Jones, has a B.S. degree in Biology and 35 years full-time work as a wetland scientist in Western Washington. His resume is attached to this report. 2 5.0 Methodology The wetland assessment and delineation were performed using the 1997 Washington State Wetlands Identification and Delineation Manual (DOE, 1997) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers “Interim Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Western Mountains, Valleys, and Coastal Region (COE. 2010). The Routine Small Area Methodology is “used when the project area is small, plant communities are homogeneous, plant community boundaries are abrupt, and the project is not controversial.” The wetland determination was based on the presence of the three criteria for jurisdictional wetlands, hydric soils, wetland hydrology, and hydrophytic vegetation. Wetlands were rated with the updated Washington State Department of Ecology 2014 wetland rating methodology (Hruby, 2014). The assessment included a review of the National Wetland Inventory, the Department of Natural Resources Forest (DNR) FPARS stream typing maps, the City of Renton Critical Areas Map, the WDFW Priority Habitats and Species (PHS) online report, and the USDA National Resource Conservation Service’s online soil survey. The field determination and wetland delineation were performed on November 14, 2022. The weather was overcast and raining both days. The wetland scientist was Jeffery S. Jones. The wetland boundary was originally flagged and delineated in May of 2022 by The Watershed Company. The Watershed Company wetland delineation was checked and found to be accurate. Their wetland boundary flags are still in place. The wetland flags are numbered A-1 thru A-28 (see Critical Area Map). There are two sample locations identified as SL-1 and SL-2. 6.0 Wetland Determination, Classification, Rating, and Regulatory Requirement There is a large wetland, identified as Wetland A, on the south side of tax parcel 9358 and diagonaling through the west half of tax parcel 9360. The wetland is identified on the attached Water Class and Wetland City Inventory Map, the WDFW PHS online report, and the National Wetland Inventory, see the attached maps. The wetland extends from N.E. 10th St. south to N.E. 4th Court. The wetland is mapped as Alderwood gravelly sandy loam soil series, see the attached Soils Map. However, Alderwood typically has inclusions of hydric soils in depressions and drainage patterns. Sample location-1 (SL-1) represents the upland slope above Wetland A, see the attached data sheet. At SL-1, soils profile is dry and does not meet the hydrology criteria. Soils have a 10YR 4/3 brown matrix at 10 inches and non-hydric. The slope is dominated by Himalayan blackberry (Rubus armeniacus), see photo pages of view from street. The dominant plants species are greater than 50% FAC or wetter plant species and meet the criteria for a hydrophytic plant community. Therefore, SL-1 is not wetland. SL-2 represents Wetland A, see the attached data sheet. The soil profile is a 10YR 2/1 black silt loam. All one chroma soils are hydric. The soils profile was saturated to the soil surface. Saturated soils meet the criteria for wetland hydrology. The plant community is strongly positive for wetlands. Dominant plants are 100% FAC or wetter species. Wetland A rates as a Category II, see the attached rating form and rating figures. The HGM classes are Riverine and Depressional, when these two HGM’s are present the Depressional rating sections are used for the rating. The entire wetland is a Palustrine forested wetland (PFO) (Federal 3 Geographic Data Committee. 2013). The total score is twenty-one points, and the habitat score is 6 points. The wetland buffer requirement is 150 feet, RMC 4-3-50G. 7.0 Stream Determinations, Classifications, and Regulatory Requirements Honey Creek is mapped in the same drainage pattern as the wetland, see the attached DNR FPARS map. However, there is no channel of flow within the wetland west of the subject parcel. The wetland is seasonally flooded up to the delineated wetland boundary. There is a defined stream channel north of N.E. 10th St. Immediately south of N.E. 10th St., Honey Creek is incorrectly inventoried as a Type Ns stream according to the Water Class and Wetland City Inventory Map, see attached. The DNR FPARS water typing map identifies the stream as a Type F, however there is no stream channel. There may be a stream channel farther to the south in the drainage. The stream buffer requirement for a Type F stream is 150 feet with a 15-foot BSBL, RMC 4-3-50G. The stream buffer could be interpreted as the extent of seasonal flooding. It does not extend beyond the wetland buffer because the wetland boundary is also 150 feet. There is also a tributary to Honey Creek that flows east to west south of wetland boundary flags A-29 to A-19. The source of this tributary appears to be a stormwater pond. The tributary is a Type Ns stream with a 50-foot buffer. 8.0 Functions and Values of the Wetland Wetland A is a Palustrine Forested (PFO) wetland (Cowardin, 1979). There are at least two small ponds within the wetland. Wetland A provides significant flood retention and mediation ability. Wetland habitat functions are moderate because the stream is non-fish bearing and there is significant development around the perimeter of the wetland, breaking access to other habitats. The wetland contains a large number of snags and lots of woody debris that provide wildlife habitat for shelter, feeding, nesting, and roosting. Habitat interspersion is low because there is only one Cowardin class. There is at least one quarter acre of seasonally inundated thin-stemmed vegetation or wood branches for amphibian egg-laying structures. Wetland A and the surrounding uplands are not habitat for any priority species, and there are no priority habitats other than those identified in the wetland. 9.0 Wildlife Observations Only one incidental wildlife species was observed, the American robin (Turdus migratorius). The PHS online report does not identify any priority species, see attached PHS report. 