IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON
DIVISION II
KIM LORD, Personal Representative of the No. 41353-1-II
Estate of Barbara Winde,
Petitioner,
v.
PIERCE COUNTY, PUBLISHED OPINION
Respondent.
Quinn-Brintnall, J. -- Since its adoption in 1896, the common enemy doctrine has long
stood for a simple proposition: landowners may dispose of unwanted surface waters in any way
they see fit, without liability for resulting damage to neighboring properties. Although
Washington courts have created exceptions to this common law doctrine, we have never altered
or addressed its basic function as a shield to liability. Petitioner Kim Lord now challenges this
understanding of the common enemy doctrine.
Lord contends that, in addition to shielding a property owner from liability, the doctrine
also allows a landowner to build substantial flood prevention structures without acquiring, or
attempting to acquire, permits as dictated by county and state land use regulations. Specifically,
Lord argues that the common enemy doctrine supersedes the portions of Pierce County Code
No. 41353-1-II
(PCC) Titles 17A and 18E that require developmental permits in critical and flood-prone areas
and that the doctrine justified his permit-less construction of a large, earthen levee. We decline to
expand the scope of the common enemy doctrine and affirm Pierce County's order that Lord
remove the unpermitted levee.
FACTS
Following significant flooding of the Puyallup River in January 2009, Lord sought to
protect his property1 for the upcoming 2009-2010 flood season by constructing an earthen levee.
In July 2009, Lord contacted Michael Vanassa of Garrett Construction about the proposed work.2
Under Lord's supervision, on July 22, Vanassa began clearing brush and debris on the property
from a previous flood and, on August 24, began relocating existing, on-site materials to construct
the levee.
A Pierce County Sheriff's Deputy visited the construction site on September 13 and
advised Vanassa that the construction might be illegal. Although nearly complete, Vanassa
ceased work on the project at that point. Vanassa was unaware that the project required
permitting of any kind. Lord, on the other hand, was aware of permitting requirements, but he
1 The property in question technically belongs to Lord's late wife, Barbara Winde. Lord acted as
the personal representative of her estate throughout the events related to this appeal. No legal
issues are present in this respect but, at times, the record refers to the owner as either Winde or
Lord, or to Lord as the personal representative of Winde's estate.
2 Vanassa is not a professional engineer. He was already familiar with the property having
previously helped Lord build a temporary dike (which failed) during the January 2009 floods.
Vanassa also helped Lord clean up the property after a 2006 flood during which Lord took no
protective actions. Another major flood occurred in 1996, the first to damage the property.
Lord's Federal Emergency Management Agency proof of loss for the January 2009 flood alone
estimated the full cost of repair at over $92,000. Lord estimated flood insurance covered only
half of his losses, though, as it did not provide for damage to outbuildings, streets, garages, or
carports.
2
No. 41353-1-II
thought the levee would be exempt pursuant to emergency exceptions found in Titles 17A and
18E of the PCC. The next day, Lord brought in another contractor who finished the last 15 or 20
feet of the levee project.
On September 14, Pierce County's Service Response System received a complaint
regarding the levee construction. In response, Pierce County Department of Planning and Land
Services (PALS) Development Engineering Inspector Matt Shaw visited the property on
September 17 and posted a stop work order/cease and desist notice at the site. Work on the levee
was complete by that point. In October, PALS sent a correction notice/cease and desist order to
Lord confirming the permitting violations and the "stop work" notice Shaw posted on September
17. The letter stated, in part,
The illegal levee has been constructed in a Regulated Floodway, Title 18E.70.020
(B).2. Per Title 18E.70.040 (B), all structures, filling/grading, and encroachments
are prohibited. Therefore, the levee must be removed, the area restored back to its
pre-developed condition and all removed fill taken to an approved disposal site.
