The field review was completed during two site visits, in March of 2009. The purpose of this wetland review was to determine if any wetlands are present on or near the project site which would be regulated by the Mason County Resource Ordinance, Chapter 17.01.070. This review was requested in conjunction with the development of a single family residence on the property. Mason County has determined that wetlands or streams may be present on or near the project site, and may encumber the site with wetlands or wetland buffer. Site analysis was conducted by Mason County beginning in 2002, and continuing through March of 2009. As part of that analysis, a letter dated March 4, 2009,prepared by Mr. Allan Borden, Planner for Mason County, outlines the outstanding items remaining to resolve wetland-related issues on the project. Wetland determinations were made using observable vegetation,hydrology, and soils in accordance with the Corps of Engineers 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual, and the 1997 Washington State Wetlands Delineation Manual. The project site is located in the northeast quarter of Section 29, Township 22 North, Range 1 West, W.M. The project area is made up of one tax parcel, Mason County parcel #122295002040. The project site is roughly a rectangular shaped area located approximately 1 mile south of the town of Allyn. 1414 MCCORkIE Rd SE • OIyMPiA, WAShiNGTON 98501 0 PRONE: (360) 352-1 526 • FAX: (360) 3 52-1 558 Mr.Bovey March 23,2009 Page 2 The project site is bounded by single family residential development on the north and south, and by Grapeview Loop Road on the west. Case Inlet is located to the east of the project site. General land use in the vicinity of the project site is single family residential development,recreational properties, and properties managed for timber production. Access to the site is from Grapeview Loop Road. Existing development on the project site consists of an existing well located in the southwestern portion of the site. The western half of the property has been filled. Topography of the site is generally sloping downward from west to east, although much of the site is relatively flat. There is a very slight downward slope to the east, extending offsite to Case Inlet. Soils on the project site are mapped in the Natural Resource Conservation Service (MRCS) Soil Survey of Mason County Area, Washington as Sinclair shotty loam, 5-15 percent slopes. The Sinclair series is described as moderately well drained. This series is not classified as a hydric soil by the NRCS. Soils across the project site appear to be inconsistent with the NRCS description. While the western half of the site is fill material, soils in the eastern portion are indicative of seasonal saturation. Within these areas, soils are generally IOYR 2/2 or IOYR 3/1 muck or silt loam to at least 16 inches in depth. Redoximorphic features including common distinct 7.5YR 4/6 mottles, as well as oxidized rhizospheres were observed within 12 inches of the soil surface in mineral soils evaluated in this portion of the site. Vegetation in the western half of the site consists of grasses and forbs that have become established on the fill material. Species observed in the eastern portion of the site are indicative of seasonal saturation. Species observed in this area include: red alder, cattail, common horsetail, soft rush,Nootka rose, subarctic ladyfern,and Himalayan blackberry. The area is essentially dominated by forbs and scattered shrubs,with the only trees on the parcel being a cluster of red alder in the southeastern portion of the site. Hydrology or indicators of hydrology within 12 inches of the soil surface was observed across the eastern portion of the site. Indicators of hydrology which were observed included: water stained leaves, and oxidized root zones and iron soft masses in the upper portion of the soil profile. In addition, saturation within 4-6 inches of the soil surface was observed across the eastern half of the site. Hydrology on the site appears to be the result of seepage, sheet flow, and groundwater from offsite to the west. Drainage from this area extends offsite to the east, draining across the tidelands into Case Inlet. As a result of site evaluation,a single wetland area was observed onsite which would be regulated by Mason County. The wetland dominates the eastern half of the site, but does not extend offsite to the north or south, likely due to past filling activities associated with existing residential development on adjacent properties. The wetland is a palustrine emergent persistent seasonally saturated slope system,that would best be rated as a Category III wetland by Mason County. Although it is adjacent to the shoreline of Case . 