Dear Property Owners,
In the past few months questions have risen concerning on-street
parking in the above referenced subdivisions with inquiries to
the Public Works Department to clarify this issue. After
extensively reviewing the existing roadway conditions in these
subdivisions, the City has reached the following conclusions,
* Road widths of twenty four feet (24'-on) do not allow
sufficient width for two driving lanes of twelve feet (12'-on)
each and on-street parking.
* The narrow road widths will not allow for the passage
of emergency vehicles such as ambulances or fire trucks if
vehicles are parked on the road.
* The intent at plat approval of allowing
road widths in these residential subdivisions was
sufficient off-street parking would be provided at
individual lot.
the narrow
that
each
* Subdivisions without curbs, which have swales, rely
upon these swales to provide stormwater runoff treatment as a
part of the drainage requirements for each site It has been
reported that severe damage to these swales is resulting from
vehicles using the swales for parking. Please do not park in the
swales
* The City of Yelm will monitor these residential
subdivisions and respond to complaints.

In the interest of safety as well as the protection of the
drainage swales, the City of Yelm is requesting that there be no
on-street parking in the above listed residential subdivisions.
Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

INTRODUCTION
ThIs report is a re-evaluation of wetland conditions found on the
PrairIe Creek Development, SectIon 19, T17N, R2E, U.M.; Yelm, UA.
A prevIous wetland delineation was made for this property and
accepted by the CIty of Yelm PlannIng Department. Subsequent work
in the area has revealed additional informatIon about the soils
and hydrology on the property. This report documents this
additional soil/hydrology data as a supplement to previous work
done by The Coot Company, and within the context of requirements
presented in the Federal Manual for Identifying and Delineating
Jurisdictional Wetlands (Federal Manual). The plant community
and the wetland classification will be accepted as presented in
The Coot Company report (Coot)
REVIEW OF PREVIOUS PRAIRIE CREEK TECHNICAL REPORTS
1. The Coot Company submitted a wetland report in May, 1992 This
report has followed an expedient procedure to make a wetland
delineation. Here are several quotes from this report.
"WETLAND DELINEATION - The stream bank edge is a distinct top
of bank boundary. The emergent floodplain wetland, however,
has technically difficult conditions. DetaIled soIl, water
and plant measurements could be necessary to determine a
precise, legal wetland boundary here as delineated under 1989
Triple ParametGr Methodology. However, a distinct plant
community edge exists on site that probably represents 1991
conditions of flooded and/or saturated ground (App. III
photographs). This obvious plant edge could serve as an
assumed technical Triple Parameter Wetland boundary for
jurisdictional purposes and provide good to excellent wetland
identification. It is unlikely that technical delineation
could move the wetland edge further from the stream, but it
is possible that it could move closer (lack of hydric soils).
Avoiding the need for a more detailed wetland delineation
would save substantial time and significant expense."
(Coot, page 4).
"SOILS - Uell Drained Site - This entire site has
well-drained, non-hydric Spanaway gravelly sandy loam."
(Coot, page 2)
"HYDROLOGY - Well Drained Upland - Nearly all of this
property is well drained ground with no persistent surface
water. The south property wetland area contains the only
signifIcant ground or surface water conditions."
(Coot, page 2)
2 Jerome U. Morrissette & Associates Inc. - This report was
prepared for engineering plans for roadways, water systems,
sanitary sewers, and the stormwater system (Morrissette).
However, this report does document 6 profile descriptions and
does make evaluations about soil conditions on the Prairie Creek
Development area. The data of greatest interest are the soil
profile descriptions, soil test locations, and summary of
findings page. This report is well prepared and has reached these
conclusions.
a. They have confirmed the site to be in agreement with
Spanaway soil series as described in Soil Survey of Thurston
Co., Washington.
b. They found no evidence of seasonal watertables within the
subsoils or substratum mate~ials to depths of 84 inches at
each site. Note: soil pits 1 and 6 are located 30 feet from
the wetland boundary as marked by The Coot Company
3 Puget Land Consultants - This report documents the location of
the historic 100 year floodplain along Yelm Creek (Jennings). The
following summ~ry points are of value to this report.
a. Yelm C~eek does not react as many individuals expect
flooding to occur. It reacts slowly to seasonal rainfall
patterns with an slow rise and then fall of a local
watertable Therefore Yelm Creek is a rather mild mannered
stream. The more bizarre behavioral patterns of Yelm Creek
has been caused by construction practices: inadequate bridges,
elevated roadways, stream dikes, stream rechannelization, and
poor maintenance practices. Uithin the past 5 years, steps
have been taken to correct for these past inadequacies, and
stream behavior has returned to more normal conditions.
b. Soils in the development were confirmed to be of the
Spanaway series. McKenna soils were observed on the south
side of Yelm Creek ThIs is In agreement wIth the soil
mapping found in the Soil Survey of Thurston County,
Washington However, a surface soil texture change was
observed in one area and labeled as the flood phase of
Spanaway series soils. The flood phase of Spanaway soils was
similar in other respects to the Spanaway series, but with a
3 to 9 inch deposItion of silt loam surface materIals. This
deposit of silt rich materials is from past high flood
events.
c The historic 100 year floodplain is characterized at 330
feet were the stream enters PraIrie Creek Development. The
line then swings to the south (the waters drain toward the
lower elevation McKenna soil area) and then followed at about
the present channelized location of Yelm Creek However,
since the Creek dikes are in place, high level flood events
can entrap water outside the dike at about 329 feet. This 100
year floodplain approximately follows the wetland boundary as
delineated by The Coot Company.
SUPPLEMENTAL SOIL SAMPLING
In order to characterize the soil and hydrology more accurately,
addItional soil pits were dug. Three pits were dug by hand at
about 20 from the lower fence line, and at about 60 feet from
Yelm Creek. This distance was selected to maintain a distance
from known soil disturbances in dike construction along Yelm
Creek These pits were dug by hand to 40+ inches, and hand
augered to the maximum depth of 48 inches. Later, a machine dug
pit was excavated off the end of the lower cul-de-sac at
approximately the same location as Morrissette pit 'i. These pit
descriptions are Included In the AppendIx to this report, and
shown on the attached Prairie Creek Development Wetland Map.
ANALYSIS
Before getting into detailed analysis about wetland conditions
within Prairie Creek Development, it is necessary first to
consider wetland criteria as defined in the Federal Manual for
Identifying and Delineating Jurisdictional Wetlands (Federal
Manual) .
The Federal Manual clearly defines wetlands in Part II ,
Mandatory Technical Criteria for Wetland Identification, and is
quoted
"2 O. Wetlands possess three essential characteristics. (1)
hydrophytic vegetation, (2) hydric soils, and (3) wetland
hydrology, which is the driving force creating all
wetlands. These characteristics and their technical
criteria for identification purposes are described in the
following sections. The three technical criteria specified
are mandatory and must all be met for an area to be
identified as wetland. Therefore, areas that meet these
criteria are wetlands." (Federal Manual, page 5)
Good wetland delineators develop confidence In the use of the
three parameters approach when delineating wetlands. In the vast
majority of cases all three of these parameters are present
within a wetland. The Fedecal Manual does allow provisions for
disturbed area and problem area wetlands, where one or more of the
parameters may be missing However, in these cases, one can trace
to a good logical reason why a parameter is mIssing. This could
be the recent removal of the plant community, the deposition of
new topsoil on the area, or something of a simIlar nature. The
conditions along Yelm Creek clearly fall within relatively normal
conditions for wetland identification. The area has been in a
farm for a number of years, the soils are relatively undisturbed,
and the hydrology has been restored to near normal conditions.
Therefore, let us analyze conditions for each of the three wetland
parameters starting with soils, proceed to hydrology, and finish
with the plant community.
1. Soi Is
Section 2.6 and 2.7 of the Federal Manual defines Hydric Soils
and the Hydric Soil Criterion (Federal Manual, page 6) The
spirit of the hydcic soil concept is that in the average raInfall
year, unIque solI condItions occur durIng the growing season
where plants are subject to anaerobic (oxygen deficient)
conditions Anaerobic soil conditions forces soil formation down
different avenues. Soil colors and patterns change, and organic
surface soil develop. Where anaerobic conditions are pronounced,
soil chemistry is drastically altered, and you would swear you
were in a sewer pipe instead of a soil pit. These anaerobic
conditions force vegetation to adapt to these unique conditions.
In all there have been 10 soil profile descriptions taken on the
Prairie Creek Development, as well as the general soil mapping
provided by the Soil Survey of Thurston County, Washington. Six
of these profIles are document in the Morrissette & Associates
report. The final four soil profiles are attached in the AppendIx
to this report. All of this soil information is in close
agreement. The entire upland portion Prairie Creek Development
has soils of the Spanaway soil series. The soil mapping shows a
break between the Span away soil and the poorly drained McKenna
soil along the north boundary of Yelm Creek. Morrissette's report
states that all 6 soil profiles to be off the Spanaway solI
series and well drained with good aeration to depths of 84
inches. The Morrissette report makes the poInt pits 1 & 6 are 30
feet from the wetland limit. This Is an important point which
will be analyzed later. To get a more accurate characterization
of soil conditions adjacent to Yelm Creek, the 3 hand dug pits
were descrIbed at a distance of about 60 feet from the creek. At
this distance from Yelm Creek, the soil profIles still are
comparable to the Spanaway soil series. The soils lack indicators
of any extended periods of poor aeration (an anaerobic condition
were oxygen is deficient) to depths in excess of 4 feet. Spanaway
series soils are not on the hydric soIls lists and are considered
decidedly non-hydric in character Except at distances within 60
feet of Yelm Creek, the conditions encountered in the field do
not meet the hydric soils definition, nor the Hydric soil
Criterion, as stated in the Federal Manual.
2. Hydrology
Sections 2.8 and 2.9 of the Federal Manual defines Wetland
Hydrology and the Wetland Hydrology Criterion (Federal Manual,
page 7). The spirit of these statements is that water is found at
or above the soil surface for an extended period at least
seasonally during an average rainfall year. This water can come
be from a variety of sources: raInfall, floodIng, tIdes,
watertable rise, etc , however, the water must be to the surface.
Imagine walking across the wetland during the optimum time for
evaluation. One's boots must splash or ooze water to properly
meet the wetland hydrology criterion.
However, It is the exception rather than the rule that a wetland
delineator can directly observe optimal hydrological expression.
Therefore other evidence must be evaluated. Things like water
lines, downed vegetation, stains, rooting pattern, soil colors,
vegetation change, etc.; or more direct information like
watertable depth and some feel for the seasonal range of
watertable flux The observations within Prairie Creek
Development are that wetland hydrologic conditions occur only
infrequently, except in an area very close to Yelm Creek. There
is a vegetation change, but soils colors are lacking, and a wide
pattern of downed vegetation does not typically occur. The best
data in support of thIs statement comes from an analysis of
existing watertable conditions.
The Morrissette report makes specIfic mention of a lack of any
watertable, or evIdence of a watertable, in all six soil profile
sites, to a depth of 84 inches. This work was done on November 16,
1992. The Yelm City Engineer Department asked for more definitive
information about the depth to a watertable within the lower
portion of planned development activity. This was a wise request
and generated useful information. In a location very close to the
original Morrissette pit 11, a pit was excavated and described to
a depth of 12.3 inches. This work was done on January 28, 1994. On
this date the watertable was encountered at 117 inches.
Additionally, the soil pit was closely inspected for evidence of
maximum rise of a seasonal watertable. Thick deposits of clay
we~e observed In the C3 horIzon (between 96 and 117 inches), and
these same clay particles were observed in suspension below 117
inches. This gives evidence for both the presence and the upper
range of a common and seasonal watertable. An associated
consideration would be the relative position of the watertable on
January 28. One would expect, on thIs date of the year, for the
watertable to be nearer to its common high water mark. However, it
was confirmed by the Olympia Ueather Station that the total
monthly ~ainfall at Yelm was about half what it should be in the
10/1/93 to 1/28/94 period. Therefore one should expect local
watertables to be somewhat lower than normal. The difference,
at this pit site is about 117 inches - 96 Inches, or 21 inches.
Now consider some simple math and logic Morrissette's pit 11 is
located 30 feet from The Coot Company's flagged wetland boundary
on a very gentle sloping terrace. The common high watertable at
this pit site is 96 inches (8 feet) below the surface. However,
at 30 feet away there is suppose to be a wetland, which if true,
requires a watertable to be within 1 foot of the surface (Federal
Manual, page 7, 2.9.C). Therefore, there must be a gradient to
the watertable which must drop 7 feet in 30 feet horizontal
distance, in highly permeable soils, with no significant change
in soil materials. This is a highly improbable scenario. The
wetland boundary must be closer to Yelm Creek.
The three hand dug pits were described in a area about 60 feet
from Yelm Creek. Pit #2 described in the Appendix A is the most
representative of the pits This pit was dug on January 14, 1994.
One should note this site receives occasional flooding as
evidenced by the silt loam surface soil Ho~ever, there were no
evidence of a watertable on this date, nor were there signs of
the upper limits of a common seasonally high watertable within 48
inches. It was not practical to hand dig to greater depths, but
based on intuition, one can sense the depth to a common seasonal
high water table would be withIn the 4-6 foot depth range, but
most certainly not within a foot of the surface for extended time
periods. One can assume there must be a wetland boundary between
these pits and Yelm Creek
3. Vegetation
Sections 2 1 and 2 3 of the Federal Manual defines Hydrophytic
Vegetation and the Hydrophytic Vegetation Criterion (Federal
Manual, pp 5-6). The spirit of the Hydrophytic Vegetation concept
is that higher plants are periodically subject to anaerobic soIl
conditions (deficient in oxygen) during the growing season; and
this steers the vegetative community toward a species composition
of plants that are more tolerate of these oxygen deficient
conditions.
As mentioned in the introduction, hydrophytlc vegetatIon
characterization and the wetland classification will be accepted
as described in The Coot Company report. However, there is a need
to discuss the vegetational parameter used in this wetland
delineation, and this relates to wetland delineation as presented
in this report. The Coot Company wetland line does make a
delineation based on a noticeable vegetational change. Based Just
on the vegetation, The Coot Company delineation would appear to
be acceptable. However, let us consider the vegetation parameter
in more detail.
The Coot Co. report lists the following plant species as within
the wetland community (Coot, page 5).