Clerk's Papers at 24 (emphasis omitted). The letter further indicated that a site development
permit would be required, per PCC Title 17A (Ordinance 2008-59S), in order to remove the
illegal levee and that such a plan would need to be prepared by a professional engineer licensed in
the State of Washington. On October 16, Lord timely appealed the correction notice/cease and
desist order pursuant to PCC 1.22.080 and .090.
On March 4, 2010, Pierce County Hearing Examiner Stephen J. Causseaux, Jr. presided
over a public hearing for Lord's appeal. Causseaux delivered his report and decision on April 20.
In his conclusions, he addressed Titles 17A and 18E of the PCC as well as Lord's assertion that
the common enemy doctrine justified the levee construction. In relation to PCC 18E.20.030(I),
3
No. 41353-1-II
the examiner concluded that
[a]ppellant acknowledges that he did not consult with PALS before constructing
his emergency levee, and therefore did not provide PALS the opportunity to
review his actions to include the existence of the emergency and the
reasonableness of the proposed actions. . . . The appellant therefore did not follow
the procedures for an emergency exemption and violated Chapter 18E.20 PCC.
Pierce County therefore properly issued the Stop Work Order and Correction
Notice/Cease and Desist Order dated October 5, 2009.
Administrative Record (AR) at 14. And in conclusion 4, the examiner found that "[w]hile
Subsection B [of PCC 17A.10.050] authorizes emergency projects to protect life or property . . .
the appellant's construction of a significant levee does not comply with either the purpose or
scope of the exemptions set forth in Title 17A." AR at 15. Last, Causseaux concluded that,
"based upon RCW 86.12 and the adoption of flood control regulations by the Pierce County
Council, the Examiner must interpret and enforce said regulations and cannot apply the Common
Enemy Doctrine in a manner to amend or negate such regulations."3 AR at 18-19.
On May 12, Lord appealed the hearing examiner's decision to the Pierce County Superior
Court pursuant to ch. 36.70C RCW, the Land Use Petition Act (LUPA). He argued that both the
administrative action issuing the correction notice/cease and desist order and the hearing
examiner's decisions were in error. On September 29, the superior court issued an order on
Lord's LUPA petition affirming the hearing examiner's decision. Lord timely appeals the hearing
examiner's findings and decision pursuant to RCW 36.70C.130.
DISCUSSION
Standard of Review
3 RCW 86.12.200 provides that the "county legislative authority of any county may adopt a
comprehensive flood control management plan for any drainage basin that is located wholly or
partially within the county."

No. 41353-1-II
LUPA governs judicial review of land use decisions in Washington. HJS Dev., Inc. v.
Pierce County ex rel. Dep't of Planning & Land Servs., 148 Wn.2d 451, 467, 61 P.3d 1141
(2003). When reviewing a land use decision, we stand in the same position as the superior court.
Griffin v. Thurston County, 137 Wn. App. 609, 616, 154 P.3d 296 (2007), aff'd, 165 Wn.2d 50,
196 P.3d 141 (2008). We review the factual record before the hearing examiner, the local
jurisdiction's body or officer in this instance with the highest level of authority to make a
determination concerning land use. See PCC 1.22.140(C) ("All land use decisions of the
Examiner . . . shall constitute the final decision of the [Pierce County] Council and shall be
appealable to a court of competent jurisdiction."); see also Pinecrest Homeowners Ass'n v. Glen
A. Cloninger & Assocs., 151 Wn.2d 279, 288, 87 P.3d 1176 (2004).
Lord, as the LUPA petitioner, carries the burden of establishing that the hearing examiner
erred under at least one of LUPA's six standards of review. See Pinecrest, 151 Wn.2d at 288.
Both parties agree the applicable standards in this instance are
(b) [t]he land use decision is an erroneous interpretation of the law, after
allowing for such deference as is due the construction of a law by a local
jurisdiction with expertise;
. . . .
(d) The land use decision is a clearly erroneous application of the law to
the facts.
RCW 36.70C.130(1). Whether the hearing examiner interpreted the law erroneously is a question
of law we review de novo. Satsop Valley Homeowners Ass'n, Inc. v. Nw. Rock, Inc., 126 Wn.
