council)has designated EFH for federally managed groundfish(PFMC 1998a),coastal pelagic(PFMC 1998b)and Pacific salmon fisheries(PFMC 1999). Species of fish in the three groups present in the Puget Sound at various times in their life-history phases are seen in the table at the end of the Assessment. The purpose of the EFH Assessment is to determine the effects of the proposed project on the EFH for the relevant species and to recommend conservation measures to avoid,minimize of otherwise offset adverse effects on EFH. B.Identification of EFH The designated EFH for groundfish and coastal pelagic species encompasses all waters from the mean high water line,and upriver extent of saltwater intrusion in river mouths,along the coasts of Washington,Oregon and California,seaward to the boundary of the U.S.exclusive economic zone(370.4 km)(PFMC 1998a, 1998b).The designated EFH in estuarine and marine areas for salmon species extends from the nearshore and tidal submerged environments within state territorial water out to the full extent of the exclusive economic zone(370.4 km) offshore of Washington,Oregon and California north of Point Conception to the Canadian border(PFMC, 1999). C.Proposed Action To construct a joint-use pier,ramp and float on Hood Canal. D.Effects of the Proposed Action The project may have temporary adverse effects on EFH designated for groundfish,coastal pelagic fish and Pacific salmon(chinook,coho and Puget Sound pink salmon)due to noise and turbidity impacts from pile driving. E.EFH Conservation Measures A work window will be implemented to minimize any possible adverse effects to EFH. In addition,grating will be installed to minimize shading impacts. F. Conclusion The project may have temporary adverse effects on EFH for groundfish,coastal pelagics and Pacific salmon,but will not adversely affect EFH for groundfish,coastal pelagic fish and Pacific salmon(chinook,coho and Puget Sound pink salmon)in the long term.

Assessment of Impacts to Critical Habitat for Puget Sound Chinook and Hood Canal Summer-run Chum Project description: Construct a joint-use pier,ramp and float on Hood Canal Applicant: Hunter Family Farm LTD Partnership and James&Joan Hunter. COE reference:NWS-2015-239 NMFS reference: unknown at this time The primary constituent elements determined essential to the conservation of salmon and steelhead are: (1)Freshwater spawning sites with water quantity and quality conditions and substrate supporting spawning,incubation,and larval development. Existing Conditions:Does not apply-the project is in the marine environment Effects to PCE:None (2)Freshwater rearing sites with water quantity and floodplain connectivity to form and maintain physical habitat conditions and support juvenile growth and mobility;water quality and forage supporting juvenile development;and natural cover such as shade,submerged and overhanging large wood,logjams and beaver dams,aquatic vegetation,large rocks and boulders,side channels,and undercut banks. Existing Conditions: Does not apply-the project is in the marine environment Effects to PCE:None (3)Freshwater migration corridors free of obstruction with water quantity and quality conditions and natural cover such as submerged and overhanging large wood,aquatic vegetation,large rocks and boulders, side channels,and undercut banks supporting juvenile and adult mobility and survival. Existing Conditions: Does not apply-the project is in the marine environment Effects to PCE: None (4)Estuarine areas free of obstruction with water quality,water quantity and salinity conditions supporting juvenile and adult physiological transitions between fresh-and saltwater;natural cover such as submerged and overhanging large wood, aquatic vegetation,large rocks and boulders,and side channels,and juvenile and adult forage,including aquatic invertebrates and fishes,supporting growth and maturation. Existing Conditions: There is documented surf smelt spawning at the site.There is no submerged large wood at the site.There is no woody debris on the beach.There are no side channels at the site.There is some large riparian vegetation along to the shoreline. Effects to PCE: Pile driving will produce brief and localized increased turbidity within 25'of each piling. The project will have no impacts on water quantity,salinity conditions or water temperature. Shading impacts on the benthic environment will be minimized by installed grating in the structure. Grounding impacts will be prevented by float stops and stud piles. (5)Nearshore marine areas free of obstruction with water quality and quantity conditions and forage, including aquatic invertebrates and fishes,supporting growth and maturation;and natural cover such as submerged and overhanging large wood,aquatic vegetation,large rocks and boulder and side channels.