This author has added information to the Unknown Graminae sPP. in
parentheses All of the above species were observed in the area
from the northern bank of Yelm Creek to the northern limit of The
Coot Co. wetland delineation. tJhile the exact identity of the
upland pasture grass is very dIfficult to determIne (complex
taxonomic keys and poor plant condition), the fIeld relationship
of this upland pasture grass to the reed canarygrass is
technically important. This will be discussed later
The sum of the species present gives a mixed reading about the
plant community at this site. Following the routine plant
community assessment procedure, as outlined in the Federal
Manual, the dominant vegetation species (upland pasture grass,
curly dock, and common velvet grass) does indicate that the
hydrophytic vegetatIon criterIon is met (Federal Manual, pages
31, 33-35). This determination Is accepted in this report.
However, none of the species listed have indicator status as an
obligate wetland species, and one species, Garry oak, is an
upland species (Reed). The sum consideration of this vegetation
community, both in the field and within summary data, does not
make a strong case that a wetland is present. Routine plant
community assessment procedures require addition steps to
consider the hydric soiJ and wetland hydrology criteria. That is
what this report has done in supplement to The Coot Co. report
Uhen the soil and hydrology are plugged into the picture, then
much of the area previously delineated as wetland fails to meet
the 3 parameter wetland criteria. Much of what has been
previously delineation as a wetland is simply a moist, but well
aerated sjte that is favorable for a wide variety of plant
species
NEU UETLAND DELINEATION
This report has gone into a fair amount of detail to document
that the wetland previously delineated by The Coot Company, and
accepted by the CIty of Yelm, does not in fact meet wetland
criteria as outlined in the Federal Manual. The next question
should be: is there a wetJand at all, and is so where is the
boundary? The answer to that question is yes, there is a wetland
in the area, and the attached Prairie Creek Development Uetland
Map indicates a new and surveyed wetland delineation. Some
explanation of the general procedure used is in order.
Initial analysis of the data demonstrates a conflict in the data
sources. The National Uetlands Inventory Map (NWIM) and The Coot
Co report state for a wetland well into the Prairie Creek
Development area. The Soil Survey for Thurston County, Uashington
(SCS), and the engineering report by Jerome Morrissette and
Associates indicates the wetland boundary should be much closer
to Yelm Creek. The 100 year flood report produced by Puget Land
Consultants surfaced additional data more in support of a
location closer to Yelm Creek (JennIngs). When Puget Land
Consultants was asked to reconsider the wetland delineation, it
was obvious that hard data was needed about the soIls and
hydrology in the area. This data was acquired and is presented in
Appendix A and B of this report.
The rationale is discussed earljer in this report to show that a
three parameter wetland boundary must be closer than 60 feet to
Yelm Creek. However, on the south sIde of Yelm Cr.eek there is a
conspicuous wetland, and this wetland area would be in agreement
with The National Uetland Inventory Map, the Sojl Survey of
Thurston County, Uashington, and the minds of most local
residents. Therefore, a new wetland delineation was searched for.
in a 60 foot wide strip immediately to the north of Yelm Creek.
The task to find evidence to support a new wetland delineatjon in
this 60 foot strip of land was not difficult to find. The initial
evidence was based upon the general relationship between the
upland pasture grass species, and reed canarygrass Within the
Prairie Creek Development, these two grasses are found in three
relatIonships. In one area, across the broad upland area of the
development, the upland pasture grass is in strong dominance
(90+%). However, as one moves closer to Yelm Creek, a second
relationship area is encountered where both grass species are
present in roughly equal amounts. Very close to Yelm Creek, the
relationship reverses where the reed canarygrass is in strong
dominance (90+%).
A preliminary wetland line was initially flagged based upon the
line where reed canarygrass came into strong dominance. This line
ran nearly parallel with Yelm Creek, but then swung toward and
met Yelm Creek. Interior to this line, there was downed
vegetation from surficial waters in support of wetland hydrology,
and thp.re was surface layer organic matter buildup in support of
hyd~ic soil conditions. However, the swing to Yelm Creek was not
antIcipated, and this requIred additional consideratIon of
wetland conditions. Three things were observed that support this
delineation line to be correct. This new proposed wetland
boundary seems to: (a) line-up with similar vegetatIon changes on
the south side of Yelm Cr~ek, (b) meet Yelm Creek at a point were
there is significant break in the stream gradient; and (c) help
explain why there is a clump of large Garry oak trees growing in
what had previously been designated as a wetland. On point "c"
the Garry oak would now be designated as growing outside the
wetland area under moist and aerobic (ample oxygen) conditions.
This explains why these unusually large specimens of Garry oak
are found at this locatIon.
The new wetland delineation does have strong field indIcators In
support of this proposed location. Therefore stakes were set for
a survey. This proposed new wetland delineation was surveyed and
is as shown in the attached Prairie Creek Yetland Map. It is
recommended the City of Yelm accept this new wetland delineation
based upon the rationale presented in this report and in line
with the spirit of procedures and criteria as presented in the
Federal Manual.

