Case Conditions
Below is a list of conditions for this permit case. Conditions typically record requirements that the applicant must meet to be in compliance with the permit.
Title: SOLID WASTE
Wording Permit approval is based on ALL waste being disposed of at an appropriate permitted facility

Title: TREATED WOOD
Wording The applicant proposes to remove a structure(s) that may contain treated wood. Please refer to Ecology's publication "Focus on Treated Wood Exclusion", available at http://www.ecy.wa.gov/pubs/0304038.pdf for suggested best management practices and disposal requirements for treated wood. For additional information or clarification, please contact Dee Williams with Ecology's Hazardous Waste and Toxics Reduction program, at (360)407-6348.

Title: RECYCLE
Wording Property owners, developers, and contractors are encouraged to recycle all possible leftover construction, demolition, and land clearing (CDL) materials and reduce waste generated. Recycling construction debris is often less expensive than landfill disposal. Please call Ecology's 1-900-RECYCLE hotline for facilities in the area that will accept your CDL materials for reuse or recycling.

Title: DISPOSAL
Wording 3. Remove and properly dispose of any treated timbers at a permitted facility. If contamination is currently known or observed during construction, sampling of the potentially contaminated media must be conducted. If contamination of the soil is readily visible, or is revealed by sampling, Ecology must be notified. Contact the environmental report tracking system coordinator at the Southwest Regional Office at (360) 407-6300. For assistance and information about subsequent cleanup and to identify the type of testing that will be required, contact Chuck Cline (360) 407-6267.

Title: Streamside Setback
Wording The identified Fish and Wildlife Habitat Area (Type 3 and Type 5 Streams), shall maintain a vegetative buffer setback of 100-feet and 50-feet respectively. The setback shall be measured horizontally from the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM).

Title: Identify Streamside Buffer
Wording A permanent physical separation along the boundary of the buffer area shall be installed and permanently maintained. Such separation can include installing logs, trees, a hedgerow, or any other prominent physical marking approved by the UDC Administrator.

Title: Mark Stream During Construction
Wording Buffer perimeters shall be marked with temporary signs at an interval of one per parcel or every one hundred (100) feet, whichever is less. Signs shall be in place prior to and during demolition activities. The signs shall contain the following statement: "Buffer - Do Not Remove or Alter Existing Vegetation."

Title: Seawater Intrusion Areas
Wording To help prevent seawater from intruding landward into underground aquifers, all new development activity on Marrowstone Island, Indian Island and within 1/4 mile of any marine shoreline shall be required to infiltrate all stormwater runoff onsite.

Title: BMPs
Wording The project shall adhere to the Best Management Practices (BMPs) to control stormwater, erosion and sediment during construction. BMPs shall address permanent measures to stabilize soil exposed during construction, and in the design and operation of stormwater and drainage control systems.

Title: C-Small Stormwater
Wording The project shall comply with Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SWPP) Elements #1 through #12 of the Department of Ecology's Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington to control stormwater, erosion and sediment during construction. BMPs shall address permanent measures to stabilize soil exposed during construction, and in the design and operation of stormwater and drainage control systems.

Title: Hydraulic Code/HPA Check
Wording Prior to commencing development activity, proponent is responsible for informing the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) in order for WDFW to determine whether this action is subject to the Washington State Hydraulic Code (Chapter 220-10 WAC). Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) is required for all hydraulic projects, which are defined as construction or performance of other work that will use, divert, obstruct, or change the natural flow or bed of any of the salt or fresh waters of the state.

Title: Army Corps Check
Wording Prior to commencing development activity, the proponent is responsible for informing the US Army Corps of Engineers (COE) in order for COE to determine whether a Department of the Army permit or review is required. Generally, review is required for construction and dredging in or around navigable waters of the US and for work or fill in hydrologically connected wetlands. Contact the US Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District Regulatory Branch, PO Box 3755, Seattle WA 98124, (206) 764-3495, for more information.


Case Findings
Below is a list of findings for this permit case. Findings typically record facts that the staff are using as the basis of their permit processing decisions.
Title: F-SIPZ
Wording The proposal does not include groundwater withdrawl. If potable water is required in the future the applicant shall meet all of the Aquifer Recharge and SIPZ conditions.

