This feature class' intended purpose is to be used in GIS to identify property which may be impacted by stream buffers and therefore subject to Puyallup Municipal Code regulation. All buffers are ESTIMATES as they are based upon the streams feature class which is a polyline feature class. Ordinary high water is not indicated in either this or the streams feature class. All buffers are subject to fluctuation based upon field verified OHWM and all should be investigated if indicated near or within a project area. Streams that are categorized as Type III or IV are given the higher buffer width of the Type III stream. |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This feature class of stream buffers is a compilation of Type I - IV stream buffers within the City of Puyallup and its Urban Growth Area. Buffer edges are not to be assumed accurate because it is based upon a polyline feature class of stream centerlines and not the stream's OHWM. This layer is for reference only.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

Please note that Type III and Type IV streams have not been identified as Type III or Type IV, therefore, these streams were buffered with the greater Type III 50' buffer width. Do not assume 50' buffer widths mean that streams in this category are all Type III streams. Buffering was done this way for </SPAN><SPAN>efficiency. All Type III and Type IV streams should be evaluated by a qualified consultant to determine its category and buffer width.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
