In some cases, sections are "all new" and noted as such. The draft sections should be read in conjunction with the following documents distributed to the Planning Commission at prior meetings: • Preliminary Shoreline Environment Designations & Use and Modification Matrix Framework (updated version distributed at 4/10 meeting) • Excerpts From Ecology's Shoreline Master Program Submittal Checklist (distributed at 3/27 meeting) • SMP Update Guidance — Consistency (distributed at 3/27 meeting) • Comment letter (dated 1/31/13) from the Yakama Nation. PORTION OF CHAPTER 17.05 — GENERAL REGULATIONS 17.05.010 Archaeological and Historic Resources (All New) Consultant Note: Designed to meet WAC 173-26-221(1) and Yakama Nation comment letter to City in February 2013. A. The City shall require that permits issued in areas documented to contain archaeological resources require a site inspection or evaluation by a professional archaeologist. Auger tests may be required before construction and representatives of the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Yakama Indian Nation may be invited to observe any tests and construction work. If auger or historical data indicate probable presence of cultural resources which may be disturbed by excavation, the City shall meet the shoreline permit applicant and may impose conditions on any shoreline permit to assure that such resources are protected, preserved or collected. B. Developers and property owners shall immediately stop work and notify the City, the Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, and the Yakama Indian Nation if archaeological resources are uncovered during excavation. Following such notification, the City may follow the provisions of Subsection C. April 4, 2013 1 CITY OF YAKIMA SHORELINE MASTER PROGRAM DRAFT C. Where a professional archaeologist or historian, recognized by the State of Washington, has identified an area or site as having significant value, or where an area or site is listed in national, state or local historical registers, the City may require an evaluation of the resource, and appropriate conditions, which may include preservation and/or retrieval of data, proposal modifications to reduce impacts, or other mitigation authorized through the State Environmental Policy Act, or other local, state, or federal laws. 17.05.040 Water Quality, Stormwater, and Nonpoint Pollution (All New) Consultant Note: The County SMP has some jurisdiction -wide policies, but most policies are limited to critical areas and buffers and the regulations appear to be applied only to critical areas and buffers. The Consultants propose a more jurisdiction -wide set of regulations based on direction in the SMP Guidelines and relying on locally adopted manuals. A. Do not degrade waters. Design, construction and operation of shoreline uses and developments shall incorporate measures to protect and maintain surface and groundwater quantity and quality in accordance with all applicable laws, so that significant impacts to aesthetic qualities or recreational opportunities do not occur and so that there is no net loss of ecological functions. B. Requirements for new development. 1. New development and re -development shall manage short-term and long-term stormwater runoff to avoid and minimize potential adverse affects on shoreline ecological functions through the use of best management practices (BMPs) and/or through compliance with the latest edition of the Stormwater Management Manual for Eastern Washington or approved local equivalent if applicable to the project. 2. When the Stormwater Management Manual applies, deviations from the standards maybe approved where it can be demonstrated that off-site facilities would provide better treatment, or where common retention, detention and/or water quality facilities meeting such standards have been approved as part of a comprehensive stormwater management plan. C. Sewage management. To avoid water quality degradation, sewer service is subject to the requirements outlined below. Any existing septic system or other on-site system that fails or malfunctions will be required to connect to an existing municipal sewer service system if feasible, or make system corrections approved by Yakima Public Health. 2. Any new development, business, single-family or multi -family unit will be required to connect to an existing municipal sewer service system if feasible, or install an on-site septic system approved by Yakima Public Health. D. Materials requirements. All materials that may come in contact with water shall be untreated or approved treated wood, concrete, approved plastic composites or steel, that will not adversely affect water quality or aquatic plants or animals. Low Impact Development (LID). Use of the most current version of the Yakima Region Low Impact Development (LID) Stormwater Design Manual throughout the various stages of development, including site assessment, planning and design, site preparation, construction, and ongoing management, is encouraged.

We understand the variety and utility of the resources across the diverse landscapes of the ceded and traditional use lands. We expect the resources of cultural value to be preserved and protected for future generations. Sorne of the sacred foods of the Yakama People include chfish (water), nfisux (salmon), py6xi (bitterroot), Ifiksh (biscuftroot), sawilk (wild carrots), ?im6ash (camas), and wiwnu (huckleberries). Some sacred animals include pnit (elk), ydamash (deer), anahuy (bear), and xwayamd (eagle). Archaeological resources are a kind of cultural resource. They are important to the Yakarna Nation for their cultural value. Archaeological resources are physical manifestations of our ancestors in the landscape. Archaeological sites contain value to the Yakama People. They demonstrate the variety of activities by our ancestors across the diverse landscapes of Washington. Shorelines were a focus of multiple activities for millennia. Shorelines contain archaeological resources, whether previously recorded or still unrecognized (RCW 27.53.040). To facilitate the preservation and protection of resources of cultural value across the ceded and traditional use areas of the Yakama Nation, we expect the City of Yakima to utilize a systematic interdisciplinary approach that integrates natural and social sciences [RCW 90.58. 1 00(l)(a)] including archaeological field investigations when permitting all shoreline ground disturbing activities. The varieties of activities indigenous people have engaged in along the shorelines of the City of Yakima demonstrate the historic and cultural values contained in all of the shorelines in the City of Yakima [RCW 90.58.100(2)(8)]. Systematic archaeological field investigations of shoreline developments are necessary to insure that still unrecognized archaeological resources (RCW 27.53.040) are not disturbed. The Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) has a confidential database with known archaeological sites, The City of Yakima should enter into an agreement with DAMP for access to the database so that the city can screen every proposed project and Post Office Box ISI, Fort Road, Toppenish, WA 9894-8 (509) 86545121 insure that archaeological sites are not disturbed (RCW 27.53.060). Any project with a known archaeological site must be assessed by a professional archaeologist to determine site boundaries and protection plans. DAHP has created an archaeological predictive model for Washington State. DAHPs model should be used to trigger archaeological surveys whenever any portion of a proposed project includes "high risk" and/or "very high risk" for archaeological resources. Every permit needs to include an archaeological resource incidental discovery clause so the proponent knows what measures must be taken if archaeological resources are discovered during the project, The Washington State Legislature finds that the resources and ecology of the shorelines should be protected [RCW 90,58.020) and their management is required to be coordinated with affected Indian tribes [WAC 173-26-221 (1)(c)(ii)]. This necessitates that a consultation process with the Yakama Nation is established in the City of Yakima Shoreline Master Program. Shorelines are not the only area to contain cultural value; they are only part of the landscape that is of interest to the Yakama Nation. The Yakama Nation in no way precludes other areas needing investigation and protection for cultural value. By identifying these areas to the City of Yakima, the Yakarna Nation in no way waives its sovereign immunity rights. Thank you for your time and opportunity to assist in developing the City of Yakima's Shoreline Master Program. I look forward to continuing coordination and cooperation between the Yakama Nation and the City of Yakima staffs to implement resource protection, If there are any questions regarding the nature of these comments, please feel free to contact John Marvin at (509) 966-7406 or 949-2176.
