• overexcavauon and removal of surficial soils in the azea of the horse wrral adjacent to the <br /> miagadon azea to mitigate for prior potential nitratelnitrite pollutant entry into the wetlands, <br /> • retenuon of existing upland to create an island along the south side of the mitiga6on azea, <br /> • initial removal and subsequent control of invasive plant species such as purple loosestrife, <br /> reed canazygrass and Himalayan blackberry, <br /> • protecfion of downstream watec quality through use and monitoring of approved temporary � <br /> erosion and sedimentauon control measures during all construcaon acdvities and <br /> • maintenance and preserva6on of wedand funcdonal values of the existing and through <br /> retention of minimum 25 foot buffers around retained and created weUands. <br /> 3.3 Construction Plan <br /> Two miaga6on sub-ueas will be created on the northeastem and southeastern margins of Wefland <br /> E, approximately 11,120 and 1,500 square feetrespectively. <br /> The Wetland Mitigauon PlanUng Plan (Figure 2, attached) cons6tutes a Construc6on Pian which <br /> specifies requirements for excavation, drainage,materials stockpiling, soil replacement, plandng and <br /> maintenance of wetland hydrology. Implementation of this plan will require the on-going <br /> professional assistance of a weUand biologist who is 1) experienced in management of the creafion <br /> of wedands and the relaaonship of the range of weUand plant species to varied hydrologic regimes, <br /> 2) abie to adjust construction plans and direct consWction activides on-site in response to specific <br /> unforseen site conditions which may be revealed during construction, and most importanfly> 3) <br /> supervision of construction to ensure adherence to the intent, goals and specifications of the <br /> mi6gation plan. The project biologist may be retained to assist the appiicant and its representa6ve <br /> in evaluaaon of contractors, and will make Field changes to the design as required, including <br /> authorizing plant subsdtuaons and using contractor-supplied construcflon survey equipment to verify <br /> staking of design water level contours prior to planting. <br /> A well-coordinated and stepwise program under the overail supervision of the project biologist will <br /> be required for successful implementafion of the planned miugation, including the following eight <br /> step program: 1) pre-construction mee6ng, 2) staking of e::cava8on, miagation and restoration <br /> boundazies, 3)installation of temporary erosion and sedimentation control measures, 4)cleazing and <br /> grubbing; grading and over-excavaaon of mitigation area; stockpiling of topsoil and wedand soil <br /> materials and contained rootstock and seedstock, 5) replacement of soil materials in appropriate <br /> ueas, hand seeding and hydromulching, 6) establishment of hydraulic regime, 7) installation of all <br /> plant materials and satisfaction of post-pianting requirements and 8) post-construcflon meeting. <br /> In a111ikeGhood,conswction of the mitiga6on/restoration area will begin in the early to late summer <br /> of 1994, with site preparation, grading and excavation, soils placement and hydromulching. <br /> Mu.h'lteo Sch.
