Describe the use planned for the site, any development plans after acquisition (including passive development), characteristics of the site which demonstrate that it is well-suited to the proposed use, and plans for any structures currently on the site. If applicable, describe how the site relates to the larger project, and whether the project has a plan, schedule and funding dedicated to its completion. Please also list any important milestones for the project or critical dates, e.g. grant deadlines. List the dates and explain their importance. The goal of the Dosewallips River Lazy C Phase I project is to support the recovery of ESA threatened Hood Canal Summer Chum salmon and natural floodplain functions in the lower three miles of the Dosewallips River by initially acquiring two properties in the lower Lazy C I community, 1.5 miles upstream from Brinnon and Hood Canal. The parcels are located near the upper extent of the Powerlines Reach, a mostly unconstrained 1.3- mile section of the river and a very important spawning area for summer chum. This project will add to the large complex of protected open space lands in the lower river acquired by Jefferson County and Washington State Parks to benefit salmon and provide for compatible recreational uses. Summer chum rely upon complex habitat for their genetic diversity and resilience to climate change. Acquisition of the lots will hopefully lead to additional acquisitions which, together, will provide the open space necessary to the design of installations to stabilize spawning gravels and to retain the habitat features associated with stable, large wood. Engineered designs will “facilitate normative channel patterns and stable side channels, backwaters, or stable vegetated islands” (Lestelle 2015) and be refined and implemented in consultation with an advisory group convened by the County to include representation from the Lazy C and Brinnon communities. Secondarily, the acquisitions and subsequent project phases may reduce the likelihood that shoreline armoring, similar to the rock work just upstream, will be necessary in order to protect Appaloosa Drive. The primary project objectives are: Acquire the two parcels (0.86 acres) fee simple or, if necessary, protect them with a conservation easement to allow for restoration of salmon habitat and to prevent impacts to water quality. Replant and under plant as needed to restore and enhance a diverse native conifer forest on each parcel. Continue outreach to the Lazy C community leading to additional nearby acquisitions and the opportunity to develop one or more designs for restoration actions. Jefferson County began acquiring and protecting high functioning riparian habitat in the lower Dosewallips River beginning in 2005 and eventually also purchased and restored three parcels in the Lazy C. These, and the two subject parcels, were platted in 1966 on property that was originally developed as the Lazy C Ranch dude ranch. Parcel -044 was originally cleared as a home site which later succumbed to the river along with the road which formerly connected the Lazy C I and II developments. It’s used seasonally as an RV campsite. Parcel -047 is forested with mature trees and doesn’t appear to have been developed in the past with the exception of a buried community water supply line from the PUD #1 tanks along Dosewallips Rd. Both properties will be managed for native vegetation consistent with soil conditions. Structures on the parcels are limited to a shed and the water line. The Dosewallips River flows west to east in a meandering pattern, linking cool melt water from the Anderson Glacier and other high elevation areas with Hood Canal at its eastern most extent. The river’s channel migration zone is relatively flat, however the slopes steepen greatly as the distance from the river increases, north to Green Hill and south to the Mount Jupiter ridgeline. The surrounding land use is mixed with residential development to the northwest. To the east and south of the subject parcels are relatively inaccessible county-owned open space 3 2019 CF Program Application FINAL http://www.co.jefferson.wa.us/560/Conservation-Futures-Program lands including excellent off channel habitat for salmonids and other fish and wildlife. Neighboring areas are enjoyed by recreationists travelling upstream of Dosewallips State Park. Washington State Parks envisions a trail corridor to eventually link Hood Canal with Olympic National Forest. Funding for acquisitions, as part of the larger restoration effort, have been approved by the RCO SFRB and is awaiting a final award determination by the state legislature. The Powerlines Reach is located between the upstream extent of the Brinnon Flats where a volcanic outcrop naturally constricts the channel, and the Lazy C “I” residential development where there is another bedrock exposure. The reach appears to be a zone of deposition, and sediment accumulations and stranded wood are common. Although the Powerlines Reach is largely protected open space, unconstrained and relatively intact compared to more developed

It provides a foundation for further planning to ensure that County leadership, agencies, and citizens are aware and prepared to meet the effects of disasters and emergencies. Incident management cannot be event driven. Through increased awareness and preventive measures, the ultimate goal is to help ensure a unified approach that will lesson vulnerability to hazards over time. The HIVA is not a detailed study, but a general overview of known hazards that can affect Jefferson County. Jefferson County Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment 2011 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An integrated emergency management approach involves hazard identification, risk assessment, and vulnerability analysis. This document, the Hazard Identification and Vulnerability Assessment (HIVA) describes the hazard identification and assessment of both natural hazards and technological, or human caused hazards, which exist for the people of Jefferson County.

Since the failure of the Articles of Confederation, the federal government has consistently asserted its preeminence over the states. Federal supremacy has been as evident in the field of hydropower facility regulation as it has been in any other area of governmental regulation. However, in PUD No. 1 of Jefferson County v. Washington Departmentof Ecology,' the Supreme Court of the United States found that the federal government relinquished to the states some of its control over the authority to license and relicense hydropower projects.

Their expertise and familiarity with the sub-watersheds within Water Resource Inventory Area (WRIA) 18, and their interest and willingness to share their knowledge, allowed us to complete this report. Two TAGs, one for the Dungeness Watershed (Bell Creek to Bagley Creek), and one for Morse Creek to the Elwha River, were utilized through much of the information collection phase of report development, with several of the members participating in both groups. The TAG participants from both groups are consolidated in the following list: Kevin Bauersfeld Department of Fish and Wildlife Lloyd Beebe Resident, owner of Olympic Game Farm Walt Blendermann Resident, City of Sequim John Cambalik North Olympic Lead Entity Coordinator Randy Cooper Department of Fish and Wildlife Pat Crain Elwha Klallam Tribe Steve Evans Department of Fish and Wildlife Joel Freudenthal Clallam County Dick Goin Resident, City of Port Angeles Mark Haggerty U.S. Forest Service Paul Hansen Clallam Conservation District Donald Haring Conservation Commission Randy Johnson Department of Fish and Wildlife Ray Johnson Department of Fish and Wildlife Eloise Kallin Protect the Peninsula’s Future Mike McHenry Elwha Klallam Tribe Cynthia Nelson Department of Ecology Linda Newberry
