Ordinance 3676-19 - Laserfiche WebLink

e2. A biological assessment which meets the requirements of federal and state agencies may be accepted as meeting these requirements. 3. The HMP shall be evaluated by city, state and federal agencies with permit jurisdiction or expertise, as required by this section,and the director shall consider all comments submitted by state and federal agencies, and require necessary revisions to the HMP, if any, prior to accepting the HMP as final. 4. The director shall condition approvals of activities allowed within or adjacent to a habitat conservation area or its buffers, as necessary to minimize or mitigate any potential adverse impacts to the habitat conservation area and affected species. Mitigation measures shall be based upon the analysis, conclusions, and recommendations contained in the HMP.At a minimum, all requirements and mitigation measures necessary to avoid reducing the likelihood that the species will maintain and reproduce over the long term shall be required as permit conditions for the development proposal. H . Compensation for impacts within the 100-year floodplain. 1. Compensation must be provided for any effects to floodwater storage and fish habitat function within the 100-year floodplain. Indirect adverse effects of development in the floodplain (effects to stormwater, riparian vegetation, bank stability, channel migration, hyporheic zones, wetlands, etc.) must be mitigated such that equivalent or better salmon habitat protection is provided. 2. The mitigation plan shall stipulate avoidance and conservation measures, as are needed to ensure that there is no net adverse effect during any phase of the project. Outside the floodway or riparian habitat zone,the mitigation plan shall include such avoidance, minimization, restoration, conservation or compensation measures to mitigate all impacts. . - .:: - e - - •- -. - . 3.

Determine quality of functions affected (low, medium, high (- 1, 2, 31) during periods of inundation; high quality. d. Determine the area (acres) of each habitat type and quality affected. c. Identify an arq,a,type and quality of a proposed mitigation action. f. Determine the frequency of inundation of the proposed mitigation ar a. g. If the proposed mitigation area lies below OHW,the SEWIP Salmon Overlay may be used to assess the quality of habitat provided; low, medium, and high quality can be assessed with the SEWIP Tidal Planning Commission Resolution 19-04 Page 63 Critical Areas March 19, 2019
