Monitoring plan references several protocols, each with specific monitored indicators. See RMRS-GTR-47:"Monitoring the Vegetation Resources in Riparian Areas" (Winward, 2000)., TR 1734-3: "Utilization Studies"(1999), TR 1734-4 "Sampling Vegetation Attributes", TR 1737-15: "Riparian Area Management: A User Guide to Assessing Proper Functioning Condition and the Supporting Science for Lotic Areas" (1998), TR 1737-16: "Riparian Area Management: A User Guide to Assessing the Proper Functioning Condition and the Supporting Science for Lentic Areas" (1999/2003), and TR 1737-23 "Riparian area management: Multiple indicator monitoring (MIM) of stream channels and streamside vegetation" (2011) |

Riparian/Wetland Condition Assessment |
Qualitative observations of hydrology, vegetation, and erosion/deposition (soils) attributes (see pg. 63 of protocol). 17 physical attributes are assessed on the Lotic form and 20 on the Lentic form. They are answered in a Yes/No/Not Applicable format. Notes addressing each attribute can be included on the form. At the end of the form a summary rating for the stream or wetland is given as Proper Functioning, Functioning at-Risk, or Non Functioning. If Functioning at-Risk, an apparent trend assessed as Upward, Downward or not Apparent. The individual technical references can be used to identify all of the attributes. Note: For PFC assessments there are two technical references. One is for Lotic (moving water) riparian areas and the other is for Lentic (standing water or wetland) riparian areas. |
