FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
OF THE CITY OF BREMERTON PLANNING COMMISSION
Summary — Proposal to include the South Kitsap industrial Area (SKIA) Subarea Plan
in the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code by amendment The Zoning Code will
add reference in BMC 20.80.080 to activate the SKIA Subarea Plan as development
regulations for the South Kitsap Industrial Area.
I. FINDINGS OF FACT
1.0 Project Description
The SKIA Subarea covers an approximately 3,700 acre area in the southwestern
portion of the City of Bremerton. The Subarea Plan includes two primary components
1) an amendment to the 2004 Bremerton Comprehensive Plan and to the Zoning Code,
BMC Title 20, adding the SKIA Subarea Plan to both and, 2) development regulations
for SKIA that will function as zoning upon Plan adoption.
The SKIA Manufacturing/Industrial Center (MIC) was designated in the City's
Comprehensive Plan in the 2008 amendment of the Comprehensive Plan, per
Ordinance 5062. SKIA is also designated as one of eight Manufacturing/Industrial
Centers in the PSRC Vision 2040 regional growth strategy. SKIA will retain a different
urban form than Bremerton's current regional or district centers, particularly due to the
expected industrial development to occur in the next 20 years.
Following SKIA annexations, the Industrial Zoning requirements were applied to the
entire area as an interim 'stopgap' zoning scenario. In 2010 the City obtained a grant
from the EPA under its "Climate Showcase Communities" program, which funded work
on a SKIA Subarea Plan to ensure that future development of the subarea is
coordinated, well- designed, and meets sustainable development goals, while still
meeting the goals of the MIC to accommodate intensive manufacturing and industrial
development.
The SKIA Subarea Plan is a detailed planning document that fits within the framework
of the Comprehensive Plan The Subarea Plan fits within the growth projections of the
Comprehensive Plan and implements its °Centers" concept.
2.0 Procedural History
A public participation process for the SKIA Subarea Plan has been ongoing since the
Fall of 2010. The Subarea Plan includes documentation of the public participation
process (parts of Section A and Section B). Three public open houses and a wide range of
stakeholder meetings were held over the course of the planning process. Additionally the Plan
was presented and discussed at a Planning Commission Workshop on April 17, 2012.
Extensive community input is integrated throughout the plan, meeting and exceeding
requirements

3.0 Public Comment at Public Hearing
Numerous individuals, groups, and agencies provided comments at public
workshops, community meetings, and via comment cards and letters. Comments
received were considered and used to develop the draft plan that is prepared for
Planning Commission Review A general summary of public participation is found in
Section A of the SKIA Subarea Plan. Individuals providing verbal testimony at the
Planning Commission Public Hearing are listed below:
3.1 Fred Salisbury, Port of Bremerton, 8850 S.W. State Hwy 3, Bremerton

3.4 Ryan Sandstrom, Alpine Evergreen, 7124 State Hwy 3 SW, Bremerton
4.0 SEPA Determination, Environmental Review, and Agency Notification
4.1 SEPA
Adoption of development regulations and amendments to the Comprehensive Plan
require evaluation of environment impacts through the State Environmental Policy
Act (SEPA) process. The City issued a SEPA Determination of Significance (DS) on
the Plan on September 29, 2010. The Subarea Plan is likely to have a significant
adverse impact on the environment due to the threshold of development expected to
occur. The DS requires statutory notice, review and appeal periods, which the City
completed
The determination that this proposal is likely to have a significant adverse impact on
the environment resulted in the preparation of an environmental impact statement
(EIS) as outlined below.
4.2 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the SKIA Subarea Plan evaluates the
probable significant environmental impacts that could occur as a result of
development activities within SKIA under a range of EIS Alternatives. Direct, indirect
and cumulative impacts associated with the range of alternatives were assessed.
Impacts associated with the alternatives were analyzed and appropriate mitigation
measures to address significant adverse impacts were identified. The EIS provides
decision- makers with relevant information to evaluate the Proposed Action The EIS
addresses the probable significant adverse environmental impacts of two action
alternatives and one no- action alternative identified in the Subarea planning
process.
