Critical Areas Checklist
The Critical Areas Checklist contained on
this form is to be filled out by any person
preparing a Development Permit
Application for the City of Edmonds prior
to his/her submittal of a development
permit to the City.
The purpose of the Checklist is to enable
City staff to determine whether any
potential Critical Areas are or may be
present on the subject property. The
information needed to complete the
Checklist should be easily available from
observations of the site or data available at
City Hall (Critical Areas inventories, maps,
or soil surveys).
An applicant, or his/her representative,
must fill out the checklist, sign and date it,
and submit it to the City. The City will
review the checklist, make a precursory site
visit, and make a determination of the
subsequent steps necessary to complete a
development permit application.
With a signed copy of this form, the
applicant should also submit a vicinity map
or plot plan for individual lots of the parcel
with enough detail that City staff can find
and identify the subject parcel(s)_ In
addition, the applicant shall include
other pertinent information (e.g. site
plan, topography map, etc.) or studies in
conjunction with this Checklist to assist
staff in completing their preliminary
assessment of the site.
I have completed the attached Critical Area Checklist and attest that the answers provided are
factual, to the best of my knowledge (fill out the appropriate column below).

CRITICAL AREAS RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
Site Location: 336 Admiral Way Tax Acct. Numbers: 2627032001XXXX,
(additional new address 27032300401400,
of 326 Admiral Way) and 2327034158009
Determination: Study Required Determination #: CRA-1996-250 (Updated)
Applicant: Steve Butterfield Owner: Port of Edmonds
NOTE: THE ORIGINAL RECONNAISSANCE CONDUCTED FOR THIS PROPERTY ON
JANUARY 7, 1997 DETERMINED THAT THE PROPERTY DID NOT CONTAIN ANY
CRITICAL AREAS AND A "WAIVER" FROM THE REQUIREMENT TO CONDUCT A STUDY
WAS ISSUED. HOWEVER, SINCE THE TIME OF THE ORIGINAL RECONNAISSANCE, IT
WAS DETERMINED THAT THE PROPERTY CONTAINS AND/OR IS ADJACENT TO A
SEISMIC HAZARD AREA. THEREFORE, THE ORIGINAL RECONNAISSANCE HAS BEEN
CHANGED, AND THE CURRENT CRITICAL AREAS DETERMINATION FOR THE
PROPERTY IS "STUDY REQUIRED" DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF A SEISMIC HAZARD
AREA.
CRITICAL AREAS RECONNAISSANCE REPORT: STUDY REQUIRED
During review and inspection of the subject site, it was found that the site contains and/or is
adjacent to critical areas, including a Seismic Hazard Area, pursuant to Chapters 23.40 and
23.80 of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC).
GENERAL CRITICAL AREAS REPORT REQUIREMENTS
Critical Areas Reports identify, classify, and delineate any areas on or adjacent to the subject
property that may qualify as critical areas. They also assess these areas and identify any
potential impacts resulting from your specific development proposal. If a specific development
proposal results in an alteration to a critical area, the critical areas report will also contain a
mitigation plan. You have the option of completing the portion of the study that classifies and
delineates the critical areas and waiting until you have a specific development proposal to
complete the study. You may also choose to submit the entire study with your specific
development application.
• Please review the minimum report requirements for all types of Critical Areas that are
listed in ECDC 23.40.090.D. There are additional report requirements for different types
of critical areas (see below).
• Note that it is important for the report to be prepared by a qualified professional as
defined in the ordinance. There are options on how to complete a critical areas study,
and there is an approved list of consultants that you may choose from. You may contact
the Planning Division for more information.
• General Mitigation Requirements for all Critical Areas are discussed in ECDC 23.40.110
through 23.40.140.
STUDY REQUIREMENT — SEISMIC HAZARD AREA
It appears that this property contains and/or is adjacent to a Seismic Hazard Area. Seismic
hazard areas are areas subject to severe risk of damage as a result of earthquake -induced
ground shaking, slope failure, settlement, soil liquefaction, lateral spreading, or surface faulting.
Settlement and soil liquefaction conditions occur in areas underlain by cohesionless, loose, or
soft -saturated soils of low density, typically in association with a shallow ground water table.
DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS ASSOCIATED WITH SEISMIC HAZARD AREAS
Development within a Seismic Hazard Area must meet additional criteria.
• A report by a licensed Geotechnical Engineer is required for applicable projects within
Seismic Hazard Areas. Note that it is important for the report to be prepared by a
qualified professional as defined in the ordinance.
• Geotechnical reports within Seismic Hazard Areas must address liquefaction.
• Report requirements are provided in ECDC 23.80.050 and more generally in ECDC
23.40.090. D.
• Activities proposed to be located in seismic hazard areas shall meet the development
standards of ECDC 23.80.060.
ALLOWED ACTIVITIES
Certain activities are allowed in or near critical area buffers as specified in ECDC 23.40.20. If
you have any questions about whether your proposed development qualifies as an allowed
activity, please contact a Planner for more information.
EXEMPT DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
Certain development proposals may be exempt from Critical Areas Requirements (ECDC
23.40.230). If you think that a specific development proposal may be exempt, contact a
Planner for more information.
NOTE: Cited sections of the Edmonds Community Development Code (ECDC) can be found on
