City of Everett Edgewater Creek Bridge Replacement <br /> archaeological survey will be prepared by the CONSULTANT for WSDOT review and <br /> coordination. <br /> • Endangered Species Act compliance is assumed demonstrated as "No Effect"through use <br /> of the WSDOT NEPA CE form checklist,through 4(d)maintenance program provisions, <br /> and through avoidance of any direct in-water work or wetland impacts. An independent <br /> Biological Assessment or Formal Section 7 ESA Consultation is therefore not assumed to <br /> be needed due to absence of listed species in or around the project area and the likely <br /> avoidance of impacts to wetlands or Edgewater Creek. <br /> • Avoidance of adverse Environmental Justice (EJ)effects is assumed to be demonstrated <br /> as"no impact to protected populations"through use of the WSDOT CE form and a <br /> provided EJ Technical Memo,and as related to outreach efforts to be coordinated and <br /> provided by others. Two sources of demographic data(per WSDOT requirements)will <br /> be compiled in a technical memo by the CONSULTANT to demonstrate no <br /> disproportionate impacts will occur to protected populations in the project area and <br /> vicinity. If disproportionate impacts are known or probable, or if supplemental outreach <br /> coordination is required by WSDOT related to EJ review, a supplemental scope and fee <br /> will be prepared for CLIENT consideration and authorization at the time any <br /> supplemental requirements are known in the future that are otherwise unforeseeable at the <br /> time of this scope preparation. <br /> • A Critical Areas Technical Memo will be provided for NEPA and SEPA documentation <br /> that will describe Edgewater Creek along with the project action and the avoidance of any <br /> direct impacts. No wetlands are assumed to occur in the work areas at the time of scope <br /> preparation, but a detailed site reconnaissance has not yet been conducted to prepare this <br /> scope and all potential work areas are not yet known that may be known during the <br /> PROJECT. However,no instream work in Edgewater Creek or wetlands is assumed to <br /> occur. Delineation field work and the project action will be limited to occur on city <br /> owned property and/or right-of-entry will have been approved by others prior to initiating <br /> any CONSULTANT field work in Task 4.1 and no subsequent delineation efforts are <br /> assumed in this task. Temporary vegetation disturbance to the riparian buffer of <br /> Edgewater Creek will be described and addressed with a vegetation restoration plan in <br /> Task 4.3. If wetland areas are discovered, and unavoidable wetland impacts are <br /> necessary,the CONSULTANT will make the CLIENT aware of this finding early in the <br /> project schedule and a supplemental scope and fee will be prepared for CLIENT <br /> consideration and authorization to address any additional documentation and related <br /> permit processes if determined to be necessary. <br /> • A 4(f)/6(f) Technical Memo will be provided by the CONSULTNAT to illustrate and <br /> describe temporary Edgewater Park impacts for CLIENT coordination of a letter of <br /> consent from Everett Parks for NEPA review that is assumed to indicate temporary <br /> staging use and related restoration of Edgewater Park. A 4(f) De Minimis form will be <br /> completed by the CONSULTANT for WSDOT evaluation of the 4(f)temporary park use. <br /> Page 16 of 42 <br />
