16-105952DESIGNZu To: Leila Willoughby-Oe Company: City of Federal Way GDI Project: RE: FederalWay-3-01 Yoon Bulkhead File#15-102033-AD Memorandum From: Kevin Lamb, P.E. Date: July 21 , 2017 Page 1 I reviewed the GeoResources' letter titled "Final Letter - Shoreline Improvements, 31008 391h Place SW, Federal Way, Washington, PN:7582000070", and dated July 17, 2017. The report summarizes the mitigation of the MSE bulkhead wall that had been illegally constructed on the property. The MSE wall elements were removed and the area was returned to a similar condition prior to the wall construction. We reviewed the photographs in the report and the work appears to have been completed in accordance with the plans. Geotechnical observations that were required as part of the permit were not completed during construction, however, the resulting slopes and rockery type structures generally appear to be less than 4-feet in height, and resulting slopes appear less than 21-1:1 V. The post construction report appears adequate for the completed work. KJ L: kt Attachments One copy submitted (via email only) Document ID: External_Memorandum.docx © 2017 GeoDesign, Inc.

To: Leila Willoughby -Oakes Subject: RE: Geotechnical Report: 2nd Opinion Leila - I skimmed through their report. I completely agree this one should be peer reviewed. Main items I saw: ■ A discussion of the upslope drainage area and any influence from roof drains, surface water, etc. on existing conditions and the proposed walls should be included. ■ The scope of how much of the existing walls are required to be removed should be included and any required stabilization (soil nailing, tiebacks, etc.) for sections remaining should be added to the report. ■ Failure of rock bulkhead is referenced as to be repaired later. At a minimum, as part of any project approval, this should be required to be stabilized to prevent further failure and damage to this and the neighboring property. • Requirements for which foundations/walls (or all) must be designed for uplift should be included. The report references uplift requirements but it is unclear which walls this is necessary for. Additionally since the walls are proposed as segmental block, the report should address how the segmental block is to be attached to the foundation and upper courses of block. ■ Proposed retaining wall requirements should address the need for reinforcement. They are proposing to do it with deadmen, which is acceptable, however minimum setbacks from face of wall, batter requirements, etc. should be included. Discussion of how the deadmen are to be structurally connected should also be included. If it is through welding, requirements for repairing galvanizing should also be addressed. ■ Locations of foundation/wall drains should be added to the plan. ■ The deadmen appear to be proposed solely for the foundation. The report should address the need for reinforcement of the segmental block above the foundation. a The report references structural foam as an option instead of backfill. Given the proximity to the Sound, coupled with groundwater observed in the boring, requirements to prevent uplift of the foam behind the wall should be addressed. ■ A requirement for design, construction oversight of piling and foundations, and construction certification upon completion by a licensed engineer should be included. ■ Requirements for testing during construction should be identified in the report. ■ An overall global stability analysis of the wall systems and interactions between the various walls should be included in the report or required as part of the wall design. ■ As part of the wall design, a requirement that localized slope stability analysis be performed for critical sections should be included.

The subject property is located at 31008 39' Place Southeast in the City of Federal Way (City). Ecology has been assisting City staff in resolving unpermitted work within shoreline jurisdiction on this site. Establishing the OHWM is a key element in moving forward with resolution of this matter. Based on our recent site visit, I concur with the OHWM as staked by Soundview Consultants LLC in the field and as depicted in your OHWM analysis. This OHWM determination is consistent with the regulatory definitions found in the Shoreline Management Act (RCW 90.58.030(2)(c)) and implementing rules (WAC 173-22- 030(5)(a)). Thanks again for your assistance with this project. Please let me know if you have any questions. You may call me at (425) 649-7148 or send an e-mail to 12aan461@ecy.wa.go v.