10.0 Impact Assessment No direct impacts to wetlands, streams, or priority habitats will occur as a result of the proposed development. Impact to the wetland buffer is unavoidable and will necessitate a variance to the code for tax parcel 102305-9360. It may not be possible to provide the minimum buffer allowed in the code, in which case a variance to the code would be required. An impact analysis report will be prepared along with the mitigation plan and other variance submittal documents. 11.0 No Net Loss The proposed project will not result in any loss of wetland area or functions. “No net loss” is a federal, state, and local jurisdiction goal that the further loss of wetlands and wetland functions will not occur. Governor Booth Gardner’s Executive Order 89-10 states, “Section 1. It is the interim goal of my administration to achieve no overall net loss in acreage and function of 4 Washington’s remaining wetland base. It is further the long-term goal to increase the quantity and quality of Washington’s wetlands resource base.” 14.0 Mitigation & Mitigation Sequencing A variance to the buffer requirement will require use of mitigation sequencing and mitigation for buffer impacts. Mitigation will comply with the applicable order sequence requirements for mitigation sequencing. Incompliance with mitigation sequencing, the project will avoid all direct critical area impacts and provide mitigation for unavoidable buffer impacts. Onsite rehabilitation of buffers may provide mitigation for buffer impacts. The remaining critical areas and their buffers will be protected in permanent tracts that will be maintained and monitored according to the approved Restoration Plan. 15.0 Analysis of Criteria Requested for Stream Study Will the project provide an overall improvement in water quality? The project will direct stormwater runoff from impervious surface into the city stormwater system and a dispersion trench. Reestablishment of a native plant community in the remaining buffer will protect and provide a minor overall improvement in water quality. Will the project provide an overall enhancement to fish, wildlife, or their habitat? Reestablishment of a native plant community in the critical area buffer will provide an overall improvement to wildlife and their habitat. Himalayan blackberry will be eliminated from the buffer enhancement area and replaced with native plant species that benefit wildlife. Will the project provide a net improvement in drainage and/or stormwater detention capabilities? The building envelope area is currently dense Himalayan blackberry, indicating that the area was previously cleared, graded, and compacted. Runoff from the building envelope will be directed into the city storm water system and to a dispersion trench. The dispersion trench will provide a net improvement in stormwater drainage release and detention. Will the project be materially detrimental to any other property of the city as a whole? The project will not be materially detrimental to any property of the city. The proposed development is one single-family residence which is consistent with other single-family residences along 10th Ave. N.E. Frontage improvements will benefit the community. Will exposed soils be stabilized with native vegetation? The remaining critical area buffer will be stabilized with native vegetation. Exposed soils in the development area will be protected according to an approved temporary erosion and sediment control plan. A 15-ft building setback area around a portion of the structure will be landscaped at the completion of building construction. 16.0 Authority and Statement of Accuracy This wetland determination is in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The critical area determination, delineation and ratings are accurate to the best of the Professional Wetland Scientists ability and knowledge. No assumptions were made for the work performed. 5 17.0 Limitations Stream and wetland determinations and delineations are not final until approved by regulatory agencies and/or local jurisdictions. J. S. Jones and Associates, Inc. does not guarantee acceptance or approval by regulatory agencies, or that any intended use can be achieved. 18.0 Summary Wetland A occupies a portion of the subject tax parcels. Wetland A is a Category II wetland with a 150 foot buffer requirement. Honey Creek and a tributary of Honey Creek flow through Wetland A. However, there is no defined stream channel for Honey Creek in the wetland. A liberal interpretation of determining the ordinary high water mark, would place the ordinary high water mark along and near the wetland boundary where seasonal flooding extends. The stream is identified as a Type F stream on the DNR water typing map. The buffer requirement is 115 feet plus a 15-foot bsbl. The tributary to Honey Creek, south of the site is a Type Ns stream with a 50-ft buffer requirement. The 50-ft stream buffer does not extend onsite. No direct impacts to wetlands or streams are proposed. Buffer impacts are unavoidable. Buffer impacts will be mitigated onsite in accordance with city code. No priority habitats or species will be impacted. Critical areas and their buffers will be protected by placing them in either a native growth protection easement or critical area tract. 6 19.0 References COE. 1987.

This report includes information that the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) maintains in a central computer database. It is not an attempt to provide you with an official agency response as to the impacts of your project on fish and wildlife. This information only documents the location of fish and wildlife resources to the best of our knowledge. It is not a complete inventory and it is important to note that fish and wildlife resources may occur in areas not currently known to WDFW biologists, or in areas for which comprehensive surveys have not been conducted. Site specific surveys are frequently necesssary to rule out the presence of priority resources. Locations of fish and wildlife resources are subject to variation caused by disturbance, changes in season and weather, and other factors.