Assessment of Impacts to Critical Habitat for Coastal - Puget Sound Bull Trout COE reference: N WS-2015-239 Applicant:Hunter Family Farm LTD.Partnership and James&Joan Hunter. The primary constituent elements determined essential to the conservation of bull trout(Salvelinus confluentus) are: (1)Water temperatures that support bull trout use.Bull trout have been documented in streams with temperatures from 32 to 72 OF(0 to 22°C)but are found more frequently in temperatures ranging from 36 to 59 OF(2 to 15°C). These temperature ranges may vary depending on bull trout life history stage and form,geography,elevation, diurnal and seasonal variation,shade,such as that provided by riparian habitat,and local groundwater influence. Stream reaches that preclude bull trout use are specifically excluded from designation. Existing Conditions: The project is in a marine environment-Hood Canal. Effects to PCE:Not applicable (2)Complex stream channels with features such as woody debris,side channels,pools,and undercut banks to provide a variety of depths,velocities,and in-stream structures. Existing Conditions: See 1 above Effects to PCE: See 1 above (3)Substrates of sufficient amount,size and composition to ensure success of egg and embryo overwinter survival, fry emergence,and young-of-the year and juvenile survival.This should include a minimal amount of fine substrate less than 0.25 in(0.63 cm)in diameter. Existing Conditions: See 1 above Effects to PCE: See 1 above (4)A natural hydrograph,including peak,high,low,and base flows within historic ranges or,if regulated, currently operate under a biological opinion that addresses bull trout,or a hydrograph that demonstrates the ability to support bull trout populations by minimizing daily and day-to-day fluctuations and minimizing departures from the natural cycle of flow levels corresponding with seasonal variation:This rule finds that reservoirs currently operating under a biological opinion that addresses bull trout provides management for PCEs as currently operated. Existing Conditions: See 1 above Effects to PCE: See 1 above. (5)Springs, seeps,groundwater sources,and subsurface water to contribute to water quality and quantity as a Cold- water source. Existing Conditions: See 1 above Effects to PCE: The project will have no impacts on springs,seeps,groundwater sources or subsurface water at the site. (6)Migratory corridors with minimal physical,biological,or water quality impediments between spawning, rearing,overwintering,and foraging habitats,including intermittent or seasonal barriers induced by high water temperatures or low flows. Existing Conditions: There is documented surf smelt spawning at the site.There is no submerged large wood at the site.There is no woody debris on the beach.There are no side channels at the site.There is some large riparian vegetation along to the shoreline. Effects to PCE:The project has been designed to minimize impacts on foraging and migratory habitat.Grating will decrease the shading impacts on the benthic environment.Work windows will minimize impacts migrating bull trout. MS&A Hunter Family Farm and James Et Joan Hunter Joint-Use Pier Ramp and Float Project- 43 (7)An abundant food base including terrestrial organisms of riparian origin,aquatic macro invertebrates,and forage fish. Existing Conditions: See 6 above. Effects to PCE: See 6 above. (8)Permanent water of sufficient quantity and quality such that normal reproduction,growth and survival are not inhibited. Existing Conditions: See 1 above Effects to PCE: See 1 above Conservation Measures: See"E.Conservation Measures"in the BE. Determination of Effect: no destruction or adverse modification MS&A Hunter Family Farm and James 8 Joan Hunter Joint-Use Pier Ramp and Float Project- 44 Attachment 8. Bocaccio, Canary and Yelloweye Rockfish The project is located in Hood Canal which contains proposed nearshore critical habitat for juvenile canary and bocaccio rock fish.The proposed pier,ramp and float will be located in water that is less than 30 meters deep. Therefore,yellowfish proposed critical habitat will not be affected by this project. The Primary Constituent Elements(PCEs)are as follows: 1.Quantity,quality and availability species to support growth,survival,reproduction,and feeding opportunities. Existing Conditions:The predominate substrate is peagravel.Cobble and barnacles for the first 150' from the bulkhead,with peagravel,sand and cobble being the main substrate out to 170'.In the area where the structure will be located,there is no kelp.There is some S.latissima at densities of 10%beginning approximately 45' seaward of the float. Sand is suitable forage habitat for juvenile canary and bocaccio rockfish,but the kelp at the site is located seaward of the float location. Effects to PCE: The presence of the structure will not affect the small percentage of S.latissima present in deeper water. 2.Water quality,quantity and sufficient levels of dissolved oxygen to support growth,survival,reproduction and feeding opportunities. Existing Conditions: Low oxygen(Category 5)was reported in the area where the project is located in the DOE Marine Water Quality Assessment 303(d)listing for 2012. Effects to PCE: Pile driving could cause brief turbidity within 25' of each piling resulting in a temporary decrease in water quality. Determination of Effect: "May affect,not likely to adversely affect"critical habitat for juvenile canary and bocaccio rockfish.

