ESA 02-05
May 28, 2002
Findings:
1. An application for review under Chapter 15.20 PAMC (Environmentally Sensitive Areas)
was received on May 3, 2002, from Roy Nelson, which proposes the addition of 5 feet to
an existing 4 foot deck and the enclosure of the original 4 feet of deck with a sunroom.
The project is located on a site with a marine bhiff that is classified as an
Environmentally Sensitive Area, and the required setback from the top of the bluff is 25
feet. The slope of the blulTranges from approximately 120% at the top, to 50% towards
the base. The bluffis approximately 120 feet in height. The upland area of the site
slopes to the south, away from the bluff, at approximately 5%. The buildings and paved
area of the site drain to the 4/5 alley and into the City's storm drainage system.
2. The subject property consists of Lot 5 Block 109, vacated Forth Street and a portion of
Lot 16, Block 110 that extends to the bottom of the bluff. The parcel is over 10,000
square feet in size. Access to the parcel is from the 4/5 alley.
3. The proposed project is the addition of 5 feet to an existing 4 foot deck and the enclosing
of the original 4 foot area of the deck with a sunroom. The site currently contains a single
family residence of 1,244 square feet and a 720 square foot carport connected to the
house by a 200 square foot breezway. The Total lot coverage is 2,144 square feet. The
proposed project will add an additional 180 square feet to the site. Site coverage is less
than 30%.
4. The subject site is zoned RS-7, Residential Single Family. Standard setbacks for
properties in the RS-7 zone that do not contain environmentally sensitive areas are 20 feet
from the front and rear with a 7-foot interior side yard and a 13-foot comer side yard.
Thirty (30%) percent lot coverage is permissible.
5. The subject property is designated Medium density Residential in the Comprehensive
Plan. The relevant Comprehensive Plan elements are;
Conservation Element, Goal B; To protect and enhance the area's unique
physical features, its natural, historical, archaeological, and cultural amenities,
and the overall environment.
· Policy B4; Building density should decrease as natural constraints increase.
Policy B6; The City should regulate site design, preparation, and development to
avoid or minimize damage to wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas.
Policy BS; The City shouM preserve uniquely featured lands which still exist in
their natural states and which are notable for their aesthetic, scenic, historic, or
ecological features and should prohibit any private or public development which
would destroy such qualities, while recognizing the rights of private ownership.
· Policy B 14; The City should maintain and enhance the quality of water resources
through the regulation of clearing, grading, dumping, discharging, and draining
and the provision of flood and erosion control measures and regulations to
protect wetlands and other environmentally sensitive areas.
6. The subject property meets the definition of a marine bluff as defined by PAMC 15.20
(Environmentally Sensitive Areas Ordinance). The purpose of the Chapter is to protect
environmentally sensitive areas in accordance with the Growth Management Act. The
intent of the Chapter is to use a function and values approach and establish minimum
ESA 02-05
May 28, 2002
standards for properties containing environmentally sensitive features in order to protect
the public health, safety and welfare which includes: a) avoiding disturbance of these
areas, b) mitigation such impacts, c) protection the public from personal injury, loss of
life or property damage due to erosion and landslides, etc., and d) protection against
publicly financed expenditures from misuse of environmentally sensitive areas.
7. The subject property is considered a previously altered area as defined by Section
15.20.080(3) PAMC. The upland area is highly developed with single family homes and
yards. Landscaping extends to the top of the bluff. The base of the bluff is protected by
the development of Marine Drive and rip rap being placed along the shoreline.
Development within such areas may be developed subject to criteria (a)-(f) as specified in
Chapter 15.20.
8. Marine buffers may be reduced per 15.20.070(B)(4) PAMC when expert verification and
environmental information demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Community
Development Director that the proposed construction method will: a) Not adversely
impact the stability of ravine sidewalls and luffs: b) Not increase erosion and mass
movement potential of ravine sidewalls and bluffs: c) Use construction techniques which
minimize disruption of the existing topography and vegetation; and d) Include measures
to overcome any geological, soils and hydrological constrains of the site.
