Update from Kahle Jennings 10/19/2016 PHASE 1: On August 30, 2016 the USACE sent the following information via email: “we are complete with Section 7 ESA review. We are still reviewing Section 106 National Historic Preservation Act and Dredged Materials.” Also on August 30, 2016 the USACE sent the following information via email: “As a part of the project review process the Corps must comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Today I received information from our Cultural Resources Program Manager that a cultural resources assessment is required for this project. Please provide a hard copy and electronic copy of the assessment.” I emailed them the electronic copy that same day. In September 2016 we contracted with a soils engineer to perform soil tests on the project site. We are still waiting for that report. Note: Schedule here is updated to 5-19-2016 for Cultural Resources Assessment (instead of 4-19-16). PHASE 2: Two biologists were in the field at China Creek on Friday Sept 16 and Thursday and Friday Sept. 22 and 23 doing a baseline biological assessment of the Phase 2 site following a sampling plan approved by WDFW.
