Regulations Pro;ect Approval R equirements. Prior to issuing a permit, exemption, or other approval for a proposed project in a shoreline area, the County shall determine whether or not a cultural resources review or archaeological survey shall be required under this Section 5.l{B){l). a . Exception s . No cultural resources rev iew or survey shall be required under this Section 5 .l(B)(l) where the project applicant can demonstrate one or more of the following conditions is met: 1. The project or use does not include any ground disturbance. Projects that require the insertion of structural elements, but which do not require any excavation and create no spoil piles, shall be considered non-ground-disturbing for purposes of this Section (e .g. driving T-posts, planting tree seedlings with a hoedad). 11. The project is limited to the installation of infrastructure entirely within the same area as an existing project or development. m. The project's entire three-dimensional area of proposed ground-disturbance is located within previous fill or previously disturbed earth. 1v . A professional archaeologist has surveyed the entire project area within the last ten (l 0) years, and the survey report(s) show that no cultural, archaeological, or historic resources were found. b .

For shoreline projects that fall under a shoreline exemption permit and have no notification requirement, if not already completed through the Preliminary Site Analysis process, the above notification and cultural resources review requirements will occur prior to the issuance of an exemption permit. c. Archaeological Survey Requirement. A final archeological survey report for the entire project area shall be required prior to the County 's issuance of a permit. exemption, or other approval where the proposed project is not excepted under Section 5.l(B)(l)(a) above, and one or more of the following conditions exist: 1. The project area is located within one quarter (l /4) mile from either a protected Native American pre-contact site recorded with DAHP, or a protected historic site that is listed or eligible, or potentially eligible and unevaluated, in the DAHP inventory. 11. DAHP or an affected Native American tribe timely comments through the above cultural resources review process (or concurrent permitting or environmental review process, if applicable), and requests an archaeological survey be completed due to the presence of one or more of the following risk- factors : 111. IV. • Documented historic feature(s) on the property or located within one quarter (l /4) mile from the project area; • Previous positive archaeological survey results from a survey on the property or within one quarter (l /4) mile from the project area; or • A tribally-recorded site located within one quarter (l /4) mile of the project area. DAHP and an affected Native American tribe timely comment through the above cultural resources review process (or concurrent permitting or environmental review process, if applicable), and both DAHP and the affected Native American tribe request that an archaeological survey be completed due to a professional archaeologist's determination that the project area is in an area that is at high-risk for the presence of archaeological resources (e.g. in an area with high-risk soil deposit types such as historic high-energy soil deposits, or soils with multiple depositional contexts).