9. A Geotechnical engineering report, dated April 30, 2002, was submitted with the
application. The Geotechnical report authored by Zenovic and Associates, Inc., indicated
that no adverse impacts to the stability of the bluff would occur from placement of the
deck support column 21 feet from the top of the bluff.
10. The application included an environmental checklist as required under RCW 43.21C and
PAMC 15.04. The checklist and supporting geotechnical data indicate that there were no
potential environmental impacts such as unstable slopes or erosion.
11. On May 28, 2002, a Determination of Nonsignifance was issued by the SEPA
Responsible Official in accordance with RCW 43.21 C, WAC 197-11 and PAMC 15.04.
12. Public notice was provided on the application during the SEPA process whereby no
objections or comments were received.
Conclusions:
1. As conditioned, the proposal is consistent with the requirements for developing within an
Environmentally Sensitive Area as defined in PAMC 15.20. As designed and
conditioned, the proposal will incorporate design techniques and best management
practices which will result in the least impact to the sensitive area.
2. The geotechnical report submitted as a part of the environmentally sensitive areas
application provide a basis for conditioning the building activity such that it will be in the
public interest, safety and welfare.
3. As conditioned, The proposal will result in the least impact to the sensitive area and take
into consideration site constraints associated with the subject property.
4. The subject property is considered a previously altered area as defined by Chapter
ESA 02-05
May 28, 2002
15.20.080(3) PAMC. Development within such areas may be developed subject to
criteria (a)-(f) as specified in the Chapter.

REGIONAL GEOLOGIC AND SOIL CONDTIONS
According to the Soil Survey of Clallam Area, General Soil Map, the City of Port Angeles
area and the surrounding region are comprised of Elwha-Clallam-Catla soil association.
These soils are typically moderately well-drained, nearly level to very steep slopes on
hills, underlain by compact glacial till. Inspection of the soil maps of the site indicate that
the property lies along the north edge of an extensive Elwha soil area that extends from
the Elwha River on the west to the Dungeness River on the east, from the foothills of the
Olympic Mountains on the south to the Strait of Juan de Fuca on the north.
The Elwha-Clallam-Catla soils are derived from weathered glacial till. These soils were
deposited by the ice sheet during the Vashon stade glaciation. The Vashon G~acial Til~
consists of a poorly sorted mixture of rock fragments deposited directly by the Vashon-
age ice sheet. Finer portions of the soil consist of clay, silt, and sand. These fine
particles comprise a moderately to highly compact matrix in which the coarser
components (gravel, cobbles, and boulders) are firmly imbedded.
SITE OBSERVATIONS
An engineer from Zenovic & Associates, Inc. conducted a site visit on April 9, 2002 to
observe the site slopes, vegetation, surface and immediate subsurface hydrology, and
evaluate in-situ soils for density.
Existing Slopes
The site currently has an existing two-story dwelling and a detached garage. The
dwelling is located approximately 30 feet from the top edge of the marine bluff. The
garage is located to the south of the dwelling along the alley. The alley provides access
to the site; 4~h Street does not exist in this area. The bluff is approximately 180 feet high
and is covered with brush and small trees. The slope of the bluff ranges from 120%
near the top to approximately 50% near the bottom. The property slopes downhill to the
south, away from the edge of the bluff, at approximately 5 percent. The dwelling and
garage both have gutters and downspouts that direct the stormwater runoff from the roof
into the existing storm sewer system in the 4/5 alley. Likewise, all impervious surfaces
to the south of the dwelling are graded such that the stormwater runoff is directed to the
alley.
Properties to the east and west of the subject site are developed in a manner similar to
this property, with a dwelling near the edge of the bluff and garages and parking areas
along the alley. The yard areas for these properties and the subject site are covered
with lawn and shrubbery. No drainageways cross any of the properties and no runoff is
directed over the face of the bluff. Some localized bluff sloughage was observed on the
face of the bluff, consistent with weathering impacts typically seen on the protected
bluffs above Marine Drive. No significant slope failures were observed in the vicinity of
the site.