The EIS is also intended to fulfill SEPA requirements for Planned Action
environmental review. According to SEPA, a "Planned Action" is a designation for a
project or elements of a project that shifts environmental review from the time a
permit application is made to an earlier phase in the process (WAC 197 -11 -164).
The planned action analysis applies to the entire study area and addresses potential
impacts and mitigating measures for each of the identified alternatives.
3 of 7
EXHIBIT A
Because future site - specific proposals that qualify under the planned action
ordinance would not be subject to future SEPA threshold determinations or public
comment on environmental impacts, interested individuals and agencies were given
the opportunity to provide comment during the public comment periods during the
planned action EIS process.
The Draft EIS was issued on June 9, 2011 and the Final EIS was issued on March
29, 2012. The Draft EIS and the Final EIS are intended to be used in conjunction
with one another.
4.3 60-day State Agency Review
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and development regulations also require
a 60 day State Agency Review and Comment Period The document was forwarded
to State agencies, commencing the review period, on March 29, 2012. There were
no comments received from State agencies during the review period, which closed
on May 29, 2012.
5.0 Comprehensive Plan Consistency
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan
Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan shall meet the decision criteria outlined in
BMC 20.10 The Planning Commission may recommend, and the City Council may
adopt or adopt with modifications, an amendment to the comprehensive plan if the
criteria outlined below are met. The proposal is to add the SKIA Subarea Plan to the
Bremerton Comprehensive Plans as an amendment, providing more specific and
detailed planning for the area.
5.1 BMC 20.10.080(a) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if there is an
obvious technical error.
Not applicable to this project
5.2 BMC 20.10.080(b) allows amendments to the Comprehensive Plan if the
following criteria have been met.
5.2 (1) The amendment is consistent with the Growth Management Act (GMA):
This amendment is consistent with the GMA by meeting the criteria of the
Comprehensive Plan which was created to achieve the goals of the GMA.
Specifically, the Subarea Plan meets the Economic Development goal by
supporting existing industries, recruiting new industrial sectors, and
emphasizing the development of a "clean -tech" sector. Through the various
Low4mpact Development (UD) measures and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Reducing measures outlined in the standards (Section C), guidelines (Section
D), and the EIS, the Subarea Plan meets the Environment goal by striving to
enhance the quality of the local environment. Furthermore, through an
aggressive public outreach component, which focused on both public
involvement as well as involvement of staff at regional jurisdictions and
4of7
EXHIBIT A
agencies, the Subarea Plan meets the Citizen Participation and Regional
Coordination goal of the GMA
The GMA encourages the adoption of subarea plans, recognizing that this
may occur outside of the annual amendment bmeframe, as is the case with
the SKIA Subarea Plan.
5.2 (2) The amendment is consistent with the comprehensive plan or other goals
or policies of the City.
The SKIA Subarea Plan is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Land Use
Map designation of the SKIA Subarea as a Manufacturing/industrial Center.
The Manufacturing/lndustnal Center designation calls for intensive,
concentrated manufacturing and industrial land uses that cannot be easily
mixed with other activities. Furthermore, Manufacturing/lndustrial Centers
are intended to accommodate a significant amount of regional employment,
and will have a different urban form and purpose than the rest of the City's
centers. The Subarea Plan achieves this vision through the Goals and
Strategies (Section A), the Zoning and Development Standards (Section C),
and the Design Guidelines (Section D) which promote compact industrial and
commercial development and job creation that support long -term economic
vitality.
The Subarea Plan also includes specific goals and strategies that meet the
Bremerton Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, the Subarea Plan encourages
environmentally responsible development and economic development, which
are goals also found in the Comprehensive Plan.
5.2 (3) If the amendment was reviewed but not adopted as a part of a previous
proposal, circumstances related to the proposed amendment have significantly
changed, or the needs of the City have changed, which support an amendment,
This amendment supplements and implements the Comprehensive Plan. It is
based on the direction of the Comprehensive Plan to develop specific area
plans for the SKIA Manufacturing /Industrial Center
5.2 (4) The amendment is compatible with existing or planned land uses and the
surrounding development pattern,
The SKIA Subarea Plan is compatible with the adopted
Manufacturing/Industrial Center land use and the surrounding development
pattern. Industrial uses currently are predominant in the Subarea and through
the Subarea Plan, industrial uses are intended to remain the predominating
use in the long term.
