"Bankfull width" for defined channels means a measurement over a representative <br />section of at least 500 linear feet with at least 10 evenly spaced measurement points <br />along the normal stream channel but excluding unusually wide areas of negligible <br />gradient such as marshy or swampy areas, beaver ponds and impoundments.

Goals and Additional Requirements. If a development or redevelopment is proposed on or within a <br />distance which could impact habitats of primary association, significant biological areas, and/or <br />vegetative corridors linking watersheds, as described in this title, the applicant shall provide a habitat <br />assessment. In areas within the riparian habitat zone or special flood hazard area, a biological <br />assessment is required. The biological assessment shall be prepared in accordance with Regional <br />Guidance for Floodplain Habitat Assessment and Mitigation produced by FEMA Region 10, April 2011, or <br />as amended. The biological assessment must demonstrate that any proposed development in the <br />riparian habitat zone or the floodway, coupled with appropriate habitat conservation measures, does <br />not adversely affect water quality, water quantity, flood volumes, flood velocities, spawning substrate, <br />and/or floodplain refugia for listed salmonids. <br />If the habitat assessment/biological assessment determines that the proposed development could <br />potentially adversely impact a fish and wildlife habitat conservation area, the applicant shall provide a <br />habitat management plan (HMP) as described in this article, prepared by a wildlife biologist for
