Smith Island, North Spencer Island, and Ferry Baker Island <br /> The overall goal for restoration in the Smith/North Spencer/Ferry Baker Islands area is <br /> restoration of historic tidally influenced estuarine wetland and to increase the IVA rating <br /> by at least 7,500 IVA acre-points. Additional restoration opportunities include buffer <br /> restoration and log storage removal enhancement. <br /> 1. Public Property <br /> Summary of Restoration Opportunities/Goal <br /> a. City of Everett and Corps of Engineers - Dike Breach East of Sewer Lagoons (Site <br /> 24 in Salmon Overlay Figures 4.14, 4.16) - Goal: 4,292 IVA acre-points of tidal <br /> habitat gained from mitigation 2,590 IVA acre-points of tidal habitat gained from <br /> restoration. <br /> b. Slough Reconnection in Langus Park (Site 18 in Salmon Overlay Figures 4.14, <br /> 4.16). Goal: 1,370 IVA acre-points. <br /> c. Port of Everett Expansion of Union Slough dike breach.

Port of Everett - Removal of Dredge Materials on Ferry Baker Island (Site 9 in <br /> Salmon Overlay Figures 4.14 - Approximately 714 IVA acre-points could be gained <br /> from removal of the fill on the site. <br /> Description of Individual Restoration/Goals <br /> a. Existing Project: Dike Breach East of Sewer Lagoon (Site 24 in Salmon Overlay) <br /> (1) Project Description: This Dike Breach Project is projected to restore <br /> approximately 93 acres of tidal habitat along Union Slough. The southern 35 <br /> acres is restoration that is not tied to any redevelopment project. The northern <br /> 58 acres is compensatory mitigation for dike enhancements and future wetland <br /> impacts. <br /> The approximately 58 acres of compensatory mitigation provides <br /> • 0.41 acres of compensatory mitigation credit for past dike maintenance <br /> projects <br /> • 36.59 acres of advanced compensatory mitigation credit for future City of <br /> Everett dike improvements and wastewater treatment plant projects <br /> • approximately 7.8 acres is considered compensation for the conversion of <br /> freshwater wetlands to tidal wetlands, and <br /> 122 <br /> Section 3 General Goals, Objectives, Policies and Regulations Page 3-52 <br />