5.2 (5) The amendment will not adversely affect the City's ability to provide urban
services at the planned level of service and bears a reasonable relationship to
benefiting the public health, safety and welfare
5 of 7
EXHIBIT
The SKIA Subarea Plan will not adversely affect the City's ability to provide
urban services at the planned level of service. The Environmental Impact
Statement addresses the City's ability to provide urban services at the
planned level of service. Additionally, the GMA compliant Capital Facilities
Plan (Section E) outlines the provision of urban services, including
transportation, water, sewer, and stormwater facilities The purpose of the
CFP for SKIA is to provide adequate public facilities consistent with the
development plan of the SKIA Subarea Plan. Careful planning and sound
fiscal policies will provide the needed facilities that achieve and maintain the
City of Bremerton's standards for level of service concurrent with, or prior to,
the impacts of development.
The amendment will benefit the public health, safety and welfare by achieving
numerous City goals and policies related to environmental stewardship, while
ensuring that intense industrial development occurs where it is most suited
6.0 Amendment to the Zoning Code
An amendment to the Zoning Code, BMC 20.80.080 Master Development, is proposed
to accompany adoption of the SKiA Subarea Plan. This amendment adds a reference
to the Ordinance adopting the Subarea Plan, thereby activating the development
standards contained in the Plan as the zoning for the SKIA Subarea.
Zoning code text amendments shall meet the decision criteria outlined in BMC
20.18 020 (d) The Planning Commission may recommend, and the City Council may
adopt or adopt with modifications, an amendment to the zoning code text if the criteria
outlined below are met.
6.1(1) 20.18.020(d)(2) allows amendments to the Zoning Code if it is consistent
with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Plan
See discussion in 5.2 above for consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, and
Section A of the Subarea Plan. The SKIA Subarea Plan is fully consistent with the
Bremerton Comprehensive Plan.
The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map shows the SKIA Subarea as a
Manufactunng /Industrial Center, which is described on page LU -23a of the
amended Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan as
...areas with existing or expected intensive, concentrated manufacturing and
industrial land uses that cannot be easily mixed with other activities.
Manufacturingfindustnal Centers are intended to accommodate a significant
amount of regional employment, and will have a different urban form and
purpose than the rest of the City's centers. They can be characterized as areas
of large contiguous blocks of land served by the region's major transportation
infrastructure, including such items as roads, rail, and port facilities. Protecting
these centers from incompatible uses, as well as providing them with adequate
public facilities and services will riequire deliberate and careful planning.
6of7
EXHIBIT
The SKIA Subarea Plan is consistent with this vision for the
Manufacturing /Industrial Center and achieves it through the Goals and Strategies
(Section A) and the Zoning and Development Standards (Section C).
6.2(2) 20.18.020(d)(2) allows amendments to the Zoning Code if it does not
conflict with other City, state and federal codes, regulations and ordinances.
The SKIA Subarea plan does not conflict with any other regulations.
11. CONCLUSIONS and RECOMMENDATION
Based on the findings above, the Planning Commission concludes that the SKIA
Subarea Plan has met the requirements for 1) amendment to the Comprehensive Plan
and 2) text amendments to the zoning code as detailed in BMC 20.80. Therefore the
Commission recommends the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan to include the
SKIA Subarea Plan and an amendment to the zoning code text in BMC 20.80 to include
the Ordinance number of the SKIA Subarea Plan.

Dear Mayor Lent:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the South Kitsap Industrial Area (SKIA) Sub -
Area Plan being prepared by the City of Bremerton. This Plan will help guide SKIA as it grows
into a key employment center for Kitsap County and provides opportunities for high -tech
jobs at family wages
On behalf of Kitsap County, I offer the following comments regarding the Draft Plan and
Preferred Alternative:
7 a The Preferred Alternative reduces the number of expected fobs in SKIA to 6,500
(down from the 9,350 projected as the basis for the LIGA's designation in 2003). Since
2003, the SKIA area was designated a regional growth center for employment by the
Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC). The PSRC sets a goal of 10,000 jobs for such a
center. PSRC input regarding the substantially reduced employment projection should
be documented prior to a final decision by the City Council. A growth center
designation -- and access to additional federal funds -- is key to the successful
development of the SKIA area, and any action that may affect it should be justified in
advance.