The Department of Ecology(Ecology)reviewed the environmental checklist and has the following comment(s): WATER QUALITY: Chris Montague-Breakwell(360)407-6364 Erosion control measures must be in place prior to any clearing, grading, or construction. These control measures must be effective to prevent stormwater runoff from carrying soil and other pollutants into surface water or stormdrains that lead to waters of the state. Sand, silt, clay particles,and soil will damage aquatic habitat and are considered to be pollutants. The following construction activities require coverage under the Construction Stormwater General Permit: 1. Clearing, grading and/or excavation that results in the disturbance of one or more acres and discharges stormwater to surface waters of the State; and 2. Clearing, grading and/or excavation on sites smaller than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of development or sale, if the common plan of development or sale will ultimately disturb one acre or more and discharge stormwater to surface waters of the State. a) This includes forest practices(including, but not limited to,class IV conversions) that are part of a construction activity that will result in the disturbance of one or more acres, and discharge to surface waters of the State;and 3. Any size construction activity discharging stormwater to waters of the State that Ecology: Mr. Kell McAboy May 26, 2016 Page 2 a) Determines to be a significant contributor of pollutants to waters of the State of Washington. b) Reasonably expects to cause a violation of any water quality standard. If there are known soil/ground water contaminants present on-site,additional information (including,but not limited to:temporary erosion and sediment control plans; stormwater pollution prevention plan; list of known contaminants with concentrations and depths found; a site map depicting the sample location(s);and additional studies/reports regarding contaminant(s))will be required to be submitted. You may apply online or obtain an application from Ecology's website at: hU://www.ea.wa.gov/programs/wg/stormwater/construction/-Application. Construction site operators must apply for a permit at least 60 days prior to discharging stormwater from construction activities and must submit it on or before the date of the first public notice. Ecology's comments are based upon information provided by the lead agency. As such,they may not constitute an exhaustive list of the various authorizations that must be obtained or legal requirements that must be fulfilled in order to carry out the proposed action. I If you have any questions or would like to respond to these comments,please contact the appropriate reviewing staff listed above.

The planting plan area can be seen in Figure 1 (planting plan map)and in Figure 2 (photos). Plants will be installed in a 6 foot by 240 foot area just above the bulkhead. Nootka Roses will be installed at 4 foot centers for approximately 240 feet skipping the area in front of the proposed structure. Other species will be interspersed. The plants selected for this site are all native plants that can tolerate salt spray from the marine environment.They were selected to improve the overall value of the functions in this critical area buffer. Soil stability,nutrient input, and wildlife habitat were all important factors. Following is a table showing the plant species and numbers for the planting area. Plants will be selected from a regional native plant nursery. Plant List Quantity Botanical Name Common Name Size 36 Rosa Nutkana Nootka Rose 2 Gal 4 Holodiscus discolor Oceanspray 2 Gal 8 Ribes sanguineumRed-Flowering Currant 2 Gal 6 Yaccinium ovatum Evergreen Huckleberry 2 Gal 12 Leymus mollis Dunegrass 1 Gal 10 Gaultheria shallon Salal 1 Gal Plants should be installed in late fall or early spring following the construction work. During these times plant are semi-dormant and soils are easier to work.Plants will be laid out by hand generally following the spacing specified on the planting plan map(Figure 1). The plants will be installed by digging a one to two foot hole, loosening the soil,placing the plant in the ground after loosening soil around the root ball. The hole must be deep enough to ensure the roots are straight,but not so deep as to bury plants too far above the root collar. Once the plant is in place,the hole will be backfilled and tamped lightly.Mulch should be applied 3"deep around plants,being careful not to touch the stem of the plant.No extraordinary measures are proposed at this time to protect installed plants other than mulching,weeding and watering. Substitutions might be necessary for species or individuals that cannot be found at local nurseries.All plant substitutions will be approved by the project biologist prior to installation to ensure their suitability for the site. B. Performance Standards Performance standards are measurable criteria for determining if the goals and objectives of the mitigation project are being achieved. If the proposed benchmarks are not achieved by comparing the surveys to the mitigation goals,then contingency plans will need to be implemented. Performance Standard#1 (survival rate): Immediately after planting, all plants will be