The subject property is located in the Northeast'/4 of Section 11, Township 21, Range 03, W.M. (King County Tax Parcel Number 758200-0070). This Technical Memorandum has been written in order to resolve a prior violation and to document the results of the shoreline assessment conducted by Soundview Consultants LLC. The subject property was investigated to analyze the effects of the violation and to delineate ordinary high water (OHW) on January 29 and February 16, 2016. The OHW mark was determined using definitions provided in RCW 77.55.011 (11) and WAC 220.110.020 (69) and Ecology's guidance as detailed in "Determining the Ordinary High Water Mark on Streams in Washington State" (Olson, 2008). During the January 29`h site visit, high tide reached approximately +12.3 feet (MLLW), and during the February 16th site visit, high tide reached approximately +11.6 feet (MLLW), providing clear visual references to normal peak and mean higher high water (IVIHHW) elevations to assist in OHW determination. Evidence of OHW marks from adjacent and offsite properties was also used as support in the onsite OHW determination. Prior to the site investigation, background research was conducted using the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) Priority Habitat and Species (PHS) database, City of Federal Way Critical Areas Maps, King County iMaps, Washington State Department of Ecology (WSDOE) Coastal Atlas, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) maps. The subject property is currently developed with an approximately 3,500 square foot single-family residence and associated infrastructure. The northern property boundary abuts Dumas Bay in Puget Sound. The project proposes to remediate a shoreline violation with the City of Federal Way and restore upland areas damaged by failure of existing retaining walls. 1428.0001 Yoon Property Soundview Consultants LLC Shoreline Violation and Planting Plan 1 February 26, 2016 The initial site investigation consisted of a walk-through survey of all accessible areas within and adjacent to the subject property by Hannah Blackstock, Staff Scientist/Project Manager of Soundview. Five OHW flags were installed (Z-1 through Z 5) along the shoreline. OHW flags were placed according to observed and presumed wave action within interstitial voids of existing rip rap, evidence of soil erosion, and presence of un-eroded leaf detritus. Following discussion with WSDOE, a second site investigation during a tidal elevation close to MHHW, or 11.8 feet, was deemed necessary. During the second site investigation, the tide reached approximately +11.6 feet (MLLW), 0.2 feet lower than MHHW. Peak tides for Dumas Bay are approximately +13.0 feet (MLLW) (the January 14`' king tide reached +12.9 feet (NIILW)). Wave action has the potential to extend OHW further landward; however, the subject property is located within a relatively protected area of Dumas Bay where little significant wave action occurs except from occasional winter storms. No vegetation or soil was present within 4 to 6 feet of the face of the bulkhead onsite. In fact, there was no soil within the majority of the revetment because soil was undermined from underneath by a highly porous rock wall. All evidence of erosion observed behind the revetment appears to be result of a recent landslide and failure of the rock wall combined with direct precipitation and is located at elevation unlikely to receive any wave action other than minor overspray. As vegetation and soil indicators were not clearly present onsite, offsite conditions and tidal elevations were used to evaluate a conservative OHW estimate. Using an obvious line of eroded soils, undisturbed vegetation, and deposited woody debris observed approximately 100 feet to the west, a clear OHW mark was identified offsite that corresponds to approximately 13.0 feet in elevation. Based upon this off -site observation on an unarmored beach, a waterline observed on a concrete bulkhead immediately to the west, and the observations of tidal elevation, the OHW flags were relocated to the inside edge of the existing rock bulkhead where an angular rock revetment begins. In addition, evidence in support of this OHW determination included: racked woody debris located on the beach at the outer face of the bulkhead, lawn grasses growing up to the face of the adjacent bulkhead to the east, leafy detritus accumulated from autumn present up to the face of the onsite bulkhead. Also, there were no signs of water overtopping the adjacent concrete patio and bulkhead area that is at an elevation of +16 feet (MLLW). The OHW flags are located approximately 2 to 4 feet landward of external face of the bulkhead onsite. They are located at an elevation of approximately +14 to +15 feet (MLLW). Please see Appendix A and B for a sketch of flag locations and photographs, respectively. The agreement of OHW location will impact how remediation will be designed to restore the shoreline. Soundview has identified restoration concepts that have been discussed with the Applicant and geotechnical engineer. Once OHW is confirmed by the City of Federal Way, the restoration plan can be prepared for submittal. If you have any further questions please contact me at your earliest convenience.