• The SKIA area was designated based upon a countywide analysis of employment
needs through 2012 and recently extended through 2025. As SKIA was fully -
Industrial /manufacturing focused, those were the employment sectors projected for
this area. Yet the Preferred Alternative proposes to redesignate several hundred
acres of the developable land from full manufacturing to mixed employment. This
change appears to allow for retail and service employee sectors never expected to
occupy SKIA. Rather, these jobs were allocated to other portions of the cities and
county based upon the countywide analysis. Neither the Draft Plan nor the HIS
Include analysis to support the increased need for retail and service land and this
large redesignation. Without analysis, other jurisdictions cannot determine whether
this new land supply impacts their areas already designated for such uses.
• The code provisions for the mixed - employment area may not provide for the retail
services and high -tech manufacturing mix. It appears open to varied uses without

prescribing requirements for a mix of uses would be required. Additional limits seem
necessary to ensure future development meets the intent for this area.
I have also attached a comment letter from the Department of Public Works regarding
specific elements of the Plan and FEIS. The issues generally relate to transportation
methodology and consistency between jurisdictions.
Again, thank you for the opportunity to comment. This Plan will be an important blueprint
for SKIA's future and we look forward to opportunities to collaborate further as the plan
moves toward adoption.

Re: South Kitsap Industrial Area (SKIA) Su -Area Plan c
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Draft SKIA Sub -area Plan, Transportation
section pages 1 -19 to 1 -27
There is no analysis of impacts to any county roads, only intersections of county roads with SR3
or SR16
As stated in previous comments on the Draft 2011 Ian,
b . p p no jurisdictions in Kitsap County have
set Level of Service Standards for intersections Much of the analysis in this plan focuses on
intersection LOS Intersection LOS should be analyzed and adopted by the City of Bremerton
and Kitsap County in the future in support of the SKIA Plan
In our opinion, the Belfair By -pass may relieve traffic in the Belfair community, but will have no
impact on SR3 in Kitsap County Those travelling to the shipyard or points north that might use
the by -pass will still merge onto SR3 at the Kitsap /Mason border Those travelling south to
Tacoma already have the ability to turn onto Lake Flora Road and avoid SR3 without using the
by -pass
Alternatives 2 and 3
In the Sub -area plan, it is stated on page 1 -21 "however, since WSDOT has not considered or
planned for these alternative improvements, they are considered infeasible" and page 1 -22
"However, these improvements are not in any WSDOT plans and could lead to additional right -
of -way, environmental and cost impacts and are considered infeasible" Stating that
improvements are considered infeasible does not relieve the proponent from mitigating the
transportation need

SUMMARY:
The Bremerton Municipal Code (BMC) Chapter 20 04, contains provisions for the City's
implementation of the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) requirements The City's regulations
were drafted primarily in 1984, and since that time the state legislature has made modifications to
SEPA Staff recommends that Council update the references in the BMC to include new provisions
contained in the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) related to SEPA
The proposed ordinance contains two updates to the SEPA rules
1) Reference is added to BMC 20 04 010 Statutory Authority to include reference to the city's
comprehensive plan, capital facilities plans, and municipal code These references are
important as these policies and regulations and their associated environmental review
documents are often used during the mitigation process for development projects
2) Add a new Section 20 04 205 called "Planned Action " This incorporates the provisions
contained within the WAC 197 -11 164, 197 -11 -168, & 197 -11 -17

Attachment II — WAC References
WAC 197 -11 -172 Planned actions -- Project review.
