We object to the <br />requirement that the completion of a survey is <br />requisite on the concurrence of DAHP and affected <br />Tribes regarding the potential risk to cultural <br />resources in a project area. The CCT does not require <br />DAHP's concurrence to establish the validity of its <br />knowledge regarding a project area's potential to <br />contain cultural resources. <br />Section 178.05.010 Cultural, <br />Archaeological and historical <br />resources was part of a 2018 <br />settlement agreement between <br />Kittitas County, Confederated <br />Tribes and Bands of the Yakama <br />Nation, and Department of <br />Ecology.

Early coordination is <br />requested such that discussions may be held prior to <br />updates beins released for SEPA review. <br />Staff acknowledges WDFW's <br />interest in the SMP and CAO <br />updates, and will continue to <br />coordinate with the agency on <br />future updates. <br />17B.02 Definitions Elizabeth Torrey, <br />WDFW <br />rls/202r Add to section: <br />Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA): A construction <br />permit issued by the Washington Department of Fish <br />and Wildlife for work that will use, divert, obstruct, <br />HPA is referenced several times <br />through the SMP, but the existing <br />SMP does not define what an <br />HPA is.