Title: F-NO SHORELINE EXEMPTION
Wording The project is located in an area with a "suburban" shoreline designation. Since the project is for the complete removal of two structures it does not meet the definition of development under the Shoreline Master Program (Chapter 18.25 JCC). No shoreline permit or shoreline permit exemption is required.

Title: F-Confirmed ESAs
Wording The application was reviewed by the Jefferson County Department of Community Development staff on (date) for the potential presence of Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESAs) under the provisions of the Unified Development Code (UDC). After an initial Geographic Information Systems mapping review and an investigative site inspection, the following ESAs were confirmed to be present on the subject property: Suburban Shoreline Designation, Stable Shoreline Slope Stability, Type 3 stream, Type 5 Stream, Habitat for Trumpeter Swans, Water Fowl Concentrations and Shorebirds, wetlands mapped along the shoreline, Seismic Hazard Area, Frequently Flooded Area, High Risk and Coastal Seawater Intrusion Protection Zone (SIPZ).

Title: F-Geohazard Area
Wording Geologically Hazardous Areas in Jefferson County are characterized by slope, soil type, geologic material, and groundwater that may combine to create problems with slope stability, erosion, and water quality during and after construction or during natural events such as earthquakes or severe rainstorms.

Title: F-Streams
Wording A Type 3 and Type 5 Streams (Fish and Wildlife Habitat Area) have been identified on the subject property. The streams will require a setback of 100-feet and 50-feet respectively. The setback shall be measured horizontally from the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). Fish and Wildlife Habitat Areas shall also have Buffers and Building Setbacks established.

Title: F-Buffers
Wording Stream buffers are areas that shall be maintained in their natural condition, however, minor pruning or alteration of vegetation may be permitted as long as the function and character of the buffer are not diminished.

Title: F-SIPZ
Wording Marine shorelines and islands are susceptible to a condition that is known as seawater intrusion. Seawater intrusion is a condition in which the saltwater/freshwater interface in an aquifer moves inland so that wells drilled on upland areas cannot obtain freshwater suitable for public consumption without significant additional treatment and cost. Maintaining a stable balance in the saltwater/freshwater interface is primarily a function of the rate of aquifer recharge (primarily through rainfall) and the rate of groundwater withdrawals (primarily through wells). The Washington Department of Ecology is the agency with statutory authority to regulate groundwater withdrawal for individual wells in Jefferson County. New development, redevelopment, and land use activities on islands and in close proximity to marine shorelines in particular should be developed in such a manner to maximize aquifer recharge and maintain the saltwater/freshwater balance to the maximum extent possible by infiltrating stormwater runoff so that it recharges the aquifer.

Title: F-Small Stormwater
Wording The proposal will not create impervious surface and minimal land disturbing activity is expected. JCC 18.30.060 and 18.30.070 require your proposal comply with Minimum Requirement #2 (Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention) of the Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington to control stormwater, erosion and sediment during construction. BMPs shall address permanent measures to stabilize soil exposed during construction, and in the design and operation of stormwater and drainage control systems.

Title: F-MDNS Issued
Wording Reviewed under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) by Jefferson County acting as lead agency. Mitigated Determination of Non-Significance (MDNS) issued on February 6, 2008.

Title: F-Site Plan Changes
Wording The site plan as submitted with the demolition permit application on December 6, 2008 has been reviewed for consistency under the UDC, and has been approved by Jefferson County Department of Community Development. Any modifications, changes, and/or additions to the stamped, approved site plan dated February 6, 2008 shall be resubmitted for review and approval by Jefferson County Department of Community Development.

Title: F-Approval for _____ Only
Wording This approval is for the demolition of two derelict buildings (sawmills) only. Any future permits on this site are subject to review for consistency with applicable codes and ordinances and does not preclude review and conditions which may be placed on future permits.

Title: ZONING
Wording The parcel has been designated as RR 1:5 under the Jefferson County Comprehensive Land Use Map effective August 28, 1998.