It has been determined that the proposal will not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. As a result, an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required to comply with the State . Envirownental Policy Act (SEPA). A copy of the Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) is enclosed. A 14-day comment period is required by the SEPA rules (WAC 197-1 1-340). A notice inviting comments will be published in the Federal Way Mirror, posted onsite, posted on the official public notification boards of the city and public libraries, and mailed to all property owners within 300 feet of the site on January 13, 2017. At the end of the comment period (January 27, 2017), the department will determine if the DNS should be withdrawn, modified, or issued as proposed. All final determinations may be appealed within 21 days (February 17, 2017) following the comment deadline. No licenses, permits, or approvals will be issued until completion of the appeal period. Our decision not to require an EIS does not mean that the license, permit, or approval you are seeking from the city has been granted. Approval or denial of the proposal will be made by the appropriate administrative or legislative body vested with that authority. After a final decision has been made on your proposal (i.e., after a permit has been issued), you may, but are not required to, publish a Notice of Action as set forth in RCW 43.21 C.075. The Notice of Action sets forth a time period after which no legal challenges regarding the proposal's compliance with SEPA can be made. A copy of the Notice of Action form and copies of RCW 43.21 C.080 and WAC 197-11-680 providing instructions for giving this notice are available from the Department of Community Development. The city is not responsible for publishing the Notice of Action.

Management Summary This report describes the cultural resources assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, Federal Way, King County, Washington. Joe Yoon requested a cultural resources assessment in support of permitting existing retaining walls, patio, and potential future bulkhead at his property in Federal Way, Washington. This assessment was developed to identify any previously recorded archaeological or historic sites in the project location and to evaluate the potential for the project to affect cultural resources. Background research and field investigations conducted by Cultural Resource Consultants did not result in the identification of any previously unrecorded historic or archaeological sites. No further cultural resources work is recommended. 1. Administrative Data Re op rt Title: Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, Federal Way, King County, Washington Author s . Sonja Kassa Report Date: February 17, 2016 Location: The project is located at 31008 39h Place SW in Federal Way, King County, Washington. Legal Description: This project is located on King County Tax Parcel 758200-0070. The legal description for the project is in Township 21 North, Range 03 East, Section 11, Willamette Meridian. T TSGS 7.5' Too =hic Ma 2 s : Tacoma North, WA (1997) (Figure 1). Total Area Involved: less than 1 acre. Objective esearch Desi This assessment was developed as a component of preconstruction environmental review with the goal of preventing cultural resources from being disturbed during construction of the proposed project by identifying the potential for any as -yet unrecorded archaeological or historic sites within the project area. Cultural Resource Consultants (CRC) work was intended, in part, to assist in addressing state regulations pertaining to the identification and protection of cultural resources (e.g., RCW 27.44, RCW 27.53). The Archaeological Sites and Resources Act (RCW 27.53) prohibits knowingly disturbing archaeological sites without a permit from the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP), and the Indian Graves and Records Act (RCW 27.44) prohibits knowingly disturbing Native American or historic graves. Due to the permitting process, DAHP requested an archaeological survey to ensure that no cultural resources are affected during property improvements (Attachment A). CRC's investigations consisted of review of available project information and correspondence provided by Souidview Consultants and Joe Yoon, local environmental and cultural information, CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 1 and historical maps. CRC also contacted cultural resources staff of the Duwamish Tribe, Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, Puyallup Tribe of Indians, and the Suquamish Tribe to inquire about project -related cultural information or concerns (Attachment B). The Squamish Tribe responded that they did not have any specific information to add regarding the proposed project. Any additional information made available subsequent to the submission of this report will be included in a revision of this report. This assessment utilized a research design that considered previous studies, the magnitude and nature of the undertaking, the nature and extent of potential effects on historic properties, and the likely nature and location of historic properties within the project area, as well as other applicable laws, standards, and guidelines (per 36CFR800.4 (b)(1)) (DAHP 2015). Project Description: Joe Yoon requested a cultural resources survey to be used in support of permitting existing retaining walls and patio, and potential future bulkhead repair on his property at 31008 39th PI SW, Federal Way, WA 98335 (Figures 2-5). Recorded Cultural Resources Present: Yes [ ] No [x] No archaeological or historic sites have been previously recorded within the project. 