Such discussion shall include a discussion of the ongoing management practices that will protect habitat after the project site has been developed; The general mitigation plan requirements of KCC $ 174.01.080 as well as the fish and wildlife habitat conservation area mitigation requirements of KCC $ 17A.04.070, if the alteration or development will result in unavoidable impacts to fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas; and g. Methods and measures to avoid, minimize and/or compensate for adverse impacts associated with the proposed development, including, but not limited to: i. Prohibition or limitation of use, alteration, and development within the fish and wildlife habitat conservation area; Retention of vegetation and/or re-vegetation of areas/habitats critically important to species; Special construction techniques; Implementation of erosion and sediment control measures; Habitat restoration or enhancement (e.g., fish passage barrier removal); Seasonal restrictions on construction activities on the subject property; Clustering of alterations or development on the subject property; and viii. Any other requirements and/or recommendations from federal, state, or local special management recommendations, including the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife's habitat management guidelines. (Ord.202l-016,2021) S 17A.04.070. Mitigation requirements. 1. General mitigation requirements. Mitigation for alteration or impacts to fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas shall achieve equivalent or greater biological functions and shall include mitigation for adverse impacts upstream and downstream of the development project site. Mitigation shall address each functional attribute affected by the alteration to achieve functional equivalency or improvement on a per function basis. Mitigation elements may include, but are not limited to: restoration of previously degraded areas and key habitat features; restoration of riparian vegetation communities to provide shade and large woody debris; addition of large woody debris; and installation of upland habitat features. 2. Buffer for aquatic habitat conservation mitigation sites. Any aquatic fish and wildlife habitat conservation areathat is created, restored, or enhanced as compensation for approved alterations shall be assigned the same buffer as would be required for the category of the original aquatic fish and wildlife habitat conservation area. Type of mitigation required. In determining the extent and type of mitigation required, the Director may consider all the following: CRITICALAREAS e. f. ll, J Downloaded from https://ecode360.com/Kl6857 on 2025 -05 -15
