Skokomish Indian Tribe Natural Resources Department (360) 877-5213 N. 541 Tribal Center Road Fax(360) 877-5148 Skokomish Nation,WA 98584 September 24'h, 2009 Enviromnental Review Application No.:SEP2009-00067 Project Name: Lilliwaup Falls Stream bank Protection/Restoration Project Description of Proposal: Emergency Bank Protection and Restoration Location: 501 Lilliwaup St Lilliwaup WA 98555 Proponent: Gary Reed Dear Kell, It has been determined that the above project has the potential to have negative environmental impacts to the Skokomish Tribe or their resources. However given that the work will be performed out of water they should be minimal. As summer chum are running right now the project start date should be pushed back to at least the middle of October,however,WDFW may have a more specific requirement per their HPA. Also when the LWD is going to be place a trained habitat/fish biologist needs to be on hand to instruct the work crew on where and how to place it(I can make myself available if WDFW is not). Given that these stipulations are followed the Skokomish tribe can agree with your determination of non-significance. However, the Skokomish Tribes Tribal Historic Preservation Officer will be providing comment as to the potential cultural impacts of this SEPA and you should not move forward with the above project until you receive those comments. Thank you for including the Skokomish Tribe in the planning process, if you have any questions about the comments provided herein please contact Randy N. Lumper(Environmental Planner) at 1-360-877-5213 ext#508 or email theirs to rlumper@skokomish.org. Sincerely, v Joseph Pavel Director Skokomish Natural Resources Department 1
