DETERMINATION OF NONSIGNIFICANCE
(WAC 197-11-350)
SEP2001-00010
CONDITIONS OF THIS DETERMINATION
1) 1) Towers shall maintain a galvanized steel finish or, subject to any applicable standards of the FAA, be
painted a neutral color, so as to reduce visible obtrusiveness.
2) At a tower site, the design of the buildings and related structures shall, to the extent possible, use
materials, colors, textures, screening, and landscaping that will blend the tower facilities to the natural setting
and built environment.
3) Those sections of the proposed development that adjoin the existing commercial use parcel are subject to
buffer requirement "E" as described in the Mason County Development Regulations Ordinance. Those
sections adjoining undeveloped land are subject to buffer requirement "C" per the same ordinance.
4) Towers shall not be artificially lighted, unless required by the FAA or other applicable authority. If lighting
is required, the governing authority may review the available lighting alternatives and approve the design that
would cause the least disturbance to the surrounding views.
5) Towers shall be enclosed by security fencing not less than six feet in height and shall also be equipped
with an appropriate anti-climbing device.
6) All towers must meet or exceed current standards and regulations of FAA, the FCC, or any other agency of
the federal government with authority to regulate towers and antennas. If such standards or regulations
change, the owners of towers and antennas have six months to bring them into compliance unless a more
stringent compliance schedule is required by the federal agency.
7) The tower shall be setback a distance equal to the height of the tower from adjoining property lines, unless
an easement has been granted by the adjoining property owners. In this case, an easement will be necessary
from the parcel owners to the west.
8) All construction must meet or exceed all local codes and UBC requirements. Occupancy is limited to the
permitted and approved classification.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
Sprint PCS is a wireless telephone company operating throughout Washington. Sprint's
Personal Communication Service PCS i public
(PCS) s a pub utility licensed to operate in Washington b
S Y
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Sprint is currently designing its network in
the Mason County area to establish telephone service and provide wireless capacity to its
subscribers.
This proposal describes the scope of the proposed project by providing specific information
regarding the project location, zoning, specifications, and required services.
It is Sprint's desire to work with Mason County to ensure that our project is consistent with local
ordinances and zoning regulations while providing the PCS coverage that is critical for
emergency, business and personal use.
Project Goals
The goal of the Sprint PCS Hoodsport/Camp Hahobas (SE33XCO21-A) facility is to provide
PCS coverage for personal and emergency purposes in the immediate area of the project,
especially along the Hood Canal. Sprint intends to achieve these network goals consistent with
all policies and ordinances of Mason County.
Application Request Plan
The applicant is requesting the following:
• A SEPA DNS, an administrative approval tinder the Mason County Standards for
Telecommunications Antennas and Towers (Ordinance #5-98), and a building permit.
Sprint PCS is aware of the Determination of Invalidity/Moratoritcm on new commercial
developments within Mason County that began January 14, 1999. Sprint is submitting its
application to be processed after the moratorium on commercial developments in Mason
County lifts.

GENERAL PR
OJECT DESCRIPTION ,
Project Overview
The applicant proposes to construct a new one hundred and fifty foot (150') monopole on a
portion of the Boy Scouts Camp Hahobas property located at 1365 Hahobas Way NE Tahuya,
WA 98588 (Section 5, Township 22N, Range 3 W). The applicant, Sprint PCS, proposes to lease
approximately 1,250 square feet on the property. The lease area will be developed with a diesel
generator, as well as equipment cabinets, which house radio equipment and batteries. In
addition, the applicant proposes to mount three (3) arrays of four (4) antennas at the top of the
proposed pole.
Sprint PCS has secured a lease with the owners that will allow for construction and maintenance
of these facilities, necessary utility connections, and provisions for access to the site.
Facility Specifications
• Facility Maintenance - The facility is generally serviced once a month by one to two
employees to the site for an average four(4) hour maintenance check. This check is typically
for preventative maintenance purposes. In the event of a problem, a crew is dispatched to the
site immediately.
• Generator/Fuel Tank—A diesel generator will be placed on a separate concrete pad, southeast
of the monopole. The generator will be providing emergency back-up power in the event of
power outages and/or emergencies.
• Landscaping/Screening g— A landscaping plan has not been proposed. The immediate area
around the lease area has been cleared of vegetation. The parcel is covered by vegetation.
• Radio Equipment Cabinets — Four (4) BTS radio cabinets are proposed for this project. Each
cabinet contains radio equipment and batteries and measures approximately five feet (5') tall.
The cabinets will be mounted on a concrete slab within the lease area. Additional power
cabinets are proposed as shown on sheet A-2 of the plans.
• Tower/Antennas - A one hundred and fifty foot (150') monopole will be constructed at this
site to support three (3) arrays of four (4) antennas for a total of twelve (12) antennas. Each
antenna is roughly six feet (6') long and six to eight inches (6" - 8") wide. Please see the plan
elevations for further information.

GENERAL SITE ANALYSIS
Zoning General Plan Designation
The site is currently zoned Rural by Mason County. Sprint PCS's proposed site is considered a
"specific permitted use" according to Section 4.b.1 of the Mason County Standards for
Telecommunications Antennas and Towers (Ordinance # 5-98):
Locating a tower or antenna, including the placement of additional buildings or
other supporting equipment used in connection with said tower or antenna, in
the Rural Area...provided however, that such tower shall be set back a distance
equal to the height o the tower from an adjoining property line...Also provided q o tded
g f f l g P P tY .P
that the tower or antenna is no higher than...150 feet for three users. Also
provided that the Department of Community Development may waive this height
limit by up to 10%for the placement of whip antennas where there is little visual
impact.
Sprint PCS's proposed site does meet the setback requirements and height restrictions. (Please
see site plan drawings for further information.)
Existing Use
The subject area is vacant, and covered with trees and brush.
Access/Circulation
The site will be accessed by the existing access road. See Sheet LS-1 for additional information.
There are no traffic impacts associated with these types of facilities as they are unmanned and
require infrequent maintenance.
Grading and Site Disturbance
There will be minimal grading for scarification and recompaction of the proposed lease area. It
is expected to be less than ten cubic yards (10y). Any excess fill will be dispersed on site.
FCC/FAA
No special lighting will be required by the FCC/FAA, and none is proposed by Sprint PCS.
Sprint PCS's site will conform to all FAA/FCC regulations, and because the Maximum ERP is
less than two thousand (2,000) watts and/or the height of the facility is greater than ten meters
(10m), an environmental evaluation of radio frequency emissions is exempted per CFR Title 47
Part 24, Subpart E.
Environmental Issues
Sprint PCS's proposed monopole will be painted dark green to blend into the surrounding
vegetation. This facility is designed to accommodate three (3) carriers. Through the use of this
tower, it will preclude the need of additional structures by future carriers desiring to develop
other structures adjacent to this site.