INTRODUCTION
This report has purpose to document the historic and current 100
year floodplain along Yelm Creek with Section 19, T17M, R2E,
U.M., and is prepared for the proposed Prairie Creek Subdivision.
The information used to generate this report is from a varIety
of sources including direct field observations of soils, survey
elevations, aerial photograph Interpretations, inspection of
waterlines on bridges, reference to work of previous engineering
and envIronmental science reports, reference to topographic maps,
weuther records, FEMA maps, well logs, soil surveys, and lastly
interviews with local residents. This required the synthesis of
information to bear upon the question. where Is the 100 year
floodplain"?
YEI.1'1 CREEK CHARACTERIZATION
Bcfore divIng into the main points of this report, it first is
necessary to understand the Yelm Creek soil landscape and the
hydrology of the area. Yelm Creek forms in an area dominanted by
glacial soil materials. These glacial soil materials were
deposited durIng that last major glaciation which culminated
about 14,000 years ago. The landscape since that timc has had
relatively minor modifIcations. Streamcourse development is
poorly expressed. Yelm Creek itself is an intermittent stream
through certain stretches and has minor flow contributions from
tributaries.
It is important to understand how water is moving through the
Yelm Creek system. This ties strongly to the nature of the
glacial soil materials withIn its drainage. Soils in the Yelm
Creek drainage were composed originally of either glacial till or
g]aclal outwash The glacial till materials were deposited
directly underncath the presence of a glacier. Present soil
materials that formed from these glacial till materials still
have the hardpan layer created from the weight of the glacier at
2--3 feet below the surface. The glacial outwash materials formed
.from thewat,ers 'that mel'ted a.way from the gla.cier. For a short
pcriod of time active streams laced across the landscape as the
glaciers melted away. This reworked soil materials createed flat
plains and layered soil materials. When the glaciers melted away
stream flows declined to approximately present levels Since then
some deposition and accumulation of fIne sediments and organic
matter has occurred at low spots in the landscape.
There are associated points connected to this general discussion
of glacial materials. Most important to understanding the
hydrology of the area, is that glacial till hardpan underlies
this whole area. Credible well logs indicate the depth to the
hardpan ranges from 7 feet to 30 feet below the surface. This
hardpan layer is very restrictive to water and can create a water
table above it. At the surface, rainfall infiltrates the soil
with no significant runoff. If significant runoff was occurring,
there would be more stream channels in the area. Instead, waters
Infiltrate into and permeate through the soil. Soil materials
ratain a portion of these waters, but the excess pass through
until the hardpan is encountered. At this point a watertable
builds that moves toward a low point in the landscape. The low
point in the landscape for drainage of the watertable is Yelm
Creek, when the watertable is expressed above the surface.
it is an important point to realize that floods in Yelm Creek do
not occur from a quick gathering of runoff waters following large
storms. Floods occur by slow buildup of the watertable and
release into Yelm Creek following seasonal rainfall patterns.
Uhat effects Yelm Creek is heavy winter season rainfall, roughly
in the period between November 1 and May 31. In colloquial terms,
Yelm Creek is a mellow streamcourse. It rises slowly and retreats
slowly, and is not harshly effected by heavy rainstorms.
HISTORIC HIGH LEVEL fLOODPLAIN
Tha proposed Prairie Creek Subdivision has prompted the analysis
of high level flood events: what is commonly called 100 year
flood avents. This requires our discussion to focus on flood
conditions that can occur along Yelm Creek, roughly within
Section 19, T17N, R2E, and specifically within Lots 9 and 10,
Block 36 of Plat of McKenna Irrigation Tracts, the subject
property. The common procedure is to refer to maps generated by
FEMA that depicts the 100 yaar flood 1 evels. Th'e--j-El'IA__'f.:lood=p1-:ai1i\

~t'he-sou=th-=_-&c!-~~. The Coot Company has conducted a wetland
inventory of the Prairie Creek Subdivision. However, this report
lacks definitive information about soils and hydrology and is
based on plant community classifications only. This report makes
a statement that the soils over the entire area are non-hydric
and the area is well drained. This drainage portion of this
assessment is not accurate. Jerome U Morrissette & Associates,
an engineering firm, described the soils in detail for
engineering considerations for design of roadways, storm drainage
and utility construction. The solIs information in this report is
quite good, but no samples were collected adjacent to Yelm Creak.
However, the Morrissette report confirmed the presence of
Spanaway soils across the entire upland area of this property,
and allowed the expedience of surface soil sampling, with
confidence, for this report.
Ino'rder to a make valid depiction of where the high level
floodplain should be, a different procedure was needed. instead
of a fEMA map, alternative evidence was sought that would bear
upon where a high floodplain would be through the proposed Praire
Craek Subdivision. The evidences used are from a variety of
sources. in the remainder of this report the rationale usad for
acceptance of information will be presented within the discussion.
1. Soil l'1apping
Direct field evidence in support of historic high floodplaIn
levels is available from an analysis of soil classification and
properties. First one must consider the generalized soil
classification for the subject area. The Soil Survey of Thurston
County, Washington, soil mapping sheet number 25, has surveyed
only two soil series through the entire length of felm Creek
within Section 19, T17N, R2E. This would be mapping units 110,
112, 113 (slope and stony phases of Spanaway series), and mapping
unit 64 (McKenna series). Spanaway series are found on the
uplahd~ bn both sIdes of Yelm Creek. These Spanaway soils
typically have black gravelly or very gravelly sandy loam surface
soils (0-15 inches), dark yellowish brown very gravelly sandy
loam subsoils (1~-20 inches), and a dark yellowish brown
extremely gravelly sand substratum below 20 inches. The McKenn~
soils are mapped in one long narrow mapping delineation along the
south side of Yelm Creek. McKenna soils have black gravelly silt
loam or silt loam surface soils (0-9 inches); very dark grayish
brown to dark brown, and mottled, very gravelly silt loam and
loam subsoils (9-36 inches); and a dense glacial till substratum
below 36 inches. I found soil conditions along Yelm Creek to be
adequately represented by this generalized mapping scheme.
However, onsite analysis brings forth greater detail about local
soil conditions and is presented below.
2. Flood Phase, Spanaway Soil
Onsite in~pection of the surface soils on the north side of Yelm
reveals subtle but inportant evidence about the character of the
flooding along Yelm Creek. A traverse upstream through the
subject property, approximately 50 feet north of the present
stream channel, reveals two distinct conditions within the
Spanaway soi ls ar ea. t:11e--t-yp-r-ca-j:-Cb-nd-i t Io_ii' wner-e -ver-y gravel Y,y:

