2 Insects to Salmon to Orcas Shores are vital to our iconic west coast species Insects Salmon Smelt, Herring and Sand Lance Orcas
3 How do we get homeowners from this Green Shores for Homes to something more like this?
4 EPA Puget Sound Watershed Management Assistance Program Green Shores for Homes awarded a grant in 2010 Collaborative effort between - City of Seattle & San Juan County in Washington State & British Columbia, Canada The Watershed Company
5 Green Shores for Homes A Tale of three jurisdictions in the Salish Sea Funded by an EPA Grant to the City of Seattle Map Credit: Steven Fick/Canadian Geographic
6 Lake Washington Seattle Bellevue Mercer Island Kirkland ESA-listed Chinook salmon > 70% shoreline armored Lake Washington critical habitat - rearing and migration Renton
7 City of Seattle Lake Washington homeowners surveyed (n=2,280; 19% response) >70% believe salmon habitat = desirable function >90% limited understanding of alternatives to shoreline armoring
8 Green Shorelines Guidebook Alternative Shoreline Design Residential Property Green Shores TM Coastal Development Rating System Commercial Property
9 Green Shorelines Decision Tree
10 Green Shores Credits
11 Green Shores Rating System Voluntary credit rating system designed to promote sustainable coastal development Modelled after LEED Credits 1) action based; 2) require minimal professional sign-off ; 3) verified through permit documents & a site visit Defines green shores for residential property Builds local capacity through trained Green Shores for Home verifiers. The Watershed Company
12 Green Shores for Homes Program Components 1. Technical Team develops and tests GSH credit system. 2. Local government partners indentify incentives. 3. Local governments engage homeowners and builders about the credit system and incentive program. 4. Technical Team trains Green Shores for Home Verifiers. 5. Increase the site specific technical information 6. Local Government pilots Green Shores for Homes
13 GSH Rating Credits Categories 1. Shoreline Processes 2. Shoreline Habitat 3. Water Quality - Runoff and Pollutant Management 4. Shore Stewardship
14 Green Shores for Homes Incentives Technical Assistance Roaming technical expert Early project planning assistance Expedited/Free Permits Determine credit score of project Expedite permit review Subsidize or waive permit fee
15 Green Shores for Homes Incentives Financial Tax break - determine what actions earn tax breaks Fee in Lieu Program - $$ Increase in property values
16 Site Specific Technical Information Shore Energy Sig. Wave Height -15 LWD Peak Period -15 LWD 16
17 How Does the Rating System Really Work? Rating system evaluation Submittal information required Ease of scoring each site Credit categories Results of evaluation Adjustment to rating system The Watershed Company
18 Rating System Evaluation San Juan Salish Sea Lake Lake Washington Washington February Freshwater sites Kirkland, WA Lake Washington 2 Marine sites San Juan County, WA Salish Sea Tech team members 2 subgroups N &S
19 Lake Washington Green Shore Site Components Site 2 Site 1 Both sites Partial bulkhead removal Gray and green shoreline structures installed Riparian vegetation Large woody debris Gravel and boulder placement
20 Lake Washington Site 1 Before After
21 Lake Washington Site2
22 San Juan County Sites Site 2 Site 1 Orcas Island - Site 1 Bulkhead removed Soft shore protection Creosote pile removal San Juan Island - Site 2 no bulkhead installed rainwater management limited site disturbance, native vegetation/tree
23 San Juan County Site 1 Before After
24 San Juan County Site 2
25 Submittal Information and Ease of Rating System Reviewed info provided for permit applications Permits - Shoreline Master Program/Environmentally Critical Areas Determine information needed to calculate credit score The Watershed Company Ease of use link to credit document
26 Credit Categories 3 Main Categories Shoreline Processes Bulkhead removal Setbacks Shoreline Habitat Riparian vegetation Large woody debris Water Quality Impervious surface Pesticide/herbicide/fertilizer Monitoring required or bonus points, what if you don t do something, i.e. don t put in a bulkhead, don t cut down trees, the roll of LWD in different environments.
27 What Did We Learn and What Did We Change? All sites are not created equally - site conditions influence what can be done on site Example - Parcel size, urban/rural, freshwater/marine Difference in LWD function in the marine environment compared to a lake environment. Result adjusted rating system so smaller wood is favored in the lake environment LWD okay for marine environment
28 What Did We Learn and Most important - condition of site at the completion of project Award credits for saving trees Don t penalize a site that doesn t have a bulkhead & isn t adding one Adjusted rating system Implementation June 2015 What Did We Change?
29 Bonus Information Lake WA property owners What motivated the home owners to green their shoreline? Attracting a lot of attention from recreational boaters
