(1) For nonexempt proposals, the DNS or final EIS for the proposal shall accompany the County’s staff recommendation to the decision-making body or appropriate advisory body, such as the Planning Commission, Shorelines and Sensitive Areas Committee, Board of Adjustment, or Board of Commissioners.

(2) If the County’s only action on a proposal is a decision on a building permit or other license that requires detailed project plans and specifications, the applicant may request in writing that the County conduct environmental review prior to submission of the detailed plans and specifications. However, the applicant must still apply for the required license(s) and submit plans detailed enough to accomplish adequate environmental review pursuant to this chapter.
