  • Chapter 3. Ecosystem Profile
    CHAPTER 3. ECOSYSTEM PROFILE 3.1 Introduction This ecosystem profile has been prepared to provide a basis for understanding how watershed processes affect the form and function of Mason County’s shorelines. This chapter provides an overview of the watershed conditions across the landscape and describes how ecosystem-wide processes affect the function of the County’s shorelines as required under shoreline guidelines outlined in WAC 173-26- 210(3)(d). This watershed-scale overview provides context for the reach-scale discussion provided in Chapters 4 through 9. The landscape analysis approach to understanding and analyzing watershed processes developed by Stanley et al. (2005) has been referenced to complete this section of the report. Terms used in this section are defined in the document entitled Protecting Aquatic Ecosystems: A Guide for Puget Sound Planners to Understand Watershed Processes (Stanley et al., 2005). The maps referenced in this chapter are provided in Appendix A (Map Folio). Mason County is located generally in the southwestern corner of the Puget Sound Basin in western Washington. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Mason County has a total area of 1,051 square miles, of which 961 square miles is land and 90 square miles (8.6 percent) is water. Elevations in the County range from 6,400 feet above mean sea level (MSL) in the foothills of the Olympic Mountains, to sea level along the coastline of Puget Sound and Hood Canal. The County includes portions of five Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs) as outlined below: • WRIA 14a: Kennedy Goldsborough; • WRIA 15: Kitsap; • WRIA 16/14b: Skokomish-Dosewallips and South Shore of Hood Canal; • WRIA 21: Queets-Quinault; and • WRIA 22: Lower Chehalis.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF WESLEY EARLYNNE FRANKLIN for the degree Master of Science (Name of student) (Degree) in Geology presented on November 22, 1974 (Major department) (Date) Title: STRUCTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF META-IGNEOUS FRAGMENTS IN THE PRAIRIE MOUNTAIN AREA, NORTH CASCADE RANGE, SNOHOMISH COUNTY, WASHINGTON Abstract approved by: Redacted for privacy Dr. Robert ID. Lawrence The interrelationship of rock assemblages in the Prairie Mountain area suggests that a Permo-Triassic subduction zone existed in the western North Cascades.The2fsquare mile rneta- igneous complex in the thesis area correlates with other tectonic bodies which occur west of the Straight Creek Fault.The rocks are uniquely associated with thrust faulting, a blueschist terrane and a possible melange of deformed Late Paleozoic sediments and meta- sediments.In the Prairie Mountain area the meta.- igneous rocks were emplaced by thrust and high-angle reversefaults into the Late Paleozoic Chilliwack Group.The meta-igneous rocks are metadio- rites, meta- quartz diorites, metatrondlijemites, mylonite gneis ses, rare greenstone metavoLcanic s and metamorphosed ultramafi.c s. Though the rocks were metamorphosed to the greenschist facies, only locally do they display a strong metamorphic fabric. A weak secondary cataclastic overprint resulting from ucoldtt intrusion is superimposed on the meta-igneous rocks. The meta-igneous rocks possibly represent fragments of island arc crust and/or oceanic crust that were incorporated into a Permo- Triassic subductj.on zone from a position

Trees, shrubs, flowers, wildlife, butterflies, lichen Photo by Karen Wallace Karen by Photo Teanaway History • The first inhabitants of the Teanaway River Valley were members of the Yakama, Cayous and Nez Perce Indian Tribes. The Teanaway Valley was part of the summering grounds for these tribes. The name Teanaway possibly had its origins in a Sahaptin word, tyawnawí-ins, meaning “Drying Place”. • The watershed is within the ceded area of the Yakama Nation under the Treaty of 1855. Photo by Adam Johnson Teanaway History Farming, grazing, and timber harvest became important within the watershed as European immigrants and other settlers began moving into the area in the late 1800s. Sheep and livestock grazing occurred, and at various times, several thousand head of livestock grazed in the area. Timber harvest within the forest began early in the 1900s.