April 30, 2002
Soil Conditions
The soils on the upland area are mapped as Clallam-Hoypus gravelly sandy loams in the
Soil Survey. The soils along the bluff are mapped as Dystric Xerothents, extremely
steep, in the Survey. The Clallam-Hoypus soils are a mix of the outwash material that
was deposited along the edge of the glaciers as they receded and the finer, unsorted
sands and gravels that were deposited directly by the glacier. Both soil types are
relatively free-draining; the difference is that the Hoypus soils extend for significant
depths, while the Clallam soils are underlain with a glacial till, a fine sand and silt that
has been compressed by the overlying glacier. This glacial till layer is essentially
impervious to water.
Vegetation
The upland area of the property has vegetation typical of residential development - lawn
areas, ornamental shrubs and trees. The bluff slope area has an understory of brush
with fairly dense stand of alders. At the base of the bluff, in the colluvial soils, the trees
tend to be primarily alders, although some conifers were noted.
The trees on the property do not exhibit a pistol-grip growth form that is indicative of
slopes with soil movement or creep. The vegetation on the properly indicates that the
slopes are generally stable.
Hydrology and Drainage
No surface depressions or runoff channels were observed on the property. The site has
no upgradient tributary area and moderately welt-drained soils. No groundwater
seepage was observed on the property or on the face of the ravine bluff. Given the
unusually wet winter in the area. it appears that neither surface nor subsurface water
impacts are of concern.
Uniform Building Code Site and Soil Categorization
The site is within Seismic Zone 3 as per the Uniform Building Code. Soil typing is
required by the Uniform Building Code to determine building response under seismic
conditions. No test pit excavations were completed for this analysis, so underlying soil
types are not known. Given the geologic data available, however, and the conditions
observed, it is our opinion that Soil Type Sd should be used when calculating horizontal
and vertical accelerations at the site.
]-he site soils can be classified as a sand or silty sand consistent with Class 4 materials
as set forth in Table 18-1-A of the Uniform Building Code. Allowable foundation
pressure, lateral bearing, and lateral sliding values as set forth in the table are
appropriate for this site. Increases for depth and width as set forth in the table footnotes
are no~t recommended for this site, due to the proximity to the steep bank.

CONCLUSIONS
The proposed project will impose minimal loads on the upland area of the bluff in close
proximity to the house. New support posts shall be no closer than 20 feet from the edge
of the bluff. Given the limited scope of the project and the fact that the proposed
sunroom will be substantially supported by the existing house and associated
improvements, the project will not endanger the stability of the bluff. It should be
recognized, however, that construction in close proximity to any marine bluff needs to be
completed with minimal impacts to the area between the construction and the bluff.
RECOMMENDATIONS
General
The proposed project shall be constructed in conformance with all requirements of the
City of Port Angeles including, but not limited to, the Uniform Building Code and
applicable clearing, grading, drainage, and erosion control requirements.
Excavation and Grading
Excavation for the proposed foundation components shall be carried to firm, substantial,
unyielding subsoil, at a depth of not less than four (4) feet below the existing surface
grade. Excavations shall be completed by hand, and excavated material shall be
stockpiled on the patio area to the south of the excavation or removed from the site; no
stockpiling of excavated material in the area between the patio and the top of the bluff
will be permitted.
Excavation work shall occur not earlier than May 1, and shall be complete to the
permanent condition before October 1.
Drainage and Erosion Control
Drainage facilities shall be provided to direct the runoff from all impervious surfaces,
including the sunroom and associated deck, to the existing City of Port Angeles
stormwater system in the 4/5 alley. No runoff from impervious surfaces shall be
permitted to flow over the edge of the bluff. Existing stormwater collection/disposal
systems shall be inspected to confirm that they are working properly and that any
additional volumes added to the system will not exceed the system capacity.
Slope Maintenance
Finished slopes should be adequately vegetated to prevent surficial runoff. No organic
material, including grass clippings and tree or brush trimmings should be placed on any
slopes steeper than 3 horizontal to 1 vertical. These materials may help hold water on
the slope, thereby reducing slope stability.