App. 536, 541, 108 P.3d 1247 (2005). We review whether the hearing examiner misapplied the
law to the facts under the "clearly erroneous" standard -- "'whether [this court is] left with a
definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed.'" City of Federal Way v. Town &

No. 41353-1-II
Common Enemy Doctrine
The central issue here is whether the common enemy doctrine justifies Lord's actions in
building the unpermitted earthen levee. Lord contends that "[w]hile the line of current decisions
upholding the common enemy doctrine have generally been related to issues of liability or inverse
condemnation, there is no case law in this state limiting application of the doctrine to such
situations." Br. of Appellant at 8-9. Lord further contends that, if correctly applied, the common
enemy doctrine would exempt his levee from Pierce County's stormwater drainage infrastructure
and flood hazard area regulations and permitting requirements. Because Washington's common
enemy doctrine serves only as a defense to liability for damaging adjacent properties,4 we affirm.
The common enemy doctrine first appears to have reached American shores in 1841 in the
case of Hooker v. New Haven & Northampton Company, 14 Conn. 146, 1841 WL 343 (1841). In
that case, the Connecticut Supreme Court decided that a canal owner would be liable to a
property owner damaged by excess waters escaping the canal. Hooker, 1841 WL 343, at *10. In
a dissenting opinion, however, Justice Sherman recommended extending the English5 concept of
the sea being a "common enemy" to navigable waterways in the state to avoid the situation where
when any person sustains any damage, however remote or consequential, by any
turnpike road, improvement of the navigation of a river . . . or any other alteration
of the existing state of things, an action will lie. . . . Such a principle is alike
opposed to common sense, common law, and adjudged cases.
4 As inverse condemnation cases address improper government takings and the determination of
whether municipalities or governments are liable to affected property owners, it is reasonable to
classify them as "liability" cases for purposes of this analysis.
5 The English case at issue was Rex v. Comm'rs, (1828) 8 Barn. & C. 355 (K.B.), in which Lord
Tenterden first coined the term "common enemy." We recently discussed the origins of the
common enemy doctrine further in Grundy v. Brack Family Trust, 151 Wn. App. 557, 213 P.3d
619 (2009), review denied, 168 Wn.2d 1007 (2010).

No. 41353-1-II
Hooker, 1841 WL 343, at *17 (citing Lord Kenyon's opinion in The Governor & Co. of the
British Cast Plate Mfrs. v. Meredith, 4 T. R. 794 (1792)).
Washington first adopted the common enemy doctrine in 1896 in Cass v. Dicks, 14 Wash.
75, 44 P. 113 (1896). In Cass, the Washington Supreme Court held that "surface water, caused
by the falling of rain or the melting of snow, and that escaping from running streams and rivers, is
regarded as an outlaw and a common enemy against which anyone may defend himself, even
though by so doing injury may result to others." 14 Wash. at 78 (emphasis added). Importantly,
Cass cemented a fundamental aspect of the common enemy doctrine; namely, that it is a defense
to liability.
Early commentators, current legal works, and innumerable legal opinions confirm this. In
his extensive treatise, The Law of Waters and Water Rights, Henry Philip Farnham explains,
The extent to which the common-enemy doctrine has been carried in some
jurisdictions is well illustrated by the Indiana case of Cairo & V. R. Co. v. Stevens,
where the court held that it may be laid down as a general rule that upon the
boundaries of his own land, not interfering with any natural or prescriptive water
course, an owner may erect such barriers as he may deem necessary to keep off
surface water or overflowing floods coming from or across adjoining lands, and
for any consequent repulsion, turning aside, or heaping up of these waters to the
injury of other lands, he will not be responsible.
