(ii) All new construction and substantial improvements shall be constructed using methods and practices that minimize flood damage.

Title: Anchoring-Flood
Wording All new construction and substantial improvements shall be anchored to prevent flotation, collapse, or lateral movement of the structure.

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: 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: F-PROPOSAL FINDING
Wording The proposal is to construct a new 1,775-foot-long by 10-foot-wide gravel surface multi-use, non-motorized trail (with 2 feet of shoulder to each side of the trail) within an existing easement.

Title: F-Approval for _____ Only
Wording This approval is for construction of Phase 1 of the Rick Tollefson trail 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: F-General PMT Notice
Wording NOTICE: This permit does not excuse the proponent from complying with other local, state, and federal ordinances, regulations, or statutes applicable to the proposed development, but consistent with RCW 90.58. Development pursuant to this permit shall be undertaken subject to the applicable policies and performance standards of the Jefferson County Shoreline Management Master Program and the Jefferson County Unified Development Code. If during excavation or development of the site an area of potential archaeological significance is uncovered, all activity in the immediate area shall be halted, and the Administrator shall be notified at once. The Federal Endangered Species Act rules to protect threatened Chinook and Summer-run Chum salmon became effective on January 8, 2001. Bull trout have been listed as threatened since early 2000. Under the ESA, any person may bring lawsuit against any individual or agency that "takes" listed species (defined as causing harm, harassing, or damaging habitat for the listed species). In addition, the National Marine Fisheries Service can levy penalties. Portions of Jefferson County, including marine environments are included as "critical habitat" for listed species. Development of property along any marine shoreline, freshwater shoreline, or floodplains could harm habitat if protective measures are not taken. To minimize the potential to damage habitat, all property owners developing adjacent to marine shoreline, freshwater shoreline, or floodplains are advised to do the following: - All development activities should avoid unstable slopes, wetlands, and forested areas near surface waters - Remove minimal vegetation for site development, especially large trees - Allow trees that have fallen into surface waters to remain there - Infiltrate stormwater from buildings and driveways onsite through drywells rather than discharging directly into surface waters or roadside ditches The Federal Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act requires landowners within 660 feet (1/8th of a mile) of an eagle nest to consult with the US Fish and Wildlife Service. This Eagle Act prohibits anyone from "taking" bald eagles. This federal law defines the term "take" and describes the possible legal consequences when a "take" occurs. Among other actions, "take" includes a disturbance of bald eagles or their habitat. Under federal law a permit may still be required for activities that impact bald eagles or their habitat. Contact the US Fish and Wildlife Service (http://www.fws.gov/pacific/eagle/) to learn more about how this law affects your project. Any individual, group, or agency can bring suit for a listed species "taking", even if you are in compliance with Jefferson County development codes. The risk of a lawsuit against you can be reduced by consulting with a professional fisheries habitat biologist, and following the recommendations for site development provided by the biologist. For more information, contact the National Marine Fisheries Service in Seattle, or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