@anay~r6am-~oil.0These silt loam surface materials are post
glaci'alin oi-Tgin and vary between 3 and 9 inches in depth. Thes e
thin fine sediments over Spanaway soil materials are very similar
to those ['ound at the surface in the McKenna series. I call this
area the flood phase of the Spanaway series.
3. Historic High Floodplain Delineation
The historic high level floodplain can be determined with
relative accuracy from a field delineation o[ the [lood phase of
Spanawaysoils, tonal patterns on aerial photographs, survey
elevations, and some logic Delineation of the flood phase of
Spanaway soils was done using a sharpshooter shovel as a probe.
The test: where does the surface solI texture change from very
gra.velly sandy loam to silt loam? ,The difference in soil textur,e'
~.s: easil'y d-eTect-ed by feel during penetrttion wi th the shove'l. U
F:T,agging_ was - hung to - del ineat e the bounda:r-y and then- surveyed.
This line crosses the easterly boundary of the subject property
at about 330 feet elevation in a westerly direction, but then/
swings to the south toward Yelm Creek and connects with the
McKenna soil mapping area. Aerial photographs were acquired after
this line was delineated. Tonal patterns on the aerial photos
closely match this flood phase delIneation of Spanaway soils. It
is apparent from an analysIs of aerial photographs, that
hi~torically water {low down Yelm Creek was not in its current
channel, but turned to the south and followed the steepest
gradient toward the McKenna soil area: a depression in the
landscape.
For the remainder of the subject property, the historic high
floodplain was judged based upon a little different procedure.
Elevations were surveyed at matched points about 50 feet on each
side of Yelm Creek. The elevations on the north side were
approximately 329 feet, while the elevations on the south side
were a foot lower at 328 feet (Note: this represents the
elevation gradient that swung the historic Yelm Creek channel to
the south as previously discussed.) The soils on the south side
had greater than 12 inches of silt loam surface materials, while
soils on the north side had very gravelly sandy loam surface
materials. Along this stretch o{ Yelm Creek, this evidence
indicates that historically there was rarely if ever flooding to
the 329 feet elevation, while there was common flooding to the
328 feet elevation. Additionally, numerous water lines on the 1st
St. concrete bridge mark common high water levels (high water
marks achieved 5 out of 10 years) at about 328 feet One can
logically deduct that the historic high water floodplain would be
between these two elevations at approximately the current Yelm
Creek channel location.
MAN COMES INTO THE PICTURE - CURRENT HIGH FLOODPLAIN LEVELS
The word "historically" has been inserted into the above
di~criptions because within recent times (the last 100 years)
flood levels have changed. The depressional area that contains
the McKenna soils extended west of current Burlington Northern
railroad crossing. This area seasonally contained surface waters
during most winters. However, this ponded area was dissected by
an elevated railroad and an elevated roadway. Yelm Creek was
moved to the north and channelized to it present location. Small
dams w'ere constructed by local residents. Flood conditions became
quite bad for awhile along Yelm Creek. Uithin the last 10 years
efforts have been made to restore Yelm Creek by improving the
roadway bridge crossing, removal of dams, and cleanout of Yelm
Creek channel. The consistent testimony of local residents is
that Yelm Creek is now much better behaved than it use to be.
Outlined below are some important points to consider to determine
the current high floodplain situation.
1. Pre-road, Current Road Comparison
Before man's developments in this area, high floodplain levels
were controlled by natural landscape features. The release
mechanism for surface waters had horizonal distance, vertical
distance, and stream velocity as variables. However, since
con~truction of an elevated railroad and roadway (1st. St.), the
horlzonal distance variable approaches the value of a constant.
This is critically important at the roadway stream crossing A
calculation of water flow, under assumed conditions, will
demonstrate this difference. Two conditions will be analyzed. the
passage of water past this point without the elevated roadway
(simulates the historic water passage), and the new roadway with
the current cement bridge. The full calculations are found in
Appendix A. Table A below presents a summary of calculated data.

Tuble A demonstrates several important points. As a starting
point, compare the cross sectional areas available to move waters
before and after construction of the roadway during common winter
highs and during high flood levels Before the roadway these
cross sectional areas were approximately 220 sq. ft (at
elevation 328 ft.) and 480 sq. ft. (at elevation 329 ft.) This
represents a net lncrease of 160 sq. ft. available during high
flood periods. After construction of the elevated roadway, these
cross sectional areas are 40 sq. ft. and 80 sq ft. respectively,
with a net increse of only 40 sq. ft. available during high flood
period~. Note, however, that these calculated values are made
under somewhat dIfferent conditions to make this comparison
realistIc. During high flood periods, after construction of the
'cur'r"ent concrete bridge, water can and does rise to higher
elevations, and will have higher flow velocities. Therefore,
after roadway/bridg~, the comparison is made between common
winter high water levels at elevation 328 ft. with the high flood
levels at ele'\(:ation 330 ft>. Lastly, the relative increase in flow
velocities is also compared
It should beno'ted tha't these calculated values are not
definitive in a strict sense. Values have been rounded for
convenience of calculations, and the comparison in flow
velocities must be considered a relative ratio only. However
these conditions do seem realistic to the evidences found in the
field and the testimony of local residents. Therefore, during
high lev~l flood periods similar to what occurred in 1989-90,
flood levels that historically would not have exceeded 329 feet,
now rise waters in front of the roadway to approximately 330 feet
1
o
elevation and must pass water through the concrete bridge release
path~ay at 6 times the velocity At 330 fe~t el~vation, high
flood waters passed 3-4 inches below the bottom of the concrete
bridge and backs up waters into the fields along 1st Street.
Iowever, the testimony of credible witnesses is that the waters
r~ceded toward felm Creek goina upstream and are not affecting
the 100 year fJoodplain consideration on the subject property. A
point to mention, based on the above discussion, is that the 1st.
Street brIdge design Is marginally adequate to pass high flood
level vaters.
2. The Old Road
Previous roadway conditions are reported by local individuals to
have been more severe than current conditions. Aerial photographs
demonstrate that the road has been straightened and relocated to
the cast sometime between 1966 and 1992. The current concrete
bridge is believed to have been constructed in 1987. Before this
bridge construction, the roadway had a double culvert rel~ase
system vith an unknown, but much lower capacity than the current
concrete bridge. Local individuals testify that they have seen
water backup and run across the 1st. Street roadvay Before the
concret~ bridge construction, inadequate release capacity could
make 1st Street could act like a dam. High water at this time
may have reached the 331 foot lev~l before being released across
the roadbed. This would have forced waters near structures along
Railroad Road and high into fields on the north side of felm
Creek. This type of flooding undoubtably did occur in the past.
However, it is important to r~alize this is not a high
floodplain. lt is simply the backup of waters from an inadequate
road design, and has sinc~ been partially corrected.
3. Yelm Creek Channelization and The Dikes
Yelm Creek was channelized sometime previous to 1966 for field
irrigation. Between 1966 and 1992, land use changed from dominant
agricultural usage to mixed agriculural and urban usage. As
agricultural use for this area deteriorated, the maintenance of
the Yelm Creek chann~l also deteriorated. This has effected the
water release rates. Yhen Yelm Creek channel is kept clean,
waters release quicker inside the dikes of the current channel
No~ consider that the surveyed elevation of the north dike holds
very close to 330.5 feet from the ~ast boundary of the subject
property to several hundred{feet beyond the west boundary. With
relatively unobstructed fl;~, even high flood vaters ~Ill pass
inside the dikes until the dikes lower near the 1st. Street
bridge. At this location, waters can back around to the outside
of the dikes. However, ~he overall effect of this quicker flow is
to pass waters through the system faster during lover flows, and
this lessens the peak of the high water mark.
Hovever, the felm Creek channel fills with vegetative grovth and
sediment. It must be periodically cleaned to maintain adequate
flow rates. ~hen clogged, Yelm Creek will backup waters in the
area before reaching the elevated dikes. This forces ~aters
outside the dik~s. On the north side of the dikes and on tho
subjec~ property, ~his alters how high flood waters move through
the system. Uaters that historically would have flowed back
toward the McKenna soil area to the south are now blocked outside
the dike. These waters are forced to flow parallel to Yelm Creek
into unsaturated surface soil areas. Here waters infiltrate into
the soil and the water width narrows downstream. This theoretical
analysis is in agreement with the testimony of witnesses who
observed these water conditions during high flood conditions
prior to 1990.
4. The 100 Year Floodplain
Throughout the discussion above, ~he term "high floodplain" has
been used and should be taken to mean infrequent flooding which
occurs at intervals of once every 100 years or greater. A little
math \Jill help to demonstrate the time factor. !:1j.1,g:h-=oI~t-he-1Q,gic

