In any monitored year, naturally occurring native species shall count toward the overall percent co-terage of native species. 7.3.2 WILDLIFE HABITAT During each monitoring visit, the presence of any wildlife using the site should be noted. 7.4 MONITORING PROTOCOL This mitigation project will be monitored fo approval of the installed plan. Monitoring wetland professional or other qualified person. 7.4.1 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS r three -years following completion and will be conducted by the contracted After the mitigation plantings are installed, the contracted biologist will prepare a compliance report. During this site visit, monitoring points will be established as appropriate. These will be used throughout the three-year monitoring period. Plant survival shall be measured during the first two years of monitoring. Points will be established at the top of slope to limited the traffic on the slope. The percentage of plant survival will be derived by subtracting the number of missing or dead plants from the number of plants that were recorded from the points during the initial visit to assess plan compliance. Plant survival observed from the monitoring point is assumed to be representative of the entire site. In addition, a visual inspection of the entire mitigation area shall be conducted to assess any high mortality areas not represented by the points. If one or more of the planted species exhibit a high rate of mortality and are deemed inappropriate for the site, a substitution n ay be recommended by the consulting biologist. 7.4.2 SAMPLING METHODS - PLANT SURVIVAL To provide cover values, the Braun-Blanquet Cover Abundance Scale will be used. Cover is defined as "the vertical crown or shoot -area projection per species in the plot" (Mueller-Dombois et at., 1974). The cover values ratings to be used are as follows: • Any species with cover more than 3/4 of the reference area (75%) • Any species with 1 /2 - 3/4 cover (50% - 75%) • Any species with 1 /4 - 1 /2 cover (25% - 50%) • Any species with 1 /20 - 114 cover (5% - 25%) • Any species with less than 1 /20 cover (5%) Wetland Resources, Inc. 10 Anderson SFR - Restoration Pion WRI # 09126