(1) Review of a project proposed as a planned action is intended to be simpler and more focused
than for other protects. A project proposed as a planned action must qualify as the planned action
designated in the planned action ordinance or resolution, and must meet the statutory criteria for
a planned action in RCW 43.21C 031 Planned action project review shall include:
(a) Verification that the project meets the description in, and will implement any
applicable conditions or mitigation measures identified in, the designating ordinance or
resolution; and
(b) Verification that the probable significant adverse environmental impacts of the
protect have been adequately addressed in the EIS prepared under WAC 197 -11 -164
(1)(b) through review of an environmental checklist or other project review form as
specified in WAC 197 -11 -315, filed with the project application
(2)(a) If the project meets the requirements of subsection (1) of this section, the project shall
qualify as the planned action designated by the GMA county /city, and a project threshold
determination or EIS is not required Nothing in this section limits a GMA county /city from
using this chapter or other applicable law to place conditions on the protect in order to mitigate
nonsignificant impacts through the normal local project review and permitting process
(b) If the project does not meet the requirements of subsection (1) of this section, the
project is not a planned action and a threshold determination is required In conducting
the additional environmental review under this chapter, the lead agency may use
information in existing environmental documents, including the EIS used to designate the
planned action (refer to WAC 197 -11 -330 (2)(a) and 197 -11 -600 through 197 -11 -635). If
an EIS or SEIS is prepared on the proposed project, its scope is limited to those probable
significant adverse environmental impacts that were not adequately addressed in the EIS
used to designate the planned action.
(3) Public notice for protects that qualify as planned actions shall be tied to the underlying
permit If notice is otherwise required for the underlying permit, the notice shall state that the
project has qualified as a planned action If notice is not otherwise required for the underlying
permit, no special notice is required However, the GMA county /city is encouraged to provide
some form of public notice as deemed appropriate

Exhibit B
South Kitsap Industrial Area (SKIA) Subarea Plan
Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
The State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) requires environmental review for project and non -
project proposals that may have adverse impacts upon the environment
In order to meet SEPA requirements, the City of Bremerton issued the Draft SKIA Subarea Plan
Planned Action Environmental Impact Statement on June 9, 2011, and Final Environmental
Impact Statement on March 29, 2012 The Draft Environmental Impact Statement and the Final
Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement are referenced collectively herein as the "EIS"
The EIS has identified significant impacts that would occur with the future development of the
Planned Action area, together with a number of possible measures to mitigate those significant
impacts.
The purpose of this Mitigation Document is to document the specific mitigation measures
identified in the EIS, based upon the identified significant impacts The EIS considers potential
impacts associated with the natural environment, greenhouse gases, land use, cultural resources„
aesthetics, transportation, public services and utilities
The mitigation measures would apply to future development proposals which are consistent with
the EIS and located within the Planned Action area (see Exhibit A) It should be noted that some
EIS mitigation measures identified in the EIS address potential Subarea Plan policies and
development standards. These measures have been considered as part of the Subarea Plan
process and are not included in this Mitigation Document This Exhibit also summarizes
measures, excluding background discussion and similar information. Please refer to the Draft and
Final EIS for complete text associated with each element of the environment.
NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
Applicable Regulations and Requirements
Earth
• Specific foundation support systems to be used for onsite improvements will be
determined as part of the specific design and permit process for infrastructure and
individual buildings associated with future site development.