Henry Philip Farnham, 3 The Law of Waters and Water Rights, at 2597-98 (The Lawyers' Co-
operative Pub. Co., 1904) (emphasis added; footnote omitted),

6 Farnham, incidentally, claims the "common-enemy rule is not the rule of the common law" but
is, instead, the result of a number of jurisdictions erroneously following an 1875 New Jersey
Supreme Court decision, Union v. Durkes, 38 N.J.L. 21, 22 (1875), which quoted Lord
8
No. 41353-1-II
commentator noted in 1915 in relation to the common enemy doctrine in Massachusetts, a
"private owner has large powers and small liabilities with respect to surface water." Edwin Hale
Abbot, Jr., Ways and Waters in Massachusetts, 28 Harv. L. Rev. 478, 489 (1915). More recently
John W. Johnson writes in United States Water Law: An Introduction that the common enemy
doctrine
[t]reats surface water as a common enemy of all landowners and allows any
necessary diversion to protect one's own property, even if the water ultimately
damages another person's property. Most states that follow this doctrine have
rules requiring landowners to avoid acting in negligence when diverting water
from their lands.
John W. Johnson, United States Water Law: An Introduction, at 90 (CRC Press, 2008)
(emphasis added).
That a landowner may employ the common enemy doctrine solely as a defense to liability
is firmly grounded in Washington case law as well. In Snohomish County v. Postema, 95 Wn.
App. 817, 822, 978 P.2d 1101 (1998), review denied, 139 Wn.2d 1011 (1999), for instance,
Division One of this court refers to seeking "the shield of the common enemy doctrine." And, in
Currens v. Sleek, 138 Wn.2d 858, 866-67, 983 P.2d 626, 993 P.2d 900 (1999), our Supreme
Court is explicit in its liability analysis:
Tenterden's Rex decision in a misleading manner. See Farnham, supra, at 2591-99; see also The
Common Enemy, in 1 Case and Comment 7, at 1-2 (The Lawyers' Co-operative Pub. Co. 1894)
("The rule which regards surface water as a common enemy appears to have originated in
Massachusetts. . . . But the rule is not called the common-law rule in that case which simply
follows the reasoning of prior Massachusetts cases. Text-writers seem to have given it that name
to distinguish it from the rule of the civil law. . . . That the 'common-law' rule as generally
understood is not the rule in England is shown by the note to Gray v. McWilliams, 21 L. R. A.
593."), http://books.google.com/books - id=Mt8oAAAAYAAJ&pg=PT52&dq=Case+and+

No. 41353-1-II
When determining liability under the common enemy doctrine, the due care
exception requires the court to look only to whether the landowner has exercised
due care in improving his or her land, i.e., whether the method employed by the
landowner minimized any unnecessary impacts upon adjacent land. Unlike the
reasonable use rule, a landowner's duty under the common enemy doctrine is not
determined by weighing the nature and importance of the improvements against
the damage caused to one's neighbor. Rather, a landowner has an unqualified
right to embark on any improvements of his or her land allowed by law, but must
limit the harm caused by changes in the flow of surface water to that which is
reasonably necessary.
(Emphasis added.) Even more recently, our Supreme Court discussed "whether the common
enemy doctrine shielded the defendants from liability" in Fitzpatrick v. Okanogan County, 169
Wn.2d 598, 609, 238 P.3d 1129 (2010). In each of the nearly 50 cases where Washington
appellate courts have addressed the common enemy doctrine, issues of liability have been a
fundamental concern.7
Accordingly, because the common enemy doctrine only serves as a defense to liability,
Lord has failed to show that the hearing examiner erroneously interpreted the law. Further,
Lord's contention that the hearing examiner failed to properly apply the common enemy doctrine
to the facts of his case is also without merit. Lord's case has nothing to do with his liability for
diverting flood waters and the common enemy doctrine does not apply.
7 All three judicially created exceptions to the common enemy doctrine relate to liability as well.
The first provides that a landowner who inhibits the flow of a natural watercourse or drainway
may still be held liable for damage to neighboring properties. Island County v. Mackie, 36 Wn.