However, for ~he remainder of the subject property, surface water
flows were blocked to the south by the north dike So where do
these \Jaters go? Before the 1990 cleanout of Yelm Creek channel,
The testimony of witnesses indicates high floodplain waters
exited the subject property, across the westerly boundary, at
about 329 feet elevation. This would agree with how waters should
theoretically react under these field conditions The 329 foot
elevation line in this area approaches toward the fine sediment
line and makes a smooth connection for the 100 year floodplain
delineation. The fine sediment line and the 329 feet elevation
have been surveyed in the field to estimate the 100 year
f loodpL~in.
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
The 10ca~Ion of any 100 year floodplains within a proposed
development is required for permit approvals. The fEMA maps
customarily us~d to ~stimate this 100 year floodplain line are
clearly in error within the proposed Prairie Creek Subdivision
area. This is obvious to anyone who will take the time to analyze
field conditions. The City of Yelm regulatory officials recoginze
this fact. Clearly an alternative and definitive procedure is
required in this situation. This report does depict the historic
and current 100 year floodplains on Aerial Photograph A. More
importantly, this report documents historic, past and current
conditions in some detail to help reviewers make an informed
dccision about the current 100 year floodplain.
Soils in thc study area are classified as within the Spanaway and
McKcnna series McKenna soils are located in a long narrow,
poorly drained depressional area just south of the present Yelm
Creek cha:nnel.Thcse 'McKenna soils have a silt loam surface soil
grcater than 12 inches deep, gravelly silt loam at greater
depths, and a till substratum below 36 inches. Spanaway soils are
found on the uplands on both sides of Yelm Creek and a large area
well outside the project area. In this area Spanaway soils have
black very gravelly sandy loam surface soils, dark brown very
gravelly sandy loam subsoils, and a very gravelly sand substratum
bclow 2U inches. A glacial till layer is found beneath this whole
area at depths between 3 and 30 feet. The presence of this till
layer creates a watertable above it and determines the hydrology
for the Yclm Creek drainage system. It is important to understand
that Yelm Creek flows when the watertable reaches the surface. It
is not a stream that reacts to runoff waters following intense
storm events. In colloquial terms, Yelm Creek is a mellow strcam.
The historic high floodplain can be traced in thc field by the
presence of 3 to 9 inch layer of silt loam deposited over
Spanaway vcry gravelly sandy loam. A sharpshooter shovel was used
to determine this line in the field This line was compared with
dark tonal line found on aerial photographs of the area. The two
lines are in very close agreement. This historic high floodplain
is marked on Aerial Photograph A as a dashed black line.
Uithin the last 100 years or so, construction activities have
included an elcvated railroad, elevated roadway (1st. St.),
rechannelization of Yelm Creek, unapproved damn constructions,
rcconstruction of the roadway, dike constructions, and channel
cleanouts of Yelm Creek. These construction actIvities have had a
significant affect on flooding along Yelm Creek through the
subject property. The 1st. St. roadway with the old double
culvert relcase mechanism, was woefully inadequate, forcing
waters to release over the roadway during some high floods.
During these times, waters would back up near structures on
Railroad Road and covered large areas within the agricultural
fields. Thcse were the worst of times for Yelm Creek area
residents Uithin the last 10 years restoration activities have
taken place to correct many of the problems associated with
inadequate drainage provisions for Yelm Creek. Most important are
the removal of dams, the new concrete bridge (1986 or 1987), and
the 1990 channel cleanout. Individuals consistently testify that
conditions now are decidedly better than in the past.
This summary Ls a whirl~ind brief of the more important points
brought up in the main body of this report. It is a fair
statement to say that current high floodplains are dependent on
the current roadway structures along 1st. Street and the
maintenance of adcquate drainage provisions within Yelm Creek. If
the channel is cleaned of vegetation and maintained at the proper
depth, high strcam {lows will stay within the current dikes that
retain Yelm Creek. However, if the Yelm Creek channel becomes
clogged, then flooding can occur outsIde the dikes. The high
floodplain under these conditions is shown on Aerial Photograph A
as a series of black dots.
In conclusjon I would state the 100 year floodplain, even under
adverse conditions, falls within the zone designated as the
wetland area in P~airie Creek plat submittals. In addition 1
would make the following recommendations to assure that adverse
flooding conditions do no reoccur along Yelm Creek.
1. The
bridge
future
durines
City of Yelm should consider widening the 1st. Street
to twice its present release capacity some ~ime in the
It presently seems marginally adequate to pass waters
high water events.
2. Yelm Cre~k should be placed on a periodic cleanout schedule,
at about 5 year intervals, to insure faster release rates of
waters durjng high water periods
3. To establish future performance, and to cover contingencies,
it may be prudent {or the land owners near Yelm Creek and the
City of Yelm to create a vested interest agreement for the proper
management of Yelm Creek drainage.
ff I may be of any further assistance in the establishment of the
100 year floodplain for the Prairie Creek Subdivision, or for any
other associated matters connected to the Yelm Creek, please fecI

Re. PrelImmary plat of PraIne Creek
Plat map showmg a two phase approach receIved September 9, 1993
TP #227-19 (643036009/010/01001)
Dear Mr Maibauer
We have receIved and revIewed the plat map showmg a two phased approach to developmg the
prelImmary plat of PraIne Creek. While the maps begm to address a phased approach for the
subdIvIsIon, we are unable to forward comments regardmg prelImmary plat approval to the City
of Yelm
Dunng a telephone conversatlOn WIth the CIty of Yelm yesterday, It became apparent that they
are currently revIewmg a smgle phase, 64 lot subdIvISIOn based ennrely on the use of the future
sewer system. As requested m my August 31, 1993 letter, copIes of the reVIsed plat map
showmg a phased subdIvISIon should be submItted to Yelm for theIr reVIew. ThIS IS necessary
so that Thurston County and the CIty of Yelm are revIewmg the same proJect.
To proceed WIth this project, we suggest that you submIt revised plat maps showing the phased
approach to Thurston County and the CIty of Yelm for reVIew Verb age needs to be added to
the maps statmg that:
1) phase one will utIlIze onsIte sewage dISpOSal and will conSIst of 20 lots on 20
acres, and
2) phase two (the remaimng 44 lots) will utIlIze the sewer system and Will not be
recorded WIth the Thurston County AudItor's office until the sewer becomes
available
As stated m your letter of August 23, 1993, some lot dimenSIOns have changed The lot Size
IdentIfied In your prevIOus report as the mInImUm needed to fully contaIn all necessary facihties
has been decreased. In addItIon, the wetland buffer appears to further Impact some of the lots

RE.
Building Permits for Non-Septic Lots
The City of Yelm has been asked to issue building permits for construction on lots that
would not meet County septic requirements and therefore would require hook-up to
sewer. We have been asked the question whether the City should issue building
permits for those lots despite the fact that Yelm's sewage facility is not yet complete
and if the answer Is "yes" then at what point should the City begin Issuing building
permits.
This Issue here is the City's exposure to liability for Issuing a permit on a lot where,
If sewer Is for some reason unavailable, the lot would be unbuildable. In other words,
the CitY could be liable for creating an unbuildable lot.
There remains some doubt, albeit limited, that the sewage system will be completed
and fully operational The closer and closer we get to final completion and the more
permits are issued, the less risk there is to the City of Yelm for issuing building
permits At some point, the risk of exposure is outweighed by the need to move
forward with permits.
Sandy and I have discussed this matter and we have reached the conclusion that the
point at which the City can feel comfortable in Issuing building permits is upon the
occurrence of two events: (1) Contract No.3 is awarded, and (2) the appeal period
on the Shoreline Permit runs out Because the shoreline appeal period has already run,
the only remaining obstacle is the award and notice to proceed on Contract 3.
In addition, when the City does begin issuing building permits, it should Include a
condition In the building permit that sewer hook-up will not be allowed for that lot

occurrence of two events: (1) Contract No.3 is awarded, and (2) the appeal period
on the Shoreline Permit runs out. Because the shoreline appeal period has already run,
the only remaining obstacle Is the award and notice to proceed on Contract 3.
In addition, when the City does begin Issuing building permits, it should include a
condition In the building permit that sewer hook-up will not be allowed for that lot
until the treatment system Is fully operational. This is simply a final measure of
protection for the CitY.
Ther.efore, we recommend that the City only begin Issuing permits for non-septic lots
after Contract 3 on the sewage system is awarded and a notice to proceed Is Issued.
Additionally, the City should include as a condition of the building permit a condition
that sewer hook-up will not be made until the sewage treatment facility Is fully
operational.

Subject: Flood Plain identification for Prairie Creek
Subdivision
Dear Mr Deatherage,
The City of Yelm Ordinance No 353,sec 4 1-1 (flood control)
requires that authorization from the Planning Department shall be
obtained before construction or development begins
The options available for the information needed so that the Yelm
Planning Department can arrive at a decision are as follows:
1) An analysis done by an ARCPACS certified soil scientist
or flood plain expert This analysis shall include, at
the minimum, an on-site field investigation to be used
in conjunction with a detailed survey This
information must arrive at a base flood plain
elevation That is the area and elevation that a flood
has a 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any
given year ( the 100 yr flood plain) There are a
couple of ARCPACS certified firms in the Olympia area
2) A City staff designated floodplain elevation based on a
current survey, existing Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRM), and an on-site visit It is important to note
that FIRM designations are vague and may not represent
the true Base Flood Plain This City staff will assume
the most extreme scenario, and the proponent will be
billed for staff time
If there are further questions or more information is needed,
please contact Ty Peterson, City Planner at Yelm City Hall 458-
8408
Sincerely,
Ty Peterson

RE: PLAN REVIEW OF STEP SEWER DESIGN FOR PRAIRIE CREEK
SUBDIVISION
Dear Mark:
As per the city of Yelm's request, Parametrix, Inc. has reviewed
the proposed STEP collector pipeline for the Prairie Creek, 61 lot
subdivision, as designed by Sound Design Incorporated.
Kevin J. Dour of our Parametrix, Inc., Sumner office, has re-
viewed the collection design and modeled the hydraulics. Mr. Dour's
comments and recommendations are attached with sheets 10, 11 & 12
of the plans redlined.
Also, Parametrix, Inc. recommends the city to advise the designer
to secure the latest edition of the Technical Specifications and
incorporate as required.
If you have any questions or comments please call me at 458-8406
or 458-8410.

