Dear Marissa Watson:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the determination of nonsignificance for the Tuke
Replacement Pier, Ramp, and Float Project(SEP2018-00085, SHX2018-00061, BLD2018-
00990)located at 55 Northeast Mountain Lake Drive in Belfair as proposed by Larry Tuke. The
Department of Ecology(Ecology)reviewed the environmental checklist and has the following
comment(s):
SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT: Derek Rockett(360) 407-6287
The applicant proposes to demolish an existing structure that may contain treated wood.
Please refer to Ecology's publication"Focus on Treated Wood Exclusion," available at:
hops://fortress.wa. og v/ecy/publications/publications/0304038.pdf, for suggested best
management practices and disposal requirements for treated wood.
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.
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.

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: Lh
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.
