• <br /> c. Water runoff(including stormwater): <br /> 1) Describe the source of runoff(including storm water)and method of collection <br /> and disposal,if any(include quantities, if known).Where will this water flow? <br /> Will this water flow into other waters? If so,describe. <br /> Water currently seeps into the soils or flows into the drainage ditches that run east-west <br /> across the property.These drainage ditches flow into the Marshland Canal,which connects <br /> to the Snohomish River. Post-Project runoff conditions will be similar to previous and <br /> existing conditions. <br /> 2) Could waste materials enter ground or surface waters? If so, generally <br /> describe. <br /> Materials from accidental spills associated with construction of the proposed restoration <br /> activities could potentially occur but will be avoided or minimized through implementation of <br /> best management practices(BMPs). <br /> 3) Does the proposal alter or otherwise affect drainage patterns in the vicinity of <br /> the site?If so,describe. <br /> The Project includes rerouting drainage ditches as described previously. <br /> d. Proposed measures to reduce or control surface,ground,and runoff water,and <br /> drainage pattern impacts,if any: <br /> Restoration activities are proposed to control erosion and improve flow management within <br /> the drainage ditches previously modified by the Project.These measures are expected to <br /> reduce and control impacts to surface,ground, and runoff water, as well as drainage <br /> patterns within the Project area. <br /> 4. Plants jhelpl <br /> a. Check the types of vegetation found on the site: <br /> _x_deciduous tree: alder, maple,aspen,other <br /> evergreen tree: fir, cedar,pine,other <br /> x_shrubs <br /> _x_g rass <br /> pasture <br /> _x_crop or grain <br /> Orchards,vineyards or other permanent crops. <br /> _x_wet soil plants: cattail,buttercup, bullrush,skunk cabbage,other <br /> water plants: water lily,eelgrass, milfoil,other <br /> other types of vegetation <br /> The majority of the site is covered with some volunteer vegetation and blueberry <br /> plants, as blueberry production is the primary use of the property.Any plants that grow <br /> within the raised rows of blueberries are regularly removed by hand.Vegetation is <br /> allowed to grow on the remainder of the site and is mowed as needed.Additional <br /> vegetation is mainly found at the property boundaries and alongside of and within the <br /> existing drainage ditches. Common plant species in, on the banks, and immediately <br /> adjacent to the ditches include common rush (Juncus effusus), creeping buttercup <br /> (Ranunculus repens),Himalayan blackberry(Rubus armeniacus), reed canarygrass <br /> (Phalaris arundinacea),yellowrocket(Barbarea vulgaris), red clover(Trifolium <br /> pretense),white clover(T. repens), annual bluegrass(Poa annua), horsetail <br /> 8 <br />
