M � • Wetland name or number A WDFW Priority Habitats Priority habitats listed by WDFW(see complete descriptions of WDFW priority habitats,and the counties in which they can be found,in: Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.2008. Priority Habitat and Species List Olympia,Washington. 177 pp.http://wdfw.wa.gov/publications/00165/wdfw00165.pdf or access the list from here: http://wdfw.wa.gov/conservation/phs/list/) Count how many of the following priority habitats are within 330 ft(100 m)of the wetland unit: NOTE: This question is independent of the land use between the wetland unit and the priority habitat nAspen Stands: Pure or mixed stands of aspen greater than 1 ac(0.4 ha). nBiodiversity Areas and Corridors: Areas of habitat that are relatively important to various species of native fish and wildlife(full descriptions in WDFW PHS report). nHerbaceous Balds: Variable size patches of grass and forbs on shallow soils over bedrock. nOld-growth/Mature forests: Old-growth west of Cascade crest-Stands of at least 2 tree species,forming a multi- layered canopy with occasional small openings;with at least 8 trees/ac(20 trees/ha)>32 in(81 cm)dbh or>200 years of age.Mature forests-Stands with average diameters exceeding 21 in(53 cm) dbh; crown cover may be less than 100%;decay,decadence,numbers of snags,and quantity of large downed material is generally less than that found in old-growth;80-200 years old west of the Cascade crest QOregon White Oak: Woodland stands of pure oak or oak/conifer associations where canopy coverage of the oak component is important(full descriptions in WDFW PHS report p.158-see web link above). nRiparian: The area adjacent to aquatic systems with flowing water that contains elements of both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems which mutually influence each other. nWestside Prairies: Herbaceous,non-forested plant communities that can either take the form of a dry prairie or a wet prairie(full descriptions in WDFW PHS report p.161 -see web link above). Instream: The combination of physical,biological,and chemical processes and conditions that interact to provide functional life history requirements for instream fish and wildlife resources. Nearshore: Relatively undisturbed nearshore habitats. These include Coastal Nearshore,Open Coast Nearshore,and Puget Sound Nearshore.(full descriptions of habitats and the definition of relatively undisturbed are in WDFW report- see web link on previous page). nCaves: A naturally occurring cavity,recess,void,or system of interconnected passages under the earth in soils,rock, ice,or other geological formations and is large enough to contain a human. n Cliffs: Greater than 25 ft(7.6 m)high and occurring below 5000 ft elevation. nTalus:Homogenous areas of rock rubble ranging in average size 0.5-6.5 ft(0.15-2.0 m),composed of basalt,andesite, and/or sedimentary rock,including riprap slides and mine tailings.May be associated with cliffs. nSnags and Logs: Trees are considered snags if they are dead or dying and exhibit sufficient decay characteristics to enable cavity excavation/use by wildlife.Priority snags have a diameter at breast height of>20 in(51 cm)in western Washington and are>6.5 ft(2 m)in height Priority logs are> 12 in(30 cm)in diameter at the largest end,and> 20 ft (6 m)long. Note:All vegetated wetlands are by definition a priority habitat but are not included in this list because they are addressed elsewhere.