App. 385, 388, 675 P.2d 607, review denied, 101 Wn.2d 1008 (1984). The second exception
prohibits a landowner from artificially collecting water and then channeling it to their neighbors'
land. Colella v. King County, 72 Wn.2d 386, 390, 433 P.2d 154 (1967). A third exception
requires a property owner to exercise due care in improving his or her land to minimize
unnecessary surface water impacts upon adjacent lands. Currens, 138 Wn.2d at 862.
10
No. 41353-1-II
Permitting Requirements
Lord also contends that ch. 86.12 RCW and the flood control regulations Pierce County
adopted under PCC Titles 17A and 18E do not supersede, abrogate, or eliminate the common
enemy doctrine and, accordingly, the hearing examiner erred in enforcing these regulations
without first applying the common enemy doctrine. But because PCC Titles 17A and 18E relate
to building use and development, not liability, and are in no way repugnant to the common law,
Lord's contention lacks merit.
Lord correctly notes that Washington courts have not abrogated the common enemy
doctrine. In Currens, our Supreme Court explicitly declined to abandon the doctrine as doing so
would be "inconsistent with this state's historic deference to property rights." 138 Wn.2d at 867.
Further, our Supreme Court has held that a "law abrogates the common law when 'the provisions
of a . . . statute are so inconsistent with and repugnant to the prior common law that both cannot
simultaneously be in force.'" Potter v. Wash. State Patrol, 165 Wn.2d 67, 77, 196 P.3d 691
(2008) (quoting State ex rel. Madden v. Pub. Util. Dist. No. 1, 83 Wn.2d 219, 222, 517 P.2d 585
(1973), cert. denied, 419 U.S. 808 (1974)). Lord is incorrect, however, in asserting that the
statutes in question are in any way repugnant to the common enemy doctrine.
RCW 86.12.200 provides that counties may adopt a "comprehensive flood control
management plan" that establishes "land use regulations that preclude the location of structures,
works, or improvements in critical portions of such areas subject to periodic flooding." RCW
86.12.200(3). Pierce County has created a number of ordinances, including PCC Titles 17A and
18E, to effectuate its comprehensive flood management plan. PCC Title 17A, entitled
"Construction and Infrastructure Regulations -- Site Development and Stormwater Drainage,"
11
No. 41353-1-II
states,
Unless fully exempt from these Regulations, no person, party, firm, corporation, or
entity shall do any grading, filling, clearing, excavating, or ditching, or alter a
drainage course, or alter an approved stormwater drainage system, or create an
impervious surface, or any development or redevelopment activity unless the work
is in accordance with a valid site development permit from the County issued
pursuant to the provisions of these Regulations.
PCC 17A.10.070.B(1). PCC Title 18E, the portion of the PCC devoted to developmental
regulations in "critical areas" (like floodways), provides,
A. Unless the requirements of this Title are met, Pierce County shall not grant
any approval or permission to alter the condition of any land, water, or
vegetation, or to construct or alter any structure or improvement regulated
through the following: building permit, commercial or residential; binding
site plan . . . or any subsequently adopted permit or required approval not
expressly exempted by this Chapter.
B. The following activities are regulated within critical fish and wildlife habitat
areas, wetlands, aquifer recharge areas, landslide hazard areas, erosion
hazard areas, flood hazard areas, and/or their buffers unless exempted. . . .
1. Removing, excavating, disturbing, or dredging soil, sand, gravel,
minerals, organic matter, or materials of any kind;
. . . .
5. Constructing, reconstructing, demolishing, or altering the size of
any structure or infrastructure;
6. Altering the character of a regulated area by destroying or altering
vegetation through clearing, harvesting, [or] cutting. . . .
. . . .
10. The creation of impervious surfaces.
PCC 18E.20.020 (emphasis added).