• Site - specific studies and evaluations would be conducted in accordance with City of
Bremerton Municipal Code requirements and the provisions of the most recent version of
the IBC
Landsliding
• If any development occurs adjacent to steeper slopes within SKIA, site - specific slope
stability analyses would be conducted during the design and permit process in order to
determine the required setback buffer widths. Potential mitigation measures include
2
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
limiting soil disturbance and vegetation removal, limiting building footprint and
impervious surface areas, constructing retaining walls, and revegetating the slopes
located within moderate to high geologically hazardous areas
• During a large seismic event, some sloughing and slope movement would likely occur
within loose surficial materials on the steeper slopes present within SKIA Site - specific
analysis of any development planned adjacent to or near these slopes would be completed
during the design and permit process to address specific methods to mitigate potential
landslide impacts
Erosion
During construction, temporary erosion and sedimentation control measures and Best
Management Practices would be used to control erosion. These measures would be consistent
with City regulations, and could include the following
• Limit areas of exposure
• Schedule earthwork during drier times of the year
• Retain vegetation where possible, especially on the steeper slope areas within SKIA
• Seed or plant appropriate vegetation on exposed areas as soon as earthwork is completed
• Construct stabilized construction entrances with rock pads or truck washing stations to
limit excess soil materials from entering the right -of -way
• Route surface water through temporary drainage channels around and away from
disturbed soils or exposed slopes
• Use silt fences, temporary sedimentation ponds, or other suitable sedimentation control
devices to collect and retain possible eroded material
• Cover exposed soil stockpiles and exposed slopes with plastic sheeting, as appropriate
• Use straw mulch and erosion control matting to stabilize graded areas and reduce erosion
and runoff impacts to slopes, where appropriate
• Intercept and drain water from any surface seeps, if encountered
• Incorporate contract provisions allowing temporary cessation of work under certain,
limited circumstances, if weather conditions warrant
Seismic Hazards
With development consistent with the City of Bremerton Municipal Code and IBC, no additional
mitigation measures would be required
Settlement
Impacts associated with potential settlement of buildings, roadways, utilities, or other
infrastructure improvements constructed on areas with peat deposits would be mitigated by use
of typical design and construction measures that could include- partial to full removal of peat
deposits and replacement with structural fill; preloading; use of geosynthetic reinforcing
materials to support fill materials; settlement monitoring; use of driven steel pipe or H -piles or
i
rammed aggregate piers for building foundation support.
Construction Excavation
Impacts from temporary construction excavations could be mitigated through the use of properly
designed and constructed excavation shoring systems or sloped excavations in accordance with
3
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
Safety Standards for Construction Work Part N, Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 296-
155
Construction Dewatering
Site - specific investigations and analyses during the design and permitting process would
determine what structures may require or be influenced by excavation dewatering. Mitigation
measures to control the potential impact of excavation dewatering include site - specific design
and control of dewatering systems, minimizing the extent and duration of dewatering, and
monitoring for settlement.
Extracted groundwater may contain certain chemical contaminants and/or high turbidity, which
might necessitate special handling, treatment, and/or disposal methods. Mitigation measures
include monitoring to assess the quality of dewatering discharges and treatment, of needed, to
comply with applicable state and local requirements
Placement of Structural Fill
Ground subsidence impacts could be mitigated by designing the fill to control adjacent
settlements, including settlement monitoring and use of geosynthetnc reinforcing materials to
support fill materials over peat Adjacent structures /surfaces could be monitored during
construction to verify that no adverse settlement occurs.
Placement of structural fill to modify site grades adjacent to high or moderate geologically
hazardous areas would require site - specific geotechnical investigations, slope stability analyses,
and design and construction of earth retention structures, fill slopes, and drainage and erosion
control measures as needed to stabilize the area
Foundation Construction
Foundation construction impacts could be mitigated by site specific design and construction
procedures, including temporary excavation shoring and dewatering, overexcavation of
unsuitable materials and replacement with structural fill, use of deep foundations or ground
improvement techniques, conducting pre- and post - construction surveys of nearby buildings,
monitoring of ground movements, and vibration monitoring during pile installation.
Aquifer Recharge Areas
Groundwater protection strategies to be used for onsrte improvements will be determined as part
of the specific design and permit process for infrastructure and individual buildings associated
with future site development Site- specific studies and evaluations would be conducted in
accordance with City of Bremerton Municipal Code requirements, including conditions set forth
by the City's Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO). Methods are available to build out SKIA without
resulting in significant unavoidable adverse impacts. Mitigation measures to limit impacts to
aquifer recharge areas during each mayor stage of project are discussed below.
Construction impacts are short-term impacts that could occur during the construction phase of
site redevelopment. BMPs to manage site construction and operation activities will be in place to
reduce potential impacts to aquifer recharge areas. Environmental monitoring during the
construction process will verify that required best management practices are followed
4
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
BMPs required under the City's CAO to control construction - related impacts include, but are not
limited to, proper containment and storage of construction materials, proper containment and
disposal of waste materials, and appropriate and effective management of stormwater
BMPs required under the City's CAO to control operational- related impacts include, but are not
limited to, spill control plans, waste management plans, and appropriate long -term management
of sanitary sewer and stormwater management infrastructure
Plants and Animals
The following mitigation measures would reduce potential impacts to plants, animals, and
their habitat.
