04. Updated Forest Mitigation Agreement with the Metro Flood Diversion Authority

17 information about invasive species, seedling survival following planting, seedling density, and diversity of herbaceous and woody species. Subsequent mandatory reports shall include the same information except for seedling survival information and be submitted on or before December 31st for years two, three, six, and ten (total of five reports). Additional reports will be required every five years until the functional value of the forest mitigation can demonstrate that it has replaced that of the forest impacted by the FMM Project. Monitoring reports shall contain the following information and any additional information necessary to evaluate the performance of the reforestation site: 1. Name of party responsible for conducting the monitoring and the date(s) the inspection was conducted. 2. A brief paragraph describing the mitigation acreage and type of resources authorized to compensate for the impacts. 3. Written description of the location of the compensatory mitigation project including information to locate the site perimeter(s), and coordinates of the mitigation site (expressed as latitude, longitude, UTMs, state plane coordinate system, etc.) 4. Dates the compensatory mitigation project commenced and/or was completed. 5. Short statement on whether the performance standards are being met. 6. Summary data, including percent cover of invasive species, species diversity of herbaceous and woody species, and seedling densities. 7. Mandatory set points for photos to provide visual documentation of changes and growth over time. 8. Maps showing the location of the reforestation site relative to other landscape features, habitat types, locations of photographic reference points, transects, sampling data points, and/or other features pertinent to the mitigation plan. 9. A summary of the amounts and type of habitat restored, enhanced, and created at the site. 10. Dates of any recent corrective or maintenance activities conducted since the previous report submission. 11. Specific recommendations for any additional corrective or remedial actions. 7.3 Performance Standards The results of monitoring will be compared to the performance standards to evaluate the effectiveness of the mitigation and determine if additional planting or maintenance measures are necessary. Performance standards are survivorship and functionally based, whereas each forest strategy must develop into a representative community that is sufficient in density and diversity to provide the intended habitat function. 7.3.1 Bank Stabilization Bank stabilization sites must meet 80% survivorship of woody vegetation at the end of the monitoring period and provide adequate ground coverage to hold stream banks from further