Both ordinances relate to land use permitting and both derive authority from the
Washington legislature. RCW 86.12.200. Neither ordinance relates to liability or, specifically, to
emergencies. Pierce County has not abrogated the common enemy doctrine in adopting these
ordinances. When confronted with imminent flooding, property owners may still rely on this
state's common enemy jurisprudence to shield them from liability if their temporary flood
12
No. 41353-1-II
abatement measures damage the property of others. See, e.g., Halverson v. Skagit County, 139
Wn.2d 1, 14, 983 P.2d 643 (1999). When opting to build substantial structures in floodplains,
however, property owners must comply with permitting requirements. This idea is not new.
While discussing the "due care" exception to the common enemy doctrine, the Currens court, for
instance, explained that
[w]hat this means in practical terms is that landowners may improve their land with
impunity (subject to local land use and permitting requirements) and are not liable
for damage . . . so long as the landowners act in good faith and do not damage
adjacent property in excess of that called for by the particular project.
138 Wn.2d at 864 (emphasis added).
In arguing for unbridled discretion in protecting his property and/or building on it, Lord
does not appear to be arguing for application of the common enemy doctrine. Instead, his
arguments are focused on a return to the ancient common law doctrine of cujus est solum ejus est
usque ad coelum ("[t]he person who owns the soil owns up to the sky"8). But in 1946, the
United States Supreme Court abrogated this doctrine, declaring, "It is ancient doctrine that at
common law ownership of the land extended to the periphery of the universe -- Cujus est solum
ejus est usque ad coelum. But that doctrine has no place in the modern world." United States v.
Causby, 328 U.S. 256, 260-261, 66 S. Ct. 1062, 90 L. Ed. 1206 (1946) (footnote omitted); see
also Cheskov v. Port of Seattle, 55 Wn.2d 416, 348 P.2d 673 (1960). The common enemy
doctrine never had so broad a scope. Even the Cass court in 1896 stressed,
If one in the lawful exercise of his right to control, manage or improve his
own land, finds it necessary to protect it from surface water flowing from higher
land, he may do so and if damage thereby results to another, it is damnum absque
injuria. . . .
. . . .
. . . The respondents have done no illegal act and therefore ought not to be
8 Black's Law Dictionary 1824 (9th ed. 2009).
13
No. 41353-1-II
compelled to undo what they have done at great expense and as a means of self-
protection.
14 Wash. at 78, 82 (emphasis added). Here Lord, unlike the defendants in Cass, performed an
illegal act by constructing an unpermitted levee in violation of Pierce County's flood control
regulations.
Accordingly, because Pierce County's flood control regulations relate to authorized land
use permitting and do not abrogate or amend the common enemy doctrine, Lord has failed to
show that the hearing examiner erroneously interpreted the law.
Permitting Exemptions
Last, Lord contends that the hearing examiner misapplied the permitting exemptions of
PCC Titles 17A and 18E to the facts of this case. In his opening brief, Lords states that he
appealed the correction notice/cease and desist order because his actions were "allowed under the
PCC as an exemption under PCC 17A.10.050(B) and 18E.20.030(1)." Br. of Appellant at 6. He
also claims that "[t]here was no evidence presented to the Hearing Examiner to indicate [his]
actions . . . were not proper or prudent under the circumstances. There was substantial evidence
that his actions were prudent." Br. of Appellant at 8. This is the extent to which Lord argues this
issue on appeal. He provides no legal support or justification showing how PCC 17A.10.050(B)
and 18E.20.030(I) permitted construction of his levee or why the hearing examiner erred in
refusing to so find. RAP 10.3(a) ("The brief of the appellant or petitioner should contain . . . (6)
[t]he argument in support of the issues presented for review, together with citations to legal
authority and references to relevant parts of the record."). Accordingly, we do not address this
issue further as we do not consider arguments unsupported by citation to relevant authority.

No. 41353-1-II
Cowiche Canyon Conservancy v. Bosley, 118 Wn.2d 801, 809, 828 P.2d 549 (1992).
Because the common enemy doctrine does not exempt a landowner from permitting
requirements when permanently constructing major projects in critical and flood-prone areas, we
affirm Pierce County's order that Lord remove the unpermitted levee.