Re:
Review of the prairie Creek Subdivision STEP
System
I have the following comments after reviewing the plans and
analyzing the hydraulics of the proposed STEP collection lines for
the prairie Creek Subdivision:
1. Cleanouts should be located at the ends of all collection
lines. These should follow the construction details used by
the city for the collection mainlines. The detail submitted
appears to comply with the City'S standard cleanout for STEP
collection lines. ~
2. Additional gate valves should be located within the system as
marked on the submitted plans. All isolation valves should be

be adequate.
4. The 2" collection lines within the platted subdivision are
adequate. However, the line along Middle Road and Railway
Road leading to the Phase I Collection Mainline should be 6".
The 6" line is required in order to accommodate downstream
users within this collection basin. When modeling the
ultimate collection system during the design effort, it was
determined that a 6" line will be required along Middle Road
and Railway Road to accomodate all expected users within this
basin. What is required hydraulically by this subdivision
alone is a 3" line along Middle Road and Railway Road.

REI Approval of Prairie Creek Preliminary Plat
Dear Ms Petrich
The City of Yelm has approved a 64-lot preliminary plat with the proviso that 19 of
the lots within the plat may be developed on septic tank.
The developer has requested, and the City has approved the preliminary plat with the
19 lots being spaced throughout the subdivision with a plat covenant that, until such
time as sewer facilities are complete, the remaining lots may not be developed
Based upon the availability of 19 lots for septic tank, the remainder of the lots are
effectively open space until such time as sewer lines are complete
The developer is aware the City of Yelm is presently planning to provide sewers to the
area, but such sewers cannot be hooked up until all construction is complete and
finally approved for use In the meantime, the remaining lots on the plat are in effect
open space lots This is acceptable to the developer and to the City of Yelm You
have asked that the developer phase the subdivision so that all 19 lots are built
together It is neither the City's desire as the plat approval authority, nor the
developer's desire to develop as such phasing I do not understand it to be the Health
Department's prerogative under Chapter 58 17 RCW to advise the City of Yelm on the
sufficiency of the design and layout of the plat
The Health Department has advised the applicant that the prosecutor's office has
issued an opinion to the effect that the County Health Department cannot approve or
perc for the current plat.

RE: Preliminary Plat approval
Dear Leo:
In response to the February 24, 1993 City Council meeting decision regarding
the Prairie Creek Preliminary Plat. Motion by Council was to approve the
preliminary plat, subject to approval of the annexation and with the stub
road location to be determined after consultation with police, fire and city
staff representatives.
After discussion with the appropriate departments, the City of Yelm requests
that the stub road be moved to a location in the vicinity of lot #34 or #35.
As stated previously, this stub will need to be constructed to the same
street section as the loop street and at the same time.
All other conditions previously stated in my letter of February 19, 1993,
still apply and need to be incorporated into the preliminary drawings as
directed. Please contact me with any questions you may have. Once the
drawings are received that comply with this letter and the letter of 2-19-93,
the preliminary plat will be considered approved, subject to final annexation
by the City of Yelm, which will occur after Thurston County Boundary Review
Board approval.
Thank you for your patience.

Mr. Steve Davies
Thurston County Health Department
2000 Lakeridge Dr. S.W.
Olympia, WA 98502
SUBJECT: Approval of 20 Interim On-site SSAS's in prairie Creek
subdivision, Yelm, WA.
Dear. Mr. Davies:
The proposed preliminary plat of Prairie Creek subdivision (copy
enclosed) is a 20.2 acre parcel located at Middle Road and Railway
Road intersection northeast of Yelm, Washington. The legal
description of the property is Lots 9 and 10 in Block 36 of the
Plat of McKenna Irrigated Tracks as recorded in Volume 9 of Plats
at page 43, records of Thurston County, Washington. The proposed
plat is to divide the property into 64 lots with interior roads and
a wetland located adjacent to Yelm Creek on the southwest border of
the property.
The location of this plat is fortuitous because it is along the
initial leg of the new sewage collector line to be built for Yelm.
This line will run under Railway Road. The S.T.E.P. system from
the development will tie into the collector line at the Middle Road
intersection. This collector line is scheduled to be operational
by November 1993. All of the 64 lots except existing systems on
lots 6 and 10 will connect to the municipal collection system as
the~ develop.
The reason for this report is to obtain approval for the use of
interim on-site subsurface soil absorption systems (SSAS) until the
sewage collector line is operational. The developer is requesting
that 20 SSAS's be allowed on the 20.2 acre parcel for an interim
use until the sewage collector is available. These SSAS's will be
assigned to specific lots and only those lots will be developed
until the sewage collection system is available. These lots are:
4,15, 22,23, 31, 32,38,41,42,45,49,51, 53, 54,55, 56, 60,
61,62 (Lot numbers have been highlighted for easy reference). Lot
6 has an existing SSAS's and is included in the 20 SSAS's
requested. These lots were chosen for several reasons, which are:
. They represent most of the larger lots in the project;
. These lots are distributed throughout the project;
. These lots have adjacent vacant lots which could provide a
reserve SSAS location. Lots 39 and 59 would need two separate
easements to provide reserve areas for lots 54 and 55, and for
lots 60 and 61, respect i ve ly. All other proposed bui lding
lots have one or more vacant lots next to them which could be
used for a reserve area. However, on most lots with careful
planning there will be adequate space available to locate the
reserve area on the same lot.
The Thurston County Department of Environmental Health should be
agreeable to granting the proposed request for 20 SSAS's on the
proposed plat. The following discussion provides justification for
the approval without causing harm to the environment and degrading
the underlying ground water.
The proposed development will meet the intent of Article IV by only
developing a total of 20 lots on the 20.2 acres in the development
until the sewage collector system in operational. Lot 6 has an
existing home and SSAS. Lot 6 will connect to the Yelm public
water supply system when it becomes available. All lots in the
development will be served by the Yelm municipal water supply.
This housing density meets the requirements in Method I under
section 12.1.1 of Article IV at one residential unit per acre and
therefore should be approved.
Beyond meeting Method I for Minimum Land Area Requirements this
report addresses some of the additional factors described in Method
II. One factor to further protect the ground water aquifer and
provide additional waste water treatment is all of the SSAS's will
utilize sand lined drainfield trenches with pressure distribution
all in accordance with the Guidelines for Sand Filters. The soils
throughout this project are Spanaway soils. The top 24 to 34
inches are gravelly sandy loam. Below this is sand with cobbles
and stone (Type I). The pressure distribution piping and gravel
will be installed within the top loamy soil and the sand filter
will extend into the lower type I soil. There will be a minimum of
3 inches of vertical separation between the top of the type I soil
and the bottom of the drainfield gravel. This construction will
force the water down through the ASTM C-33 sand filter before
leaching into the surrounding type I soil. The depth to seasonal
high ground water is estimated to be more than 84 inches below
ground surface. This provides more than 36 inches below the bottom
of the sand lined drainfield trench before reaching the highest
seasonal ground water table. A copy of the six soil logs made on
16 November 1992 by Mr. E. A. Wiltsie, PE is attached.
There are several control methods in this proposal which will help
to ensure that the development will proceed in accordance with the
concepts laid out in this report. First, prior to or along wi th
final plat approval this development will be annexed into the Town
of Yelm. This will provide Yelm with the local control to verify
that development is occurring according to approved plans. The
Thurston County Environmental Health Division will maintain control
over the issuance of the Building Site Application (BSA) for the
on-site sewage disposal systems in the development.
Second, the lots approved for SSAS's will be listed on the face of
the plat.
Q-
Third, this development once approved will be sold to one builder.
This will facilitate better control and oversight to ensure that
specific lots are developed before sewage collection becomes
available.
All of the development occurring in this development will follow
the City of Yelm, Technical Specifications S.T.E.P. Onsite System,
prepared by parametrix, Inc, for the City of Yelm. These
specifications address new connection requirements and the
procedures to follow for existing onsite systems to connect to the
new municipal collection system
In conclusion, this report provides the pertinent facts and
information for Thurston County Health Department, Environmental
Health Division to give a favorable review and approve the plan.
However, there are three issues that must be completed before
approval wi 11 be granted by the heal th department. First, the
health department must visually inspect and verify the soil logs.
A date wi 11 be set up to wi tness the soi 1 logs at or near the
location of the logs made in the attached report.
The second issue is a legal one for the county attorney to answer.
This question is whether the health department can give approval
for the entire plat of approximately 64 lots when only 20 lots will
have on-site SSAS's until a municipal sewage collection system
becomes available.
The third issue is whether the effluent sewage pump can be placed
in the second compartment of the septic tank rather than in a
separate pump tank. The separate pump tank is not used in the Yelm
S.T.E.P. system and would have to be abandoned. Another part of
this issue is if the pump can be placed in the septic tank second
compartment, then the baffle in the septic tank must be removed for
the S.T.E.P. collector system operation.

