The 40-acre parcel is zoned RR-10 and is bisected by E Homestead Drive.The adjacent 5- acre parcel is in the Allyn UGA, zoned R-1.Two mapped landslide hazard areas are on this site. All American Geotechnical has prepared geotechnical reports for the logging, and the report has been determined to be complete.The 40-acre parcel is concurrently being reviewed for a SEPA exempt 4- lot large lot subdivision.Staff found a seasonal non-fish stream near the southeast corner of the project. For the purposes of this review the stream is assumed to feed North Bay and be jurisdictional. This Ns stream requires a 75' no-cut buffer. Stormwater and erosion control needs to be addressed by a Min Requirements 1-5 narrative. Proponent: NW Green Construction Location of Proposal: Section 17,Township 22N, Range 1 West. Parcel Number: 12217-24-00010 & 12217-42-00010 Legal Description: NE %&SE 1/4, Sec 17,Twp 22N., Rng 1W., W.M. Directions to Site: SR 3 to E Homestead Drive, access on both sides of road. (no address),Allyn, WA The Lead Agency for this proposal has determined that it does not have a probably significant adverse impact on the environment. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c).This decision was made after review of a completed Environmental Checklist and other information on file with the Lead Agency. This information is available to the public upon request. Please contact Michael MacSems at ext. 571, or mms@co.mason.wa.us with any questions. This DNS is issued under WAC 197-11-340(2).The Lead Agency will not act on this proposal for 14 days from the date shown below, when the determination is final. Comments must be submitted to Dept. of Community Development, 615 W Alder St, Shelton WA 98584 by 12/29/2021.Appeal of this determination must be filed within a 14-day period following this final determination date,per Mason County Code Chapter 15.11 Appeals. Date: 12/15/2021 vzj:�K VVA-111� Kell Rowen,Mason County Planning Administrator,Dept of Community Services Draft CONDITIONS For FPA 2021-00014 1. ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES Archaeological or historical resources, such as ruins, sites, buildings, artifacts,fossils, or other objects of antiquity that may have significance from an historical or scientific standpoint, which may be encountered by the developer/contractor, shall not be further disturbed. If the developer/contractor encounters any such artifacts, he/she shall immediately stop work and notify Mason County and the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation. Failure to do so may result in civil penalties. 2. STORM WATER & EROSION CONTROL Escape of silty water or mud from this property shall be considered a violation of County and State storm water management regulations and could subject the applicant(s) to civil fines or penalties. All American Geotechnical has prescribed stormwater control and erosion abetment measures, which shall be adhered to by the applicant. No more than 32,670 sq. ft of contiguous ground disturbance for development purposes, and no more than 5,000 sq. ft. of contiguous new impervious surfaces (not including roofs) is allowed without an engineered stormwater and erosion control plan. The applicant shall provide a Minimum Requirements 1-5 narrative prior to permit issuance. The erosion and stormwater facilities shown on this plan (if any) are the minimum requirements for anticipated site conditions. These facilities shall be upgraded as needed for unexpected storm events and to ensure that sediment and sediment-laden water do not leave the site. 3. FLAGGING All harvest unit boundaries to be flagged at visible intervals. 4. STREAM SETBACK The do-not disturb buffer for the Np stream is 75 . 5. STEEP SLOPES This site contains steep slopes. Geotechnical reports have been prepared by All American Geotechnical. No logging shall occur in the landslide hazard areas mapped in the reports. 6. HOURS OF OPERATION Noise associated with this application shall not exceed what is allowed under Mason County Code 9.36. Harvest operations shall start no earlier than 7:00 AM and shall end before 8:00 PM on a daily basis. 7. SLASH ABATEMENT This Forest Practice Application indicates that forest debris resulting from the proposed logging operation may create an extreme fire hazard under RCW 76.04.600 and WAC 332-24-650. An extreme fire hazard could be created if one or more of the conditions found in WAC 332-24-650 is located within 100 feet of the running surface of a public road; or is within 500 of an existing structure and/or designated public use area, which is not owned by the owner of the fire hazard area. The land owner is fully liable in the event of fire, if he or she fails to appropriately abate the hazard. Extreme fire hazards shall be abated by removing the forest debris, or by other means approved by the Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR). —RIVEM9 al 61MI.S.-I i • 11 r '{� .v - =- s � •+y'yk"a h ire.: �, w" • � _ ..ap+.

Alder Street Purpose of checklist: Governmental agencies use this checklist to help determine whether the environmental impacts of your proposal are significant. This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for applicants: h( elpl This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable" or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision- making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies: Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. A. BACKGROUND hel 1.

The Department of Ecology(Ecology)reviewed the environmental checklist and has the following comment(s): SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: Derek Rockett(360) 407-6287 All grading and filling of land must utilize only clean fill. All other materials may be considered solid waste and permit approval may be required from the local jurisdictional health department prior to filling. All removed debris resulting from this project must be disposed of at an approved site. Contact the local jurisdictional health department for proper management of these materials. WATER QUALITY/WATERSHED RESOURCES UNIT: Evan Wood(360)407-7320 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. Any discharge of sediment-laden runoff or other pollutants to waters of the state is in violation of Chapter 90.48 RCW,Water Pollution Control, and WAC 173-201A,Water Quality Standards for Surface Waters of the State of Washington, and is subject to enforcement action. Michael MacSems December 29,2021 Page 2 Construction Stormwater General Permit: 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: 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. For additional information on contaminated construction sites,please contact Carol Serdar at Carol.Serdar(gecy.wa.gov, or by phone at (360) 742-9751. Additionally, sites that discharge to segments of waterbodies listed as impaired by the State of Washington under Section 303(d)of the Clean Water Act for turbidity, fine sediment,high pH, or phosphorous, or to waterbodies covered by a TMDL may need to meet additional sampling and record keeping requirements. See condition S8 of the Construction Stormwater General Permit for a description of these requirements. To see if your site discharges to a TMDL or 303(d)-listed waterbody,use Ecology's Water Quality Atlas at: hgps://fortress.wa. og v/ecy/watMualityatlas/StartPage_aspx. The applicant may apply online or obtain an application from Ecology's website at: htW://www.ecy.wa.goy/programs/wq/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.