2. Background Research Background research conducted in February 2016. Context Overview: Numerous cultural resources investigations have been prepared by CRC (Berger 2008; Diedrich and Kassa 2012) and other cultural resources firms (Dampf 2005; Daugherty 2006; Flenniken and Trautman 2012; Nelson 1998; Shong and Miss 2006) in the Dumas Bay vicinity. The context presented here summarizes environmental, ethnographic, historical, and archaeological information presented in these reports by reference; archaeological and historic data from DAHP and the Washington Information System for Architectural and Archaeological Records Data (WISAARD) records search; ethnographic resources; geological and soils surveys (e.g., USDA NRCS 2016; WA DNR 2016); and historical maps and documents from Bureau of Land Management United States Surveyor General (USSG) Land Status & Cadastral Survey Records database, HistoryLink, Historic Map Works, HistoricAerials (NETR 2016), University of Washington's Digital Collection, Washington State University's Early Washington Maps Collection, and in CRC's library. Environmental Context: Federal Way is located within the Tsuga heterophylla (Western hemlock) vegetation zone, in the Puget Lowland physiographic province (Franklin and Dyrness 1973). The project is located on a shoreline bluff on the southern shore of Dumas Bay along Puget Sound. To the west is an enclosed lagoon within a near sea level depression and to the east is Joe's Creek located within a ravine that separates the project landforni from the bluff to the east. Surface GeoloM. The surface geology of the project area is mapped as Quaternary (Pleistocene) continental glacial drift (WA DNR 2016). This geologic unit is described as Pleistocene till and outwash clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles, and boulders deposited by or CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 2 originating from continental glaciers. Locally this material may consist of peat, non -glacial sediments, modified land, and artificial fill. Mapped Soils: Soils mapped in the project area consist of Coastal beaches (USDA NRCS 2016). No depositional profile was provided for this unit. Recent geotechnical testing within the project area conducted by GeoResources (2015) provides the surface and subsurface context for Us project. The project area is located on a shoreline bluff that ranges between 30 and 80 percent in slope with. approximately 45 feet of vertical relief with areas considered to be unstable. The slope is terraced to provide use and beach access and the existing single-family residence is located near the top of the bluff. Subsurface exploration included two subsurface auger holes reaching 9 to 10 feet in depth. These explorations revealed "8 to 12 inches of crushed rock, over fine to medium sand with fine gravel and variable silt content" (GeoResources 2015:2). Archaeological Context: Thousands of years of human occupation in Puget Sound area have been summarized in a number of archaeological, ethnographic, and historical investigations over the past several decades that provide a regional context for evaluating the project area (e.g_, Greengo 1983; Larson and. Lewarch 1995; Nelson 1990). Archaeological evidence suggests that as the transition into an ice -free regional landscape allowed the area to be suitable for habitation by approximately 11,000 years ago (Kruckeberg 1991:22). Subsequent changes to landforms, climate, and vegetation influenced the available resources and, consequently, the spatial distribution of human activities. In the Puget Sound, similar to elsewhere, human land use was generally structured around the value of natural resources available in local environments including fresh water, terrestrial and marine food resources, forests, and suitable terrain. Ethnohistoric economies were structured based on seasonally available resources, which translated to seasonal occupation and logistic mobility. Permanent villages were generally established along rivers during the winter, and temporary camps were used while traveling to obtain seasonal food sources during the warmer summer months. Local Indian people shared many broadly defined traditions with their inland Puget Sound neighbors, including subsistence emphasis on salmon and other fish, land game, and a wide variety of abundant vegetable foods as well as household and village communities linked by family and exchange relations (Suttles and Lane 1990). Traditional Territory: The project area is located within the traditional territory of Southern Lushootseed (Puget Salish) speaking peoples currently represented by the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe (Suttles and Lane 1990:485); however, it is likely that the neighboring Puyallup and Duwamish tribes also made use of this area. The Muckleshoot Tribe comprises groups who traditionally lived and used resources in the Green and White River valleys and adjacent plateaus (Suttles and Large 1990:Figure 1). The name Muckleshoot is derived from a named place on Muckleshoot Hill, BE `kEkcul, translated as "where a certain medicinal plant grows" (Waterman 2001:171). Here, Muckleshoot Indian Reservation was later established. EjEo a hic Context: Twentieth century ethnographers documented locations of villages and names for resource areas, water bodies, and other cultural or geographic landscape features CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 3 from local informants. Waterman (ca. 1920, 2001) recorded three named places on the Puget Sound shoreline around Dumas Bay and southwestern end of Poverty Bay: • Qa'gahwEts translated as "crabapples," is the name of a "a very small creek at Buenna," south of Redondo Creek (Waterman 2001:75, Table 5.5). • Kokowi'ltsa, translated as "blanket of marmot skins," for a boulder known as Blanket Rock because the surface appeared "folded and crinkled" like a blanket (2001:75). According to Duwamish oral history, this rock originated from a woman running along the beach away from her husband who was turned to stone by the Transformer; her husband threw a marmot blanket over