• Required stormwater best management practices would attenuate flows and prevent
polluted water from entering the stormwater system and ensure that construction and
operation activities would not impact the ESA - listed species, critical habitats, or Essential
Fish Habitat in Sinclair Inlet, Hood Canal, North Bay, and/or their tributaries in the
project vicinity
• Comply with critical area mitigation sequence requirements in the City of Bremerton
critical areas ordinance to avoid, minimize, and mitigate for unavoidable impacts to
wetlands, streams, and their buffers
• Stream mitigation could include improving fish access through redesigned culvert
crossings or installation of fish passable culverts associated with new road crossings.
Install native plants, as possible, and remove invasive plants, in accordance with
Executive Order 13112, to provide habitat for native ammals and to reduce future
maintenance efforts
• Nest removal for species protected under MBTA would occur outside of nesting season
after birds have fledged
CLIMATE CHANGE AND GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
Greenhouse gas mitigating measures identified in the EIS were for proposed plan features that
could be incorporated into the Subarea Plan policies and development standards These
mitigating measures were considered as part of the planning process and adopted zoning and
development regulations contained in the SKIA Subarea Plan, Sections C and D, already address
potential greenhouse gas mitigating measures No additional measures are necessary
5
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
LAND USE
Applicable Regulations and Requirements
Many land use mitigating measures identified in the EIS were for proposed plan features that
have been incorporated into the Subarea Plan policies and development standards Adopted
zoning and development regulations contained in the SKIA Subarea Plan, Sections C and D,
already address potential land use mitigating measures identified in the EIS
CULTURAL RESOURCES
Applicable Regulations and Requirements
The EIS identified applicable federal and state laws that govern protection and preservation of
archaeological sites as described below.
Federal Laws
• The Archaeological Resource Protection Act of 1979 helps secure the protection of
archaeological resources and sites that are on public and Indian lands and assists in
sharing of information among entities seeking to preserve these resources
• The National Historic Preservation Act establishes national standards for designation of
historic and culturally significant properties, including archaeological sites In addition,
this Act of Congress establishes the office of the State Historic Preservation Officer
Section 106 USC 470(a)(d) of this law establishes a program to assist Indian Tribes in
preserving their particular historic properties.
• The Archaeological and Historic Preservation Act of 1974 governs archaeological and
other historic and cultural resources found in federal construction activities, including the
construction of dams.
• The Native American Graves and Repatriation Act governs protection, preservation, and
repatriation of Native American remains and cultural artifacts found in Native American
burial sites
State Laws
• Governor's Executive Order 05 -05 requires State agencies with capital improvement
projects to integrate the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, the
Governor's Office of Indian Affairs, and concerned Tribes into their capital project
planning process This Executive Order affects any capital construction projects and any
land acquisitions for purposes of capital construction
• RCW 27.44 Indian Graves and Records provides protection for Indian graves and burial
grounds, encourages voluntary reporting of said sites when they are discovered, and
mandates a penalty for disturbance or desecration of such sites.
• RCW 27.53 Archaeological Sites and Resources governs the protection and preservation
of archaeological sites and resources and establishes the Department of Archaeology and
Historic Preservation as the administering agency for these regulations
• RCW 68.60 Abandoned and Historic Cemeteries and Historic Graves provides for the
protection and preservation of abandoned and historic cemeteries and historic graves

Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
Other Mitigation
All cultural resource mitigating measures identified in the EIS were for proposed plan features
that could be incorporated into the Subarea Plan or other city policies. These mitigating measures
were considered as part of the planning process and no additional measures are necessary
AESTHETICS
SKIA has historically been, and will continue to be, planned for industrial development. The
expectation is for development with industrial character and uses that meets the intent of the
respective zone. Consequently, future industrial development under any of the alternatives would
be consistent with public expectations and unlikely to result in significant adverse visual impacts
However, visual screening and measures to retain vegetation could help improve the overall
character of future industrial development.
