Conditions of Approval - Beringer <br /> FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS: <br /> 1 . Shoreline Master Plan <br /> Findings: The subject property is designated Urban-Undeveloped by <br /> the City's Shoreline Master Program which permits fill in conformance <br /> with the applicable regulations. The fill material would be obtained <br /> from maintenance dredging of the Snohomish River and/or from various <br /> upland sources. The Shoreline Master Program also requires the City <br /> to have a dredge spoils management plan. During the latest dredge <br /> cycle, the City, Port and Army Corps of Engineers had a difficult <br /> time locating sites to accept spoils generated by maintenance <br /> dredging of the Snohomish River channel. <br /> Conclusions: The proposed activity is consistent with the City of <br /> Everett Shoreline Master Program. <br /> This site may be used as a spoils disposal site for future <br /> maintenance dredging of the Snohomish River Channel. <br />