the rock (Waterman 2001:69). • Stsoxwa'bats, translated as "chokecherry," is the name given to a stream west of Blanket Rock, where a low cliff and numerous chokecheny trees were located (Waterman 2001:75). This stream is likely referring to Joe's Creek approximately 0.8 kilometers (km) northeast of the project area. Historic Context: A synopsis of the history of the Federal Way and Dumas Bay area is found in Dampf (2005:8): Euro-American settlement in the area known today as Federal Way began in the 1850s when the U.S. Army constructed a road to move troops from Fort Steilacoom to Seattle in response to the 1855-56 Indian Wars (Historical Society of Federal Way 2002:3). The first road in King County, the Military Road was mainly devoted to military use for the next 20 years but hastened settlement throughout the region. Federal homestead legislation contributed to a steadily increasing population throughout the second half of the 19th-century. Settlers seeking title to public lands in what became King County claimed lands through the 1862 Homestead Act and its subsequent revisions. By 1890, most of the Native American population dispersed from the Federal Way area as Euro- American settlement continued along the shores of Poverty Bay at places such as Stones Landing, known today as Redondo (Historical Society of Federal Way 2000:4; Star Lake Improvement Club 1955:3). Farming was on a relatively small scale; most homesteads grew their own food and crops for their livestock (Historical Society of Federal Way 2000:3). Small steamers carrying mail between Seattle and Tacoma made regular stops offshore (residents had to row out and hail the steamer) at several points along the way, including Dumas Bay, Buenna, and Stones Landing. Logging began in the early 1900s as local operations were established along the shores of Poverty Bay. Most of the virgin timber was hauled to the present site of Salt Water State Park, but there were also operations at Woodmont Beach and Stones Landing (Star Lake Improvement Club 1955:8)... Sawmills were processing the timber within the area only a few years after the first logging operations began, and by 1930, the supply was exhausted.., In 1915, a new, gravel surfaced highway (the Seattle -Tacoma Highway, now known as Pacific Highway South) was built with federal fiords and was known as the Federal highway. Community development was slow after logging operations ceased, but attendant CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 4 problems of housing shortages following World War jJ and the development of Seattle -Tacoma International Airport in 1946 brought an influx of new residents to the area (Star Lake Improvement Club 1955:13). When the city was incorporated in 1990, it became known as the City of Federal Way. Historical Records Search: Review of historical maps and aerial imagery provides an understanding of the land use and ownership of the project parcel. The US SG (1886) map does not depict any annotations in the project vicinity. Joe's Creek is present on the map_ Anderson (1907) shows the project area within parcel owned by A. G. Hairing, the parcel was later subdivided and belonged to C. L. Osmond (Kroll 1912, 1926) followed by R. B. Brown (Metsker 1936). The earliest available aerial imagery of the project area is from 1936 at which time the area was forested and undeveloped and SR 509 was present in its current location (NETR 2016). Imagery from 1964, shows that the project and surrounding area had been logged and graded with 39 h and 38'h Ave constructed in preparation for future residences. Over the following decades, the lagoon to the west appears to have been largely filled in and single-family residences continued to be constructed in the local neighborhood. The single-family residence on the project parcel was constructed in 1966 and is outside of the project area (Ding County 2016). Photographs available on the King County Assessor show that the house has been modernized since construction. DAHP KSAARD; A review of the WISAARD database identified the previous cultural resource studies and recorded precontact and historic sites, which help gauge the potential and likely nature of cultural resources within the project (DABP 2016). No historic register properties, historic inventory properties, or cemeteries are located within the project vicinity. Seven cultural resources assessments have been conducted within 1.5 kilometers of the project area (Table 1). Only one of these identified previously unrecorded archaeology (Shang and Miss 2006); their findings are discussed. below. Two precontact shell midden sites are located on the eastern shore of Dumas Bay. The nearest is 45KI58, located approximately 0.65 km to the east on a north facing bank approximately 100 meters inland and 10 meters above the shoreline and adjacent to Lakota Stream (Moura 1980). This site was estimated to be 25 meters east -west by 7 meters north -south with a depth of 25 centimeters below surface. Site 45Ki732, located approximately 1.15 km to the northeast, was identified during a cultural resources assessment for a bulkhead removal project (Shang 2006; Shong and Miss 2006). This site consists of shallowly buried Ridden deposits (shell, faunal remains, and fire -modified rock) along a wave eroded beach terrace. The dimensions of this site are a 6.5-meter extent along the shoreline and shell lenses up to 10 meters west of the main deposit. Deposits ranged between 15 and 25 centimeters in depth. 