1 Mr.Bovey March 23,2009 Page 3 Inlet, it is not an estuarine wetland,and the water source is freshwater supplied by groundwater seepage from the sloping areas west of the site. Category III wetlands require an 80 foot buffer from the delineated edge of the wetland, under Mason County Resource Ordinance, Chapter 17.01.070D (based on the proposed high intensity land use). As shown on the attached site plan, the required 80 foot wetland buffer would encumber nearly the entire site with wetland or wetland buffer. To allow reasonable use of the site (development of a single family residence), Mason County will allow reduction of the wetland buffer to facilitate the development of a single family residence on the site. As part of the buffer reduction,the applicant will complete enhancement of the wetland and reduced buffer through vegetation plantings and invasive species removal. Some Himalayan blackberry is present within the wetland area to be enhanced. Individual blackberry plants should be completely grubbed out by hand and removed to prevent spreading or resprouting of blackberry. Soils within the disturbed area are mainly muck or silt loam which will prevent loss of revegetation from drought during the summer dry season. Soils should be well suited to the revegetation work, and do not need to be amended prior to planting. Although the area will naturally revegetate over time, some revegetation of the area is proposed. This will help to accelerate the revegetation of the area, and enhance wetland and shoreline functions. Typical buffer functions include: water quality functions, screening of the shoreline from adjacent land uses, and providing wildlife habitat and connectivity for a variety of species. The proposed buffer restoration plan for this project is to establish additional native shrubs within the onsite wetland area,and establish a narrow buffer on the existing fill material. Water quality functions will be maintained through the establishment of native woody vegetation within the wetland area. This will increase root structure within the wetland,providing for increased infiltration, sediment trapping, and soil formation. Wildlife habitat within the wetland will be enhanced by the establishment of tree and shrub vegetation. Himalayan blackberry within the planting area is also of concern for the establishment of low growing species. The best long term solution to suppress blackberry is through the establishment of a shade canopy. Deciduous species have been selected, and will provide the initial framework for coniferous species to ultimately become established. Plantings proposed are native species, and have been selected based on site conditions(soils,moisture levels,and light), and will provide an initial framework where other native species can become established within wetland area. Mr.Bovey March 23,2009 Page 4 Very few native trees and shrubs are currently present in the planting area, and will be left undisturbed. Plantings will be randomly spread throughout the disturbed area to replicate natural conditions,as shown on the site plan. The proposed area to be planted, as well as the species to be utilized, are shown on the attached planting plan. Proposed species to be used include: red alder,Nootka rose,hard hack, and Sitka willow. These species are all present in the vicinity of the planting area, and are well suited to the site. Plantings will be container plants, and will be obtained from a local source in Western Washington. Planting will be completed during the wetter, colder months (November through March)to assure maximum survival and viability. Due to the relative simplicity of this project,planting and maintenance work can be completed by the property owner of their designee. Existing blackberry,which is present in the proposed revegetation area,will be removed by pulling prior to planting. Invasive species will be controlled by pulling or cutting,using hand tools (machetes, shovels)or hand held power tools (weed wackers). The focus of the maintenance will be to assure maximum survival of plantings. Plantings should become established, and will ultimately suppress invasive species. The main species of concern on this site is Himalayan blackberry. Planted species will be monitored for at least one year following planting. Survival at the end of the first growing season should meet or exceed 80 percent. Volunteer native, woody species which become established within the buffer can be included in this total. If this success standard is not met,measures will be taken to meet this goal (additional plantings,maintenance, and monitoring). Contingency actions that may be necessary should be apparent by the end of the first growing season following planting. Monitoring will be completed by the property or their representative. Monitoring will consist of at least two visits the first year to evaluate the site for plant survival, vigor, and assure that invasive species are being controlled. Vandalism or other damage should also be addressed. Any deficiencies should be noted and reported to Thurston County following the first growing season.

For example,the wetland has been identified in the Shoreline Master Program,the Critical Areas Ordinance, or in a local management plan as ` having special significance. To complete the next part of the data sheet you will need to determine the Hvdrogeomorphic Class of the wetland beingrated ated. The hydrogeomorphic classification groups wetlands into those that function in similar ways. This simplifies the questions needed to answer how well the wetland functions. The Hydrogeomorphic Class of a wetland can be determined using the key below. See p.24 for more detailed instructions on classifying wetlands.
