Please let us know if you have any <br />questions. <br /> <br />Washington State Department of Health Office of Drinking Water – Russell Mau <br />Response: Suncadia Resort is actively engaged with Suncadia Water Company’s update of the resort <br />water model knowing the approved connection count is at 140 remaining approved connections after <br />this plat. Suncadia Resort LLC, through Suncadia Water Company, ensure continued conversation and <br />mitigation with Department of Health as we near the approved connection limit. <br /> <br />Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife – Scott Downes <br />Response: Suncadia recognizes that “Stream D” is currently listed as a Type F fish-bearing stream on the <br />DNR online GIS water maps. However, in the Master Planned Resort Final Environmental Impact <br />Statement (MPR-FEIS) and Master Drainage Report prepared for the Suncadia Resort “Stream D” is not <br />classified as a fish-bearing stream. The only fish-bearing streams determined in the MPR-FEIS within the <br />master-planned resort boundaries are Domerie Creek and Cle Elum River both of which do not enter or <br />encroach this development. Suncadia will submit a water type modification request for Stream D when <br />we submit our Forest Practice Application for this development. Pending review of the stream from the <br />Interdisciplinary Team, Suncadia will coordinate and implement the appropriate mitigation measures at <br />that time. We appreciate WDFW’s willingness to work with Suncadia on this process and anticipate <br />submitting applications soon. <br /> <br />Washington State Department of Transportation – Paul Gonseth <br />Response: Traffic impacts of the Master Planned Resort (MPR) continue to remain considerably lower <br />than the initial estimates in the MPR-Final Environmental Impact Statement.