RE: PRAIRIE CREEK PRELIMINARY PLAT
I HAVE HAD A MEETING WITH LEO DEATHERAGE AND JEROME MORRESSETTE THIS DAY AND
AFTER A QUICK LOOK AT THE REVISED PLAT AND PRELiMINARY UTILITY PLAN, 1 AM
SATISFIED THAT THE DEVELOPER HAS O~_Ip WILLING TO ACCOMPLISH ALL THE ITEMS
-----
LISTED IN YOUR LETTER. ~----
THE ONE ITEM REMAINING TO BE RESOLVED IS THE LocATION OF ANY STUB ROADS OUT
OF THE PLAT. I AM STILL NOT SATISFIED WITH THE LOCATION BEING PROPOSED IN
THE REVISION. I STILL WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE STUB LOCATED ON LOT 34 OR 35. IF
THE DEVELOPER INSISTS ON THE LOCATION SHOWN IN TRACT D, I WOULD RATHER SEE
THE STUB ELIMINATED ENTIRELY.

The following items apply to Morrissette and Associates
preliminary utilities drawing:
a) The watermain and STEP sewer collection line must be
extended across the full frontage on Middle Road and
shown accordingly on the drawings and preliminary plat.
b) The diameter of the water main should follow the size
shown in the Comprehensive Water Plan. Morrissette and
Associates must show that the required fire flow can be
provided at the most remote hydrant within the
development. In order to postpone engineering costs as
much as possible, we suggest a note on the drawing
stating that the developers understand that the main size
may be something other than the minimum. These
calculations will also determine if the Seasons
Development Co. is eligible for an over-sizing
agreement, i.e., fire flow may require that the line size
shown on the comprehensive plan is needed for this
development.
c) We are not requiring complete engineering designs at this
time. Dennis Cochran has requested ( and received)
calculations detailed enough to show that the storm water
concept will function as intended and that sufficient
area is set aside for disposal.
In regard to sidewalk construction:
a) As long as the developer provides the City with a two-
year bond to ensure completion of the sidewalk network
with a maximum of a one (1) year extension, we will
agree that piecemeal construction be allowed. However,
where phased development is obviously going to occur (in
this case because of lack of sanitary sewer service) we
need to see what phase will be constructed first. In the
event Phase 1 does not abut the existing frontage road,
some means of pedestrian travel needs to be in place.
Please identify on the preliminary plat the location of
phased construction (due to Health Department
regulations) and provide a notation on the plat that
pedestrian walks will be constructed to abut the existing
frontage road.

Please make the necessary revisions to the preliminary utility
drawings and plat as outlined in this letter. with these in place,
I am comfortable recommending approval to the Yelm City Council at
the February 24 Council Meeting. As discussed in the past, the
preliminary plat is subject to final annexation approval when the
area is officially in Yelm's jurisdiction. If this does not allow
adequate time for the revisions, we can table the decision to the
March 10 Council Meeting.
Thank you for your patience. Please feel free to contact me
directly with any questions or needed clarifications.

a support post, with a minimum 6-inch overlap, and securely
fastened at both ends to post.
2. Posts shall be spaced a maximum of 6 feet apart and driven
securely into the ground (minimum of 30 inches).
3. A trench shall be excavated approximately 8 inches wide and 12
inches deep along the line of posts and upslope from the
barrier.
4. When standard strength filter fabric is used, a wire mesh
support fence shall be fastened securely to the upslope side
of the posts using heavy-duty wire staples at least 1 inch
long, tie wires or hog rings. Thje wire shall extend into the
trench a minimum of 4 inches and shall not extend more than 36
inches above the original ground surface.
5. The standard strength filter fabric shall be stapled or wired
to the fence, and 20 inches of the fabric shall be extended
into the trench. The fabric shall not extend more than 36
inches above the original ground surface. Filter fabric shall
not be stapled to existing trees.
6. When extra-strength filter fabric and closer post spacing 1S
used, the wire mesh support fence may be eliminated. In such
a case, the filter fabric is stapled or wired directly to the
posts with all other provisions of above notes applying.
7. Filter fabric fences shall not be removed before the upslope
are has been permanently stabilized.

MEMORANDUM

To. Yelm City Counci 1
From. Todd Stamm, City Planner
Re: Yelm Creek/Middle Road Annexation and Zonin~ (ANX-
8042) and Prairie Creek Preliminary Plat (SUB-8079)
The Planning Commission has the following recommendations
with regard to this proposal
o Properties northeast of Middle Road should be deleted
from annexation area to provide logical and clean
boundaries Wood and Grinder property should remain 1n
five-acre zoning [Note: if modified as recommended
the annexation petition would lack the necessary 60%
approving petition~rs ]
o A variance is recommended to permit siting of the
stub roads as proposed within 200 feet of
intersections [The C1ty engineer recommends that, if
provided, these roads be relocated to the southwest,
constructed and dedicated ]
o Sidewalk construction as each lot 1S built upon is
acceptable to the Commission
o Frontage improvements along Middle Road, including
utilities, are also recommended
o An access waiver should be provided to the City for
lots along Middle Road
o The road cross-section must have a pavement width
consistent with Yelm's appropriate urban standard
o The stormwater pond with a depth of two feet or less
should be permitted within the wetland buffer area
Appropriate covenants should be provided to ensure that
wetlands buffer areas remain vegetated
o Engineering detail as required by the city engineer
must be prov1ded prior to f1nal plat approval

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Prairie Creek Preliminary Plat.
From a transportation perspective, this proposal could be improved in several ways.
An additional access point to the development would make the transportation system
work not just for cars, but for people using alternatives. Pedestrian pathways between
some lots or at least sidewalks along the streets would provide for better access to
potential future bus service along Middle Road. We would also encourage the
placement of a concrete pad southeast of the entrance instersection with Middle Road,
so that in the future the transit stop will be wheelchair accessible and shelter
installation will be possible.
As development proceeds in this area, we would be happy to provide additional
information and input. Please keep us apprised of its progress.
Sincerely,

RE: Railway/Middle Road Annexation and Zoning
This letter is to inform the Council that we have no objections to
the annexation of our property; McKenna Irrigated Tracts Block 36
55-0560 Lots 11-14, under the proposed annexation. However, we do
request that our current zoning of 5 acre residential/agricultural
remain in effect for our property. At this time we do not wish to
be re-zoned to single family zoning.

RE: Railway/Middle Road Annexation and Zoning
Dear Council Members,
As a property owner adjacent to the proposed development, prairie
Creek, we have the following concerns;
1. How will this development impact driving conditions on Middle
Road and Railway Road? ie. Will a new speed limit be imposed?
2. How will our natural resource, the Yelm Creek, be affected by
runoff carrying all excess fertilizers, pesticides, etc. from 64
new homes?
3. Where are the influx of children from this development going to
attend school, when our schools are already filled past
capacity?

Barbara and Robin Wood

From:
Todd stamm, City Planner
Subject: Yelm Creek Annexation - Prairie Creek Subdivision
(ANX-8042)/(SUB-8079)
Issues identified by the city staff (thus far) for consideration by
the Planning Commission:
(1) Should Single-Family Zoning be applied throughout the area?
Note that the Yelm Comprehensive Plan designates the Wood
property for industrial use.
(2) 'Stub' roads of Prairie Creek to the northwest and southeast
are not well located Yelm's subdivision standards require at
least a 200-foot centerline separation for intersections. The
staff recommends locations nearer Yelm Creek in mid-block
further from the intersections. Should they be dedicated?
Need they be constructed?
(3) Timing of sidewalk construction Should sidewalks be required
for final plat approval or in association with building
construction. A policy issue not resolved by Yelm's
subdivision ordinance. (Please consider commercial
subdivisions as well)
(4) Should an access waiver be required for lots along Middle
Road? (Technically not required by transportation plan)
(5) Note: applicant proposes Thurston County rural local street
standard instead of Yelm urban local standard; an apparent
oversight.
(6) Appl icant proposes stormwater ponds wi thin wet land buffer
area. This use is not provided for by Yelm's critical areas
ordinance, nor is it specifically prohibited Vegetation is
required in buffer areas A policy should be established.
(7) Provisions are needed to ensure that wetland buffer area
remains in vegetation; especially where in private lots
(8) Additional engineering details and revision format will be
needed for the staff to complete prel iminary plat review
Dennis Cochran, city engineer, will confer with the applicant
regarding these details

