Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) FAMILIARIZATION: The permittee, project engineer, project supervisor, contractor, subcontractor, machinery operators, and all others working within, below, over or adjacent the ordinary high water line (OHWL) shall have read this HPA prior to project construction, and shall follow its provisions at all times. 2. Work below the ordinary high water line shall only occur between July 15, 2010 and September 30, 2010. 3. Work shall be accomplished per plans and specifications approved by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife entitled "Hamma Hamma River Estuary Restoration" and dated September 10, 2009, except as modified by this Hydraulic Project Approval. A copy of these plans shall be available on site during construction. 4. Changes to the project/plans shall occur only after review and approval by the Area Habitat Biologist listed below or his/her representative. 5. NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENT: The Area Habitat Biologist (AHB) listed below shall receive written notification (FAX or mail) from the person to whom this HPA is issued (permittee) or the agent/contractor no less than three working days prior to the start of construction activities. The notification shall include the permittee's name, project location, starting date for work, and the control number for this HPA. BYPASS 6. A temporary bypass to divert flow around the work area shall be in place prior to initiation of other work in the wetted perimeter.

The bypass shall be of sufficient size to pass all flows and debris for the duration of the project. 8. Prior to releasing the water flow to the project area, all bank protection or work shall be completed. 9. Upon completion of the project, all material used in the temporary bypass shall be removed from the site and the site returned to preproject or improved conditions. 10. The permittee shall capture and safely move food fish, game fish, and other fish life from the job site. The permittee shall have fish capture and transportation equipment ready and on the job site. Captured fish shall be immediately and safely transferred to free-flowing water downstream of the project site. The permittee may request the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife assist in capturing and safely moving fish life from the job site to free-flowing water, and assistance may be granted if personnel are available. 11. Any device used for diverting water from a fish-bearing stream shall be equipped with a fish guard to prevent passage of fish into the diversion device pursuant to RCW 77.57.010 and 77.57.070. The pump intake shall be screened with 1/8-inch mesh to prevent fish from entering the system. The screened intake shall consist of a facility with enough surface area to ensure that the velocity through the screen is less than 0.4 feet per second. Screen maintenance shall be adequate to prevent injury or entrapment to juvenile fish and the screen shall remain in place whenever water is withdrawn from the stream through the pump intake. EQUIPMENT 12. Equipment used for this project may operate below the ordinary high water line, provided the drive mechanisms (wheels, tracks, tires, etc.) shall not enter or operate below the ordinary high water line. 13. Equipment used for this project shall be free of external petroleum-based products while working around the stream. Accumulation of soils or debris shall be removed from the drive mechanisms (wheels, tires, tracks, etc.) and undercarriage of equipment prior to its working below the ordinary high water line. Equipment shall be checked daily for leaks and any necessary repairs shall be completed prior to commencing work activities along the stream. DIVERSION CHANNEL 14. During construction, the old channel shall be isolated from the flowing stream by plugs at the upstream and downstream ends of the channel. These plugs shall be substantial enough to prevent flood flows from entering the old channel during construction. 15. Spoils from the diversion channel shall be placed in an approved upland site. This material shall be used to fill the diversion channel once the diversion has been completed.

The angle of the structure used to divert the stream into the diversion channel shall allow a smooth transition of stream flow. 17. Stream diversion back to the original channel shall be conducted only after inspection and approval of the channel by the Area Habitat Biologist listed below or his/her representative. 18. Diversion of flow into the diversion channel and the original channel shall be accomplished by the following: 1. First remove the downstream plug. 2. Face the stream side of the plug with a sandbag revetment or similar approved mechanism. 3. Partially remove the upstream plug to allow 1/3 to 1/2 of the flow down the channel for at least overnight. The channel shall not be allowed to dewater. 4. Remove the rest of the upstream plug once the channel has flow throughout its entire length. 5. Close the upstream end of the channel. 19. Secure the entrance to the diversion channel to prevent re-entry of any flow. This HPA does not authorize the use of riprap at this location. 20. Filling of the old channel shall begin from the upstream closure and the fill material shall be compacted. Water discharging from the fill shall not adversely impact fish life. LOG JAMS and LOG STRUCTURES 21. Fish habitat components such as logs, stumps, and/or large boulders are required as part of the bank protection project to mitigate project impacts. These fish habitat components shall be installed to withstand 100-year peak flows. 22. The fish habitat log structures shall be of fir, cedar, or other approved coniferous species. 23. Large woody material shall be placed or anchored to provide stable, functional fish habitat. 24. Large woody material embedded in the bank or streambed shall be left undisturbed and intact. 25. Large woody material installation shall be accomplished in a manner which minimizes the release of bedload, logs, or debris downstream. DREDGING 26. Dredged streambed materials shall be disposed of at APPROVED upland site so it will not re- enter state waters. 27. Upon completion of the dredging, the streambed shall contain no pits, potholes, or large depressions to avoid stranding of fish.

Dredging shall be accomplished in the dry. Work shall be separated from the stream, if flowing, by use of a temporary bypass. 29. Depressions created in gravel bars shall be filled, smoothed over, and sloped upwards toward the bank on a minimum two percent gradient. WATER QUALITY 30. If at any time, as a result of project activities, fish are observed in distress, a fish kill occurs, or water quality problems develop (including equipment leaks or spills), immediately stop work except for efforts to control leaks or spills or prevent toxic substances from entering the water and notify the Washington Military Department's Emergency Management Division at 1-800-258-5990, and to the Area Habitat Biologist listed below. Work shall not restart on the project until approved by the Area Habitat Biologist. 31. Prior to starting work, temporary filter fabric, sediment curtains, or pea gravel-filled burlap bag check dam(s) shall be installed downstream. Accumulated sediments shall be removed during the project and prior to removing the check dam(s) after completion of work. 32. Erosion control methods shall be used to prevent silt-laden water from entering the stream. These may include, but are not limited to, filter fabric, temporary sediment ponds, check dams of pea gravel-filled burlap bags or other material, and/or immediate mulching of exposed areas. 33. Wastewater from project activities and water removed from within the work area shall be routed to an area landward of the ordinary high water line to allow removal of fine sediment and other contaminants prior to being discharged to the stream. 34. All waste material such as the old culvert, construction debris, silt, excess dirt or overburden resulting from this project shall be deposited above the limits of flood water in an approved upland disposal site. 35. If high flow conditions that may cause siltation are encountered during this project, work shall stop until the flow subsides. 36. Alteration or disturbance of the bank and bank vegetation shall be limited to that necessary to construct the project. Within seven calendar days of project completion, all disturbed areas shall be protected from erosion using vegetation or other means. Within one year of project completion, the banks shall be revegetated with native or other approved species. Vegetative cuttings shall be planted at a maximum interval of three feet (on center) and maintained as necessary for three years to ensure 80 percent survival.
