Notes and Sketches, etc
Invasives- phrag, multiflora, cattail, wisteria, lespedeza, sweetgum,
Preservation HW - photos of flow in March, currently dry (soil saturated,
some standing water, wrack line), reference reach, buffer 100', defined
accredulations on LiDAR to determine stream vs wetland, wetland area -
standing water & OBL veg & herps, connects to creek to southwest (culvert
road crossing backwater?),
UT -10 —400' ditch/channel, all herb veg, has topo, has hydric soil;
UT -4 preservation area appears to have a channel (possibly dug - straight)
within wetland,
UT -4 near top water in channel, maybe impoundment source or
groundwater? Planted with corn, like the additional buffer!
UT -5 flow concerns, ditch appears filled in, hydric soil,
UT2 top - water present, raising bed?
UT1 &2 bottom - nice wetland / large cypress & willows (minus cattail &
phrag ), impindament holding back water, concern about impact - temp &
permanent - current wetland is high functioning system,
Gauges on all restoration reaches - discussion on flowing vs standing
water
Mac - concern about fragmentation, but like additional areas captured
"fingers" in preservation,
HW design - starter channel & add wood (from offsite),
Crossings- keeping all crossings between restoration & preservation
reaches, All crossings have duckbill risers,
More marsh treatments planned
JD not yet done, will be critical - Kyle & Anthony
Phrag will be an issue during maintenance!
Watts - reference