PRELIMINARY PLAT SUBMISSION
PRAIRIE CREEK SUBDIVISION
15 December 1992
The purpose of this narrative is to briefly discuss the basic
utility systems, Water, Sanitary Sewer and Stormwater, proposed
for the subject subdivision.
ROADWAYS
The internal roadways for the subdivision will consist of a
modified Rural Local Section C as defined in the New Development
Standards for Thurston County. The modifications to this
sections consist of adding shallow grassed drainage swales on
both sides of the roadway that are continuous from the pavement
and shoulder (see Typical Section on Preliminary Plat Drawing).
Sidewalk will be provided along one side of the internal roadways
as shown on the Preliminary Plat Drawing.
WATER SYSTEM
Water for the subject subdivision will be supplied by the
existing City of Yelm Water System. The nearest existing
watermain suitable for connection is located in the vicinity of
the Fort Stevens Elementary School. The existing main is 10
inches in diameter As part of the offsite improvements for this
subdivision, this watermain will be extended along Middle Road to
the intersection with the main subdivision access.
The onsite water system improvements will consist of extending an
8 inch diameter pipeline from Middle Road to the first internal
subdivision intersection (see Preliminary Plat Drawing). From
this point the two segments of the subdivision will be looped
with 6 inch diameter pipeline. Valving and Fire Hydrants will be
provided as required and as shown on the Preliminary Plat
PROFESSIONAl CONSULTING SERVICES
CIVIL AND MUNICIPAl ENGINEERING AND PLANNING
drawing.
SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM
Sanitary sewer service to the subdivision will be provided by the
City of Yelm STEP Sewer System. The proposed offsite sewer
pipeline construction will consist of extending the soon to be
constructed STEP Sewer Main from the intersection of 1st Avenue
and Railway Road down Railway Road and Middle Road to the Middle
Road access for the subdivision.
Onsite sanitary service will consist of 2 inch diameter STEP
sewer mains located as shown on the Preliminary Plat Drawing with
the appropriate terminus Pressure Sustaining Valves and Air
Release systems.
STORMWATER SYSTEM
The stormwater system shown on the Preliminary Plat Drawing has
been developed using the procedures set forth in the "Drainage
and Erosion Control Manual - Thurston Region, 1991" with the
100year/24hour Storm Hyetograph taken from the Washington State
Department of Ecology "Drainage and Erosion Control Manual,
1992." Existing and approximate proposed site topographic data
were used along with the results of six soil test holes (see
Appendix) to prepare a preliminary system design.
The proposed system consists of shallow roadside grassed swales
connected by shallow culverts at ~oad crossings (see Preliminary
Plat Drawing). The culverts will perform as submerged hydraulic
connectors between swale sections. The swale system will empty
into a series of shallow biofiltration ponds located at the south
end of the site, which will connect the swales to the Retention
Pond.
The retention pond as shown on the drawing is located within the
Wetland Buffer and consists of a depression 1.5 feet deep with a
bottom area of 15500 sf and a total volume of about 30000 cf.
This pond size is about 25000 cf smaller than the pond size
recommended by the Thurston County Manual, but will provide
adequate stormwater retention for this site. The Thurston
County Manual pond sizes include an excess volume for loss of
soil percolation capability and to remove the potential for
overflow onto adjacent land areas.
In the case of this site, the subsoils are very highly granular,
show no signs of seasonal highwater affects and overflow of the
system would release into Ye1m Creek as the present site runoff
does. In studying the existing creek, it was noted that the
creek flows on top of a localized fine grained soil strata that
nearly precludes hydraulic communication with the subsoils on the
subdivision site.
In addition to the above, the HYDRA Stormwater system analyses
performed for this site have been prepared using swale
infiltration rates of 2 in/hr, a retention pond infiltration rate
of 4 and 6 in/hr, and no release to Ye1m Creek. These values are
well within the range of the recommended aggregrate soil
infiltration rates of 4 to 6 in/hr and are significantly less
than the substrata rate of >20 in/hr. Using a pond infiltration
rate of 4 in/hr, which accounts for the potential loss of
infiltration capability, the required storage is about 20000cf,
which is considerably less than the 30000 cf provided. Using an
infiltration rate of 6 in/hr, a storage volume of 11000 cf is
required, approximately 33% of the volume provided. Finally, in
the unlikely event of a pond overflow, the pond is located
immediately adjacent to Yelm Creek and the designated wetland.
Overflow would flow into the wetland area and eventually into the
creek, yielding no significant hazard.

METHODS
Site Inspection
Property reconnaissance was conducted on 10 March, 22 Apnl and 5 May 1992 All
areas of the property were InSpected for wetland condItions
Wetlands
Wetland characteristics are described wIthin this report accordIng to the Fish and
WildlIfe ServIce Cowardin ClassIfication System (1989) Wetland delIneatIOn was
based upon the Federal Manual for IdentifYIng and DelineatIng JunsdIctIOnal Wetlands
(1989) requmng posItive IndIcators for wetland soIl, hydrology and plants.
Presence of wetland hydrology was determined based upon existing surface
condItions if water was present, or upon water depths in pits if no standIng
water occurred,
Presence of hydnc SOlI was determIned by SOlI pItS dug around suspected
wetlands. Soil was Inspected for hydnc condItions, inspection included
companson with the Munsell Color Charts (1990) General soil charactenstIcs
were derived from information contaIned withIn the Soil Conservation ServIce
SOlI Survey for Thurston County (1990),
Occurrence of wetland vegetatIOn was determIned through specIes Identification,
estimation of canopy cover and then aSSIgnment of wetland indIcator status,
indIcator status was assigned based upon the National List of Plant SpecIes That
Occur In Wetlands (3 Oct 1989)
Wetland status depicted in this report has not been confirmed by a government
official, and therefore has no legal status. Agencies with jurisdictional authority
over wetlands at the local, state and federal level need to be consulted for their
signed agreement to our findings before there is any guarantee of no change.
State Category Rating
The WashIngton State Wetlands RatIng System for Western WashIngton, Washington
State Department of Ecology, Pub #91-57, October 1991, was used to establish
Category Ratings for the wetlands.
Natural Heritage Review
A data search of the Natural Heritage System was not done.

WETLANDS
Yelm Creek Riverine
Yelm Creek abuts the southern edge of thIS property ThIS is a locally promInent
surface draInage that appears to have been channelIzed decades ago AddItional mInor
dredging occurred In 1991 to remove Instream slIt and 10crease the rate of flow
Palustrine Floodplain
A generally wIde, though vanable, Palustnne emergent floodplain occurs adjacent to
the Yelm Creek channel On-property portions are highly disturbed hay and pasture
ground devoid of woody plants except for several large Quercus garryana along the
streambank.
National Wetlands Inventory
NWI maps portray a generally similar wetland area to that field delIneated for thIS
property ThIS close correspondence is probably due to the use of aerial photos by the
federal map makers that dIsplay the dIstinct vegetatIOn pattern also used by us to flag
the wetland boundary.
Streamside Rehabilitation Project
Local efforts to restore the Yelm Creek system have been InItiated within the ViCInIty of
thIS property Specifically, extensive plant10gs of shrub and tree cutt10gs have been
recently Installed along the streambank. It IS unknown If these rehabIlItation efforts
will contInue and/or expand In the future
Potential hnpacts
Streambank eroSIOn IS the pnmary concern for functional wetland impacts on thIS SIte
The above mentIOned rehabIlItatIOn project wIll greatly reduce the potential for erosIon
to occur Restnct10g livestock from dIrect access to some or all of the stream channel
would also be hIghly beneficial for controllIng erosion and animal waste Inputs Such
fenc10g currently eXIsts along creek portions wlth10 thIS property
Wetland Buffer Aspects
The maIn focus of wetland protection wlth10 thIS property should be the Yelm Creek
channel Establish10g a large upland buffer (150'-200') from the top of the streambank
should provide adequate protection for thIS system, particularly In view of the very low
gradient profile WIthin adjacent ground Wide portions of the contiguous emergent
floodplaIn wetlands beyond this streambank buffer do not need such stnngent
protection, and a very mimmum buffer (25'-50') would be suffiCIent here. AllOWIng
mInImally mainta10ed grass "backyards" WIthIn buffers on the WIde floodplaIn wetland
areas would probably proVIde adequate protectIOn
Wetland Description
Wetlands WIthin this property conSIst of a small segment along a cont1Ouous system
associated with Yelm Creek. The following description portrays the Rivenne (stream)
and Palustrine (floodplaIn) components of thIS wetland as a section of a s10gle
connected system that extends 10 both directions from thIS property

State Category Rating: II
Pnmary Reason Permanent stream
Boundary Delineation
The stream bank edge IS a dIstmct top of bank boundary The emergent floodplam
wetland, however, has technIcally dIfficult condItlons Detalled SOlI, water and plant
measurements could be necessary to determine a precise, legal wetland boundary here
as delmeated under 1989 Tnple Parameter Methodology However, a dIstmct plant
community edge exists on site that probably represents 1991 conditions of flooded
and/or saturated ground (App III photographs) ThIS ObVIOUS plant edge could serve
as an assumed technIcal Triple Parameter Wetland boundary for junsdIctIOnal purposes
and provide good to excellent wetland IdentlficatIOn It IS unlIkely that technical
delmeatIOn could move the wetland edge further from the stream, but It IS possible that
It could move closer (lack of hydnc soils) Avoiding the need for a more detailed
wetland delIneation would save substantlal tlme and significant expense

Soils
The Yelm Creek channel contains a thick slit component. Excessive streambank
grazmg and past channelization likely contribute to thIS degraded condition The
emergent floodplam consists of very dark, non-hydric Spanaway soils. QualIfication
for hydric condItIon may reSIde WIth the level of organic material present.
Vegetation
The Yelm Creek channel is essentially all open water Streambank areas are currently
bare SOlI (1991 channel cleanng) or grasses, but many new tree/shrub plantings have
been mstalled thIS year Several mature Quercus garryana speCimens occur along the
streambank. Emergent floodp1am areas are a mix of native and exotic annuals that