counted and documented.At the end of each growing season(late Aug-early Sept)plots will be visited and a count of surviving plants will be documented.The percent survival for the plots will be calculated by dividing the total number of plants after planting by the total number of surviving plants at the end of the season. Photo stations for the replanting site will be determined and a photograph of each transplant location will be taken on an annual basis. Individual plants that die must be replaced with native species I order to meet the survival performance standards. Performance Standard#2 (percent cover):The percent cover standard will be monitored by looking at each monitoring unit of the enhanced areas from above and estimating the area covered by the individual species. The percent cover within an area can be quantified as a total greater than 100%because plants (in tree,high/low shrub and herbaceous layers)overlap uncover. C. Monitoring Plan An as-built drawing and report will be submitted as documentation of the implementation of the approved planting plan within one month of installation. The plan will include vegetation description and photo documentation from established photo stations.A panoramic photo of the entire mitigation site will also be provided. Photos should be taken June—August, during the growing season.Monitoring will take place over a period of five years at the end of the growing season(late August or early September) of each monitoring year. The performance standards will be monitored by measuring plots in zones within the planting area that will be established and mapped after planting occurs, on the as-built plan. There will be photo points for each plot and they will be referenced on the as-built plan. Each year,the photo points established at each site will be used for comparison.Photos will be taken at all points for all years as visual documentation of the performance standard's progress, or lack thereof. In addition to photos at designated points,photo documentation must include a panoramic view of the entire planting area. Submitted photos must be formatted on standard 8 %Z"by I I"paper, dated with the date the photo was taken and clearly labeled with the direction from which the photo was taken. The photo location points must be identified on an appropriate drawing..Collected data and photos will be compiled into an annual Riparian Planting Report each year and submitted by November 30 of each monitoring year for five years.Each annual monitoring report shall include written and photographic documentation on plant mortality and replanting efforts and must document whether the performance standards are being met. Monitoring results will determine whether or not contingency measures will be needed. Performance Standards#1 &2 Year 1: Achieve 100%survival success of replanted natives into mitigation areas. Year 2: Achieve 100%survival success at end of second year into mitigation areas. Year 3:Achieve 80%survival success at end of third year into mitigation areas. Year 4: Achieve 80%survival success at end of fourth year into mitigation areas. Year 5: Achieve 80%survival success at end of into mitigation areas. D.Maintenance and Contingency Maintenance shall occur at least twice during the growing season to ensure the survival of all native species within the mitigation area, including volunteer natives. Watering by hand or sprinkler may be necessary during year number one until the plants are established.Water requirements will depend on the timing of planting with the seasons and weather conditions. Once plants are established, extra watering may not be necessary.Hand weeding will be necessary around all plants that are being monitored to ensure survival and coverage. If the required rate is not met by the end of any monitoring year,plants lost to mortality will be replaced to achieve the percentage cover called for in the performance standard described above. Prior to replacement, an appropriate assessment will be performed to determine if the ' survival was affected by species/site selection, animal damage,or some other factor. Subsequent contingency actions must be designed to respond directly to the stressor(s),which are increasing mortality of planted native species. If a particular species is shown not to endure site conditions then another,more appropriate species will be selected. If excessive damage is observed,protective measures will be introduced.Monitoring years may be added if significant replanting becomes necessary. Monitoring on an annual basis for five years will occur with photographs to determine the survival rate of the transplanted area. If 100%success is achieved during the first two years or 80%success rate during the last three years,monitoring will continue without extra replanting efforts. Within the five year time period,transplanting will occur on an annual basis to replace any plants that are lost until 80%success is achieved. 0' 25' 75 .0 Nootka Rose 10' 50' 100' Red Flowering Currant P115' from bulkhead/MHHW DuneOceanrassy L g Evergreen HuckleberryFr b Salal � PL S PROPOSED -�—JOINT U5E STRUCTURE eD MHHW = 11.8' (MLLW) IS 1' UP THE BULKHEAD BULKHEA 12' ROW 30' --- --- FOG LINE SR 106 CENTER LINE Figure 4.
