As a result of this inspection, the Applicant modified the site plan to minimize any wetland impact. This modification includes no construction on the wetland. (staff report) 17. On March 21, 1989, the Department of Ecology reviewed the requested development and the impact on the wetlands on the property. They determined that with enhanced plantings along the west edge of the wetlands and the use of the fence to minimize the impact of the wetlands, the project could be developed as proposed. (exhibit 21) 18. Because of the limitations of construction in the wetlands and the Department of Ecology requirements that there be enhanced plantings along the western edge of the wetlands and a solid wooden fence of at least six feet in height, the Applicant has modified the site plan. The proposal of the Applicant is to provide the plantings and fence and a 25 foot to 50 foot variable width buffer along the west edge of the wetlands. In addition, the Applicant proposed a foot path adjacent to the wetlands to direct foot traffic and prevent excessive pedestrian traffic in the wetlands. (Ervine testimony) 19.
