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-PROPOSAL Wording The proposal is to enhance fish habitat by removing a portion of a levee and installing six engineered log jams in the lower Dosewallips river.

Title: F-REVIEW OF PROPOSAL Wording RCW 77.55.290 (4) states that local government may not require permits or charge a fee for Fish Habitat Enhancement projects. This serves as Jefferson County's comments on the proposal and also provides a means for Jefferson County to track the proposed activity. Jefferson County has determined that Fish Habitat and Enhancement projects that conform to the provisions of the act are consistent with the Jefferson County Comprehensive Plan, Unified Development Code (UDC), and all other applicable ordinances and regulations. The State Legislature has determined that Fish Habitat and Enhancement projects that conform to the provisions of the act have been determined to be consistent with local shoreline master programs. The proposal has been submitted as a Fish Habitat and Enhancement project. If the WA State Department of Fish and Wildlife determines that the proposal does not qualify as a streamline Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) by meeting the criteria of a Fish Habitat and Enhancement project (RCW 77.55.290), then a standard HPA will be required and permits may be required by Jefferson County. 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. Provided that the proposal qualifies as Fish Habitat Enhancement project, this proposal is categorically exempt from review under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) pursuant to RCW 77.55.290 that states that Fish Habitat Enhancement projects are not subject to the requirements of RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). If the proposal does not qualify as a Fish Habitat Enhancement project, the proposal may be subject to SEPA. The site plan and JARPA as submitted (SDP06-00023) on June 26, 2006 has been reviewed by Jefferson County Department of Community Development. Any modifications, changes, and/or additions to the approved site plan and JARPA dated June 30, 2006 shall be resubmitted for review by Jefferson County Department of Community Development.