Many of the aesthetics mitigating measures identified in the EIS were for proposed plan features
that could be incorporated into the Subarea Plan policies and development standards These
mitigating measures were considered as part of the planning process and have been incorporated
into Section D of the Subarea Plan Please see section D for measures that could help retain
forested areas, provide for visual screening from public nghts -of -way and ensure that view
corridors are retained
TRANSPORTATION
Applicable Regulations and Commitments
Many of the transportation mitigating measures identified in the EIS were for proposed plan
features that could be incorporated into the Subarea Plan policies and development standards
These mitigating measures were considered as part of the planning process and specific measures
that have been incorporated into the SKIA Subarea Plan include
SKU Subarea Plan, Section C Zoning and Development Standards, Chapter S Right of Way
Standards — Chapter 5 contains conceptual street standards, a process for deferred construction
of street frontage improvements, mtersection standards, including a preference for roundabouts,
and non - motorized facilities standards This section also includes a conceptual roadway network
and preferred street typologies map (Figure 1).
SKU Subarea Plan, Section E Capital Facilities Plan — The Capital Facilities Plan identifies
the Roadway Improvement Projects (local and state) as listed in Table 1 and Figure 1, below
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
The Capital Facilities Plan establishes a financing plan for transportation projects based on the
following assumptions
• Grants will be sought and used to pay for as much of the project costs as possible
• SKIA developers /property owners are responsible for funding the portion of local road
improvements that are not funded by grants.
• The state is responsible for the cost of state road projects other than local matching
requirements, which, from recent experience, can be up to 20%

Local roads. Development proposal applications submitted to the City for planned action review
will include a trip generation and distribution report. The City will review and verify this report
for use in determining the percentage share contribution from the proposal for local road
improvements.
State roads. The EIS and Subarea Plan recognize that coordination with the Washington State
Department of Transportation ( WSDOT) to ensure that improvements to state facilities needed as
a result of growth and development in SKIA is essential. The City should work with WSDOT to
prepare a Memorandum of Understanding or other instrument to establish the process for
improvements to state facilities impacted by SKIA development.
NOTE: MITIGATION STRUCTURE. Staff is currently developing a mitigation structure
to clearly outline the manner in which proportional fees will be charged for traffic impacts.
This will be presented prior to adoption.
Other Mitigation
Transit, Bicycle, and Pedestrian Circulation
Assuming the transit, bicycle, and pedestrian elements of the SKIA Subarea Plan are
implemented, no additional mitigation measures are required for these modes of travel.
10
Exhibit B: SKIA Planned Action Ordinance
Mitigation Measures
Traffic Safety
Future development would lead to additional traffic passing through the Collision Analysis
Location (CAL) identified by WSDOT at SR 3 near Lake Flora Road Implementing the
intersection improvements described above to improve traffic operations at the SR 3 / Lake Flora
Road intersection should also reduce the number of collisions, particularly those where failure to
yield was the primary cause. While this impact is considered less - than- significant with
mitigation, monitoring of this location should continue after the implementation of any
improvements at the intersection
PUBLIC SERVICES
Mitigation measures can be taken to prevent or further minimize environmental consequences to
public services, including
• Coordinate with South Kitsap Fire and Rescue and Bremerton Police Department during
final design, construction, and operation of future development under proposed action to
ensure that reliable emergency access is maintained.
• Reduce public safety impacts thru adherence to CPTED design standards
UTILITIES
Stormwater
Applicable Regulations and Requirements
• Water quality and quantity impacts can be mitigated by the practices required by the
City's regulatory process for stormwater (BMC 15 04)
Water and Wastewater
Applicable Regulations and Requirements
• Bremerton Municipal Code 15 02 and 15 03 set forth standards for water and wastewater
with which all development must comply
• Future development would comply with adopted City policies and regulations in the
SKIA Subarea Plan, Section E Capital Facilities Plan and other applicable water and
wastewater planning documents. The SKIA Subarea Plan Capital Facilities Plan
identifies water and sewer projects in SKIA as shown in Table 2
• The Capital Facilities Plan establishes that SKIA developers /property owners are
responsible for the local access water lines that provide access to their property from the
core water system and that the cost of core water system improvements would be paid by
the City and/or SKIA developers /property owners. Because requirements will vary
depending on the location and nature of the proposal, the City will work with applicants
on a case -by -case basis to determine project - specific needs