3. Archaeological Expectations Archaeological Predictive Model: The DAHP statewide predictive model uses envirwiniental data about the locations of known archaeological sites to identify where previously unknown sites are more likely -to be found. The model correlates locations of known archaeological to environmental data "to determine the probability that, under a particular set of environmental conditions, another location would be expected to contain an archaeological site (Kauhi and CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 6 Markert 2009:2-3). Environmental data categories included in the model are elevation, slope, aspect, distance to water, geology, soils, and landforms. According to the model, the project location is ranked as having a high potential for archaeological sites, likely due to its coastal location and proximity to local freshwater streams. Archaeological Expectations: This assessment considers the implications of the predictive model coupled with an understanding of geomorphological context, local settlement patterns, and post - depositional processes to characterize the potential for archaeological deposits to be encountered. The precontact and historic use of the southern shore of Dumas Bay has been documented in in numerous sources discussed above. Despite this and the predictions generated by the DAHP predictive model, the project area is considered to have a lower potential to contain significant (i.e. intact) archaeological deposits for the following reasons: • Soil data indicate the project area has undergone significant geologic disturbance and post -glacial soil development is sparse. Archaeological deposits would be present above glacial deposits, which, due to the paucity of Holocene sedimentary deposition in the project area and vicinity, would be near the present-day ground surface. • No recorded archaeological sites or ethnographically named places were identified within the project area. • Local geomorphology and the mapped depositional context indicated that intact, undisturbed archaeological deposits, if present, would occur on more gently sloping surfaces and would likely be shallowly buried. Given the nature of the subject property it is likely that potential deposits were disturbed or redeposited by earth moving activities such as residential development or natural costal erosion. • The project area is located on an unstable coastal bluff of extreme relief and has been currently terraced to provide shoreline access from the residence above. Presumably, the use of the project area prior to these developments was likely restricted. 4. Fieldwork Total Area Examined: The entire project (less than 1 acre). Areas not examined: None. Date(s)_ofSurvey_: February 15, 2016 Weather and Surface Visibility: Weather conditions were 50 degrees, overcast, and misty. Mineral soil visibility within the project area was poor and largely obscured by the presence of concrete pavers, retaining walls, landscaping, and fill. Some soil exposures were present in places where the retaining walls were failing. Fieldwork conducted b : Sonja Kassa. Notes are on file with CRC. Fieldwork consisted of surface survey and subsurface testing via hand excavated shovel test probes (STPs). Prior to subsurface testing, the archaeologist conducted a pedestrian survey of the project in an effort to understand the current condition and gauge the potential for as yet CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 6 unknown archaeology within the project boundary. The project area consisted of a steep hillside of 45-foot vertical relief that had been cut into approximately five artificial terraces consisting of concrete block retaining walls and pavers, hard armoring and obscuring the surface (Figures 6-8). The retaining walls and adjacent pavers were actively failing and eroding down the hillside. Hillside conditions on the property to the northeast provided insight to the natural conditions that previously characterized the project area (Figure 9). This comparison demonstrated that little if any of the original topography and surface sediments remained intact within the project area. Two STPs were excavated in the northern portion of the project area to observe the subsurface conditions that characterize the project area (Figures 10 and 11; Table 2). The STPs were placed along the eastern margin on the northern and southern comers of the project area where surface armoring was absent. The probes were manually excavated with a shovel and all sediments were passed through 1/4-inch hardware mesh to screen for artifacts. The probes were 30 centimeters in diameter. Native sediments were present in the project area below landscaping beauty bark and fill behind the bulkhead. Observed native sediments consisted of light gray moist unconsolidated fine sand with few gravels; consistent with the mapped soils and geotechnical observations. These probes were negative for archaeological material and were backfilled immediately following documentation. 5. Results Cultural Resources Identified: None. Project Conclusions Findings and Recommendations: Reconnaissance survey and subsurface testing did not identify any archaeological material or historic sites within the project. Results of background research and field observations indicate a low potential for the project to affect archaeological deposits based on the extreme relief of the project area; evidence that surface deposits have been excavated away during logging and landscaping activity removing any surface or shallowly buried deposits; and proximity to more suitable landforms where local archaeology has been previously identified. CRC recommends that the project proceed without further archaeological oversight. In the unlikely event that ground disturbing or other activities do result in the inadvertent discovery of archaeological deposits (see protocol in Attachment Q, work should be halted in the immediate area and contact made with DAHP in Olympia. Work should be halted until such time as further investigation and appropriate consultation is concluded. In the unlikely event of the inadvertent discovery of human remains, work should be immediately halted in the area, the discovery covered and secured against fuuher disturbance, and contact effected with law enforcement personnel.

