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-STREAMLINED PROCESS
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 Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife determines that the proposal does not qualify as a Streamlined 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.

Title: F-SEPA
Wording 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, which 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.

Title: F-Confirmed ESAs
Wording The application was reviewed by the Jefferson County Department of Community Development staff on April 22, 2009 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: Conservancy Shoreline Designation; Shoreline Stream Type; Salmon, Waterfowl, Harbor Seal habitat; Wetlands; Seismic Zone; Flood Zone; Susceptible Aquifer Recharge Area.

Title: F-Aquifer Recharge Area
Wording Aquifer Recharge Areas in Jefferson County are characterized by porous geological formations that allow percolation of the surface water into the soils and the underlying zone of saturation. Aquifers are geologic formations that contain sufficient saturated permeable material to yield significant quantities of water to wells and springs. Aquifers serve as the source of drinking water within most of the rural portions of Jefferson County.

Title: F-Susc. Aquifer Recharge Area
Wording Susceptible Aquifer Recharge Areas are those with geologic and hydrologic conditions that promote rapid infiltration of recharge waters to groundwater aquifers.

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 "S" Stream (Fish and Wildlife Habitat Conservation Area) has been identified on the subject property. The stream will require a buffer of 150-feet. The buffer shall be measured horizontally from the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM). Fish and Wildlife Habitat Areas shall also have Buffers and Building Setbacks established. If approved by State Agencies, the proposal will be exempt from the buffer requirements.

Title: F-Site Plan Changes
Wording The site plan as submitted with the Streamlined Fish Habitat Enhancement Project application on April 13, 2009 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 April 22, 2009 shall be resubmitted for review and approval by Jefferson County Department of Community Development.

Title: F-Approval for _____ Only
Wording This approval is for a Streamlined fish enhancement project to remove a levee and revegetate a floodplain 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.
