DESCRIPTION
The Town of Eatonville, uniquely positioned between the Mashel River and Lynch Creek in south Pierce County, is located in a critical area for salmon habitat and watershed health, and the Mashel River and Ohop Creek are the two highest priority salmon bearing tributaries to the Nisqually River. Approximately 80% of Eatonville's stormwater is directed away from the Mashel River and sent untreated into Ohop Creek via Lynch Creek. In 2013, the Town received a grant from the EPA to draft the Comprehensive Stormwater Plan (CSP) to address the water quality issues being brought on by stormwater runoff. The Town is not yet subject to the requirement for a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Stormwater Permit. Although the Town is not yet subject to this permit, the updated Stormwater Management Program provides a framework for future permit requirements. This project would implement major capital improvement projects proposed by the CSP.
