Less than 5 acres total (Flags numbering A-1 to A-28) Palustrine, forested, mixed, needle-lenved coniferous, broad- leaved deciduous, seasonally flooded, �esh water wetland. Category 3 based on a total score of 37 Ordinance 2909-06 Section 11.b requires a 75-ft buffer for Category 1, 2 and 3 wetlands that score beriveen 19 and 21 points for Habitat on the revised Washington State Wetland Rating Form (2004) Wetland A Habitat Points scored = 19 A logging road extends into the wetland. The wetland has been logged within the past 50 years, but has reverted �o forest. Pipeon Creek Pigeon Creek is located along the westem property boundary. The stream enters :.� site from the south, and flows northwest on �r near the property boundary. This stream is mapped as a seasonal non-fish bearing stream directly downstream of the subject property, based on City of Everett Critical Areas Map, indicating that the on-site portion of the stream is also seasonal. However, stream flow was observed during the on-site investigation in July, 2006, indicating perennial flow. The stream averages approximately 3 feet across, and approximately 2 feet deep. The substrate of Pigeu:i Creek consists of sand and silt with minimal small cobbles on-site. Pigeon Creek does not provide fish habitat as several barriers to fish passage is located downstream from the subject property. The on-site riparian b�rffer habitat consists of mixed deciduous/confierous forest. No obvious disturbance has occurred within ?igeon Creek on-site, however the off-site buffer vegetation has been removed, and residential lots are iocated within less than 100 feet ef the stream. Due to its apparent perennial flow and lack of fish habitat, this stream qualifies as an NP stream with intact vegetation on site, per Ordinance 2909-Oo. NP streams with intact native vegetation in t7�e City of Everett require a 50 ft. buffer.