Ground disturbing Washington project actions were expected to be limited to outside the mapped site boundaries and were not likely to affect cultural resources. However, construction traffic was anticipated on the access road. It was recommended that site boundaries be flagged and protected prior to construction, to ensure that the site was not disturbed.

The area has a high potential for archaeological resources. There is a precontact archaeological site approximately 2,000 feet from the project. The project parcel is depicted on the Statewide Archaeological Predictive Model as having the highest probability for containing precontact archaeological resources. If this project had be reviewed by DAHP prior to implementation, a professional archaeological survey would have been requested. Please be aware that archaeological sites are protected from knowing disturbance on both public and private lands in Washington States. Both RCW 27.44 and RCW 27.53.060 require that a person obtain a permit from our Department before excavating, removing, or altering Native American human remains or archaeological resources in Washington. Failure to obtain a permit is punishable by civil fines and other penalties under RCW 27.53.095, and by criminal prosecution under RCW 27.53.090. Chapter 27.53.095 RCW allows the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation to issue civil penalties for the violation of this statute in an amount up to five thousand dollars, in addition to site restoration costs and investigative costs. Also, these remedies do not prevent concerned tribes from undertaking civil action in state or federal court, or law enforcement agencies from undertaking criminal investigation or prosecution. Chapter 27.44.050 RCW allows the affected Indian Tribe to undertake civil action apart from any criminal prosecution if burials are disturbed. We request a professional archaeological survey of the project area be conducted at this time. The survey should include subsurfacc methodology that will pcmetrate the unpennitted improvements to sample native sails. If archaeological resources are identified, a permit tmm DAHP and mitigation and restoration will be required under RCW 27.53. The survey may take place at the time of the geotechnical testing so that the geotech samples may be examined by a professional archaeological. A copy of the completed survey report should be submitted to DAHP and the interested Tribes for review prior to petrnil ing so that we can determine if a permit from DAHP and additional archaeological work is required under RCW 27.53. If any federal funds or permits are involved Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended, and its implementing regulations, 36CFR800, must be followed.

Inadvertent discovery protocol. Protocols for Discovery of Archaeological Resources In the event that archaeological resources are encountered during project implementation, the following actions will be taken: In the find location, all ground disturbing activity will stop. The find location will be secured from any additional impacts and the supervisor will be informed. The project proponent will immediately contact the agencies with jurisdiction over the lands where the discovery is located, if appropriate. The appropriate agency archaeologist or the proponent's contracting archaeologist will determine the size of the work stoppage zone or discovery location in order to sufficiently protect the resource until further decisions can be made regarding the work site. The project proponent will consult with DAHP regarding the evaluation of the discovery and the appropriate protection measures, if applicable. Once the consultation has been -completed, and if the site is determined to be NRHP-eligible, the project proponent will request written concurrence from the agency or tribe(s) that the protection and mitigation measures have been fulfilled. Upon notification of concurrence from the appropriate parties, the project proponent will proceed with the project. Within six months after completion of the above steps, the project proponent will prepare a final written report of the discovery. The report will include a description of the contents of the discovery, a summary of consultation, and a description of the treatment or mitigation measures. Protocols for Discovery of Human Remains If human remains are found within the project area, the project proponent, its contractors or permit -holders, the following actions will be taken, consistent with Washington State RCWs 68.50.645, 27.44.055, and 68.60.055: If ground -disturbing activities encounter human skeletal remains during the course of construction then all activity will cease that may cause farther disturbance to those remains. The area of the find will be secured and protected from further disturbance. The proj ect proponent will prepare a plan for securing and protecting exposed human remains and retain consultants to perform these services. The finding of human skeletal remains will be reported to the county medical examiner/coroner and local law enforcement in the most expeditious manner possible. The remains will not be touched, moved, or fiuther disturbed. The county medical examiner/coroner will assume jurisdiction over the human skeletal remains and make a determination of whether those remains are forensic or non -forensic. If the county medical examiner/coroner determines the remains are non -forensic, then they will report that finding to DAHP, which will then take jurisdiction over the remains. DABP will notify any appropriate cemeteries and all affected tribes of the find. The State Physical Anthropologist will make a determination of whether the remains are Indian or Non -Indian and report that finding to any CRC Technical Memorandum #1602F-1 Cultural Resources Assessment for the Yoon Bulkhead Project, King County, Washington Page 29 appropriate cemeteries and the affected tribes. DAHP will then handle all consultation with the affected parties as to the future preservation, excavation, and disposition of the remains.

