The plots were located based on a representative sample of the entire area of disturbance. They are scattered throughout the Project Site in order to cover the majority of the habitat variations. Vegetation Plots #1, #2 and #4 are related to stream and buffer mitigation credit and occur within the 50-foot buffer of the channel. Vegetation Plot #3 is outside of the 50-foot zone and falls under either buffer mitigation credit or Nutrient Offset Nitrogen Reduction credit. A total of two supplemental plantings were conducted at the Brock site. In March 2013, an additional 840 containerized hardwood trees were installed due to low vigor. In March 2014, an additional 50 bareroot hardwood trees were installed due to a minor landowner encroachment. The chart below provides a summary of the vegetation counts within plots as of March 2014. All vegetation plots met the success criteria required for buffer mitigation or Nutrient Offset Nitrogen credit, as well as the success criteria for stream mitigation credit.