This information is also helpful to determine if available avoidance, minimization or compensatory mitigation measures will address the probable significant impacts or if an environmental impact statement will be prepared to further analyze the proposal. Instructions for Applicants This environmental checklist asks you to describe some basic information about your proposal. Please answer each question accurately and carefully, to the best of your knowledge. You may need to consult with an agency specialist or private consultant for some questions. You may use "not applicable " or "does not apply" only when you can explain why it does not apply and not when the answer is unknown. You may also attach or incorporate by reference additional studies reports. Complete and accurate answers to these questions often avoid delays with the SEPA process as well as later in the decision -making process. The checklist questions apply to all parts of your proposal, even if you plan to do them over a period of time or on different parcels of land. Attach any additional information that will help describe your proposal or its environmental effects. The agency to which you submit this checklist may ask you to explain your answers or provide additional information reasonably related to determining if there may be significant adverse impact. Instructions for Lead Agencies Please adjust the format of this template as needed. Additional information may be necessary to evaluate the existing environment, all interrelated aspects of the proposal and an analysis of adverse impacts. The checklist is considered the first but not necessarily the only source of information needed to make an adequate threshold determination. Once a threshold determination is made, the lead agency is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the checklist and other supporting documents. Use of Checklist for Nonproject Proposals For nonproject proposals (such as ordinances, regulations, plans and programs), complete the applicable parts of sections A and B plus the SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET FOR NONPROJECT ACTIONS (part D). Please completely answer all questions that apply and note that the words "project," "applicant," and "property or site" should be read as "proposal," "proponent," and "affected geographic area," respectively. The lead agency may exclude (for non -projects) questions in Part B - Environmental Elements that do not contribute meaningfully to the analysis of the proposal.

The shoreline will be restored by regrading the slope, replanting native vegetation and reducing the size and area of the paver path to pre -violation conditions. The existing bulkhead will be repair and rehabilitate in order to restore the structure to a state comparable to its original condition. Wind and wave action has led to the current condition.

We are applying for a shoreline exemption under Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 173-27-040 (2)b. We feel the restoration of the disturbed slope to its previous configuration and the repair and rehabilitation of the existing bulkhead, to restore the structure to a state comparable to its original condition, meets the requirements for an exemption from substantial development pen -nit requirement. The repair of the existing bulkhead is needed to stabilize the toe of the slope so the restoration activities have a stable foundation to prevent movement to the hillside. We feel these repairs will not cause substantial adverse effects to the shoreline resources or environment. The proposed project was designed to reduce existing adverse impacts by restoring and reestablishing previously impacted habitat. The existing, legally established bulkhead was constructed several feet below Ordinary High Water (OHW). We are proposing to restack the damaged and deteriorating rock bulkhead landward of OHW. This will reestablish approximately 300 square feet of upper intertidal habitat. Regrading and replanting the impacted slope with native vegetation will enhance stormwater retention and provide habitat for shoreline birds and wildlife. We are also applying for a SEPA determination with the City of Federal Way. Please find the required material attached. Application Submittal Material 1.
